Gen. Fosrat'S Somerset speech as follows :

These words of the Custom-Home paper

tuition , State Central Committee. This fact
Jmates the denial of the Cuitom House paper
aliiiesteemi-oglialal, and alone induces us to
notice it. ±
The report of the speech of Harr D.
Femme, et Somerset, remisYlvania, published
in Tau Pails of Friday last, in which he
placed 'Minitel squarely upon the Douglas
, platform, was furnished to us by Joutt D.
Ronny, Esq. of Somerset—one of the most
intelligent Democrats, and one of the most
trustworthy citliens in the mountain counties
of our State.' General' Tonna himielf will
vouch for Mr. Roan's integrity and veracity,
as he is one of his firmest and ablest friends.
< The question now , arises, whether General
Foirsikaithorised this denial or contradiction
in4be Cwitom-House newspaper? There must
be no more baulking or boggling on this sub
jset. , •
We have not objected to the free-and-easy
plan of sinking the Presidential issues in
tie October election, in order that General
Foam may be made Governor of Pennsyl
vania, because, , novel as this plan is, it
originated in le good intentions." We have
gone 'far out of our way, as an inde
pendent, journal, to help General Foe
ran, 'gladly ignoring his own disorganizing
example in 1867, when he broke a regular no
mination to avenge a personaldisappoiniment,
because we believe he is sincerely attached to
the Nematode! interests" of Pennsylvania, and
because belabored honestly for those interests
in Washington during the last winter and
spring. We have even latterly consented to
Jet him take his course as between DOUGLAS
and BRITMELNRIDGE,
.in the Presidential can
vais, taking itforgranted that be sympathized
with his own Democratic people in the West,
whfi are for DOUGLAS, with rare exceptions.
Butwo . nrill not permit any man, not even
General roma, to place us in the attitude of
misrepresenting hib opinions by fabricating
reports of his speeches. We have not forced
our doctrines upon him. - We have not de
manded of blmle speak out for Dornmes, the
regular Democratic candidate for President.
.We have only demanded that he should not
tend himself to a plot by which the suffrages
of the Democrats of this State should be
traded MU fora rank Disunion movement, and
f.,r an impudent and irregular nomination.
How;as we have said the article in the fins
forn=lionsaPePer derlyea significance from the
fAct that -that paper is the mere reflection
`of a 'few men in office, with whom General
pOsm is in . daily communion, and it also :w
-ahines a certain importance Ist connection
alththe rumor, unhappily too well authentica
ted, that : lie favors a fusion electoral ticket,
which, appointed upon the moral obligation to
ku'Pri,st , the regular Democratic candidate for
president, is intended to destroy him.
The earnest friends of Judge Dolmas, how
ever they may deplore Gen. Foam's weak
ness in constantly consulting with the enemies
of that illustrious Statesman, gladly greeted
hie:HOmeiset speech infavor of the great prin
cipleef self-government; and they deed, and
stand, readj- to vote for him upon that avowal.
hat there musette no marked cards, no loaded
dice, Millis great game. General POSTER can
not run upon two platforms, He cannot make
a speech in Somerst sAd disavow it in Phila
delphia. •He cannot get the tens of thousands
of . voles of the,Donglas Democrats by catering
for the contemptible Breckinridge minority.
His silence might have carried him through ;
but when he' will talk, it Must be with no
fOrki tongue. Does he stand by his Somer
set Speech, or does he repudiate it I
That is the question. He mutt - answer it,
or the people will do it for, him in October.

D. B. Dickinson, of Bingh amton, Broome
oounty, is represented in the Now York °adorn
bhoss,. by Auburn Birdsall, his son•in.law, who
draws from the General Government, with salary
and 'editor's, some 820,000 per annum; a brother of
Daniel 8. is Deputy Naval Officer, a position
worth between three and four thousand dollars
year; Ausbnrn Blrdsall's brother has, si good
berth in the plaoe of entry clerk, with two or
three thousand ayear. Auburn Birdcall's bro •
ther•in•law is a United States weigher, which is
worth. three or fear thousand dollars a year, and
on the first of Augusta potion by the name of
Murray, a recently acquired son•in-law of Daniel
'B., wits provided with - a profitable position in the
Now York custom house. Samuel G. (loortney,
another son•ln-law of Mr. D., is is rumored, is to
b 3 provided for shortly, is a small consolation for
his overwhelming defeat when running for the
°Zoe of District Attorney of Ajbauy county. Who
tys the Dickinson family is not well provided
for?"
This man Drournsos is the chief execu
tioner of the Administration in New York;
and, having_ been all his. life, till 1856, the
personal foe of President BUCHANAN, be
ought to be well paid for his present patriotic
partisanship. The families in Pennsylvania
who enjoy the felicities of the Administration

most pious policy, are generally modelled
after the Dickinson 'Pattern. We have any
Number of them who enjoy the favor and
buk - in the sunshine of the President. Some
of them have been directly provided for with
a lovish liberality, the extent of which J. B.

end to Ids sacking talent, and no limit to his
ingenuity. The more be gets the more he
shouts ibißrisorcuraron and against DOUGLAS;

The DeelatiA in. the *aloe of Gold.
There is finch tinth:lnthe old saying that
i tt jy ca *e aa i dropping ofivater will wear away
a stone, NOthing is Mere Inevitable than the
eveeetuff accoMplishmeat, of any f iven reef&
which apprOlWhitif and 'effective causes are
constantly and unremittingly laboring to pro
duce, although their progress may be a very
slow and gradual one. We have become so
aceustomed to seeing. the announcement he.
raided on the arrival of California steamers
week after week, and month after month, that
they bad on board a million or a million and a
half of dollars in gold, that it calls forth no re
flection on the tendencies of this constant in
crease of the world's available stock of pre
clone metals, and excites no emotion save in
the breasts of the fortunate consignees.
And yet, bound together as the whole ci
vilized world is at the present day by the close
Commercial relations which exist between all
quitters of the globe, a slow but sure and
subtle influence is being exerted upon all
clatses by the steady success which attends
the 'mimeo of the gold-seekers of California and
Australia. The fruits of their toil are not
all consumed in supplying their personal
wants and advancing their individual for
tunes, but the precious metal which they ex
tract from the earth goes forth to perform a
mission of its own, and is almost as potent, pe
netrating, and rapid in its circulation through
all the ramifleations of commerce as the pre
parations of quicksilver in the human system.
There was much discussion, shortly after
the discovery of the California mines, of the
question whether the great increase of the
prodection of gold would not diminish its
value; butes no very extraordinary and strik
ingproota of such a result were afforded, and
as the eagerness of the demand for it was ap
parently unabated, it became evident that no
immediate and destructive change was to be
feared, and, therefore, the question was qui
etly dismissed from most mon'a minds, as ono
of but little practical importance. It has re
cently, however, been thoroughly discussed
by AL Cinivazisa, a distinguished French poli
tical economist, and from the statements be
has made and the arguments he has presented,
it is difficult, if not impossible to resist the
conclusion that gold has already depreciated
in value, and that this depreciation will con
tinue until very important results will be
effected.
Of course, it is not pretended that the 'uni
versal desire for gold,. and delight in its pos
session, which have characterized mankind
from the remotest periods of antiquity, will be
sensibly diminished, but that the amount of
purchasable commodities which will be given
fur a certain qulatity of gold' will gradually
decline. After making all due allowance fer
the increased consumption of gold in wm
factures, in jewelry, plate, watches, eteVand
its increased use as a circulating medium in
many countries, still its present rate of pro
duction greatly exceeds the natural demand
for it at its present price, and if continued
during the next forty or fifty years, as is pro
bable, will produce changes which all thought.
ful business' men
. should provide for even in
some of their present transactions.
It is a well-known fact that the influx of
gold and silver into Europe, after the disco
very of America, eventually produced a
I marked depreciation in the value of those me
tals. This fall, from the time Columbus dis
covered America up to the present day, is
estimated to have amounted, in silver, to a
decline to one-sixth its former value, and in
gold, to one-fourth its former value. During
this period, the total amount of gold and silver
obtained in America, and elsewhere, is esti
mated at $8,000,000,000. But, at the present
time, the annual supply of gold and silver ex
ceeds s2oo,ooo,ooo,California and Australia
alone furnishing about three-fourths of that
amount. At this rate, in forty years there
will be, a larger additlen to the stock of tho
precious metals than during the four centuries
previous to the discovery of California; and
however much the natural results of this in
creased production nig be temporarily modi
fied by various circumstances, it is not rea
sonable to suppose that they can be entirely
evaded.
During the last tell years at least $1,000,-
000,000 in gold and silver has been mined, and
already it has produced a sensible effect upon
our country. Meanwhile, there have been
business convulsions which have wrought
great changes in the current prices of many
articles; but underlying them all there has
been a gradual advance in the price of most
things, which practically amounts to a dimi
nution in the value of money. This will be
apparent to any one who compares the value
of a Axed income before the discovery of the
California mines and at the present time.
Nearly all over the country the absolute neces
sity of increasing salaries has been discern
ed, and in many cases acted upon. Mechanics .
engaged m moat trades receive larger wages
now than previous to 1848. Property in many
quarters of the Union, where no speculative
mania exists, and where there has been no in
crease of population through emigration, and
no important improvements, has still advanced
in 'nominal value from this same cause.
The parties most likely to be pecuniarily
benefited by this decline in the value of gold
are those who borrowed money or purchased
property when the precious metals were com
paratively dear, and who, by. long credits, are
enabled to postpone repayment until they be
come comparatively cheap. Thus corpora
tions, States, and individuals, who contracted
loans at remote periods, will reap a decided
advantage at the expense of the creditors who
depend upon the fixed income they derive
from interest. The State debt of Pennsylva
nia, the debt of oar city, or the debts due by
any sound corporations, will gradually become
less and less of a burden upon those responsi
ble for their payment, not only because popu
lation and wealth increase among us, but also
because gold will become more plentiful, and
will require less labor and sacrifice to purchase
it. Irredeemable ground-rents and mortgages
will gradually depreciate in value ; not that
they will sell for less money than formerly, or
yield lees interest, lint the fixed income derived
from them will purchase fewer of the comforts
and luxuries of life than formerly. '
We might elaborate at length the probable
effects of the potent cause we have alluded to,
but prefer to leave our readers to do that for
themselves. In this country, where most men
are obliged , to carve out their own fortunes,
and where comparatively few aro enabled to
live upon ',the flints Of the labors of their an
cestors, the increase of the product of the
precious metals will greatly tend to promote
the material interests of the country. It will
constantly quicken enterprise, open up new
avenues of•profftable industry, and smooth for
many the rough path to fortune. It will also
render the repayment to European capitalists,
of the heavy debts our country owes them,
comparatively easy.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 3,1880.
In several of my previous letters I referred to
the present position of Governor Wise. It has not
been demi with an illiberal spirit; neither has ir
been my intention to say anything that might sa
vor of injustice to a gentleman who has, during
the last five years, played such an important part
in the Democratic party, Like many of his sin;
care friends, I have merely mlugledziny humble
voles, with theirs, and regretted that one usually
so shrewd and far-sighted should have per
mitted himself to countenance • 'cause Valet
is as hopeless as it is dangerous and bad. Bat I
am glad now to inform you that Governor Wise,
true to himself and his past, has resolved not W
WI a hand, or to take any active part, in the
present campaign for Breokinridge and Lane. Ile
will not, as the Seceders expected, take the dump
In Virginia, but remain quietly on hie farm, near
Norfolk, engaged in agricultural exploits, in the,
enjoyment of a political otsum cum dignitette.
European letters, received here by the repre
sentatives of foreign Governments, give rather
gloomy picture of the present state of political
affairs. The whole horizon is darkened with
stormy clouds, which threaten to flood all En
rope with blood. Garibaldi, who has landed on
the Italian continent, will, in all probability, if
not 'cheered by outside influence, or actual inter
vention by Austria, be in possession of the whole
kingdom, and one more of the God-forsaken family
of Bourbon will have ceased to put his tyrannical
foot upon the neck of poor, and suffering people.
Should, however, Austria, or General Lemorielere,
commander-In-chief of the Papal army, interfere,
England and France,. who are both in favor
of non-intervention, and !lewdly supporting Gari
baldi, will be compelled to take up the sword.
Prussia, in that event, may perhaps join Austria,
as she has no oonildenCe in Louts Napoleon, and
fears that, sooner or later, the latter will pounee
upon her, and take from her the Rhenish provinces.
Revolution in Rome and in Hungary wilt be the
necessary oneequence of a general war. tossnth,
Rlapka, and other Hungarian patriots, aro now
waiting in Bucharest, ready for any emergency
that may turn up in their favor. Russia, which
mires little about the Italian affairs, will per
haps entertain the slok man " with the mug°
of her guns, and drive the children of Mo
hammed, who have been in possession of
European Turkey since 1453, to the other
side of the Hellespont, and instal herself in
the'aeet of the old Greek Emperors. In short, while
we enjoy the blessings of peace and prosperity, un
disturbed by any outside danger, and merely en
gaged in quarrelling a little amongst ourselves, the
people of Europe are now preparing, at the com
mand of their masters, to eat each other's throats.
Row little do many of our people understand what
benefits they derive from free institutions, which
some of them are now assailing so fiercely I Would
to God they would learn from the unfortunate
affairs of Europe a lesson which forever would anni
hilate sectional strife and heart-burning,.

FATAL RAILROAD ACCIDENT—ANOTHER
WARNING TO Bove.—Yosterday afternoon, a fatal
accident (toured on the railroad on Washington
avenue, in Second ward, resulting from the dan

About half past 5 o'clock, a little boy, sir years
old, named Daniel Smith, while riding on the front
platform of ir burden or freight car, which was
Passing along Washington avenue, below Twelfth
street, attempted to get off while the car was in
motion. In doing so, the little follow stumbled
and fell, and the wheel passed lengthwise of
his body, oruebing bie right foot and leg in
a horrible manner, and alined disembowel

death wan instantaneous. ills remains were
were taken to the residence of his father, John
Smith, corner of Twelfth and Federal et roots, and
the, coroner was nodded to bold an inquest last
evening The driver of- the oar stopped it as soon
u he could at the time of the accident, but it was
too late. lie afterwards surrendered himself at
the First-dietriet station-house, to await an inves
tigation of the use. The only blame that can bo
attached to the driver is Ms permitting the boy to
ride on the oar. The drivers of all freight
can running through the city should make it a
point to drive ideal boys attempting to get on the
care for a ride. In order to guard against such
Mseidents, a man is now employed specially along
Willow street, to keep boys off the freight care,
and since his appointment there has not been a
single accident. Parents baring the welfare 'of
their children at heart, will thank the drivers if
they even use fordo in keeping the boys off the cam.

THE PROPOSED VOYAGE TO EUROPE
IN A BALLOON.
The Expedition to Start To-morrow!
Some time ago it was announced that Mr. T. G.
0. Lowe, the balloonist, intended to make an at-
tempt to cross the Atlantio ocean in a balloon.
Mr. Lowe bee been for come time past in our city,
endeavoring tents° mewl to enable him to make
the experiment. The prrject seemed en impracti
cable one, and Mr Lowe has experienced groat
difficulty in raining the funds necessary to bear the
expense. Tho "solid men" of Philadelphia, feel
ing a presentiment that the investment was rather
an uncertain one, have buttoned up their breeches
pockets, and declined to contribute..
The " Professor," however, as he is called, is of
an Indomitable disposition. and in his vocabulary
there is no such word as fell," and he has deter
mined to " go ahead," even if be were compelled
to mortgage his balloon, which we believe be has
done, to enable him to got through with the under
taking. In the event of failure, however, and if the
Professor should happen to he "Bullied out" while
()toeing the " big pond," there is a strong proba
bility that the security would be non rot, and to
cane of the foreclosure of the mortgage, the sheriff
would be required to make a return of "no goods."
Be this no it may, Mr. Lowe, after great exertion.,
has succeeded in completing his arrangements,
and to-morrow he will start on hie perilous voyage,
from the Point Breeze gas works, in the First
ward.
There are no gas works in the United Statee
where a balloon of the size of the " City of New
York " could be inflated, except in Philadelphia.
The balloon is now at the gas works. carefully fold
ed up on the grass, and protected from injury by a
long tent. Within a few day past it has received
coat of varnish to pat it In better condition. The
car and boat attached are also at the works, and
yesterday workmen were burily engaged in pre
paring them for their intended journey. A small
pair of shears has been ereoted, and the oar and
bolt suspended from it, in order to got them in
proper ""trim."
THE VOYAGERS AI TO THEIR ARRAOEMCNTe.
Mr. Lowe will be accompanied by three
pennons. one Mr.. John R. Dickinson, an expe
rienced sailor, who was for several yearn first otli
err of the ship Tuscarora, sailing out of thin port.
Mr. D. is a good navigator, and the nautical part
of the expedition will be under his charge. lie
expresses the fulled confidence of the success of
the enterprise, and explained to one of our repor
ters yesterday, the mode of working the boat in
cane Of the party being compelled to take to it
The other parties who will go will be two men,
to assist in working the machinery.
The officers of the gal works have given every
facility to again in the enterprise, and yesterday
the large gas-holder was filled to its utment capaci
ty, as it was expected that the party would 'tart
some time during the day. Mr. Lo'ats was obliged
to go to New York a day or two ago, on bush:mar,
and did not return till yesterday afternoon, which
postponed the departure till to morrow.
The arrangemente are all completed, and to-snor
ro-e they expect to take their departure. The in
flation of the mammoth balloon will commence
early in the morning, and will probably be corn.
pleted before noon.
Mr. Lowe was present yesterday afternoon eq
porintending the arrangements, and expressed the
ingest confidence in bin ability to 'successfully an
complied' the voyage. Re expressed his regret that
he had not been able to complete Ma arrangements
to start yesterday, as the day was very favorable
for the proper Inflation of the balloon. MO part
of the arrangement requires to be done with a great
deal of care, as the slightest rent in the bsilloon
would put a atop to the trip. Wind and weather
permitting, they will set sail to-morrow, ant bid
adieu to the shoran of America.

ROWING EXTRAORDINARY—A LONG PULL.—
On Tuesday morning last a party of young men,
seven in number, connoted with the Pacific Barge
Club, started from this city in their row boat
"Kernel," and" pulled" up to Trenton. There
they entered the Lehigh canal, and rowed to Beth•
lehem, where they arrived on Thursday evening,
and were received by a deputation of the oltisens

At the Falls, there will be an entertainment given,

the " dangers of the deep "
This feat of rowing fully equals that of the fa
mous vegetarian who "pulled" a week or two
age from Boston and New York. The young men,
however, took matters more comfortably than the
vegetarian, for they were by no means be.
Revers in that doctrine, but took good oars

ed Willinemire ae a alake.holder. Kraft wen the
game. but before the decision WM annotrzwed, Firh
told Williegmire not to pay over the Wane,/; that

Subsequently, Willingmire was again waited open,

asked the court to charge that a stake holder in a
gambling transaction wan not a Who: that the
bailment arises when the transaction is in pun
/Inane° of a lawful transaction.
Judge Ludlow refused so to charge, but held
that the defendant was a belles. If, however,
the Jury believed that Mr. Wllliagmire only re.
fused to deliver the money because the prosecutes
would not consent to take leas than the full amount
.f the stakes, the defendant would not be guilty.
