- which be claimed was the best to be found in
this vicinity.
Mr. S. G. napless read a letter from Dr.
Twaddell, who is now in Europe, upon the
cattle disease now raging there. It had broken
out in the London dairies, and is estimated
that cattle valued at X. 10,000 sterling have died
.ca' it in one day. The disease is said to be
spreading, and all plans to stay its progress
have failed.
Dr. McClure made a statement relative to
the disease, in which he said that it was a con
tagious typhus of the ox and Russian steppe
disease. It is a disease or the skin and hair,
and may be communicated by . the importation
of bides, horns, hoofs, and hair of cattle that
have died of it.
A motion was made that the letter of Dr.
Twaddle betranscribed and transmitted to the
- Department of Agriculture, with a recommen
dation that the importation of cattle from the
infected districts be prohibited. Agreed to.

"THE LATE FATAL RAILROAD ACCIDENT.
+—Yesterday morning, Coroner Taylor com-
Meuced au investigation of the circumstances
- which led to the death of Anna Louisa Dutton,
vim was 'ailed by a railway accident on Sat
in day last. Several witnessees were examined,
who all testified that they beard the bell of
the locomotive ring. The father of the child,
qtr. Dutton, said that he heard the bell, but
thought it was the arsenal bell, and that, fur
thermore, Le was in the wagon nauffied up in
his overcoat. The morning was dark and
rainy, mid it was difficult to distinguish ob
jects. A watchman takes post at the crossing
at sia O'ClOelt in the morning, and remains
'until all the day trains have run. The acci
dent, however, happened at live o'clock in the
morning. The jury find, as their verdict, that
_Anna Louisa Dutton came to her death by be
ing over by enaine. No. 215 of the rennsyl
v-Zi., m.ii.road Company, near the arsenal, on
the 'morning of September 2, 1555. From the
evidence elicited, it appears that the ordinary
:signals were given, viz ; Blowing the whistle
and ringingthe bell ; but we believe that the
liennsylvama Railroad Company are censura
ble in sot having a watchman at this crossing
during ;he passage of every train.
FUNERAL OF LIEUTENANT ITENDEaso - ii.
—Amid the peaceful shades of Woodland Ce
metery, the remains of the late Lieutenant
llenderson were consigned to the tomb
yesterday afternoon. His funeral was attend
ed by the police generally, and the Masons, of
which fraternity he was a member. By his
clt.ath, three small children are left parent
less ; their mother having died a year or two
ego. It was a sad picture, indeed; to witness
these children, taking the last look upon the
lace of one who was a kind father to them.
There was not a dry eye within that chamber
of death. Tears coursed their w,Ly down the
maniy cheeks of °dicers, whose official duties
lway harden rather than soften the heart.
'ere is no home without a father or mother.
The world then becomes a, wilderness to the
bereaved little 0n0.4; Oven though the wind
be tempered to the:shorn lamb.

The only witness examined was Fire Mar-
- shat A. .1%. .1 - 11a , :kburn, who said that at the
-Corner of Sixth street and Girard avenue is a

Meetings had adjourned, and the janitor was
about closing the hall, he thought he heard a

ney, who greeted the janitor with menaces,
and threatened to throw him off the roof. The
latter got down stairs and removed the lad
der, thus cutting off the retreat of the party
above. The janitor then went to obtain the
assistance of some persons to see that the man
on the roof did not escape while he went for
an officer. On his return with a policeman he

roof had been allowed to COMO down and to
escape. He had threatened to have sattsfac

RICK AFFAIR AT TRH EXPENSE OF THDEFICEDEiZT
OFFICERS-" DEAD lIICAT."
An arrest was madeyesterday afternoon of
an individual who had been for a number of
years attached to the detective force of the
city. He had leave to retire from that depart"
ment months ago, but since that time he has
been doing- police business independently.
Another individual formerly a United States
officer, who retired into private life eight
months ago, acted in concert with him, in run
ning the independent line. These two men
were always regarded as shrewd in pollee
transactions, and in their day - made some
im
portant arrests. It is alleged that a short time
since they " dropped" on a manufacturer in
York county, whom they charged with Conn
terfeitingtnited. States stamps or trade marks:
The accused individual had a pretty large
manufacturing establishment, and when the
officers appeared and made their business
known, he was greatly frightened. Evidently
some one bad informed on him. His guilt
seemed almost self-confessed, and he shud
dered at the idea of being arraigned before a
court of the United States, He desired to know
whether the matter could not be stpppedi 1 . , an
exposure," said he,"would break lifm up in his
business, root and branch." The two inde
pendent officers had him "foul." They con
ferred together, and presently, the one who
was arrested yesterday, is alleged to have 1." -
posed that for the sum of $5OO the subject could
be dropped.
The proprietor, it is further alleged, gladly
availed himself of the proposition, and the
sum of money named changed hands. The
two officers went their way rejoicing, eon
soling themselves, no doubt, with the thought
that they had done a big day's work.
No sooner had they departed than all evi
dence of the alleged infraction of the law was
destroyed. Certain stamps and papers were
committed to the dames, and dies were broken,
so the story goes. The officers; however, did
not obtain any points of material, evidence to
warrant a conviction in ease they carried the
affair to court, and, therefore, whatever may
be said of the manufacturer, he is entitled to
the charity of the law, that all men are inno
cent until proved guilty. Heat once proceeded
to the nearest justice of the peace in York
county, and bad the twO men' arrested for
extorting money from him on afraudident and
false charge. It was necessary for the officers
of the law to act promptly as possible, sO as to
arrest the accused before the arrival of the
train of cars. They were overhauled before
veaehing the depot, A sort of scouting party
went after them, on their flanks. and in their
rear. Escape was impossible. They saw the
officers coming. They observed the manufac
turer, also. Here they guessed exactly what
they were after. They knew the five hundred
dollars would be taken from them by the pro
cess known in police parlance as " stripping,"
The holder of the money secreted it under a
scone, on the road side, near the turn of the
highway. In doing so he was discovered by a
brother of the manufacturer, who came in on
the right flank.
The two men were taken into custody, and
the ease was heard before the justice of the
peace. The prisoners denied having received
any money, and submitted themselves to be
searched. Of course it was not found upon
them. Bail was finally entered for them,' ind
then they proceeded to the stone on the road
side to get the money.
Upon removing the stone, lo l it was gone.
"A dead beat I" exclaimed one of the dis
comfited officials.
Each looked at the other, but the matter
was too serious to laugh about. The hollow
in the earth, formed by the big stone, was a
grave subject for their contemplation.
The story is that the brother of the manufac
turer, who came in on the right flank, as above
stated. reuscr:cd the deposit, and now holds it
as crieenee of the identical money paid over
es above stated. The arrest was made yester
day, on a bail-piece taken out in the Court in
York county.

the United States army testified that he went
to a. Clothing store on 'Market street to pur
chase some clothing. Be laid off hia coat, snd
was trying on a new one, when his attention
was caned to his pocket-book having been

Reserve Officer Parker arrested the accused

James Rieh saw the prisoner take the pock

away and he picked it up. ' The pocket-book
was produced in court, containing a check for

ABOUT A BOAT
Edward Carr was charged with the larceny

_Mr. Mann said it had been decided, by a bare
majority of judges in England, that to take a
man's property for the purpose of maliciously
destroying , it was larceny. That decision was
hardly accepted in this country, and he would
abandon the bill and send up another one for
malicious mischief.

Judge Ludlow said to Harper: I am about
to do a thing that I have never done before in
this court. I have always thought there was
always some hope for reformation by sending
a boy of your age to the House of Refuge. This
is the second time during this term that my
attention has been called to boys deliberately ,
setting up a plan to commit burglary. It a boy
is old enough to deliberately plan a burglary
and enter the house of a citizen at 2 o'clock in
the morning and rob it, then he is old enough
to conform to the requirements of the law.
Boys who commit felony in the faux° need
not expect to be sent to the House oMlefuge,
but to the penitentiary. The sentence of tie

separate and solitary confinement in the East
ern Penitentiary for two years.

Judge Ludlow announced that there were
eighty-six pergotig in eonlinornent in the Intl
of this county against whom no return had
been made, according to law, to the District
Attorney by the the aldermen or committing
magistrates. Unless the returns were made
by Monday next, the aldermen who have of
fended would be proaecuted under the act of
Assembly.
STRAZIGII CONDUCT OF A rl;Osxclrron
Mr. Mann now took - upa bill charging Hugh
McDonald with keeping a disorderly house.
None of the witnesses were present, and the
defendant said he had twenty-six witnesses in
corn. The District Attorney found the name
K u no Blackburn upon the bill, and
remarked there must lie something in the
case, and directed an officer to go for the Fire
Marshal. Before the latter gentleman arrived,
how ever, W. J. Warren approached the bar, in
*vapid manner, and. in an excited voice, said :
")our honor 1 can tell you why this man
ain't tried! J heard him say that be gave Bill
Mann's son money to keep it off, and lie ilaca
it with Lew Cassidy. Ile said he had a ease
put off last week in the same manner. I asked
dodge Ludlow. You cannot make suck
elmrgoa here, unleao ycu do so under oath.
Mr. Warren. Give me a Bible and Pll swear
to it.
. .
The court directed him to be sworn, which
was done.
The. witness now said : I was sitting behind
this man, and he said that his case would be
put off that he had given Bill Mann's son
money to do so ; and I think he used the name
of Low Cassidy.
Judge Ludlow. I want you to state the facts
and not your thoughts.
The witness continued, considerably moll
hal, saying he would not be sure about Cas
sidy; I heard McDonald say lie had a ease put
oil lest week, in a eimilar manner • I asked
him how he got the case put off. and he said
he vas a politician and I was not ; again, when
this man's name was called this morning he
did not answer; I have been here for a year
and cases' and cannot get a thatr; I have
two of embezzlement I cannot get
tried.
The. Judge directed McDonald to be sworn,
and be testified as follows This man Warren
never spoke to me about the case; I have a
case here for trial, and have twenty-seven wit
nesses in atttuilinlee; I never awe Mr. Mann
a cent in my life for any purpose - I never
gave any one a cent to give Mr. Minn at any
time in my life.
Tipstave Barber sworn.—When the name of
Mr. McDonald was called this morning, I heard
him answer distinctly.
Mr. Mann now addressed the court, saying
that he recollected Mr. Warren had a case
tried charging J. W. Hale, an employee, with
embezzlement. Judge Allison decided 'that
the case - was barred by the statute of limita
tion_ Mr. Warren declared at the time that
he did not discover tilt , embezzlements Until
two years after they had been committed.
David Paul Brown, MO, was then employed
by Mr. Warren to prosecute other bills, and
the wife of Mr. Warren subsequently came to
the house of Mr. Mann and offered him money,
which was ranged. Mr, Brownhas had charge
of the hills since, and no impediment has been
placed in the way of their being tried. This
Warren has, ever since the AO of the drat bill,
been hfoging about the court-house; and going
into the community abusing- me of villainy
and oOrropl ion.
Judge. Ludlow. If a aeletim charge like this
is made against the District Attorney, or any
Other offices oZ this count in a legal manners I

will ace that it goes to the very end. If the'
party making such a charge should not sub
stantiate it, he should suffer all the penalties
-due to thca.o elm make false oaths. This man
08.11 make his charges in a legal form if he
chooses, and they will be acted upon.
Mr. Warren now attempted to explain his
affairs to the ;fudge.
Judge Ludlow directed him to sit down,
saying he did not desire to hear him ; and Mr.
Warren left the court-room in a hurried
manner.
Mr. Mann directed the bills. of Mr. Warren's
to be found, and said they should be tried
whether his counsel was absent or not.
(The legal gentlemen who have from time to
time been connected with the case will show
that Mr. Mann had no hand in the delay of the
trial; so we are advised by therm]
There was more doing at the stock board
yesterday, but prices were generally lower.
The late advance in Government bonds was
partially lost, the 5.2 es selling at the close at
105% for the old issue. It is thought that the
foreign demand will early turn upon the new
issue, owing to the scarcity of the old issue
and the difference of about two per cent. in
price. Tert-forties are steady. The third se
ries of seven-thirties sold at 0994—ne change.
State securities are inactive, with no change
in prices. City loans are largely dealt in, hilt
the tendency is for lower quotations. The
Municipals declined %, and the new %. The
share list is weaker, excepting Pennsylvania
railroad, which sold at 58—an advance of %.
Reading was steady at 53%, Norristown at 57,
and Minehill at 56; Camden and Amboy was
weak at 126%, and Catawissa preferred at
27%—the latter being a decline of 1%. There is
little doing in company bonds, though prices
are steady. City Passenger Railroad shares
continue very quiet, the only sales being of
Hestonville at 17%. 75 was bid for Second and
Third; 18 for Thirteenth and Fifteenth; 22 for
Spruce and Pine ; and 66 for West Philadel
phia ; 12 was asked for Race and Vine ; 26 for
Girard College, and 24 for Union. There is
little or nothing doing in bank shares, but
prices are 'without change. 120 was bid for
North America ; 118 for Farmers' and Mecha
nics' ; 45 for Penn Township ; 52% for Girard ;
29 for Manufacturers' and Mechanics' ; and 57%
for Corn Exchange. A sale of Mechanics' Bank
was reported at 28 1 1- Canal 000 9 were mo
derately active, with further sales of Union
Canal at 2%, Susquehanna at 10, and Schuylkill
Navigation Preferred at 34%. There is an ave
rage business doing in the oil stocks at steady
figures. There are no changes in the money
market there being ample funds obtainable
at five to six percent. on call.

The banks of New Orleans were, at the break
ing out of the rebellion, transacting business
under a free banking law similar to that of
New York. On the retreat of the insurgents
from the capital their bonds, which had been
lodged with the State Treasurer to the amount
of about $2,560,000 as security for their cir
culation, were carried away by the g tate
ofdeers. A short time ago, our authority
being completely established throughout the
State, General Herron took the abstracted
securities out of the bands of the State Auditor,
and passed them over to General Sheridan,
who, by ordelba from General Grant, sent them
to Washington. More recently the bonds have
been returned to New Orleans, and they are
now being delivered to their old owners, the
banks. They are now in liquidation, and
these wandering securities will be divided
among the impatient and long-suffering bill
holders. The banks of the South have had a'
rough time during the rebellion, and these
most striking ineidenttl in the history of the
banking institutions of her largest city well
illustrate the miseries and misfortunes of all.
The yield of the copper mines on Lake Su

This quantity of mineral, at present prices,
would realize not far from $5,000,000, Bearing
in mind that it was only twenty years ago
that the Lake Superior lands Were taken Up,
mostly by adventurers, and that ten yelllrs
later the entire copper product of the United
States and Canada together scarcely exceeded
2,000 tons per annum; these figures show a
rapid development.
A letter from Lake Superior expresses a be.
lief that " the prospects of the production of
copper, if the mines are worked in full force,
have never been better on Lake Superior."
This is very different from the common belief
a few weeks ago. But, as a rule, Wages have
fallen from about $72 to $lO per month on an
average, and, at the same time, copper has ad-'
vanced to about thirty-one cents per pound.
This is still far below the mark reached one
year ago, when copper sold at 58 cents, the
highest ever known. The highest before the
war was 38 cents, in the year 1853. The average
for ten years ending in 1858 was twentyfour
and a half cents.
