TM.Vrii or AN Efifitisii Itevonsten.—Mr, Wil
liain Johnston Fox, tho son of a poor Norwich wear- •
or, but himself an eloquent speaker, a well-knuren
English reformer, a companion of Bright and Cob
den, and for some time a member of Parliament,
tiled recently in England; in Ids seventy-eighth year:
Ills parents belonged to a body of nonconformists in
Norwich, and their boy, who early showed signs of
genius, was sent by the church to a small gongrega-
Lentil College to be educated for the tninisfty. After
leaving college be entered the ministry, brit soon af
ter found himself unable to conform oven to the non-
Conformists, and took up an independent position as
lecturer in a chapel in Finsbury, London. Ilerehis
ifloquenee gained him ninny distinguished hearers. •
Ills oratory, In preaching, was devoted to mak
ing hits, and, after passing through the various
etuges of Unitnrianism,ho became a sort of deistical
preacher on politics.
/1 shilling was Charged fOr admission to hI9
chapel, the pulpit was a railed platform on which a
little library was established nails largo armchair,
plated for the spenker during the performances.
"While preaching In Finsbury he took au active
part in political offairs, 'wrote articles in loading
political journals, edited a megazine which he es
and helped to establish the Westminster
Yevietv, In which It is said he wrote the first article
of the first number.
His " nervente and cultivated eloquence," as the
Examiner characterizes it, helped to carry the groat
•freatraile movement In Englund. The Spectator de
.ecribee- him on the rostrum with Messrs. Bright
and Cobden:. •
"It was a great night when Mr. Cobden, Mr.
Bright, mid Mr. Fox followed each other on that
stage; Mr. Cobden raising the, self-osteem of the
audience by clialcing oven boys and women feel in

fancy 01 the multitude by his glittering , rhetoric, .
and its laughter by a humor which just. hit the level
of their taste."
when ho entered Parliament he grew quiet, and
old ay,e appears to have singularly softened and
cleared his spirit. Tip Spectator says of his later
days:
' . ..ludgiiig by his latest speeches and writings,
we believe Mr. Fox learned at last to eee some
thing of the • vanity of eloquence, to get a glimpse
of that true eloquence which, as Pascal says,
mocks at eloquence,' to clean the misleading rub-

"Ile was one of the very shortest, and probably
for his height one of the stoutest of men. But when

to listen long without being charmed."
Be was a notable man in his time, one of a small
band of Englishmen who succeeded, after long agi
tation, in introducing in Great Britain correct ideas
of political economy and liberty.
A MORMON ELDER'S OPERATIONS.—The Deseret
News of it dae contains a acor
the career ofrecent
One Brother Gibson,long
who ha u l'nen
making a good thing out of aformonism. seems
that Gibson arrived' in titali, on his way to the Ma-
lay Islands, in the fell of '45. In course of time he
sought baptism, and MIS soon Elder Gibson. lie
went down to the Pacific coast. lectured at San
Francisco, rind was accused of being a Mormon,
but denied it. Finally he reached the Sandwich
Islands, and soon made his presence felt among the
natives, and was rapidly making a "good thing" out
of them, when a committee front Utah went on to in
vestigate the Elder. They found him livingin clover,
possossiog acres of land by thousands, his sheep by
the same figures, and his horses and cattle, geese
and turkeys, in droves. But more than 'all this, ho
dispensed lilormon of anti titles like groceries
from a country store. Ile had ordained heists of
Kamehatnehres subjects as apostles, high priests,
"seventies," elders and everything else, and even
the women receivedfrom his hands the honors of
priesteertis and other titles. Our Mormon delega
tion visited him and remonstrated with him, bnt
he couldn't see it, and suggested to them the
propriety of a speedy departure. A few
hints of lynch law by the newly-converted na
tives accelerated their departure. Tho. News,
consoling the brethren, say's it is not the first time in
the history of this movement that "we have known
of dark days in distant missions ; but we need not
tell the saints that those days have, gone past for;
ever. It is with much satisfaction that we can look
back upon the pact, and contemplate through what
the Church has passed and see to-day the certain
overthrow Of evil. Men in their weakness, their
folly, and their pride might ton, fifteen, twenty, or
more years ago, travel in forbidden paths, and ,for
while, with communities impunity, cover ' ,their
traoks ; but, to.clay, a tithe of such nonsense or vil
lainy' would find them out and send them to their
legitimate place quicker than they ever dreamed of,
and all rejoice that it is gb now and Cannot be re
peated."
A TERRIFIC SWARM 07 LOCLISTS.-The 1110 11 l
teur Aigfrien publishes the following letter from Dal
matia, in Algeria, containing an account of an Inca
lion of locusts by which certain districts of the colo
ny are now infested : "In 'this Tillage the crop
devouring plague fell on us for ton consecutive
days. - Luring the two first the Insects did little
harm, but on the third day they arrived in such
large quantities that all the fields wore literally
covered with them. The pairing took place the
moment the insects alighted, which they did In such
swarms that in certain places they lay to a thick
ness of five inches. Every means employed to
, drive them away proved without. avail. The crops
of cotton, potatoe9, and maize, and especially the
kitchen -garden produce, were eaten up in a few mi
nutes.' The tobacco atone suffered but little. In
ono field, in a space of about five square acres, I
found twenty locusts' nests, each containing about
two hundrell eggs ; this gives four thousand.. Mul
tiply that number by forty, and you will have a total
ot one hundred and sixty larvm to the square metre.
The zone invaded by these insects In the neighbor
hood of the village of Dalmatia extends from the
Bene-Sri river along the Moulins gorge, in the di
rection of Oued-liremis, fora breadth of about two
thirds of a mile, and ;terminates at the brushwood
situated on the northern slope of the smaller Atlas.'
The botching of the eggs has already commenced,
and, without a miracle from Providence, a scourge
Still more terrible than the first menaces our agri

taken place, and to surround my land with it. When

A WELL-Pansanr EDNASTrE.—The Daily Union,
published at Virginia, Nevada Territory, says that
the retuning of an Indian wore lately found in the
Immense salt:field near sand Springs, about eighty
miles from that city, completely embedded in rock
Salt, four feet below the surface. • Tho body was In a
state of,complete preserration, and from appear- •
ances bad lain in the same position formany years, or
perhaps for ages. The flesh was perfectly dry, like
that of a mummy, and It was evident-that it had.
'been perfectly saturated with brine, which prevent
ed its decay. The Indian was about the usual size,
and resembled the Pintos that now inhabit the same
locality. Part of a boar-skin and a rude. bow were
found, near by, and at a distance of a few yards a
pair of elk-horns of enormous size wore disinterred.
The supposition is that this entire salt bed was once
a lake; and that the animal that had been wounded
had taken refuge in the water, whither ho was fol
lowed by the Indian, who sank in the mnd at the:
buttons, and was unable to extricate himself, and
thus perished.
THE NEW LITE OF STEAMERS TO FRANCE.—The

each having'six furnaces. The total weight of the
engines and boilers exceeds one thousand four hun
dred tons, and 'they give a nominal power of eight
hundred horses In all raveets this Is an excellent

A Pestrzinvg SOLI:ITEM—On Monday last Officer
Walling, while on a car, noticed a trim-looking
youngeavalryman, wearing the uniform of the 3d
New Jersey. who ho suspected was a woman, and he
took her to the Ninth Precinct Station on suspicion.
Here she gave her name as Emily Ebert, and stated
that she was from Philadelphia, that her husband
was a soldier in the Pal New Jersey cavalry, and that
she dressed herself in the uniform and made her way'
to dismounted camp Glesboro', with a view of being
sent to that regiment (3d New Jersey), and she was
bound to go. She was left in 'the office, but seeing
an opportunity slipped out and decamped.—Balli

A MONSTER BLAST.—At the Ardsheal granite
quarry, Scotlend, a monster blast was fired on
the 21st inst. Two tons of powder wore placed le a
chamber twenty-five feet lung. When the charge
was ignited it lifted an linmense mass of rock, like
a mountain of ice, computed to have been 30,000 tow
and upwards In weight.,The flame belched out in
a semicircle on the seawardside. ' Not a single frail—
anent of rock was teen to rise in the air, nor to be
sent across the main road, and no damage was clone
to the houses situated 'within a few yards of the ex
plosion.
A PittLADatrarAw Bltranzinn.—A man- named
James Thomas Gallen, said to have been formerly

To the Editor of the Press:
SIT:: Three Jeers ago on the 3d of July, I stood
with hundreds of fathers, mothers, wives, and
tern, at the font of Washington street, and witnessed
the embarkation of sixteen hundred men. Every
needed article of comfort suitable for men under
such circumstances, and with such a destination,
had been provided with almost parental care.
Officers of every grade moved to and fro, the meo,
company by company, marched on . board through
the guarded gangway, and as each Company
massed with the throng on hoard, who can tell the

came to his death, on the evening of July 4th, MIL
by a stab inflicted with a knife in the hands of
Henry O'Neil, at the house of Mrs. Eitgro, 11$ Lout
bard,street. The jury are further of opinion, from
the evidence elicited, that the said slat was inflicted
in self-defence, after having endeavored to escape
Rom the assaults of the deceased.
• In the CMG of the man whose name is believed to
be 'Robert Cornish, who was killed on the German
town Railroad a few days ago, the jury rendered a
verdict of accidental death.
An inciest was hold in the case of Patrick Smith
also, who was shot on the night of the Fourth by
John Carr, at Eleventh and Christian streets. The
following evidenoawas elicited :
Charles GOhirlek testified: In company with Carr
went into a house at Ninth and Flower streets, and
had a drink together, and thou went to Eleventh
and Christian. streets ; met Pat. Smith; he asked
us ton drink ; he had a pistol, and lisked me to shoot
it ; did so • lie.then asked me to give it to Carr to
shoot; I did so ; I turned round my back, and the
shot was fired; Heins said that was sharp shooting,
and I turned round and saw the man drop; I tired
the pistol off first; Smith did not speak after ho
was shot •, I don't know who loaded the pistol • the
pistol belonged to Patrick Smith; lie loaded' the
pistol me ; I heard no threats or angry words ;
• didn't know that he was • - "oing to shoot; I went af
ter the doctor, as soon as I knew Smith was shot;
saw Carr about an hour afterwards in a house in
Pullen street.
Barney. Heins testified : Pat Smitir.and I were
standing at the corner of Eleventh and Christian,
when 1 heard a pistol go off' and Smith roll; 1 said
that's sharp shooting ; Smith 'didn't say anything
,after he felt; Carr walked slowly away ; I didn't
see him point the pistol.
John IllcAnny testified that he did not see Carr •

after the shooting ; I felt Smith's body ter the
wound ;,Carr said he didn't intend to do It ; that it
was an accident ; somebody said that if it was an
necident he need not run away.
Officer Carmichael testified : I arrested Carr at
twenty minutes to twolve o'clock; 1 arrested him at
his boarding-house ; when I arrested him he said
that he had never fired a pistol before, and he
didn't intend to shoot Smitlt ; said the reason he
went away was that he didn't know what to do ;
that he thought about drowning himself.
Dr. Simple - Ist testified that he had made a post
ruortem csamination'on the body of the deceased;
the ball took effect at the lower part of the scull,
and passed through the brain ; the wound caused

from a pistol. in the hands .of John Carr, on the
night of July 4, 1864, at the corner of Eleventh ant

(Before Mr. IL S. Comminioner A. H. Smith.)
ENTICING SOLDIERS TO DESERT.
Four men, giving the names of Samos Brener.
son, Robert Cunningham, Bernard Fitzpatrick, and
James McKenna, were arraigned yesterday. after
noon on the charge of enticing soldiers to desert
from Camp William Penn. The evidence is quite
voluminous ; the pith of which is that for some time
past colored soldiers were induced - to desert the
camp, and werataken in charge by certain parties
in this city, and kept secreted by them for a few
days. Arrangements having been made, the de
serters were taken to New :Kersey, where they
shipped in the naval service. The , evidence ad
duced seems to be tolerably conclusive against the
defendants. In ono instance, a colored, soldier was
secreted in the house of one of the rte?.used, and an
other was hid in a hay-wagon. These desertions
having become quite frequent, Colonel Wagner,
commanding the camp, made arrangements to put
stop to the business, and the arrests of yesterday
may be considered the first step towards a reform.
The defendants were bound over to answer.
It is a somewhat singular thing that notwith
standing many arrests have been made, growing
out of the bountr•jumping business, substituteusl
new, enticing to desert , &c., Szc , none of the patties
hare ever been brought to trial.
•
COUNTERFEITER'S PRESS, CA PTURED,:&C.
•
George Dickerson, who keeps a place of business
at 1133 South street, was arraigned at the Central
Station yeiterday afternoon on the Charge of wattle
meaner in being concerned In the counterfeiting bu
siness. it seems from the evidence elicited that de
fendant keeps a liquor store, and that Oharles blur
- ray, a colored man, who drives a horse and cart, was
in the practice of leaving the key of the stable at
the store. It was also ascertained by the police, af
ter the arrest of Sam White, alias Quaker Sam, who
Was committed as mentioned in The Press yesterday,
that the package containing counterfeit netes•of the
Hingham Bank was directed t 0.1133 South street.
.At this house - Was a printing press used for counter
feiting purposes. It was boxed up. A day or two
after the arrest- of White, the attention of the co
lored man Murray was called by Dickerson, who
wanted him to cart a box away. The colored ' man
was suspicious, and fearing that ho might get him
self into difficulty, gave ifilermation to the officers.
The press was, therefore, captured and Dickerson
taken into custody. He was required to enter bail
in the sum 01 $l,OOO to answer.
Edward Martin, employed as a waiter at the . Co
ntinental, was arraigned yesterday, at thc Central
Station, on the charge of larceny. It seems that he
was suspected by the head-waiter of the establish
ment, and the attention of . Officer Russell was
caned: This officer in duo Lime made an arrest, and,
obtaining the key of the prisoner's trunk or ohest,
proceeded at once to inspect the contents. A cold
chicken several napkins, loaf sugar, spices, and
other - things belonging to the proprietor of the hotel
were discovered. The prisoner ran away when he
found that the discovery of his thieving had been
made known.. He was chased, and finally arrested
at Tenth and. Sansom streets. At the hearing ho
had no word of explanation. Ile was Committed in
default of $OOO bail to answer.
James Davis was arraigned yeoterday afternoon
on the charge of obtaining small amounts of money
from a number of citizens. It seems that on Monday
week he milled upon Mr..Trederick, on Market
street, and represented himself as Colonel Gros
man's son. Dlr. T. had seen him once or twice be
fore, and a pleasant conversation ensued on the
subject of the war, etc. He said he had a position
that would eult a relative of Mr. T., and wanted
lam to go to the Pennsylvania Railroad depot
where he had some freight to be attended to. By
this the young gentleman could got an insight into
the business. He then went to the depot. Davis
busied himself- apparently among the freight ; first
looking at barrels, then boxes and bales ; finally, he
went to the freight office, staid there a moment or
two, and returned to the relative of Mr. Trederick
and borrowed two dollars- and a half from Elm to
make up the balance of a freight bill. Presently he
departed, and thus left the anxious expectant to
whistle for the poslUon.
A short time ago the prisoner called on Emil
ton, on North Eleventh street, and had some con
versation with him about the State medical depart
ment, and said there was a nice position there for a,
young man. Mr. T. had a brother-in-law named
William Clark, whom he introduced as a suitable
person for such a situation as had' been described.
Mr. Clark. with buoyant feelings, accompanied
Davis to look after the position in the medicalde
partment. During this time Clark advanced his
friend VI for some 'specious pretext, and shortly
after this he took leave in a clandestine manner,
leaving Mr. C. to meditate on the difference between
doubt and uncertainty.
. On Tuesday, it seems. the prisoner called upon
Mr. Campbell, a groceiy-store keeper on Market
'street, not far from the Pennsylvania. Railroad
depot, and purchased about $ BOO worth of stores for
the cutters mess of the U. S. steamer New . Iron
sides. The grocer proceeded at once to till up the
.order by a given time. The purchaser went away,
saying that ho would return and see the artioles
safelfdelivered.. He came back in a few minutes,
and in somewhat hurried accents asked fur the loan
of five dollars, as an emergency had arisen. The
money was loaned him, the etores"were put up, but
he never called for them.
• -The prisoner. made a candid admission of -the
several charges preferred against him. He said that
he once ten Zed. .lltr. Walker's music store, under
Barnum's. • Museum, at Seventh and Chestnut
streets. He.thoro committed a crime, ho says, that
has prevented him making an honest living. Ho
Was committed to prison,
DANGEROUS 31ITRGLAR IDENTIFIED.
'The fellow who.gave the name of Sam Jones, at
the time of his arrest for chloroforming and robbing
a boarder at the Continentnl Hotel, has been identi
fied as the celebrated 13111 Dalton, tho New York
burglar. He was convicted In New York. and sen
tenced to nine years in Sing-Sing .prison. After
serving three years he effected his escape from that
place. This fellow, when convicted a few days
since in our court, was sentenced to only nine
months imprisonment for a vory high crime, that of
saturating a sponge with chloroform, and, placing it
to the mouth and nose of a sleeping man, then coax
miting a robbery. A combination of very singular
kind 6f men, called a jury, in rendering a verdict of
guilty, absolutely recommended the Convict to the
mercy of the court, a recominendatibn which the
jaciges,generally treat with due respect.
The prisoner was taken to Now ork in the early
train last evening.

Some time since a little girl was suspected of
stealing a gold watch and other articles, the pro
perty .of Mr. G. W. Dickson, residing in Sergeant
street. Sho denied ail knowledge of the theft, and
protested her entire innocence. -I , l'ply- shed tears
were .of no avail. Since her imprisonment other
articles were missed, and a Search was made. Stolen
things were found in the trunk of Ellen Carroll, a
boarder in the family. The gold watch was also
found upon Ellen. She was arrested, and after a
hearing wits bound over to answer at court. The
little girl, ir her heart is not broken, may console
herself with the reflection that it is better to be im
prisoned for innocence than 'guilt. The maxim of
the law is, In certain cases; that it, would be better
that anety.nine guilty persons escape titan
that one Innocent person should suffer.
