    FOREIGN MISCELLANY.
Extracts front our Foreign Flits.
Tile MOA, On DINOUNIS, OF New LSAL AND.
—We have several times given our readers all the
information we could gather touching the remains
end indications of the living presence still in New
Zealand, of the gigantic bird called the bloc, or Di
nornis. We have now something of great interest
to add to former statements. About a year ago we
published an account of the discovery, by a party of
Government survey ore, of the tracks of a bird of
enormous size, Which appeared to have frequented a
lonely valley in the neighborhood of limestone
ridges, in which many large and unexplored caves
existed. At the time it was supposed that these
tracks in that solitary place, startling to the discov
erers as the footprint on the sandy beech of the
4 esert island to Robinson Ormn, were made by a
living specimen of the species rdoa, which had been
regarded as extinct, Mimeo were made tO discover
the bird, but they were unavailing. The tracks,
plain enough in the valley, grew fainter as they ap
proached the upper ground, and were lost on the stony
ridges. Far away from the haunts of men the explo
re re and surveyors who had discovered these traces
of the largest bird known to naturalists, ran short
of means of subsistence and returned to the settle
ments. We now find that the bird itself has been
Seen, and for the second time since the discovery and
examination of the bones of individuals determined
that a new species, probably extinct, had once ex
isted in New Zealand. As early as 1820, it began to
be reported in England that bird bones of enormous
size had been found in New Zealand. In February
1839, a small portion of these bones arrived in Eng
land. From an examination of this, Professor Owen
deduced the character of the skeleton of the bird,
and when, in 1843, a who e box full of these brews
were sent by a missionary, the deductions of the
naturalist were found to be correct. At that time it
was asserted that the aloe had been seen alive; and
the gentleman who forwarded the bones to England
transmitted intelligen eto this at. His informant
was an American, who asserted that the bird
was still in existence in the neighborhood of Oloudy
Bay, Cook's Straits. He said the natives there had
mentioned to an Englishman of a whaling party
that there was a bird of extraordinary size to be
seen only at night, on the side of a hill near there,
and that he, with a native and a second Englishman,
went to the spot ; that, after waiting some time,
they saw the creature at some Mile distance, which
they described as being fourteenor sixteen feet high.
One of the men proposed to go nearer and shoot, but
his companion was so exceedingly terrified, or per
haps both, that they were satisfied with looking at
lulu, when in a little time he took the alarm, and
strode away up the side of the mountain. The size
of the bones sent to England corresponded with the
height of the bird above described.
We now come to the latest account of a specimen
of this enormous bird having been seen. The- men
who observed this gigantic creature, as it peered
over at them from the side of a hill, have sworn to
the fads. It was about the last of February or the
beginning of March, of this year, when two men,
hearing that a gold mine was being worked on the
quiet near the banks of the Arrow, set out for that
river. One evening they halted, and built a camp
fire about twenty.five miles to the northwest of the
river. Sitting by their fire just at sundown, when
one of them with a start of alarm and surprise, ex
claimed, "Ijook at the rise, Jim I there is somebody
there," It might be a miner or it might be a native,
anti grasping their revolvers they bent their atten
tion to the new corner. It approached the edge of a
hill immediately above them, between three hun
dred and four hundred yards from where they were
sitting, rand then they discovered that it was an
enormous bird. Seeming to perceive the camp
fire, this solitary remnant of a strange race, now
all but extinct, squatted down, keeping its head
turned on one side add its eye upon the lire.
It remained there several mtnutes, but at length got
up and walked off: The steps of its retreat were
;flow, but its stride was so great that it got over the
ground eta great pace. The men judged its height
at seven feet, without reckoning the head and neck.
lie head was very long and flat, and it carried it bent
Vinyard, not 'inclined backward, as is usual with
birds 01 the ostrich tribe. The credibility of this
testimony does not seem to be questioned, and it is
generally thought that an individual of the Hos, spe
cies is 5 et living in the neighborhood of the Arrow.
An attempt is to be Lunde to find and take it alive,
which we hope will succeed. Professor Owen cal
culates the birds of the largest variety of the Hoe,
to have been above ten feet high. The bones of the
leg were almost, or quite, as large at those of an ox,
es.d those of the neck were also of extraordinary size
and strength. It stood was_the farinaceous roots of
the fern, which exists in great abundance in New
Zealand. The footprints seen last year were of a
size to correspond with a bird ten or twelve feet
high.
StirI4II6TITION IN ENGLAND.—An action for libel
bas been brought by Lieut. Morrison, of the royal
navy, against Rear-Admiral Sir Edward Belcher.
Jr appeared that the plaintiff was the author and
proprietor of a publication called " Zadkiel's Alma
one," end that inconsequence of some predictions in
1861, concerning the Prince Consort, a contemporary
inquired, in an article of the 31st of Jan. last, Who
is this Zadkiel and was answered the next day by
Sir Edward Belcher in a letter which formed the libel
complained of. Be stated that the author and the
editor of the almanac in question was a retired lieu
tenant of the navy named Morrison. lie went on to
say that Mr. M. was the same-person who, in 1852,
bad gulled many of the nobility by exhibiting a arys
tat globe, in which he pretended that various persons
saw visions and held converse with the spirits of the
.e.p , sties, even with our Saviour, with the angels of
lie ot as well' s of darkness, and could tell what was
going on in any part of the world. The essence of
the libel consisted in a further charge that he had
done this for money, knowing it to be mere import
tore. The defence was, that it had not been done
for money, and that Zadkiel had a real belief in the
virtues of his glass globe, which appeared to have
been formerly the
in
of the Countess of lies
eington, and was, n fact, well known in fashionable
society. Various persons of rank were summoned
as witnesses to show that they had seen the ball,
and that it had been shown them as a "scientific
amusement," freely and without payment. The
Earl of Wilton, among others, had seen it, but with.
out having had any " conspiracy suggested to hint
by it. The Bishop of Lichfield and Sir Bultver
Lytton gave evidence to the same effect. A clergy
man deposed that he had seen it, and that the
seer," or medium, described a vision of his son in
a distant country, but the description was so general
it was impossible to tell whether it was true or not.
Several other respeatable persons came into court
and swore to the fact of themselves or others having
looked Into this crystal ball to converse with "the
presiding spirit of the crystal," or to malse inquiries
about their children,. about Sir John Franklin,
Judas Iscariot, Titania, St. Luke, Eve, and other
subjects equally solemn or grotesque. Accounts
had been published on the strength of these visions
of Titania "as she appeared in a chariot," and St.
Luke "as be appeared on several occasions." These
personages were seen "with legends as coming out
of their mouths," and spoke various languages,
as
Lnglish, Turkish, French, Latin, and Hebrew; but
their present language seems to be totally inde
pendent of their education, inasmuch as Titania, St.
Luke, and Eve spoke English. The jury, under the
direction of the Lord Chief Justice, seem to have
thought that if so many sobef persona could be
brought to look at this crystal ball, Zadkiel might
be supposed to believe in it; and as it was not made
out that he had received any money for exhibiting
ir, they found a verdict for the plaintiff. They, how
ever, have only 20a damages, and the judge refused
to certify for costs.
TEE CONFEDERATE LOAN.—The “Confederate
loan" is just now in a sad plight. Two days before
the last despatches arrived, and at a time when no
news could possibly have reached Paris from Ame
rica, a rumor was set afloat at the Bourse that
General Lee had encountered General Meade, and
that the Federal army was entirely cut to pieces.
The next day we were startled with the announce
ment that an American steamer from New York for
Liverpool, with $1,500,000 in gold, had been cap
ture d by the Alabama, and those who did not hap
pen to reflect that there was no American steamer
p!ptne between those porta gave credit to the asser
tion; but nothing could revivify the Confederate loan;
and besides, any one who will take the trouble to
inform himself will find that there is not a 'Jewish
banker in Europe who has any of their bonds. But,
said the gentleman who had entered into conversa
titm with the baron, mr. Ehrlanger, of Paris, who
holds the criater part of these bonds, is a Jew.
Ah ! e said Baton Rothschild, "Mr. Ehrlanger is a
Jew turned Christian"'
_ .
It continues prodigiously "heavy" in spite of all
the ruses employed to lighten it. At Frankfort it is
not even quoted at the Bourse, while United States
stocks sell readily. Baron Rothschild, the head of
the great house which bears hie name, upon being
asked if he had any of the Confederate bonds, replied
" No; I have no confidence in the loans, or in the
Confederate cause."-Paris Correspondence of the
World
AFFAIRS 7N BBELIN.—The street rows have not
been tenewed, and Berlin has relapsed into the state
of sullen tranquility from which they had momen
tarily to nosed it. We were highly amused with
the description given of these disturbances in a
Faris journal, which converted them into a regular
insurrection, with barricades attacked by the mili
tary, end defended by the people amid the cries of
"Long live the Constitution . t" and "Down with
Bit Mar k!" The fact is, that notwithstanding they
n ay be considered as a symptom of the wide-spread
dtscontent which undoubtedly exists in Prussia,
and especially in the capital, they had not as yet .
assumed any political character, and even the
.Kreuz Zeitung has been unable to trace them to the
tuaehinations, of the revolutionary party, or to
ground upon them a charge of conspiracy against
the constitutional opposition. Of nearly five hun
dred individuals who were arrested during the
four evenings on which the riots continued,
there were only three. belonging to the
better classes—one of them being a young
Prim cepsterhazy, attachd to the Austrian:'Embassy,
who had incautiously approached the scene of action
to see what was going on, and was pounced upon by
the constables and hauled ott to prison, along with
the of noddoi of plebeians, but was released next
twining, with many apologies. Indeed, the greater
part of the captives have been already, set at liberty
as not having taken any active share in the fray,
and only fifty-one have been detained to await their
trial for "disturbing the king's peace." ehe pro
ceedings against them, however, will excite less in
terest than those against the Polish noblemen from
the Grand Duchy of Posen, who are accused of high
treason, and have been brought here to be placed
before the tribunal specially appointed for offences
of that nature—a sort of star chamber, on the Stuart
plan—composed, not of jurymen, but of judges nomi
nated by the Crown. Some of the delinquents are
scions of the first families in 'the province; but the
members of the alleged Secret Committee at Posen,
Count Djialyaeki, Guthrie, Count Roger Raezyaelci,
&e., have escaped, and will hardly think it advisable
tr. return from Paris and stand their trial before such
a cour t --Corre.epondence of the Herald.,
AGRICULTURE.
THE CROPS IN MAY AND JUNE.-11.0n. LULU
Newton, commissioner of agriculture, has prepared
and published - a report of the condition of the crops
curing the months of. May and June. -
Prom this report it appears that a tenth more
land was sown this heason with ,
wheat than the sea
son of 1862, which was the largest crop ever grown
in this country. The appearance of this crop has
varied, but as a general thing there is a prospect of
a large yield. Spring wheat has sustained about
one tenth injury from all causes.
Barley Is excellent. Corn is generally small in
Size, on account of the drought, but its appearance
is only one-tenth below the standard of A good MP,
Oats has also suffered somewhat front the drought,
but ir it escapes the rust the crop will still be better
than that of last year.
Tobacco culture, on account of the war, has In
creased rapidly In the loyal States. The amount
planted this year, as shown by the table for June, is
ceventy-fiVe per cent, over that of last year. In ap
pearance it is nearly an average, being one-tenth
below it.
Grass is two•tentbs below the standard appear
ance of a good crop.
Flax fa twelve above the average of last year's
crop.
Of wool the tables show an increase of twenty
per cent. iu the number of sheep over those of last
year,
The increase of sorgham is twenty-seven per cent.
The appearance of the cotton crop, so tar, is fa
vorable. The dry weather enabled farmers to free
it from weeds and grass. During the drought it was
but one-tenth below the average of a good crop;
and in amount the increase is eighty per cent.
over last year in the localities where it is now culti
vated, which are much fewer than those of last
year
PEACHES.—lndianapolis papers are boasting that
ripe peaches made their appearance in that city on
last Friday. That was just ten days behind this
city, and our peaches are of the finest type. They
sell at the rate of about two cents each. Sweet po
tatoes are also in the market. - We don't believe
there is a better vegetable market than Evansville
in the world. The amount and quality displayed
and sold morning after morning is truly astonishing.
—Evansville Journal.
MUSICAL.
The French Gazette Musicale apprises us that Mlle.
Adelina Patti has been " commanded" by the Queen
of Spain to sing during the winter of 1863-4 in the
capital of her birth, Madrid, and that she will there
fore relinquish her engagements in Paris. Madame.
Borghl.Maino is to reappear at the Italian Opera
there. The same journal reports that Mad. Gabel
is absolutely unwise enough to intend devoting her
self in future exclusively to Italian opera there. It
is too late ; some years ago, when she attempted the
folly in London, the result was to make it clear that
it would be needful for her entirely to remodel her'
style, which is unmistakably that of seeonTdVolass
French comic opera. What, by the way, has become
of Madame Andrea Pavel, a rising Binger who some
Sean ago disappeared from her own stage, announo
ing the came intentions? It is not once out of
'twenty times that the metamorphosis is successful.
Even Madame Oharton Demeur does not appear
able to sustain herself as an Italian singer on this
aide of the Atlantic, as we have said, having ac
cepted an engagement at the Theatre Lyrique, to
Plug in " Lea Troyens ' "by M. Berlioz. That me
teoric lady, MadameUgalde, has returned to the
Opera Comique, and to her old part in M. Masse's
lively " Galatee." " Diavolina," a new one•act
ballet, has been produced at the Grand Opera, for
Mouravieff: the music is by Signor Pugni.
M. Offenbach has his hands full of commissions. We
now teed of yet another opera, the book by Mal.
Cremleux and 0-ille, called "Le Don Juan de Po
rentruy," which he has undertaken to compose. M.
de Lamartine has given permission to MM. Carte
and •Barbiere to dramatise his last novel, " Folic
d'Allza," for music. M. Gounod has been invited.
to write for La Scala, at Milan, and may possibly
*let " Le Cie" for that theatre.
Meanwhile the list of fifteen new operas produced
during the first moiety of 1863, in the flan. Thea
tre, tells a dismal tale of barrenness and destitution.
Anew " Mazeppa," by Signor Pedrotti, is promised
for the winter season at Vienna.
The manuscript of a lost opera, never performed,
"Christmas Eve," by Lortzing, has been discovered
in the library of the Friedrich Wilhelmstadt Thea
tre, in Berlin, where it_will be duly performed. The
opera prepared by Herr Litolff, for Baden Baden, is
entitled "The Chevalier Nahel."
Madame Lind Goldschmidt is announced to sing
at the benefit concert of Madame 'Mahal, at the
Hanover-square Rooms, on Wednesday morning,
July 22. Artot, Madame Trebelli, Mlle. 17-Ca
pita, Signor Bettini, Signor Gassier, Mr. Santley,
M. Auer, Mr. Charles Halle, Mr. Otto Goldsah
and Signor Arditti, will also give their valuable as
sistance to the fair ben4ficiaire.
A popular parody of Benedict's " Lily of Killar
ney," performed in Germany as "The Rose of
Fein," is being played at Schwerin under the title
"The Rose of Schwerin." Another rather personal
travestie on Adelina Patti, her sister, and the lat
ter's husband, under .the title " Abellina ; Or, A
Brother-in-law for Everything," is creating an im
mense furor at the Vienna suburban theatres,
TI-II CITY.

LABORS Or TIER SANITARY ComusstON.
—The people ought not to lose sight of the im
mense work which the Sanitary Ooramisaion is do
ing for the aid and relief of the army. Since the
battle of Gettysburg it has sent to the Army of the
Potomac alone over, 20,000 pounds of fresh bread,
20,000 pounds of fresh mutton and poultry, 10,000
pounds of condensed beef soup, 9,000 pounds of
condensed milk, 5.000 pounds of fresh butter,lo,ooo
dozens of fresh eggs, 6,000 tons of fresh vegtables,
4,000 pounds of sweet chocolate, 4,000 pairs of shoes
and slippers, 1 ton of tamarinds, 300 boxes of le
mons and oranges; of ,jellies, farinaceous food, wines,
Ambits, cordials, sponges, towels, lint, bandages,
socks, and hospital clothing, many car loads.
Its operations at the West and Southwest are on
a scale of equal magnitude, and their value to
the national cause has been publicly recognized in
general orders. The zeal and self-devotion of its
agents is shown by the fact that three of them are
now prisoners at Richmond, and that several have
lost their lives by diseaees contracted in the dis
charge of their duties.
The expense incurred in the purchase of clothing,
stimulants, and stores of every kind, and of horses
and wagons to transport them, (so as to escape the
inevitable delays of Government .transportation,);
in the employment of the best medical aid, and in the
other labors of the Commission, i 9 necessarily great.
Since the 15th of June last the Commission has ex
pended more than one hundred and twenty-three
thousand dollars for these objects, and its receipts
from the public bounty, on which it is wholly de
pendent, have been less than forty-one thousand dol
lars.
It is evident that the Commission will soon be
obliged either to contract its operations more materi-
ally or to close its depdts and retire from the field alto
gether, unless its treasury be largely replenished.
This would be especially unfortunate at the present
time, \when a great body of troops is about to be
mustered into service, needing all the aid the Com-
mission can give to prevent them from suffering the
consequence of inexperience and ignorance of sani
tary laws.
The following letter has-been handed to us for
publication :
lIRGEON GENERAL'S OFFICE, '
WASHINGTON CITY, D. C., -Tull , 20, 1863.
MY DEAR DOCTOR BELLOWS: I feel as if I could
never thank you too much for the aid rendered by
yourself and other members of the Sanitary Com
mission to the wounded at Gettysburg. But for
you and the other benevolent persons who came to
our relief, things would have gone much harder with
the sufferers than they did.
Your labors were of such a character as to call
forth the commendations of all who knew of them,
and I should be neglectful of my duty if I did not tell
you how deeply grateful I am for all you kve done.
Yours, sincerely,
WILLIAM A. HAMMOND, Surgeon Gen.

A DESERTING SUBSTITUTE SHOT.—About
2 o'clock, yesterday afternoon, a substitute. known
as Isaac Grant, attempted to escape from a steam
transport, at Vine•street wharf, by jumping into
the river. He was shot, and the body immediately
sunk. Grant recently appeared at the Central Sta
tion as a witness against a fellow•thief. He entered
into the service of the country as a substitute, and
yesterday afternoon, while the boat was preparing
to leave for Fortress Monroe, having a number of
recruits on board, he sprang into the river and at
tempted to escape by swimming under water. The
officer in command directed the guard to fire. Grant
came up to breathe, but in a moment dived under
again and escaped. He succeeded in this ruse
several times pretty well. At last the officer seized
a musket, and, when Grant's head appeared above
the surface, tired, the ball taking mortal effect. The
swimming deserter sank to rise no more. Eleven
shots were fired at hid.
DEATH OF A WELL-KNOWN CITIZEN.—
Colonel Lemuel Paynter, a well-known citizen, died
at his residence,. on Saturday, in the seventy-fifth
year of his age. He was a soldier of the war of 1812.
During hie eventful life, he lilted a number of im
portant public positions. He was a member of Con
gress in MB, and, subsequent to that period, was a
member of the Board of Guardians of the Poor, and
Commissioner of the district of Southwaik, of which
board he was president a number of years. He was
an motive politician of the eld Democratic school,
but relinquished that party when it departed from
the pathway of patriotism and honor, and from that
period until the time of his death was an uncondi
tional Union man. Dlr. Paynter was esteemed for
his correct and careful business habits.
ARRIVAL OF THE AREANSAS.—The sup
ply-steamer Arkansas arrived at the Philadelphia
naval station yesterday morning, under command
of. Lieutenant W. H. West, from the Atlantic
Blockading Squadron. The steamer had on board
one hundred and fifty passengers, a number of them
being invalids. Commander R. H. Wyman, Com
mander J. H. Hpshur, and Flag-lieutenant Pres
ton, of the South Atlantic Squadron, were among
the passengers. The bombardment and siege of
Fort Wagner was progressing favorably as the
steamer was passing northward. During the recent
trip the Arkansas supplied forty vessels. She will
start on the return next Saturday. Letters and
packages for the squadron may be left at the navy
Tasd up to the time of departure.
DEATH FROM THE HEAT. —The Coroner
Was called yesterday to hold an inquest on the body
of a man who had fallen in Cumberland street,
from the excessive beat of the weather. From
papers found upon his person, the deceased, it is
supposed, was an Englishman, named John Hind,
who had not been in the country any great length
of time. Among the papers was a letter dated
Hyson Green, May 22d, 1863, signed Mary Hind. It
Was postmarked Nottingham, July 7th, and ad
-dressed as follows " John Hind, passenger, second
cabin, ship Constantine, river Mersey, Liverpool."
The body was removed to the Green House.
U. S. Cruusmix TEAM.—A telegram was
received yesterday, from M. R. 'Patrick, provost
marshal general, announcing that the U. S. Chris
tian Commission team, that had been captured by
rebel cavalry, had, safely arrived at the headquarters
of the Army of the Potomac on Sunday. Theteam,
while stopping to feed at Fairfax Station, was cap
tured by rebel cavalry dressed in the national uni
form, and ordered to Richmond. Their safe arrival
at the national army headquarters is more satisfac
tory to loyal people.
THE KEYSTONE BATTERY.—This bat
tery, which left the city about twelve months ago,
is expected home this afternoon, their term of ser
vice having expired.. Part of the battery arrived in
Washington on Saturday afternoon, and the balance
on Sunday. Horses and ammunition have been al
ready given up, and the men return after a C 8133,
paign of considerable peril and much , privation.

are yet well filled.

zens of the garden of the State are to be treated
with some dramatic entertainments by the members
of the Walnut-street Theatre company, commencing
on to-morrow evening. Mr. S. O. Dubois, Sam
Hemple, and W. H. Bailey, we notice among the'-
names. The company is excellent, and we con;:
gratulate our country friends at the prospect of,
pleasure before them.
DEATHS FROM HEAT.-14Irs. Plecker, WhO
lived at 524 South Third street, died suddenly yes
terday afternoon.
Daniel Mahoney, who resided on Mineral Place,
also died very suddenly. Death, it is supposed, was
caused by the oppressive heat of the weather.

street, was run over by Adams Express car at Seven
teenth and Market streets, last evening, and was in

a rope. He was also conveyed to the hospital.
OPEN Fon INSPECTrON. -- The grand
cathedral of St. Peter and Paul, on Eighteenth
street, near Vine street, will be thrown open on

gives a full idea of its ultimate character, It ie stated
to be one of the largest churches in the country.

SIENT.—Under command of Colonel Albright, as an
acknowledgment for the many acts of kindness mani
fested by the residents of the Nineteenth ward, the

Shipmasters on their arrival in the _River Plate,
are warned not to receive on board any pilot for
either Montevideo or Buenos Ayres without making
a bargain with him for the pilotage, in writing.
The act of receiving a pilot on board without
making any agreement with him obliges captains
to pay in accordance with the exhorbitant tariff of
which at the foot of the present is a copy'; and by
making the agreement verbally it is in most cases
disputed afterwards, by the pilots pleading their
ignorance of foreign languages, &c. The matter has
given rise to exceedingly unpleasant questions, and,
in the end captains are always condemned by the
authorities, and obliged to pay the full tariff:
Captains who do not require a pilot from' Monte
video to Buenos Ayres, had better not engage be
fore their arrival at the former port as there are
always a number of pilots offering at from $3O up
wards.

to keep handy sample packages of cargo for delivery
upon arrival.

GENE - RA - 11Y .
On SATURDAY, August let. I open my new establish
ment, the spacious Store and Vaults of No. 439 CHEST
NUT. Street, for your approval and approbation, where I
trust I shall merit a continuance of the liberal patronage
I have hitherto always received from yourhands.
In view of a misunderstanding that I am told exists in
the minds of many in regard tb the sudden termination
of my business on the S E. coViier, of Third and Chest
nut streets it is hoped the following brief facts will exz
plain: On the night of June 29d,' during my absence from
the city, I was forcibly dispossessed by ink reputed land
lord, and my stock placed in the streets. As I was justly
in possession, I have sought redress :for the outrage in
the law courts of Philadelphia.
Respectfully yours.

DEAR Sin: During the night of May 19, 1863. oar Grp
men, and Provision Store, at North Second and WHIM
streets, took fire at about 2 o'clock A. M., and as the
store was a two-story wood building it burnt rapidly.
and before the lire• eng ines tumid act upon the fire, out
i
whole stock of goods,-including munch combustible ma.
Serial. and amounting to over *2.000, were wholly de.
eiroyed. We had one of your No. 1/ Chilled Iron Safes,
which was in the hottest part of the fire, and it came old
of the fire not in the least- injured, except the melting of
of the name. plate and paint. The contents inside were
not affected in the least, and we consider the S.afejust as
good a protection against tire now as before, and shall
nee it hereafter with increased confidence. The leek
works as perfectly as before the fire.
Yours truly . , MOMANUS & CROFT.
Late 429 North_ SECOND Street.
Attention to the above certificate is partiadarly re
quested, as it is the first trial of LILLIE'S SAFES in as
accidental fire in Philadelphia.

I would say to all parties who wants Fire and
Burglar-proof Safe that LILLIE'S WROUGHT AND

only real Fire and_ Burglar-proof Safes now made; and
to those who want simply a Fire-proof, I would say that
LILLIE'S WROUGHT LEON WE is fully equal in all
respects to any of the most-approved makers, and Is
sold at frilly one-third lessprice.
I also am receiving daily in exchange for Lillis's
Wrought and Chilled Iron Safes other Safes. and keep
constantly on hand a general assortment of HERRING'S,

almost new, Which I offer at, and even 'below, auction
