The Pnssetig’ci* Railroad Fares. To the Editor oj The Press: Your remarks of Saturday last on the “Advance Of Price ” in our passenger cars aro so appropriate and well-timed that I venture to suggesta very sira- Clo plan by which bho “Board of Presidents” can e brought to their senses by touching them in the most sensitive part of their nature— their pockets. My residence is on Broad strbet, near Poplar; my place of business in the vicinity of Fourth and Chestnut streets, I walk down and up every day, and in my promenade down in the morning I notice . numbers ol healthy, hearty young men, whoso busi ness Is along Chestnut gircot,gettfngin the care run ning down the Ridge road, and as they are obliged to got out somewhere on Arch street, oi course must walk at least two squares; and I also observe Young ladies doing the same thing, Now, Mr. v lidltor, let those persons, niul all others who are N able to do So, walk m> and down : let thorn shun the oars for but ono week; their health will be promoted by it. while thoir pockets will be benefltted. TLet persons visiting the - “ Sanitary Fair” shun the cars. Let every one who has patronised them foot it! and in loss'than ten days the managers,of those “public conveniences” will see"the necessity of re scinding their uncalled-for imposition, adopted by their “ Board of Presidents,” for we must remember that it costs as much per day to run an empty car as it does a full one. , \Y.

It 13 formed of a suc cession of circular evergreen wreaths, tho liandiwork of the ladies of the village, the wreaths being adorned, with flowers tastefully interwoven, and each wreath having forits centre a gleaming star— the wreaths and stars corresponding to the number: of States of tho Union. The Keystone wreath, oc cupying its appropriate position, has for rts central ornament a star of the first magnitude, indicative of the appreciation of our citizens 6f the valor of the Pennsylvania Reserves—more especially, of Com pany K. 3d Regiment, enlisted here, and composed almost exclusively of residents of Holmesburg and its vicinity. The Reserves arrived at their homes on Thursday morning last, at 1 o’clock, after an ar duous service of three years. To say, as a commu nity, that the people of Holmesburg were excited,' tinder the circumstances, would be to employ a very mild term, for ■ parents were expecting their sons, wives --their, husbands, .Bisters;,.their, 'brothers, children their parents, and some ladles their nearest, not to: say dearest, friends. A re markable enthusiasm pervaded tho minds of all. .Young. America, especially, manifested a spirit of joyousness, perfectly uncontrollable, and when the ringing of the bells of the village announced the approach of the stalwart Captain Robt. Johnson and his.war-worn veterans, preceded by the Hoimesburg Brass Band, whickeseorted them , from the city proper, accompanied by a committee of our citizens, the Mystic Bodge of Odd-Fellows, and the members of the Liberty Fire -Jompany, with their gleaming torches, the enthusiasm was . Indescribable, having no parallel in any previous demonstration in Holmesburg; Passing under the beautiful arch, with its ever- I green .adornments, its multitude of. flags, 1 and fes toons of red, white, and blue, the keystone wreath display ing the words “ Welcome to the B r avb, ,j the company was received and welcomed in front of the Athemeum Hall, by the Rev. Mr. Bunker, ■whose name 13 characteristic of the man. Had he been bom on Bunker Hill the self-saerificingpa triotisin and unquestioned loyalty which lie has maniicsted in shouldering his musket and in minis trations to the wounded and dying on the battle field, could not be exceeded. In the interior of. the hall a bountiful collation hail been provided, to which our brave defenders did amplejustice; after which they retired to their respective homes, to seek repose after their fatiguing marches and the exeftement of their arrival GALA DAY J2T trHm^tXFlhLY.. Or teat SatoYday the member* of Captain John H. I>oi>?OTi J s Company f Q, Ist Regiment, Pennsyl vania Reserve?, proceeded from this city to Pheenix- Ttlle, (/‘heater county, where moat of them reside. Their reception was an extremely enthusiastic one : the town was gaily decorated with flags, wreaths, Jostoons, garlands, and devices expressive of the joyou3 feelings of the people in receiving back among them these war-worn veterans. - Upon alighting from the trains the company was received and welcomed by the Hov.-.T. E. Bradley, after -which a procession was formed under the marshnlship of Mr.* Joseph F. McCord, formerly first lieutenant of the company, who left thorn in consequence of disability, resulting from a wound received In front of Richmond in 1802. The pro cession, beaded by the Phccnixville brass band, dis coursing most excellent music, proceeded through the prineipalstreets of the borough to the Phoanix ville Hotel, where the soldiers were, addressed by the Bov. J. Pastorfieid in a strain or impassioned eloquence, replete with patriotism. The company will return to the city in a day or two to be mustered out of service; with their regiment, paid oif, and discharged. PRESEKTATIOIf OV MEDALS Of HOUOK.

OUTRAGEOUS CONDUCT ON THE CARS, The fare of six cents per passage in the passenger railroad cars went into effect yesterday, and every body was .surprised.. The conductors exacted the cent, and if not paid the passongor had to get out. Persons who cannot make tho ready change had better keep out of the cars, if they want to escape the abuse of the more ignorant and ungentlemanly of the conductors. Two cases of outrage were re ported .yesterday. A one-legged soldier offered a ien-cent note, the conductor asked for one cent, so that he could give a five-cent note in change.- The passenger had no cent; the oonductor-was inclined to be surly. The s.oldier did not feci disposed to take an insult.. After a wrangle, he. was thrust into the street—the conductor keeping the ten-ceht note. This happened at Tenth and Poplar streets. The soldier can be seen at the Police Telegraph Station. On car No. 14, of tho Arch and Fairmount Com pany, a gentleman with three ladies took passage to go to the Fair.

THE GUERILLA SMOKED OUT t HE SHOWS EIGHT—WILL HE STAND FIRE l The $l,OOO Challenge Against the World Accepted. Mr;David-Evans: Wehave thisday received, through our. agent, Mr. MV C. Sad 1 er, your\anicle, which ap- S eared in 27ie Press of the 6th inst., proposing a test of afes, under the form of a challenge : . Your proposi tion would certainly have the appearance Of fairness to the unsophisticated, while to those familiar with the tacticsand fiank movements of Sheet-Iron Safe makers its absurdity is at once apparent. ' . You try to shield Evans & Watson’s present make of Safes from harm. As the Safe you offerfor the test was, . as you indicate, purchased by the Cora Exchange Bank in ISSS (six years since), if it proved unequal to the tost, it would immediately be contended by Evans & Watson to be a different Safe from that now manufactured by them, aud their Safes would still be-in the market; On the other hand, the; Lillie Safe designated Was manufactured by Lewis Lillie, and if it was unequal to the test* Lewis Lillie & Son (the present manufacturers) •• could claim improvements, and still prove asforralrfable competitors as ever. Again, it is not to he ’supposed that tlie Corn Exchange Bank, or any other Bank, would as sent to the notoriety and disturbance which a Safe test would produce in tueir banking house.- We desire and claim an open, undisguised, and unmistakable test,and we are entirely prepared to meet the consequences. Now, Mr. Evans, bring out your best Evans & Watson Burglar-proof Bank Vault Safe,' and you can take for the test either of two Safes we have made and shipped to the Bank of the Northern Liberties .of your city. Both of these Safes were made before either of your pub lications reached usi With these conditions, we accept: your challenge in fulL As is well known, we very fre- S neatly make our Bank Burglar Safes four:(4) inches in lickness of metal, and we might justly insist on fur nishing such a Safe for. a test; Bat we deem Safes of the ordinary thickness (two inches), as they are placed in vaults, amplesecurity as against burglars, aiid conse quently we propose the above-named Safes for the. test, tlioy being two inches in thickness. - For years we have asserted what we shall maintain, that we-have the only true method of constructing a strictly burglar-proof Safe, and'by adding thickness of metal any desired security may be obtained at a small -additional expense,' We shall hold Evans & Watson accountable for the test, and if you have assumed a;po sition that eventuates in the antirelossto them of th»ir Thief-proof Safe business, and of discovering to bur glars a method by wbicb any Safe of their manufacture —vault door, or other securities made of-alternate lay ers of plate iron, hardened steel, or crystalled iron can be penetrated in a short time by any common black smith, or by the application of tlie first rudiments of a practical roechanicareducatlou, and thereby prove con clusively that all such securities are utterly unreliable, then they must tako the responsibility and reap the con sequences. / ' - . Being unwilling to fraternize with thieves, or to become their tutor, we 'do., not now publish our method of operation. In this respect, we leave you alone in your glory, trusting-you may receive all the honor# that may attach.to.so respectable a .profession. The Tioga County Bank robbery was not eftbcted from -** ono of Lillie’s make of Safes, as you state,as it was not manufactured by Lewis Lillie, Or L. Lillie & Son* It was, however, a Merchant No. 6 size Safe, manufac tured by the Worlds Safe Company, aud purchased by the Tioga County Bank, at second-hand, from a mer chant in Buffalo, N. Ys; in IS-54 or 1555. We will etate,: without fear of contradiction, that there never has been a robbery offered from a Lillie’s Patent Chilled and Wrought Iron Bauk Safe, although extensively used for the last twelve years, lfyou con sent to the test as defined by us, you will please advise either us or our agent, Sir.
