A special train leaving ,the Pennsylvania Rail road depot, Thirty-first and Market streets, at •A.

After a short pause for the gathering of their scattered thoughts, dispersed no doubt by the gay or grave faces of the expectant audience, Mr. T. H.

Here followed farewells and congratulations upon the picturesque and beautiful walks and slopes of Haverford College Grounds, whose lofty forest trees, grouped with symmetrical grace, and smoothly rolling sweep of lawn, must have etplea.red thems.elves to every beauty-loving student. But the train tarries not for even such parting words as those now :,poken. That, hurrying on with relentless speed, bears away its freight of emancipated but half saddened Graduates, Juniors, " Sophs" alai' Freshmen. A. M. E. THE NEW MINISTER TO ENGLAND. Hon. Frederick T. Frelingbuysen. The Hon. Frederick T. Frelinghuysen. just nominated as Minister to England, represents an old and historic family. His grandfather, Frederic, was a delegate from New .Jersey to the Continental Congress, and in 1770 joined the Revolutioni.ry forces. He served with‘tis tinction as the Captain of a volunteer corps of artillery at the battles of Monmouth and Tren ton. He was promoted to be Colonel, -and served during the remainder of the war. I n 1793 he was elected a Senator of the United States. His son, Theodore, was also a distinguished man. In 1808 he was admitted to the bar, and became eminent as an eloquent advocate. During the war with Great Britain, to 1r , 12-14. he raised and commanded a com pany of volunteers. In 1817 he was elected Attorney-General of _New Jersey by a Legis lature opposed to him in politics, and held the post till 1820, when he was chosen United States 'Senator. In the Senate Mr. Frelinghuysen . acted with „ the _ party. ; He exerted himself on the part of the Indians ; supported Mr. Clay's re solution for a national last in the season of the choleia; spoke in favor of the extension of the Pension system, and acted with Mr. Clay upon the micetion of the Tariff:lnd the CoMpromise act of 1832. In May, 180, the - Whig National Convention at Baltimore nominated him for Vice President. and Henry Clay for President. They received 105 electoral votes, while their successful competitors, Janies K. Polk and George M. Dallas, received - 170 votes. It, is the nephew and adopted son of-this Mr. Frelinghuysen who is to be our Minister to England. He came to the bar in 1839, first en tered public life as a delegate to the Peace. Congress of 1861. He there displayed remark able • ability, and was soon afterward made Attorney-General of New Jersey, the term of office whereof is five years. Besides -executing the duties of this position ably and satisfac torily, he rendered efficient service to the Re publican party in each political'campaign by his vigorous and felicitous oratory. In 1866, Governor Ward designated him to be United States Senator, to succeed Senator Wright, deceased, and the subsepient rLegislature elected him for the unexpired term of three years._ In the Senate Mr. Frelinghuysen sus tained his party in its arduous conflict with President Johnson, and was chosen to reply to the last annual message sent by him to Con gress. He served On the Coniniitteesnn Naval • Affairs, the Judiciar.t, and , Claims, and wuras: rend' estecined'tiyhinfolloSenatore. :Sena for Stockton succeeded -Mr. Frelinghuysen in the Senate in 1869,'and since then he has been engaged in professional duties at.

The quaint-looking autograph of Colonel .Joseph F. Tobias, of Philadelphia, sprawls ttselt unon the Stockton House register. Charlemagne is said to have made his signa ture with a seal engraven upon the hilt of his sword. Colonel Tobias gave paternity to this movement for the entertainment by. Philadel phia to the Seventh. Regiment of New- York Militia. It is but jast that his hospitality should receive the richly -merited reciignition resulting tram its sates. And in all repeCts thus far the reception of the New York ,Seventh Regiment has been such. To hosts and to_guest-lit.has provedequany _agreeable.. The sun went down, in the similitude of a a red wafer,sealing up like an old-time letter, for the poSt-ottice of eternity, the fourteenth_ 'lay of July, in the year of our 'Lord one thousand eight hundred and seventy. The hospitality of Philadelphia had proved • too prt-ing for the 'enforcement of -military punctuality. Bad the _party taken the train at 4 o'clock, they would have been here by the hour of 1 / ?. I'. 31. To receive them especial preparations had been made. As it was; the ample preparation of Gen.Sewell, so far as'en pediu t.g their arrival,was of no avail. The reg,i7 'tient arrived at 2i o'clock this morning. They are mainly quartered at the Columbia, Con gres, Hall and the Stockton House.

The latter were wofully tired. The music of their band awoke the ;till air of night with magnificent effect. The fall band is composed of seventy-lire men. The number now here is fifty-tit,e. The drum corps was made up of - thirty men. As the line way formed at the depot, the pie lure was one of exceeding beauty. As they reached the Stockton House, a,pyrotechnicin -cription, "Welcome Seventh ew York Regi e n t," burst into a legible line of tire.

The Vienna journal 11"«nderer observes that rii profound secrecy in which hitherto all preliminary the_ measures have been elaborated by the Curia, the defective and unparliamentary order of proceedings, and , the piiblication of the mach-talked-of three Bulls, prove suffi ciently that we have here before us a long pondered and carefully arranged plan. "The Aignity Of an (Ecumenical Council, or rather Its very nature and essence, demands the most oonscientious neutrality on the part of the Pope and the Curia ; but on the contrary, we have seen his Holiness choosing his party before the Council had assembled, and using all his personal and official influence to carry through the plans of the Jesuits, and un duly bias, from the first, the future decisions of the assembled Episcopacy.. The fact is that. in Bonne there are two• Popes, who were form erly enemies. but for many years past have lived in the greatest harmony. We_ mean his Holiness in the Vatican ; and the General of the Jesuit' Order in his monastery, usually known as the Black Pope...Pius...aX.,.con vinced by the ill success of his liberal policy in 1848 that lie did not possess the qualities essential to a ruler, allowed himself to sink gradually into the arms of the Jesuits. The great financial and intellectual resources of that Order and the coincidence that the Roman and the Jesuit Pope were alike filled with zeal for the honor of the Virgin, laid the foundation of an influence in the Vat ican, which, first revealed in the proclamation' of the immaculate conception, has at length obtained a complete mastery over the weak character of Pius IX. The grand guiding tenet of the Black Pope is well known ; it in volves the subjection of all temporal power to spiritual authority, and the absolute supre macy of the priesthood,which is what he calls the establishment on earth of the Kingdom of Christ.' The principles enunciated in France in 1789, on which the civil and political rights of that coun try, and afterwards those of Italy, the Austro- Hungarian ,Empire, , and Spain were based, and which have rescued continental society from clerical tyranny, threaten by their ,con tinned spread the once respected but now antiquated • dogmas, and to this intellectual revolution a compact lefighe of all the spiritual atithoritieit are to be . opppsed.

The residents of Tarrytown, on the Hudson, are at present considerably excited over cir cumstances which incline to warrant the be lief that a foul murder has been committed in their midst within the past few days. It ap pears that alnan named Cypher, while stroll ing on the river bank in search of shade ,a slay or tWo ago. discovered a quantity of blood, surrounded by evidences pointing directly, as is believed. to - A Shocking and Blysterioun Crime.

Immediately. in the rear of the gas-works and . on a large fiat stone which tops a wall about three feet above high watermark; and' nearly level with the. bank, there was visible an extensive patch of partially coagulated hloOd, while a few inches from the gory spot and .partly hanging from the boulder on the water side, was found a silk net belonging to the article of feminine headgear known as a- waterfall: - A' quantity of hair, believed to have been torn from - the article - milted; : was picked Up on _the_spotrw hi le-Some-of the-same raaterial-was faind attached to the grass and weeds which line the pathway leading to the river, the lat ter warranting the theory.that in carrying the liedy-ta the ' water's — edge - the dread Was .

RAWLINS, Wyoming Territory, July 7.—We found the Indians; holding a strong position on - the side of tire—Miiiintains — at - Pine; Grove meadows, twenty-five miles south of this place, and attacked them and drove them a mile, and into the heavy timber and under brush, a regular jungle, where my men could only get through on foot by cutting their way with their butcher-knives. Night coming on I had to suspend the tight and send a courier into Rawlins to Captain Thomas' B. Dewees, of the Second United States cavalry, for aid to renew the fight in the morning. Capt. Dewees and Lieutenant M. E. O'Brien arrived at day light on the morning of the 28th of June, with about fifty cavalrymen, but the noble red men had concluded to leave during the night. We found their loss to be twenty-one killed, and a number wounded, besides - a great number of ponies and horses killed and wounded. They lett nearly all their camp equipage and robes and blankets. They carried their wounded with them, but left, their dead. on the field, secreted in the bushes. They numbered about two hundred and fifty, and belonged to the Cheyennemid Arrapahoe tribes. They were armed with rifles, muskets, breech-loading carbines and six-shooters. Our loss was one loan wounded, Sergeant Michael Keenan; slight gun-shot wound in the hip. I returned with the Captain .and command to this place on the night of the 205th of June. The Indians went southeast, and will cross the itiountains through the north pass,and go down on the Smoky Hill country:-- • • • - This country, at the present time, is full of hostile Indians.

A father and his three children were mur dered recently in Mississippi under the fol lowing circumstances: Two orthree years ago a quiet, peaceable man by the name of Harrison Bailey unfor tunately killed a man in self-defence. He was tried for the otience and acquitted. But a relative of the murdered man swore ven geance. A few days since Bailey found a small bottle of whisky in the road, from which two or three drinks had apparently,been taken. Supposing that it belonged to a neigh bor who had just passed over the road, and had been dropped from his pocket, Mr. Bailey carried home the bottle and thought he would take a drink from it. Ho accordingly made a glass of toddy, and gave a sip to each of his three children, who came around him while mixing the liquor, then drank the remainder himself. All were immediately seized with violent pains, and soon died. On analyzing the contents of the bottle, the whisky was found to be Artturated with strychnia ; and it was discovered that the bottle had been carefully deposited in Mr. Bailey's pathway, just before be passed ; and further, that, the person who had threatened veneance had suddenly left the neighborhood, So that no doubt can remainthat the deed was one of denioniachl vengeance. —A Chicago paper, noticing the report that Horace Greeley was suffering from fever and ague, suggests' that his former affliction' was worse—fever and argue. 1 —By Sucking the spout of a boiling tea kettle a child in Illinois put itself beyond sue —A man +in Buraford,.Me.; has .a dog that produces a fleece slx inches long every year The material rs said to Make mittens that wear like iron.

In more points than one "A. H." discovers a considerable resemblance between Dickens and Lord Palmerston. "They had both a certain hearty bluffness of manner. There was a • sea-going way about them, as of a captain.on his quarter-deck.. They were both tremendous walkers, and took interest in every form of labor, rustic, urban, or commercial. Then, too, they made the most and the best of everything that came : before them ; stood up sturdily for ' their own way of thinking; and valued greatly their own pecu liar circumstanced'- And last, not least-they - - werehoth - z - lhc. -- truest of::frietillS, • u vari ably standing up for absent friends. But Dickens was not equal to the statesman in supreme command of temper. "One of the most pre cise and accurate men, he grudged no labor of -any kind in whatever -he uiidertook. If he. made an appointment he was sure to be in' waiting a.quarter of an.hour =least before the .time; always wrote out the day of the month in full ; and made the most elaborate notes, comments and plans (some adopted, some re jected; for all his stories. Nor was -he less la boriously zealous on behalf of others." "A. H." mentions a case, which, was, perhaps, his own, of a :brother. author whom Dickens assisted in - regard- to-- the :title of -a- beok, during the last few weeks of his life, and amidst all his own labors, writing Sometimes more than one letter a day to make fresh suggestions on the subject. A writer in .4)yser,alse.notes,.as an illustration of his. ex trerni,and:Painful-:dih„enee his =dating toed hastiest note with theday of the month at full length, adding a long flourish to the signature, and often, if pot always, signing his name on the envelope into the bargain. In 'his literary efforts, he was a thorough artist.' " He decided on the effect to be produced, chose !Ms own point of view, and worked on steadily in his own way," often oddly and awkwardly, yet with a certain tact, and generally hitting his mark. His tastes and modes of thought are described - as essentially "middle-class Brit ish."' Mr. :Blanehard Jerrold, in the Genilenunes Magazine, Mentions the labo rious earnestness with which Diek ng—a-friend—to—visit—hintwe uld write out a complete itinerary and way-bill, to guide - his steps, including all the stages of the journey; whether by train; boat, - or gig. Tfe also tells how- Dickens ;• having 'With - others assisted in making some provisions for the Wife and family of a deceased man of letters, -was found-one day,- -not content—with mere pecuniary hid, helping in his shirt-sleeves and hammer in hand, to hang the widow's pictures in the little cottage that had been produced for her. He wrote for his children not only the little " History- o€--England" - already well known, but a life of the Saviour, .which is also to be published. The composition of tile - former was .prompted, as explained in ta letter to Douglas Jerrold, by a characteristic hatred of cant. " don't know," he says, "what I should. do if my boy were to get hold of - any onservauve or High Church notions ; and the beat way of goading against such a horrible result is, take it, to wring the parrot's neck in his very cradle." And then he goes on to describe his dismiSt at an hospital - dinner he-had attended, • where the speakers were of the city aris tocracy,- "sleek, slobbering, bow-paunched, overfed, apoplectic, - snorting cattle, and the auditory leaping up in their delight!" " 1 never;" - of the power of the purse, or felt so degraded and debased by its cersisruplation,sincel have bad eyes and ears." SWALLOWED UP IN A QUICKSAND. Heroic Ffforts to Save the Victim. A correspondent of the Kansas .Thurnal says : This afternoon the citizens .of Silver Lake were stocked by the intelligence that a man by the name of Price Roberts was partially buried in a well out on Big SOldier. In coin pany with Dr. Ward and others of this place. I iepaired to the scene of disaster. The cir I:must:ln - a are as follows Mr. Elmore Randall engaged Mr. Roberts to dig him a well. When he had it sunk to the depth of twenty-five or thirty feet, he com menced curbing • with rather frail material, using grapevines, secured by boards. When at the depth of forty feet, having dug five feet below his curbing, he was urged by Mr. Ran dall and his friends to come out; but, having struck water, he was anxious to secure \ the prize. Shortly, afterward Mr. Randall's ears were startled by the cry for help. Seizing the - Windhiss, they dragged him up about fifteen feet, when the treacher ous curbing gave way, forcing him to one side and under the bank, breaking his hold and entangling his legs in the curbing. Buried up to his chin, and with the fearful prospectof another slide every, moment, Mr. Randall, with heroic fortitude, descended the well and commenced digging' hint out. Death was around him and, above him—on all sides. Yet he worked until he got the land away to his - waist. Weak and exhausted, he was pulled out. He mounted his horse and rode after help. When we reached the spot we found Mr. Roberts still alive, and giving directions to those above how to proceed. We constructed a curbing about twelve feet long and let it down, but owing to the curbing below we could not it to the bottom within three feet. Moments were eternities with the poor fellow. The first to descend the curbing was a young man by the name 'of Johnston, who pulled the sand_ away from his face, eable up, and Mr. Randall went down with a hoe. Mr. Roberts' appeal, "Save me, Mr. Randall l?' and the response o Mk. Randall, " My God, Mr. Roberts, I will ' save you-if I can !" struck deep into the hearts of those abover — This noble youth worked' until, fainting and exhausted, ho was pulled up and placed on a bed, and restoratives given him. An experienced well -digger was the next togo down. He worked • faithfully, but gave up all hope of getting him out. The sun had set, and deep down into the darkness of that " chamber of death" Mr. Roberts still con tinued to give directions. Dr. Ward went down with a lantern. A bottomless box was lowered, which the Doctor placed over his' head to protect him from the inroads of the quicksand. We were fulfilling other orders of the Doctor when he exclaimed i "He is gone !" Another slide completely covered him, and alMost fastened the Doctor ,in. Every effort was put forth to save hitn but in vain. We returned home with sadreflections that we bad seen a fellow-being _buried alive. -,-The folloWing story is told of Rev. Dr. Taylor, the noted New Haven theologian: " Profound in reetaphy,sics, but, not versed in science, he was an obstinate defender of the literal interpretation of the six days of creation in the Book og Genesis, as against the idea of six long periods of time, which Professor Sillinian advocated. One day Professor Still man took Dr. Taylor . into thegeologiear • cabinet, and — confronted him with several trilobites in rocks of the loWer strata, and said : 'Now Dr. Taylori•how did these once living animals get into this position, exceptas the rock, gradually formed about them. in one of thOse long, early periods?' Nonsense, nonsense,' anstrered Dr. Taylor; do you think that God, when Ile made the rooks, couldn't have stiffed in the things just as easy as a' ook stirs raisins in a pudding or cake' Professor' Stillman -was so. disgusted that, perfection Of courtesy though he was, be put on- his hat, Without - reply i walked straight, out of the buildinVand did riot says, wont. to Dr. Taylor for three weeks." .
