SWIFT AND..3TI9T.
On the fourth day after true bills had been
found against them by the Grand Jury, two
of the brutal scoundrels of the South Broad
street gang, Baldy and Duncan, received the
swift and - just ' sentence of the law. Thirty_
two years in the Eastern Peniteutiary, and, a
lis.€ of
.$3,4300
. Was all the penalty 'that the' aw
provides for the case, and Judge Paxson most
properly laid the whole power of outraged law
and public decency upon the heads of these
miserable offenders. Practically, the sentence
is imprisonment for life, and as it is imposed,
there is a universal conviction that heavy as
the sentence, is, the law really provides no ade
+pate penalty for the brutal crime of these men.
It was a crime, as Mr. Sheppard declared,
in closing the case, that was all brutal, that
bad no redeeming ray of humanity blended
with it, anti it would have required a most
exalted reverence `for the forms of law to have
condemned the act, if Judge Paxson's sug
gested possibility bad been realized, and a tree
and a rope had furnished even a swifter and
surer punishment for the unpardonable crime.
It would not have been, laW, but that it would
have been justice, few would venture to deny.
One of these convicts, Baldy, appealed for
mercy on account of his wife and relatives,
but it was an appeal that deserved no considera.
tion. He has showed no consideration fox
his own family. The life - he had lived..
and the fate which now- shuts him
up in a felon's cell, are of
his own deliberate choosing. All the evi
dence goes to prove that he gloried in being the
ring-leader-of one of the most dangerons gang
of outlaws Philadelphia has ever harbored-
He cared nothing for wife, or father, or sister, -
and; if all that we hear be true, 'this last vie.
tina of his biutal gang is very far from being •
the first. Stich outrages as this have been here
tofore perpetrated with impunity, probably
lry this yery_same band of desperate outlaws.
because it, needs a very brave woman to fabe
the distressing exposure of a public court-room.
under such circumstances, and Miss Jervis de
serves the • thanks of the community for the
moral courage which she has displayed in
bringing these villains to justice and breaking
up such a band of outlaws.
But while the officers of the law are to be
commended . for the promptness with which
I3aldy_ and Duncan have got their deserts, they
have 3 et much to do before _ justice is satisfied
or the proper lessontaught to the lawless classe
in this city. Two of these brutes have beet ,
arrested, tried, convicted and sentenced. Owe
other is in the hands of the law, but four more
of them are still at large. It will detract froth
the credit of the, police, if these men are long a'
large. It ought' not to be a very difficult thir.,
to trace out the' whole of this plug and to mett ,
out to all of them the same just sentence that.
has already fallen upon two of them. The men
scattering of these ruffians is neither punish
ment for the past nor security for the future.
Philadelphia can never be called a well_
governed city until men and women can walk
ar.y where and everywhere, at all hours, ii,
peace and safety.- That this is not now tilt
case, it does not need such a startling outragt
as the one that has just shocked the commu
nity to prove. There are other localities besidc
South Broad street where neither man nor wo
man can walk after dark, and scarcely in broau
day-light, without the utmost risk of robbery.
insult or outrage. It must remain as a dis
grace - upon the good name of Philadelphia
until the ruffians and outlaws that thus make
life and person and property so insecurt
are crushed out by the stern hand of inflexible
law. Spasmodic efforts will not accomplish
this end. It is well; when cases of pecttliat
enormity occur, that justice should fall with
the swiftest vengeance; but there is needed,be
bind and below this, a steady, stern, fearle,‘
pursuit of this whole class of outlaws, and \
latenever private citizens see such an order ol
things fairly inaugurated and faithfully prose
cuted, they will be less fearful about coming
forward and lending their aid to expose these
outrageous offenders against public morals and
public safety.
THE PRUkuSIAN VICTORY.
There was another fight yesterday between
the Prussians and French at Weissembourg,
little French town on the right bank of the
Lauter river, immediately upon the frontier,
thirty-four miles north of Strasbourg. The
place was assaulted by three or four corps of
the Prussian army under the command of the
Crown Prince, and the opposing force, a single
division of the 14 rench army, was driven fro'n
the field and the commanding general killed.
The Prussians captured a large number of
prisoners, destroyed several miles of the rail
road running through the town from Stras
bourg to Mayence, and succeeded in retaining
possession of the place. It is impossible at this
distance, and at this juncture, to estimate the
precise importance •of this success of the
Trutirrians. It may have no greater meaning
_than the melo-dramatic.Freneb_sictory_at-Saar---
tirnek. But it may also be an intimation of
.the decided intention of the Prussians to pre
vent that movement of MacMalion up the
.Rhine from Strasbourg, and into Prussian ter
airy—, which seems to be a part of
the French plan of campaign. But for
'an intelligent coMprehenslon of the value or
this victory we shall have to await the progress
if . events. The guesses indulged in so . freely
by--newspaper stratig , sts at this distance are
likely to have very little value just no v. The
campaign Jim not progressed far enough to
enable anybody to,.cltscern the designs of either
of the belligerents; and as the cable reports of,t
intended movements are' founded- upon pure
Spe.culation, there are no, materials out -of ;
which to construct probable theorio. It is(
likely-that , we, shall have within a few days;
decided 'demonstrations' , on, the part of both
armies. If a beaVY blew' is struck in either,
direction, or if a , general 'advance Into'the
enemy's territory is made either by the Prus-,
sians or the 'French, ‘ We Map bd able to form'
sonic reasonable eslitudte'of . the real desimis of
the combatants.

Quiet peoPle;and invalids ,who visit summer
resort's to seek for init . :: and:',iecnneration have,
good right to complain ! !!!of the ,common Ame-I
rican practice ! havingiminense hops once or;
twice-a week at the hotels in which , they live.:
It would be rhought!tliat all persons who ! goi
to the sea=sh'o're, fof instance, would;prefer•! to,
forego the excitements of the'bill-tooni fot a.
time, nd instead ! of exercising themselves! in
dancing, and breathing a hot, polluted atmos
phere, would rather Choose : spend every
evening in the cool air •of the ocean and,
the'delicions darkness of the beach, the!porches,
and the lawns. But there are certain Persons
who find no pleasure in such things,. not .'in
a•nything which interferes with display__of theirt
persons ar - 4 - iheir, finery. `-For the ; benefit' of,
these iudividuals'every''hotel-keeper considers!

every night. Or tWo, and' to give a," grand hop."' . ,
It is observable that While respectable 'peoPle:
countenance these assemblages, they are com-;
posed, a 'large niCaitire of a' 'Class - of:
persons who never obtain admission to good'
societY upon other occasions. As a conse
quence, watering-place hops are generally char
acterized by tawdry dresSing,' vulgar conduct
_ and
_such an appearance of shabby, gentility as .
might belong to an entertainment given in the
servants' parlors of an 'English , gentleman.
The enjoyment that is obtained at such assetn
blagesfor the, most. part accrues to second
class people, who find here a rare opportunity
to mingle with their social superiors; to young
women to whom extravagant display of dress
and adornment is the chief end of existence. •
and to newspaper reliorters, who regard such
allairs with professional enthusiasm, and in a
sort of ecstacy describe the costumes, the peo
ple, and the performances of the wheezy brass
band with an amazing array of superlative ad
jectives and well-worn phrases, such as - All
went merry as a marriage bell," "Tripped the
light fantastic toe," " The wee sma' hours,"
" Discoursed most delicious music," "
manly landlord," &c., &c., &c.
In the meantime the majority of the people
who find no pleasure in such entertainments
are not heard -from, and- popular-opinion re
gaids hops so much in the light of inevitable
things that they are ; timid about giving ex
pression to their feelings. There is in_ every
targe sea-side hotel a large nnmber of persons
who, if theifivishes were consulted would Note :
to abolish dining room hops as outrageous nui
ances. if the balls closed at reasonable hours
those who were not invalids could avoid the
noise and confusion by- leaving their hotels.
But the dancing is kept up,until very late in
the night, and while it and the boisterous mu
sic continue, it is simply impossible for anybody
in the vicinity to sleep. This is peculiarly hard
upon sick persons and upon ladies who have
young children with them. It is a piece of in
-Justice which ought not to be permitted. Per
sons who ' pay heavy board bills at
watering place hotels and submit to the multi
tude of minor impositions for contriving which
landlords are famous, are at least entitled to
peace and quiet; and no pottion of their fel
low-guests, however large, has a right to inter
fere with them in this particular. In any place
where the laws of civilization prevailed, and
where the government was not in the hands of
remorseless, grasping and conscienceless land
lords, halls would be provided for public en
tertainments of this character. There ought
to be at every watering place a building devo
ted especially to these entertainments,and hops
at hotels should be abolished forever. There
always will be persons foolish enough to prefer
dancing in a hot ball-room'upon a warm sum
mer's night to quiet enjoyment of the open air,
With this arrangement the tastes of these peo
ple could be gratified without everybody else
being made miserable.

The dull season, which every year spawns a
certain amount of unsavory and scandalous
hoaxes upon the public press, has taken this
year to creating literary canards, just as it had,
for a succession of seasons, to the manufacture
of sea-serpents, stone giants, and mammoth
gooseberries. .We are sorry to see this de
praved ingenuity invading the walks of litera
ture ; because, although in most of the in
games yet made POlie the detection is easy
and inevitable,. yet it is plain that a large open
ing awaits the literary empiric, in the obscurer
by-ways of letters, among a class of subjects
heretofore protected only by general consent
and literary honor. What is to prevent the
most contemptible and dull of Grub-street
hacks from manufacturing a detailed story that
shall cast a shadow on Key's claim to the Star
Spangled Banner, or Hopkinson's to flail
Columbia, or Gray's to! thei." Elegy," or Hal
leek's to "Marco Bozzaris," or Drake's to the
" Culprit Fay " ? We repeat, we regret to see
this infection spreading. Day before yester•
day we had to defend against the claim of an
ambitious Jerseyman, Poe's ballad of the
"Haven." The claim was preferred,. by au
obvious trick, in the interest of a deceased
person. There is nothing which covers up
tracks like a grave. To-day we must demolish
an audacious pretension,—on behalf of another
defunct, a "dead sister,"—to the authorship of
a beautiful religious poem, which is -a house
hold word in many a Philadelphia family, and
has attained an American circulation. It is
entitled " The Call," and will he recognized
• from the commencement : . • •
"Thy night Is dark: behold, the gloom was
devper
In that old garden of Getbsomaue."
.Sinnuel Blatchford, in a.letter to the _New_
York Evening Past.of July nOth, makes a
stiatch at this lyric_for la deceased sister,-Now
Mr. 131atchford's sister nevey composed a line
of it. In the present moment, when everyone
is out of town, it is not very
,easy. to accumu

"Mr. Starr Bing, the American writer,after
whom is named one of the grandest of A ineri

White Bills of New Hampshire, tho - ' Granite
State.' Another hook upon the same subject

This novel intelligence refers to.a Christmas
book called " The White Hills, their - Legends,
Landscape and Poetry," written eleven years
ago, as proved by the date of the preface, and
issued sumptuously as a gift-b6,3k at , least half
ii-dozen seasons back. -- The ..-Itheriution should
have civet' the author hisst„,yle,.as Ren.Thomas

years. The other reference is• to a still older
piece of intelligence : Rev. Mr. Willey's guide
book, the most valuable authority extant con
cerning the New Hampshire mountains, was
written in 183:5.
The New York Tribune devoted an editorial
of some length, yesterday, to an attempt to re
ply to our strictures upon its bad -habit of tell
ing stories about the American Press Associa
tion. The Tribune's defence of - Mr. - Greeley,
evidently not written by himself, is too lame
to need further reply, -and regretting that we
have been compelled to give so much

A Railroad Defalcation In Baltimore.
!Special Despatch to the Phila. Evening Bulletin.?
WAsitiNGro.n. Aug I—There was consider
able excitement yesterday in financial circles
over a ,rumored defalcation of one of the
officers of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad.
It appears on investigation that Mr. Craw
ford; late Secretary of the Company, admits
having used 20,000 shares of the Company's
stock, the value of which al par, fifty dollars
per share, would be $1,000,000, though at its
market value it would not exceed five
hundred thousand dollars, and that he had
borrowed from various parties the sum of
three hundred thousand dollars, hypothecat
ing the stock at fifteen dollars per share as se
curity for the loans thus made. The amount
thus obtained had been invested partly in the
purchase of a claim upon the General Govern
ment and partly in various money specula
tions. From Previous information it was be
lieved that the stock had been hypothecated
chiefly at New York, but it is stated that this
is not the fact; that it has all or nearly
all been . hypothecated in Baltimore.
he money raised was upon an over-issue of
stock of the Parkersburg Branch. The parties
holdirg the stock not, it is thought, be
losers, the general impression being that the
Company is liable for the whole issue. The
certificates bear, it is said, the genuine signa
ture rot the President and Secretary' of the
Company, the proper persons to sign thein,
and are otherwise regular in form, and under
the decision in the Schuyler case in connec
'stion with the New Haven Road, the Company,
it is generally believed, will be liable.
PENNSYLVANIA.
From the Coal ReQ•lon.
(r;pecial llegpateh to the Phils. Evening Bulletin.)
POTTsVILLE, Pa., Aug. s.—Under the ar
rangement for 1870, by which the wages of
the miners are made proportionate to the price
of coal, three dollars per day being the basis,
with a graduated scale up and lo ?en, the col
lieries south of Broad Mountain resumed
work on Tuesday, and those north of the
mountain, on yesterday, the latter having de
manded some concession for contract, which
has been acceded to by tho operators.
It is believed by competent judges here that
this now arrangement will bring the price of
coal, at Port Carbon, to two dollars and a
half per ton, at an early day. •
The general condition of the miners, at the
cud of this: prolonged strike, is very distress
ing. Many of the most thrifty men have not
only exhausted all their savings, but have
mortgaged their little properties, and intnany
casex ughters_liao-crossed—
, OV . t•r into the rich farming district south of the
coal region, begging for. the support of their
families. ‘ 9 '
Notwithstanding the protractedstrikeliEtbo
Schuylkill district, the total coal product of
the whole coal region, including Lehigh,
Lackawanna and Susquelia,una, is estimated
at more than a million tons in advance of that
of last year.

NEW YORK , Aug. 6.—The fire which com

that fields have been , burned forty thousand
acres in extent. The fire yesterday was burn

On Wednesday night the lire department of

but the wind changing saved them the trouble.
Much of the territory burned over is a worth

and the roads are impassable. The bassi - pro

with organizeftgangs lighting the fire, it was
thought, would extinguish the flames during

t From the N. Y.lierahkof to•day.J
TIlrasDAY. Aug. 4.—The directors of the Bank of
Euplend, at their usual weekly meeting this fereamou,
further advanced the rate of discount, welch is now six
per cent. Ibis action of a buoy of men who are credited
with ever fuithinlly discerning the financial prospect,
although generally anticipated in this country, has a
significance and importance which point directly to the
drew! that England is about to be involved in the war of
empires which seems to hang over the destiny of all
Europe. A few weeks since the rate of discount was
only three per cent. It was at first advanced
but a halt per cent.,
as much through an ignorance
of the magnitude of the war them threatened as
throupt• a desire to prevent a financial panic and to
bring the money rate gradually to a figure w bleb elt,uld
I,r beet the interests of the'lllank of England in the
monetary movements to ensue upon a state of hostili
ties. .t be latest advance—the doubling of the original
rate—and the prospect of a higher rate next week,
which would not in the least surprise Wall street, are a
tightening of the purse sn Inge which denote an appro..
h. listen that the great" shopkeeper of nations "may be
dran n into the war. To ne in this country it is signi
ficant that in London to-day, despite this change in the
discount rate, our five-twonties ware firm an t a shade
higher while English consols were weak and
lower. Vi hat is the inference'! That the time has al
ready Passed u hen the first symptoms of war and the
melt to sell depressed our securities below their intrin
sic e Rine, and that the reaction has set in which is to
assign them their real place above every European na
tional security dealt in rattle London Stock Exchange.
The speculative holders have lost their bonds, and the
capitalists and private Investors now hold them. Had
this intelligence reached - us at any other seaspn than
the pry sent ,w hen NVall street is at tie seaside and water
ing places, the dullness and inactivity of the hour would
give place to buoyancy, activity and excitement.
The money market showed a further relaxation, and
the transactions ou call at rates above tire per cent. were
tutelt exceptional. The prevailing rates on all classes
of collateral% were four and five per cent., the has ger
government dealers having balances left with them at
three per cent.
Foreign exchange was lower, although nominally
;incited at Itralanlo94 for sixty &eye' sterling, and 1101 a a
1101 for sight bills. The present demur& of the market
seem to: be hilly supplied by the bills drawn against
the receut loan of the Baring Brothers.
The Government market was strong, but shared tho
general dullness of the cay. Prices advanced ou light
transactions, and the undertone of the market was
decidedly film. The steadiness of our secusities in the
English market, the light offerings to-day at the
Treasury purchase and the steadiness of gold, com
bined-:to occasion an advance of .a quarter-to .three
eighths per cent. in •the more active issues. It should
not be torgotten, however, that the foreign bankers,
who were heave purchasers at the recent low
quotatioug, bought simply for a brief speculative
turn and Plot for investment:, Bence, if the present
prices should bring nut sales of the bonds so held it will
not be at all surprising. Indeed, the street may be pre
' pored to see these reactions ; but if the telegrams con
cerning the London market state the truth it is extreme
ly doubtful whether speculative sales at thes, priers
willprove at all profitable. The government offer , to
eurehase elicited proposals for the sale of only :$1,793,200
Louis. The market Was highest at the close.
The gold market opened on the street at 122, but de
cibel d to 121.71 on the firm prices for our bonds in Lon
don. As soon as the advance in the rate of discount
was made known the price recovered to 122, but again
went od . to 121,i; When it wee found that the higher rate
for mousy in Loneon had not depressed - American secu
rities. h urtherniore, although the specie shiptnent to
day wee over n million mid a half dollars, it Is dollidttil
whether the shipments for the immediate future will he
in proportion to the amounts sent since the inaugura
tion tit hostilities in Europe. The condition of the
foreign exchanges is against any other presumption.

EXECUTION OF JOHN REAL
HIS LAST MOMENTS ON EARTH
FROM NEW YORK.
[By the American Oren AsenciatfOri.i
The Execution of John Renl—.lils Liget
-111 E onK, August s.—John Real slept
soundly during the night. A few Menus were
~,resent. At six o'clock Father Duran• net
ov.ho - has nelitra - Vonstant attenifalif - Wif ,
came in, accompanied by Mark. Finley, the
De putt' 'Warden. • , " •
The priest had a' short conversation with
Real. A force of three hundred`pollee from
the various precincts', under Captain Ron
-nedy, -arrived- and scattered-around- -Franklin
and Clinton streets. A great crowd of people
assembled, out of curiosityAo see the execu
tion, but , a as not gratified.
At seven heal was visited by the culprit
_Sheridan, and both -were-accompanied- by
.ld ark Finley, and went to the little chapel in
the female department. Mass for the dead
was celebrated •by Father Duran:met. At the
termination Real received the Eucharist, and
'Sheridan also.
' 9,838
. Beal's demeanor-all through:the service ex:
,hibited a most fervent devotion. Mass over,
- the returned, at - eight - o'clock, to .breakfast,
?which was brought' MM.. - The officers la
the prison came in and bade him farewell,aitd
manifested much emotion.
Shortly after eight a squad of detailed Offi
cers from various precincts marched
into. th e prison. The relief guard. of
the prison immediately formed in line, .and,
.accompanied by about fifty spectators, , were
US - MT - red in - to the court yard: 'Three. rove of
'seats r ere-arranged-- on-the : western . side of
the gaffes% s, the front row being within four'
feet of the noose.. -An awning overhead kept
out the MID. 'The , police , officers were-formad
in a double litie along the quadrangle, leaving
a passage for the culprit to the.gallows.
Al 9.:.0 the fatal procession defiled out from
the t,erne of the dying man's long incarcera
tion. It consisted of the hangman, Real,
priests, im N
der-sheriff add deputy-sheri. Real
looked well as he walked, his eyes cast down
and his lips uttering prayer. He was dressed
.in .a blue frock coat, --white, waistcoat, green.
tinted fancv pants,square-toed shoes and clean
linen. Bound his neck was the halter, and on
his head the ominous black cap.
Fathers Duranguet and Wilson were much
---troubled, and seemed . to feel--greatly for the
prisoner. On reaching- the scaffold Real
la - heeled around and faced- the nuder-Sheriff,
and all kneeled while Father- Duranguet be
- gan along and earnest prayer. Real prayed
tong Mid earnestly. When the prayer was
over the party around Real were murmuring
prayers. At this moment tbe under-Sheriff
took off his hat and wiped his face. A dull
clash sounded, the - weight fell, and with a
sudden jerk Real leaped four feet into the air,
and was almost instantly a corpse.
SINGVLAB BLTJNDERS.
The London ,Standard has the following
story
"On M.Paradol's arrival at Washington Mr.
Fish, an old and intimate friendsif the French
'envoy, said to him, Sinister of France I
welcome you; as a man and a friend I forbid
ou to enter my door." Mr. Fish, it should
be understood, was the person who induced
31. Paradol to deliver the lectures by which
lie achieved so great a reputation in the
"Cnittd States some two or threo,„years ago.
1 he cause for this cool reception is. alleged to
have been the fancied defection of M. Paradol
from his old principles ; and it is stated that it
thoroughly paralyzed and crushed the unfor
tunate gentleman."
_lt, would be difficult to crowd more ina_
miracles into the same space that the London
.stwidard has condensed in the foregoing ab
-urd article.
1. Mr. Pi 'and M. Paradol had no per
sonal acquaintance until the latter presented
his letters/of appointment as Minister to the
United States.
11. The remark attributed to Mr. Fish was
never made.
111. Mr. Fish never induced M. Paradol to
deliver any lectures.
IV. 31. Paradol never delivered any lec
tures in the United States—in fact, never
was in the United States until his arrival
here about three weeks since as the envoy of
France.
V. M. Paradol was not paralyzed or crushed
by his reception.
VI. So far from his being forbidden to enter
Mr. Fish's house, he bad been received there,
and was engaged to dine there on the very day
on which his life terminated so sadly.—N. Y.
.Standard.
A DREADFUL ACCIDENT.
The Result of the Careless Use of Drags.
The Chicago Tribune of July 31st says :
" One of those accidents which happen once
in a while as a protest against •permitting in
comp,etent or careless persons to deal out
drugs ai4d chemicals, occurred in this city on
Friday. The way it took place was this: Mr.
Whiteman, a cletk in the dry goods store of
Ai andel Bros., at the corner of Clark and Van
Buren streets, -was sent to get some compound
made up of nitric acid and mercury. He went
to the drug store of B. A. Leavenworth, on
Clark street, near Van Buren, and asked for
what be wanted. There was a clerk in the
store in charge of medicines and material, on
the scientific managerueitt of which the lives
of the public depended, but events prove that
he was incompetent and Ignorant ot their pro
perties. Be knew where the nitric acid was,
and where the mercury was f1i56,4111d it dill not
require much chemical—knowledge to pour
some of both into a bottle and cork it tightly.
"That was what he did, but he seems not to
have knoWn the efibct which those powerful
bodies.bave upon each other, or how to mix
11min in proper and harmless proportions.
The sad consequence was that the unsuspect
ingyoung man took the bottle, which W:LS
hardly less destructive and dangerous than a
torpedo, and went his way. He had not pro
ceeded far .before the compound exploded,
burning his face and body frightfully, and,
worse than all, destroying his eyesight for
ever. He was taken to' his home at No. 2.28
State street, and Dr. Walker and others were
summoned to his aid. They did all that skill
and science could do to mitigate his sufferings,
but it was beyond human power to restore
sight to his darkened eyes.
" This is a case of peculiar hardship. A
young man, eighteen years of age, alone in,
the world, without father or mother, meets
milli a fate, that, to most men, would be worse
than death. He may live for fifty years, and
during all that time. not a ray of blessed sun
shine will he see;
he will not be able to gaze
on the thee of a friend,e and, worse than all,
he will be debarred from earning his living,
and, perhaps, will have to depend on the cold
and precarious charity of the world. Ho is
to be pitied; but what can be said of the Flys-
Rut which is so loose as to place the lives of
public in , constant peril.,-itref which ex
