LUNATICS AT A HAULMAIt STATION Startling Affray_ Between two Crazy Not long ago one Lawrence Rapps,livfhg - near Monroe, Detroit, became deranged, be ing subject to fits of melancholy and weeping. He continued to crow worse until it became necessary to semrhim to the asylum at Kala mazoo. One morning last week George F. Btreeter was, to start with the unfortuate man for the ass him, but felt that ho should need ai3- , sistance, and Christopher Itapps, brother of the - crazy man, -- Vohnithered to 'accompany Streeter. The Detriot Free Pets says : "On the train the two brothers had a seat together directly in front, of the officer, and it. 111.8 noticed that the insane , man grew con stantly calmer, while Christophergrew tnor_e_ arid more excifeA. contmue,d to groan, and weep, deploring the calamity that was 80 8001/ to separatetbe two, perhaps forever, and refused to be comforted by the sympathetic and cheering words of the *nicer. Lawrence had now and then a glimpse of reason, and, %%hen the trio got for dinner at the junc tion, was the coolest of the three. They all sat down at •the ' hotel dining-table, tho - between -- the -- brothers: -- The table .was , filled with" men; women and children, passengers on the train which stood opposite the door.. The meal had only commenced, when Christopher, the sane brother, suddenly uttered a loud scream ofsor -TMV-all-In'"-- - .11A.RIKONIE uespair - - which startled every 011e - , - causing every cheek to turn pale. As he shrieked he rose from the table, dashed the officer aside as one might a ' child, artil then the two insane brothers locked together .in a road struggle.. 'Up and down they whirled, shrieking, kicking„ striking,` pulling, each:one a giant in strength, each one a demon-in .his-- hate. The strongest men trembled and pushed away from the strange scene,- the women screamed and fled, and for a moment or ' two there was such a strange spectacle tb.ere_ as one never witnessed in his lifetime. The mad brothers struggled and writhed, now one down, then the other, until some of the pas sengers cried 'Shoot them !" The officer; coolest of all, made several efforts to separate the combatants, which was accomplished by • Lawrence seizing his brother's hat and spring-. Jug through the crowd to the door. He went straight aboard the train,clambering on top of the cars. Christopher was thrown down and hound, and then came a struggle 'to secure the --- other -- brother and take Win Tr - om the ear. - The feat , was- at- length — accom- - !dished, and then hewas tied, hand and foot, and left at the Streeter came on to this. city with- Christopher. The victim. was locked up at the Central Station while the offi cer - returned to go forward With the other and will return-today and take this one to lon roe. The yells and shrieks of the poor fellow , :ontined at the statioi were enough to make one tremble, and he jumped and bounded against the door of his cell in a way that shook fhe - building. The whole - incident is - one Of t,bB strangest-that has occurred for a long time, - :Uld_butiOr the torn_clothes-and-scratches-ex-- hibited by the officer; and the shrieks and yells of th,Oast,victim of the fearful disease, might , ttern like a romance." - rMR:N ' TI ...

The Cleveland 110‘ 7d says: Just after freight train No. 20,0 f the Atlantic and Great - Western Railway, laden with crude oil in - v, - T:mden tank cars, due here at 3:sB,Wed nesday morning s passed Newburgh, about five miles froth the city depot, one of the cars was discovered to he on tire. The flames spread With astonishing rapidity, and the 'conductor as quickly as possible cut off six or eight cars —being the only ones he could reach—and de tached the locomotive. The grade being down, the burnin • cars followed the let . • . v. • .• orni any effort being made to throw them from the track, and they came on a blazing line of lire and smoke, scorching bushes and grass and throwing flames into the various oil works as they neared the canal and river. When they arrived, at the canal-they stopped at the switch, setting -tire to six- crude-viliaden - cars tlrere - o - u; - d-thes ' • t • 0 e trestle-work of the switch, the canal and rail road bridges and the manufacturing establish ment of the Kritch Crane Manufacturing Co. The'loss of bridges was complete. The one over the canal was iron and wood, and what ever there was inflammable about it was de stroyed, and the, remaining portion tumbled into the canal, thus, for the present, obstruct ing navigation. EClarge force of men are at work getting it out, but we are not apprised how long the detention will be. The railroad bridge was a fixed wooden trestle, and was entirely burned up. The two bridges were worth probably seven thousand dollars, but the loss is not estimable in any certain sum of dollars, for the greatest dam age is in the entire stoppage of Cleveland freight till temporary structures can be erected. The crude oil burned was worth about nine or ten thousand dollars. The tanks were owned by the various oil firms tor whom they were transported,bnt the cars, Y. were old, belonged to the Atlantic and Great Ni t?, stern llailway.--Company, whose loss upon each is about $250. The loss to the Kritch & Crane IVlanufac- Wring Company is estimated at about $20,000, and was chiefly to machinery. The most valua ble and permanent portion of their buildings were not destroyed. We are not able in the hurry and confusion attending the affair this morning to arrive at the names of the losers of the oil nor the values of the several lots, but believe we have cor rectly stated the aggregate, CALIFORNIA. VINEYARDS The San Francisco Bulletin says : " El Dorado county, once the irie - St, popu lous and productive mining county inCali fornia, is still the scene of valuable gold dis coveries, chiefly in quartz ; but a greater industry is springing up in its vineyards and orchards. Some ,of the old mining towns Would have no existence now but for these new resources. The grape , crop promishs to be so large this year that • the local' press is dis missing what shall be done with it. The Cen tral Pacific Railroad, accessible by the Placer ville and Folsom Railroads, and by the excellent turnpikes built during the period of mining activity, opens a good market for fruit, both in California and Nevada, i but there is still a surplus, which is made into wino and brandY. Wine-making by the owners of the smaller vineyards has not been successful, owing to the great expense for casks and lack of suitable storage places in which to keep the juice until mature enough for sale. Many have been forced to sell their wine of a former year at a sacrifice in order to. make room for new," -and such will he the case • this season unless some wider Market opens to the growers to dispose of. their grapes. There is a promise of more cars and lower freight on the Placerville Rail-, road; from. Shingle Spring's to FOlsom, this season. If this is 'realized; it will afibrd much relief and stimulate the planting of more vines. But there should be also a large wine house and'distillery at some Convenient point,where surplus fruit can be sold for conversion into Wine and brandy. The judicious invest ment of capital in such an enterprise is sure to be profitable. There is a' growing demand for our wines, and this is the way to honestly meet it". , • - - —A Wisconsin gentleman eat down on a beehive the other day,- and- now Tprefers to stand,' . • 'FRIDAY; JUNE 3; 1870.

TIGHT-BODE DANCING. A Popalar Peril The New Y(Trii ) %ist says: Three distressing accidents connected with popular amusements' have lately taken place. Miss Wells has been bitten and mangled_ by a performing lion ; Signor Pedanto has had a bad fall at the Tammany; and Harry Leslie, a -well-known-rope-dancer, has been fatally in jured by falling thirty feet while performing at Washington. On all such occasions a brief outcry is raised on the part of the press, and then , the matter is dropped till another similar accident occurs. These mishaps, however, have no more effect upon the " professors,", of dangerous. gymnas tics than the repeated accidents do on the traveling public generally. In almost all the circus companies, children of tender years are in training for these perilous feats. A man or-Woman --who falls -from-the—tight-rope-is-- always ready, as soon AS recovered, to resume the fearful trade. The most prominent per formers meet with the most misfortunes. None - in - the business were more experienced or more daring than Madame Senyah and the Hanlon brothers; yet this lady and one of these brothers lately met with serious acci dents while performing in public. Amusement goers like to witness the " hair-breadth Neves" in which lie the only charm of this popular entertainment; and without legislative prohi bition there is no prosnect that tight-ropes and trapezes will be soon abandoned. The tight-rope dancers are of all ages from infants of three and four years to mature men and women ; and in the case of Madame Saccbi, a celebrated French performer, there was an instance where the biblical limit of three-score years and ten did not put an end to the ability and desire to display this danger ous skill. An experienced performer never falls through his own Carelessness or inability; but the accidents are invariably caused. by some defect in the apparatus, by the unex pected swaying of a rope or the defection of a framework. 13Iondin has been so far the most successful person in the business, and has passed through the most fearful dangers un harmed. A rope-dancer usually makes a handsome livelihood. His•specialty is one which appeals to the less refined portion of every community. He can display his skill in every country, be fore people.ot every nationality and language. "Frolxis China to Peru," the whole boundless universe is his ;: and if it were pertain that on any given occasion he would fall and break his neck, the Coliseum of. Rome would not hold half the spectators-who would greedily flock to witness the cruel . sight. —Our proof-readers excuse any errors of punotaation committed in the rapid composi tion which - a daily paper requires, by the sportive remark that a rushin' setter can't be expected to be an English pointer. .nu, York r 1 ( What an Impartial Journal Thlnhe'of the Assoelated_Vress (From the Nation of thierweekj We must say that .if the American Press Association - has the least knowledge or 'sense in its management, and it has shown signs already of having agoed deal, it can easily im prove vastly on the European despatches of the ..As.sbciated Press.

Messrs. Henry and McMurtrie appeared for the plain tiff, and are in consultation with Mx. Tilghman, counsel for the Schuylkill Navigation Company. Messrs. Mann, Lynd, Biddle and F. C.

It is the head of a Mendicant,ipainted from life, and belongs to the eclectic school of Bologna, founded by Carracci about the close of the sixteenth cen tury. The artist is unknown, but the picture is so tine in execution that it may be one of Carracci's own. , "During the upheaval of the social fabric .in Europe in 1848, the Americm. fleet was sta tioned in the llfediterannean—and attached to one of our vessels, was the late Lieut.
