TEE GRAND UNITED STATES EPISCOPAL
CoNvrlcrxmc.—The General Convention of the
_Episcopal Church, to beheld in Philadelphian'
October next, will be attended with great inte
rest tmd more or less excitement. Its proceed ,
jugs win be exceedingly important. It is evi
*teal that there will he an effort made to reunite
the North and the SOntll,the same as The Church
was before the red hand of rebellion was raised
against the flag of the Union ; before men in
high places committed perjury, theft, and mur
kler in aid of the Confederate cause; before
thousands of human beings were starved to
death in filthy prisons, to aid the rotten Confe
deracy in its mighty onslaught against the at-
tributes of the Deity. There is to be a grand
convocation of the leaders of the Episcopal
Church, in which bygones are to be bygones
and the past to be buried in the Letheari
waters of blank oblivion.
According to the Bev. Dr. John Cotton
sniith, in his reply to the Bishop's Pastoral,
an effort will be made to introduce a new ca
non, intended to allow to the clergy of this
Church more liberalirelations with those of
other denominations. This movement will
'meet with vigorous resistance as well as
hearty support. The clergymen identified
with it are well known for their perseverance
And independence, as Well as for a tendency to
controversial discussion ; wide the !Bishop
will be supported in the course he has adopted
by the vast body of his clergy.
The return of delegates from the Southern
dioceses will be another and still more
portant feature Of the coming Convention,and
- there are questions to be Considered which
will aid to make the occasion one of special in
terest. It is stated, on what is believed to be
perfectly reliable authority, that letters have
been received, now; from the Bishops of the.
'Episcopal Church in nearly all of the Southern
Dioceses lately in rebellion against the Go
vernment, in favor of reunion at the General
Convention without any formality whatsoever
in Other words, the Southern delegates, alert:
Cal and lay, are alesirOns of resuming their
scats in the Convention precisely as if seces
sion and the war were things that had never
been.
Furthermore, a free interchange of opinion
among the Northern Bishops has just been bad
in reference to these overtures, and the deter
mination arrived at is substantially in accord
ance with the wishes of the Southern brethren,
and no time has been lost in so notifying the
latter. Bygones are to be bygones, and the
past buried in oblivion.
That is the programme in the House of Bish
opS, but whether it will be adopted by the
Rouse of Clerical and Lay Deputies or not, is
open to conjecture. When the Secretary of the
Convention proceeds to Call the roll, it Is not
improbable that objection may be Made to the
admission to seats of men, who, though minis
ters of God, or otherwise high in the Church,
did not scruple to lend their influence to the
"powers that be," which are "ordained of
God." The Bishops having defined their posi
tions, however, their influence over the rest of
the Convention doubtless Will be powerful in
the same direction ; so that, as things stand at
present, the chances are decidedly in favor of
forgiveness, reunion, and peace.
THE WEATllER.—Whenever the atmo
sphere becomes extremely cold or hot, it
forms the subject Of universal comment 5 and,
as such, furnishes material for writing. The
weather, at early dawn yesterday, was posi
tive hot; at noon, it was comparative hotter,
and at three o'clock superlative hottest; one
hour later, the heat still increased; but
Lindley Murray leavei us without any other
degree of comparison. There was a slight
rain shortly after daybreak, and distant
thunder ; then the wind sprang up light from
the southeast ; the morning mist disappeared,
and the arch of blue, decked here and
there with white clouds, formed a beautiful
picture for the delight of the lovers of nature.
But, with the sun in the zenith of his glory,
beat became excessive—so much so that out
doors working people had to relinquish their
occupation, and seek the shade and cold water
to bathe ;heir aching heads. The hot breeze
from the south increased sufficiently to raise
the dust, which, settling upon the perspiring
faces of pedestrians, stuck fast, and gave them
the color of veterans or Egyptian mummies,
litany a fat man, who was fast losing
him superabundance of flesh, sighed for a
trip to Atlantic City or Cape May. About
five o'clock dark clouds skimmed over the
- western sky, and the sun hid his burning rays
behind the ethereal embankment. Then, as it
grew more dense, the wind hauled to the
'westward, and one of those beautiful and in
terest-Ulm - though often terrifying phenomena,
a thunder storm, commenced. The shower
of rain came down thick and fast, set
tledeetifir frit grtirlil l twenfy 'degrees. The
beat at one time reached ninety-seven in the
shade. The storm lasted half an hour, during
which time Jupiter worked freely at his forge,
sending streaks of Ire athwart the clouds, and
punctuating the elemental war with a deep
and rolling thunder. The wind boxed the
compass, sprung' up from the northwest; the
curtain of the clouds raised, let in the clear
sun, that painted as brilliant a rainbow on the
eastern storm as we have seen for many a day.
A FOLICKWAIT OK nrS TnAVELS.—There
is no reason why policemen should not enjoy
themselves at a watering place, or wherever
they may select for their pleasure, when on
leave from duty. As Philadelphia is famous
for their lawyers, and doctors, and policemen,
like to see each of the professions maintain
their integrity to the letter. Jerseymon are
sharp, but we did not give them credit for
being keen enough to take in and do for one of
our smart special officers. Such is the case
however, and we may as well state the
facts of the case, because some people
have exaggerated it, and it has caused
our special some uneasiness. Our special,
With a friend of his, eoneluded to visit a
watering place in Jersey, and the former
suggested that they take their own wine with
them, as the beverage was so very costly at
these cursed watering places; The friend
thought the suggestion was an admirable one,
and the special stored into the recesses of a
hand trunk one dozen of champagne (band
unknown to us.) The pair arrived at their
place of destination, and during their sojourn
there for two days did not crack a bottle. On
the succeeding days, however, they produced
the nectar, and sat at the table sipping it with
all the gusto that a Prince could evince.
Things went on elegantly, and finally the wine
bottle was passed to some dialogue look
ing ladies and gentlemen at the table, who
seemed to appreciate the brand very much.
Being cognizant of the hotel prices, they
made themselves perfectly at ease, having, as
they supposed, money enough to settle their
bills, and come home to treat, travel around,
and tell their friends about what they had
seen.
"Let's go up to Philadelphia," says the
friend.
"All right," says Special ; "but I wiu go to
the proprietor and settle the bill. Pm smart.

Of course, this was acceded to; and up went

MISTAIiEIsi CHARITY, —A case of mistaken
charity, which occurred at the Continental
yesterday afternoon, is worthy of a notice in
2h e press. It imparts what may be considered
a practical exemplification of departing from
an old adage,that "a man should not be, judged
from his outward appearance." Sin may be
plated with geld; Virtue may be clothed in
rags ; but it is not usual to Ana a wealthy mail
in the ragged habiliments thus ascribed to
virtue. It seems that a rich man, who looks
more like a mendicant than anything, else,
was seated in the Continental, near the cigar.
stand. Ile was tired, or appeared to be so, and
he sat there with his old beaver hat between
his knees. TO the casual -visitor he looked
like a beggar silently soliciting alms. Ms
position, and the manner in which he held his
"shocking bad" hat, indicated penury, and
therefore excited the commiseration of those
who knew him not. Presently a young gentle
man passed along, and, in the kindness of his
heart, dropped a ten-cent note into the hat.
The Old man instantly sprang from the
chair, and seizing the young man by the
throat, exclaimed
"Do you wish to insult me !"
"O 1 Course not, air; I simply desired to ex
tend a little charity to you, ,, replied the giver.
"Charity, ha I'll give you charity," replied
the indignant old man, and then struck him
.One or two blows with a cane.
PartieB Interfere% anti while the charitably
,disposed individual was explaining thc•affair
the old man disappeared.
UNITED STATES TREASURY DEPART
lantrr.—The office of the Assistant Treasury of
the United States Government has been re
moved from the Mint to the Custom house, on
Chestnut street, above Fourth. The south
portion of the marble place has been iitted up
with a great degree of taste. The office will be
open for business to-day and henceforth. It is
a much more commodious place than the Mint,
and therefore the many thousands of people
baying business with Mr. Mclntyre, the Sub.
Treasurer, will appriniate the admirable
change. •
THE COMMERCIAL NATIONAL BANK
A NEW PHASE OF THE DEFALCATION.
HEARING OF A PROMINENT BROKER
THE EVIDENCE.
How Stock Speculations are Managed.
The heavy defalcation die Covered at the
Commercial National Bank,
a - f
ow months
able% soon ceased to be a wonder, but, yester
day, it was revived again.
A warrant having been issued by Recorder
Ellett, on the oath of Samuel C. Palmer, charg
ing George A. Graham with "fraudulently and
maliciciusly conspiring with CharleStE. Clark,
late paying teller of the Commercial National
Bank, with intent to cheat and defraud said
bank out of $50,000 in money and other pro
perty of the bank," it was placed in the hands
of Officer Trefts, who arrested Mr. Graham in
tipper Dublin Township, and brought him to
this city. Yesterday morning, at ten o'clock,
a hearing was had in the case. The defendant
was represented by Lewis C. Cassidy, Esq.,
and the counsel for the bank appeared for it.
The examination of witnesses developed the
following facts:
Samuel C. Palmer, sworn am the cashier
of the Commercial National Bank, and held
that office in 1e64-5 ; Charles E. Clark was the
braying teller of the bank ; Mr. Clark left the
ank on the 2d of May, and we found deficits
in his accounts that day to the amount of
*llO.OOO or 6fieo,ooo 3 on the followingday we dis
covered further deficits, which would make in
all about t 395,000 in round figures.
Cross-examined.—That is about the deficit,
as far as I know; the bank is behind $398,000
today ; I made the oath against George It.
Graben; I know very little of the case, except
from the data of his memorandums.
Counsel for the bank handed the witness an
envelope.
Mr. Cassidy. Don't look at anything con
tained in that envelope until I see it ; you can
refresh your memory from any memorandum
made by yourself.
The Recorder. Or unless you have talked
with Mr. Graham relative to the memoran
dums.
The envelope was withdrawn.
Mr. Cassidy. What have you done with what
you received since these prosecutions com
menced?
Witness. We have Only recelvea about $5OO
or WO.
Mr. C. You don't mean to leave the impres
sion on the Recorder's mind that the amount
you name is all that has been received in cash
or secured?
Witness. That is all I know of.
Mr. C. I want to know how much has been
secured to you.
Witness. I don't know that we have received
one dollar.

Mr. C. That will do sir.
Charles E. Clarke s worm—l was paying teller
of the Commercial National Bank in is 64 and
up to May, lties ; I believe the deficit, in my
account to be 98,000, as has been stated here
before; of this sum Graham had $53,500, as
near as I can make it; Mr. Graham received
the amount at various times ; he applied to
me for money and I gave it to him.
lliemorandums were now shown the witness.
He said: 1 believe them to be Graham's.
_ .
Others were shown him, and he said : These
are mine the money was received by Gra
ham in small sums, sometimes personally and
sometimes by memorandum ; I presume he
knew whose money , it was from the fact that
he certainly knew I had not so much money ;
in September be first came and got one or two
thousand dollars, probably two thousand ; he
said he would make a good turn for me; at
various times afterwards he got more money;
the money was used in stock speculations ;
never received anything from them ; on one
occasion I believe Graham said he hued to

means send me $2.000 ; I sent the money under
cover by the messenger who brought the
memorandum ; Graham never sent for money
but what I complied with his request, and all
of it was out of the funds of the bank; I don't
recollect of asking Graham to make invest
ments for me, but .L did ask him to do so for
My Wife and child, but itwas their own money'
I have told Graham that I had no money of
my own during the time of these transactions.
Gross-examined: Mr. Graham is a stock bro
ker ; I supposed this money was to purchase
stocks for me conjointly with Graham; on one
occasion Graham said he expected t 6 make a
good thing for me and him; I expected my
Share of what would he made ; there was never
any arrangement made between us at all; I
can't tell what portion of the money Graham
got in person or by memorandum; I left the
city on the first Monday in May; I think it
was the first day of May ; Mr. Graham brought
me back to the city •; I made no charge against
him before that ; I implicated no one but
Anspach up to that time • I am now in the
Custody of the Sheriff; I have' not been crimi
nally arrested.
Counsel for the Bank. Yes you have.
Witness resumed: I knew a warrant had
been issued for me criminally; I had no hear
ing; I can't say why; I did nothing to
prevent it; the charge against me was em
bezzlement, I believe; I am not under
bail on that charge, nor am I committed to
answer it; I am now occupying quarters in
the Debtors' Department; did not make a
charge hinder oath against Anspach, nor Was
I examined in his case ;I understood Anspach
charged Ine with forgery ; I think three weeks
after my return Mr. Jones and a committee of
the Bank came to see me ; they asked me to
make as clear statement as I could
of how the money had been lost;
did not ask what the result would be
if I did so ; I was then in the Debt
ors' Department; no one told me it would
be better for me if I confessed ; I have seen
my counsel at the Debtor's Department; I
made the first statement to the bank com
mittee different from what I now make ; I
made a statement that Graham used $5,000, be
cause, at the time, I supposed the balance of
the money was chargeable to my account ;
that it was my own, and not Graham's ; I was
in a great state of excitement when I made
the statement, and had no time to collect my
thoughts; I made it five or six weeks ago, at
the request of the committee of the bank,
who came down to see me ; I know the him
Mr. Chase, but do not recollect saying any
thing to him on the subject ; I made my last
statement three weeks ago, in consequence of
a note from my counsel, enclosing one from
the bank to him ; I was not told that I was
charged - with conspiracy, in connection with
Graham, until last night, when my counsel in
formed me.
Examination direct.—l never made a state
ment to Graham that be only owed $5,000; I
did not want to conceal that Graham wanted
to show that the $5,000 was for his own private
use; I don't know that anything was said
about the balance_ thought Graham owed
$5,000 to the bank himself.
The memorandums referred to were now
read, One of them says, " Dear Clark. Read
ing forty-stx. Come over. Send me two and
I am snug forever." Another : "Have changed
the Reading loan." Another: "We intend to
turn Beading and put it up." Another:
"Bought your Royal for cash? , Another :
"Must pay large sums. Come see me. Hope
to nave good news." Another : "I will return
it to you with compound interest,"
The send me two, meaning $2,000, was in all
of the above memorandums. .
Counsel for the bank asked that Mr. Gra
b= be held in $25,000; as he certainly must
_,.
have known that the money he received be
longed to the bank.
Tar. Cassidy contended that there was nO eVi
donee to show that any agreement was had be
tween Graham and Clark. The latter was
steeped all over with crime, and yet by some
process he is held in a Debtor's Department.
If a vagabond steals a watch he is sent to the
penitentiary with a great flourish, but a man
who steals *398,000, according to his own state
ment, is sent to the Debtor's Department. Gra
ham was the lira man tobring Clark to public
justice, and now he is to be held to bail for do
ing so. No one has ever been made to commit
his co-conspirator, and it is now gravely asked
to commit him in $25,000. Again, inferences
must not be taken in the case, but facts must
be proved. -
The Recorder decided to held Graham in
$lO,OOO bail to answer at court. Captain Harry
Itockafellar entered the required surety and
Mr. Graham was liberated.
Mr. Clark left the office with the Sheriff's Offi
cer, and lir. Cassidy askedfor a transcript, with
a view of calling the attention of the court to
the %CVO!' a man charged with felony being
eollftea in the Debtor's Department.

THE POLICE.
(Before Mr. Recorder Eneu.)
A TOTTCHqiG CABIC.
The life of a reporter, 'varied as it is, is calcu
lated to harden him to the scenes of life, be
they depraved or virtuous. When brutal men
exhibit cruelty to their children, all must re
coil in horror; but, what are our feelings when
a mother outrages everypure feeling of her
daughter. A case came before Recorder Enen,
last evening, which showed more depravity
than anything we have witnessed for a long
period of time.
A young girl, but fifteen years of age, made
a charge against her mother, and had her ar
rested. At the hearing the mother pat on an
sir of innocence that was astpnishiaffto be
:110145 MIK filfderetailTffirb - o - littlen.
The young lady testified that she had been
for six years at an academy of the Sisters of
the Visitation, near Baltimore, receiving her
education ; her board not being paid regularly
she left there and came home to her mother.
The scenes she witnessed at her mother's
house were told partially by the Child, who
sobbed bitterly during the recital. The Re
corder stopped her after he, as a humane ma ,
gistrate, lied heard strilleient to warrant him
in disposing of the case. The child then said :
" My mother dragged me this morning by the
hair of the head, and choked inn until the
neighbors came to my rescue Oh, sir, do not
punish her, but let her give me my clothing
and I will go awayfrom these sad scenes." The
poor child used excellent language, and while
her mother had ()Waged every maternal duty,
Vet her offspring was merciful towards her.
The Sisters in Baltimore may well be proud of
their pupil, for seldom have we seen so much
intelligence, modesty, and forbearance in one
so 'young.
The mother said the girl was too lazyto cook,
but wanted to eat up everything she saw, and
wound up by saying that she was raised better
than her child.
. „
The 'Rewriter asked her why she had aeted
so towards the child, when she replied that
rn
stubbo children must be corrected.
The impression left upon the minds of those
who heard the case was that the mother was
none too good to debase her offspring.
The Recorder banded the young lady over
to Reserve Officer Parker, who will Bee that
she not only obtains her clothing, but that she
proCeed to Baltimore to join those who love
and encourage virtue and intelligence.
