RIFLE CLUB: It wa.s stated in the BULLETIN
Solite time ago that Tho Philadelphia Rifle Club
had purchased a piece of ground on Indian
Queein lane, near the station on the Philadel
-pliitir-Gigmautown-and-Norristown—Railroad,
for the purposes of a park, in order that the
Germans might have a tine place for their
celebrations and - entertainmentai Ungel - - - 89
Wolf's Farm and Washington Retreat, which
have been the popular resorts for years past,
having been incorporated in Fairmount Park.
The ground purchased comprises nineteen
acres, and uponit there were a stone
mansion in' good .order, a stone
barn, a frame tenant house, and
plenty of shade trees. Since the 'purchase
workmen have been engaged in preparing the
place for the purposes for which it is intended.
The grounds have been beautifully , laid out,
and nine hundred additional trees have been
planted. There bas also been put up a large
pavilion, hexagon shaped, eighty feet in di
ameter. surrounded by a capacious porch four
teen feet in diameter, making the actual diam
eter of the structure one hundred and eight
feet. The pavilion is surmounted by a flag
pole, with an American gilt eagle on the top.
From the pavilion, running right- and lett,
there are. two arbors, each eighty-six feet long
'and twenty-eight feet wide. About one thOu
sand persons, it is estimated, can be seated in
the pavilion and arbors.
The shooting-house which has been erected
is of brick, 120 by 30 feet, .and.l4 feet in
height. To prevent accidents, three massive
stone walls have been put up as guards against
stray bullets. In the rifle-pit there are twelve
targets, and ample space has been left to add
more if they should be required.
The stabling and sheds on the premises will
be sufficient for the accommodation of one
hundred horses.
The grounds are• enclosed by a • neatly
painted fence, and the entrance is ornamented
by a neatly-built lodge, the roof of which is
ornamented with imitation cannon balls and
shot.
The cost of the property when, purchased
was 530,000, and in making the improvetuonts
described 520,000 additional have been ex
-penile& -- The
_extent "cif the - grounds;' the ex:
cellent accommodations and the facilities for
reaching the place by the P., G. and N. R. R.
will make this new park a very popular place
of resort for our German citizens.
The dedication of the new park -will take
place- next-Week.. -On-.Monday therewill be,a .
parade of the Rifle Club, Turners,the German
military and other German societies. After
passing through a number of streets, cars will
be taken at Ninth and Green streets for the
grounds. The exercises connected with
the dedication will consist of in
strumental music, singing, a speech
in English by Col. M. Richards Muckle,and au
address in German by Dr. G. Kellner. Then
there will be prize-shooting, acrobatic feats
by the Turners, and other amusements. Tues
day and Wednesday will be taken up with
rifle practice, concerts, dancing, games, &c.
On Thursday there will be a grand pie-nie and
distribution of prizes to the successful marks
men, social games, dancing, Sze. _lnvitations
have been extended to the President, General
Meade, Mayor Fox, Governor Geary, and
other distinguished - gentlemen to be present,
The Committee of Arrangements have con
eluded to make a donation of one-tenth of the
net proceeds of the festival to the fund for
the relief of the widows and orphans of Ger
man soldiers who may killed in the present
war in Europe.
A CLEVER Swricinx.--A. German or Swiss
woman, about forty years old, has been ilia
posing.upon some of our charitably,disposed
- citizens by an artfully-constructed tale. She
is eneged in collecting funds to defray the
funeral expenges of one of her children—a
- tVtn - son—who has just died at the Episcopal
Hospital. The Swiss Consul happens to be
out of town, and consequently she. cannot ob
tain a certain sum of money which she has
coming to her, through him, from abroad,
and the authorities at the hospital will not
wait until the Consul's return, but insist upon
the immediate burial of the child. She is de
sirous of having him placed by the side of his
father, who lies buried at Laurel Hill Ceme
tery. _Her story of the child's last sickness is
very touching. The religious part of it is ex
. ceedingly well done.. The hymn which he
sang just before ins death she repeats in broken
English, and with just the proper admixture
of emotion. Her maternal tears hive carried
away the 'judgment of a number of ladies of
unusual sagacity, and we know of at least
one clergyman who, very recently, advanced
her the money which she needed. The
Clergyman is still waiting the return of the
Swiss Consul.
ATTEMPTED MUDDED.- Bernard Coffee
went into Fitzpatrick's tavern, at Newbold
and Ca,lowhill streets, yesterday afternoon,
and called two men up to drink. After the

thing about not having any money. One of
the men then offered to pay for two drinks,
thus leaving Coffee to settle for his own.
This Coffee didn't seem to like, and threat
ened to put a knife into Fitzpatrick if he took
the money. He didnit wait to see if the cash
was handed over, but drew a knife and rushed
at Fitzpatrick. The latter ran up-stairs. .11 e
bof a revolver and returned to the bar-room,
ut Coffee had left. Coffee. after consider

YELLOW FEVEE AT THE LAzAitarro.--The
brig Holme, from. Jamaica,
came up the river
D
on the th of June last. As she was in a,
filthy condition she was stopped at Quaran
tine. It Was then ascertained that the coui
wander, Captain Phillips, bad died of yellow
fever oft' Cape Hatteras. One sailor who was
sick was taken to the Hospital at the Laza
retto and subsequently recovered. The vessel
was loaded with logwood, and. there was also
lot-ofrags, which are supposed to have been
purchased at Black river, Jamaica, having
been previously used by yellow fever patients.
_Whilethe vesselwas detained:at the,
_Laza
:Tett°, , the - pilot, J. Bennett, of Cape
May, and the second mate, a man named Grif
fiths, -deserted- and. Came to the city,where_.
they were attacked with fever and died. It
was directed that the brig should be uulinided
at the Lazaretto. In this work a barge belong 7
ing to Captain Dogget was used. The Captain
took his wife and son with him. They were
taken with the fever and died at the Lazaretto..
Several days afterwards Captain Dogget Went
to his home at Port Carbon and died there.
This was abbot a month ago. The captain of
another barge was taken sick, but was • re
moved to the hospital and recovered.
Last week the diselise spread outside of the
Quarantine grounds, the family of Mr. Jacob
Pepper having been attacked. Mr. Pepper
wdsproprietor of a public house adjacent to
the Lazaretto, and his place was frequently
visited by some of the crew of the II olme. The
mother-in-law of Mr. Pepper, Mrs. Annie
Eves, 84 sears of age,was attacked early in the
week •and died. 'On the same day a servant
girl was taken ill, and died et the residence of
'some of her-friends ' near Darby. Mrs. Mary
Engler, wife of the Steward of the Quarantine
station, who had nursed Mrs. Enos, Was at
tacked on Friday and died on Saturday morn
ing. , Mrs. Mary Johnson, a sister-in-law of
r. Pepper, is now ill with the fever, but was
doing well this morning. Eleven persons in
the house had the fever, but all recovered ex
ce those mentioned above.
Dr. Thompson, the physician in charge of
the Lazaretto, and the gardener, are now sick,
but they were both doing well this Morning.
Dr. J. L. Form cod, of Chester, who had the
ellow fever in the West Indies, and has had
much experience in the treatment of the dis
ease, volunteered his services yesterday, and is
now in charge of the Station.
There i is no cause for alarm in anticipation
of the' disease spreading to the city. At this
season of the year there are always a number
of cases of malignant fever under treatment at
thts - Quarantine hospital; and this year-there
have beds less than usual. The sickness is now
confined to the employ es of the station, but it
would be well for those who have been in the
habit of going to the hotel and tish-hoeses iu

LOST ARTICLEs IN FAH:Mot:NT PAR:..—The

was given to the loser; a lady from New York.
Keeper Funk banded a costly bracelet over to
ihe owner. There are still a quantity of arti
cles in charge of the captain of the Guard un
claimed.
The diary of an actor found upon the grounds
has some funny entries. Saturday, May 30,
says : "Have not had 10 cents in my pocket for
ten days. Left knife for lager and cane for
Nhave."
On Mayl7 the entries stop, but on June 9,i u
very crooked writing, there is the announce

thing to do with this attack.

INFALLIMUITY.
pe COMIOI Etome—EflbrtB
Scenes in
of the Mitwilty Bishops.
The Rome correspondent of the Pall Mall
Gazette- writes-uuder date ofJuly-18:
This morning the Council. of the Vatican
held its fourth public session in the presence
and under the presidenoy of the Pope. There
were, very few spectators, and but two or
three of the minor powers were represented
in the diplomatic tribune, the rest of the diplo
matte body baring followed- the. example of
the representatives of-France, Austria and
Prussia, who,th accordance with the inten
tion mentioned in My last, absented them
selves from the ceremony. The Vatican made
a strong whip for the majority and
brought together :4;3.3 Prelates, though
the number was largely lEttlif3 up of
Bishops in portitms. A hundred and ten
Bishops now in Rome refused to attend the
sitting, the bold policy of signifying their dis
sent by a public vote having, as I anticipated,
been given up. The dogmatic constitution,
De Ecelesia Christi, with the chapter defining
infallibility, was put to the vote; and only two
Bishops were found courageous enough to
exclaim aloud, " Non placet." These dissen
tients were Monsignor Ciecio, Bishop of Co
jaezo, in Sicily, and an American Bishop,
whose name I was not able to learn.---The su
perstitious : consider it ominous that a violent
storm burst over the cathedral at the com
mencement of the proceedings and lasted till
their close. The orders for a salVo from-Fort
St. Angelo and a jubilant peal from all the
bells of Rome had been countermanded, but
'the solemnity was not unheralded, and the
Pope proclaimed himself infallible amid peals
of thunder and terrific flashes of lightning.
The Pope closed the proceedings with a
short allocution. • Immediately after the pro
clamation of the dogma the Austrian Ambas
sador quitted Rome. The officers and soldiers
of the Boman legion have, since the outbreak
of the war, unanimously demanded permis
sion to return to France.
' On Sat - tuff:ly, the - Bishops , ' ot the - niinoritv
held a conference in the apartments of Cardi
nal Rauscher, and' after a loug debate sent a
. deputation to the commission tor dogma with
a conciliatory proposition relativeto infalli
bility. This was rejected by the Commission,
and the deputation then obtahled'ari Inter Vie w
tiN ith the Pupe. Here they were equally un
successful, and the Holy Fattier peremptorily
refused to make the slightest modification in
the scheme. He was no doubt well informed
as to the wavering wpirit of tho Bishops, which
semi showed itself clearly in a resolution to
absent themselves from the public . sitting,
where: in fact, they bad but to vote non placer
to achieve all they desired. They are meeting
the proclamation of the dogma by a protest
Width they sign Bifintt 10,-le, but in Rome they
and their protest are alike regarded with in
di tlerence.

The liarlford To Hes of the oth lust. says
" The di ougtli continues, and all Vegetation
sutlers. Its effect has been intensified by the
steady, continuous heat. This has - - reached a
point scarcely less than 90 deg., and often sev
eral degreeS higher, nearly every-day-for more
than a month. All vegetation Suffers but the ,
grass, on light -lands, is injured especially. Ex
cept in meadow lands little-or no pasturage l.
left. Some little benefit . has followed from the
slight rain of
. last Thursday afternoon; - but
here in Connecticut, where rain was more
sorely needed than in any other section, we
had the least.. Other States were visited by a
copious rain-storm; ours is still left dry.
Farmers are buying hay ! Butter's less plenty.
Corn, except in swales, and on low lands,
'all cured up;' --it will produce, on hundred,
of farms hereabouts, little more
than 'nubbins;' and many .farmer,
have already cut their cornstalks for fodder.
Straw and bedding' will- be more scarce than
usual. Early potatoes turn out well. Late
planted potatoes are generally thought- to be a
complete failure ; and these constitute the bulk
of the crop. Tobacco also feels the drought.
Here, in the centre of the tobacco-growing
region, the_drought has been the most severe.
The Connecticut crop of 18 - io will be a poor
one in the market—probably even less valuable
than that of 1865. The plants have blossomed
prematurely, and the leaves show a coarse
woody fibre, which will be very injurious to the
market value. But little of the crop of '69
remains on hand; and back of '6 , - there is
nothing. Connecticut tobacco-growers are
prepared for the substantial failure of this crop.
upon which many depend for their money.
Apples hang on pretty well, in spite of the
drought, and would have made an unusually
abundant crop had there been any rain. As
it is they are mostly small; and some begin to
drop."
