TEE NEWS.
. .
At a late hour we have received interest
'g and important inforthation, upon which
,present comment must be brief. lt is not
: officially, but is reliably, announced that
•General GRANT *Rs been appOinted to' the
of the Armies of the °timberland,
'Ohio, and Kentucky, with the all powers
to which he is justly entitled by the splen
dor of his past achievements. This appoint
ment is welcome ; it will satisfy the. best
Wends of the cause, and cannot offend the
Warmest admirers of the General superseded.
General ROSE.CRANS has been relieved from
the command of the Army of the Cumber
land, and is succeeded by'General Tawas,
that brave and skilful soldier, who, at Chick
amanga, with his own corpfbalone, repelled
a far superior• force of the enemy, and saved
the rest of the army from great disaster.
No one can doubt his fitness for the corn
. anand. The military changes in the West
.1011 be somewhat startling to the; publie, but
are demanded by the highest interests of the
country.
The proclamation of Governor SEYMOUR,
appealing to the people of New York tp
answer the call of the President for volun
teers, is earnest, and therefore worthy. He
clearly shows the necessity that- the
army should be thus strengthened,- - and
low, in justice to the cause; to the
-wildiers who are now fighting for the
Union, all loyal citizens should prompt-
ly answer. We regret that, he should
state'dangers that do not exist, and that his
language gives the false impression that men
are needed to sustain a failing cause, not to
• strengthen one which is triumphant. Nor
can we approve of his unnecessary and in
genious, reference to the "inequalities and
sufferings of the draft," The support he
gives to the Government at a moment the
danger of which he exaggerates, should not
be qualified by--uncalled-for opposition.
A report was circulated in the city last
evening, that another raid into - Maryland,
and possibly into Pennsylvania, was antici-
pated. It is impossible to trace it to any
I,rustworthy source. No information of any,
danger was received in Harrisburg at a late
lour, and no fact is known which gives the
slightest probability to the rumor. On the
contrary, all the kuown facts flatly contra
dict it.
The Belligerent' , Question.
The latest news from Europe includes an
- item to the effect that " Prince CZAUTORYSICI
Is taking formal steps, in the name of the
National Polish Government, to obtain from
the Cabinets of London and Paris the re
cognition of Poland as a belligerent nation."
Before offering any remarks upon this
subject, it may be proper to state who the
- person is thus reported to be acting for the
Polish Government.
The Prince WITOLD CZARTORYSKI is the
Son of the late Prince ADAM CZARTOEYSET,
n descendant of OLGERD, the founder of the
Jegelloniam dynasty of Poland ; was edu
cated in England, where his liberal opinions
were confirmed, and fought against Russia
in the war opposed to the second partition
- of Poland in 1793. Subsequently, he held
high office in Russia, successively under the
Emperors PALM and ALaxAxn.un, and from
1803 to 1821, was also curator of the Uni
versities of Vilna, where he constantly
labored to keep alive a spirit of nationality.
When the revolution of 1830 - broke out, he
heartily joined it, was made head of the
Provisional Government, and summoned
a National Diet, which met, and, in
January, 1831, declared the Polish" throne
'vacant, and elected Prince CzAitmonvsm
head of the Nstional Government, with the
understanding that when Poland was libe
- rated he was to be made King. At once he
4jevoted one half of his large estates to the
'public service, and used every practicable
effort to resist, baffle, and defeat the power
of Russia, and to engage Ihe active' co-ope
ration of Europe, on the side of freedom.
'He labored, ' meliore spe quam fortune,"
with;better hope than fortune, for the Poles
- were crushed, and the Czar NICHOLAS spe
excepted CzAnTonysm from the
amnesty, besides confiscating , his estates in
- Poland. Fortunately, 'however, the Prince
also had large possessions in Galicia, (a-part
of the Kingdom of Poland .:that was trans
ferred to Austria in the partition of 1773,)
and the revenue of these enabled him to live
in Paris, according to his high rank, afford
.
ing counsel and relief to his less fortunate
co-exiles and countrymen, and ever the cen
tre of. their hope of a revived nationality.
In 1846, having sanctioned the revolutionary
movement which sought to drive the AuS
trians out of Cracow, his Galician estates
were confiscated, but' were restored in 1848,
in which "yeas' of revolutions" he issued
a proclamation calling on France and Ger
,
many to unite in an effort for the restoration
of Poland, and, at the same, time liberated
all his serfs in Galicia. During the Crimean
war he ineffectually endeavored to induce
the Allies to identify the cause of Poland
with that of Turkey. His death is compa
=ratively-recent. His eldest son, Prince Wr
'TOLD CzARTORYBKI, born in 1824, lives in
Paris,. in the same style of amost regal
- magnificence, and is understood to cherish
the idea that, if Poland were liberated, he
-would be chosen King.
It is probable that NApornow would be
- willing to accede to the desire of the Poles,
-and immediately acknowledge them as bel-
Ilgerents ; but here, unfortunately, lie would
be met by Earl RussaLL's deliberate decla-
ration, in the House of Lords, last August,
and subsequently in public speeches, that
England would not take part, under any
•circumstance's, in the contest between the
. Czar and his Polish subjects. Yet, with his
.accustomed feeblenesh . of purpose, (like
IYLicisrun's letting "I dare not" wait upon
." I would," ) this same Earl Russum, stated,
in his latest attempt at speech-making, at
Blairgowrie, on the 26th of September, that
Russia should be - wise in time, and take care
how, *ill treatment of the Poles, he pro
voked Europe into a general rising in their
behalf, and significantly suggesting whether,
by failing to carry out all the stipulations of
the Treaty of`Vienna, Russia had not vir
tually forfeited all right to possess Poland.
Ks Russia is a powerful and progressive
empire, governed by a man with brains in
his head and a heart in his breast, Lord
litiesomr, will never go against such a Power
*ith limy more formidable weapon than an
• insolent halvague. When any thing like
.anger is exhibited, because of liis.imperti
mence, he will back put, and say,;'" Entland
- was the best friend Itwia had ; she sym-
Tathiied with Poland ; she wrote heaps of
endless despatches and protocols about Po-
land . ; bUt she brought a man to trial and
' , condemnation for trying to enlist recruits in
. •England for the Polish army, and, above
,all, she steadily refused to acknowledge the
"Toles as belligerents.",
A great nation, such as England pro-
Asses to be, and as England undoubtedly
ought not to be guilty of any petty
meanness, of any palpable inconsistency.
But her conduct has been mean and incon
sistent as regards Russia and the United
'States. The Southern rebellion, accom-
plished by the vilest treachery, was utterly
•causeless— a violation of the Constitution,
wholly unprovoked and unwarranted. For
the Polish rebellion, on •-the contrary, there
- was only too much .cause. Ninety years
ago an unholy trinity of nations-Russia,.
:PruSsiii, and Austria—fell upon Poland, as
highWaymen might suddenly fall 'upon a
defencelesstraveller, and divided 16 territo-:
-rytetween themselves. A little was' then
left untouched, and that little was selzfg.l
and appropriated twenty years later. The
4"Olel ever protested against this ; they never
. co .
•autarutted to it. They.llay, nstitotly,en-,
deavored, more particularly those under
Itugslan sway, to throw off the yoke. They
have, for the most part, beer inuch misgo
verned ; and, when they broke into revolt,
last February, it was because the Czar's
officials had acted more cruelly than before.
The Czar himself, we believe, means well,
and is humane, but bad acts have been com
mitted in his name." What he should have
tried to accomplish was to incorporate Po
land with Russia, just as Wales was incor
porated with England ; by being granted
equal rights and equal laws. That the Czar
will eventually endeavor to do this, dw can
doubt. •
Poland,. which has been in arms against
Russia for the'last nine months, has not yet
been acknowledged as "belligerent,", by
England. That is, England virmally,holds
that the Poles are mere rebels who ought
to be chastised into submission. The gal
lant stand they have made against the gi
gantic power of Russia counts for nothing
with England, looking through the mini.
fying spectacles of lEarl RUSSELL. " Let
the Poles win, if they can," his Lordsllip
stammers out, "we won't admit that they
are anything but vile -rebels, until they
achieve independence."
Very different was the action of this same
small 'Earl towards the United States. As
soon as the first rebel shot was fired at Fort
Sumpter, there wasan eager alacrity and
an impatient rapidity in acknowledging the
Secessionists as "belligerents"—which, at
once, gave them a status before the, nations,
and, as regards their ships, deprived them
of their true character and responsibility as
pirates, elevating them into regular vessels
of war sailing under a national flag. Had
England, at the commencement, withhold
from- acknowledging the Secessionists
as "belligerents," the Rebellion would
speedily have been put down ; English
pelicy has maintained. it. That same
policy, despite all efforts that Prince
CzAwronvsKr may make, will prevent Eng
land from acknowledging the Poles as "bel
ligerents." England, a coward to the strong,
is afraid of quarrelling with:
; Russia; but be
lieved that the United States had got into
a trouble likely to resolve the Union back
to its first elements of separate States, and
therefore, very, magnanimously, hastened
to side with the South. That is the key to
England's conduet as regardrthis country
and Russia.. -
Mexico.
MAXIMILIAN, of Austria, has given a wisp,
but embarrassing reply, to the deputation
froth Mexico which offered him the newly:
declared empire. I will accept the throne,
he said, if my brother allows me ; if the
leading European Powers will guarantee
my being maintained on the throne ; and if,
the principle of universal suffrage being -put
into practice, the general voice of Mexico
call me to govern that country. -
France, alone, among the leading Powers
of Europe, is likely to take any active step
towards Maintaining the new Emperor on
the throne which NAPOLEON has erected for
him. But the cost of supporting a large
French force in Mexico will be heavY on
that country, and, the presence of such a
farce there may be unacceptable to the Mexi
cans. The leading European Governments
will recognize the new Emperor, of course
—seeing that Austria, France, and England
lead off—but will they keep him on the
throne ? Should a rebellion break out, it
will find him several thousand miles from
Europe, and In may be deposed or dead
weeks before the trans-Atlantic inhabitants
ever learn the facts.
As for the plebiscite which he desires, it is
anew feature in European history to find a
member of the House. of Hapsburg desiring
to appeal directly to the masses of the peo
ple, for he does so by requiring to be elected
by universal suffsage. There are nearly nine
million of inhabitants in Mexico, but not
one in nine is likely to cast a vote for any
person in the election of Emperor. The
part of Mexico actually occupied by the
French. is the District of Mexico (containing
the capital) and portions of the proVinces of
Puebla and Vera Cruz. Wherever- the
French soldiersare votes for MAXIMILIAN
may be expected ; where they are not, there
will probably , be no ?oting at all; -- will this
satisfy MAXIMILIAN ? Mes this resemble
his idea of being chosen by the spontaneous
voice of the whole nation?
The Mexican deputation will come home
to get up a pseudo-election. Exclusive of
the Territory of Lower California, the Re
public of Mexico consists, by the Constitu
tion of 1857, of twenty-four States. The
French may get up the shadow of a plebis
cite in three - of these ; but will the remain
ing States, or any of thein, vote for Nero-
LEON'S nominee ? Out of 9,000,000 Mexi
cans, at least 2,250;000, or one-fourth, ought
to be able to vote, under a plebiscite. It will
surprise us, when the votes are counted, if
even 300,000 be cast for MAxr.umrAx. This
not representing the voice of the whole
nation, will MAxriumrArr accept the throne ?
He is said to be a liberal man—a true gen
tleman, with high feelings of honoy—can
he, as such, consider a few votes, given
under French infinence, as expressing the
- spontaneous opinion of the whole of Mexico ?
Ins conditional acceptance of the throne is
based on his being called to it by the gene
_
ral wish of the nation.
A Worthy Tribute to Gov. Curtin from
a Distinguished Statesman.
We do not consider ourselves at liberty
to publish the name, of the writer of the
communication signed "A Pennsylvanian,''
in another column, but it is one justly re
spected by the loyal. No name, however,
could add emphasis to the few, strong, sin
cere words spoken for our Goverilisr ; their
truth is sufficient. Nor, indeed, can the
praise of any man, however high his posi
tion, however dear his services to his coun
trymen, equal that last noble.compliment
paid to ANDREW G. CURTIN by the Union
men of Pennsylvania. In re-electing
. him
to the Chief Magistracy of the State, the
people have said more in his favor, and said
it more eloquently, than any of the eminent
orators of the campaign. Their ipproval
of his administration - is more than any
other approval; their refutation of the
slanders of his enemies aakes other argu
ment unnecessary ; theiM is the highest
tribunal to which he could appeal for a
vindication of his course, and its decision is
final and conclusive in his favor. Still, we
are glad to give prominence 'to this able
letter, especially as it so clearly shows the
difficulties with which the Union party con
tended, and the great service which Gov.
CURTIN himself rendered to the Union
cause. No candidate ever asked his fellow
citizens for their support with more dignity
and candor than he. He had no principles,
no purposes to conceal, but fully declared
all that he believed, all that he disbelieved,
all that he had done,and all that he wished
to do. His friends found that the best ar
.
gument in his favor was his own honest
pledge, that in his future administration
he would support the Government as tho
roughly as he had done in his past, and
his faith that the best way to serve the
State was to aid in saving the Country.
Our distinguished correspondent has embo
died in forcible words . the loyal answer of
the people in response to this loyal appeal,
and his tribute to Gov. CURTIN is identical
with theirs.
Singular Earthquake.
A great earthquake has recently .shaken
the ocean-bedded foundations of Old Eng
land. Mr. CHARLES DICKENS • describes it
as " a singular heaving motion, exactly as
if some great beast had t been crouching
under the bed, and was shaking itself and
trying to arise." It had- an undulating
movement from east to west. It is re
markable that an earthquake equally
startling has of late shaken the foundations
of America, and its motion is also exactly,
like that of a great beast trying ,to rise, but
held down by some superior strength. But,
unlike the English earthquake, - ours had an
'original movement from south to north,
now reversed, and passing away with a
mumbling and subsiding noise 'towards the:
Gulf of Mexico.
THE incompleteness of the official returns
makes it impossible to give an . accurate
statement of the majority for Governor
°m um. It still, remains fairly estimated
at froiii eighteen to twenty's thousand. A
few days should enable tfs . to'glye . the entire
official vote.
Tan strength that lies in a`name is shown
by the fact that thousands of votes were cast
in oppmition to Democratic principles, be
cause the disloyal leaders in Pennsylvania
usurped the Democratic 'title. A oorre
spondent of the Evening Poet justly says on
this subjeat "The cause of the coun
_
try is the cause of ; the' true Demo
cracy. In that enemies have perverted the
name and the organization of the party' to
their own ends, in the dissolution of the Re
public, is good reason for rescuing both the
name and the Government from parricidal
hands. The people have nobly rescued the
Government; it remains with the Papers to
rescue the name, not so much for home -in
fluence as foreign reputation. Monarchists
and aristocrats are prone to mock at the De
mocracy, while they respect the Republic.
They may learn that the voice of the peo
ple and the voice .of 'the Republic are one
before the world, to defend the country
against alt its enemies at home or abroad."
THosE kind gentlemen who have at
tempted the ungrateful task of showing
why Mr. Justice WOODWARD was not
elected, and how he ought to have been, are
not very ingenious. Can we not have some
thing profound and philosophical, instead
of the pitiful old story of false returns, and
fearful bribery, and intimidation of voters
by an armed and ferocious soldiery at the
polls ? If Copperheadism were candid it
could easily account for its defeat by its
own disloyalty. The Union victory in
Pennsylvania is not anomalous ; it but re
peats the triumph in Maine, Vermont, Cali
fornia, Obio, Indiana, and lowa.

PROCIIMATIOPi OF GOVERNOR SEIROUR
OF NEW YORK.
Our A rmies Declared Imperilled, and the
People 'galled upon to Volunteer.
EXECUTIVE CHAMBER, ALBANY,
October 20th, 1863.
The President of the United States has called
upon me, as Governor of the State of New York, to
furnish its quota of 300,000 men, to recruit the vo
lunieer forces of the United States, Which will be
largely reduced during the coming year by the expi
ration of the terms of enlistment.
At this time the defences of the national capital
are menaced by a superior foree, the Army of the
Cumberland is in an imperilled condition, and the
military operations of the Government are delayed
' and hindered by the want of adequate military,
power, and ere threatened with serious disaster.
In this emergency it is the duty of all the citizens
to listen to the appeal sent forth by the President,
and to give efficient and cheerful aid in filling up the
thinned ranks of our armies.
It is due to our brethren in the field who have
battled so heroically for the flag of-our country, the
tinier' of Ahe_States,_and to uphold. the Constitu
tion, that prompt and vol - untary - assurrance - shourer
be sent to them in this moment of their peril. They
went forth in the full confidence that they would
at all times receive from their fellow-citizens at
home a generous and efficient support. Every
emotion of pride and patriotism should impel us to
give this by volunteering and cheerful contribution
of men and money, and not by a foried conscriptiot
or coercive action on the part of the Government.
The-President also advises the citizens of the
several States that, in the event of the failure to
raise the quotas assigned too them, a draft shall be
made for the defieienoy, to commence on the sth day
of January next.
Not only does duty to our soldiers in the field
and the honor of the nation demand that we shall
continue to, fill our armies by voluntary enlistments,
but the interests of all classes in society will be pre
moted by the success of that system.
The unequal burden which conscription unavoid
ably afflicts on a portion of society not only causes
great distress and injury to individaals, but one
more hurtful to the whole community than the
equalized distribution of the cost and sacrifice of
volunteering, which more perfectly adjusts itself to
the condition of all classes.
The bounties which will be paid by the General
Government are extremely liberal, and much larger
than those heretofore given. They will aid the
volunteers who shall enter the service to make im
mediate and staple'provision for those dependent
upon them,
I expect all classes of our citizens to assist re•
smiting the volunteers Called for front this State,
by their, influence and by liberal contribution's, and
I call upon all State officers
, to give every assist
ance in their power to promote enlistments into
our armies, and thus save our citizens from the ine
qualities, irritations, and sufferings of the draft,
and at the same time animate our soldiers by an
exhibition of sympathy and patriotic devotion, and
give strength to our armies in their battles for the
preservation of the Union.

Terrible Accident at Troy, N.Y.
TEN PERSONS 'KILLED; AND °TUBES WOUNDED
,
A sad accident occurred in Troy, yesterday, by
the giving way of the bank of sewer which was
in course of construction on a principal street. The
Tima nay e :
"The firifevidence of the disaster to thgse above
ground was - a, sharp report, 'caused by thlfrenepping
of a brace and plank. Another gave way, then
another, followed by the dull roar of the, ground as
it swallowed its victims. '
. .
"Messrs. Jacobi & Caswell, contractors for build
ing the sewer, who were both present, immediately
set to work with all their force of men and a host
of volunteers to rescue the sufferers. One or two
men who were near the surface hopped out at once
uninjured. Others were rescued by a little digging
but when a crowd had collected and the painful
facts of the disasteLwere noised abroad, it was
found that fifteen mai had been buried in the land
slide, and that, dead or living, they could only be
brought to the surface by painful, laborious toil.
"Mayor Van Alstyne took command of the-con
stables and policemen who assembled promptly, and
by his efforts prevented a second avalanche, from
the anxiety and curiosity of spectators.
.Soon a
head was brought to light,' and the man was found
to be living. A drink of water was given him, and
he was slowly unearthed. A heavy rain-storm
began to fall,..but still the work want on—the soft
earth rising from the trench by, shOvele-full, and
every possible effort making to rescue the men.
' Up -to two o'clock none -of the men who were
deeply buried had been rescued. John Shaughnessy,
a weir• known laborer, was reached, with every pre
ened that he would - be.saved. He reported that
there were two men near him, dead. Three brick
layers, on hearing the/ noise of the accident, took
refuge in the completed part of the sewer, and made
their way down to the Fiver. Oity Surveyor Fuller
was near the trench and had to run for his life. Mr.'
Akin was looking over - -the boards, and estimated
that there were over twenty men at work. Jacobs
& Caswelre fore man estimates the number at fifteen.
Of these only five on six are • knoWn to" have been
saved. It le hoped thatthe aiding formed. a sort of
a roof that might protect them." '

Srs: Persons in other States are nottsware of the
difficulties attending the late contest in Pennsylva,
nia, nor of the decisive aharaeter of the victory gained
by the Un ion party, Composed iss it is of loyal men of
all political parties ; the only question asked being,
Are you willing to_sustain the Grovernment in this
righteous war to put down a eauseleescand atroursed
rebellion? The so•ealled Democratic party, having
the machinery of an organization which had usually
controlled our elections, and which last year had
elected glair candidates, at a State Convention held
it Harrisburg in the middle of June, nominated
George W. Woodward, a judge of the Supreme
Court, a man of excellent private character and un
questioned ability, and who had 'of late years been
removed from the turmoil of party politics. This
wan a formidable nomination, and his party - were
thus nearly two months ahead of their antagonists
in preparation for the easuing contest.
In August, the Union Convention at ,Pittaburg
nominated Governor Curtin,with barely two months
to prepare for the election in October. The only ad
vantage Governor Curtin had, was his faithful ad
ministration of the affairs of 'the State, his known
and devoted patriotism. his hearty and vigorous,
and able support of the National Government in the
prosecution of the war, his unwearied and untiring
devotion to ttee comfort of our soldiere and his noble
conduct in the two rebel raids into our borders, cul-
Min atiret' in a glorious victory at Gettysburg.
For ',ix weeks Governor Curtin traversed the en
tire "Stet°, addressing large collections of his fellow
.
eitisene, declaring openly his opinions on all, the
great qbestions of the day, discussing them frankly
and freely , ; and With peculiar abnegation of self,
asking their votes—not on his own mount, but for
the sake of that beloved Union for which he was
ready to lay down his life. His task was a hercu
lean, one, demanding great mental, Moral, and phy
sical exertion, and he maintained his vigor unabated
up to the very close, thing out, and leaving by the
wayside, successive bands of friends and speakers
who accompanied him. -
The nature of the campaign demanded this tho
rough ventilation of the issues involved, and there
was no man in theStete, within our knowledge, who
could have undergone the bodily and mental fatigue,
'and have displayed. the same talent as a publW
_speaker, And powers of persuasion, as Governor
Curtin did on every occasion. The election could
not have been gained wit-bout such a canvass, and
there wee,P9 one to make it but Governoe gartin,

It is clear, then, that Governor Curtin's was the
Only nomination that could have been made with
any fair prospect of succees. The policy of it is en
dorsed by the result.
Whilst giving this just credit due to Governor
Curtin, we cannot forget the services of our loyal

Mr. David Salomon is a Southerner, who came
from Mobile, Alabama, some five or six years ago,
with letters to one of our bankers from Mobile mer

agent of a Mobile house, and probably maintains
that connection at the present time. He stated, on

fact that no class complains less of wrong audio more

WALEUT• STREET THEATRE.—" Aspasia" was

for the last time. "Edith," a dramatization from
East Lynne, by Mr. Benjamin Edward Wolfe,' is

night was 'very slim, and thereby paid a great com

claims. Her season in this city has been one dead
failure, and it is to be hopid all future seasons will
continue to be so whilst she continues to represent in
so repulsive a manner such plays as 1 Avesta" and
"Camille." We believe that this representation is
conscientious, and that she thinks she doesjustice to
the heroines. Yet the heroines themselves are not
worth the representation of an actress of the first
order of talent, and they should never be represented
as they have been before the audiences which Philp:.

artist, Madame VestMH, we are authorized to an

this city on Monday evening next, at the new Chest

was translated and adapted from "La Trieuse des
Cartes," by Matilda Heron, and is entitled "Games.,
or the Jewish Mother." It is understood to be
from the pen of Mons. Mooquard, secretary to the
Emperor Napoleon. It vas first produced in Paris
three years ago, where it ran. for nine consecutive
months, to crowded house, which is a fair evidence
of its inherent Attractiveness. The incidental
music arranged for Vestvali, includes "The Mystic
Chant," ." The Mother's Prayer," "The Cradle
Song," and Rondo—. Silvia is ' Mine Again."
Madame Yestc-ali will be well supported, and should
be greeted with a hearty welcome in 'this city.

ONE OF THE WONDERS OF THE AGE.-
It is seldom indeed that an invention of any de
lei iPtion, in any age of the world, has stood the test
Of time and competition against a host of formidable
rivals with such unqualified triumph as has been
realized by the celebrated Grover and Baker Sew
ing Machine. The card published by this firm to-
day, on the first page of our paper, is a record of
victories that may well make them prOMI, and the
hundreds of thousands of persons who are using
tbein,•happy in the consciousness that in selecting
this instrument in preference to fill others they are
universally sustained by, the hestjudges in the land.
That almost any machine should receive an award
of some kind, by being generally exhibited wherever
competition is invited, is not surprising; but that
a tingle sewing machine should carry off the palm,
not only by the receipt of one, but more generally of
three first premiums, in a dozen States of the Union,
in a single season, is positively astounding. This
the Grover and Baker machine has achieved, hav
ing obtained the highest ' premiums for the best
family sewing machines, the best manufacturing
machines, and the best machine work, this year, in
the State fairs of New York, Vermont, lowa,
chigan, Indiana, Illinois, Kentucky, Pennsylvania,
and Ohio ; also, at the fairs held in Crittenden
county, Vermont, Champlain' Valley, Vermont,
Hampden county, Massachusetts, and in Franklin,
Queens, Washington, and Saratoga counties, New
York. In other words, the Grover and Baker ma
chine has taken the first premium wherever it has
been exhibited, without a single exception. They
can be seen in operation in all the various sizes and
styles, at their elegant warerooma in this city, No.
730 Chestnut street.
PERFECTION OF , THE PHOTOGRAPHIC
Alvr.—Mr. E. P: Hippie, our talented young artist
townsman, No. 820 Arch street, has devoted him
self studiously to the perfecting of the various
branches of Photography, with what success his
beautiful *admen gallery sufficiently attests. In
the carte de visite,. four quarter, -imperial,. and life
sizes, Mr. Hippie has attained the highest emi
nence, his pictures, plain, being equal in brilliancy
and softness to most pictures that have been expen
sively retouched by the artist. We would especial
' ly recommend our art4oving readers to visit Mr.
Hippie's handsome ground floor gallery and exa
mine his elegant specimens.. His operating gallery,
being also on the ground floor, is a decided conveni
ence to the public

GREAT OPENING OF LADIES' CLOAKS.—
We invite the attention of the ladies to the attrac
tive announcement in another column of the first
" special opening of Cloaks," by Messrs. Edwin Hall
& Co., No. 26 South Second street, to take place on
tomorrow (Thursday), the 22d inst. The house of
Messrs. E. Hall & Co. has long enjoyed a first:class
reputation for keeping one of the choicest stocks of
dry goods, for retailing, in this country, and they
have, for some years past, done considerable in the
manufacture and sale of fine Cloaks. Never, until
the present season, however, have they made this a
prominent specialty of their business, and we need
scarcely add that their having undertaken to cater
to the taste of our ladies in this branch of dress is a
sufficient guarantee that it will be well done. Among
the magnificent stock of cloaks to which they in
vite the attention of the ladies on Thursday, will be
found all the most desirable styles made from the
popular frosted beaver cloths, ehinchillys, moss
beavers, tricots, plain beavers, water-proof cloths,
scarlet and blue cloths, and other fashionable fabrics,
made up to suit all tastes, for ladies, misses, and
children.
REMOVAL OF GENERAL ROSECRANS.—
There was much anxiety manifested in our city yes
terday to learn the ground for the rumor that Gen.
Bosecrans had been superseded in the command of
the Army of the Cumberland. But the thing was
left in doubt. The fact, is, there are many other
things in doubt. Not so; however; as to the fact,
that the'best place in the United States to buy the-
beat quality of Coal, at the lowest prices, is at W.
W. Alter's, Ninth street, above Poplar. That is as
clearly an ascertained truism as that the earth re
volves on her axis.
HOW TO SAVE MONEY IN BUYING CLOTH
INO.—Go to headquarter& acnirs: c_. l : Somers &
Son, No. 625 Cbristnut street, under ,Tayne'S Ea%
im p ort t h '.';r Own goOds, do an immense retail aZ I .
wb r nesale trade, buy all their goods for cash, and..
sell them so mainly, employ only the best workmen
in having their clothing made up, and have only the
most skilful and fashionable cutters in their cus
tomer department. All these are advantages which
buyers ought not to overlook. Their present stock
is a model of completeness, and, for the reasons here
given, their prices are remarkably reasonable.
NEW CARTES DE VISITE FOR THE AL
sum, BY GIITEKIINST.—Mr. F. Gutekunst, the
popular Photographer, 704' and 706 Arch street, has
just added to hie great collection of fine eard.pie•
tures for the Album, those of Major G-eneral Hum
phries, chief of Gen. Meade'% staff; Brig. Generid
Gregg, U. - S. • Cavalry ; Rev. Dr. Sprague, Of 'Al
bany ; Mimi Annie E. Dlckinion, Gor. Curtin, and
many other diatinguiched personages, all in hie
usual excellent style.
RICH AND TASTEFUL CONFECTIONS.—
Mr. A. L. Vansant, Ninth and Chestnut streets, ha's
constantly on his counters perfectly fresh Confec
tions, being brought from his manufactory every
iitOrnieg, which, with the fact that he uses only the
best loaf sugars and the purest and choicest Ingredi
ents, ,accounts for his preparations being the finest
and most pothuiriZ,M Animism. libielegant store is a
universal centre of attraction to persons of refined
PBEZflitAl CIOTF.E. -lloßit 4 2, in
boxes, for family use, a beautiful article. Fresh
lot just received by Davis & Richards, Arch and
Tenth streetig.
MIESES' AND DIELDREIT'S FANCY HATS

Furs, have just been opened in choice variety, by

facture (including his inimitable Shirt cut by Mr.
JoIM P. Taggart), is now offered by Mr. George

the present day have commenced it. •

CARPETS LAID, and upholstering done at
the shortest notice. Persons who want work done
immediately can rely on W. Henry Patten, 1408
Chestnut street. No promises made which cannot

Trim LAWS OF FAsm - ox are as imperious
as the laWe of healthlthey must be observed. Who
of our lady readers, when tall bonnets are the style,
would be seen with one of season-before-last com
pressed oneal—and when the Fashion Books show;
us skirts and cloaks embroidered all over, who will
be without theml But it would be a cruel waste of
time to do all this intricate and delicate work by
hand when Grover cc, Baker's Machine, having for
the moment performed all the sewing to be done,
stands, with uplifted needle, ready to commence its
pleasant:task of throwing off the most beautiful em
broidery with an ease and nonchalance truly wonder
ful; and , either sewing or embroidery_ comes just as
easy and is performed just as quickly, one as the
other, on this celebrated Machine.
Err:aril FOR A LAWYER.—
,
" Here lies John Shaw,
Attorney at law,
And when he died, -
•The devil cried,
• 4 Give me your paw,
John Shaw,
Attorney at law.'„”
The above reminds us of another r-
"Here lies the body of Stainwiok Oakes, f.
Who bought his clothes of Granville Stokes,
Aad lived and died like other folks."
The "-Philadelphia Temple of Fashion" is at No.
609• Chestnut street.
THE AMOUNT OF MONET; paid into the•
Government for exemption has already reached up
wards of nine millions of dollars, and it is expected .
that there will yet be ten millions more, which sum;
la ving to be offered by the Government in the way
of, pay and bounty for the volunteers o£ the present
call for - three hundred thousand. This will enable.
cash volunteer this winter to• leave. a sum at home
large enough to keep his ,famy,for.a year, and rur
chase for himself a flute - Laos overcoat of Chanles
Stokes & Co., under the Continental, where therein
now a large assortment, at. low prices. ,
MODERN Ecoxomv,--One man gar, spin

have done in , the same time in 1169, when Ark wr , igy.,
took out his first pa'aut. One man can ; make ai
much flour in a dal now as a hundred 'and ray
could.a century ago,. One woman can now make as
much lace in a day as a hundred women could a
hundred years ago, and scarcely more first-class
wearing apparel was produced in the entire city of=
Philadelphia, sixty years ago, than is now prod, user,f
