a grand,, scale, for. the purpose of, striking
down, once fOr all, the spirit of resistance on
the part of the natives, and, of establishing the

secondly, of awakening in the victors a Sense

iciverititfie, world's history, and endeavor to,

to the dui English rule In India. •

the accounts we have of them come from the

ost:reliable sources. This 'fanaticism, corn
-sitied with gross sensuality, has become in
grained in the Hindoo ; , and when we reflect
rtuit the ,essentialcharacteristic . of Oriental
is imnititabilitY,• we shall not be much en
couraged to'expect a speedy change. • "

We have hitherto been speaking of the native

dome, which owned a sort of feudal allegiance
to the greal
,Mogul
,at Delhi, but were only
kept .in subjection-by force. The history of
India is a hlitory of dynasties, but not of the
people ; it is ono scene of intrigues, revolts,
~,enspiracies of brother against brother, son
igalist father, Murders, perfidy and bloodshed,
'luring which the desolated land was onsan
kuiriarand impoverished at the'caprice of its
rulers. Yet throughout than) changes the
I-litloo Character has remained unaltered,
from MAHMOIID of Ghuznee .down to the pre
sent time. The resistance of the Mohamme
dan population to British supremacy has been
at all times more obstinate than that of the
Rindoo; but we think, that the Arian and
l'urkish races, to whom Mohammedanism is
confined in India; aro - far More susceptible of
conteraion to Christianity and civilization'
than the Wild and yielding Eindooti, inasmneh
as they posiess a higher grade of intelligence.
, We must not omit to enumerate the Affghans,
who Claim - a Jewish origin, nor the Sikhs, who
aro a nation of infidels, amongst the peoples
whom the English have to keep in subjection.
When; in addition to the formidable task of
legislating for these mixed nations, we take
into account the vast extent of India, and its
numerous population, amounting to nearly
two hundred millions, the enormous distance
of England from, the seat of, war, which will
neenisitate her maintaining an immense mili
tary lorce':thers, and the perfidy and insu
bordination of Asiatics, ready to take advan:
tage of any and every opportunity to shake off
a, foreign yoke , (not, however, from patriot
ism, ea understood by us, but in order to re
estalslisb tyrannies of their own), we must ad
mit that Great Britain has enough to do in
this great and Wealthy peninsula. •
Yet history tells us that all conquestaby the
sword hare been but temporary in their dere-
Hon", however important their results may have
been. The conquerors have either amalga
mated with the donqnrired, as was the caao

pot occur: to •the English in - India: no amount

the contrary, a residence of twenty years is

Still less can the children of Europeans, born
in India, bear the deteriorating effects of the
climate; they are sent to England as soon as

threality to their 'sinking into
What a third generation might become
we cannot imagine, but possibly it would fleet
away, like the lotus leaf, down the Ganges,
and be remembered only as ono of the multi
farious incarnations of Vienne.
While England retains her mArgy she will
hold India. Should bar foes prove too numer
ous and powerful, be will be deprived of her
empire; but ft will never-be by Asiatics.
Yet there is another hope for those who
earnestly desire that India should remain
under a Christian Government, for the sake of
the. people of that country, and not for the
beieflt of its consequences. It is to bo de
rived from the fact that a widely-extended
ynglisb-speaking population is fast occupying
the Oriental Archipelago. The great island
or Continent of Australia is manifestly des
tined, at Berne future time, to exercise a most
powerfullifluence on India and China, and
"steam has aVridged, or will very soon abridge,
the distance between them and the western
shoresiof this Continent. China must soon
yield to the pressure from without, and a new
field, be thrown open to the enterprise of
Christian - nations, in which those that are
nearest will have the advantage of the market.

From Continental Europe the intelligence
is full of interest, as the telegram will show.
France apparently preparing for war, Austria
for defence, Naples not yet out of the trouble
caused by King Bowies obstinacy, and
Spain very 'much dissatisfied with England,
on account of the hint thrown out by Lord

that as Spain was encouraging the importa

as well to allow . the United States to deal

THE SUB•ATLANTIC TELEGRAM
There ought to have been some tidings,
long before this, from the telegraphic fleet,
which loft Plymouth on the 10th ultimo.
The plan of last year was to flx the cable At
one end in Valentin, Ireland, and endeavor
to carry it'clear off to Newfoundland. This
year's project provided for the !ailing (or
steaming) of the telegraphic fleet to mid
ocean,-between Newfoundland and Ireland,
there to separate, the Niagara for the Now,
and the Agamemnon for the 014 World. Had
all things gone well, the Niagara would have
reached Newfouudianda week or ten days ago.
Whether, even if the Cable bp laid, a cur
rent of electricity can be communicated, un,
der water, through its whole length of over
2,000 miles, remains to be-seen. Science has
not yet been able, experimentally, to test this
power of transmission.
National Guards of Philadelphia and Seventh
Regtutent of New York.
Anxious to do honor, in the most gemplimeat
all manner, to the Seventh Regiment of New
York, commanded by Colonel Duryea, the Na
tional Guards of Philadelphia, commanded by
.Captain Lyle, courteously extended an invitation
to take this oity on returning from the South to
Now York—an invitation which, coming as it did
from the Crook corps of Philadelphia, was most
gratefully received, although the Seventh were
unable to wept it at the time, having previously
made other arrangements. •
The Seventh Reginient having formed the escort
of the honored remains of ex-President Monroe to
Richmond, the capital of the Old Dominion, were
hospitably entertained by Governor Wise,—after-
Wards - proceeded to Washington, where, in fro* of
the White House, they were reviewed by President
Buchanan, accompanied by his Cabinet, with
General Jesup and Mr. Bigler. Their admirable
discipline was the subject of admiration and sur
prise,—but the gallant Seventh fully merit all
praise, for a finer regiment, in point of discipline,
appearance, and intelligence, cannot be found.
They afterwards visited the Tomb of Washington,
at Mount Vernon.
From an accident to the steamer Release% which
had conveyed the Regimept from Richmond, and
was to have taken them on to Washington, the in
tention of returning dhoti& to New York, by sea,
had to be abandoned. The moment that Captain
Lyle hoard of this, he renewed the invitation from
the National Guards of this city, which was as
freely accepted as given. A magnificent collation
was prepared at the National Guards' Hall, and
another splendid " timed" was ordered at the Gi
rard House.
The Seventh Regiment proposed leaving Wash
ington, vid Baltimore, Co as to arrive in this city
at half-past 11 o'clock A. M., on Saturday. The
National Guards reached the railway depot, Broad
and Prime streets, with the intention of escorting
the Seventh Regintent,their special guests, down to
their Hall. A great many persons assembled to
witness the agreeable and gratifying fraternisation
withal wee expected. The National Guards had
to watt (and actually did wait, without dining,)
until five P. M., when the oars same in, bring
iag,tius Mau'. 551.1 wee
Washington and Baltimore. There was a greeting
warm and rapid, between the Seventh and our
Guards, and an intimation that the former
must immediately go on for New York,
where, indeed, they were looked for at bait
past six that same evening, by the Camden and
Amboy Railroad, and where they were to be
met by nab of the regiment as had remained in
New York, by the 71st Regiment, by the City
Guard, and other 'corps.
Notwithstanding that Captain Lyle and the Na.
tional Guards had been on duty at the railway
depot for nearly seven hours, during the very
hottest day of the eoaeon, and must have been al
most worn out with fatigue as well as want of food,
they did not hesitate one moment, when they
learned bow straits stood, but, with one accord, for
there was not a minute's time for deliberation, they
all jumped upon the oars, proceeded with the 7th
down Prime Street to the wharf, accompanied
them in tho boat over to Camden, and remained
with them until eight P. H., when the 7th coca
'nomad their journey to New York. Their reoep.
tun there, as we learn from one of yesterday's
New:York papers,'*as gratifying in the extreme.
Broadway, from Canal street to the Battery, was
alive with people from an early hour in the even
ing until the arrival of the "Seventh" at about
two o'clock in the morning. The Battery and
every available spot of ground was crowded with
' those who wished to extend a soldier's welcome to
the flower of the New York volunteers As the
boat reached the dock the enthuelesm was un
bounded. The military were formed in the fol.
lowing order:
Troop of the National Guard.
Band of the fifty•fifth regiment.

National Guard escort, numbering two hundred
men in platoons—fourteen front.
First company -Captain Denyke.
Second company—Lieut. Harrison, ex-Lieut. Gif.

Third company—Lient. Vermilyea, ex-Lieutenant
Quackenbush.
Fourth company—ex-Captain Loutrell, ex-Lieut.
MOllvaine.
The Seventy-first Regiment, Colonel Vosburgh,
with Dodworth's Baud, marching in platoons.
The commandant of the National Guard batta
lion• gave the City Guard, Captain Hallock, the
right of the escort,
All along the route to the head quarters some
new demonstration of welcome was made. About
day-light the soldiers retired to their homes, really
tired out.
The Seventh Regiment, commanded by Col. A
Duryea, consists of eight well-effieered oompanies.
Rather more than half its full strength, together
with a full brass band and sixteen drummers,

Guards are a noble body of men, kept in admirable
discipline by full and frequent exercise, and so
well instructed in all that appertains to the mili

felt, by their deeds and discipline, that they were
no mere holiday soldiers. There is- a solidity and,
at the IMMO time, a dash about this company

INTERESTING FROM WASHINGTON
Correspondence erne Prom]
The letter of Jehu Jones on the subject of the
Tariff is a very'awkward trick; but it is like that
bungling and self-sufficient demagogue. Happily,
nobody will pay any attention to it. It is use
ful only as showing how far a man will go to rescue
himself from rain. With Jones, self-interest is
always first. lie is for free-trade hero, and for
protection in Reading. The vision that has haunt
ed him, like that which has haunted Bigler, is to
orawl so submissively at the.feet of • the .Southern
politicians us to secure their support for future fa.
yore. But the man that courts the South must
have ability and address to do it. If he is a quack
in polities, and does his work loosely and transpa
rently, he becomes an object of contempt. Such
men as Toombs and Davis have infinite contempt
for all snob advertisers for their bounty. Of this
class are Bigler and John. They started
for Southern favor at one and the same time—both
making the same stupid mistake, that whatever
they might do in Washington would be tolerated
in Pennsylvania. In the midst of their clownish
and complacent appeals to the fire-eaters, they
find that they have lost all their friends at home,
and when, panic-stricken at this, they fall down
on their knees to their immediate oohstituents.
the South turns on its heel, and leaves them to
their fate., The begging appeals of Jones and
Bigler, the one on the tariff, the other on the
Leoompton question, prove the truth of this asser
tion. There is nothing that is more certain to
command the respect of trhe South than the re
verse of all this toadyism.
Ri-Governor Bigler's appeals for support and
for union and harmony are refreshing. Ile de
serves no consideration at the bands of the people.
Perfectly aware that the President bad for twelve
years regarded him as his secret foe, anoiespecially
as the associate of his worst enemies, .Biglek set
about to give up all his profession's to got pos
. .
session of the patronage of the Administration.
and to ingratiate himself with Mr. Buchanan.
When he thought Mr. Buchanan was against Lo
eompton, he was against it, and he oven travelled
through Kansas to make out a ease of Adminis
tration support for himself, by backing Walker
and Stanton, going to the full extent. Then,
after pledging himself over head and hair, on
this side, be turned about in a moment, when he
heard that the President was for Leoompton.
You saw the sketch of his life in Harper's
Maga :ins, the object of which was to show
that Bigler was the confidential and inti
mate friend of the President. This was a new
spooks of subserviency. When Judge Douglas
differed from the President, Bigler rushed forward,
with sword in hand, to ORtOITRipatR him. Ile took
the business of executioner into his hands alone.
Ile was the Monsieur Samson, and he alone. No
one else should take the life-blood of the Little
Giant. Pitiable, most pitiable, was this scene.
A man who himself swore that the people of Han
sea should vote for their Constitution, and that if
they were denied this right, be would vote to
kWh Lecompton out of Oongress—this man
pushed himself forward to slay Judge Douglas,
and to proscribe all hie friends, alone because be
refused to abase himself by a dishonorable deser
tion of his principles. When shall Pennsylva
nians cease to blush for their representatives in
Powers
The fact about it is, the business of making a
trade of polities is the most acceptable to such
men as Jones andlligler. They have no other oh
je-t in life. What they had Is given up to the
mturable traffic of office and of patronage. To be
interested in jobs, to share with office-holders and
contractors—thets' are the objects of their night
and day work. I see that Senator Bigler was
here at the side of the President when the New
York regiment was reviewed. That is like him!
lie lingers around the foot-stool of power as one of
the lazsaroni lingers around the porches of the
wealthy in Italy, fearful of being absent, lest be
may lose, and some other beggar may gain.
I see that I. B. 'Lester, of Lancaster, is hero.
He was one of the old-line Whigs of the great old.
line Whig county, and voted against the Kansas.
Nebraska bill while a member of Congress in 1854.
He became a Buchanan man in 18.50. on the die•
tinot ground that the pledges of 1856, at Cincin
nati, should be fulfilled. Now that this • pledge is
not fulfilled, but broken, Mr. H. is an anti-Lecomp.
ton Democrat. Ho has boon very decided in the
expression of his opinion on this subject.

rural happiness and ease. Many things, in this
lovely town of the plain, are worthy of notice—
more, indeed, than can here well be referred to.
It is a place from whore attractions, as I feel
deeply, ono breaks off with undisguised reluc
tance.
Even in this secluded borough, however, the,
issues of party politics mite the loud debate a! ."
inspire to *wive ORDVASS. Lest evening Hon.
Hickman addressed in the large Hall of the
tiouttural Society, where Col. Forney is to speak
on Thursday next, an audience larger and more
enthusiastic even than did Howell Cobb during
theereoent Presidential struggle, vittierfin eloquent
terms he advocated the same principle of popular
sovereignty, and defended the same plank of the
Cirolnnati platrorm. In the comae of his remarks
ho showed from the record that this district
is not an exception to the strange truth which
latc, events have developed, that those who were
eager for the adoption of the WiLectot Proviso are
now more eager that slavery shall be imposed
upon the people of a Territory against their solemn
protest. In New York we have Hon. Jno. Coch
rane, Hon. John Dix, and others. It has not been
long ego that the former ran for Congress in oppo
sition to the compromite measures of 1850: nor
own it be fo'rgotten that in 1848 he submitted reso
lutions for the approval of the Befall) Abolition
Convention, that by their fanaticism, affrighted
even the Garrison school of politics themselves.
So it is in thin district: those who array them-
selves against Mr. Hickman for having stood. true
to his pledges that the people of Kansas should
determine their domestic b.stitutions in their own
way; those who are so anxious that the English
contrivance should be vitalized ; thotte who are in
favor of the admission of a slave State with only
40,000 population, and will refuse consent to the
coming in of n free State with less than 120,000
such indeed as Nimrod Strickland, Jo. 'Hemphill,
and others of less note, are the very men who
with might and main advocated the Wilmot Pro
viso ,and like heresies, and wore willing to ride
roughshod over the just rights of the South in
times past.
These aro they
,who essay to read out of the
Democratic party men upon whose escutcheon not
one stain of sectionalism has ever rested; but from

Hinges policy of the Administration . , It is reason
able to infer that their hopes of victory are ere.

dent hoe openly avowed that no more foreign ap.
pointments can be given to Pennayliania, for the
reason that she hats now her full 'share, it is not
unlikely that John Cochrane, Nimrod Strickland,
Henry M. Phillips, and the rest, are doomed to
sore disappointment, and will nol secure the
places over the water, large and small, which they
covet.
For an hour and three quarters Mr. Hickman
was listened to with the ni nit profound attention.
Ills earnest oratory, his clear exposition of his
case, his close logic, his rich illustrations, were
all worthy of commendation and fully up to his
reputation
It is said that Mr. Rickman has pursued a
course too frank, too independent, and too Demo
cratic for " my lord the Ring," and that, there
fore, it is the duly of the Federal office-holders,
the expeetants of favors and their little coteries
to fight him from the start. Their places are
staked upon tho result. A Republican rather
than Mr. Rickman—anything but his re-election,
for so whispers the Oliver Detains of power. But
he has none oilier to oppose him but these men.
Delaware he will carry with singular unanimity,
and his own-town will approve his course by a
largo majority. Of his nomination there is little
doubt, and of his re-election there is still less.
It is stated that the anti-Leoompton sentiment
begins to show bold front in the State of Dela
ware, which from this plane is just over the bor.
der. At first it was treated with neglect; but it
has grown into such proportions, and still continues
to increase, that' s before the day of election it may
very well cause serious alarm to those there who
sustain the adverse views. It is patent that the
principle needs only inquiry to secure its un
bounded triumph everywhere.
While this letter goes to you I will be on my re
turn to Washington, from which, for a brief space,
I have strayed, to refresh myself with a sight of

In front of the well-known sod recently refitted
Hotel at HaMburg Park, within a short distance
of the OitY.Gas Works. The &Amyl kill, just at
that point, pursues a winding way, as it hastens to
join the Delaware, and rolled far below our rest
ing-place. Mr. Edward Eastman, who has lately
become landlord there, had invited the editorial
corps to see Hamburg Park, where a new race
course, with a half-mile track, has just been com
pleted. It is a charmingly situated course, and
has the advantage of being wholly free to the
public. It is essentially The People's Course, and
is evidently destined to be very popular. The
track is broad, level, and compact. Mr. Eastman,
who entertains his guests very handsomely, is
well known as having been in principal charge,
for some years, of Copklin's Livery Stables.
The company, of which we formed one on Sa
turday, was conveyed to Hamburg Park, (which is
almost within hail of the Point Breeze course,
only nearer town,) in one of Mr. Conklin's Girard
House coaches, kindly supplied for the occasion.
Mr. George Hood was master of the ceremonies,
and a pleasant afternoon, during which we par
took of the hospitality of Mr. Eastman, wound up
with a delightful drive home, in the cool of the

from the centre of the city, and in °barge of a

Reception of Senator Douglas at Chicago—
Speech of Douglas on his Political Course.
Cumin°, July 9.—Senator Douglas was received
hero this evening with great display.
At ono o'clock P. M., a committee consisting of
four hundred, from Chiolgo and the adjoining
counties, proceeded to Michigan City, and thorn
met Judge Douglas and escorted him to the city.
The arrival of the train woe greeted by the
firing of cannon and the cheers of the people.
A procession wee formed, and Mr. Douglas was
ow:looted to the Tremont House. He wag bore
welcomed in a brief epeeoh in behalf of the citi
zens, by Charles Walker, Erg., President of the
Board of Trade.
Mr. Douglas, after returning thanks for the
warm reception he met with, reviewed the action
of tho last Congress on the Kansas bill. lie ex
tolled the Crittenden amendment as honest, the
very best proposition, and a practical illustration
of the doctrine of popular sovereignty.
He claimed that the struggle with Lecomptonlain
was for integrity and principle, and that the strug
gle was triumphant; Leoomptonisin is virtually
abandoned by Befriends, and it had been defeated
forever. He had opposed the English bill,
although it praotioally sent back the Constitution
to be accepted or rejected by the people, because
the manner se well tie the form of that submiesion
was at variance with every Jett principle of popu
lar government
It was the submission of the Constitution to the
people, with the threat that if they did net ao
oept the slave Constitution ' the thirty-five thou
sand inhabitants should no t form a free State, but
• wait until they numbered ninety-three thousand.
He could never countenance such discrimination
between free and slave States. The best energies
of his mind had been for several years devoted to
thereat principle of the rights of the people of
the Territories to frame their own fundamental
laws; and he intended to devote all his future life
in behalf of the same doctrine. Ho contended
that the Compromise Measures of 1850 were
founded on that principle, and carried out in the
Itansse-Nobraska bill He affirmed the Cincin
nati platform, re-affirmed President Buohanan'a
inaugural. lie regretted tq see, however, that a
powerful politiesl party of this opntry had de•
termined not to acquiesce in this line of policy.

popular sovereignty proolaimed that Congress, and
not the people of the Territories, should establish
the domestic Institutions of the Territories. Mr.
Lincoln endorsed not only this dootrine, but pro
claimed a line of policy which woe incompatible
with the existence of the Union. He had declared
that the Union, if divided into an equal number
of free and slave States, cannot endure. Mr.
Douglas showed the dangerous tendency of these
doctrines. It invited and proclaimed a war of
extermination by one motion against the other. He
regarded it tp , subversive of the fundamental priu
el pies upon which our complex system of govern
ment is rested. Ile denied that a uniformity of
ooal policy and domestic institutions in the
different Staten was either desirable or possible.
On the contrary, our political system rested upon
the theory and practice of dissimilarity in the
local policy and domeatio institutions of the diffe
ent States. Our forefathers clearly perceived
;i hat the domestic Institutions which suit New
.Hampahlre were totally unfit for the rice planta
' tient, of Carolina. Hence they adopted a Consti
tution which provides that each State be sove
reign and supreme in Its own limits, on the suppo
sition that they would be diversified es the States
grew more numerous. Thus, it would seem that a
diversity and dissimilarity in the domestic insti
tutions of sovereign States were the cardinal
principles underlying the whole system of govern-
ment. Its strength, harmony, and adaptation to
the wants and interests of the proplo all depended
on the right of each State to form and regolate
its internal polioy without reference to similarity
with other States lie repeated that uniformity
was neither desirable nor possible. If it were pos
sible, how could it be obtained? There in but one
process through which this could be accomplished ;
that would be to abolish State Legislatures, con
vert the tiovernment into ene consolidated Em
pire. Investing
Congress with full p'wer . to adopt
police regulations, to regulate the internal policy,
and to adopt domestic institutions for till the
States. Let this be done, and there would be uni
formity; then the States would be all free or all
slave; then negroes would vote everywhere; then
our glorious Confederation of thirty-two sovereign
States would be moved as one consolidated Empire
the uniformity of despotism would reign tri
umphant throughout the land!
Mr Douglas then proceeded to answer Mr. Lin
coln's crusade against the Supreme Court on ac
count of the Dred Scott decision. lie (Mr. Dou
glas) could sanotion no crusade against our highest
judicial till - tuned, and wits prep .red to yield obe

Iron Pavements--Something Novel and Im
portant. —Wo Submit the following proposition of
a gentleman. who is well and widely known, for
the consideration of our readers. We omit the
name of this gentleman for the presenting bin plan
is not one of speculation. but designed for public
advantage. outside of all exptmee s
The cobble stone or stones of irregular form. have
heretofore generally been adopted for street paving in
most large elite., and I Pink it will be universally con
ceded that they have failed to furnish snitreely one de
slush requisite, being expanalye. unsightly, muddy in
wet and duty in dry weather ; fregneatly regal fog re

miry destructive to both horses and vehicles. and Jolt

An a substitute. both • ond and granite blocks have

altogether; the latter has mod'iled the evil in some .10-
urea but It is far from being entirely satis'aotoey In
many important respects Now. sof every one must ad
mit the i nportance of a substitute that would r ff .ctsually
remove these difficulties, I desire to call attention to a
plan of city pavement which has been carefully ex
amined by many gentlemen qualified to judse In smell
matters and they unite in the opinion that. so far no a

The gentlemen who has matured this plan states
many more advantages—it not being expensive,
its saving of horse flesh and carriage wear, its im
provement of the appearance and health of the
city, its possessing all the advantlges of a railroad,
and others " too numerous to mention."
T's be .Retained.—Mayor Henry, on Satur
day, notified Mr William Russell that he would
be retained as a detective officer during the pre
sent administration. We are gratified to make
this announcement, inasmuch as the city govern
ment could not well dispense with the services of a
gentleman whom many years of native experience
in police business of every description hiss ren
dered ono of the most successful and efficient de
tectives in the Union. Mr Russell deservedly en
joys the good opinion of all those with *hom he is
brought in contact; for he is courteous, prompt,
and skilful. Some of his detective operations have
resulted very advantageously to parsons who hod
been swindled out of thousands of dollars and
have brought to speedy justice pickpockets,-bur
glars, forgers, counterfeiters, panel thieves, mur
derers. and criminals of every grade. For many
years Mr. Russell has been untiring in his atten
tion to the onerous duties of his position. He is
quiet and mild in his walk and manner, but qtyck
and shrewd in his observation. We have beard of
some of hie official exploits that in point of inge
nuity equal any that can be found on record. But
ire will not in this place commend Mr. Russell or hie '
numerous good deeds. Any person who iB familiar
with the police history of Philadelphia for a num
ber of years past will unhesitatingly say that
Mayor Henry, in retaining Mr. Russell as a lead
ing detective, has wisely consulted the beat in
terests of the municipality of which he is the
ohosen bend.
The Schuylkill Wafer.—Complaints are
made in some quarters, in relation to an inadequate
supply of Schuylkill water. By a. recent visit to
the neighborhood of Fairmount, we learned that
the reservoirs were in excellent order, with the
water in each abodt a foot below the regular
gauge. We were informed that some difficulty
existed in regard to the mains and supply-pipes.
which are considered as Inadequate for present
use It has been suggested that a largo tank be
erected, say fifteen or twenty feet higher than any
of the present reservoirs, and that this be kept
constantly supplied by the agency of a stationary
engine and pump. The effeot would be, by ele
vating the head of water, to increase the force and
rapidity of its flaw through the pipes. We trust
that the subjeot will meet the prompt attention of
Councils. A constant supply of pure water is not
only essential to health, but it constitutes one of
the greatest luxuries of civilized life.
accidents.—Daniel McNamara, aged seven
teen yearn, was admitted to the Pennsylvania lion.
pital on Saturday, having bad bin left shoulder
blade fractured by falling from a wagon, at Ship
pen-street wharf.
On Saturday night a man named John Forman,
while attempting to get off one of the earn of the
West Philadelphia Passenger Railway, fell, and
was run over. The wheels parsed over his left
thigh, brenkine the bone. The sufferer wan taken
to the Pennsylvania Hospital. Re has a family.

Philadelphia.
Highway Robbery.:--On Saturdayruorning, a
young man named James Helscolbergar. was before
Alderman Freemen on the charge of r - mitting
an &emit and battery upon Ephraim Hurst, and
also highway robbery. Hurst was attacked on
Thursday night, on the wharf, knocked down.
stabbed in the head with an oyster knife, robbed
or his watch and a five•doller note. and then
thrown overboard Ho was resound. The accused
was identified as the man who out the watch
chain. He wan held In 'sl,ooo bail to answer at
court.
Independence MlL—With the advent of the
newly clew's I Commissioner of City Property, we
notice a •banjo in the superintendence of this no
ble edifice, Mr. W. Moran, Sr., being chosen to
take it in charge. He will enter upon his ditties
at coos. Mr. Moran Is known to the publio as an
intelligent, high-toned gentleman, possessed nf
every qualification necessary to make a good offi
cer. Having occupied the same position for two
yeare before with great credit to himself and to
the gratification of viattere, the ohoioe may be
considered an excellent one.
Arrest of Pickpockets.—On Saturday morn
ing Officers Russell and Bunting arrested several
niokpeckets in the western market, and at the
Pennsylvania Railroad depot. They gave their
names as James Connell, alias Carr, alias Irish
Jimmy; Charles Wilson, alias Thaokaray ; je ll .
James, William Young, and Washington Room
They wore taken before an aldermen, who emu
milted them for thirty days as vagrants, and or
dered each one to enter bail in $5OO to be of good
behavior.
Burning of a Tow Boat.—At a late hour on
Saturday night, the tow boat Rappahannock, from
Philadelphia, wee burned at the mouth of the river
Schuylkill. t The persons on board escaped with
out Wary. Some sixty tattles were burned to
death. low the fire originated and the extent o

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
THE MONEY MARKET.
PHILADELPHIA, July NI, NM.
The market for stooks in New York having
measurably improved, our own has sympathised
with the movement to some extent, though buyers
are scarce at the improved rates. Among opera
tors there seems to be littledispositiOn for either
specilaticin ,or investment.. A good
,many have
gone away for the summer vacation, and there is
little prospect of activity until the return of cooler
weather. -
, •
The temporary demand for money occasioned
by the throwing of three days into one, at the and
of lest week, haying passed away, the market has
reverted to its fernier condition, capital beibg in
large supply, and the offerings of good paper quite
meagre. First-class names on endorsed paper sell
readily at 4b to 5 per cent.. but of such mar se
this there is very little making..
The Herald says;
The informal - conference which bas been hold at
the St. Niobolaa Betel between the Presidents of
the New York Central, Erie, Pennsylvania Cen
tral. and Baltimore and Ohio Railroads was closed
on Wednesday—nothing having - been aecomplifla
ed. It would appear that, as matters now stand,
'the feelings of the parties concerned ore Pomewb at
embittered,..and arrangements which might b.,
easily corm:nmated between friends or strangers
nre "not easily perfected between men who dia.
like and distrust each otheK But for this II o
May convention might no doubt be re-enacted
and fairly -carried into effect. Whatever pre
sent consequences may be, there can -ho no
question but - the existing rivalry can do
no ultimate good to any one save to those high
principled directors of the Erie who earn their
living by depreciating that stock and the Central.
This must sooner or later be disoovered by the
stockholders; and - a compromise effected ; round
policy, and a faithful regard for these great enter
prises, would suggest that it ought to be at least
attempted without delay. On Thursday next it is
understood that a fresh eff, rt - will be made by the
presidents of the Pennsylvania Railroad, and the
Baltimore and %lo t to adjait matters; we see no
reason why these efforts should not be' sneeessfol,
unless the bear interestin the Erie direetion should
have wholly overpowered n aP :other considerations

The Minors' Journal says of the Schuylkill
coal trade :
The quantity sent by railroad this week is 31,-
024.00—by canal 31,886 06—for the week, 62,910.
06 tons, showing .a lass of .14.765 tons compared
with the corresponding week last year.
All the regions lose for the week compared with
last year, except the Scranton, which gains a
little upwards of 5.000 tons.. - The Lehigh Valley
Railroad gained 1.370 tons, but-tire "canal 'loses
2,930 tons The Scran'on trade. South has in
creased this year 80,000 toot, while the trade
North has diminished 35,000 tons.
The trade continues to decrease weekly com
pered with last year, and the-loss for the season
from the above-mentioned regions this year, so
far. has reached 203,572 tone. -
The Northern Central Railroad has been opened
to Sunbury, and now conneete with the Shamokin
and Sunbury Railroad, wbioh gives that region
meat to the Southern market by railroad. The

Much discussion is going On in New York as to
the prospector dividends from the leading West
ern railroads, and figures are adduced to prove
both sides of the controversy. A skilful turn of
the'pen, or an estimate thrown in among a bundle
of facts, make the results vary all the way fromrli
per cent. aemi•annual dividends down to inability
to pay the interest on their bonds. The discus
lion is hardly profitable enough outside of the
New York stock market, to warrant us in following
these able mathematicians through the records of
their labors.
At a meeting of the New York Clearing * Home,
held, on Thursday afternoon, application was made
for readmission by the ,Mechanics' Banking As•

application was refused, there being ten adverse
votes out of about thirty 7 three or four banks re
pro anted.
The Herald says that the ground of the refuel
(which was in the teeth of a favorable report on
the bank by the Clearing House Committee) ap
pears to have been : first, that the bank had won
a bad name, and needed a term of probation: and
secondly, that its capital, $300,000, was too small
for a Wall•street bank. It . ia hardly necessary to
notice these objections. The former is applicable
to a school boy, not to a bank ; the litter can 0 111 i
be appreciated by the largo banks, which may
naturally desire to prevent the establishment of
new banks to divide the business with them, But
as It is evident th . at so publie'anci important an
institution as the Clearing House ought not to be
swayed by, considerations of this character, the
event will, In aU probability, lead to an applica•
on - ce - `be-ceeteteee-revette eeection Elf the
Clearing Homo into a public' institution, under
rules established by law Seth a change would
present many advantages.

PHILADELPHIA MARKETS, July 10—Eve
ning.—The market for Breadetuffs is without
muoh change. Flour is very dull to-day, but
prices exhibit no alteration, and the only sale we
hear of for export, is 150 hbla single extra at 84.62 i
per bbl, which is the general asking price; stand
ard brands are freely offeral at $4.25 without
finding buyers, for export there being no inquiry.
The trade are buying 'moderately at about previ
ous quoted rates, and sales of 500 bbl. choice
Western extra have been made for home use at
$5 per bbl. Corn Meal is steady and firm at $3 37
per bbl for Pennsylvania meal,
_but there is very
little selling. Rye flour is scarce and firm at $3.31
per bbl. In Wheat there is very little doing, and
the market is dull and unsteady, the millers gen
erally being disposed to hold off for lower prices,
and only about 1,500 bushels old Southern have
been sold at 08 cents for fair Reds and 1130 for
pied white. Some small lots of New Southern
offered to-day, and sold at 1083 for primeißsd, and
125 e for White. -Rye is dull and lower, with sales
of 2.000 bushels Pennsylvania at 68c. Corn con
tinues matte, and in request, with sales of about
1,600 bushels Yellow, mostly made last evening, at
80a6le, the latter for priine Pennsylvania, afloat;
Oats are also wanted, and about 5.000 bushels
Pennsylvania sold at 410, afloat. Bark—there Is
nothing doing ; the stock is light, and holders ge
nerally refuse $3O for first No. 1. Cotton—there
is not mush doing, owing to the firmness of holders
and high rates now demanded for fine Cottons,
which aro scarce, and only about 150 bales are re
ported at fully former quotations. Groceries—the
market Is firm, with a fair demand for Sugar at
full prices, and a very light stork to operate in •
Provisions—there is father more firmness in the
market, and a small business doing at former quo
tations. Whiskey is scarce at a further advance,
small sales of bbls having been made at 251)2643,
the latter for Prism ; Ude at 25e, and Drudge at
21e per gallon.
