BPDYORD, PA., Ang. 19, 1861 The members of the Union State Central , Committee, appointed by the recent Con vention at Harrisburg, are requested to meet at No. 1165 Chestnut street, Philadel- Phis, on THURSDAY, the 31st day of Au gust, 1865, at ten evlock A. M., for the purpose of organizatsen and the transac tion of such other hoehicss as may claim their attention. A full attendance is earnestly requested. JOHN CESSNA, Chairman Union Rate Central Committee THE GO.OPEMATIOW MOVEMENT, A. French philosopher of the last century, while considering the present necessities end future prospects of the laboring classes, struck out the theory, that their future his tory would record a slow progression through a long apprenticeship of " guaran teeistn," followed by au age wherein varied associations of industry would slowly but surely pave the r 1 ay, until a complete method would be eventually evolved, by which thorough industilal organization would at length place labor in its true posi tion, seettrin,g to every man the full profits of his work, and the opportunity of select ing the pursuit congenial to his tastes and suited to his capacity. This "golden age" the French philosopher wisely postponed to a far distant day, assured that the con dition of society - would present insuperable obstacles to its speedy inauguration; but his plan or system was so complete that occa sional enthusiasts, blinded by their own fancies and deaf to the dictates of pru dence, have endeavored to establish small communities in various places, although their limited means and insufficient mate rials have always frustrated the design, and rendered the attentpts abortive. g however, we arc inclined to deny that such industrial organization is practicable even in the far ilitcre, we must at least agree that the first step of his progress, " guaranteeism," is being slowly inaugu rated, and subjected to the test of experi ment. .A.Mong the industrial classes, even to the lowest, there are an almost infinite number of "societies" in which the mem ber by the periodical payment of a small sum is assured a maintenance daring ill ness, and a respectable burial. These or ganizations are very numerous in the cities, especially among those operatives who de pend solely on the day's wages, and have bitter experience of the insecure tenure of employment, and the iletjuent fluctuations in trade. Necessity has compelled them to find a refuge in some scheme of mutual sup port, and the stern logic of suffering has driven them to a step which the wisest economist must accept as admirably adap ted to the most essential needs of humanity, and a truly philosophic foundation for more complex organizations in the future. Unions among various trades /We exist ed for a long time, providing for the mu tual protection and benefit of the members, and have been, in many cases, very advan tageous both to the public and to private intliyiduala. Stores and warehouses have also been attempted, where the workmen could exchange the product of their indus try without the mediation of middlemen, thus receiving a more just equivalent for their labor than when the profit of the in terchange remained in the hands of the merchant. These enterprises require so much patience and prudence in the admin istration and support, that they have not been as uniformly successful as was hoped, and as the just basis on which they rested would seem to warrant; but when they have been wisely managed and sustained their success has been complete. One of the most important industrial associations, because the most successful, as it was also the first, was established in Rochdale, Eng land, in 1844. It originated among a few flannel weavers, who had just lost all the hoarded savings of years by the dishonesty of •an official in a savings' bank, and who, dis heartened and almost despairing, sought for some other means of assuring themselves against the pressure of want. The original capital amounted to only one hundred and forty dollars, itud the membership only twenty-eight individuals. A store was rented for fifty dollars, and a stock of gro ceries purchased with the small sum re maining after fitting the shop for their special purpose. From this humble be ginning they reached the next year a fund of £lBl, and in 1563 had risen to £40,361, or about c. 9.46,000. The profits in 1845 were but WO, and in 1863 amounted t 2 about $OB,OOO. This prosperity, attracted the attention of the laborers of other por- Ilona of the country, and it is now com puted that eight hundred similar s.ssoeift lions exist in England and Scotland, with a membership of two hundred thousand and a capital exceeding one million Poun.ds sterling, .No mere money value can express the benefit derived by the operatives of Roch dale from this industrial union. In the language of one of the members : " They are weaving their own stuffs, making their own shoes, sewing their own garments, and grinding their own corn. They slaughter their own 'cattle; and the finest beasts in the land waddle down the streets of Rochdale for the consumption of flannel weavers and cobblers." By placing their business in the hands of upright men, they have secured to themselves the fair value of their wages, and defended themselves from adulteration in food, or inferiority in the quality of their purchases. And the general prosperity, and the sense of se curity which have been diffused through the eonmumity, has the happy effect of exhibiting the practical effects of sobriety and industry; and assuring the wavering and the weak a fair remuneration for their labor, and an incitement to perseverance. EDUCATION OF TILE FREEDMEN. In the reports from the schools for freed men, instituted throughout the Department of the South, there is evidence of a pro gress that is very remarkable, if we con- shier the brief period in which they have 1, been in operation, and the various (Moil ties with which they must contend. The teachers at every district are unanimous in the statement that the freedmen of both Eexcs and all ages are extremely anxious to learn to read and write, and avail them selves eagerly of all the opportunities ac cessible to them ; that they are docile, and really intelligent; proving, beyond all doubt, that the present condition of igno rance is not owing to natural incapacity, but to the servitude of years and to the de gradation which must be its consequence. The unsettled condition of society, and especially of industry, is one of the most important obstacles to the successful opera tion of the undertaking. In the cities es pecially-, all the freedmen who Rock in from the plantations are anxious to attend, but the scarcity of labor and the necessities arising from the universal poverty and des titution of the entire community, prevent them from being regular in attendance. Even the children are required to work, and can find no leisure for study except within the school hours. Another serious drawback is the floating character of the Population, and the absolute necessity of engaging every suitable person for agricul tural purposes. The industrious pupil is, of course, generally the most valuable laborer, and can hardly be spared, where it is so important to supply the wants arising from the neglect and ravages consequent on the war. In many places absolute starva tion threatens the community hi the approaching winter, and all availa ble labor is most wisely employed in making every possible provisioh against the terrible prospect. The most zealous advocates of education must waive its Otiras before the pressing requirement of the times, and confess that industrial or. ganization, and at least a provision for the bare necessities of life, is the first duty of the moment, and the schools must patiently avail themselves of the limited opporturo ties of the present, while awaiting a wider field of usefulness in the Mare, In the larger cities, the pupils frequently remain only a few days, until they are provided with employment ; but the ear nestness and zeal exhibited by these casual visitants is not only cheering to the . teach ers, and promising for the better opportu nities expected in the future, but even produce striking results, particularly in the minor morals of deportment. The careless habits induced by slavery, especially the ' general disregard of the cleanliness of per son and tidiness in dress, require the first correction ; and the natural taste and ca pacity of the race is in no respect more strikingly shown than in their ready adop tion of better and neater customs. In improved circumstances and under more complete orpinization, there is every reason to believe that the educational move- ment will progress with great rapidity, and in its turn react must favorably on those new conditions of the race which have allowed the inauguration of the system. The obligations of freedom, the require ments of citizenship and all the details that must regulate conduct in the new and un expected position that the freedmen are called upon to fill, can be most 'efficiently inculcated by the schoolmaster ; while in dustry, economy and general wisdom in the administration of the affairs of their own business and life, will be incidentally taught by_ prudent leader, with the necessarry lessons in the alphabet of that perhaps less important branch of education—the reading and writing that is to be the especial sub ject of his consideration. Minnesota "to the Rosen!” The Minnesota Copperheads recently met in State Convention and adopted resolutions, of which the following is the substance : 1. Glad we're out of the war, now try to con ciliate the rebels. s. Deplore Mr. Lincoln's death, but glad Mr. Johnson has recognized the sovereignty of the South. We agree to support bim as long as he opposes the negro. 3. If the ballot be given to the negro, we'll exterminate him. 4. Slavery having been abolished in spite of us, we are glad of it. 5. We desire for Jeff Davis a habeas corpus. We think the assassins ought to have been tried before the same jury that acquitted Miss Harris. We favor free discussion by the rebels in Tennessee, and denounce the President as a tyrant, for Setting aside the Richmond elec tions. lnereas, We owe three thousand millions; and whereas, in order toborrow.it, we agreed not to tax it; therefore, 6. Resolved, That the most economical course for those who don't own any bonds, is to tax thew, in order to vindicate their rights from the privileged classes. 7. In order that the Southern and Demo cratic States may repudiate, let the internal revenue be collected by the States. R. We'll tax the Government bonds, anyhow, in order to equalize property. 9. The Democracy demands that the market for Western produce be extended, by - breaking down Eastern manufacturers, and converting them all into farmers. 10. We are opposed to the Republican party 'Monopolizing all the ministers, as an oppreS sive union of Church and State. - - 11. If we let the negroes vote they will all come to Minnesota, and there will be the -- to pay generally. 12. Keep on killing the Indians. 13. If Congress won't provide for the Minne sota soldiers, Minnesota may , . 14. The soldiers are inviteo to vote ourticket. It was then stated that, as none of the candi dates would be elected, a collection would be taken up to pay for lights and fuel. The hat was accordingly passed round, under pressure of which the Convention adjourned, without making its nominations. It is to be hoped, for the bat:molly of the Minnesota "Democracy," that the subject of collection will not be men tioned at their next Convention—should an other oeeur.—Chiecroo Tribune. We Most Carry Montgomery County. We have upon our ticket the names Of four soldiers who have gallantly served their coun try during three years and more of conflict. They represent four different regiments, whose ranks were recruited from Montgomery county, and whose front in the hottest and most terrible battles of the war were part of the great bulwark which defended the fire sides of Montgomery county from invasion, rapine, and destruction. Colonel McClenna,n and the 138th, Lieut. Moore and the Ist Penn sylvania Cavalry Lieut. Weand and the An derson Cavalry, Capt. Owen and the 51st Itegt. ment.. have performed some of the most dis t-hip/Shed services of the whole war, for which their telluvr citinena are indebted to them in a degree that they can only partially repay. ()an any voter in Montgomery county cast his ballot against these heroes? Is there a single man in the county who can "go back" so basely on his defenders and protectors It seems hard to believe that they will not be elected by a unanimous vote. The other candidates on the ticket are popu lar and well-known gentlemen, whose resi dence among their fellow-citizens has com manded respect and friendship. They go fear lessly on the record, and we claim for them the suirrages of the people of our county. They will make capable, intelligent, and faith ful public servants. And, more than this, our ticket is headed by a hero, a citizen of Montgomery county, born here, bred here, identified with us, known to all our people, whose name and fame as a gallant officer and a brave man are now common to the whole nation. General Hart ranft cannot be defeated in Montgomery county. It is not possible: No people m any age have ever exhibited such a mean and de spicable ingratitude as that would be, if in this county, the hero of Fort Steadman, our own follow-citizen should be voted into a minority by his brethren. We repeat, such a thin is not possible—we must, we will carry Mont gomeryy county. Let us remember what we have already done in previous conflicts. When the disunion wave of 1862 swept over the country, electing Sey mour of New York. and Parker of New Jersey, Montgomery county gavel,64Smajority against us. This was very heavy, and we reduced it in 1863 to 1,251, nearly four hundred votes. Last fall we again reduced it two hundred votes. This fall we shall not only reduce it, but re. verse it. Citizens of Montgomery county, you are summoned to the work, from this day to the second Tuesday of October. it is time to take up your arms in the conflict. Already our county enjoys an enviable distinction for her faithfulness to the Union and the Government. In no other Opposition county in Pennsylva nia has the majority against us, in the elec tions of the last two years, been reduced, but all have been Increased. iterks, Northampton, York, and other counties have been adding to their disunion majorities, while we have been taking from ours. There is no little encour agement in this, for it shows that we have courage and the right spirit. Led as we are at this election, how can we fail of success 7 Let us be content with no bare majority. Every candidate on our county ticket must be triumphantly elected, and the name that heads our State ticket should entirely distance its competitor. No other result will be doing our duty. Strip, then, for the conflict—the drums beat —the bugles sound.—Montgomery Semi- Weekly Herald. The Ketchum Frauds. The losers by the recent defalcation have not - yet made out the complete statement of their losses. Mr. Charles Graham, however, has positively ascertained that the liabilities imposed upon him by the flight of young Ref chum will not exceed One million live hun dred thousand dollsrs, of which nine hundred and fifty thousand dollars are in forged gold checks. - - - The whereabouts of the defaulter is as yet unknown, and it does not seem as if search were being made for him. It is reported that Superintendent Kennedy was called upon, but On inquiry being made it was pretty clearly ascertained that no detective officers aro on his track. Thus stands the ease at present, and it is very doubtful that any further de. velopmeuts will be made likely to appease the mental hunger of the community. WHEF.EAIIOUTS OF YOUNG KETCHUM The following rather unreliable note came to the Herald onion in an envelope directed to the editor isZLW 37011 K, August 21.--MH. KETCHUM—Sir : Your son is secreted in a little shanty upon the Bloomingdale road, and if you will give me a suitable reward I will tell you where he is. ANONYMOUS. , P. B,—l will know if you comply with iny wishes by publishing the same hi the Herald. A TRAVELLING. FRAtID.—The following is a description of the present appearance of the house in which Andrew Johnson resided when a tailor 'L Two magnificent weeping willows still stand in front of the building, with the follow ing inscription: A Johnson, Tailor. Cutting done to order at ali times, and neat fits made, or no pay. By close attention to business he hopes to merit a liberal patronage from his old customers.'" ,The above is going , the rounds now for a second time within three months; and may as well be nailed right here, Andrew Johnson has been in public life as member of Gonor ess, Governor, Senator, and now President', con tinuously tor twenty.five years. He may have made a Texas editor's brother his wedding coat thirty years ago, (as another travelling paragraph has it) but his later business has been making straight jackets for that Texas editor's friends. inn Johnson's residehee has been at Greenville, Tenn., since 182.7. Is it reasonable to suppose that in all the period of his public life "that sign" has worn its colors in the eyes of men? If, indeed, it was there live years ago, wouldn't some strolling band of rebels have used it to kindle a mess lire? The Greenville New Era in a late inue, speaking of its distin.guished townsman, says that "some of our Older residents may re member the modest sign,” etc. Evidently they "don't see it" now.—Chicage Tribune. linf AREA - IMB WiLL 81 A HANBUito The :Hamburg litlrsea-Halle gives the follow• log particulars of the will of Carl Heine, the great Hamburg banker, who died worth, it is supposed, about three millions sterling. lie leaves £OOO to Hamburg and Altona poor; £30,- 1100 to charitable institutions in Hamburg ; *OO to ellaritabie institutions in Faris; ms,eoo `to the f.rt Gallery in Hamburg, and suing Vary - ing from £370 to £3,000 to his Clerks.

" What business can I go into totnake money Ile told me to go in to the oil business and I would succeed very laugh]—the questions were a continu ation of each othenbut they were not answered in the etturge in which they were written ; the first question was, "Am I a married man, and if so, when married, and by whom?

[Laughter.] Went back to him two or three times after, and the spirits were not in condition ; had an interview with him afterwards; wrote the , questions and put them in envelopes; took a friend with me as a witness; three questions were written in a handwriting not my own; lie threw out the three anii said they were not my own ; the answers to the others were perti nent; in response to my questions about Miss Stephens he said I would marry a Mrs. Lot—l forget her name ; asked him how he could say that when he previously said I would marry Miss Stephens; he replied if I looked into the New York papers I would see that Miss Stephens had married a colonel ; did look into the New York papers and found nothing of the kind. [Laughter.' The colonel's wife had become a widow m two months. [Renewed laughter.] In answer to another question he said positively I would marry the colonel's widow on the 13th of December, lalia; defen dant also practised the writing on his arm; first, wrote the names on a paper, then on his arm, A, Kearney and A. Leonard ; he Said the names were not written in full; they were Catharine A. Kearney . and Mary A. Leonard, Which he wrote on his arm in full; he then wrote the name of my deceased wife; they were all correct ; the writings were coarse, extend ing all the way from the elbow nearly to the wrist; the writing was about the color of , roue. —a dull red ; I tried to rub it out but couid. not ; the skin did not appear to be broken.

Mr. Cook. Well, you mean 3. , 01.1r disappoint ment about the marriage ; there ate often dis appointments in such affairs ; you ought to be glad of pour escape. [Laughter.] Mr. Look here read from the witness' de positions before the commissioner about the writing on the arm, where some Slight and un important diserepaliCY anpeared. Witness then testified that as far as he could see there was no sleight of hand in the matter. To the District Attorney. I don't say of my self that the spirit answered Me; defendant told me so. To Mr. Cook. Will not swear that the spirit did not answer me. To the District Attorney. To a question, on my first visit, the defendant answered cor rectly, that my little boy, Willie, was sick.

Ilibbarti objected to the question, as the Wit ness, not being an expert, could not draw a Question allowed, mid witness resumed.—Profes sor Bligh took the envelopes from me, examined them, and manipulated them; one of them dropped out, when the Professor asked me to pick It up and say whether that was the iftiestion to the answer already given; it was; I did trot see him open the envelopes; on one occasion, on calling at de fendant-6 rooms, was told that the spirits would not work; on untidier occasion went with air.

To the District. Attorney. When Professor Blidh asked me if that Vial the answer in the dropped eh velepe he had already answered it. The kistrlet Attorney submitted to the court that now was the Dine in which the handbill respecting Colchester's performances 'multi be put In evi dence. Mr. Hibbard contended that It was inadmissible. I The court decided that the production of the hand ' bill was unnecessary. A recess was then_ taken to half-past two o'clock.

Objection sustained for the present, and witness resumed—Have practised the trick of opening the envelopes repeatedly; irnaglOC a number of enve lopes in a hat; they are shaken up; in doing so, it Is an easy matter to pass one envelope up his sleeve; he draws another envelope Dom the top, and lays it on his lap; he now has two envelopes; be then drawS his kntts through an envelope, takes out the ques tion, glances over it, throws it and the answer to the question, and says "There Is your question, sir, and here is your answer," and he does one after the other; nave done the same thing often. and have references , iu my pocket to dhow what t have done; PRESS.-PRILADELPHIK, TatTRSDA.Y, AUGUST 24, 1866. the rappings 'are done by blaring the Centrelof the right loot to the table, and drawing it rapidly across it, and I am ready to do so now; have produced rappings 'without a table, by mechanical appli ances, but not by manual. Cross-examined. — First made the acquaintance of Mr. Colchester at the National Hotel, some time in May or 'June; ant past tweniy-two years: have given performances all throngh America, except the Southern States; never gave a perfOrmance as a spiritualist in Witshington; never gave such a performance with my wife: attempted to expose spiritualism in Washington with my wife, and did 60; did not fail; from there went to Baltimore: from there to Philadelphia, Wheeling, Harrisburg. New York, Boston. &C.. and finally turned up 111 Rochester; MS m Rochester about ion days before I mud, the ampiaintanee of defendant; was per forming there: was well patronized. The Court ruled this course of examination out of order, when Mr. Cook said he wished to show that there was a feeling , of Jealousy on the part of wit ness against Colc hester, because the latter did a better laniness than lie. Witness resumed.—Colchester first commenced the conversation about the copartnership: he said if witness and Ills wife and Mrs, t would ,i o in him they could rake hp the whole country, and make money at Syracuse, Niagara Falls, `dm atoga, and so forth. Witness repeated tile evidence lie had - given in his direct examination of the parts he and his wife and Mrs. Haskett were to be taught. Mr. Col chester, he continued, taught me some of the things I have spoken of. .At the request of counsel, the witness exhibited his arm, and showed that the wri ting had disappeared. Witness. What do you want me to write? Mr. Cook. I want you to write a name I will write on a piece of paper. Witness. I aid not come here to perform; I will do what Mr. Colchester did; lie did not perform in a crowded bail. (Witness then wrote on his UM.) Mr. Cook.

All that was proven was that some in dividuals had private interviews with the defen. dant, Take, for instance, the pretended miracles of the Roman Catholic Church, assuming them to be pretended, for argument's sake; coulld they be assumed to be public exhibitions? He contended there was DO case for the jury. Mr. Dart assumed that a public show . did not de pend upon the number of persons attending it, but whether it was open to the public. The Court stated the law on the subject, showing that it referred to all public shows given for fee or reward. Mr. Dart, in reply to an observation from Mr. Hibbard, to the effect that fortune-tellers may as well be required to take out licenses, observed that, if .there was anything In the law describing defendant's calling, as the opposing counsel re - quireS, it should be given to Barnum. For his part, he did not see it. Some further argument took place, which was closed by the Court deciding that the case should go the jury. MR, HIBBARD OPENS FOR THE DEFENCE. - - - Mr. • Hibbard, in opening foes:the defence, said it was not expected that he should open the case for the defence; that bad been left to his associate, who was moreftunillar with the Gale, bat Mr. Cook was too unwell to flO so. The peculiar nature or the statute under which the defendant was being tried threw on the Government the onus of proving that the defendant's performances were done by sleight of-hand. He thought he could claim, when the ease was left in the hands of the jury, that there had been a failure to prove that Mr. Colchester's feats were performed by dexterity or sleight of hand. EVeli if the jury should be satisfied that the feats were performed by anything in Mr. Col chester himself through any chemical agent, and not by sleight of hand, the defendant must be ac quitted. ARGUMENTS OF TIIE COURT. AND COUNSEL. Judge J. Chumesew was the iirrt witness called for the defence, upon which an argument arose be tween the District Attorney and ltr. Ilibbard—the former contending that the witnesa_must confine himself to the particular feats descried In the evi dence for the prosecution: to which the latter re plied that the evidence for the defence must embrace the general character of the performances ' and not' be confined to - part icular instances, just as an ex pert, on being called to testify to the working of a steam engine. would extend his tystimony to the general principles ou which steam engines work, and would not be required to confine himself to the particular engine in question. - The court adjudged that the counsel for the prose cution had to prove that the feats were performed by sleight of hand; but that he had failed to show how they had been performed. In fact, the question seemed to be whether the preAeeution had to sustain the iinFdati of proof, or the dtfendlint to disprove the charge, that he. per formed by sleight of hand. The discussion took a philological turn, in the course of which the court allowed what had been advanced by the District At torney—that the meaning of sleight of hand Was not confined to manipulation, but referred also to any act of physical exertion. Judge OHMWNW then deposed that he knew Col chester at Rochester; be then resided at the Na tioual Hotel; was induced by a clerk aids court to go with him to defendant's rooms; at the sugges tion of the clerk, wrote six questions, referrin to the calendar of the court, on thick paper, width he placed in an envelope; on getting there be produced the questions, and laid them on the table; at de fendant's request, wrote the names of deceased friends on separate papers, which .Colchester Colchester took in his hands, and mixed them up; at Colchester's request, went to another part of the room, and wrote the name of another deceased friend; on re approaching the table, defendant said, I see two large A's on your forehead ; on handing him the paper, he pronounced the name of Al bert Aldridge, Which was correct; . think, but cannot swear, that the paper was in my hand, and not on the table, when defendant said he taw the last two A's; he then took up each of the other papers, with the questions, one by one, drew them through his lingers, and-wrote the an swers immediately; at my request he rolled up his sleeve, when one of the names appeared on his arm; think two names appeared; visited defendant sub sequently in company with two others; we were all allowed to sli down together; did not pay much at. tention that time; simply went at the request ofhlr. Jones and Mr. Perr defendant wrote the names of each gentleman's friends on his arm; defendant told Jones he saw two spades on his forehead; this was in reference to a question that Mr. Jones asked him about a potato digger he had invented: he also answered Mr. Terry's question; did not discover any slieght of hand or Jugglery. c ro ss.ex t unia t d wart--Wrote the name, Albert Aldridge, hi us large hand; Mil satisfied that lie touched ascii paper with the questions, before answering them. 5111.

Colchester live or six years; went to defendant's recess and wrote live questions about a patent stove, whether it would be Siteeess-. ful; immediately on seeing use he said, "I see a - stove over your heads" said to him, "That's a cu rious place for a stove;" he took my questions from - me; wrote a name at his request; did so, when lie took the paper stud threw it out of the window in stantly, and answered me questions correctly; a son of mine engaged in the oil business visited him with me, anti be answered his qoestione about oil sails , factorily: my son then wrote the name of Lincoln, when defendant rolled up his sleeve and the name appeared on his arm In red letters; I can tell you about a dozen similar instances; was always scepti cal at that time, and kept a close watch over defend ant, but found out nothing; the questions all lay on the table when they were answered; I kept my eye on them the whole tinsel there were none of them opened; be wrote the answers as fast as touchede them; defendant's hands were on the 1711110 when be wrote the name on ills arm; did not see him do the writing. Witness went on to say something about a little girl in his family, a spiritual medium, who told him she bad written on her arms the words, "Learn to form the acquaintance of Mr. Burtis;" on apether occasion she telt something like a warm breath on her arm, and immediately after then words appeared: " Now, I lay me down to sleep Guardian angels guard my he ' d." On another oceasslon the Freepdason's square and compass appeared in white characters on her arm; remember When spiritualism appeared first in Rochester: the Fishes and the Poxes. were the me diums. [Laughter.] Shall 1 tell you, Mr. Dart, what 1 nave experienced? [Laughter.) Mrs. Fish was a Fox; she married Mr. Fish. [Laughter.] The testimony of this witness caused considera ble merriment, from Ids eagerness to give volun tary testimony to irrelevant facts. In the course of cross-examination he said that at the request of de- Ottniapt, he - wrote the shames of about three de ceased persons on pieces of ,alter, which he threw on the table, and Immediately defendant rolled up his sleeve, when John Burt's, the name of his de ceased father. appeared on it. The writing, he said, was on the right arm, between the elbow and the wrist. In concluion, the old gentleman said lie could tell a great deal more; he would do so for the cause. us spiritualism was his religion. [Loud laughter.] - - PROFESSOR HAHN'S TESTIMONY.

FRAUD IN NEW YORK. The Culprit Arrested —lre Confesses, and the Property is Recovered A Lady in the Case. • (From the New York papers of yesterday.} One of the most remarkable cases of crime that ever transpired in this city was partially developed yesterday afternoon, and involves two distinct cases of forgery, by means of which the perpetrator obtained a draft and bonds to the amount of nearly 1204,000. It appears from the facts, as far as they have transpired, that some ten days ago a man thirty-two years of age, a carpenter by trade, who had been a soldier in the array, and giv. log his name as George, Gladwin, called at the post-office In New Haven, Connecticut and asked the clerk for the letters of Mr.Trow bridge, a gentleman doing business at No. 19 Long Wharf, in that City. The clerk, believing that the: applicant was duly =powered to receive the letters, deliv ered them to Win. Among the mail matter was a draft drawn on the Manhattan Company of this city by Messrs. Burdick, Frisbee, A Co., brokers, No. 93 Wall street, for 1.3,066.79, paya ble to the order of Mr. Trowbridge, and bear ing date August 12,1865. That night or on the following morning Cladwin started for this city, bringing with him a woman whom he is pleased to call " Emma," and took rooms at the St. Nicholas Hotel. Glaclwin deposited the draft he had taken from the letter of Mr. Trowbridge in the hotel safe for safe keeping, but withdrew it the next day, and_proceeded to the jewelry establishment of Mr. Thomas Killipatriek, corner of Broadway and Duane street, and asked to look at some jewelry. He finally selected two beautiful gold watches and chains, a pearl set, diamond breastpin, ring, etc., valued in all at twelve hundred dol /net's, in payment of which he offered the draft in question, or, if Mr. Kirkpatrick preferred, he could take his pay from some railroad bonds, which Gladwin exhibited. Mr. Kirkpat riek made inquiry concerning the draft, and, becoming satisfied that it was genuine, ac cepted it, and gave Gladwin the difference be tween the amount of the purchase and the face of the draft. Mr. Kirkpatrick deposited the draft in his bank for collection, The Bank of the Manhattan Company subse quently pronounced the endorsement of ".R. Trowbridge" on the back of the draft to be a forgery. One of the bank officers immediately called on Captain Jourdan, of the Sixth pre cinct, and imparted to him such information concerning the matter as was in his possea- Mon. The Captain soon obtained a minute de.. scription of Gladwin, and hearing that he had returned to New Haven last Thursday, with his travelling companion, Emma, despatched Officer Wooldridgeafter him. On reaehillq hew Haven Detective Wool dridge carefu ly proceeded with the business lie had in hand, and learned that Gladwin had offered for sale a watch to a man named Brad ley, with whom he was on intimate terms. A strict watch was keppt on Gladwin's boarding house, and on Monday evening Officer Wool dridge succeeded in arresting him, and finding in his possession all the jewelry he had Ob tained from Mr. Kirkpatrick. The prisoner was placed on board the first train for New York yesterday morning, and arrived here in the afternoon. In a conversation with Captain Jourdan, the prisoner stated that' lie had found the draft, with seven 11,000 bonds of the Tiffin and Fort Wayne Railroad Company, and other papers, in Broadway, and bad left the bonds at the store of Messrs. Kohlsat Brothers, corner of Broadway and Reade street, till he should call for them. Thee prisoner also confessed to forging the name of Mr. Trowbridge on the back of the draft. Of course the Captain did not believe that part of the prisoner's story where he stated that he had found the draft and bonds in the street, and intimated in all unmistakable manner that it was useless to attempt to deceive him, as he knew the whole truth of the matter. This Monght the accused to terms, and he frankly confessed that he had obtained two hundred and four thousand dollars worth of the Tiffin and Fort Wayne Railroad Company's bonds from the safe in the St. Nicholas hotel, without the knowledge of the hotel proprie tors or any of the clerks. The plan adopted by Gladwin to possess himself of the bonds, and that, too, without exciting the snatiieiOft of the persons having charge of the safe, shows him to be an expert in this line of busi ness. As the draft which Gladwin had deposited in the safe was returned to him he saw a large package in the iron receptacle addressed to Aaron Sihith, and carefully noted the hand writing on the package. In giving a receipt for the draft, Gladwin again saw the signa ture of Mr. Smith on the receipt book. This operation of depositing and withdrawing the draft from the safe was repeated several times by Gladwin, and after having become familiar with smith's style of writing, the ac cused took some blank cards and practised writing "Aaron Smith" on them till it was al most a fac simile of the genuine. This being accomplished, Gladwin boldly ap proached the safe and asked for Aaron Smith's package. The clerk, not suspecting anything wrong, delivered it to him, when he gave a re ceipt an the DOM of Aaron Smith, and Walked away with the bonds„ which he deposited else where. These•facts having been obtained by Captain Jourdanl he sought still further infor mation concerning the whereabouts of the bonds, and succeeded in learning where the prisoner had left them. Accordingly, yester day afternoon the bonds, which belonged to numerous parties, were recovered and taken possession of by Captain Jourdan. Gladwin,whose appearance is far from being prepossessing,is in prison awaiting a formal complaint,.which, it is expected, will be pre ferred against lion this morning before Jus tice Hogan. • Another singular circumstance connected with this ease is the fact that the clerks of the St. Nicholas Rotel had not been made aware of the alarming mistake committed by them in delivering the bonds to the wrongman till informed of their felonious abstraction from the safe, by Captain Jourdan, yesterday after noon. They seemed to think it impossible that such an error wild have occurred.. The Phoenix Bank Benaraiion. CABE OF GENEVIEVE LYON'S AID BROWN AGAIN POSTPONED. Genevieve Lyons and Charles Brown, with their counsel, Judge Stuart, were before Jus tice Ledwith, at the Jefferson Market Police Court, yesterday afternoon at two o'clock. A decision in their case was to be Oven at that hour. Mr. McKeon, counsel for the bank, was not present. . Justice Ledwith read a letter from Mr. McKeon stating that in consequence of urgent business it - was impossible for him to attend or hand in the additional points and authori ties of which he spoke onWonday. Ile there fore requested a postponement of the case un ill twelve or one o'clock to-day. .Judge Stuart remarked that Mr. McKeon's application was, to say the least, very ungra cious.

FINANCIAL AND COMIIERCIAL, The era following the war has 'witnessed the immediate resumption of activity in projected railroad enterprises which the outbreak of the rebellion interrupted, and the speedy repair of those in the rebellious States that were crippled and destroyed by the progress of hos tilities. Of new railroad enterprises, the Pa-, elfin Railroad takes the lead, and is too often referred to to need special mention at this time. The very complete system of railway com munications east and west has not only de terred capital from seeking fresh investment or the kind in rival lines, but has suggested lateral connections by lines running north and south, which are very numerously engaging the attention of capitalists. Beginning in the east or middle section of the country, there is a MOYetilelo for a railroad spur southward from the Baltimore and Ohio through Western Virginia into East Ten nessee. At Cincinnati a parallel scheme is under discussion—the projected road from the Kentucky Central to Knoxville—a most im portant link long needed between the railway system of the Gulf States and that of the West—an avenue of trade and travel of value to the markets and people of both great sec tions. The stock market was without its usual activity yesterday morning, and we have to note a general Wit of speculative Spirit GO vernment bonds were selling to a moderate degree, notwithstanding a decline in both dye twenties and seven-thirties. The latter were in fair demand, at the commencement of the day, at 99%, but in the afternoon a sale was re ported at the Public Board as low as ON. It was, however, a small lot, and was probably disposed of under the pressure of immediate want. There is no change to record in State securities. A decline of a fraction was °stab- lished by tile sales of City sixes, both new and municipals. One lot of new brought 91%, but I a subsequent sale was at 91. The market for I company bonds is devoid of animation. Cam den and Amboy mortgage sixes sold at 99%, and several lots of first mortgage Pennsylvania Railroad bonds brought 104. Pittsburg dyes were steady at 72. For railroad shares the de. mend continues light. Pennsylvania Railroad was steady at last figures. Camden and Amboy was 1 better, and Reading sold up to 51% at the cioso, With the exception of Lehigh Valley, which brought 65, there were Be saleg of rail. road stocks ; 59 was bid for Norristown ; 55 for Minehill ; 24 for North Pennsylvania; 12% for Catawissa common, and 24% for preferred do. The oil stocks Are again very dull, and prices Still tend dOWnward. The only sale of passen ger railroad stock was Union, at 24.

Of these, two have a capacity of a million and a quarter each ; the lowest is 75,000 bushels. The business in produce shows a slight falling off, in nearly every instance, from the figures of the year preceding. The receipts of flour during the year amounted to 1,170,272 barrels, against 1.424,055 barrels receiv ed during the preceding year. The total ship ments of flour during the same year amounted to 1,287,545 barrels, against 1,507,816 barrels in the year 1863-4. These statistics show a slight decrease in the trade for the past year, due chiefly to the unsettled state of the markets, and the fluctuations in gold, as well as to the high rates of freights that ruled after the close of navigation. The manufacture of highwines in this city during the year 1861 amounted to only 58,850 barrels, equal to 8,498,345 gallons. This shewe a material decrease as eumpai?4 with 1863; but it is due entirely to the passage of the tax law by Congress, which enabled holders of stocks to sell at lower prices than 'the manufacturers could furnish them for. • The Boston DM, pf Monday, says ; Money continues in pretty tiood demand at the banks and in the street. The supply is a little short, compared with what it was last week, but borrowers in good standing are able to get loans on satisfactory collaterals, at six per cent., on call, in moat cases, with occa sional exceptions at seven and six and a half. Lenders am unusually particular in their se lections of eollaterals, and if they are at all doubtful, they require wide margins to guard against depreciation. Discounts are more ac tive, and the supply of desirable paper has in creased. Short dates arc taken by the banks, and the best three and four months' names are passed outside at seven and a half and eight per cent., while the range for the lower grades is froth. nine to twelve, according to strength and amounts, and whether endorsed or single, The New York Post, of last evening, says: The chief topics in Wall street arc the con tinually increasing ease in money, the firm ness of Ciovernrnent securities, and the ad yanciing price of the best railroad shares. Gold is quiet at 143%@143X. The loan market is easy at six per cent. Commercial paper is scarce, and passes at UP, Money has been offered to-day at five. The stock market opened dull but firm.
