SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 19, 1864. The Cathedral' Medal. In commemoration of the oompletion and solemn opening of the Catholic Cathedral, to-morrow fore noon, Mr. A. 0. Paquet, for many years artist and die-sinker to the Mint, has executed a superb medal. It more than ticree * inches in . diameter, and has been struck in various metals. In srhat Is , called white metal , . strongly plated, It is sold by • Mr. Bailey, tbe jeweller, Chestnut street, for $5, and . •Is neatly put up in a neat • velvetlined case. The . -obverse, which is in very Strong retievo, fopresents the principal ~facade •of the ,Uathedral as it will , appear when the two side towers are added to It. The inscription, In raised letters, Is "Cathedral ,of St. Peter and St. Paul, Philadelphia. Begun 1816. Completed 1884." This is a bold and correekarchl• teotural design of a very magnificent edifice. The reverse shows the interior of the building, the dome' pattlally exhibited, and the perspective terminating with the grand . altar. There are two inscriptions here, in Latin : "Tu es Petrus, et super hano tram sedlficabo ecclesiam moam," and "'Vas !leo- . Mills est milli isto ut portet nomen 112011 M. ooram gentibus." This medal is worthy, in design and execution, of the solemn occasion which has sug gested Its production. Mr. Paquet, the artist, exe cuted the medallions in the beautiful locket pre : - sented to Mr. Lineoln, this weak, from Philadel phia, through the hands of the Hon. W. D. KelleV, arid ranks as high hero as Mr. Wyon ranks in Enr land. rind the occasion, and Philadelphia will supply the artist: • riublications Received.. From J. J.

OAmPORTITA STEAMERS-- DISOOVERIF.JAND FRUSTRATION OP THE SCHEME. The New tiirk Times of yesterday gives publicity to the followitg. statement : We have hien in possession for some time past of highly interegting and important incormation, de rived from Havana, in regard to a proposed rebel plan for captitring American passenger steamers upon the Pacific ocean. Hitherto we have refrained from giving' the fapts publicity, lest- a premature announcement should tend to defeat measures that had been taten.to frustrate the .plot, and arrest•the parties thereto: Now that any danger of - that sort is over we are at liberty to show how narrowly. we have eseapeethe necessity' of recording' another Roanoke -affair,sonly on a larger- scale, upon the waters of th(Pacilic. The detaiKelthe, plot In question - were consum mated at Havana some. time since, under the ap proval of S. R. Mallory, the Confederate Secretary of the Navy. 3 _ Its leader -and manager was Thomas A. Hegg, holding a commission in tne rebel navy as master, wit - q.atith•apiCrty.of•from sixteen to twenty men, lettuiligi,ler.,Panumaq Now Grelitala,-the. last of.

Mail Steamship Company, plying bettreen'Padama, and San Francisco. The party 'were all well - armed, and abundantly sup plied with ammunition concealed their baggage. They were to take paSsage.on th, Guatemala for different central American ports, so as not to excite suspicion: . Hogg was to go on board first, carrying his baggage, which was to contain nothing suspi cious. If it was not searched, his followers were to convey on boar their trunks subsequently, with the arms:and ammunition concealed In them. • The seizure of the vessel was not to be attempted' until she_ had got to a point upon the Central :Ame. rican eosin, some two hundred miles from Panama, where there was no danger of falling in with a cruiser, or with any craft that could give notice of the change of command of the Guatemala when it had been effected. No serious difficulty was ap prehended in taking possession of the Guatemala', as her officers were not likely to anticipate any danger, and were expected to be found entirely off their guard and without the means of resistance in their hands. The Guatemala carries two g.uns for her own pro tection from privateers. Relying upon these for of fensive purposes, the pirate then proposed to Grain for the - passenger and specie-carrying steamers of the California trade; until they had oaptured at least one of them, with which; probably, they would have essayed': a'-trip •aoross the Pacific to East Indian waters,:proviaed they could obtain the necessary coal by capture of some one of the . colliers constantly engagedlnearrying steamer supplies of fuel to Cen tral AS iierloan ports, Panama, Acapulco, San . ..Tuan del Sur,-aiid San-Francisco. Ultimately the conspi rators hoped.to follow up their success by proceeding, in the Guatemala, to the coast of Northern Califor nia., •andlthere making a raid. against Ben . Hallo day's like of steamers between San Francisco, Ore gon, and British Columbia. Fortunately, the scheme was discovered by some means, and we presume information must have been sent direct from Havana to the Isthmus, in time to frustrate the execution, as we hear, on private au thority frOm Panama, that the parties known to be implicated were all there and atAspinwall, as late es the nth of this month, and. were known . to' the United States consuls at both places, to the com manders of the Panama Railroad Company's steamers, and to the United States naval commander in the port of -Panama. It appears that the' dove redoes arrived too late for the. Guatemala—a por tion of them having gone to Aspinwall via St; Thoinas.. The Guatemala sailed on the 25th of Oc tober. The next Panama Railroad steamer for Cen-. tral American ports was the Salvador, to sail on the 10thinst. and it was -.understood at Panama that the piratical party were to take passage in her. If they did so, they were promptly arrested after their arrival on boareevery • arrangement having been made for that purpose. Nothing can have prevented their capture,probably, unless the fact snail have leaked out at Panama that they were adspected ; in which event, of couise, they would-not be likely to plat e themselves under the American flag, where their seizure would be free from international em barrassment. • . Master Hogg, (sometimes called Egerton), we un• derstand, is a native of Baltimore, who has lived sonic, time In New Orleans. His ckief officer is a man named- Bradshaw, who claims to have once been a commander of the Guatemala. Edward J. Norville, a native of Baltimore, but now of Mobile, Is Hogg's master - ' Win.

Discoveries of OH in Michigan. mzracauss RESPECTING TREE ORIGIN OPPISTROLEIIM The Pittsburg _Commercial of Thursday contains the annexed _lnteresting article describing an 'oil district in Michigan, and including some new spool. batons upon the origin of that wonderful natural. product, rock oil : After several disappointments in procuring oil in - any quantity in Michigan, the poopie of. that State have been thrown Into excitement by the discovery of a well near Lakeport, St:'Clair county. The his tory of this discovery is narrated as follows : Some' time since Mr. L. Baker, of Toledo, learning that u gum beds," or deposits of bitumen, existed near Lakeport, and that gas had been escaping abun dantly, proceeded to the vicinity, and qutety pur chased 2,000 acres of land, embraoing all the loca tions on which the indications referred to existed. He at once commenced the sinking of a shaft, and that ie now'in progress. As soon as Mr. Baker's purchase became; known, several other parties commenced prospecting and buying land in this vicinity. An Eastern company especially, understood to be al 'ready interested in explorations in other carts of the State, purchased and leased large.tracts, said to amount to four thousand acres or over. These 'purchases, however, it is evident are not likely to embrace the most promising lands. These were secured by -Mr. Baker, who has been' repeatedly importuned to sell at an enormous ad vance. One circumstance will show the validity:of the Indications acted . on, when judged by the most .experienced practical men. Mr. O. Funk was one of theorlyinai proprietors of the celebrated Funk wells - op 011'Creek, in Pennsylvania—on,e of which 00Me. time over 3,000 barrels of oil daily. 'Thisagetylemais, hearing of the Miohigan discove riesy*lsited.the State to make observations for him , self, and.wits so well satisfied with what he saw that he ;purchaied of Baker a two-thirds interest In a certain eighty acres; for the sum of $21,000, and fur ther agreed to pay iaoo,ooo if oil should be found in quantities of commercial importance. Recently,says the Detroit-Advertiser, Mr. Funk visited the region again, and though the works are only In progress he. seems to regard the result as no longer contingent, for he announces to Mr. Baker that he should hold : himself, bound for $lOO,OOO, and ,has gone to New York, to trawler the amount to Baker's credit. ' The reader t will inquille what really substantial evidences exist that the indications alluded to are anything more than the superficial signs generally present'among the rooks of the coal measures, and In the carniferous limestone, (in Monroe county for example,) but which-have never been found to be the omens of large supplies of oil. It was especial: sly to enable himself to answer this question that •Nr. Baker consulted Prot Winchell, of the Univar . pity who' has made the geology of Michigan his sindy, - ,and• hati made a reiport, published .by_ the State,'on the geology of the lower peninsula. Prof. W Inchon:visited . the region, and also extended his obkinv.l4o,ictigiaigli the tewnship of, Enniskillen, In Canada A Vest, fetithe purpose of,being able to in stitnte comps rims between the two regions. - The re it/It of geoloo lel examinations made at thistime and previously Bhov. •si that the two oil regions are based on the awl egeoion.'eal formation—thelluron group, ao cording to the MI ehigan ipport,Of 1860; It - shows that the meta body •cd the formation , - &lista on the .

Of these proofs, besides the- identity of the formation, may be mentfoneid the similarity in 'the physical features of the region, the black color of the water-- Black river being the counterpart of Black creek— the existence of extensive "gum beds,wor deposits of bitumen, the appearance of oil on , the surface of. standing waters, the escape of enormous quantities of gas, etc. In every respect the analogy with the Enniskillen region is complete, and the differences exist' only In the degree in which the manifesta tions present themselves. These differences are all In favor of the Michigan side. . PERSONAL. —Miss Mary Lee, of New York city, was marrtimi. at the American Minister's, in Paris, on the 26th` nit., to the Prince of Schleswig-Holstein, Uncle to 'the Duke of Augustenburg.

Harney bear the titles of Countess, and a daughter of My', James 4 Pbelan, of New York, some three years since, became the wife of Vicomte de . dabriac. There are (says a Paris correspondent) not a few others of our fair countrywomen here who hope yet to place titles upon their visiting cards. Some of them, It is feared, will wait too long. A few months since, a dashing young widow of New York was engaged to a Count who had attained the ripe age of, eighty. He'had no fortune, hoviever, and little except his title to recommend him. His affianced succeeded,- through the. influence of the Duke de Morny, in obtaining an Interilew with the Emperor, in which she urged upon his Majesty the propriety of - giving some appointment of' pecuniary value to her venerable but penniless affianced. The Emperor, however, politely but firmly refused, alleging the superannuated condition of the, gentlemanand so • the match is "off.!' A Washington correspondent of theßochester Eaness says: Sojourner Truth (whom everybody -knows) is in the city, having• come here epressly to visit Mr. Lincoln, and express to him her thinks for his proclamation freeing so many of her race. I have knosin Sojourner for--a long time, and it seemed very natural that I should bathe one chosen by her to introduce her to the White House.. I considered myself very fortunate in being able to obtain an interview, as really my husineis could not.- he considered urgent, and that I had not the clainC. to his attention which was very strongly made in.:, my presence,.and of which I shall speak by-and-by; "that I bad voted for him." I had done no such thing, audit my sea did not prohibit me from that privilege,-Icould not have even prOmiseA tOyetio.- for him. Nevertheless, our President recelied l nier and the woman whom I wont to introduce with real politeness and a pleasing cordiality: I am not going to deicribe Mr. Lincoln's personal appearance, for that sort of thing has been done a thousand times. To say that he is the most awkward man in the na tion is nothing in itself—awkwardness or grace are of the smallest moment just now. What we want is resqlute and determined action, and in that short interview with Mr. Lincoln I became. convinced that, whatever may have been the former delin quencies of the President, he has now come to the conclusion to act. Sojourner delivered to him her thanks for what he had done for her people, saying at the same time that he was the 'only President who had done anything for their. Mr. Lincoln re joined, "and the only one who ever had any such opportunity. Had our friends In the South behaved themselves, I-could have done nothing whatever." Honest, wasit not 1 Well, honesty has always been awarded to the. President. We were shown the Bible which was presented to Mr. Lincoln by the colored people of Baltimore, •and altogether the visit was quite satisfactory. • Mrs. Peggy Fite, who died, a few- days ago, in Wilson county, Tenn , was one hundred and three yeare,old on the first of March last. Iler husband, Leonard Fite, was-a soldier of the Revolutionary war, and fought through that struggle as a private, having steadily refused promotion. Mr. and Mrs. Fite emigrated to Tennessee from North Carolina, and settled in Nashville when the place was known as Nash's Lick. In those days Mrs. Fite often as listed In bullets, while' her husband and others belonging to the "settlement , ' were defend ing themselves against the attacks of the Indians. On the 12th of April, 1861, a large number of her descendants met at the house of Jacob Fite and celebrated the one hundredth anniversary_ of her birth. At that time she had eleven children living —her oldest (a son) being eighty years old, and her youngest (a daughter) fifty-nine ; seventy-six grand children, three hundred and five great.grand chil dren, seventy-one great-great-grand children, and two great great-great grand children; in all, four hundred living descendants. At the time 'of her death her grand children of the fifth generation had increased to, twenty-one, and her. grandson feels quite certain her living descendants now number over five hundred. We are happy to announce the arrival in this city of Baron Gerolt, the Minister of Prussia, who has so long, and so acceptably to this Government, represented his country here. Baron Gerolt has been in Europe for several 'monthi, and his absence has been keenly felt in the circles of diplomacy and of the haul ton.—Washington Chronicle, SCIENTIFIC. A furnace, patented by- Mr. B. B. Wilson, which is almost smokeless and greatly.economizes fuel, is in operation at Messrs. Moreland's works, London. There are no fire.bars in the furnace, the air entering upon the surface of the fresh coal causing a downward draft; as•the floor of the rever berating oven slants downward from the coal box. The gas is thus slowly and continuously dis tilled until it comes in contact with the lower stra. tum of burning coals, when it becomes sufficiently heated to ignite. The principle adopted seems to be that of turning a common fire upside down, not unlike a furnace bank foremost, so that the fresh coal is applied at that end whence the smoke of its first Ignition goes through the fire and is consumed, instead of being placed on the end of the tire, whence the direction of the draft carries it off as soon as evolved. The principle is very simple, and probe,- bly efficient, though not novel.. -- The latest novelty in the hat line is a recent in vention of A. C. Crondal, of New York city. It is a cork hat; made of two layers of cork; which "are pre pared with composed oil, and packed or attached to an intervening pleas or canvas, muslin,.or other textile fabric, in . suet a manner _that a hat Is pro. duced which is light, durable, elastic, and Impervi ous to water and to the rays of the. sun. By pre paring the,cork with Each oil the hardness Is re moved trim the same, and it is rendered soft, elas tic, and impervious to water. Thus prepared, the ocrk is applicable to hats, bonnets, cape, and, in fact, to head coverings of every description.
