The Oxford (Chester county) Press says
Leiper and Lewis are relaying . their railroad
track and adapting it to the use of steam in
stead of horse-power as heretofore. _ This
road connects the renowned and superb gran
ite quarries of .Avondale (in this county), with
'a tidewater landing in Ridley creek near Lei
perville. These quarries, 'together with the
road were r'ecently purcha.sedxThy Messrs.
Leiper and Lewis. Dr. George Smith, in his
history of Delaware county, tells us that" the
first railroad in the United States was indlt in
Ridley township, in 1806, by, the late Thomas
Leiper, for the transportation of stone from . ,
Ridley creek, a distance of about one tulle.
The ascents were - graded inclined, planes, and

the wheels being, of cast-Thou with flanges."
In 1806, only sixty-four years ago, the, only
railroad in the United States was this one-in

ME Rims 1110 ND CALAMIT Y.
The following extracts from a private letter,
written by a member of the Virginia House of
Delegates to a friend in this city, 'give some
additional and interesting particulars of the
recent catastrophe : • '
9 he ball of the House of Delegates occu-
pied all the north end of •the Capitol, over
a bleb were the executive chambers and the
room of, the Court of Appeals. The latter,
at one time, was in two rooms, and when they
were thrown into one the bridge or truss
bracing which was inclosed in the; partition
was removed. The floors of these , upper
rooms were supported by three girders (truss);
but the,,one in the _ centre,_which broke,-bad
been deprived of all support but its own
strength. Over the House ball was a separate
ceiling, with its joists, &c., and over the-court
room the same.
T be middle girder broke in the centre, and
all,from the roof to the hall floor, fell, striking
three separate blows at short intervals, say a
half-minute in all—filling the centre of the
hall to about the average depth of twelve feet
with a mass of buildin Material in--ruin, in
,, te rtp ersed_with_human figs, -from-which is--
sued continued time an prayers. .
Tbe company in the court-room was com
posed ' mainly of two opposite classes : the
ablest judicial minds; who were auxidna - to
test• their own judgment of the law points in
volved in the expected decision, and a larger
number of the poorer classes, holding or expect-•
ing police and other municipal places; and'
alto a large number of negroas, who, its usual,.
now flock to courts and meetings where they
think any question involving their rights will
be raised. The number of the latter class is.
large, and the families, of a large number of .
the poorer classes are left without means of
support.
We are doing all we can.; but:Virlinia ' iS
poor-- - pour, indeed—and I am glad to see that
old Pbiladelphia'is awake, and will help to
- provide f or-their temporarywantic:=The - deatlfs - - -
reach now about 70 and the casualties about
210.
Bad as it is, it might have been worse. Our
caucus bad just adjourned and the members
returned to the committee-rooms- Had it
happened - fifteen minutes sooner, every Con
servative member of both HouseS, except
those necessarily absent, *would have been un
der the ruins and had it occurred .a little later,
- 1. - h — e — House would have been in session.
I, being the presiding officer of the caucus,
was in the Speaker's chair, and bad only left
it about ten minutes, and .had_only AIMS to
reach my committee-room in the basement,
directly under the centre of the hall, when
the accident occurred. blot knowing what
was the matter, I turned oil the gas and went
up to the rescue. I hope never to hear again
such souridsel and, After_ the _ cloud, ;of dust
settled:lsaw such a sight as Ihopc_never ,to
see again.
All Worked bard, and allworked in that-un
certainty so terrible which. results from "the
knowledge that you are helping others at the
risk of . your own life, for none knew.what
would come next and most feared that, the
walls-Would follow.— In abOut one .hour, or a
alihad been removed and attended
to., and then the full horror of the calamity was
apparent. Richmond had lost some ot ' her
briglitest - mind.s,and all the State wars iximourn
lag.

JFIEVL7I:VE. REFORM'.
General Schenok's 11111.
TIL Tribune says
The House of Representativeg has for some
weeks been mainly engaged in, a. revision of
the Cnstoms Tariff; wherein 'every item is
brought under consileration, and most,. of
them submitted to .a direct scrutiny and vote,
A few are increased a much larger number
are reduced ; while the Free-List is very con
siderably extended. But this is not "revenue
reform," according to the' views of those who
are masquerading in the cast-off robes of
Calhoun and McDuflie, becauseiit does not
ignore and destroy Protection to American ,
Industry. -
" IZeduce the Taxes P , —That is just what
don't value it on that account ; for we hold
that the tir^ fr- reducing the. National In
.
arrived; an
have been funded at a lower
rate of interest. Hence, we are indifibrent to
the fate of Gen. Schenck's bill ; but the fact
that it will, if — enacted, reduce the Reyenue
by many is clear. But .this isn't
satisfactory to the " Revenue Reformers,"
simply and solely because it does not subvert
Protection.
'When this measure shall have been disposed
of, the Committee hays an Excise or • Internal
Revenue bill ready to follow it: That reduces
some taxes and abolishes others, so as to di
minish taxation by some twenty millions
more. Taken together, these two bills reduce
tho revenue by about likty millions per annum.
But they don't satisfy the self-styled << Revenue
Reformers," because they do not put an end
to protection.
The income tax expires by limitation with
the current year. We think_.t_shottld_nat,h,
reimposed. Congress should maintain.; good
faith • and it was Congress that decided years
ago, that this should be the first tax abolished..
To reimpose a heavy and: odious tax at the
same time that we are reducink saveral taxes
and abolishing others, would seem a strange
policy.' But this is deemed' essential to the
overthrow - of - Protection: so :we MiTsl expect
to see it commended and insisted on ass
measure of " Revenue Reform."

BlubiliiiseLscrs or PIERRE IIOIILE.
M. Frederick Gaillardet has written; for a .
Frem b,paper, a longs iographical sketch of
the la'e Pierre Soule, Farts of which are very.
interesting.
Sonie 9 .latervlow with Lenin Napoleon.
In 184;', itturnine.from a visit to Madrid,
Soule 'OprCd while i i Paris; and express-
Inc a desire to see Louis Napoleon, then the
PrincezPr4sidei t, M. Gaillardet wrote to M.
ii cquart,,,describ ng the person he wished to
present, as be was anxious that theimprossion
made "upon him should be favorable. We
translate'theaccount of the ieterykew
!‘.Bc.arcely hadl presented, my traVeler to
the master of the Elysee, When I felt sure that
my letter had not been received,,for the flea
question be put to Soule was; "you are an
American, sir, are you 7'.' I hastened to'men
tiontliebonors and qualities of a man, who,
born, in France, had become one of - the glo,
ries of the American bar and Senate. Lou is
Napoleon, who is affable and good towards
everybody, doubtless feared that he had hurt
thafeelings_of his distinguished visitor,whose
name he ought to have remembered; ' for
there was an embarrassing silence for several
seconds, which be broke by asking the Sena
tor from Louisiana the. ,news • concerning
the crevasse in the Mississippi! 'lt
is corked . up, Mr. President,' an
swered Soule; with a smile of
terrible meaning. The prince kindly expressed
a desire to see him again, and the conversa
tion ended. My cause was lost. I felt thathe
was deeply wounded, and tried in-vain to
heal the 'wound by alluding to the prince's
. arlY.PreocePPP.S.,_ Alt nothipg w.ould.
Soule was convinced that the President was
an idiot. 'He saw I measured him at a. glance,
and that is what' enabarrassedliini. He hated
me soon as he sari* bow T had judged him.
He will never forgive me for his crevasse and
- r - rnrcork - . 1 - - =-This - -lmpression—fastened-urionAlifp
mind, was not without influence upon a well-
known and hioody incident which occurred
afterwards in his diplomatic career."
•
After the fainous -Ostend Conference, and
while Smile was Minister to Madrid, occurred
the duels which M. Gaillardet thits'allude.s to:
- - "Soule - , who had been the% soid:of - the
-Ostend- Conference,--had- just -returned from
Madrid, when he was invited, along with
other members of. the diplomatic corps, -to a
ball given '.by the Marquis de Turgot, Min
ister. of -France, on the--occasion -of some
national anniversary. He went, with his wife
and-his son, who was his Secretary of Lega
tion. Madame Soul, on the arniof the latter,
was passing a, group of gentlemen - ,when she
heard the- Duke of of .
say : 'There goes.
Margaret of - "llurgundyf'• I do: not know -if
the-phrase was meanttor - 3.fadame - Soule. ---- If
so, it could only have referred to her personal
appearance ; for if she were as handsome and
strong as Georges in La Tour de Ye*, she
was an honorable lady, whom Blander had
never touched. But -she did not:Bo - .under--
stand-it, -and her -son -Went at once-. to- the.
Duke of Alba and-demanded an explanation
of the'insult to his mother. .A hostile meet
ing was decided on.
On ICarning. what had passed,.Soule -the
elder,
on his part, demanded ;reparation
frommthe Marquis de Turgot; wheal he held
responsible - for — thw - outrage offered te-a-lady
in his houe by the 'brother-in-law of his
master.. -The Marquis vainly protestedibis in
nocence. Nothing could persuade Soule that
the scene was a bit designed for him-by or in
behalf - of — the---Tiiileries, : --They -meant i -in in—
sulting him, to please the Emperor and Em
press, who regarded him as an enemy since
the unfortunate issue of his presentation at
the Elysee. Strange effect of preconceived
ideas! The double duel took place without
serious result to the Duke of Alba or young
bottle, but with a ball in the knee of the Mar
quis de Turgot, which lamed him for life.
" This unfortunate affair made Pierre
S.oule's stay at Madrid; unpleasant and
as General Marcy,-Secretary of State,
did not give him the spport he bad promised,
he requested to be recalled. On his return
home, to show the constant firmness of his
position in the eyes of young America, he
published his .correspondence with the Cabi
net of Washington.'

VERA enuz, April f2Oth.—We receive from
all directions confirmatory evidence of the
painful dissensions which threaten the Rentib=
lic with anarchy. •The difficulties in San Luis
Potosi continue.' The whole, section of coun
try lying upon the borders of the United
States is unquiet, while the troubles with Lo

The Ahinitor states that Sefior D. Trinidad
Garcia, Deputy to Congress, waS lately grossly
maltreated by :soldiers, sent to protect his
person while.on the way from San Luis Potosi
to this city. Ho was compelled by them to
walk, leading a stubborn horse; and the Rep
resentative of. the people of Fresnillo passed
through that city, scotibd at by the Govern
, mept soldiers conducting him. A short time
ago a schooner was seized near the coast,
while in the act of sending goods and effects
on shore. A body of troops, nuinbering ten
men, who had been stationed at that point by
the officers of the customs at Sisal, were sent
on board to take charge of the vessel, a Cus
tom-house official accompanying them... About
midnight the •smuggler slipped his anchors,
and making prisoners of the guard, put to sea,
doubtless intending to land his cargo at some
_other point. What became of his . prisoriers is •

Innumerable incidents of this' kind, un
worthy, however, of detail, reveal the (if):

prompted President Juarez to action against
the highway robbers who commit the most
of these crimes and ontrages„but i am sorry_
to say the action is not calculated to better the

--in fact, a driumhead court-martial, lasting
not more than three days—is to decide upon
the guilt or innocence of the accused persons.
Sentence and execution in case of guilt-are to

crowding to the spot; .
Whiz Bane Crash !I!
went the entire structure, with a report equal
to that caused by a ship of the line's broadside,
filling the air with Monster fragments of boil
ers, machinery, timber and. thousands of
bricks, paralyzingtemporarily every one with
in a radius of at least half a mile. An iron re
cetvlb tank, liaViing . a 'ZaffaditY of :4,800 gal;
lons, used for holding caustic soda, was shot
into - the air at least a hundred feet :ft landed
on the other side of the water bulk-head•frame
building standing in front of the mill. The
_two_nnurirdwilers,-measuritigq - eaol.Criieven-by
twenty-four. feet, were hurled in different di
rections, one of them having , been blown into
five or six huge fragments- The large brick
smoke-etack•, seventy feet high, was - hurled
almost intact into the air in like manner, and
fellin myriads of pieces about the place. •
- • The 1111du Building
was a,two-Story frame, covering an area of,
about - 100 'square feet, 'and was solidly con
structed on a stone foundation: ..It had been
in working order about three years and con
tained the finest and. costliest of machinery,
one piece alone having recently cost mOOO.
It was only last week that the- insnrance in
spector visited the mill and remarked that it
was one of the finest risks in the country.
There was comparatively little stockinored'on
the prerniges—not oVerttifteen' tons of inailu-'
factured paper. - The mill could turn out .. -two .

catastrophe took place. About thirty men
were-kept constantly emploYed. , " There ,was,
hoWever, a large quantity of raw material,,
such as bamboo pulp. The mill was owned

west of. the mill; and was aroused by the
alarm of fire. Throwing on his gartuents he
rushed abroad and bad :reached within a
stone's throw. of the burning building whan
fife explosien took place: Directly towards
him came bounding an immense piece of the
rotary boiler, some seven feet in diameter.
He dropped insensible, and on recovering
found the expected messenger of death lying
a few feet in front of him. The large steam
drum was lying not far off in another direc
tion. Mr. Judson was not injured. The man
Walters, while hurrying out of danger imme-;
diately after the explosion, MS struck by a
flying timber and pretty badly hurt in the
spine. His clothes were taken clean off his

GIN AND MILK.
The Grent_Case in New York
Tlie 7 New York Post has the following:
The ease of the clergyman who took his gin
and milk has been disposed of.: He has re
teived his reprimand, and the affair will now
be left, like the offence of Brummell's brother
in appearing on Bond street in country
clothes, to blow over.
The same quiet humor which .marked the
indictment characterizes the verdict. Tho
clergyman, say the reverend jury, did not, ask
the reporters to drink, unless " What will you
have may fairly. e, taken to involve such
Ile — was'irot - intoxitratell7 - The
quantity of gin he imbibed nth the milk was
inconsiderable, At the_time:df-the-offence-h,
I was in a state of great physical exhaustion.
But by resorting to a reSlaurant ho acted in
discreetly, and by asking for gin "he was
builty," sayithe committee," of tempting the
arkeeper to violate the law of the State."
This is surely putting it very mildly. The
guilt was in actually inducing, not tempting,
the barkeeper to violate the ExCiAe law.
With regard to the dictum of the committee
that in asking the rePorters " What will you
have?" he did not invite them to drink, there
will be different opinions: A mord:direct and
explicit invitation "to take something" could
hardly have been made to thirsty reporters.
The late ArtenauS Ward s was once asked by
telegraph upon what terms he would lecture in
San Franctsco;, and in reply to the despatch;
" What will you take for a hundrednights?"
promptly replied, " Brandy and water." But
"What will you have ?" in a bar-room, can
not possibly be misunderstood., Any ,one
who had profited by a - goand --- system - 01 - cont. -
mon schools could not have failed to catch its
meaning.
The clergynian's defence is, perhaps, the
most damaging part of the inquiry to his own
reputation. He "stood treat' to the "gentle
men of the press " thatku_i_miglit get his sermon
into the newspapers! U weak human nature!

of the saddest stories. The child Was a healthy,-i

their first child, wished to, do the most
thing - inthe Way of nursing it; She sent foram
English tairse, and hoped to have , it strette- -
and hardy as English children. are. • This... it appears,
mismanaged terribly.
In the first place, being unaccustomed' to •
_ltalian habits and ways, she found faultwith
the baglias, or, wet-nurses; they . were dis-
. charged, one after another, to please her, Until - -
the poor baby had no less than thirty-seven
different ones in the three months of its , short:;;
life. But the worst thing she did ,wa.s to give -
the poor child ice-cold baths - night and morn- .
ing, and instead of wrapping the little creature'
up in flannel on taking it out of, the bath, She
always extended, the shivering,naked body on. , '
her lap and tried reaction by slapping and rub-.
bing. Of course the consequence was croup,and
the child died. The mother,almost frantic,serit •
in every direction for counsel, although sur-,-
rounded with 'physicians. It was very tench
ing to hear of some of , these appeals. 'The
Queen has quite,an intimacy with... Miss IBIS- ,

Biddle has a wife and family of children.'" To
this woman the Queen sent, and, , when Jane
Biddle came, the poor Queen Sophia said:
"You are a mother. You have raised many
