TIE BHEFANDOAB• The Times has begun to perceive, at last, that some stop ought to be put to the buccaneering exploits of the Shenandoah in the North Pacific. It suggests that the British Admiralty should send out a naval force sufficiently strong to capture or destroy this marauder, and suggests that,. when captured, Captain. WADDELL -should be hung as a pirate. This advice smacks of the old prcliverb which speaks •of the wisdom of shutting the stable-door after the steed was stolen. The proper action on the part of the British Govern ment should have occurred considerably •earlier. The Shenandoah was built, fitted , out and manned in England, and still is British property ; for though she hoisted the Confederate flag (as a substitute for the regular death's head and crbss-bottes on a black-ground), she never yet cast anchor within any harbor at any time, or for any time, possessed by "the so-called Southern Confederation." Six months ago, that pseudo-Confederation came to an end, yet the Shenandoah still carries its fustian flag. The British Government, had it any earn est purpose of carrying out the neutrality it proclaimed, in Queen VICTORIAN name, (fancy Kr. Gui.osivam assenting, in a Cabi net council, to the principle and even the language of these proclamations, and, at the same time, having neatly folded up in his pocket-book ConfederaV bonds for VlO,OOO !) should have prevented the Ala bama, the Shenandoah, and other such vessels being built in and departing from British ports. There lay the original blun der, and we have TALLEYBAND's word for it that a blunder in politics is worse than a , crime. For the injuries done to American commerce hy British pirates sailing un. der the Confederate rag, we have to hold England responsible, in a political and in a pecuniary point. Sir NORTON I'Epo - who has judiciously expressed himself with moderation and temper when alluding to international politics, de clared, in his speech at Chicago last - week, that he was persuaded, when the matter was fully investigated, that it would appear that the British Government had done every thing in its power to prevent English ships being employed, under the rebel flag, to injure American commerce. Sir Moirrow Pnro is avowedly a liberal man <and expresses himself in the most friendly language towards the United States, but he is impressed, like the majori ty of his countrymen, with the idea that the British Government was not to blame if it delayed taking steps to stop the Ala baina-at Liverpool until, after she had put to sea. Pamianwroa has said so in the Commons ; RUSSELL echoed him in the Lords, and the press of England, with a few exceptions, swelled the cry that if Bri tish-built vessels were employed to ravage American commerce, it was only a just retribution on the United States for not having let the South quietly glide into Se cession, and from Secession into Nation ality. As the same time, while England thinks so favorably of rebellion upon one side of the Atlantic, see how sensitive she is to any thing like it on the other. No sooner was it Whispered that a few unarmed natives, supposed to be infected with Fenianism, were beiri'g drilled at midnight in some counties of Ireland, (a country not much larger than Maine,) than arrests were in stantly ordered upon a large scale, and the channel fleet immediately ordered to cruise close to Ireland as a measure of precaution. ON MONDAY .v.vExixe. one of the steam cars on the Frankford Railroad ran into a carriage and overturned it and its occu pants down an embankment, into a pud dle of water. Something should be done to prevent the constant repetition of these accidents, accounts of the majority of which never appear in the newspapers. Colli sions are oftentimes of daily occurrence— sometimes two and three in a day—and damage always results either to the unlucky vehicle or the steam-car. In either case there is danger to life. The boiler of the car is but ill-protected, and if struck and penetrated is quite likely to scald engineer or passengers to death. The road is much travelled,, but travel to any great extent should be entirely prohibited. If owners of wagons and horses do not reek for their lives and property, the law should step in to learn them common sense. . Tnr. camel - experiment is again to be tried on the plains by an " overland camel company?' The camels are be 'imported from Algeria, and will do some of the heavy transportation to our fellow-citizens in the wilds. They can travel on roads impracticable to wagons and in the inoun tain passes, as well as on the plains, and will be for years of immense utility. The camel is the semi-civilized method of trans portation, and is but the harbinger of the railroads which will within the century cover our western land with a giant net-work. A icew the Owyhee Avalanche, has. Just been issued at Ruby City, Owyhee county, Idabo Territory. Newspapers are said to be offshoots of civilization, and, like full-leaved branches, evidence the health and maturity of the trunk from which they spring. Civiliza tion, therefore, has extended into a terri tory which even less than a score of years ago was a perfect wilderness, and only a hunting ground for savages. Even now it has scarcely more than' 9,000 inhabitants, whites and Indians computed, add yet the whites are intelligent and progressive enough to demand a newspaper. With such pioneers to conquer our Western Wilds, and prepare the way for our grow ing greatness to the Pacific coast, is it any that we are the forethost among the nations in peace and in war ? The Lincoln Monument.. At a meeting of the National Lincoln Ifonn meat Association, held in Springfield, Illinois, last week - , the treasurer's report showed the gross receipts of the association, including the interest on ;40 bonds, to be $13,000, of which $51,000 are still in the treasury, the balance having been expended for incidental expenses. A very beautiful and apparently appropriate design for the monument was submitted by the Governor from a well-known Vermont sculptor. it is a Corinthian column, supporting a colossal figure of Lincoln, and resting on a pedestal. Four groups, repre senting the different branches of the military service, occupy as many corners of the pedes tal. At the base of the pedestal, and looking outward from the colummare the figures of {our boys upon pedestals, representing a sailor boy, drummer boy, bugle boy, and nag boy. • The design was universally admired by the inembers,but no action was taken regarding it.

Revolutionsnot only do not go backwards, but often (like the whirlpools that sweep everything into their - vortex) react, reform, or change others beyond those they were or gan izecl to abolish or improve. The, new era produced by the war will affect more things than slavery, and extend to a wider space than the South. We have already seen that it has created an unwonted bustle in trade Of all kinds ; has given an impe tus to labor; a new tone to politics, and new texts for private research and debate ; and it is easy to predict that all. this liber ty being true, of the few months succeeding the rebellion, how many unequalled wonders will startle the world when the energies that have been quiet during four years of blood shed are permitted to work with the tremen dous vitality acquired in that long period of rest and reflection. A total change in what is merely a tolerated custom must take place in the present organism of the American stage. It would be incomprehensible if that which should be a source and a means of public amusement and instruction were allowed to go on seeking for the lowest subjects with which to debase the popular taste and to empty the popular pocket, It is contended that the war degraded the American etage—an assertion which, however true of some things, is certainly not true of what was already so inferior when the war be gan, as in some respects to seem beyond a deeper decline, if not incapable of redemp tion Let us admit, however, that the drama in thie coue.try degenerated while our armies were fighting; that only makes it a necessity and a duty to improve and to elevate it in the hours of peace and " neconstruction.o Before considering this necessity and duty, let us melt after the individual chiefs of the AmerL can stage, and ask where they are fOund at the end of the great struggle 1 And first about Edwin Forrest. lie is here in Philadelphia, in his fine mansion at the corner of Broad and Master streets, recovering and nearly rept. venated from a long illness. For over two months he was stretched on what for a time threatened to be the couch of incurable in vtdidism ; but the care of his physician (Mr, Forrest is a stern believer in the homceopathic system) and his own natural strength of body and the philosophic habit that has grown out of an education in the struggles of life such as few men have lived to learn—all these have carried him through, and he will begin a course of Shakspeare in the New England towns, about the middle of next month, in almost his usual splendid health. It is known. that Mr. Forrest, in his anxiety to improve his own profession, some time ago pmjected a kind of theatrical school, and erected a neat brick addition to his residence, to which he removed his noble picture gallery, and in which he established, on a small but perfect model, his stage, auditorium, orchestra ' tee., or the accommodation of the youth of both sexes - who might be so fortunate as to obtain admission to his college. His long illness and necessary absence in his personations at the theatres, have only postponed, let us hope, the fulfilment and prosecution of this noble design. We believe it is bis intention to se cure the services of some old and experienced actor, of tried integrity and character, 'to superintend this instal/thin. Once in fair pro. gress, with the aid and influence of Mr. For rest's advice and presence, we can conceive no more useful public benefit, nor could the last scenes of his own eventful and distinguished career, be more harmoniously tilled and hon ored, than by the success of this theatrical seminary, and the promising graduation of the young men and women who had been trained within its wills, After rorrest we ldok for Murdoch among the living tragediani. Honor to the patri otic and unselfish caizen i His services to his bleeding county during the war for its liberty and salv tion—hiS unceasing and whole-hearted dev ion should secure to him on his retu to the stage, front which he retired , vhen the war began, an ovation in evert loyal city. He knew nothing hut the icpublic in that darkest hour in the histofy of modern civilization, and we trust hif reappearance before his countrymen (soon to take place) will be the signal for such a Series of demOnstrations in his behalf as will; show that his courage and chsinterestednew have not been forgotten-- James W. Walla& and E. L. Davenport,natned in company in recent rears, because of their successful "conibinationil in the personation of the standar4 drama, are not, we think, act ing together this season. No two gentlemen are better qualified by nature and study to en_ lighten and edify others' s and would nowsustain an enviable ' personal and. professional repnta• tion. Mr Edwin Booth and Mr: J. S. Clarke) brothers-in-law and partners, will doubtless add equallyto fortune and fame in the coming season. Mr. Clarke was warmly welcomed at the opening week of the Walnut, of which he and Mr. B. are owners. One realizes, as ha writes on this subject, the death or absence from the stage of many of those who have been chiefs in their art. The best establishments—Wheat ley's (Niblo's Garden), Wallack's (New York), Dirs. Drew's Arch (in this city), Grover's New Chestnut here, and the fine establish. went that bears his name (in Washing ton); Ford's (in Baltimore), Pike's (in Cin cinnati), the great Boston Theatre, the Wal nut (in this city), and the San Francis co temples of amusement, are all mak. ing money, now, and have made money for their owners. Wheatley's income is very large. His success has been unexampled. The owner of Pike's Opera Honse, in Cin cinnati, d'unlOr has it, contemplates a mighty edifice in New York—which is to combine all the varieties of music, comedy, tra. gedy, pantomime, and spectacular grandeur. As we note that even the stage in Salt Lake City is prosperous,we gather anew page in the history, of the rebellion, and see how poorly the players are doing in the South. In Richmond. Norfolk, New Orleans,Memphis, Nashville, and of course, Louisville and St. Louis, the thea tres are all in full blast, with few familiar names on their bills, not the less certain, on that account, let us hope, of being the begin ning of first-rate reputations. But else where all is sad. The track of war was one wide desolation—blotting out many of the most elegant and luxurious iheatrieal cities in the insurgent regions, depopulating whole commonwealths, and forcing work upon those who had only known what labor was in the ease with which they squandered its pro ceeds. Somuch for a glance at the personale of the the stage. Of its morale little can be said in the way of pitiful Let us illnatrate by taking the plays now in vogue to crowded horses in Philadelphia. At the Walnut we have "Lady Audley's Secret," a wretched sensation story, based on bliss Braddon's hysteric novel of that name, teaching the MONS of hypocrisy, falsehood and cupidity so well that, although these vices are punished in the final catastro phe, the success of the she-villain will betaken by some young people rather as a temptation thane as a warning. At the New Chestnut We have Miss Helen Western in masculine charac ters, very rude, very free, very muscular, and, we must add, very vulgar. At the New Wal nut Miss hate Fisher, handsome and horsy, is doing the same kind Of Characters in the effective style. At the Arch there is a diffe ience in tboorift&-of pieces, but" The Serf" of the flash flashy, anti really imparts no lessoll that can be remembered or followed. We are to have Dirs. Lander Davenport at this house on the 2d of October—a very comforting fact. But even this chaste artiste must advertise for a spoiled public taste, by appearing in what is either unnatural or doubtful. The fixed fashion, or rather the adherence to the fixed fashion, controls everything ; and lie will be a bold man who can cure or change it for something sensible or probable. Nor is it the fault of our managers ; they do their best. It is the fault of the market, foreign as well as domestic; and, though ready to pay the best prices for plays and players, and spurred by a sharp and hot competition, they cannot pur chase what is not to be had. Who is to dis cover the remedy 1 Why is it that the stage does not feel the elevating influences of the times ? Never have the sciences Leeli so active and BO beneficent as now; never have so many good new books been publiahed ; never '.have the, great mecha nic arts been so alert and , prolific. of inven lions. Only the stage drags along without MI: provement Of the writers 'of fiction from which playwrights may draw their material there is only one who teaches the genuine phi! losophy of real life ; who vindicates, the best moral maxims ; who lashes the wanton vices of the world, and makes us ambitious that our common experience shall be felt and followed for good. That one is Charles Dickens. When we think of the salutary infludnces of his sto ries turned into plays, for the benefit of thou sands, many of whom could not read theta in the books, we long for " Dombey," with Captain Cuttle, and Walter, and Cawker, and Nell; for Oliver Twist, with Bill Sykes and Nancy ; for "The Cricket on the Hearth," (the mere thought of the cricket brings to us the dear old Christmas times,) for David Copper field, and the other thoughtful and immortal writings of that world's benefactor. "Our Mutual Friend," the last sands of which are now running through Harper's Magaene, is a perfect Nevada of precious metals, in the shape of incidents, situations, language, and above all in the valuable impreeilons and pre cepts it leaves, When will it be dramatised'? Because what is known as the Theatie pro- per as fallen into these loose practices, the opera has become popular with the intelligent and maned, The early stage was not only dedicated. to dramatiC, poe• try, bui also to music as sung 'in chorus. This was undoubtedly true of thC Greeks, with whom the theatre originated. In many cases, and for many years, the recitative, uas preceded or superseded by the lyric artists. "The whole structure of the thea tre,” says the historian. "may be traced to the chorus, whose station was the original centre of the whole performance)) The opera is undoubtedly fashioned after these ancient models. What we knew as the Italian opera is the foundation of the French and German. The Pindaric ode became the fash ion, and poetry, written to be sung, 'not spoken, tilled the Italians witli a sort df poetic euency, and soon extended to, other nations, 'reaching Englazul and the 'Craned States last. It is only comparatively a' RAO yeais since 'the American people'were taught toloVe'ihtii Stile . , of dramatic. tiersonatiOn, and, now, at the end of the greatest sear of modern Years;'we find it greedily . - preferred ' eultivattel add even by the multitude (rot' what ts the, taStilon is Mire to be imitated by the . Masies)' to the theatre, which has confessedly, as w 0 hive THE PRESS: PHILADELPHIA:; WEDNESDAY; SEPTEMBER 27; 1805: shown, fallen far below the high destiny that it ought to labor , for criticism. Although in the structure of the , mOdern drains, Italian or German, the unities are often _flagrantly dis carded, the plot involved; and. the language generally unintelligible, yet the music ex ercises a most soothing effect. Nay, it may claim a high mission; for we have seen that where delicious harmonies of the great masters are studied and repeated, the rudest are softened and refined, and rough tastes and habits subdued and given up in the excitement of the emulation pro duced by a feeling, once realized, never forgotten. We are gratified to know that there is to be no lack of progress, and of inf.: proved progress, in the opera during tile' winter. Maretzek and Gran are evidently to be the high rivals ; but there is a harvest for both, and a wide field for their largest ex penditures. They Catillat mistake in pro• curing the very best talent. Dir. Bateman's new card, Madame " Tarepa," stirs the world of harmony in advance of the "grand model! of choristers and instrumentalities of all degrees. She is said to be a wonder of her school, and is still singing to unabated crowds in New York. We hear that Mr. Leon ard Grover, of the New Chestnuthere, and the temple of his Own name, in the National ORA tal, will contend with the boldest for the con trol of the best Operatic people; but whether he will reinforce Maretzek. or Grau, or start a troupe of his own, remains to be seen. He is a bold man, and we could wish success to no more patriotic, generous and philanthropic citizen. The Grand Fair for the Soldiers. THE GREAT PREPARATIONS -IfOR IT-CONTRIBU TIONS PROM THE WHOLE COUNTRY-OUR DEBT TO THE DISABLED VETERANS. AS the Opening day of the great liar for the Soldiers' and Sailors' Home draws near, the interest in it increases, and not only Phila delphia and Pennsylvania, but New York and the New England States are awakened to the national importance Of the event. With peace has come' ,new responsibility; we no longer need Sanitary and Christian Commissions to provide for the comfort of soldiers in the field, but gratitude, justice, honor, require that we should take proper care of those veteran soldiers who have come home from the war mutilated, pen niless, friendless ' and unable to work. To Philadelphia the honor belongs of first esta blishing a Home for these gallant men. Two years ago the building at Race and Crown streets was taken by a committee of promi nent ladies and gentlemen, and since then it has been filled with deserving veterans. It is now entirely too small to admit one half Of the applicants, and the managers, by this great Fair, desire to raise a building gad en dowment, and thus to re-establish the Home upon a basis worthy of the nobility of its pur poses and the gratitude of the nation. That they will be energetically aided by the ladies, the merchants, manufacturers, and farmers of Pennsylvania, we are assured; but our citizens should spare no effort to make this great Fair one of the meet brilliant successes of Philadelphia's benevolence. New, Eng land, New York, and New Jersey have shown a noble spirit. They remember the hos pitality of the Philadelphia Refreshment Saloons, where nearly one million of soldiers, passing through the city, were supplied with meals, and recognizing the nationality of the Home, they are giving it their liberal and earnest support. Host of the leading NeW England manufacturers halo contributed generously, and in very many of the Eastern cities the ladies have formed committees in aid of the fair. All this is very encouraging, It is evident that the people have not forgotten their debt to the few thousands of disabled veterans who are homeless in the land they have saved. The success of our Home will probably lead to the consolidation for that of other enterprises here, the establishment of similar institutions in the other States, and at a comparatively small expense, every deserving veteran who has - lost limbs or health in the battles for the Union, will find shelter, and, if he is able, oe. cupation. All that is now needed is energy and co-operation. The Fair will begin Octo ber 2&l, and whoever would share in its tri umph should begin to work for it at once. The Shooting Cases In Richmond. From the Richmond papers of Monday we take the following particulars of the shooting case, the points of which were yesterday ape• cially telegraphed to The Press: On Friday night about 10 o'clock, a man named It. EL Meade was shot, en Franklin street, opposite Metropolitan Hall, by a wo man named Isabella Ould, the ball entering the back to the left of the spinal colunia, and. ranging forward, remained in the body. The two were first heard in an altercation in the street, the woman- exclaiming in piteous tones, "Don't leave me 1" At that time the woman-was standing in the door of the restaurant opposite the " Eureka," and Meade was in the street, a few feet distant from the door. While the woman was plead ing, "Don't leave me," Meade halted for a moment, but suddenly turned upon his heel and started down the street, when Mrs. Oald stepped out of the door into the street and fired upon Meade, the ball taking effect as above described: After receiving the shot h jie staggered back a few steps and exclaimed, "Liz, don't shoot me any more." When the' police came up, almost immediately after the Idring, they found the woman approaching the wounded man, who was stooping to the ground searching for a brick. Both were taken into custody. Meade was carried to a house near by, where his wound was properly dressed by Dr. White. Mrs. Could, after her arrest, begged to be allowed to see Meade, and was taken into the house where he was lying. Her face was badly swollen, as if from a severe blow; and it was alleged that she had been struck with a brick by Meade previous to the shooting‘Ms soon as she saw the wounded man shdliaix claimed, "Oh, Bob, Bob, how are you! - Will you forgive mei I begged you to save me from ruin, and you would not !" saying which she covered her face with her hands and burst into tears. Meade responded, rather sul lenly, "Well, you say I've ruined you, and now you tried to, kill me. you've got all my money !" Mrs. Ould quickly replied, "I don t - want your money," and thereupon drew from. her, pocket a roll of bills and a watch and chain, and handed them to the wounded man. Several of the bystanders reminded her that she had better keep some of the money; but she replied, "No, I don't want it; be dead before he will !" Mrs. Ould was carried before the provost judge on Saturday morning, but, owing to the condition of the wounded man, the examination was postponed and the ac cused sent to prison in default of one thou sand dollars, Mr. atarroaduk - e JOhnsou ap peared as counsel for the accused. Mrs. Isa bella Ould is about thirty years of age, rather prepossessing in aparance, and came to this country from London, England, seven years ago. She has been married once but is child less. She has been acquainted with Meade for about three years, during part of which time she is said to have been living with him as his wife. For some months past the two have beenjointly interested in a bar-rope:loß Frank lin street, opposite Metropolitan Hall. She states that Meade had promised to marry her, and that when he left the house on Friday night she knew he was on his way to Manches ter to Visit a young lady whom he had engaged to marry to-night (Monday).During the day (Friday) she had implored him not to desert her, and he had, but a few hours previous to the shooting, taken a solemn oath that he would not. Meade is about thirty-three years of age, and fOr4o3offle time past has heen employed as an agent on the Orange and Alexandria Rail road. On Saturday morning he was doing tol erably well, and, with the consent of his phy sician, was moved to .the residence of a Mr. Hooper, in Manchester to whose daughter, it Is said, he was to have heen. married tonight. Mr. Perkins, a huckster in the First Market, who resides on the corner of Belvidere and Cary streets, in Sidney, was aroused on Satur day night by his wife who insisted that rob bets were endeavoring to get into the house. Not believing that anything wrong was the matter, he soon fell asleep again. In the mean time his wife got up to examine the premises and ascertain whether her fears were ground less, which she was doing when Mr. Per kins was again roused. by whet he supposed was the noise made by some burglar. Seizing a pistol he had in his chamber, lie Bred upon her just as she was coming down stairs on her return to her chamber. The effect of the shot was to kill her instantly. As soon as Mr. Per kins discovered his fatal mistake, he awoke his neighbors with the cry, "I have killed my dear wife," and gave expression to the most poignant grief. The relations between the parties thus suddenly separated, had always been of the mostplessant character, and there is no circumstance Connected with the affair to induce the impression that it was anything but one of the most painful and heartrending accidents which ithas been our duty to record for many a long day. Mr. Perkins, in" his so vere affliction, has the sympathy o 1 a number Of friends and neighbors. Pendleton's Speech in Richmond. (From the Richmond Republic.) The _people of Richtnond were addresSed on Saturday night at the City Hall by Mr. Pen dleton and Mr. Barbour, two of the candidates for Congress in this district. We were as much delighted with the admirable address of Mr. Barbour as disappointed and chagrinedby that of Mr. Pendleton. From the well-written and most interesting card in which the latter gentleman introduced himself to the people as a candidate for Con gress,.we _expected to hear from him on this occasion the, speech of a conservative friend of the Union, who had suffered in its behalf, and was determined, more than ever, to sup port its cause hy, inculcating among thepeople wherever he went the most liberal sentiments of forgiveness and reconciliation. We are sorry and disappointed to hear very different sentiments expressed in his address, which was yiolent,ill-natured and extravagant in the highest degree—a speech that would. much bete ter have suited the angry era of the war than the present conciliatory period of pacification and reconstruction. One of the laws of Congress, against which there exists no objection of unconstitutionalt ty, whatever else may be its demerits, pre scribes a stringent oath as a qualification ne. cessary to admission to a seat in that body. At, this law of the land Mr. Pendleton sneered in the moat eentemptuous manner ; spoke of the Congress which passed it as idiots ; and, while ,deelaring that he could take the oath, pro claimed that he was not running On that me. rit. He went on to speak of four Federal gene rale, who had quartered on his farm before the pampalgn of the Wilderness ; and alluded, with apparent gratification, to the fact that three of them bad-been slain in battle a few days after leaving his premises, as if a special Providence bad thus interfered to mark them with its disapprobation, and as if the grave it self could not relieve its victims from the ani mosities of Mr. Pendleton. That a speech de• livered in such temper does not suit the pre sent circumstances "o the South,must be ap parent to every_ reflecting citizen ; and, though we would gladly avoid the necessity of doing so, if possible, yet we should be recreant to our `duty if we did not visit 'linen these portions of sir. Pendietonls speech tine most emphatic re probation. The law of Congress prescribing the test oath in question is a law of the land, It grew out of the exigencies and passions of the war, out of cireumetances which all may deplore, , .but which not even the hand of Omnipotence can now change. As a law of the laud, it must be obeyed until it shall be legally , repealed.. The. South earnestly desires and hopes for its 'repeal or modification • bet it would adopt a' ' mistaken Method Of ileCOrnpliehing this !object if it sent Representatives to Ciongress InOtertous for the violence with which they de noinice-the law and- for: the opprobriotts-epi thete 'Which' they apply to the body from which fits repeal is. eolfelted. , At the',pass of Therutoplyiss three hundred . Spartan's rushed Upon a'. useless and:wan ton death' in- Obedience to, a law ot• their country forbidding its soldiers to return home from war .except as,,conquerors or borne upon their shields. Oa the Monument which Was erected over their remains, upon the scene of their immolation ' was written this inscription: "Stranger, Mil the Lactedemoniane Med we lie here in obedience to their laws." In this same spirit of obedience even to the Most exigent of laws, many patriotic men Of Vir ginia have immolated their personal aspira tions, and in deference to this law of Congress have retired from the congressional canvass, The conduct of these gentlemen is, in our bumble opinion, far more to be admired than that of Mr. Pendleton, in characterizing the law and its authors in the terms he employed on Saturday night. Mr. Pendleton was followed by Mr. B. John son Barbour in one of the most eloquent, ad mirable and conservative Speeches we have listened to in many years. ' It was a beautiful elaboration of the-Views which he expressed in his letter on public affairs which was pub lished last mouth. Mr. Barbour made a de cidedly favorable impression upon the people of this city • and we have every reason to be lieve and to'hope that he will earrythe district by a decided majority over all competitors. OUR TRAVELLING CORRES PONDENT. From Pittsburg to Chicago—Along the Banks ot the Ohio—A Night in a Sleep. ing Car—The Appearance of the Coun try—The Western Bailwaye—CbiebSe and theChleago River—The Streets of the City—Trade and Business—The Crops—Cattle. Cato/Lao, Sept. 22, 1865 Leaving Pittsburg at 3 P. K, on the PlUS burg, Fort Wayne, and Chicago Railroad, we passed rapidly westward along the banks of the Ohio. I was struck with its general re• semblance, both in width and the appearance of the banks on either side, to the Delaware a short distance below Easton, Pa. We arrived at Alliance at about 7 P. M., where an excellent and bountiful supper was prepared for the passengers, to which they did full justice. Night closed around 'us; but, having fortunately secured a comfortable berth in the fine sleeping-car attached to the train, we were soon sleeping soundly and com fortably, our slumbers only being interrupted by the summons of the gent in charge of the car to prepare for breakfast, as we were ap proaching Fort Wayne. Rising, we found our shoes polished at the entrance to the berth; a marble wash-stand with hydrant attached ; mirror, comb, and brush near by ; and, but for the comparatively narrow proportions of our couch and a slight runlb- . ling of the train, it would not have been diffi cult to imagine that we had been passing the night in a hotel. Railway travelling has been reduced to a science by our lirst-class roads, and we are not quite sure that many of those who avail themselves of the facilities afforded do not find their physical wants more agreea bly supplied while on a journey than during their quiet residence at home. During the whole long route from Pittsburg to Chicago— four hundred and sixty-eight miles—the coun try is so perfectly level that scarcely a single natural obstruction of the road existed; but what surprised me was that I noticed scarcely a point where the horizon was not bounded by a vigorous growth of thriving timber. I did not see one single bona-fide prairie—part of the land was saturated with water, being abandoned as swamp land;. and this resem bles very much in general appeeranee the marshy meadows which lie a short distance west of - Atlantic City, N. J., but they were only of limited extent, and immediately in their rear the wide-Spread and almost unin terrupted growth of timber which abounds in northern Ohio, northern Indiana and northern Illinois, was everywhere perceptible. But a small portion of the laud through which we Passed to-day was cultivated. We saw no stock, and very few farm-houses. The line of the road is almost perfectly straight. Stand ing on the rear platform and looking back we could see the/ rails apparently converging un til they appeared to reach a single point, and if we had trusted to the evidence of our own eyes, regardless of the mathematical axiom that two parallel lines can never approach each other, we-would almost have been forced to conclude that the track united. at the dis" taut point in view. It becomes easy to under stand how and why it is that the whole West is so completely gridironed with railways. The eost and labor of completing them only com mences where in Pennsylvaniaand other East ern States among our rugged mountains,rolling plains and deep valleys it is almost ended. In. the East, the great labor is to make the neces sary excavations and tunnels and to build the high banks. In the West, they have simply to lay down the cross-ties and% fasten on the rail road iron. The statistics are not at hand, but there is no doubt that on a few miles of some of your Eastern roads &stanch money has been expended as was necessary to lay down the track of some entire lines in the West. • A kind Providence seems to have not only made the great West the granary and garden of the world, where all the great food staples can be produced to an indefinite extent, but the natu ral outlets by which these products can be for warded to the markets of the world have been bestowed in an equally bountiful degree. To the mighty waters of the Ohio and Mississippi, and the great lakes on the north leading to the St. Lawrence, and thence to the Atlantic, has been added such a - surface as renders the construction of gigantic railways almost as easy as the construction of ordinary turnpikes in the East. • We arrived at Chicago at about 1 o'clock P' M., having made the trip from Philadelphia, a distance of nine hundred and twenty-four miles, in less than thirty-eight hours, an ave rage rate of speed, including all stoppages, of more than twenty-four miles per hour, and not one of our party evincing the slightest symptoms of fatigue,.but all concurring in the judgment that our journey here had been ex tremely pleasant. I will remain in this fine city for too brief a period to properly examine its many attraction% and gain information in regard to its public institutions and extensive trade and commerce. As we entered the su burbs the huge grain elevators on the borders Of the lake and the Chicago river (which runs through the city) rose into view ; also many largeholfd and lumber-yards, and great piles of a l &i-bituminotis coal, which does not sparkle like the black diamonds of Pennsyl- Valliai but bears a hue resembling the color of slate. We soon entered the bush:Lead streets of the city, which by their width and the beauty of the stores, hotels and dwellings, present a very imposing appearance. Chicago re minds me somewhat of Newark, New Jer sey, although it is of course much larger. Here nearly all the great railways of the West converge, bringing from the North, South and West immense trains of livestock,' wheat, lumber and coal. I was glad to iearn that the city had never been more prosperous. Trade and business of all kinds are unusually active. Although the wheat crop has not been good, it has by no means proved a failure, and the present corn crop of the West is the best ever raised. Most of it will be consumed in feeding stock, which it is to be hoped will, in future years, supply your Eastern cities with an abundance of meat at reasonable pricee• -- The Bucks County Intelligencer says : A cor respondent at Quakertown communicates to us some expressions usea by Colonel Davis in a public speech made last fall at the tavern of E. T. Sterner, in that place. He is repre sented to have said on that occasion : "If Abraham Lincoln is re-elected to the presi. dential chair, take my word for it this will be the last chance you will ever have to vote for a Pre sident of the United States." This corresponds exactly with other sentiments publicly ex pressed by Colonel Davis after he had left the army, and with the course of his paper while he was still in the service. His, own declare tions show that he stands upon the same po litical platform as Frank Hughes, William B. Reed, and other deadly oppertents of the war for Union and freedom. His position is as far as possible removed from thakof the gallant Hartranft, whO never professed one set of 'principles in the - field - While doing his best to establish the opposite policy at home.
