Have tho elections in Indiana, lowa, Omo, and Pennsylvania, bewildered “the organ?” If, as a result of the elections in those States, it maintains, after its bitter and vindictive as saults upon Douglas, a grave-like silence on Illinois politics, and In iW bewilderment ac cuses the Tammany Democracy of lip-service, what must be Its deplorable condition when the returns come in next Tuesday from Michi gan, Massachusetts, New York, New Jersey, Illinois, and Delaware?

Btatr King, on » The Laws of Disorder.” Before commencing tbs lecture, a lurid and into ‘resting statement was made, by Mr. Edward R Hawkins, preiident of tho “ Literary CongteM,” under whose auspices tbe ieoturo wss delivered. Mr. King appeared at lbs desk greeted with ap plause! .... In opening, he e aid he had chosen for his sub ject “ the Laws of Disorder," net from any love of paradox, hut rather to consider the real harmony of What was apparent oonfusion.' We had no true oonoeptton of the universe until ye saw that ail in it waa changing Whatever in nature we ohose to look upon, wo found Interlaced «ith a continuous succession of mutations. Taking 'or example, the solar system,- which seemed to So the most punotnal thing in the universe, and ?ot it wos true that every .orb,within it varied Its path every year. Could wo stand just outside the rook of these orbs, we should be presented with a -eene wbiob tbo toughest mathematician could not unravel. . The thought hero Iptrodnood was, that the most seemingly confused and irregular processes of ns uro were governed by a law so perfect, that with ail;lts apparent confusion, soienoe had learned, in'many oases, to. predict their futuio results. . Nothing in. nature was exaotly in aooordanee vith our notions of- perfect order. Tbe earth was thicker at tbe equator tbap at the poICB. Tbe magnetio needle did not point exactly toward the north pole, but a little, to one side of it. 8o too, -he most excessive boat, though criminating in the torrid lone, was net reached precisely at the equator,' but a little to ope side of it. • ' Tbo doctrine., of, obasoe-Hif Atheism against nrobsbility—wbb thus illustrated. - Though all nature should seem to be full of disorder, yet tho results ;of that disorder presented \ harmony altogether beyond the probabi lities of ohaneo. As well, eaid ho, might we imagine a basket of letters raised into tbe air and emptied out to'desoend like snow-flakes and ar ranging .themselves into Die tragedy of M&obeth iM to expect that all tbe arrangements of nature iround us produced tbe results we see by tbe mere neoidentof ohance. Speaking of the regularity atlaohtd to the num ber of the sexes, and traolng the relative numeri cal preponderance of one over the other, at differ ent ages, there was, said he, a graceful and or derly fringe of irregularity, Burroundmg a most porfecfc system.

CM greatest boast of our country—ihe truth, too, of wh’ch Intelligent foreigners admit—is that we are tape el-l>y courteous and kind to woman. And yet it was not entirely just; hot but that we have a delicate con sideration and deep devotion for her, but such conduct was often dictated by motives of mere selfishness.

Dear Sin : I received, this morning, your let ter of the 28th and 2pth ult, written as chairman of the Democrat!* State Committee ot Illinois, also one from Mr. V llickox, who informs mo that he is a member of the same committee. My Absence from homo will acoouut for tho delay of this answer In theso leltors it is said that I am reported to havo oxpresaod a desiro that Mr. Douglas shall de feat Mr. I.moolu, in their contest for u seat in tho Senate of the United States, and a willingness to visit Illinois, and make public spceohes in aid'of suoh result; and if these reports are true, I Am invited to deliver addresses at certain point6in the State. The rumor of my readiness to visit Illinois, and address the people in tho present canvass, is with out foundation. I did not proposo to leave Kon tuoky for the purpose of mingling in the political diflouEfrionB of other States. Tho two or thfeo apeeahea whioh I delivered recently in this Stale, rested on peculiar grounds, whioh I need not n6w discuss. The other rumor to which you refor is true.' I have often, in conversation, expressed the wish that Mr Douglas may suocoed over his Republi can oompotitor. But it is due to oaodor to say that this preference is not founded on his oourse at tho late session of Congress, and would not If I supposed it would bo otmalrued as an endorse ment of the attitude whioh he then chose to as sume towards hia party, or of all tho positions he has taken in the present oanvaes. It is not neces sary to enlarge on these things. I will only add, that my preference rests mainly on tbeßo consider ations: that the Kansas question is practically ondod—that Mr. Douglas, in reoent speeches, has explicitly declared his adherence to the regular Domoora'io party organization—that he seems to bo tho candidate of the Illinois Democracy, and the most formidable opponent in that St ite of the Republican party, and that on more than eno oc casion during his public life he has dofended the Union of the States and the rights of the States with fidelity, courage, and great ability. I have not desired to say anything upon this ot any other subjoatabout which a difierenoe mov bo supposed to exist is the political family, but I did net feel at liberty to decline an answer to the oourteons letter of yonrooromlUes.

SEVENTH PAY OF TAB SESSION, EIGHTH DAT. ■ ' The Thiitieth Street Tragedy t' - [From the New York Bxpreea of lost eveniug} J A difficulty had occurred between the father and son a few days since, in consequeooe of some not of the latter, which oalled forth a reprimand. The son, Frank Gonldy, a young man about twenty years old, oame home on Tuesday evening about ten o clock, and retired tb hia room apparently in good humor.* Rumor says that he wanted money from hia father, which waa refused, whereupon he managed to obtain the bank-book, and took U to his room. During his absence, the father got the book and P 0e^ t Jn * !s proper location. Having missed it when ho came to his room, it la supposed that Frank beoamo infuriated, and, having armed himself with a hatohet, oame down to the room where the family had assembled and about to re . tiro; Indeed, the mother had retired, and tho father was putting out tho gas in the hall. ! Frank then struck the father two blows on the , head with the batobet, by which the brain was pe . netrated. Tbe old man fell instantly, and the boy oalled for hU mother, and when she arrived bo 1 struok her also on the head three times, apparent • Iy, as there are three serious wounds on the head, 1 one of whioh penetrated tbe brain. ( Tho Doieo aroused a younger brother, aged four* » teen, who came in with nothing on but his Bhirt [ and pantaloons, and waa immediately struok in, tho same manner, the blow penetrating the skull • and exposing tbe brain. A still younger boy, aged • six. also received & blow on tbe top of his hood 1 whioh penetrated tho brain. i The fact was lhat ho struok every person who f came near him, and all on the head, including tbe two servant girls. A sister escaped the frantio man by looking hersolf and two iaf&nt children in hor room. Having finished his diabolical work, he returned to hia own room and shot himself through the head, tho ball entering the right temple. | The cries of murder alarmed some of the neigh bors, who broke in the front door, and found tho t lights all extinguished, the servant girls eoream ing and sorlously wounded, and the father lying i on the floor almost dead. The mother was laid upon tbe bed, and appeared to be in a precarious i condition. Drs. Harmon, Van Buren, Lewell, Austin and Oampbell. were immediately ou the spot, and dressed the wounds of the several vlotims. They are all alive, oxaept the son and the servant girl alfhded to above, but they nre in a most precarious condition.

When they entered, the tragedy had been com pleted. Only two sisters of the murderer had eroapod injury. They had remained in thoir room, and thus avoided falling under his notioo. Whon young Gould came homo, tho family had retired, except the father, who let him in, reprov ing him for his irregularity, and then fastened the door for the night. Francis went .up stairs, donned a dressing gown, and, after a little while, procured a hatchet, oame down and attacked his father, splitting ijis skull with one Ijlow. jfo nopt turnod upqn his mother, mutilating her horribly, and then, with indiscriminate fury, attacked all who came in his way. Hia oldest brother received -a blow on the skull, whioh will unquestionably prove fatal. A younger brother and two servant girls also wore terribly wounded. He then re turned to his own room, and ooDßummated the tragedy by taking bis otm life. The older Qquldy had been q lumber merchant, but had retired from business some years sinoe with a competence. His family had been well brought up, he bad displayed great solicitude In the career of his son. Francis had been placed In a lawyer’® office, but. not liking the profession, bad boon taken away and a situation procured for him in a hardware store- Oautaiu Oufty, of the Twentieth preoluot, states tH«t he was well ac quainted with him, and had had him with himself in a real estate office, in the lower part of tbo town, some years ago, just before he had decided to ohoose mercantile pursuits- The young man had not acquired bad habits at the time, and is said to have been free from the use of intoxioating drinks. It appears, however* that for some time past he had been accustomed to stay from late atuight, whioh had been souyoe of much apprehension In his family. His father had repeatedly remonstrated, and ohidefd hint, assuring him that ho would de stroy his ebaraoter and min his future prospeots by such irregularities. Thero being 'no amend ment of his conduct, the father assured him that it could not be tolefatod; thfit he mast become steady and regular. ' ■ ‘ Rumors came at length to Ws parents that Francis had been seen at disreputable places, and in improper company. This reused the 014 geo* tleman’s tomppr* qnd ho began to ooptemplate more dccidoj action. H°'bad a fearful alterca tion with his'son, who IMt tlio hnu&o,* morose and sulky, muttering vengeance.

There are now one hun d *ed and nineteen children under instruction, who have iweu sent here by parents either through necessity or choice.

Tbe health of tbe inmates has been remarkably good, the hooping-cough having been the only disease to contend with daring the year The large number of children here mentioned as having been returned to their pa rents or friends is owing to the heavy financial crisis of ** s ., J rfl * r depriving so many persons of work.

Dork is a boy. The Alltbone and Ntithatl Cast —Mr. M. Russell Thayer argued to the court the demurrer filed by him as counsel for Mesam. AlUbone and Newhall. The first point argued by.Mr Thayer was that the act of tssem bly, patted m the year 1350, says that “ the office™ of any such bank ** or may be puuished for embcrsle meats, and that this law does npt apply to the Bank of Pennsylvania* as it waa not I’ocorpctated by this act of Aasemblj, This baofctrts originallycharterel lathe year 1793, for twenty years, and rechartered In 1813 for twenty more joirs, aud rgain recharte'ed in 1830 for twenty-five years, which will bring its charter up to the year T BsB s And therefore the act of Assembly passed in iB6O does not apply to this bsnk.

Tbe demurrer filed in this case is in tho following words: The Common wealth or Pennsylvania vs Thomas AUibore and Thos A. Newhali. And now, October 2Tth, 1868, the said Thomas A.

The ficxie of the expacted-to-be-great sale of ennsylraaj* Bank building hag formed the staple o conversation in moneyed circle a to-day, and indeed, mong all olapsea of the community. The assignees a»v^ e^ r *^ T re^art^ *s having been put into ft rathe,, Ti»rsnn by the action of the creditors, arfl nJ ° na at ® * x P«ssed as to the propriety of thmvm-JT 80 In y* e lding to such dictation, after so Overusing a peremptory sale The weP who km enj3 toatfon of character of the MBignees, r B «/r” D,oflh r' to seated Irom J” P UT P°*°i n>«k« their decUion the more remark. th,t ,I ‘* not to sell for ler, than tvohnndred thousanddoHareMmeonSlond.,,end that the reaaon why it rrae not made puhllo InTneada.’a papera that a bid for a leaa «nm would not be reoei.ed was, that the assignees, np to the latest hours, were endeavoring to Induce th* creditor* to withdraw their notice. This was not only signed by the Attorney General of the Commonwealth, which is a claimant for some seventy thousand dollars, and assume] to be a preferred creditor, hat also by the officers of several of ; the cityb&nhs, including, we believe, the Philadelphia, Farmers’ and Mechanics’, North America, Northern Liberties, Commercial, Western, Penn Township, City, Commerce, Mechanic!’, and perhaps others. Tbe only individual signature to It was that of Charles Blaoiles tor, Brq., as agent for George Peabody Sc (Jo. Tbe an nouncement made by tho auctioneer, in consequence of this notice, was &s follows: . u At tbe requestol tbe Commonwealth of Pennaylva> nia, a creditor of the Bank of Pennsylvania, mode by the Attorney General, and of oth«r creditors, notice Ir hereby giv«n, that no bid for the premises now offered for sal* will be accepted, and none need be tendered, unlera the same b© for at least the sam of two hundred tboDsand dollars.’ 1 Perhaps this document is one of the most carious papers in the whole budget of curiosities In the history of the Pennsylvania Bank failure. What good wo* hoped to bo effected by it, no one can conceive. Tbe universal expectation In the room was that the building would have sold for largely more than the price thus put upon the bank, and the sporting fraternity hod wagers pending npon its eelllDg for a quarter of a mil lion of dollars. A large number of parties were la at. tendance realy to bid upon It, but the announcement of a limit at $200,000 bad tbe Immediate effect to impieu the idea upon their minds that tbe building oould be bought for that mm, and no assurances of the assignees to the oontrai7 served to dfwbuso them of the opinion. Henoe aobody would start tbe building at a bid of that amount, to run It higher, and the whole sale woalurned Into a farce. In Scotland, it Is a customary practice, which body there understands, to affix what is called an price to realestate at public sales, at which the bidding commences. Zt Is there p-rfeetlj well understood that the op-set price fa not to be taken as a guide to the amount of aooey at which the property can be bought at private sale, and tbe only practical effect is to save the time of the auctioneer, and keep him from dwelling on Qgelensly low bids by parties not really desiring to purchase. Bat for what reason the sapient gentlemen who rule In Philadelphia hank parlors took occasion to help introduce this custom Into America, at the time of ft sale so Important aa that last night, it would probably puazle even themse’vea to tell. It killed the asle, and will In all likelihood prevent the assignees from realising aa mueb money as they otherwise would hare received for the property. Acting upon the opinion that $300,000 would buy the building, several patties, to-day, have, as we are in formed, offered that sum to the assignees, who, as they ptomlsed at the sale last sight, have peremptorily re fused It. If Ur. Thomas bad been left to make the sale last night, we hare no doubt that th* property would bare been finally disposed of for at least a quarter of a million of dollars.
