in the roof of the West Chester and Philadel
phia Railroad depot, yesterday afternoon, and
following the track, passed around an engine
and stripped the necktie from a man who was
standing on the outside. The man was not
injured, but was so badly scared that he ran
for several squares before he stopped to see
what damage had been done.
A house,No. 2310 Deshong street,was struck
by lightning, but was not badly damaged.
Dougherty's stable, at Twenty-fifth and Par
rish streets, was also damaged by lightning. A
cow which was in the building was killed.

hens damage bad been done. '
NEAT SWIM/LEM—In reference to the WO._
Man who obtained money by false representa
tions' mentioned in the BULLETIN. Of. the Rh
inst.,Mr. Rudolph Koradi, the Swiss Consul,
writes :
"The name of the woman in question, as I
have'been told; is given as Reinhard, and she
is said to represent herself to be a Swiss. I
am induced to believe that she is' the same
party who practised similar tricks on some of
my countrymen about eighteen months ago.
As I have not been away from Philadelphia at
all for the last week, nor bold or held any mo
ney for such a party, the transaction, I am
sorry to say, is an imposition throughout. To
warn a charitable imbliC against further at
tempts to swindle by that person, I therefore
would be much obliged to you for giving space
in your paper to this-commUnication:"

There was a bitter fight over the election of

votes as candidate for Congress.
The Bon. R. J. Haldeman, the present Rep ,

Attorney, Were also candidates. There were
over 3,500 votes cast, of which Mr. Haldeman
received less than one-third,. The candidate
having been conceded to Cumberland county,

The probabilities are that Mr. Drutton will

ike British Expedition at Lake of the'
Woods—Loyalty of "General" Biel.
The St. Paul Press. of the Pith inst. says :
The advance of the Britiah Rod River forces
was, at. last accounts',' at Lake of the Woods,
and was slowly making its way to 'Fort Garry.
Information has been received by Gen. Riel
of •the approach of the troops, and a perfect
understanding seemed to exist between .Col-
Wolseley, the Commander of the British ex
pedition and Gen. Riel.. Of' the ninety miles
of road which remained to be cut through
the wilderness between Lake of the Woods
and Winnipeg, • nearly half had been
accomplished by the troops, and Gen. ,Riel
had sent out a force of his own men to assist
in opening the way for the passage - of
,the
expeditionary forces..W ols el ey's repre
sentatives had reached Riel's headquarters„
and with his sanction had issued the following .
proclamation, printed in circular form, at the
office of the •Winnipeg New Nation, (in both
-the French.and English languages), and which
also appeared in a conspicuous place in the
columns of the New Nat?on of the 22d of July,
copies of "both of *blear have been kindly fur
nished us by ,Mr. Bannatyne :
To 'the 1:01411 - Iithabitants of M .
Manitoba : Her
Majesty's :Government having determined
upon stationing some troops amongst you, .1
have been instructed, by the Lieutenant-Gene
ral commanding in British North America; to
proceed .to :Fort Garry with the force under
my command. „
Our mission is one of peace, and the sole_ob-.
ject of-the expedition is to seetire Her Majes
ty's sovereign authority.
Courts of law, such as arecommon to every '
portion of Her Majesty's empire, will be duly
et4tlbilsired,.and justice will be impartially_ad
ministered to all races anti - to all classes—the
loyal Indians or half-breeds being as dear to
our Queen as any other of her loyaisubjects.
The force which I have the honor of com
manding will cuter your province represent
ing no party,,elther in religion or nolitics,,and
will afford equat proteetioff to ace liVes and
property of all races and of all creeds.
The 'strictest order. and discipline will be
maintained, and private property will be care
fully respected. All supplies furnished-by-the
inhabitants to the troops will be duly paid for.
Should any one consider himself injured by
any individual attached to the force, his griev
ance shall be promptly inquired into.
All loyal people are earnestly invited to aid
me in carrying out the above-mentioned ob
jects. G. J. WOLSELEY,
Colonel Commanding Red River Farce.
- Gen. Itiel's proclamation' announcing to the
people of the Red River Settlement that their
political difficulties had been amicably settled,
and that all the rights they had claimed, and
were willing to fight for, had been generously
granted by the British Government, has not
come to band, but we are assured that the
most satisfactory state of feeling prevails
among the people • that Rid] is regarded with
unabated love and gratitude by all classes,
and that he is St-tenger to-day -in the affec
tions ---his-- - people ----than-ever- be
fore. Gen. Riel has succeeded. in preserving
the rights' and liberties of the Red River
people, and if these rights and liberties are
endangered.in the future, Gen. Riel will be
just.ari ready to take up his sword in their
defence as he has been in securing them for
the present . ; and thousands of men who . look
'Upon him as their leader will be just as willing
to follow him then as they have been: in the
past. General tranquillity had.i or weeks been
prevailing.lo'tlie . settlement; buSitess was
Brightening up; and eve vthing was beginning
to assume the same shape that existed before
the attempt was made to pass -- this people
over to the Canadians. Gen. Itiel was still
conducting the affairs of the Provisional Gov
ernment in a satisfactory manner to all-classes,
and was only awaiting the arrival of Col.
Wolseley to see the new Government of Man
itoba thoroughly organized, when he would
peaceably surrender his sceptre to the British
Government. The Indians, since they were .
Tampered--with -last -winter - by - McDougall;
Denis and Schultz, have become troublesome,
if not dangerous to those on the remote out
skirts of the settlement. Promises bad been
held out to them by the Canadians, which, of
course, had never been fulfilled.
The Absurd Story of Shaver, of Burling-
_
ton.
The following is addressed to the New York
Ere ning Post :
I observe that Rev. J. Shaver, of Burlington,
New Jersey, writes that he haS found a fetter
of Edgar A. Poe, in which Poe credits the au
thorship of "The Raven " to hisfriend Samuel
Fenwick, who sent it to Poe for publication.
wishing him, before printing, to " see if it had
merit," and make any alterations that might
appear necessary. Not only this, but it seems
hat Mr. Fenwick depreciated his own talents
so far as to suggest that, in that instance, or in
any future pieces he might contribute, " I "
Poe) "should revise and print them in my
own name to ensure their circulation."
At the time of the publication of " The
Raven " in the American Review, I was a fre
quent visitor at the office of Mr. Colton, the
editor, and often assisted in examining manu.
cript, and in this way chanced to be present
when Poe brought in "The Raven."
Mapother, the cleric, told me who he was,
and asked if he had better give him some
money—l think twenty-five dollars. I glanced
at the poem and told him to pay it, feeling
ure that Colton would approve. I conversed
with Poe for some time, and sulksequentb
, ;1‘1" him once or twice, along with Colton.
while that number of the magazine was pass
.ng through the press, and am sure that on all
hese occasions he was perfectly sober.
If be did pass off another man's work a,
his own, it was with a perfect consciousne,s
of what lie was doing.
If afterwards he was disposed to giVe credit
to the real author, there was no need of ex
..using 'himself by a plea of intoxication. His
iriemi Renwick's singular request would have
been explanation enough to accompany au an.
nouncement of the authorship to the public.
And why did he not announce it to the public.
.nstead of writing it in a private letter to Mr.
Dickerson?
That gentlenuin conk! hardly hiive credit( ;I
the story, for he has made no use of the infor
mation, which seems unaccountable.
Finally, when we consider "The Raven "
is a peculiarly Poe-ish production—a poem he
was abundantly competent-to write, while Ns
know nothing in Mr. Fpnwick's career which
would indicate that he might be the author—
s he conclusion is irresistible that this letter is
either a forgery, one of .those ingeniou,
eanards to make a sensation which have been
-o common of late years, or else one of those
crazy whims which Edgar A. sometimes in
t ulg ed.
1 feel no special interest in vindicating the
name and reputation of Poe, except such as
arises from the indignation which every man
feels on seeing a dead author robbed of his
laurels by bola assertion or .pretended revels
