appear to be great on either side, though suspicion
is expressed in a later despatch, host New Orleans,
that the encounter was a reverse to the National
tierces.
MIME are now about four thousand rebels on
lateen's Island, guarded by less than four hundred
U. S. troops. Among the rebels are the notorious
Jeff Thompson and Major General Trimble, both
celebrated for adventurous Schemes. Since they
have been placed among the prisoners the guards
have bad considerable trouble in keeping order, and
have to be continually on the alert to acted and
frustrate plans of escape . Information led to the
belief that, simultaneously with the appearance of
a pirate gunboat, a general attack was to be made
by the rebel prisoners, the guards were to be over
,powered, the arsenal seized, Sandasky to be pillaged
and burned, and the rebels either to escape to Os,
nada or to strike into the interior of Ohio With
other drtigrs. Six hundred muskets were lately
found concealed in n tunnel near JohnsolVa
'which is additional evidence Of the contemplated
invasion and insurrection.

The Lake Erie Conspiracy.
When intelligence came, two weeks ago,
of the discovery of a plot on the part of the
Secessionists of Ohio to release the rebel
prisoners at Camp Chase and seize the ar
senal at Columbus, the Copperheads indig
nantly pronounced it "an Abolitionist elec
tioneering trick." Later developments have
shown conclusively the gratuitous character
of the assumption, and established beyond
question that there are as bitter and as
dangerous enemies of the Federal Govern
ment in the Northern cities as in the South
ern armies. Although the fact has never
been doubted by any person of intelligence,
it is just as well, perhaps, that it should have
such a startling exemplification now ; for
- while it can scarcely be fraught with dan
ger to any loyal interests, it will serve to
make our people more vigilant and jealous
in the future, and help them draw the
line of demarcation, which must some day
be drawn between the truly loyal and
the notoriously disloyal. In this view the
Lake Erie " sensation" may bear good fruit,
and at all events it cannot do much injury.
In• his despatch to the Mayor of Buffalo,
Secretary STANTON says : " There is reason
to believe that there is a plot on foot by
persons who have found an asylum in
Canada to invade the United motes and
destroy the city of Buffalo." There is some
thing singular in this, suggestive of a co
incidence worth referring to. When Senator
PUGH, the Copperhead candidate for Go
vernor of Ohio, declared that he would take
his stand upon the steps of the State capitol
after his election (!), and exclaim, " VAL
IANDIOHAM VALLANDIGNAN . VALLAN
DIGITAM. ! ! !" and that if VALLANDIGRAM
did not respond he would invade Canada at
the' head of two hundred •thousand • Ohio
militiamen to escort the martyred traitor
home to the gubernatorial chair, we laughed
at the Senator's puerile braggadocio. But
now we seer that menace attempted
to be carried out, with a change of
heroes, however, and a transposition of
the action of the plot. The friends
of VALLANDIOILAM, below Lake Erie,
could not invade Canada from the
United states to effect his xelease. There
fore, the friends of VALIANDIGHAM above
Lake Erie determined to invade the United
States from Canada, and effect the release
of some other rebel, equally notorious, and
the choice fell upon the guerilla chief,
Joisix MORGAN. We are not so mode
rate in our estimate of rebel audacity as
to suppose that the originators of this
movement would have remained satisfied
with the release of the rebel prisoners
on Johnson's Island. That would have
been merely the commencement of opera
tions—the opening of the campaign. Pos
sessed of the weapons in the Columbus Ar
senal, an impromptu rebel army might rea
dily' have been organized, and there are
thousands of :desperate men in Ohio who
would have hastened to join its ranks. Had
the conspiracy succeeded, who shall sayhow
it might have ended ? It has failed, as all
attempts to set at naught -the authority of
the Federal Government must fail. Never
theless, the prompt action of the British
authorities in the matter is most gratifying ;
since, had it not been for the timely expo
sure of their plot through their agency, some
of our most flourishing, cities and towns
might have been laid in ashes, and conster-
nation and alarm occasioned to the entire
Northern coniniunity. Forewarned, we are
forearmed. Mr. VALLANDIGITAM must en•
dure his chagrirkas best he may.
Rebel Troubles In Europe.
An excellent authority once declared that
" Woes cluster ; solitary woes are scarce,"
and the Rebels practically illustrate the truth
of the aphorism. First, their European loan,
suddenly declined to 30 per cent. discount, at
which unsatisfactory figure it has continued ;
then, m consequence of Lord RUSSELL per
tinaciously holding to the determination of
not accepting Mr. MASON as Ambassador
from Secessia, thatslave-driver was recalled,
leaving London to mourn his absence—of
course ; then, the same Lord Rustsrm. or
dered the Queen's " broad arrow" to be
marked on,,the two rebel rams at Liverpool,
just whorthey were nearly ready for sea ;
and, lastly, we have the simultaneous infor
mation that the pretty little Rebel plot in
Canada has failed, and that the Emperor
NAPOLEON has ordered the builder B s of steam
rams, in France, for the Rebels, to be cau
tioned against proceeding with their work.
It is only simple justice to Lord LYONS to
say that he has actually carried out Queen's
VlcroxrA'a neutrality proclamation, by
promptly communicating to our Govern
ment the information, telegraphed to him
)):y . Lord Almon, Viceroy of Canada, that
certain rebels and sympathizers in British
North America had formed a plot to burn
Buffalo and other of our lake cities, and
.deliver the rebel prisoners on Johnson's
Island. This purpose had already been
known, generally, to our Government, who
had initiated the necessary precautionary
measures, but the missive from the Canadian
authorities, frankly and immediately com
municated by Lord LYONS, shows true
loyalty on his part, and should be as frankly
accepted by us, as evidence of a sincere
desire of the British Government, after con
siderable hesitation, to act in perfect good
faith towards this country. Whatever dis
' trust England's previous vacillation May.
-have caused, she seems well disposed to act
lairly now, and we cheerfully acknowledge
the change.
. It is more difficult to give the Emperor of,
the French credit for loyalty and friendship.
A. year ago he showed the shallowness of
his proclaimed neutrality by urging Russia
and England to join him in giving moral, if
not material support, to the. South ` by vo
lunteering a negotiation which would place
./iorth and South as mere negotiators for
terms of peace. While the British Govern
ment, truth to say, consistently and conti
nuously gave the cold shoulder to gr. MA-
Km, his co-traitor Mr. SLIDELL hoh•ngbbed
With NAPOLEON, was his guest at Com
peigne, and his frequent visitor at Biaritz,
and, indeed, was apparently treated; if not
as ambassador, at least as a familiar friend.
It is announced that "the French Go
vernment has informed the United States
Minister to France, Mr. DAYTON, that the
authority previously granted ,for the con
struction of certain vessels of war, and
which were now proved to be building in
France for the Confederates, and for cer
tain cannon and munitions of war for their
armament, had been withdrawn, and the
parties engaged in the business had been
warned of the danger of prosecuting the
work."
Here, then, is an official admission that
NAroracox had formally given permission to
have rebel war-rams built in France, (albeit
he, also, had proclaimed neutrality, at the
commencement of our civil war,) had 'al
lowed these destructive vessels to be fitted
out and supplied, with " certain cannon and
munitions tor their armament," and only
after England• had set the example, had
checked the prosecution of this nefarious
breach of international law. Whatever we
owe England for her fair play, however
tardy, we are not much indebted to France
on a like account.
A MunicipallGrocery System.
In Common Council, on Thursday after
noon, the reporters inform us, " Dtr. HAR
PER offered a preamble and resolutions set
ting forth that, in consequence of the high
Price of coal, a committee should be appoint
ed by Councils to inquire into the expedi
ency of authorizing a company to heat the
city on the plan adopted for furnishing gas
by the Gas Company. The resolution was
adopted." The idea is a capital one. It
strikes us, however, that it is capable of
much wider application. For example, ta
king advantage of the pneumatic principle,
why might not the city establish a huge tank
at the centre square, with pipes extending
to every section of the city; through which
the entire community might be supplied
with milk, coffee, and other articles of like
nature, in constant use in every well-regu
lated household ? Thy milk suggestion is
especially good, as it would prevent the
milkmen from combining for purposes of
extortion. When not otherwise employed,
the pipes might be used as speaking tubes,
enabling families at opposite ends of the
city to communicate with each other with
out the slightest difficulty-! It would have
to be generally understood, however, that
every one should not speak at once, or con
fusion might possibly ensue If Councils
would devote more time to useful legislation
of this-kind, and less to topics of a purely
partisan complexion, they would receive
the thanks of a grateful community, and
Philadelphia would ere long become the
metropolis of the world
A. TELEGRAPH IN EVERY HOUSE.-A Cor
respondent of a city cotemporary proposes
a new and extended application of tele
graphing, so that its advantages may lite
rally be brought home to every individual
and family. He suggests that a central
office be established in every large, city, to
every section of which bundles of insulated
wires, laid under ground, shall radiate, and
that from these bundles single wires shall
extend to the offices or residences of those
desiring to employthem, 'there is r? Ties
ton whatever as to the feasibility of the en
terprise. In France they have invented a
i 4 DanteiegraPh," which telegraphs music,
engravings, photographs—in fact, almost .
everything except a brick house, and after
while this will also be accomplished, we
presume. So that what this correspondent
proposes is altogether practicable. The
only question for consideration is, will it
pay ? We blush at the thought that in en
tertaining a proposition so novel, so useful,
and so convenient, the sole consideration
should be a sordid one. Perhaps there may
bein the city a number of gentlemen of suf
ficient public spirit to take hold of the pro
ject and carry it out, theatrically, " regard
less of expense." The speediest way, how
ever, to secure the establishment of the new
"House Telegraph" is to demonstrate that
it will," pay," and capital in plenty will be
found to second the motion.

Public. Entertainments.
THE GERMAN Ornma.—The performance of " Stra
della," yesterday night, was largely and finely at
tended, and the audience was quite an entertain
ment in itself. Popular as this opera must meows-
Illy be, it was rendered a much greater success than
heretofore; and, as with almost every work which
the present company have given, the public has yin
tually asked its repetition. Every one must have
fully enjoyed Flotow's versatile music, which admi
rably expresses the romantic story of "Stradella,"
an opera which, like the composer's "Martha,"
abounds in vivacious character, charming sentiment,
artistically wrought situations, and is, altogether, a
carnival of music and scenery. This opera, so chi
valrous to love and music, well deserves its brilliant
success. Keeping immortal the romance of another
fine musician, was, doubtless, grateful work to the
composer, who, at the same time, confirmed his
own immortality. We are glad to record that it was
sung so well throughout. Madame „Tohannsen'a
rdle was rendered with distinguished spirit and
• ability. Kerr Himmer's Stradella, occasionally af
fected in acting, was generally an artistic perform
ance. Habelman gave new proof of hie accomplish-.
ment as actor and singer , in the comedy part of a
Brigand. The exqnisitely ' characteristic drinking
song, sung by Eabelmann and Graff in the second
act, was one of the chief successes of the evening.
Orchestra and chorus were in prime humor.
To-night " Fidelio” will be sung at the special
request of a number of influential citizens, and to
the special gratification of hundreds who appreciate
the noblest music. It will be given entirely for the
benefit of the Special Relief Society for the tamale's
of soldiers, a branch of the Sanitary Commission;
and no one will enjoy the performance of the Opera
lean, for the knowledge of the fact that the profits
are to be given to so noble a purpose. The Academy
will be doubtless filled by one of the most brilliant
audiences of the season.
"A Night in sarenada" will be Bung at the matt.
nee this afternoon.
NEW CHESTNUT•STEEET THEATER.---" 111.0 deli"
Will be presented this evening, positively for the last
time, and -we are glad to know that Miss Avonis
Jones will, during the rest of her engagement, aban
don the classical drama; not because it wants in
terest, nor because her performance of "_.Medea." is
not admirable, full of passion, and an intellectual
study, but because we think the abilities of Miss
Avoids Jones can find a wider and more various op•
portunity, and that the modern drama is better
-liked, and more fully understood by the public. On
Monday "Aurora Floyd" will be played, and we
have no doubt that Miss Jones will personate the
heroine with power and beauty, and that hundreds
who could not find any attraction in the Greek tra
gedy will be delighted with the modern sensational
drama. It will be in the London version of " Au
rora Floyd" that Miss Jones will appear; the
heroine was her original character, performed for
sixty consecutive nights, with great success. We
shall expect a new development of the character
from this beautiful and accomplished artist.
WALNUT• STREET THEATER.—The wonderful
Arabs, Who build pyramids only less astonishing
than those of Egypt, and unite strength and beauty
in all their daring performances, will give a matinee
this afternoon, for the satisfaction of children and
families. A popular farce will also be presented.
NATIONAL HAM—The matinee at the National
Hall to-day will be devoted mainly to the interests
of ladies and children, and Will certainly display to
very great advantage the wonders of the new circus
troupe. There is no class which more fully appre
ciates these than the children. The immense houses
which have hitherto greeted the circus troupe will
be renewed on this afternoon's occasion..

vessel not being attached to a squadron at the time
of the capture, and his share being three-twentieths
of the half awarded to the captors. All the officers
on this vessel belonged to the volunteer service, and
their several shares amount to a handsome sum.
The sailors, too, 'Some in for a small - fortune for
themselvez—the seamen getting $1,736.80 each, ordi
nary seamen 1,350.88, and the landsmen $1,157.91.
The Britannia and Victory were captured by Com
mander R. H. Wins/La', of the Santiago de Cuba,
the former yielding the sum of $169,695.72 and the
latter $299,998.46, making $469,694 17—the captures
being made within the space of a week. ' It will be
noticed in this ease that, while the Officers get
liberal Shares, the seamen each receive $897 57,
ordinary seamen $69912, and Landman $598.40.
Another steamer was captured about the same

altogether a very handsome aunt. The tables in
these oases are given below.
The navy is in immediate want of seamen, anti
with suuh chances for fortunes it is amazing that

The Recent Captures oft" North Carolina.
Admiral Lau has communicated to the Navy De
partment the partieulars relating to the resent cap•
tures off North Carolina coast, from which it af.
pears that the cargo of the R. E. Lee consists of
214 large oases ali.d bales of shoes and blankets,
some of the bales weighing two tons; 160 cases of
Austrian rifles, 250 bags of saltpetre, 61 barrels of
salt provisions, pig lead, &c. Of 62 officers and
crew, only 15 were natives of tha United States.
Among the passengers were O. E. STEWART, Bel
gian consul, and Hon..toz H. WEBBER and H. W.
Roorru, lieutenants of the Royal artillery. There
were no ship papers.
The cargo Of the Ella and Annie consists of 480
Sacks of salt, 500 sacks of saltpetre, 281 cases of
Austrian rifles, 500 barrels of beef, and 42 oases of
paper.. No ship papers. Of 38 on board, only one
was a native of the United States. The cargo of
the Cornubia consists of arms, saltpetre and lead.
She was solely owned by JAMES A. SSDDON, of
Riobatmd. A quantity of official despatches, mail
matter, and pzlyat e and public papers, some of them
of considerable interest Ana . ZPll‘te, were picked up
in the surf by the boats of the Nipholl, hating open
brown overboard, or dropped by the enemy.
The official despatches say that, about 2 o'clock A.
M. on November Bth, the blockading vessels were
warned, by a signal fiola the James Adger, of the
presence of a blockade-runaer, and While the Adger
pursued the
_strange craft along the beach, the
Niphon stood in to cut off the chase.
Escape being impossible, the pursued vessel was
run on shore a half hotir after, the chase began.
A half an hour later, the Junes Adger, assisted
by the Niphon, succeeded in getting her off unin
jut ed.
The captured vessel proved to be the Cornubia,
one of the most successful of the blockade-runners.
She is owned solely by Jamas A. SEDDON, the rebel
Secretary of War.
Some idea of the importance of this capture may
be formed from the statement of her master to the
commander of the James Adger, that- though the
vessel to small, his Government could have better
afforded to lose any other vessel.
Acting Master Bunow, of the Niphon, reports that
he sent in boats to capture those of. the crew of the
Cornubla who were on the beach, and succeeded.
The next - morning several men appeared on the
shore, making signals to be taken off. Before the
boat could reach them they were taken prisoners by
a party of soldiers, on whom the Niphon at once
opened fire, killing and wounding several on their
retreat.
Soon after eight men, whom were making signals
on the shore, were taken oft' by the Niphon's boats.
The Robert E. Lee was discovered on the morning
of the 9th instant by •the James Adger, and chase
was given, which resulted in the capture of the
vessel at half past seven o'clock on Saturday.
The R. E.• Lee was from Bermuda, and left that
port five hours after the Cornubia.
The Hospitals.
Surgeon General HAMMOND has been ordered to
Nashville, Tenn., on a tour of inspection through

According to an official report in the Surgeon Ge•

BUFFALO, Nov. 13.—The Cleveland Lewler of yes
terday says a deepatch had been received between
twelve and one o'clock from officers at Johnson's
Island, asking that a regiment be sent to Johnson's
Island immediately.
In response to this request, 350 men of the 12th
Ohio Cavalry were sent there this morning.
It is reported here (at Buffalo) that the captain of
a propeller from Sandusky reports that a tunnel
, had been discovered extending from the prisoners'
quarters on Johnson'e Island to some works save
ral hundred feet distant; also, that 100 muskets,
which bad undoubtedly been brought from Canada,
were found in the tunnel.
The plot was to seize the steamer Michigan and
two of the New. York. Central propellers, and make
a raid on the shipping and the city of Buffalo.
Gunvarann, Nov. 13.—Lieutenant Harris, com

The Gazette's special despatch from Columbus says
that a large force of infantry and two battalions of
artillery were sent there yesterday.
Gen. Cox left Columbus for Sandusky on a special
train last night.
SANDUSKY, Nov; 13,—EFerything is quiet here
and in this vicinity.
There is very little excitement in the city. Gen.
Cox and staff passed to the island this morning.
Everything is being put in readiness for the rebels,
and, with troops here and on the way to Johnson's
Island and Sandusky, it will be considered safe
beyond doubt.
Batteries are posted so as to fully command the
entrance to the harbor, and would sink any vessel
attempting to enter our bay.
The steamer. Michigan is of Johnson's Island
ready for action.
All reports about an attempt to escape by the
rebel prisoners is simply false.
There was no indication of any such intentions
up to the present time.
TROIT, Nov. 13.—An armed steamer, which was
sent out by the authorities to reconnoitre the sus

Cam°, Nov. 13.—The Memphis Bulletin, of the
11th, gives the paiticulars Of the burning of the
steamer Allen Collier.
The steamer was lying twenty-flue miles above the
mouth of the White river, and within 500 yards of
the gunboat Eastport, which was covering her land
ing when the guerillas attacked her.
Capt. Bartholomew, the commander of the gun
boat, was on board the Collier at the time, and
was captured with the captain and crew of that
steamer.
The gunboat would have shelled the guerillas, but
they protected themselves with the captain and crew
whom they had captured.
After setting fire to the boat, they marched the
prisoners three miles into the country, when they
liberated the captain and orew of the Collier, but re
ained Capt. Bartholomew.
The number of prisoners of war now in the mill-
tarp prisons here has increased to nearly 4,000.
They cannot really be called prisoners of war, be•
log deserters from the rebel army, some of whom
have been around in the Woods for fifteen month's,
awaiting an opportunity to come into our lines and
take the oath of allegiance, for which purpoee they
will be Bent to St. I,ouis.

REBELS STILL ON THIS SIDE OF
THE RAPIDAN
GENERAL KILPATRICK'S CAMP SHELLED
WASHINGTON, Nov. 12.—Detachments of our in
fantry and cavalry this morning handsomely
thrashed Stuart's cavalry, near Mitchell's Station,
three miles southwest of Culpeper. The rest of the
army was quiet ; but it is the quiet thatprecedes the
storm. We now hold all the ground in Culpeper
county that we held six weeks ago.
Among the corrections of chronic errors, made by
our advance beyond the Rapidan, is the belief in the
fable that Lee's army - is always starving, and des
tined soon to die of inanition. However hungry
Richmond may be, his soldiers are well fed. Through
the new winter camps on the south side of the Rap
pahannock, our advance guard was interested to
see scattered about num< rears empty tin cans, once
filled with prepared meats and vegetables, and in
terested to find on them Baltimore and New York
labels. But it is true that Lee's troops are hard up
for shoes and clothing. Not an old brogan, nor a
trouser leg, nor coat sleeve, could be found among
the refuse of the many camps. Cloth and leather
are economized.
Lee's purpose to winter between the Ranpahan
-nock and the Rapidan is further proven by their
preservation of the railroad connecting the two
rivers, but the rebels, on their retreat across the
Rapidan, destroyed the railroad bridge which spans
that stream.—Times;
WASHINGTON, Nov. 13.—Information from the
Army of the Potomac states that officers from the

It thus appears that some of the enemy are still
on this side of the Rapidan.
There is a great scarcity of tobacco and other ne
dessary articles for the soldiers, in consequence of
the extended prohibition against sutlers.

NEW YORK, Nov. 13.—The steamer Yazoo, from
New Orleans, with dates to the 4th instant, has ar
rived.
,A collision occurred 'on the 'Opelousas Railroad
between two trains, one of which had stopped owing
to a defective engine ; the other train ran into it,
killing from twelve to sixteen of the 97th Illinois,
and wounding nearly seventy of the same regiment,
all of whom were on the moving train. The other
train had the 64th Illinois xin board, only two of
whom and one rebel prisoner were injured.
The accident was occasioned by the culpable
neglect of the conductor in not setting the proper
signals;
Memphis advices of-the 29th ult., received at New
Orleans, state that the river was rising, and that
five million bushels of coal were ready to be sent

The New Orleans Era, of the 4th inst., states that
the rebels attacked General Washburne's advance
on the 3d, driving it in towards the main body. But
they were soon checked, and in turn attacked and
pursued, our force capturing some two hundred
prisoners. We lost loins forty killed, and the rebels
one hundred killed,

reported.

ton, where she remained leaking and . half full of
water ' and otherwise considerably damaged.
In London. a :railway engtne-ddpoit had been
blown down, and three or four lives were lost.
Among the new companies which bad been an
nounced, is the National Steam Navigation Com.
pany of London and Liverpool, with a capital of
two millions sterling. The object is to accelerate
the substitution of powerful screw steamers for
sailing vessels in American and other trades. The
first step will be to establish lines from - Liverpool
and LOndon. to New York of steamers of large size
and capacity, for freight and passengers. Three new
steamers have been provisionally purchased, and
contracts made for others of three thousand live
hundred tons each.
- The steamer Braganza, from Liverpool at Lisbon,
was boarded in the Bay of Biscay by the privateer
Georgia, and asked for newspapers and shipping in
telligence.
The Mersey rants remained in the possession of
armed marines., The work on them had been sus
pended. Two gunboats also kept watch overbaird's
yard.
The London Times editorially criticises the iron
clad navies of England, France, and America, and
drawn the conclusion that England is not in arrear
of the age, and if she has anything to learn it is only
in matters of detail.
W. F. Lindsay and George L. Sanders again
figure in the London Times as combatants of the
doctrines advanced by the Times' correspondent
ac Historicus.,,
Mr. Lindsay elaborately attempts to prove that
England favors the North at the expense of the
South, and maintains that if the same measure of
justice is not meted out to both belligerents, the
professions of impartial neutrality by England are
mere empty word !
"Historicus" responds to Mr. Lindsay, and, in
answer to one of his inquiries as to "how he (His
toricus) should vote when the claims against Eng
land for the depredations by the Alabama were
brought before Parliament," promises that, by the
time that question is put from the.Speaker'a chair,
" Mr. Lindsay will. certainly be the father of the
House."
Other questions of Mr. Lindsay are also answer
ed, ,and 'Rigorism' " points out that no act of
Parliament forbids English merchants from manu
facturing cannon for the belligerents ; but as to
equipping .vessels of war, there is an act expreasly
forbidding it.
The .bankruptcy of Z. C. Pearson was under in

in regard to blockade running. Mr. Pearson claims
over ..£137,000 from the Federal Government for
illegal captures, and £93,000 from the Oonfederate
Government for their refusal to fulfil their contract.
The Board of Trade returns for September show
an increase in exports of 28 per cent. over the corre
sponding month of last year, and the figures thus
far for the whole year indicate that it will be a year
of the greatest commercial prosperity that England
has yet attained.

A. third note from Earl Russell, on the Holstein

& Baxna..—We are apt, in this age, to judge of men
end things not so much by what they are tie by what
they can accomplish, This it practically the test to
which every while man is , put, and so thoroughly is
the rule observed that, almost from the instant a
pnbile servant, either in military or ctsil life, fails
to maintain the standard popularly assigned to him,
he goes under A cloud. The same iron rule, of mar
mating merit by reselts, is applied with equal rigor
to all manner of inventions, and that which• con
quers in the laborsaving race is invariably !moored
with a golden (Or greenback) crown of popular ale
proval. We have, in this plain statement, the true
secret of the unparalleled' populariey of the
known Grover & Baker hewing Machine, sold ot
their elegant wareroome, inthikelt3r, No. 730 Chest...
11M - street Its crown of glory is, that while, for all
kinds of Sewing, it is fully equal, in all respects, to
any and ail other m achines combined, it heaths merit
of performing certain ornamental and most desirable
work, that nonthermach fne can dot Prominent among
the latter Merits of the Grover & Baker Machine is
the fact that it executes with ease and accuracy the
most elegene embroidery, an advantage whichl we
u.nderstand, has given this machine the supremacy
over all others in the manufacture of Lulls&
Cloaks, and certain other delicate and ornamental
classes of work. It will be borne in mind by our
readers that, while. the Grover & Baker Company
manufacture and sell machines of both the "lock"'
and the e! Grover & Baker) , stitch, it is the latter
mainly which gives their instruments so decided a
preeminence over all competitor& This stitch, we
wish distinctly te. Impress upon the minds of our
reedere, is the only one formed from two ordinary
spools, and with eut Winding from the spool into a
shuttle from three to five times for the under. thread.
A seam thus formed is more elastic than any other
made on a sewing machine, and is, consequently,
invaluable in all geed& that are to be 'waned and
strttched under the iron. Besidee these and a snore
of other advantages that we mightemumerate, the
Grover & Baker Machine is so simple that an intel
ligent child of ten years can readily learn to operate
and keep Bin order,.

pziolos Thru' SeLoolf.—Besides taking the lead
in her,inarket-houtes,. Academy of Music, atty rail
ways, and handsome ladies, Philadelphia justly
boasts the beet Iteecurant. We allude to the
splendid Dining Saloon of Mr. S. W. Price, south
west corner of Fourth and Chestnut. Proms. mo
cleat beginning, Mr. Price has advanced, step by
step,rin the way of popularity, and, we dare say, in
the road• to fortune, until now he presents an eats
blishment at which the President and suite, should
he visit Philadelphia, could dine with as mush gusto
as at any hotel or said in Europe or America. Mr.
Price has very wisely struck out for himself a new
and , original course, namely, of consulting the coin
fort and wishes of the public more than anppecuni
ary interest of his own q nevertheless, on the-prin
ciple that judicious enterprise is always certain to
meet a profitable recognition, he is now doing what
may be styled a splendid business. Ms large, airy
rooms, neatly and commodiously furnished, are
filled for several hours every day with the first gee
tlemen of our city, who confess, in a very practical
way, that dining at Price's is a luxury. Among the
latter, many make it a. point to entertain strangers
visiting the city at these saloons, and the opinionis
frequently expressed by connoisseurs at dining, who
have travelled all over the woilci, that the cuisine,
larder, wine vault, cookery, and mode of serving
dishes at Pride's are superior to anything in their
experience. -By the way, we see Mrr. Price's name
quoted now quite frequently as furnishing the moat
stylish private and public banquets. The business
management of these saloons partakes of the regu
larity of clock:work, and the waiters are uniformly
polite, intelligent, and thoroughly familiar with
their duties.

chine," which appeared in the papers of this city a
week ago, has had the effect of crowding their ele
gant new wareroome, No. 704 Chestnut street, with
customers to overflowing, and what must be exceed.
ingly gratifying to the efficient management of Phi
ladelphia department of thin immense concern, the
sales of the various priced instruments during the
present week have been unbounded—literally so, as
in some instances orders for a greater number of cer
tain styles of their machines were received than
they were able to supply. Yesterday, from the best
data we can command, this house sold a larger num
ber of sewing machines than any other three esta
blishments together have ever
sold in a single day
since the commencement of the sewing machine bu
siness. Throughout the day their elegant Sales
rooms, Instruction and Workrooms, were filled
with customers. We also discover that more than
twenty ladies are now employed constantly in one
of their rooms on fine family sewing, a feature
which has been recently introduced by this firm, and
which is already being appreciated by the public as
a great convenience. We would again remind our
citizens and the public in general, that the place to
buy the best sewing machine in the world it at 704
Chestnut street, two doors above Seventh, where
the waxen lady, in her brilliant new suit of silk, is
dellietting hundreds of pedestrians every hour in the
day, by her apparently intelligent and agile move.
meats.
THE NEW " FEonExcE" SEWING MA
CHINE EMPORIUM— We advise all our readers who
have not done so, to visit the beautiful new Sewing-
Machine palace which has recently been opened at
No. 630 Chestnut street, for the saleof the celebrated
"Florence" Sewing Machine. The manifest supe
riority of the "Florence" over all other Sewing
Machines in use, is so palpable that many of our
citizens, we find, are selling the machines they have
had heretofore at a discount, and introducing these is
their families instead: It Is the - only machine that
has ever been invented tb at ie equally adapted for the
heaviest and lightest sewing that a family ever re
qire a. Each one of these admirable machines is
supplied with "Barnum's Self-Sewer," which guides
the work itself, thus avoiding the strain on the eyes,
bent posture, close application, and fatiguing care
heretofore necessary on a large proportion of work
done on Sewing Machines. This appendage is of in
calculable value, especially to inexperienced opera
tors.
POTULA.B. CLOTHING HOUSE.--Messrs. C.
Somers & Son, No. 625 Chestnut street, under
Jayne's Hall, have made for themselves a reputation
for selling the beat-made, best-fitting, most stylish,
and most fashionable clothing produced in this coun
try, and their rush of customers doling the past
week shows the value of such a reputation. Messrs.
Somers & Son import the major part of their own
goods, display excellent taste, and hence give more
value for the money than any other clotbing,house
in town. Give them a call on our recommendation.
" A BREATH OF FP.ES)I AlR."—This iB
the title of one of the finest works of art that have
ever been produced in Philadelphia, and of which
we shall have more to say at an early day. It is
from the pencil of Mr. Wenderoth, (of the eminent
firm of Wenderoth & Tay.or, Photographers, Nos.
912, 914, and 916 Chestnut street,) and exhibits in a
bolder light the wonders of. the Photographic art,
combined with the painter's skill and science, than
any work of the kind that we have ever examined.
Hundreds of visitors are now daily corroborating
this opinion in examining the magnificent picture
referred to at their rooms.
GREAT STOCK OF CONFECTIONS.—Messrs.
E. G. Whitman &Co.; No. 310 Chestnut street, have
this season excelled themselves in the extent and
variety of their magnificent stock of fine Confec
tions. These gentlemen deserve great credit for
having been the first in Philadelphia to manufacture
really healthful and delicious Confections. They
use only the finest materials in manufacturing, are
courteous and polite to all who call, and being the
most extensive manufacturers in this city, they are
enabled to sell atimoderate prices. Result : Their
store is crowded six days in the week, from morn.
ing till night.
LADIES WILL FIND the largest and most
elegant assortment of Bonnets in this city at Wood
& Cary's, N 0.726 Chestnut street.
COAL.—The production of coal this year
is likely to reach 9,000,000 of tons, a million more
than was ever before brought to market in one year,
and a million and a half in excess of the amount
obtained in 1862. The high prices that now prevail
for the article are, in a measure, inexplicable, but
this is certain, that if it were not for the praise
worthy efforts of rdr. W. W. Alter. Ninth street,
above Poplar, to keep the prices down, they
-would
range much higher than even the highest present
quotations.
SPLENDID STOCK OF GENTLEMEN'S SCARFS.
—Mr. George Grant, proprietor of the model Gen
tlemen's Furnishing Store, No. Gin Chestnut street,

Tun ART OF PRINTING.—The number of
books printed since the invention of the art, in 1440,
to the end of the year 1822, was estimated by Peig
not at 3,681,960 ; and counting an average of three
volumes to each book, and 300 copies to each edition,
the aggregate of printed volumes was estimated by
him to be 3,313;764,000. It would bediffloult to make
an estimate of the number of newspapers published
during the same period ; but it is at least certain
that none of the printed sheets contained any bet

Two gents in drinking passed the night,

Says Mr. Twiggs, "That Moon looks bright.

You're muddled with hard drinking.
"I know it is the Moon," Twiggs cried:
"But let that other gent decide,

To him the disputants applied
The problem to unravel.
He at the orb some moments gazed,
" Sun—Moon." he muttered, much amazed;

HAVE YOU A COUGH?—THEN USE trATNE'S
EXPECTORAET. Do not, allosv-your -cold to take its
own course. Two-thirds of the victims of consuniptionl
owe their afflictions to the fatal mistake of "'waiting for
a cough to get well of itself. Do not fall into this error,
but avail yourself at once of a remedy which twenty- five
Yeats' experience has demonstrated is certain to produce
a speedy cure.
RAVE YOU ASTHMA OR PRTHISIS7
Then nee JAY NE'S EXPECTORANT, which will over- ,
come the spasmodic Contraction of the wind tribes, and
cause them to eject the mucus or matter which clogs .
them np, and, by an easy and free expectoration, re
move all difficulty of breathing.
HAVE YOU BRONCHITIS?
Then use JAYNE'S EXPECTORANT. This wide
spread disease, which may be generally described as an
inflammation of the fine skin which lines the inside of the
wind tubes or air vessels, spreading through every part
of the lungs, is often mistaken for Consumption. The
Expectorant subdues this inflammation, relieves the at
tending cough, pain, and difficulty of breathing, and, if
the case is not of too long standing, will certainly pro
duce a cure.
HAVE YOU CONSUMPTION?
Then use JAYNE'S EXPECTORANT. It cleanses the
lunge from all irritating matters, while, at the same time,
it heals and invigorates them. Of all the remedies
which have been offered the public for this dread disease,
none have stood the test of time, or maintained so uni
versal a poonlarity as this Expectorant. Thousands
who have been given up by their physicians as Incura
ble have been restored to perfect health by its use, and
their testimony must carry conviction to all who read it.
HUNS YOU PLEURISY?
Then use JAYNE'S EXPECTORANT. By taking two
or three large doses in the early stages of the disease, in
quick succession, and covering up warmly in bed, this
preparation acts as a sudorific or sweating medicine, and
subdues then iflamm ation at the outset
HAVE YOU WHOOPING COUGH?
Then nee JAYNE'S EXPECTORANT. There is no re
medy which so Effectually overcomes this disease as the
X xpectorant. What parent can witness the sufferings of
her children from this distressing complaint without
tiding all in her power for their relief? What medicine
so pleasant to the taste, or so certain to produce imme
diate benefit? Give it a trial, then, and let it prove its
efficacy.
RAVE YOU CROUP?
Then Ilse JAYNE'S EXPECTORANT. Children are
subject to no disease more sudden in its attacks, or,in. the
absence of prompt relief, none more fatal in its results
than Croup. Parents, therefore, should keep at hand a
remedy sure and thorough. Such a remedy may be
found in the fixpectorant, and every careful mother will
keep a supply by her.
SATRE'S EXPECTORANT
Is a standard medicine. For thirty years is has been be
fore the public, and during lisle period its curative powers
hard been testified to by all classes of people in all
quarters of the world. Physic'ans, clergymen, lawyers,
merchants, and mechanics have experienced its remedial
effects, and have famished us with their testimony. and
it may be found at length in our Almanac. To their
convincing certificates we would refer the doubting.

Whereas, We have heard with unfeigned regret of the
endues death of our mach-respected fellow-workman.
JOSEPH E. ABBOTT, late sergeant of Company K. 101st
Regiment Penneylvania Volunteere, of disease mietracted
while serving with his regiment in North Carolina.
Noble. generous, and brave, he had endeared himself to
a large circle of acquaintances, who recognized and ap
preciated all the noble attributes of character which h.
possessed, while his devotion to his country in time of
gfeatest need stamped him the pure and unselfish pa
triot : Therefore, be it
_Resolved, That though we do not question the wisdom
that removed him from oar midst, yet we cannot let the
occasion pass without expressing oar regret that the
country has lost a brave soldier, his children .a kind and
affectionate father, and we a warm and congenial com
panion.
Resolved, That we tender our kindest sympathy with
the little ones made orphan by this sad and sudden be
reavement.
