[Special Corrwpondnree of tba Phlla. Kron’* Ballotln.J Habbisbcro, April 7.— Harrisburg, to-night, presents a deserted appearance, the legislators, having departed with their baggage, etc., for . their homes. Tho residents of this place breathe freer, and during tile evening a num ber of ladies—who have for the past three months been compelled to beep withindoors, ■ by reason of the presence of men who have been guilty of thieving and roguery in every shape, and, consequently, who would not hesi- j tatc to insult a woman—made their appearance upon the principal thoroughfares, and seemed to enjoy the. fresh breeze which has, been I blowingstiffly from the northwest,since the de parture of afternoon trains for the eastern and western portion of the State. These fellows, who were sent here for retrenthment and re- I form, have- left after having, if not actually I accomplished, attempted more villainy than has ever been known before. What they have done cannet bo ascertained for sometime yet, ha tbe journal of the proceedings will not I be completed until away late in the summer ; but your correspondent hopes to be able to in form the people of Philadelphia of the part [ taken by her representatives in the proceedings, prior to the meeting of the nominating conventions in Jane next. About one-fourth of the legislation I has originated with the Philadelphia delega tion, and as very much of it has been rushed through during the period when bilLs were I passed by their titles, it is impossible at this | time to state the nature of the provisions of J at least one-third of the total credited to the City of Brotherly Love. The proposed record I which it is proposed to publish will be given tor the purpose of allowing tbe voters of that city to form their own opinion as to whether their representatives have been faithfully Serving their interests. 1 be Bejertlon of Col. McFarland. The rejection of Colonel George* F. Mcl arland by the Senate has treated considerable surprise among tbe officials on the Hill, and no one has expressed greater sur prise than the Colonel himself. Though he had expected slight opposition, he had no reason to believe that his name would be rejected at all, let alone by such a heavy rote. Tbe department over which he presided has been, for a year or two past, the subject of much comment. Charges of maladmintstra , tion, etc., were made and finally official notice was taken of it by the Senate. A Committee of investigation was appointed, and after a thorough examination a reportwassubwitted, completely exonerating Col. McFarland. Hardly Irad tills report been accepted by the Senate than disagreeable rumors affecting the private character of tbe Colonel were ll circulated. These he not only denied, ”but took every occasion to exhibit, in detail, his pecuniary condition: Among those who have expressed their indignation at this action of the Senate Is the Governor, who has been visited by many of the friends of Col. 3lcFar land, and importuned not to make another nomination at this time, but to wait until the adjournment, and then re-appoint Col McFarland. This will, in all probability, be the case, as an act of justice to an officer who has evidently been unfairly,if not cruelly .dealt 1 with. Senator Lowry and tbe Diamond-Watt '■ • ! Contest, Tlie actio? of Senator Lowrv in signing the majority report of the Committee..in tiie Diamond-Watt cout&it has bucu Uio priuoipa subject of. comment, for the past twenty-four hours. His course .during the entire siftin'* of the Committee had been one that favored Mr. Diamond, and at its final session he voted with the Democrats. After the announcement of the result of the investigation had been made public, Senator Lowry expressed con siderable anxiety to have the Committee reconvene for the purpose of printing another report, the effect of which,if appro vetf would be to have another election in the First senatorial District. Messrs. Graham, "Warfel Brooke and Kerr refused to hold another meeting. He then expressed a desire, to peruse the majority report, which, on its completion, was handed him,and be immediately appended his name,the second on the list. This fact was in an instant known to everybody on the hill. All sorts of stories were then circulated as to what had induced the Senator from Erie to make such a sudden change in liis! opinion within an hour, and the onbthat seemed to bo generally believed was that he wanted to be placed in a correct position with his political lriends at home. He has announced himself as a candidate for re-election, and as his name has been associated throughout this session with the most corrupt measures, it is argued that he is desirous of closing his record with some act Which would overshadow all liis pre vious alleged misconduct. Pamphlets and newspaper articles have been, very thoroughly distributed through his district by his ene mies, and he has just sent through the mails fifteen thousand copies of a senes of letters, which a Philadelphia evening newspaper .started to publish, hut which, after the pro duction of the fifth letter, suddenly notified t the feenator that the paper had no more room j for 1m productions. The Senator feels very jnuch aggrieved at this treatment, and does not hesitate to say that some improper influ ences had been brought to bear upon the pub lisher, who held an, indemnification bond of *lOO,OOO against suit fpr libel or damages. Petty iliejtfslatlve Roguery. The example of selling positions having been set by Congressmen, it is not to be won dered at ifoitr legislators do the same thing. Theso gentlemen have been accused of eor ruption of all kinds, but it was not dreamed that they would be guilty of such an offence as disposing of the position of .paster and tolder for a pecuniary'consideration. Yetsuch has'been proved to the satisfaction of a num ber of gentlemen within a day or two. This post brings but the miserable pittance of.$(100, yet two cases • have come to light where one was sold for SfiOO 'and the .other dor,,- *2OO. In the latter in stance, the member actually -received the pre-. mium before his appointment, a resident of his district, took his place. In the former, fortu nately tor the appointee, the knowledge of the' transaction reached the ears of the Treasury othcials, and they prevented the poor fellow robbedof one-half of his earnings. Had tliese matters been known at an earlier day.there.is no doubt that the attention Of the Legislature would have.been called to them and an investigation would have been the con’ sequence. This subject deserved an examina tion, and had it taken place,' two;spats .in the’ House at least would have ■'been' Vacated' PHILADELPHIA, FRIDAY, APRIL 8,1870.

THE BED BITER WAR. Arrival or jtr. Melinite at Milwaukee— Bis Statement of His Escape and trie Ueneral Aspect of Affairs. ■ f From the Miiwaake* Wtaconiin, April 4.] Yesterday morning Dr. Schultz, who has figured conspicuously in • the Red River troubles, and for whose head Riel has oflered a handsome sum. arrived in this city from the iied River, accompanied by Joseph Monk man, a half-breed. The doctor is on the way to Ottawa, Canada, where he will remain un ui the troubles end or the insurgents are brought to time. Dr. Schultz is a Norwegian, who went Into the Bed River country some years ago and established a trading post at .tort Garry. He accumulated a handsome property, and at the time of the insurrection lit' had.stores belonging to the Government valued at SIXI,OOO, in his hands. As the Doctor has suffered severely at the hands of the inhale itants it is not to be supposed that he gives a very flattering report of them or their pros pects. He says that they number only some •AH) men, and the cause of the revolt is a mys tery to all. That they did not like the idea of becoming a part of the dominion of Canada is one reason of the trouble, and that they de sired to become a part of the United States is' another. The doctor says that an Irish school master, named Donohue, has done no little to wards stirring up the troubles. Donohue is a b email, and he urged upon the half breeds to resist to the last annexation to the Dominion and to strike for annexation to the States! winch would protect them. The doctor says: that Donohue informed the insurgents that if they joined Canada the Fenians from the' btates would come in and burn their houses M cTavish, too, did much to stir up the re vo t - He YUS aogry at being superseded as Governor by McDougall and did ah he could. , to' aid the insurgents. There' were some 700 English and Scotch people on nosed to the revolt. McDougall authorized Colonel Dennis to organize these people into a regiment. Over 700 signed the roll of the regiment and they were ordered to rendezvous at upper Fort Garry. Of the 700 only 40 came to time, the doctor giving as a reason that they were afraid to do so. These 40 were ordered to Dr. Schultz’s store to protect it and the gov ernment property. While here they were sur rounded by several hundred of the insurgents under Riel, who demanded their surrender. Ihey had only a dozen guns to protect the house, and the party surrendered. They were taken to the stone fort and confined. Here ' they determined to make an attempt to escape they managed to get open a window of the fort and twelve , escaped,' the ruse being discovered just as the thirteenth was getting out. He was captured. Of the twelve seven were captured arid’ taken Lack; the doctor and four others, escaafed.v Scott, who some days since was shot by Riel escaped with the party, but was recaptured! Kiel asserts that, Scott twice broke his .parole ' but Dr. Schultz declares this is not true, Scott was condemned by a court-martial,■ arid' our informant says he died because Riel felt a per sonal dislike for him. Dr. Schultz came out of tbe iort on a rope made from the butfaio robe on which he slept. When within fourteen feet ol the ground the fastening broke and he fell, receiving, injuries which' rendered liis subsequent long snow-shoe journey oue of ti rta tf ; higue and almost constant suffer ing; - Tho doetpr remained in the lower and loyal portion of-the settlement till his pro perty was confiscated and taken to Fort Garry and till he had assisted in the movement " Inch compelled Itiel to release tho remainifig prisoners. When the force gathered for thte purpose dispersed Reil was verynnxious to unit Dr. Schultz, and was reported to have sent squads of horsemen in pursuit of him with orders to take hiui dead or alive, and to have offered a reward for his capture. The trip was made in nineteen traveling days, and the route was exceedingly crooked, owing to the following of Indian trails and the want of a periect knowledge of the country by the guides. The distance traversed he estimates ®J” : . miles. The doctor appears to think the rebellion is about at an end Dr. Schultz speaks in the most flattering tefins ol tho Red River country as a grain producing region. He says that he never saw in Canada wheat that approached that crown there. The climate is .good, and the country: m the hands of men who knowhow to use it will become a wealthy one. .

Arrival #i the Funeral Train at Trov ' ArrauKHßßuta for the Otaeqnlm f*. Titov, April 7.—Tho funeral cortege arrived here at ten o’clock this morning, and 1 -was met at the depot by several committees and an immense concourse of people. Ho formal reception , was given, all coromonies being J'estjioucd u.ntil to-morrow. A strong patrol of policemen were at the depot, and preserved admirable order. A, short time after the ar rival of the train the casket waA’ taken, out of the box, and removed to St. Paul’s Chufch, where the funeral services will be held. The casket is of metal, colored to represent rose wood, and a plate en the lid has the following inscription: , . , GBOBGEHENBrTHOtC*S,U,S.A., ■ Born July 31,1816. . . Died March 20, 1870. 1 It required the united strength of ten men to raise the casket out of the box, and'convey itto the hearse in waiting outside the depot. The military escort and the committees of the. Troy Common.C.ouncii, formingindoubiefile, followed the hearse to the church, where the coffin was deposited; upon a platform erected in the inner vestibule, where the body will lie in state Until 10 o’clock to-night, all whp desire being permitted to enter until that time, after which the church will be closed, and remain bo until shortly before the funeral services. : The church is very beautifully decorated 'with. American colors and mourning emblems., The outer vestibule is iiuog.wjthcolors draped with crape, as is also the inner vestibule/ where the remains are placed. The pulpit, reading desk, and chancel railing are covered with heavy folds of black cloth. The front of the organ gallery is also draped in black, the folds being held in place by silver stare. To morrow the interior of the church will be beautifully festooned with flowers and ever greens. Major-General Carr arrived from Chicago this morning, and will assume command to morrow of all the details of the procession. The arrangements will be decided to-night, and will be on a very extensive scale. A vast concourse of people is expected. The detach ments of regular troops from New York and "West Point will arrive by boat in the morn ing. Gen. Sheridan left for Philadelphia this afternoon, where he had a previous engage ment to attend a complimentary dinner ten dered him by the officers of the Sixth Pennsyl vania Cavalry. . Gen. Sherman arrived at 4 o’clock this after noon, and is the gnest of Hon. George B. War ren. The different hotels are all overflowing with guests, beds being spread on .the floors, and yet private hospitality is considerably taxed to meet the necessary demand for shel ter. Gen. Pitcher, of West Point, arrived dur ing the evening. Gen. Stewart L. Woodford, the orator, was in town to-day. He is stopping at tbcDelavan House, Albany. The State Sen ate and Assembly will come up in a body in a special train to-morrow. ' . Despatches from all the posts of the Grand Army ef the Republic in this vicinity, and from many miiltaryand civil organizations, announce their intention of participating in - ,tbe last rites. It is 'expected, that business generally will be suspended to-morrow until the funeral services are concluded. This noon the doors of St. Paul’s Church , were opened, and a vast crowd passed into tba sontb, door, passing around the coffin, and •emerging through the front door. It has been .decided not to have the remains exposed, as the long jburney and' constant jarring of the body have caused partial decomposition. A companyof the Ordnance Corps from Water-' vliet Arsenal, stand guard around the body, some of whom are veterans of Nashville and ' Chickamauga. They pace up and down in silence, and the visitorsjrtass in anti out noise lessly and reverently. The great space in the body of the church is unhghted. and the dim lightfrom one candelabra indiijtinctly re veals theheavymourningdecbrationsabont the pulpit and galleries, hanging pall-like every where. A detachment of police without quietly directs the ingress ana egress of visi tors. Thus far nothing has occurred to disturb the perfect decorate of the occasion. ' - The sable bier which supported the remains of the iate'Hsnor-General Wool holds the last relic of the “ Bock of Chickamauga.” It is neatly cushioned, and elegantly draped with bunting. A magnificent silken, flag was placed upon the coflin by some ladies, and its rich fpids fall gracefully to the floor. Tastily festoofied,about the edges is,a rich 'wreath of , immortelles, Which were thus arranged in San Francisco;- add hotwitlistanding the long journey Are still'fragrant, although somewhat withered. Twining about; are : other wreaths ot ivy and laurel. In the centre is a magnifk cent floral crown, surmounted by a splendid cross of., japopicas, liliepysose*,, iriwaortefles, and other flowers. On a card attached is the following inscription: “From the ladies! Moluiers’ Aid Society. Cleveland.” At. the head of the casket i& a'iMthiuT likeness of the departed, and the hero’s regular service sword is laid over his breast. It is very plain, the handle alone being modestly ornamented with designs inigold, v, ‘ The Presidential party is 1 expected to arrive on the midnight train, and will bo,entertained bv the Hon. J..M.

There is inNew Hampshire a law by which all persons are forbidden to take fish from the through.the ice in winter, and fish-war dens are chosen m each town to see that this Jaw is efaforfied, The penalty is ten dolfai-s for each offence. Among those who recently broke it, to his cost; waa'a-gentiemam who had rep- : resented his town in the Legislature- of, the' State, and had assisted in making the very law that he transgr'essed. With three fridads he started the other day to try his luck. The' Lowell Courier'thus givea the sequel: ‘‘The tour sportsmen, jogged on to,their goal, merry with the thought of a good day’s work; little anticipating the storm that was brewing in the rear. , The day was all a Sports man could wish. Arriving at a pond, a very short time sufficed to cut the holes, bait the lines, 1 and try their luck,' Soon hfter these' .things .Were arranged, the (all‘line down’ came so frequent that all four had as much as they could do to. pull up the fish, bait anew and,adjust the signals. Time passes swiftly when people are busy, and nothing bnt the de mands of hunger will lead any one to give up such animating sport. At noon they had laid up forty-seven as handsome pickerel as an amateur would desire to see. while they were taking their lunch at noon, jubilant over their morning’s work, who should appear in sight but- the Francestown fish warden and his twelve, hard-fisted backers. Marching up to the sportsmen in a solid phalanx, the warden addressed the transgressors: “ * Gentlemen, 1 arrest you in the name of the State.’ *• ‘And pray,’ said the lawmaker, ‘for what are we arrested.’ ’ -For violating a law that you assisted to mage, responded the official; ‘ for taking fish through the ice from yonder pond. You will pleiise: accompany us before a magistrate and setnb thfe matter biro.’ > r .■ The-warddn gathered np the'spoils as evi dence of- the imiilt of the parties, and the sportsmen, with' half-satiated appetites and lengthened- phizes, were marched into town sunounded by the j posse,’ and escorted by all tue boysin the neighborhood. Having nothing to .after in extenuation of the offence, the party were fined ten dollars tor each and every fish taken, makinganaggregate of $l7O. There is a' talk of petitioning to oust The offending member- from.his seat in the Legislature, as an offering, to the offended majesty of the law.” ' “BLOOD, EABGO, BLOOD!” A Wall of Genuine Asrony-.-Melanefiolv Pietnre ot i National Detrro<lati»u anfl Olsbpnor—SaMby Nowbere.
