THE WAR.
The innumerable, and, as many +believe, unne
cessary peketponements of the draft in many of the
loyal States, has created in the public mind an ins
premien that the Governors are averse to conscrip
tion, and that it will only be resorted to in case of
a more decided necessity than is now supposed to
exist—as, for instance, in the event of a serious
disaster to the Union army. The tide of war's
fortune having changed . in the West as in the
:East, and there being no reason to look for
anything - but a continuation of the recent
successes, the impression has gained ground
that in Pennsylvania, at least, there will be
110 draft. And this idea, in the minds of
many, is strengthened almost to a conviction from
the fact that it should have occurred during the
present week, but has again (for the fourth time)
been postponed, without any definite time in the
future being decided on. We regard a draft in
this State inevitable. It has taken place in p.eve-'
ral of the States already, and has not proved such
a terrible • affair. It should, and doubtless did,
comp of in Massachusetts yesterday. In
Connecticut, a second conscription, to be
taken on the 27th instant, is necessary to
snake up the defficiencies caused by the exemp
.,
lions under the first. In
.New York the tenth of.
November has been decided on—almost a mon h
hence. In the latter case the troops certainly can
be not a particle of service to she. Government
until next spring, and will simply be drawing
pay for hibernating in barraoks somewhere along
the Potomac. The' ame remark will apply to the
force now beieg raised in Maryland, and doubtless
to whatever troops may be drafted in our own.
State. If there be a ground at all for the supposition
that the army now on the Potomac may be
compelled to take up winter quarters without
a forward movement-and such a supposition is
confirmed by the statement that the Virginia roads
are in a shocking condition—how can anything else
but aTall campaign of snug inactivity be-expected
from the army now being organized in - the "North ?-
Let the draft come ; it cannot come too soon, and
onezy come too late. Delay does not weaken our
enemy more than ourselves. The people who

THE -NEWS. •
TILE town of .11ewland Flat, Sierra county, Cal
fornia, bat been almost totally destroyed by fire.
:Li ES estimated at $lOO,OOO.
Gun correspondent with General Grant's army
gives us a complete, connected, and intelligible
amount of .the late battle at Corinth, why it was
fought, how it was fought, and what are the re_
suits of its success. Included in his letter are
several official despatches, now . first made public.
One of these is President Lincoln's congratulation
to General Grant, which is brief, but sufficiently
expressive. We have also from our oorrespordent,
an account of General Rosecrans' return from the
pursuit of the dispersed rebel armies, after follow
ing them 30 Miles.
As wthr, BB SEEN by the statement of a corre•
spondent, the amount of property destroyed or taken
. by the rebels, in finer late raid upon Chambersburg,
has been greatly over-estimated. •

Amend the victims of the draft- in Baltimore
yesterday 'we observe the name of Mr. John E.
Owens, an actor of considerable reputation and un
doubted comic talent. Mr. Owens is go accus
tomed to tcdrawing;" others, that he cannot con
sistently complain, now that he has been drawn
himself. It is almost unnecessary to observe
that Ms, is a joke. Another of the vichirns, al
though not a cousedian, is at least a mirty-ma,n.
THE lastrr of the election is the interior of
the State, and psrtieularly in the West, as
exhibited in the returns from Indiana, Ohio,
and lowa, are not as gratifying as we could
have e - xpectc d. The impression.this will pro
duce is that the Administration hits been re
buked hy the popular voice of the West, and
in many places which have hitherto been
strongly attached to tiro Republican party. A
moment's reflection and observation, however,
will furnish for this many natural and reason
able causes We took occasion to • print
in the leaf few weeks, a number of statistics
on the character and composition of our vari
ens armies. We showed that wherever a large
Douglas vote bad been cast, or nvote,, corres
pondingly large for the Republican party, the
enlistments had been larger than in other parts
of the country, where the Democracy were in
power. In the noithern Counties of Pennsyl
vania, and more, particularly in the district
represented by Mr. Gnow, bath of the quotas
have been filled, and it is hardlY possible
that a draft will be necessary, ithile hi,Yorlr,
Berks., and other Democratic counties :a draft
be absolutely necessary. This is alio the
case in many parts of Ohio, Indiana, and
lowa., 4 In• Philadelphia, the wards which
gave the largest majorities for Mr.
HENRY have given the largest number of sol
diers to the war ; and it is worthy of observa
tion that the wards which are exempt from the
draft are therm which gave him the largest
vote. The necessary inference from this IS
that the armies of this Republic are, as a
general thing, composed of men who have
been friends to the Union; and that a majority
of those remaining at home are opposed to the
Yar, either because it is`condueted by a Res
publie,anAdmiaistration, or because the ene
my assailed representkrtbe rebellious States el
the Democratic South.
(fur intelligence is so 'meagre from the
different counties of this State, that we find
it impossible to come to any degßite coneltt
sion as to the general result. Reasoning from
the figures before xis, there is / itio doubt that
we have carried the State -by a large ma
jority, and we may asanme that the next
Legislature will be so composed as to
elect a Union Senator. The legislatlie de
department of our city Government is again
in the bands of the friends of the Adminis
tration, unless the audacious fraud perpetra
ted in ~the Twenty-fourth ward will be per
mitted to neutralize and embarass the popular.
will. Where we have been defeated we can
find reasons for that defeat in the absence not_
only of citizens at the war,-but in local feuds,
in, compromises with the enemy . to secure per
sonal advantages, in the apathy of the party
leaders, and the false feeling of confi
dence in the success of our glorious cause.
As we told. the people before, this
cause could only be triumphant by their
persistent and unremitting energy. We are
very much afraid, looking over the figures now
before us, that that energy was either wanting
or neutralized upon minor issues. The Demo
cratic organization was fighting for existence.
The leaders knew that unless they obtained
il
power, or what seemed to them a reversion of
power by the eleetion•on Tuesday, their party
was demoralized and their influence was at an
end. We think we have accomplished thatre
suit. The Democratic party has polled its full
disloyal vote. There. was every inducement
held out that could mislead the people. Cal
umnies, misrepresentations, falsehoods, and
frauds were abundant and uurebuked. The
prestige of military success was invoked for
their assistance. Every one who had a griev
ance to relate or a wrong to revenge—cashiered
officers of the army, unconfirmed qnarterm is
ters, incompetent soldiers, disappointed office
seekers, Southerners, and sympathizers with
the South, all combined to - swell the column
against us.
We have conquered this, and in doing,'so
have conquered everything. This battle of
OM's has been fought upon high ground. No
issue was shirked, nnattempt-was made to pre
varicate or conceal. The Administration and
its measures, the war and its policy, were be
fore the people, and they have sustained
them. We cannot only fight our battle
in the field, can fight thernr at the
ballot-box. The masses of this country have
assured the President that Ids course has
been proper and wise, and that after pre
siding over the country through its darkest
And bitterest days, he has acted with so much
patriotism and discretion, so nauchjustice and
good faith, that he still possesses their con
tinucd confidence and esteem.
Some • Foreign Matters,
The intelligence just received from Europe
is of unusual interest. Even the Times is
compelled to acknowledge the ill success of
the rebel invaders of Maryland, and the tri
umph of the Union army under General Mc-
CLELLAN. That irrepressible person, Mr.
JAMES SPENCE, of Liverpool, while compli
menting the North on its successes in Mary
land, adroitly suggests that the victors ought
to forthwith offer terms of peace to the con
quered. We are unable to understand the
logic of such a proposition. No doubt, Mr.
SPENCE, who is a hireling of the South, wrote
according to instractions from his owners.
The Social Science confederation, at Brussels,
closed their labors by signing an address to
Mr. lascome, praying him to close the war by
accepting-terms from the rebels. The cc so
cial" philosophers may have vast and varied
acquaintance with science and art, law and
letters, commerce: and polemics, but are evi
dently ignorant_of the golden rule—Mind your
own business, and leave others to mind theirs.
The piratical successes of “No. 290," al
ready reported, appear to rival those of the
Sumpter and, the Nashville, and make us
regret that our Government did not issue let
ters of marque, months ago. It is evident
that reprisals must be made, so that Southern
pirdles or privateers shall riot he permitted, to
continue their robbery and destruction of
Union property at sea. Equally patent is the
fact that England has not acted fairly, that she
has broken faith with us, in proclaiming a pre
tended neutrality. 'Were England really neu
tral, her Government would not have permit
ted ‘4' No. 290" and othecvessels of war to be
built, for the rebel South, at Birkenhead, which
is as close to Liverpool, across the Mersey,
as Camden is to Philadelphia across the Dela
ware. For months pest, nearly all the work
done in Mr. Laran's ship building yard at
l3irkenhead, has been done for the South. At
this moment, as English journals announce,
quite a fleet of war-steamers is being, e'en
structed for the South by •Mr. LAIRD, and as
fast ;v.; each is completed, it is provisioned and
armed at Liverpool, without the slightest at
tempt at the hypoericy of concealment. Mr.
LAIRD, who thus openly violates Queen Vie-
TORIA'
S proclaimed neutrality, is, a member of
the British House of Commons, and ought to
be within some Governmental notice. The
Liverpool Custom-House officials could readily
correct his - intended mischief by: refusing
clearance papers to any of the new war-craft
which he produces and . equips. On the con
trary, it asks no questions, but lets each vessel
depart unchallenged, just as if it were bound
on a commercial instead of, a piratical cruise.
Mr. LAIRD is increasing his great wealth by
working day and night ter his Southern em
ployers. Other% have been less fortunate.
For example, Mr. Z. E. PeAnsox, Mayor of
Hull, who had speculated largely in what is
called cc running the blockade," has wound
up by merely out-running the constable, and
landing himself in the Court of Bankruptcy,
with a loss of capital to the tune of between
two and three million dollars. His chief oc
cupation for the last ten months has been, the
supplying the South with ship loads of every
thing, from a paper of pins to an. Armstrong
or Whitworth cannon. He.calculated that if
two out of every three cargoes,which he sent
out succeeded in reaching a Southern port,
his profit still would he immense. Mr. Pearl
sox—who, by the way, consistently is Presi
dent of the Hull Anti-Slavery Society—cer
tainly did drive a large trade in this smug
gling line, but finally came to grief. It is
understood that he had to give long credit to
his Southern customers, and their non-pay
xnent has ruined him.
The value of arms and ammunition shipped
from England to this country during the past
eight months of 1862 is $61)40,000, of which
amount more than five-sixths was for the
South. Whenever our settling-day with Eng
land, stall arrive—and come it Surely will
--PALMERSTON'S mockery of - neutrality will
be remembered and punished.< Of all com
mercial nations, England has the strictest
customs' laws, regulations, and practice. If
Vrorcutra's ' neutrality, proclamations were
meant to be operative, not a musket or bay°.
net, cannon or cartridge, could pass out of
any British port upon any false pretext what
ever. The proclamation prohibits the ex
pottation of alTab or ammunition, and VICTO
RIA'S custom-house officers wink at it—when
the destination is really ibr the South, though
nominally for that groat place of call, the Ba
hamas.
It, would appear that;at the, farewell reques
of the Princess PIA, youngest daughter o
Vicron E3I3IANtEL, made before quitting
Italy to become Queen. of Portugal,
neety was to be proclaimed, on the 4th
instant, to' o:mtia.A.lni and all his followers,
except deserters from the royal army. This
is a, wise as well as a generous policy---pro 7
bably recommended by PALMERSTON, WllO is
said to be pressing NAPOLEON to withdraw the
Trench army . from Rome, leaving Italy to
settle the question of her unity, without any
foreign interference. The Times, which ne
glects no opportunity of insulting this
country, bitterly abuses Ginninnt, for that
be, lying " wounded at Varignano, the object
of solicitude of the whole world, and still the
idol of all Italians," should' have eminpro
miscd him Set - by " writing , a letter to a
Yankee consul at Vienna, promising his
sword in a foreign quarrel, and his
name :to the cause of . subjugating a now
emancipated people"—to wit, the rebel
South. Granting the chance of a general
amnesty, it adds, "It is not impossible that
we may yet see GARIBALDI crossing the Atlan
tic in the assumed character of an American "ci
tizen, and fighting for the subjugation Of a nation
struggling to be free." In one sentence, the
South is cc a now emancipated people," in an
other it is only " a nation struggling to be free."
The state of GAnanALnes health, from his
severe wounds, will probably doom him 'to
months of inaction. We notice the sitbjeCt
•
only;to show how persistently The. i mes, to a
certain extent mouth piece,
seizes opportunities of insulting the United
States. We shall not forget it.

THE HIBERNIA'S. MAILS.
Tho , London Times on ITLiC'Ohm's Victories.
[From the London Times, October 2 )
Übe victory, such as it wae, or MotWhin and his col
leagues, is exceedingly remarkanle. An army deatora- •
hied by a aneceeeion of failures and a long retreat has
suddenly proved at least equal, and, we may say, supe- '
rior to an army elated with triumph and bent upon a
coniinnation of its conquests. ./ be foreseer the Confide
rates have euffeied their first important check exactly at
the period whbn they might have been tbought most se
amed of victory. It was generally expected that the
grand army of the Federate. when itdid advance into Vir
ginia, would acquire an ascendancy in the field, if only by .
Mice of Lund/era and superiority of equipment. Nott.dy
womb have been burr feed to hear acme months ago that
bet deehad been won in Virginia, and that Richmond had
bean taken. t annul It we imagined, atter the capture of
Fort bunelson,•that Gen lialleck, with his powerful and
well-eupp led force, would beat the Confederates on the
Miesleeippl; and, though nobody believed in the con
quest of the South, everybody was prepared for the mill
tary_tucceas of tte.Nntri,however,
were not verifted by events. Up to the beginning of
last month every pitched battle had been more or leas la
favor of the Confederate q and their final advance from
Richmond to . the Potomac represented one continuous
victory. They then cross the Potomac, and carry the
war into the enemy's country ; but here fortune turns
against them, and they retrace their steps, after no inglo
rious fighting, Wilh heavy Meson both sides. Lis not that
they fontd the country hattle,.or thatthey movedtoo far' -
horn flair supplies', for they penetrated but a short die-
fence Into the Maryland territory, they were not un
favorably received, and their retreat, as the event shows,
woe tenured. Neither was it that'they caught their cae
my at bay. and so found themselvesponfronted with the
strength of despair, for McClellan was the pursuer, and
it was he who of his own choice brought on the first en;
gageineni. We cannordeecribe the actions reported as
anything butfeir lighting onta fair field, and yet thii vic
tory, or such semblance of it as was achieved at aft, re
mained with the troops who had been represented, and,
we doubt not, with perfect truth, as exhausted, dispirit
ed. and alts gather inferior to their opponents.
It is worth while, therefore to inquire in what circum
stances this sudden turn of forlttise could have originated,
and we me much inclinedto believe that it is traceable to
the liberation of McClellan from Name professional re
bti ictioua awl disabilities Whicn official or personal jealou
sies had previously imposes upon hi a. 'At no other
point can we discover anything to account for the torn
of the tide, but here there was something notable even
Defer° the fighting began. Met/Milan ha, the first time,
perhaps, in the whole war , received fail , powers from the
President to act es .
-he thought proper in the chief
command. No sooner was he invested with this
authority than . he did exactly the opposite of what
his previous, tactica had led us to expect. Instead
of sheltering and reforming his broken battalions behind
the defaces of Washington, he instantly, and without an
honk's delay, marched'in pursuit of the very army which
bad just driven the Federal forces headlong across the'
Potomac. As coon as he finds hie enemy he fights, and
le not beaten. Re renews the fight day after day, and
presently be sustains an attack himself with a continua
tion of this unusual fortune. Inumately, if be days not
actually drive the' Oonfederatos'ecioai the river in their
turn, he sees them deliberately retire after the handling
he has given them, and thus gains in a .week's campaign
over a strong and triumphant army an advantage which
he , failed to achieve under far more favorable ea:With:lns
in the course of a whole year. ,
It le a mystery where ho got the troops for drat a
Work. The description given of the Federal tinny as it
fled from the as miss of Lee and Jackson was too natural
to be doubted, and though McCiellan'a own corps had
not been engaged, yet that very force bad @afferent still
woree treatment on the banks of the James river. It
was surely not in the despairing and fever. stricken
army which stole away irom Magruder that the mate
rials for a new campaign could be so .promptly route.
Washington was full of troops, no doubt, but they
must have been either raw -levies or veterans who
were none the better Air their service, whereas oar
own correspondent reported;the condition of the Southern
. .szmy; before the fighting commenced, as efficient in the
extreme. All the beet Sonthera generals were on the
. Sinund, too, and we *can trace. indeed, in their move
. meats, the military genius which has aiwas
- 4018110 the South. Probably the best army, in the beet •
condition, which the Confederates have ever arrayed on
a field of battle, stood last month cn the soli of Mary
land, Mid yet it was wotsted by an army of whieh we
can give no account, commanded by a general who had
never won' a victory infers,.
We assume without hesitation that the invasion of
Maryland has been a failure. Whether it was a laid for
the sake of stores and provisions,or an attempt to raise
the State against the Union. or linply a strategic move
ment against the army of Washington, the conclusion
most be the same. Whatever the Confederates desired
to do they must have left =Gone, because the !federal
' fumy forced them to retire. They , met, If not with 'a
superior force, at any rate with a force which they could
-not conquer, and CO they.retreated. We do not place the
.least faith in the stories of their demoralization , ' or rout.
It appears plain that they withdrew from Maryland in ax
celluit order,' and with all their material—perhapi with
more than thee lock in. We have no doubt they will
soon he beard of again,nor do we consider that the
cause of the North has ten advanced a single step by
these unexpected victories. But, for all this,,it is per
fectly clear that the Confederates, who bad marched tri
umibautly up to the very waters of the: Potomac, then
Buffered a reverse, shd that their plans or strategy, Ipso
far oaths invasion of Maryland 'l4BB 'concerned, can
, y tetely failed. At that point, some cause or other,
and, as wo suspect. the definite ascendancy of
McClellan, gave the Northernefi-an advantage. They
paid dearly for it, - but • still they. got it, and , it ,will
be interesting in .the extreme to see whether they
can retain it, or whether it will pass away from

OUR NEXT CITY COUNCILS.
Later returns of the City election give a majority of
one member, on joint ballot, in City Councils. Select
Council will stand : 1:2 Brecttioridgers, and 13 Union
members; and Common Connell it a tie. This bare ma.
jority of one is sufficient to Insure the return of a good
and tfliCient administration' of the municipal depart.
ment. Our city has, in its financial and governmental
policy, been ruled during the past year by the politicians
of the Brechinridge schooL There is now a prospect,
that in any future efforts of the Mayor to place this city
in a Mato of defence, he will not be thwarted or ()Mbar
reseed by men wbo apparently aro anxious that their-de
luded brethen" of the rebel atm should feast in the
City of Independence on the hospitality of traitor and
sympatbizeri. Our Citizens may *feel hopeful that' the
administration of the City Govern= ut will be character
ized by honesty, and . an unselfishidevotionlto the interests
of-the whole commuity.

THE BEECRINRIDGEUS AT THEIR OLD
TRICKS—FROM IN THE TWENTY-FOURTH
WARD.—The return judges et the Twenty-fourth
ward met yesterday for the Drumm of awarding certifi
cates to the snocessfol candidates on the ward ticket.
The Breckiiiridgers are in the majority by one vote over
four Unionists. With a Biackinrielge president, they
commenced business with sour, looks, and an evident de.
ten:abattoir to defraud the loyal people Of West Phila
delphia out of their verdict of condemnatiiiii against the
sympathizers with treason in their midst. City Councils
had been reported in' the morning ieeers as having left
the tender mercies of the friends of 'Secession, and
these politicians determined that no effort of theirs
ebould be wanting 'to prevent "so dire a calamity. Tho
result of the election in the ward showed a majority of
four votes for E. Spencer Miller, the Union candidate for
Select Council, and ttwenty.two votes majority for J. B
McCurdy, the Union candidate for Common Council.
The clerk was ordered 'to dieregard tliii'vote,.and to
make out certificates of election or their opponents,
Dowry, Brecklnridge candidate for Select
- .991.111.9111.. allid-illeac Leech, BrockimMge, candidate for
Common Council. The clerk, who it:appears Is a con.
ectentious Democrat, decliniid to act In such en info.
mons capacity. The minority of the judges:protested
against the flagrant outrage, but in vain. Tile cerNa
cateo for Lowry and Leech were made gill aid etgnntt 6y
the five judges. During their session, Mr. Lowry entered
the room, and publicly demanded that his friends should
do nothing prejudicial to his interests ! This requeat was
granted in the presence of a large number of outsiders,
wbo, by this lime, had tahen possession of the room, and
overawed their opponents. Leech and Lowry walked off
with their certificates with as much monchalance as if
ihey tree backed up by a thousand majority. Will the
peoplo of Wei philadelyibia resent this outrage'? Will
they submit to one of the most flagrant insults ever of
fered to a loyal &immunity. 1 We pause for an answer.
TIM DRAFT AGAIN POSTPONED. --The
draft, which it was authoritatively announced would
take place in Philadelphia to clay, has again been post- .
poned. This is owing to a want of pinpar anrfaocurata
data so to the number of. volunteers furnlahed by the 'city
since the commencement of the war. The Draft Com
missioners make the following explanation of the matter:
It is proper to make known to the public that in cons°.
qnetice of many of the. muster rolls faiticg to state the
residences of the volunteers at the time of their enlist
ment, the Oommiesicners have found it imrssibie to ad
joet and settle the credit to which the city and county of
Yhiladelphia are entitle' -on their Quota, in' the manner'
and upon 'the hards ordered' .by the War Department,
though continuous 'and lanorlone efforts nince,their sp.'
Poiniiitent.have been made to do so. Under these cir
cumstances, there has appeared no other course open to,
the Nmmirsionere 'than to report those facts to the Ex
ecutive of the State, and to await speotal:orders as to the
Ceti !palpation of the number required to fill the quote o f
Philadelihis, and the timefor . dr:aftiagthe Sante, of which
due public notice wilt be given, "
Ib gunnel' as the credit for each volunteer has been or
dined TO be made to the place of hia residence at the
time of his enlistment, this should be - borne in mind in
the - application of all wire. bounty raised by, the contr
butions of our citizens, and care should betaken to have
each volunteer's place of residence entered on the muster
tolls, end have him reported to the'Olmosissi mar of
the ;Istria In Which - he resides, that credit may be given
proper - viartl 'aid:trrt cinct. • -

=Abe email supply of postage currency.:, however, a
supply of both the revenue and "postage currency will
soon, we learn, relieve both individuals and the Govern
ment from embarrassmt nt, and promote lt circulation be
neficialto all. Checks for fractions of a dollar are drawn
in some places, from certain banks, end we cannot un
daunted why this arrangement is not a universal one, or,
at least, more no than at premnt. Until a better provi
sion can be made, this one will be very acceptable, and
is much desired by numerous parties. Variety" is the
spice of life, and t.; change' is the spice of the couttner
cial market. livery method oft obtaining it is sought
after, and since the means mentioned seems one of the
moatlegitimate, we espzeially recommend it to- the com
munity at large.
THE DAY AFTER THE ELEOTION.-
Yesterday the glorfoue result of the election was made
topic of conversation everywhere. But few people were
disappointed vitt the result, and there was a general re
joicing among our loyal class. The only ones who. seemed
at all diseatlefied•were those few Breckinridgere who yet
hold positions under the City Government These were
loud in their cries against the true friends of the. Ad
ministration. During the day large crowds were comae
-
gated along 0 e State House row, where spirited discus
sions took place About two o'clock in the afternoon
several rows occurred along the square but the offending
pasties were promptly taken into custody, end the piiblic
peace pro setved. A party of young men from one of the
upper Wards marched through the city with a stuffed
Pis on a pole, which created much merriment. Tsalt river
tickets were also plentifully distributed over town by the
news• boys, and found ready purchasers.
CARCITY 01? COAL MINERS. —,The
high price of coal at the present time, it is said; is more
owing to the great scarcity of mthera than anything else.
Large numbers of this class of workmen have gone to
war. The complaint has been for "come time that the
miners had all enlisted, and that to procure laborers to
dig the coal was an imporidbility. Coal dealers, there
fore, in view of this emergency, have advanced the mar
ket price to each a figure that to procure fuel for ordina
ry purposes is brodensome to everybody, and to the poor
is now. and will be the coming winter, exceedingly op
preesive. The families of those who have gone to the
ware cannot afford to pay five and six dollara for one ?clad
of coal, or a priponate rate for wood.
BASIN ALL.-1 he famous Beliford
Club, of Brooklyn, N. Y., will leave for Philadelphia on
the 20th, at 2 P. 111 , via Camden and Amboy Railroad. A
committee from our clubs will meet them at Heights
town. The visit of this champion club will excite great
interest. Numbers of the best playere of New York and
Jersey will follow them, and be present at the games.
The ickfords will remain with us from Monday till Sat
urday. Our clubs, the Athletics, Olympics, and Key
stone, are eager to meet them, and desire to give them a
warm and hospitable reception. We hope our players
will do the handsome thing, for the sake of the city.
DECEASE OF MR, JOSEPH 0. LUTE.—
Nr. Joseph S Kite, an old resident of Spring Garden,
and well-known in this city as a man of enterprising ba
shams habils, died at ..tria residence on,Monday night,
aged 71 years. For a long period he was engaged in the
omnibus bmineect, being, In fact, a pioneer in that once
indispeteable branch of locomotive faCihty.. Se alao
filled the position of superintendent of the Germantown
and .Norristown Itatlroad Company for nineteen years,
and discharged his duties very- satisfactorily. Mr. Site
was a man of, very generous •dlsposition, and heswill be
kindly remembered by his many friends. - Tile innersl
will take place on to.morrow afternoon.-
_
RAILROADS.— Di Oyer before have our
railroads bEen so actively &Ennio ed as has seen the case
for the lest few months. Never have th.ir receipts been
as large. This le noticed from the dividends usually an.
nomad of lite. Their old debts are melting away like
enow•flakes. The war, by its distributim or money in
immense amounts in every section, is causing a great
revival of trade. Tbe passenger traffic, including the
movement of troops; is unPrecedented. Stockholders
will now untie their musty bundles of engraved certi
Scales, and prepare for fat dividends.
