The lirpther Jonathan Disaster—De•
iiiita the Terrible Affair.
The San Francisco papers, received here on
seturday, give some details of the terrible dis
aster to the Brother Jena - than, on the Pada ,
coast. The following, front the Bulletin, gives
the latest particulars:
"As everything relating to the sad affair is
of absorbing interest to the public,we subjoin
the statement Of quartermaster lates, as fob
lows
"We had returned seven or eight miles
toward Crescent City, and were eight miles
due west of Point of St. George, when, without
wearing, the stainer struck with full force
upon a sharp ledge, which, at the lowest ebb,
- projected about a yard above the surface. The
bottom of the steamer went to pieceS with a
crash. In three minutes, says the wheelman,
the large fragments of the bottom and a part
of the rudder were alongside. There were no
frantic acts among the passengers, though
they, as well as the Officers, must have had a
fall sense of their awful peril. Capt. DoWolf
ordered one of the larger boats lowered, and
tilled with lifty passengers, under the flint
'nate. None of the rescued saw her till she was
_floating bottom upward. The captain now or
dered the sccondmate to lower a boat, already
nearly filled with female Cabin passengers,
among whom was Mrs. Gen. Wright. The beat
'was lowered, but before the seamen had time
to man her the steamer careened and upset
her, throwing all on board into the water. The
mate (Mr. Campbell) drew up such of the ladies
as lie could reach from the steamer's chains,
where he held on.
"it was now fifteen minutes since the colli
sion, and the steamer was fast breaking M
pieces. The third mate, Mr. Patterson, who
was asleep when the crash came, now lowered
his small boat and hurried on board five
'women and three children, who were nearest
at hand. Ten of the crew leaped after him,
including two wheelmen, steerage steward,
and two firemen. The load was large for tile
boat, and she dipped incessantly, but the
strong arm and coolness of the mate brought
her twelve miles to Crescent harbor. Two
guns were fired just after the boat left the
steamer, and she disappeared under the
lows some fifteen minutes lath. Captain De
Wolf, General Wright, Mr. Lord (Wells, Fargo
Co.'s messenger), and Mr. Nisbet were on
deck when last seen by the rescued crew.
There were two boats go deck when the third
mate left, but, owing tb the terrible violence
43f the sea, it is not probable that either of
them could have been launched. Thirty-three
- bodies had been picked up, and more were
coming ashore every day. Most of the bodies
had been identified, among which were Nis
bet, Parrish, Pollock, Dyer, and Perkins, and
others I do not reeellect."

AND ARSENIC SOUND IN THE REMAINS—VER
DICT.
EFrow the Pittsburg Commercial, Saturday.) -
It is a somewhat significant circumstance in
the histary of Mrs. Grinder's case, that since
she has been confined to prison she does not
trust herself alone in her cell at nights, and
has requested that she have the company of
another female prisoner. Notwithstanding
this exhibi On Of weakness, she is sturdy
in proela" her innocence, and claim
ing that her' resent fiiiliculty is a mis
fortune. She says that she may not obtain
B. fair trial on earth, but she will have justice
at a bar where no jurors are required to render
verdicts. The following - report of the inquest
on the body of Mrs. Caruthers will be read
with interest, as it Is remarkably pointed and

TREATINCAL CLERGYMEN IN Cifiesoo—Tvro
raileClißlie VISIT THE THEATRE IN DISGIIISE—
IPIIEV AWL ABE - NOTED PICAPOCIOTtI—Last
evening, at the Museum, during the
_perform
ance of "Speed the Plough," a gentleman In
the audience announced to the attendants
that he had been robbed of $5OO. The deteo.
'Uses were put on the scent, and began eyeing
inquisitively every countenance in the the
atre. At length Mr. C. M. Edwards, superin
tendent of the 'Museum '
discovered a couple
of "gay and festive pals;" with eye-glasses
and canes, twirling their moustaches in the
utmost fashionable abandon, and apparently
With much experience in the business. Al„
quick eye discovered that the hair was
unnaturally long, awl that it sat rather
too jauntily on the face to be the result
of Nature or unguents. He therefore in
formed the detectives, and the two fellows
were "pulled" and taken into a private
room. On searchin g them, what was the hor
ror Of the offices to find beneath the gay
whiskers and dashing breastpin,. two clergy
men who bad disguised themselves for the
purpdsei of indulging in a little " unlawful and
unholy amusement. 1, One of them had on an
enormona false moustache, and was fixed up
in the roost recherche style;regardleas of ex_
reuse. The other were it Ugh 7710.Zik OYU Ilia
lower part of his face, which completely dis
guised- his features. Papers of a theological
character wore found on theirpersons, but
this was unnecessary, as they made a fall COn
,fession, and begged to be discharged, saying
that they only.dosired to see what the theatre
was like, in order that they might teach their
respective flocks to shun such evil places.
One of these theatrical clergMen spends his
Sabbaths dr preaching to a sleepy Chicago
audience; the other (and, thank Heath% Chi.
cage has not to father them both) is a minister
from the country who has left his flock for a
few days to visit the State fair—and the

THE CITY".
FIREMEN. IN CONTENTION—TRE ROUTE
ACM - BED UPON AS A FINALITT.—On Saturday
evening the delegates from the fire companies
assembled in Convention to perfect the ar
rangements for the great parade to take place
on Idonday, the 16th of next month, five weeks
from to-clay.
Robert T. Gill, Of the Hope Hose, President,
in the chair.
. .
After the reception of several communica
tions from as many companies sending dele
gates, one was received from William A. Gray,
Commissioner on Street Cleansing for a copy
of the route, that the streets may be properly
Drerdred for the procession. This was refer
red to the Committee of Arrangements.
The Committee of Arrangements submitted
a report, containing two resolutions—One au
thorizing the Chief Marshal to appoint live
additional aids.
. . .
This gave rise to a spicy debate, in which
Colonel Page, C. B. Andress, P. McLaughlin,
J. Pidgeon, S. Q. Butler, and others partici.
gated.
An amendment Wfis offered that the Chief
be allowed to select an aid from each com
pany. Lost.
The original motion was agreed to—yeas 57,
nays 37.
TEE ROUTE
The second resolution recommended certain
changes to be made in the route.
Colonel Page had an amendment to over.
He said that, in company with several gentle
men of the Fire Department, he had gone
over the western part of the route, and he
found that Twenty-first street, north from
Pine, had water courses intersecting it diago
nally at every cross street. Besides this, the
street is not solidly built upon. lie would,
therefore, move to insert Eighteenth street,
from Pine to Areli, as it contains handsome
dwellings, and there is no railroad track
upon it.
Colonel Page's amendment was unanimously
adopted.
A delegate from the Globe Engine objected
to a part of the route in the northeastern
section of the city, so much of it as refers to
Brown street, east of Fourth, because the pro
cession will move against the travel of the
cars. He therefore offered an amendment to
obviate this difficulty.
A delegate said that for so short a distance
perhaps the directors of the passenger rail
way occupying the street coal d be induced to
withdraw the cars, and thus leave the street
unimpeded.
Another delegate said he supposed the
directors would do no such thing ; the cars are
run for the benefit of the public, and our
parade is got up for the purpose of letting the
same public see the eXtent of the Fire Depart
ment of.this city.
Another delegate said be had called upon
the Mayor in order to have the streets on the
route kept clear. The Mayor replied that he
had no power to do so, except where the
streets might be illegally obstructed. fie
would have that attend' ad to, and assist the
department in keeping the Streets as clear as
possible.
The delegate from the Globe urged the pas
sage of his amendment, because if the cars run
on three minutes' time on that day (which is
quite likely), there would be met no less than
three ears oh that part of Brown street, and
they would have to drive through. There is
no legal power to stop them. The entire pro
cession would thus have to turn out for the
ears. •
A delegate now moved that we proceed to
consider the route street by street. This was
seconded by a number of delegates.
Various motions and suggestions were made,
and it bid fair that if this last motion prevail
ed the chances for agreeing upon a route were
as remote as the parade day itself.
Mr. J. G. Butler moved the previous ques
tion, and under thia-cell the chair decided the
route adopted. Much excitement prevailed,
the amendment respecting Brown street was
lost sight of, and, as the President put the
question en the adoption of the route with Col.
Page's amendment,
A. delegate arose to speak.
The president ruled him out of order, and
declared the route adopted as follows
The line will form on Broad street, the right
resting on Callowhili ; countermarch on Broad
street to Jefferson street • thence to Ger
mantown road; thence to 'Thompson street;
thence to shackamason street; thence to
Beech street ; thence_ to Brown street ; thence
to Fourth street; thence to Wharton street;
thence to Ninth street; thence to Pine street;
thence to Eighteenth street; thence to Arch street;
thence to Twenty-first street; thence to Green
street; thence to Twelfth street; thence to
Chestnut street;. thence to Third street, and
dismiss.
The delegatewho claimed the floor, and who
:was ruled out under the eall of the previous
question, appealed from the decision of the
chair.
On the 'question shall the decision of the
chair stand as the Judgment Of the house, the
yeas were .s(i, nays 27.
A motion was made to adjourn. Lost.
COLORED BANDS
A motion was now introduced that no colored
band be admitted in the line.
Mr. Dull, of the Cohocksink Hose, said that
under a previous decision Of thla Convention
limiting the price for each musician at $lO and
the leader NS, there was nothing said about
the color. His company had secured the ser
vices of a colored band already; therefore he
thought the question was not in order at this
late day for discussion.
31.1 L Butler moved that tile consideration of
the motion be indefinitely poetponed. Agreed
to—yeas Cl, nays '25.
I=l
Mr. Andress moved that a cavalcade be al
lowed in the line for such of the older mem
bers of the department who could not walk
the route, and who would furnish their own
horses:
A delegate moved to amend, that one mem
ber representing each company be allowed to
appear on horseback equipped..
Mr. Butler said that if anything appeared
ridiculous, it was an equipped fireman on
horseback. This same question was considered
in the committee of arrangements, where it
was lost by a - 12/05t decided mote.
The motion was lost finally.
AMBULANCES.
Mr. P. McLaughlin moved that the, ambu
lances be excluded from the procession.
Mr. Butler moved to amend, that each com
pany having an ambulance be allowed to pa
rade the same in the rear of the company.
Agreed to.
A motion was made that no person shall ride
in the ambulances excepting firemen who
were physically disabled in the service of the
country.
A delegate pleasantly moved to amend,
" except Mr. Forbes, of the Washington En
gine.”
Another delegate moved further to amend,
except old Jake Triplet:, in case he should
become t!red."
These two ainendments were laughed down,
and the original motion was adopted. The
Convention then adjourned.
DESTRUCTIVE FIRE.—On Saturday morn
ing, about two o'clock, tire broke out in the
GoOd Intent Mills, Market street, near Forty
-fifth, in the Twenty-fourth ward. The esta.
blishment consists of a main building, four
stories in height, with side wings of three sto
ries, all built of stone, and occupies nearly a
square of ground.
The the commenced in the eastern wing, On
eupied by Yates & Hurdle, for the manufacture
of all kinds of machinery for cotton and wool
len mills. The Fames originated over the
boiler-house, among a lot of lagging in process
of drying. and owing to the combustible nature
of the material, spread rapidly, and soon ex
tended to the Sa3Clllg and planing rooms. The
whole of the eastern wing, as well as a ohe
story blacksmith shop in the rear, running .
south, was destroyed. A large quantity of
finished machinery, and machinery, in pro
cess of manufacture, were destroyed. Five
thousand dollars , worth, which had justbeen
completed and was ready for shipment, were
ruined.
The main building Was not injured. The
door by which communication was had with
the eastern wing, was an iron one, and saved
the structure. -
The first floor of this building was used by
Yates Cc Hurdle, for erecting machines, and
for storing finished machinery. The property
was nearly all got out, but was considerably
damaged by hasty removal and exposure.
The upper stories of the main building are
occupied by James Greenwood, manufacturer
of carpet and jacket yarns. Ills stock was re
moved by the police Without loss. •
The western wing is occupied by James Led..
ward, manufacturer of woollen yarns. It es
caped uninjured. The mill is owned by James
Ford. His losses will amount to 15000. It is
fully insured in the Royal Insurance Company.
Messrs. Yates & Hurdle estimate their loss
at *25,000, upon which there is an insurance of
6115,000, in the Equitable. of Philadelphia,
Northern, of London and other companies.
The fire originated accidentally. A most
singular coincidence is connected with tha
Six years ago, on the same night,. at
the same hour of the night, the same portion
of the establishment was destroyed by fire,
caused by spontaneous combustion.
There was considerable difficulty in giving
the alarm. The telegraphic instrument at thg
Twenty-fourth ward police station was badly
injured by lightning., about midnight. The box
in the West Philadelphia engine house was
struck, but the signal was not received at the
central station. The alarm was finally given
from the Ninth ward policestation. The West
Philadelphia, Monroe, and Philadelphia steam
engines reached the ground early and did
good service. They drew their water from

On Saturday afternoon John Given and
Philip Hamilton, City Commissioners, and Dr.
IL IC Smith were arraigned on the oath of
Thomas W. Price, Charging them with con
spiracy in rublishing a libel upon him. The
alleged libellous article was published in a
morning and an evening paper. It purported
to be an answer to a publication alleged to
have ,)uen procured by Thomas W. Price, in
which the MOW and official character of Mr. -
John Wren, one of the city commissioners,
was Liasailecl, and, as is alleged, intended to
defeat biro before the Union nominating con
vention of the county of Philadelphia. The
publication now complained of by Mr. Price
sets forth a series of sworn-to affidavits, impu
ting to him profane and vulgar language, and
charging him with asking and receiving ex,
tertionftie rates for blanks and blank-books
furnished to the Department of City Commis
sioners.
Joseph E. Flanigan, reputed to be the pub
lisher of a paper known as the Daiiy News, was
called to the Stand. He testified that Dr.
smith and Mr. Given called at the office of the
News, and witness published the article com
plained of, as an advertisement. He further
testified that Dr. Smith read the manuscript
to him before it was recived for publication.

puted as attachda of the evening Telegraph,

ors, was called to the stand. Hg testified that
Dr. Smith appeared at the offTh.e of the City
Commissioners, having a slip, or what pur.,
ported to be a slip, of the alleged libel, and
that he, in the presence of Mr. Given, read the
same and made some corrections.
Mr. W. S. Price, counsel for the prosecution.
asked that. the defendants be bound over to
answer at cont.
Mr. W. D. Baker, counsel for defence, con
tended that Dr. Smith could not be held, even
had he written the article. He certainly did
not publish it, nor did either of the defend
ants publish it to the world.
Mr, Given pp.id that he desired to exonerate
Dr. Smith from any complieity in the matter.
He (Mr. G.) took the entire responsibility upon
his own shoulders.
The liecordee decided to return the case to
the next term of the court. Each defendant
entered bail in the sum of WAD to appear.
The office was crowded during the hearing
to almost suffocation. There is More than
usual interest manifested in this case.
