MB SERENADE TO MR. POSTMASTER C.
A. WALBORN.—At twenty minutes past nine
O'Cloelc last evening, the Liberty Cornet Band,
and frienda of the Postmaster of Philadelphia,
arrived at his palatial residence, corner of
Eighteenth and Green streets. The proceed
ings were opened by the firing of a small can
non, after 'which the band played Rail Colum
bia, the Star-Spangled Banner, and Yankee
Doodle.
Three cheers and a tiger were given for Mr.
Walborn.
In response to this compliment, Mr. Walborn.
appeared on the front door-step and made a
brief speech, as follows. The applause having
subsided, he said :
FearatDB AND FELLOW-eITIZENS: I am not a
very modest man—[cries of "that's so; that's
So,"]—but I have ,not vanity enough to sup
pose, for a single moment, that this great con
course have thus complimented me simply
because I have been reappointed Postmaster;
but I. take it for granted that you are joyous
because of the triumph of principle !
[weeds of applause]—a principle that should
ever be held dear by the people themselves,
for it is their triumph. [Renewed ap
plause.] It is the principle that you are
Able to select your own officers . ; it is say
ing to the authorities that you will not tole
rate dictation from those whom you have
elected to offices to attend to other matters.
[Great applause.] As a triumph of this prin
ciple 1 can rejoice with you— cheers]—for
you have settled, for a time at least, that a
few men shall not dictate who shall till the ML
tional positions in this City. A person who
holds a position under the National Govern
ment is simply a public servant, and, as such,
it is his duty to do the greatest good to the
greatest number of people—[great applause]
—without regard to creed or party. Such a
person should not be selfish in any respect,
nor should he be the subject of any body of
selfish men. [Renewed applause.] lite should
forget all personalities, and serve the public
on
M r l.
y. Walborn then proceeded to say that he
had been Postmaster of Philadelphia four
years and three months, during which time no
charge had been preferred against him. lie
solicited any one to make any charge against
his official integrity. [Applause,.] It was
urged that there should be rotation in office.
Ile told the President of the United States if
thistwas to bp the case then he was ready at
once to resign the position; but when he
learned the reality to be personal objection
and revenge, then he entered the contest with
a firin reliance on truth, and success attended
the effort. [Renewed applause.] He had al
ways stood by the principle that the people
Should choose for themselves, and not, simply
a cabal, who must answer to those very people.
[Cries of " That's so !" and applause.]
In conclusion, Mr. 'Walborn thanked his
friends, from the bottom of his heart, for their
kindness in visiting him this evening. He
would continue in the discharge of his official
duties without malice to any mum, and would
entertain charity for all. Let all men in going
to their homes take with them the thought,
that to whatever Sphere we may be called, let
us discharge the duties manfully and honestly.
With this sentiment, he bid the multitude
good night, and retired.
The band now played the Red, White, and
Blue, and the serenading party then proceeded
to the residences of Mr. B. W. C. Greene, Wm.
H. Godwin and COI W. B. Thomas, where a
number of appropriate airs were performed
by the luand.
SEJIENADB TO COL. W. B. TTOWAS, COL_
I.EcTon or THE PORT.—Last evening,shortly be
fore 9 o'clock, a large number of citizens as.
sembled at the Custom House, and having pro
cured a fine band of music, took up the line of
march for the residence of Col. Win. B. Thomas,
on Spring Garden street, above Thirteenth;
their object being to tender to that gentle
man their congratulations, the form of a
serenade, upon his reappointment by Presi
dent Johnson to the position of Collector of
this Port. About 10 o'clock, the procession ar
rived at Col. Thomas' htnze. A display of
fireworks was made, a cannon was fired, and a
large transparency with the words "Col. W. B.
Thomas, the people's choice," was displayed.
An immense crowd of people assembled in the
neighborhood.
The serenade by the band began by the play
ing "Auld Lang Syne." National airs fol
lowed, and Wm. S. Pierce,-Esq., addressed
Colonel Phonies On behalf of his feltow-eiti
zena. Ile Said that in the reappointment of
Colonel Thomas his fellow-citizens recognized
the Republican principle, which lay at the
foundatien of our Government. lie (Colonel
Thomas) had discharged his duty faithfully
and well, and the discharge of its functions,
the people demand, should remain in his
hands. The attempt to wrest it from him had
been made, not by a large number of politi
cians, but by a few parties who claimed to be
the representatives of the people; and they
seemed to imagine, on that account, that
they held the rights of the people of
Philadelphia in their breeches pocket.
lint, thanks to the independent spirit
of our good President they have been
ignominiously defeated. It has been the cus
tom in the English Parliament, when any of
the demands of the lords were refused by the
-Cream, for them to resign their °face. We
have not yet heard of the resignation of any
of these Congressmen. They may congratu
late themselves that the principles which lie
at the foundation of our Government have
been vindicated, and our President has held
himself aloof from and independent of Con
gressmen. We sent these men to W ashington to
represent us, and if they fail to do so, let them
beware of the result. He tendered to Colonel
-Thomas the congratulations of the great num
ber of people there assembled, as well as of
the whole people of Philadelphia. In conclu
sion, he remarked that Andrew Johnson had
shown that he could hang conspirators, even
though they were women. Hu could disap
point Congressmen, and these were the best
proofs we could ask that he would hang Jeffer
son Davis. The remarks of Mr. Pierce were
received with great applause.
In response, Colonel Thomas came forward
and said that he had on former occasions re
ceived the congratulations of his fellow-citi
zens, but on no occasion had it afforded him
so much substantial pleasure as on the pre
sent one. But, my fellow-citizens, the contest
between the people and those who, instead ot
representing their wisheS, haVe persistently
misrepresented them, is ended. Vie victory
of the people is overwhelming and complete
'applause] ; and how can I sufficiently thank
you for the promptness with which you ap
plied yourselves to the work of correcting the
false impressions made by our representatives
on the minds of the Hon. Secretary of the
Treasury, and his Excellency the President,
in regard to the wishes Of the citizens of Plu
ladelphMas to the Collectorship of this port.
It was represented by them that a very large
majority of the people demanded my removal.
You have demonstrated, by the protests of
the F.scoutive Committee of the twenty-six
wards ; by that of the delegates to the Rapti
more Convention, and the delegates to the
conventions that nominated these gentlemen ;
by the petition of the presidents of the VaTIOUS
banks; by that of all the importingmerehants,
as well as those of thousands of merchants
and other citizens; by the resolutions of most
of the 'Union Leagues, and of the Corn Ex
change Association, that, so far from this
being the case:, at least ninety per cent. of the
people were in favor of my reappointment,
leaving the three Congressmen standing alone,
supported only by a tor disappointed and ex
pectant office-holders and seekers. For your
kind and cordial support, you have indi
vidually and collectively my warmest thanks,
and 1 shall never cease to feel grateful for this
evidence of your confidence and regard. [Ap
plause.] I have had the privilegeof seeing
many of the testimonials forwarded to Wash
ington. 1 shall endeavor to repossess them, as
I consider them the richest legacy I can leave
my children.
Colonel Thomas urged a continued support
of the Administration in whatever measures
its officers in their wisdom should adopt.
Who does not to-day believe that if our arms
had been victorious during o
the first year of
the rebellion, the curse of slavery wuld have
been rivetted upon the nation for many years
to come ;and yet who did not ardently desire
the termination of the conflict within the first
ninety clays of its existence; and who does not
now admit that a wise. Providence permitted
the bloody conflict until the giant iniquity
was thoroughly purged from the land? (Ap
plause.]
In reference to the tariff, Colonel Thomas
said: "Your domestic industry demands such
legislation as will protect it against the ruin
ous competition Of foreign pauper labor, and,
at the same time, produce ample revenue tO
meet the wants of Government. To produce
a system of financial economy that will with
out embarrassing the commercial, agricultu
ral or manufacturing interest of the country,
and enable it to resume specie payment, will
require all the genius of the Philadelphia
delegation, although they should act as an
nnit in its production. And it is only fair
to presume that, inasmuch as they find
ample time to vibrate almost daily be
tween this city and Waehington, in order
to assist the President in the performance of
his duties, they have already perfected their
bills on these subjects, which will be presented
to the House during the early . days of the next
session. Then, again, a local interest of great
importance to Philadelphia is in their hands,
and the people cannot understand why,with
the powerful aid of the Secretary of the Navy,
Supported by the Chairman of the Committee
on Naval Affairs, the combined eloquence, in
dustry and tact of the Philadelphia delegation
in Congress, has not succeeded in securing for
- us that which Nature designed we should pos
sess, viz : the Navy Yard at League Island, or
at some point adjacent thereto on the Dela
ware River."
He conehuled his remarks by urging all, hoiv
eirer they might honestly differ with the Ad
ministration in matters of public policy, to
continue in its vigorous support.
HISTORY OF THE FLAG OF THE NINETY
3flaTi2L—The flag of the 55th Regiment Pennsyl
vania Volunteers, that was recently returned
to the members of the Coonerahon Committee,
whence it was received, has a somewhat inte
resting history. The Rag was presented to the
regiment when about to return from their
veteran furlough, in the month of February,
1864.
This flag was first raised in battle on the 4th
of May,lBo, when the bloody battle of the Wu..
derneSS campaign opened. On the following
day,. Lieutenant Colonel Edward Carroll was
killed, near the flag, while he was gallantly
rallying the men. The flag passed through
that memorable campaign, was frequently
perforated by flying minie balls, and it con-.
tinned to wave defiantly during all the actions
of theist division'of the sth Corps. Many at
temptswere made to capture it, but the enemy,
was driven back in dismay and confusion.
On the 10th of July following, the flag, with
the regiment, left City Point for Washington,
I). C., and at this latter place it unfurled its
beauty and Dower on the 12th, in direct de
fence of the capital of the nation;:the enemy
iieing driven from hovering about that city.
The rustle of its silken folds was next,
beard in. the Shenandoah valley, when that glo
rious general, " Cavalry Sheridan," awakened,
'Early in the morning," and drove that re
doubtable candidate to inglorious immortali
ty, whirling through the Talley. The flag
waved in all the battles of that short, sharp,
decisive, and brilliant campaign.
At the battle of Cedar Creek, on October 19,
18642 a piece o f shell passed through it,tearing
a Urge portion out of the centre. This shell
fragment passed within a few inches of tfie
bead Of its gallant bearer, John Southwell.
;le kept it aloft, bat presently another New
of shell splintered 'the stuff; aiitijoit a 41mo.
went, the color sergeant, almost envOliipekitn
its torn folds, raised the proud emblem on the
broken staff. Me was promoted to the rank-of
first lieutenant.
In December, 1864, the flag was. unfarleirt in
.
the sulphurous breeze of Petextbnitlra.
On February ith, 186. i, its torn remnants
were again pleated in the faces of the rebels
in the action at Hatcher's Run. It received
several shots during this engagement, but
what was left of it floated in triumph over the
rebel horde. , It had now become so complete
ly riddled with shot and shell that the rem
nants were Preserved. It was 110 more raised
in battle array.
.
TIM. NEW WILLCOX & GIBBS SEWING
MACHINE ESTATtLISEMENT.—The beautiful new
warehouse for the sale of the popular Willcox &
Gibbs Sewing Machines in this city,No.ng Chest
nut street, was formally opened to the 'awe
. 1
yesterday. The interior of the store presents a
view.to the passer-by .that is certainly not sur
passed, if itis equalled, by any similar establish
ment in this country. The carpeting, paper
big, frescoing, furnishing, and general arrange
ment is strikingly effective, showing that the
proprietor and designer, Mr. James Willcox,
not only brings energy and capital to bear in
reviving the business of this celebrated Com
pany in Philadelphia, but a degree of libe
rality and taste also that our citizens appre
ciate. Of the Willcox & Gibbs Machine we
can speak experimentally, and in the highest
terms of commendation as being all that could
possibly be desired in a - first-class family
sewing machine. Many of them are now in
use in Philadelphia, and had their claims been
as fully presented here -as those of some
of their competitors, their sale would
have been unparalleled. The fact that Mr.
Willcox. since his return from Europe, has de
termined to give us the benefit of a leading
house in his line is, however, sufficient gua
rantee that no pains will be spared to place
the admirable machine he represents before
our people in the manner it deserves.
A CHATTER OF ACClDENTS.—Yesterday
morning, about two O'clock, the attention of
the police of the Sixth ward WaS called to the
COmmercial •Dot el by u loud noise. An inves
ligation was made, and it was found that
Captain J. D Webster, of the 90th Neg. P. V.,
who was stopping at the hotel, had fallen
from the window of his room on to the roof of a
one-story building adjoining. Officer John
Beam got upon this roof, and when about to
take hold of the man, stepped over the edge
and fell into the area below. He was not
reached until twenty minutes had elapsed,
and then he was picked up in an insensible
condition, and conveyed to his home in Apple
tree alley. Ho was Severely cut about the
head, face, and hands, and badly bruised about
the body. He had come in contact with some
thing in falling, as his coat was entirely torn
from his back, and a heavy double case silver
watch in his pocket was smashed. None of
his hones were broken, but his injuries are of
it Serious character, and will confine him to
his house for some time. The officer was not
seriously injured.
REVENUE SEIZURE OF TWO MAIM -
FACTORIES—ALLEGED INFRINGEMENT OF PATENT.
—James Smith and John Miller arc alleged
to have been engaged in this city for over a
month past, as proprietors of two factories
located in the Western part of the city, in the
manufacture of hard rubber combs, made and
sold in violation, as is alleged, of the "Good
year patent."
The facts having been obtained by Edwin
L. Abbett, Esq., the Attorney of the India
Rubber Comb Company, this gentleman was
enabled to verify the stateMent.
These manufacturers, it is further alleged,
endeavored to evade the revenue laws, making
no returns of manufactures, nor applying for
a manufacturer's license. Consequently the
Collector of the Second District, upon in
forinatio_n, made a seizure upon the ma,
ellinety, materials and goods at the two fee
tories, and he holds the same for liens of the
Government. Proceedings in equity have been
instituted against the parties in the Circuit
Court of the - United States for this district.
ALLEGED PARRICIDE STILL AT LARGE.—
The body of William Webster has been in
terred at Franh-ford. He tiled on Saturday
last, from the effect of a blow with an axe, in.
fficted by his son, in Montgomery county, On
Wednesday last. It seems that the deceased,
and his son Joseph, who resided in the same
house, on the turnpike, below Montgomery
Square, bad a quarrel in reference to the son
taking ,a horse out of the stable. The son
wished to take the horse ont, and his father
interfered to Prevent him; and during the
altercation Struck him. The son seized an
axe, lying near by, and inflicted on his father
a terrible wound, laying open the skull. Sur
gical aid was summoned, but proved useless;
No tidings have yet been obtained concerning
the murderer, who made his escape immedi
ately after the commission of the crime.
RAILROAD ACCIDENT.—We were in
formed last evening that a lady of this city,
who had been to Atlantic City on an excur
sion, was run over and killed, about six
o'clock in the afternoon, by the cars. It ap
pears she attempted to get upon the cars
while they were in motion, and, missing her
footing, she fell under the wheels, and was
crushed t o death almost instantly.
A VISITING BASE BALL CLUB.—The
Union Club, of Morrislana, arrived in this city
last evening. To-morrow afternoon, at three
o'clock, they will play the Athletics, at Fif
teenth street and Columbia avenue. It is be
lieved that the game will be an exciting one.
FATAL ACCIDENT ON A RAILROAD.—John
Reese, aged twenty years, was found dead yes
terday morning on the top of a freight-ear at
the Pennsylvania Railroad depot, at Powel
ton. His head was horribly crushed. It is sup
posed he was titling on the top of the ear, and

AnnatAteRATILE TlllO.---The Paris correspond
ent of tke New York Methodist furnishes the
following interesting account of a species of a
tree brought within a few years from AuStra
lie to Algiers:
" The Moniteur, in giving an account of the
Emperor's recent visit to the Jardin
matron at Algiers, stated that his Majesty was
much struck with the rapid grOWth Of the
Eucalyptus nesinifera Or. Australian tree,
which has attained a height of thirty feet and
a diameter of six Males in two years. This
remarkable tree, in its native soll—AuStralia
—sometimes reaches the height of three hun
dred and forty feet and has been found more
than nineteen feet in 'diameter at aboutn yard
from the ground. It often yields planks two
hundred -feet long, without a single defect.
The w00(1,-BOtivititstanding its rapid growth,
Is hard, and beavoileoir•s, and'thtiti o
sents beautiful ak. is t-a consequently
colors,
'well adapted for cabinet work. An astringent
gum, known in commerce as kino, is obtained
by making incisions into its hark. Tap erica_
lyptus is an evergreen ; its leaves liaMnearly
the same shape as the laurel. The develop
ment of its lateral branches are no less won
derful" than its stems. They are small until
the frank attains the heiht of about one hun
dred • feet, when they' slight out almost bort
" zentally, sometimes to the length of ninety
feet, giving the tree the appearance of an
enormous umbrella. The seed, strange to
say, is very small, and not unlike that of the
tobileco plant. The flowers Are White by , of a
whichost agreeable smell, and Mu bees,
extract from them ach
mast delicious
honey. It is also remarked in Australia. that
the ague is almost unknown in districts where
this tree is abundant."
The Queen of the Sandwich Islands is said

stylish, and thirty..
The Cholera' in Egypt. .
AaIOAEDRIA, July 8,1865.
The following are some details of the cholera
in this town - -
en the DM of June the number of cases of
cholera which had proved fatal in Alexandria
was wpm and of sixty. From that date to the
11th the average number of deaths was eighty
;lye per diem, making a total of 857 since the
outbreak of the epidemic.
At this date a violent chanisin arose, which
continued with great intensity until yester
day. The appearance of this oppressive and
dangerous south wind is very rare at this ad
vanced season of the year, but at this particu
lar time such an occurrence was a most un-•
fortunate complication of matters, and was
attended by a sudden extension of the epi
demic. On the 27th the Official list shows the
mortality to be lEZi ; on the :fah, 143 ; on the
27th, 208 ; on the 28th, 214; on the 20th, 209 ; on
the 80th, 197 ; on the 2d of June, 196 ; on the 3(1,
228 ; on the 4th 170 ; on the oth, 118 ; on the tall,
132 on the 7th, IN. It is believed that the
- mortality is much greater than stated by the
above-mentioned official reports ; hut, on the
other Muni, the suranisos of an excited and
panic-stricken population arc dotibtless exag
gerated and unreliable. According to popular
estimates. the official numberS should be
quadrupled.
It cannot be doubted thatsuch a vapid spread
of the epidemic LS to agreat extent due to local
causes, and principally to the state of the
dwellings of the Arab fellahs which are shared
alike by man and beast; to the food of these
natives, which, especially at the present time,
is ffl
insueient and had to the putrid water the
Arabs are compelled to drink during the low
state of the Tile; to the excessive heat; the
want of, personal cleanliness among them, as
well as among the poorer class of Europeans;
and, lastly, to the stupid superstition of the
Arabs with regard to the sickness on the one
band, and on the other their well-known indif
ference in the presence of epidemic and death.
It is roughly estimated that between 18,000
and 20,000 European residents have left Alex
andria. Every kind of transport has been
brought into use to aid their flight, and Syria,
the Greek Islands, Italy, and France, are the
refuge of these emigrants.
Nine steamers have taken about seven hun
dred passengers to Trieste.
The epidemic did not long confine itself to
Alexandria, It has not only attacked the vil
lages of the Delta, and the towns of -Dhaman
hur, Tanta, Mansura, and Zagazig, but at Cairo
the choleraic symptoms have shown them
selves in a manner which gives rise to the
most serious apprehensions.
The official reports from Cairo are even less
reliable than those issued here. The epidemic
came there with the chamsin, The population
of Cairo is about 800,000.
In Alexandria business is at a Complete
stand-still, and almost all the Arabian ba
zaars, shops, and offices are closed.
