A Royal "Tale of Two Cities."
From first to last-An the streets, at the
Academy bail, and even in Trinity Church,
(where the sacred ntittui'of thepliteelhould
have suggested the propriety of even assuming
some of the docenciel of isoCletij—the recep
tion and the treatmeritot the Primp of Wales;
at New York, wits memorable and lamentable
fiasco. New York, which was to have done
every thing so handsomely, has utterly failed.
The Prince of Wales mist rememher, for the
lemalnder,ed his' days, thatthii most snobbish
Pkia s In the New`-,World; o far as his expo
-deuce- goes, is New, York, which, forsooth,
gazettes Itself _as a inelropolis 1
The 'contrast Id New York vulgarity and
assumption, supplied by the manner in which'
the Prince was received and treated'in Phila
delphia, is too decided to be shirked. Look
ing back, at the Course_ pursued towards the
Prince in this city, we see only one cause for
regret—namely, that, from an overstrained
delicacy, he was not taken to see Independence
Hall. He' who stood, silent and grave, by the
tomb of the great American sOldier.statesman
at Mount Vernon—with awed reverence such
as his Mother displayed at the tomb of Naro
,tion in the Hotel des Invalides, at Paris—
surely would have been interested in the place
where our Magna Charts, the Declaration of
Independenee, was signed.
In Philadelphia, the Prince was treated
simply as a genUeman, and he was deeply
touched. He, was not intruded upon—not
mobbed—not followed like a showman ; but
mainly, left to himself. At Point Breeze Park,
arid -
,atterwardre at the Academy' 'of Music,
though many assembled to see and greet him,
no ene Intruded - upon him. We gave him
every reason to be Euktiefle,d4jthAkeplace and
the people, and he ' pub li cly ..expressed his
gratitude to, the Mayor, with his parting Words,
for,' the COUsiderate kindness'And . courtesy
shown him.
When 'he arrived at South Amboy, on
Thursday, before twelve o'clock A. M., he was
captured,, taken on bond the Harriet Lane
revenue cutter, where he had a heavy lunch—
the oblef-features of which were statuettes of
his mother and himself in sugar! Instead
of taking him on to New York, ho was con
veyed a circuitous route to show him the bay,
a detour which considerably delayed him, and
helped to make the fiasco of his reception in
New York. - Wholly ignoring his desire to ap
pear simply as a private gentleman, he had
several royal salutes from the Diets in the bay.
He did not enter Castle Garden until a consi
derable time after the hour at which the mul
titude had reason to expect him.
Instead of driving to his hotel at once, heaves
seduced into a room at Castle 'Garden, to change
his civil costume for a military uniform, and
brought out upon the Battery, where Major
General SANDFORD invited him to review
a division of militia, after which, still
causing further delay, he entered a carriage,
which was slowly driven up to the Park,
where he ascended a platform by City Hall,
where. he reviewed the whole of the military
array, which was very splendid; as this In
cluded Lawyer SANDFORD'S Division, the pre
irking review at Castle Garden was quite un
neceesary. The Prince remained until it was
getting dusk, and then bad to leave the re
view unfinished and return to his carriage.
Making slow progress, through a dense crowd
which tilled Broadway, he did not reach his,
quarters at . Fiala Avenue Hotel, until it was
quite dark. Thanks to mismanagement, seven
hours elapsed from the Prince'a leaving,South
Amboy until be reached his hotel. Hundreds
and thousands of persons had paid large sums
for windows on. the line of procession, but ,
from the time the Prince left the Park Milli
be reached his hotel, it was too dark for them .
to see the Prince, or for him to see Broadway
and them. While he was dining, (we 'quote
from the New York Herald,) ct several ladles
who were in the room next to, the dining ball
of the Prince, thought that they would go so
far as to step on tip-toe through the front
balcony, to peep at the heir to the crown of
Great Britain. They were a small company
of beautifial, refined and polished ladies. Their
conduct, during, the whole afternoon, while
they pidlently waited for the approach of the
procession, was such as can Only characterise
Ladles of, thi.softeal natures and the most per
fect accompiiskrisent. But. curiosity is a part
of womanrs, nature as' it is of man's, and be
cause these curfous,maidena ventured to peep
at the Prince the .services, of the police were
called in to ddy° them back. Verbena !tat. a cep.,

upon the Ovate apartment of the young visi
tor, deservedmore than to be driven bath by
a policeman. It would have done them good

verally spanked them.
On Friday, the Prince visited the university,
where Chancellor FERRIS read him an address
of great length; after this, be had to listen to
resolutions passed by the Council; and, alter
that, to a 'speech from-Professor MORSE. The
two sPeethes and the resolutions world ocen„.

tediauetteis as this must have been dreadful.
What a contrast to the brevity and concentra

after visiting some other literary and scholas
tic institutions, and Central Park, be had a
dejeund at Mayor WOOD'S, whO, it seems, must
haye Veen hard up for company, as' the two
BrumErra—Jaxis Gannon and young Plum
gut—were among the ghosts.
But the Ball! Forty thousand dollars were
expended upon it, and it was even worse
than the celebrated Japanese Ball—which
shown a lower depth almost incredible. Over
three thousand guests were invited, and it
would appear, train the crush and the crash,
that some, two. thousand more have got in
without tiCliets. There was not room for any
one to turn round. Tho polite guests thronged
round the Prince as if they would suffocate
him. At last, from the immense weight upon
it and previously inadequate' support, the
floor gave way, leaving a pit of some fifty feet
square, into which it was a mercy the Prince
did not fall. Of course, this gave the finish
ing touch to the fiasco, and the Prince was
taken away, out of the danger, to the supper.
room, where, the Herald says, ei the supper,
though unexceptionable in quality, was not
all that could be desired, because of the mise
rable arrangements untf; .k which it was served.
A few only could be assisted at one time, and
those few by remaining at the tables, rendered
it necessary to pass the food over the heads
or under the elbows of their neighbors.
Wines, creams, and jellies, in this operation,
were consequently liberally sprinkled upon,
ulegint dresses, and damage done by the
quantity." It was a scene of awful and dim
creditable conksion and scrambling.
Nearly three hours after the floor gave way,
its repair was effected, and the Prince tried
to dance; but the mob of cc ladies " and
cc gentlemen" premed so much that move
ment was next to impoksible, until a space
had to be roped round for that purpose. So
wretched were the arrangements that there was
not even a chair for the Prince to sit upon,
and he had to withdraw to his private room
after each dance. He will long recollect the
Academy Ball I
He we. rather let alone on Saturday—when
he visited Basin's Photographic Gallery,
Buxom% and a jeweller'. In Broadway. At
night, he was pottered by a great torch light
parade.
But New York came out, with its full " me
tropolitan " want of manners, on Sunday. We
learn from the New York Herald, which is
fond of reading lessons on Politaise to Phila
delphia, that the Prince attended Djvinp wor
shipat Trinity Church, on Sunday. There were
four , Bishops and thirty-seven other clegry
men in attendance, most of whom, we submit,
would hive been more in their proper place
praying with and preaching to their own flocks.
The anxiety to see the Prince was so great

on their seats, and the Rev. Dr. P. VINTON had

had been gathering there through the service,
to gratify their curiosity." -
The Prince left Now York tor West Point,
yesterday. Thence to Albany, Boston, and
Portland. No whore, we venture to say, can
human ingenuity annoy him more than he was
annoyed at NeW York:
It may be said that we do injustice to New
York. On the contrary, as will be perceived
by the deliberate summing-up of the New
York Timesia : journal of admitted ability and
general impartiality :
"Is it absolutely Impossible for us to do anything
well ? We do not mean passably—but perfectly—
just as it should be done, without any drawbacks
or breakdowns. We pride ourselves greatly. on
our practical qualities—and yet it is precisely there
that our failures occur. Either from some consti
tutional defect„* from habit, we half do a groat
many things—and the Instances of complete sue.
oars are the rare exooptions to the general rule.
The reception of the Prime of Wales affords
.a pertinent and forcible illustration of this general
fact. Here, if ever, a perfect triumph might have
been anticipated. - In the public reception on
Thursday we had the whole executive foros: of the
city onlisted, and for the ball, the volunteer cream
of our best society. Yet both the reception' and
the ball were failures. Neither was complete and
perfect, Both had certain very grand features of
success about them, but both had also very serious
drawbacks. The' procession was a failure, because
we could not march coven dr eight Thousand men
from the Battery to Madison Square between S
o'clock and dark. This was" partly the fault of
General - Sandford, who either did not foresee what
the task'would be and then provide for it, or else
did not know how to perform it; and partly of the
Superintendent of Pollee who did not keep Broad
way clear for the march. The folly of expooting
to force away through the crowd, after the crowd
had ones bean permitted to All the street, was lu
dicrous.
" The ball was a failure from very much the
same cause,;- It 'was intended to be an enjoyable
affair for the Prince and Ms suite, and for as many
of our people as could be provided with the means
of enjoyment within the space assigned. The ma
nagers fined npon three thousand as the proper
number. The result shows that they made a rats.
take. Why could they not have ascertained be
forehand, just as well as when it was too late, that
not more than two thousand could possibly be
made • comfortable under such circumstances?
Dancing was naturally, to be the main feature of a
ball; yet it wits found imprsible to dance, partly
because there was no room,'ltnd partly' because the
floor gave Way. Nothing but stupid blundering
could hare permitted. either of these mishaps.
The Cause of them was shear incompotenoy on
the part of the persons in charge. That why
cannot we learn to select men for a oertain work,
who are competent for that? A man may be re.
speotable,'and rich, and benevolent, and yet know
no more about supervising a public ball than he
does about construing Saneorit. What excuse is
there, then, for trusting the chances of its success
to his ability to 'de what he is utterly unfit for?
Half the men 'charged with very responsible dtt.
ties in the manislesnent of this affair, though very
excellent webs In their business and private re
lations, were utterly ineoropetent for the specific
duties which were all that was on this occasion
required at their hands.
t. We ought at least to learn something fro& ex
potence ha these matters. Oar failures would not
be wholly lost," if they taught us to be more
thorough, and to guard against the same mishaps
in future."
We had nearly forgotten to state that the
Herald's famous programme, dictating where
the Prince should go and whom he should
see, was not attended to. He did not- even
approach Mr. BENNEIv's little ce Willa" and
quarter-acre at Washington Heights.

Letter from " Occasional."
[Corresponctenoe of 'The Frew.]
IVAentsarcat, Oat. 16,1880
I have just read in the Sunday Dispatch, which
a friend was kind enough to forward to me, a re._
port of the proceedings of Saturday last, ventila
ting the alleged fraud, by whioh Hon. Wm. E.
Lehman wasdeprived of his certificate of election
as Representative of your First Congressional die.
triot, by the hoard of return kedges, on the Friday
previous. A more flagrant, and yet more stupid
fraud, was never attempted or exposed. Mr.Leh.
man is as fully entitled to his seat in the new Con.
.grass as Mr. Morris, Judge Kelley, or John Hick
man. His own prompt and determined action befere,
the,return judges cannot be too warmly commend
ed, and the highest credit should also be awarded
to District Attorney Mann, for the searching man
ner in which he probed, and the fearlessness with
which he denounced, the fraud. Mr. Mann is a
Republican, and ices an active participant in the
late streggle, and no doubt will be put forward for
some prominent position by his party. Had he
permitted lite political prejudiced to control him in
this ease, be would have been compelled to forego
all honorable ambition ; but now that he has shown
his courage and his impartiality, he will be ap
plauded by all upright men. .It is not for me,
writing from this point, where the attempt to de
prive Mr. Lehinan of his rights has created intense
excitement, and where I am happy to see it strongly
condemned by the Republican leaders, to suggeet
to Mr. Butler the course he should ,take ; but I pre- ;
diet that the new Congress , will certainly give Mr.
Lehman his seat without a struggle.
I perceive that lin," of the Baltimore Sun,
with his usual geed-hunkered perspicuity and con
sistent ignorance of things, predicts a Demooratid
gain of five members of Congress in the State of
New York at the coming election; and be adds
that the Democratic [Secession] majority in, the
next House will be " ample." My opinion Is di.
rectly the reverse. Unless the Breoldnrldgers
call off their candidates in three of the city die
, biota, the Republicans will elect their candidates.
This Is am notorious here, and the efforts of the Ad
ministration to keep open the feud is ea well known,
that I am astonished even " lon " should have run
the risk of thlspropheoy. Everything tends to the
point that the House of Representatives will be
held by the friends of Judge Douglas alone ; and if
Oregon should elect two anti-Secession Senators, as
in all probability it will, and Knees be admitted
into the Union, as ebe ought to be, at the next ses
sion, and will be unless the South is reselied to
commit another act of wanton folly and madness,
Judge Douglas himself will probably hold the
balance of power in the Senate.
South Carolina, after all the efforts of the Fire
eaters to keep her in the background, will be the
leader' in any Secession movement that may take
blase as a consequence of Lincoln's election. She
is already spurring the Governor of Alabama to
summon a convention of the people of -that State,
in, accordance with the resolves of her Legislature,
" within forty days after it has been ascertained
that a ItepUbliein has been elected President;"
but I do not believe that Alabama will take the
initiative, or will blindly follow the lead of South
Carolina. Mr. Yancey'e speech in New York, a
few days ago, was most significant on this point.
and, in view of the conservative declarations of
Mr. Lincoln and hie friends, and the determina
tion of the Lincoln leaders to commit no overt acts
r upon the rights of South Carolina, and to do all in
their power to consult public sentiment in that
quarter, I am convinced that such statesmen as
George S. Houston, John Forsyth, Governor Win
' ston, and others in Alabama, will not allow the
fanatics to put thorn in the wring.
The names - of Southern men willing to take
place in Mr. Lincoln's Cabinet are freely OATIVBBB
- Among the rest aro these of Edward Stanley,
now of California, but formerly of North Carolina ;
Kenneth Rayner and the veteran John A. Gilmer,
of North 0111:01116 ; T. A. It Nelson and Emerson
Etheridge, of Tennessee ; and Gen. Sam Houston,
of Texas. When the election of Mr. Limb is en
accomplished fact, nothing will prevent the Presi
dent elect from finding an abundanee of material
from which to soloot in the South, but the decla•
ration in' advance, that he intends to make the
territory now, or hereafter to be owned by the
United States, free territory, by prohibiting
Southern men from emigrating to it lota
Moor slaves, The safe and only ground for Mr.
Lincoln, in the event of his election, to take, is
that of non-intervention. This principle was de.
etroyed in the Territories by the intervention of
Mr. Buchanan against the popular will, and by
the Appointment of judicial and other officers
bound to assist the pro-slavery leaders in packing
the ballot-boxes and in cheating public, opinion.
Let Mr. Lincoln forego any formal declaration of
his purpose to prohibit the emigration of Southern
men with their slaves, and then select such agents
as will co-operate in securing a fair vote to the
people of the Territories, and the subject will for.
ever be removed from the public =Mils.

THE PRESS.-PHILA DELPIti A , TUESDAY, OCTOBER 16, 1860.
John B. Gough. at Musical Fund iiall
-
Leis t,EVening. -
After an abeenemia Europe of more than three
years, Mr. Johnß e ttengla appeared before' a Phi
ladelphia Inagienert, among whiab we noticed many
of our most prominent (Athens, at Muskat Fund
Hall, last evening. The house was dandy peeked
to bear the man who has won the reputation' of
being " the prime' Of living 'dramatic orators,"
and whose life, for some years past, has been little
less than one continuous ovation. His appearance
en the platform, in company with a large number
of his friends and admirers, clergymen and others,
was warmly greeted with applause, and every
Countenance beamed with' expectation. -
During his late visit to Great Britain he has de ,
livered aboutelx hundred addreseee to over one
million auditors, having achieved tho unparalleled
feat of speaking nearly one hundred times in sno.
cession to crowded houses, in Exeter Ball, in the
city of London, on the thread-bare topic of Tem.
perfume. The prtratinal resulia of theta protracted
efforts are laid to be on a scale eommensurate
with his oratorical success. Over twelve thousand
persons have been induced to take the pledge;
many waning amoolations have been reviled, and
new societies formed to carry out, the humane ob
teat of his labors.:
Although past three and forty, having been born
in England, August 21,. - iBl7, his appearance,
barring a sprinkling dgray hairs, is still youthful
almost to boyishness. lila manner on the restrain
has not perceptibly awed since last we heard
him, which was at thijkoademy of Music, on the
evening of May 21, 1857 4 on the occasion of his
farewell lecture In this pity prior to his departure
for Liverpool. He appears much improved In
health. In style he can be ranked with no other
living lecturer , that wo have heard. Most
generally, his oratory is more a eucoesslon'of
diaMatie representations in which the author le
the " star" actor of every part, than a eucoinot
discourse. For this reason, he is utterly int
portable. Without apparent 'design, the Mathias
of- hie audience seem to be so perfectly under his
control that he commands their laughter and tears
at intervals, just sufficient to
,prevent a monotony
of either. Without the advantages of an early
education, and Eating , become an orator, as it
may
,be. said,, by an analdeitt,', With which our
readers are supposed to be familiar, he Is a copy
ist of nothing but his own impulses and ham.
gination, and in these be revels ad libitum. In
the words of President Nott, he' is " an orator of
the Almighty's own educating." Doubtless, one
great secret of his emeurss and universal popular
ity is found in his refraining- to abuse endive
duals. While he attacks with irresistible power
the aoknOwledged evil of intemperance, his lan
guage is alwayi in pity rather than denunciation
of Its victims. It is this that hue enabled Gough
to introduce his reterni where lecturers of less din
motion have been exoluded. During his lecture
last evening we endeavored to detect the meet of
his rhetoric, art, but were more persuaded than
ever of his utter artlessness, and that his powers
of oratory, though cultivated by use, aro as natu
ral as it is for Holmes to be poetio or Saxe to be
"funny." If, at least, Mr. Gough evinces any art
at all, it is in his somewhat loose and awkward
way of commencing, in order to cheek tho expeo
tation ef his auditors, and for this, considering
that his own fame is his greeted rival, be is tier
telinly excusable.
The leotnie was delivered under the auepiaes,and
for the benefit of, the Young Men's Christian As.
isolation of this city. At a few minutes after If
o'clock, George 11, Stuart, Esq., rose and stated
to the audience that the honor of extending an in
troductory welcome to Mr. John B. Gough had
been awarded to the Rev. Wm. J. R. Taylor. of
this oily, who then came forward and in substance
said :
Surely 'no formal introduction of their friend
could be necessary to an audience like this; be
would Introduce Elwell. Referring to the bril
liant " farewell" already spoken of, he doubted
if ever any operatic performance had left a more
enduring impression than that interesting mane ;
and, after a happy allusion to the lecturer's late
labors abroad, turning to Mr. (laugh, he extended
to him, in behalf of the Young Mon's Christian
Aasooiatlon, the Christian ministry, and all the
representatives of warm-hearted Philadelphia
there present, a cordial, full, hearty welcome,
which was received with loud and protracted
applause.
Mr, Gough, In opening his performanoo—tor
such it was, rather than, 'consecutive discourse—
said he was very much obliged to be thus wel
comed back to the scene of his early labors. He
had been requested to give lectures on some other
subject than that of Temperance, and, in oomph[-
anon with this, had occupied hie leisure toortruts,
while abroad. in preparing twoleetures on England
and her People. But on returning to this country
he found, our people so hungry for talk an the Old
topic, that he iced oonoluded to bold forth "le his
old way on his old theme.
There"wera some people, he said, in every onm
romiley, who came to hear him and went away dis
appointed, alleging that thelecturer 'gave' them
no arguments. • Now," said he, what ergo
manta do they want? I nay intemperance Is
an evil. 1)0 you require any argument to prove
this? • And I say that it is the duty ot' every man
to do what he can to get rid of an evil. Do you
require any argument to prove that? Having
laid down this proposition, he proceeded to Dins.
trate his subject in his own inimitable way, holding
the audience spell-bound, and moving them alter
nately to eastitio laughter and tears of sympathy.
He disclaimed that it was any part of, the temper.
snob movement to usurp the plane of the grace of
God, or that temperance lectures ought in any
sense to be made a substitute for the Gospel. He
believed, however, that the temperance reform
had, like Jesus at the tomb of Ls.earas, raised
many a putrid wretch from a moral grave to stand
erect in the Image of God, anti thus been the in
strument of bringing him to hear the Word of GO
preached that he might believe.
Among other things related by him was an In
terview which he had had with a learned minister
in England, who undertook to confute his temper
ance doctrine by the wines of the Bible. This, said
the speaker, was at first 'a difficulty whittle' ho
should have been glad to evade, but finding- the
matter pressed, he ventured to assert to his learned
opponent that he believed there were two hinds
of wine spoken of in the Bible. This he was;6lall
- to prove; which he was not lingulstlemugh
to do fiom the eriginal text, but he knew that the
wine made from water by the was not the
seme article which was elsewhere called "a
meeker," and he could hardly think that the wine
to be drank "new in the Father's kingdoM;" was
the same as that which wee elsewhere denomi
nated " the wrath of God.''
One of the secrete of Gough's popularity is his
democratic way of dealing with the vanities of 'eo.
°tufty. His Recount of the mode in whioh he met
the sticklers for a fictitious " respectability" In
Engitmd, was no less a philosophical ooMmentary
upon the subject of " codfish aristocracy," than ft
was a consummate picot, of dramatic acting. His
allusion to his father and mother, and his own
early life, was at once noble, manly, and pathetic.
When he came to desoribe the privation", and
sorrows, and finally the death and lowly burial of
that faithful mother, while his father leas absent,
as a soldier, there were few tearless eyes, and somo
audible tabs, among the audience, The love of a
mother, which poets had sung, which th e Scrip
tures used in illustrations, and of which novelists
had written, was the keynote of one of the most
powerful and eireetive passage's of the evenipg's
lecture.
lie deprecated the too common predict, of Wi
ng men or women "brutes bectuse they hap
pened to be victims of intemperance. They Were
not brutes, which he proceeded to demonstrate by
narrating a number of hutances in which ho had
been instrumental of reclaiming 'smolt from the
vilest bogs of inebriety to respectability and hap.
pinup. Ah, no there was a better way to treat
the unfortunate than passing tbera by as brutes,
and that was patiently to persevere in knocking at
the door of theirhearts until admienion was gained
and reason was again left to have Its sway over en
accursed appetite for drink. Bright, beautiful
diamonds by millloas had been Washed down by
the foul tide of drunkanneee, under the black rock
of oblivion, and what the tempqauee movement
aimed at was to rescue them from the mire, and
present them, washed and reclaimed, to their homes
and eooiety.
There were many who aoknoWledged the doc
trine of the universal brotherhoOd of the race as
"a very beautiful idea," but With a "what can
we do?" it rested. Peep% had no influence, be
cause they did not choose to exert it. The influ
ence of a good, pure-minded woman was inestima.
Cie. He never shook hands with ono such without
feeling a better being for it but, on the other
hand, nothing more belittled a man than assoola
tion with those whose womanhood was made up of
paint and paste, and orinoline,!and whose ideas of
rank and respectability wete confined to the
frivolities of dress. Ho annonnoed, in conclusion,
that the theme of his next diMourso would be, the
worth of a man, as an incentive to save him from
ruin.
The second lecture of th course will be de
livered at the same hall, t la evening, and the
third and last, on next Mirada, evening.' The
wisdom of securing tickets in advance was demon.
etrated last evening, se, for Some moments before
the hour of commencing, the sale of tickets to ap

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE—A Max BADLY BURNT.
—Last evening; ,about 7 o'clock, a flre took place
at the extensive coal-oil works of lielmo & Os., al-,
taste on the east hills of Bridgewater street, in the
Twenty-fourth ward, between the Market-street
and the wire bridges, which, besides destroying a
large amount of property, came near resulting fa
tally. The work a in question comprise a large
building, situate directly opposite the rowelton
Fair Ground. Before the floe commenced, three
men,
Jam lielme, (brother of the proprietor,)
niel Brown, and William Smith, were at work in
the second story of the factory, pumping petroleum
oil from one large tank to another. In the course
of their labor,
one of them held an uncovered lamp
over the tank, when instantly the ,whole mass of
ell ignited almost with the rapidity of gunpowder,
enveloping the whole building in flames. Helms
sprang to the window, and escaped by seizing a rope
and lowering himself to the ground. He WBB 80.
vorey burned about the bands and face. Ile went
to the dwelling of Mr. Thomas P. Wilson, (which
stands off the road a short dlatance, between
Bridgewater street and the river,) where hie
wounds were dressed by Mrs. Wilson, and every
attention shown him. Ile was afterwards taken
to his residence, No. 1512 Frankford road, above
Jefferson street; and at a late hour was as com
fortable as could be expected. Daniel Brown, one
of the other men, quickly got out of the room, and
was only slightly injured. He resides in Seven
teenth street, below Walnut. William Smith es
oaped with little or no Injury, and was active in
endeavoring to put out the fire. . •
The Whole building was completely destroyed;
together with the machinery and. apparatus, tanks,
stills, do., and about 2,500 gallons of oil. The loss
will amount to between $30,000 and $lO,OOO, upon
which there le not a dollar of insurance. The
spread of the fire wan so rapid that it was impossi
ble to save anything, and the men in the building
had barely time to escape with their lives. In this
neighborhood water is scarce, and, although the
firemen were early on the ground in large num
bers, little could be done towards saving the build
ing or its contents. Nothing was saved tint a email
office, which stands detached from the main build
.
lag.
During the time the fire lasted laugh obstruction
was occasioned to the oars of the West Philadelphia
Passenger Hallway Company by the lines of hose
laid along Bridgewater street, and at one time
there were long lints of oars and other 'vehicles,
reaching nearly across to the eastern side of Mar
ket. street bridge.
DOUGLAS MEETING IN TEM NINTH WARD.
Last evening, the Douglas Democrats of Ninth word
assembled at the rooms of the club, at fifteenth
and Market streets. A very handsome banner,
containing well•extontell likenesses of Stephen A.
Douglas and Herschel V. Johnson, was Hang to the
breeze in the afternoon.
Mr. Frederick A. Van Clove called the meeting
to order at 8 o'clock, and, after some preliminary
business bad been disposed ef, John O'Byrne was
Introduced, and, on behalf of tha donor, presented
the banner. He said there was more in the pre
sentation of the banner than would be at first sup
posed. It was an evidence that there were enough
Democrats left in that ward who had faith in the
party, and the final triumph of the glorious princi
ples for which they wore fighting. The banner is
a labor of love and devotion, made by Mr. Daniel
O'Bryan, a self-taught man. It symbolized his
great faith in the glorious principles which their
gallant standard-bearer advocated, and he trusted
that his audience would ever remain tine to those
principles.
Mr. Van Clove received the gift on behalf of the
club. lie paid a tribute to the talent displayed
by Mr. te'Bryan in painting the likenesses of Don
glee and Johnson, and thin proceeded to eulogise the
characters of the two latter, as being the expositors
of the glorious prlneiple of non-intervention. They
were the representatives of the only national party
now in existence, and he urged upon his hearers
to do all iii their newer to promote' theireleotion,
and thus uphold the reputation they had gained of
being the banner ward of the city. The meeting
reeelved a large accession to its numbers bythe
entrance of several ward associations.
A mass meeting was then formed and Mr.
O'Byrne was again introduced. He ac id the most
dbmiriting thing a person could do was to speak
immediately after.-a defeat. Ho, however, did
hot consider that the meant election could, be con-
sidered as a true criterion of the sentiment of the,
people, and he urged upon his hearers renewed'
exertion for the great battle to be fought on the
firat Tuesdey of November. Defeats are commonlyi
the preourserti of the greatest and most glorious,
victories, and the reoont defeat has only purgiot
our party of such as were not worthy to be mem.:
born of it. We fight for sacred prinaiples—prinot
pies which we labor to preserve as pure and maid %
lied 8.9 we received them from our fathers. We be
lieve that which is right Will, in the end, triumph
by the very fitness of the thing itself, and we do.
not believe that any party made up of all sorts of
faotions can endure for any considerable length of
time. Jackson's triads rallied around him after
his defeat, and after four years he was eleoted to
the highest office in the gift of the people, and I
firmly believe that Douglas will be viotoriona
1864. [Applause) The people hale • registered a
vow that Stephen A. Douglas—the vary type
of the people themselves—shall eventually tri
umph. Oar party will be the nucleoli around
which all conservative men can rally, and in 1884
we cannot fail to be successful. The principle of
popular sovereignty was at one time accepted etr
the universal platform of the Democratic) party
from Maine to California, and would be to-day,
but for a few Southern,. thmemionists. It had al
ways boon the faith of the- Dementia party, and
was recognized as such before Stephen A. Douglas
was born. Upon thin very inns the Revolution
was fought and our liberty aohieved. By trickery
there is danger of having it stricken down, but it
will surely rise up again. It is the Indestructible
faith of the Domooratie party, The pioneers of
the West, who go there- and cultivate Mb bound.
less prairies, are the proper persons to determine
whether slavery stall or shall not exist within
their borders.
The speaker then reviewed the platform of the
Republican party, denouncing it as a sectional
party, and one that Meet, in the nature of things,
have but an ephemeral existence. He concluded
amid great applause, and the meeting adjourned.
REPUBLICAN MEATING AND PARADE IN
CAMDF.N.—Last night the Republicans of Camden
devised a mammoth torchlight parade, in honor of
the recent victories of their brethren in Pennsyl
vania and the West, to which the Wide• Awake
clubs of this oily were invited. A number of the
latter took advantage of the affair to rid them
selves of an unoomfortable pressure of enthusiasm,
consequent upon the rise of Lincoln stook.
The parade was very creditable, beautiful and
orderly, not widely different from a hundred that
we have already ehrottioled and to enter into a
detailed account of the various clubs, etc., atten
dant from this pity, and from How Jersey, would
unnecessarily burden our columns and bore our
readers. There was one club from Haddonfield,
seven from Philadelphia, four from Camden, and
three from adjoining towns, making probably
twenty-five hundred men in line.
The Philadelphia clubs were received at the
various ferries and escorted to headquarters, where
lunch was dispensed. Happily, the speeches had
enaossed the afternoon, and the Pennsylvania
Wide-Awakes were. not trottbled with-windy and
verbose rhetoric. 'Ale line -formed at Front and
Market streets, and fin route lay in countermarch
log up !Market to Federal, then prooeeding down
Federal to Second, up Second to Cooper, down
Cooper to Front. up Front to htate, up State to Se

grand review was announced, although the line
was considerably thinned when the head rank made
its appearance.
Mush of the route lay across vacant lots, where
the Wido Awakes were subjected to raking winds,
and many torches were extinguished. The indivi
duals who carried 4he broad banner t

bers and in some quarters the Linoolnites remind
ed us of the children of Israel tramping through
the lied Sea. dome banners in line were excel
lenity devised. Pennsylvania was said to be "0.
K ", and both Ohio and Indiana were denomina
ted " Big Guns." The candidates for Row offices
were celebrated pictorially, as "Moore, IlrAtte,
Freeman," whom Liberty did not detest as they
did not " Harneer." Abe Lincoln, with the mole
on his cheek, and cadaverous jaws, indicative of a
" Roundhead," not literally but technically, look
ed down from bias and yellow badges, and banners
and transparencies ; Hannibal Hamlin simulta
neously appeared ; the Republican candidate for
Governor of New Jersey was likewise depicted in
flaming pictures. The procession was most beau
tiful. The Philadelphia clubs never made better
appearance. Their lines of fire could be seen for
long distances flashing up, making night luminous,
and the frequent shouts came over the thinly-set
tied districts with the waving of lights and the
surging of dames. It was eleven o'clock when the
line dismissed.
A CHILD EATEN WV RATS.—Art Sunday

Davie looked the child up in the room occupied by
its mother. Some time afterwards, hearing the,
baby crying piteously, the woman repaired to the
room and found that the child had beet) attacked

poor infant proented a Shocking appearance. The

this, Cept. Lyle concluded to march up to the city,
rather than anoonnter the trouble of embarking
on board the steamboat ,again. A I portion of. the
friends of the corps returned by way of the boat,
while the largest number marched up on foot. On
