t 1 4,-;i ' i m r t z 5 I MONDAY, OCTOBER 'J. 1665: 11.11000 SPEECH BY GRANT, SENIOR Lieutenant General GRANT, although one of the foremost warriors of the world, can didly declares that he cannot make a speech, but his venerable father gives the best pm --sible evidence that he can, and do it well, too. A few days since, General GRANT Visited Georgetown Ohio, the home of his youthful days, and was accompanied thi ther by JERE R. GRANT, his fathq. A Union meeting was held at Georgetown on the afternoon of the day of the General's arrival, at which the old gentleman was one of the speakers. The following ex tract from his remarks gives satisfactory evidence that General GRANT does not • • inherit the disability under which he la bors 4 , It gives me a great deal of pleasure to look so many of my old friends in the face again, and have the privilege of saying farewell, for I never expect to see you again. awe have just passed through a severe con. filet—a gigantic rebellion, a cruel, bloody, sa vage and wicked civil war—a war that is a dis grace to civilization. But how did you get out When the country was assailed by rebels, its flag fired upon, your - friends set forth ; they sacrificed the comforts of domestic life, the happiness of their firesides; they put. on the army blue, took the death-dealing musket, and slung knapsack and blanket, and went forth determined to crush the rebels and put down rebellion. They did put them down, crushed the rebellion and subdued the traitors to the Union, and now they are on their marrow bones seeking pardon, and your friends have returned home to your hearths and hearts. "Now there is a great duty reallinapon you. Alma fight is transferred to thelW. It is your duty now to vote down this misera ble Copperhead faction. It is said we have conquered a peace. This is true ;it is not a petty, patched-up Copperhead-Democratic peace; it is One obtained by the sword, and the youngest child is not living who will see the sword again raised against the Govern ment. It is your duty, as patriotic citizens of Brown county, not to allow this old Copper head, Lacomptou faction to be gaivantzed into life, on thei pretense that it s the only party that can sav unless untry. I don't know how that could be,on theprinciple that the hair of the dog is good for the bite." The appeal of the old father of General GRANT may be read and obeyed with pro fit in Pennsylvania, especially by those who recollect that Colonel Devis, the Demo cratic candidate for Auditor General of thig State, declared only, a few days ago that the great battles that ended the rebellion and saved the republic "were only so much blood shed unnecessarily." - Public Amusements. AECH-STUEET THEATHE.—Otir cotemporary, the Sunday Vetch, in its theatrical column, yesterday, finds fault with Mrs, F. IY. Lander, for her complete self-possession on the stage. That which is most pleasing - to the a u dience, seems greatly to displease the Dispatch. It is useless, however, to tell our readers what the Dispatch thinks on theatrical subjects, as the =warranted and senseless assaults upon Edwin Forrest have earned for it rather an un enviable reputation in that line. Friday and Saturday [evenings "Masks and Faces " was produced at this theatre. Mrs. Lander as Peg Woffington cold not, we think, be ;surpassed. Her whole soul was thrown into the play, and we saw not Mrs. lander, but Peg Wegingion. lklisa E. Price, as Mrs. Vane, was also good. Mr. Rankin, as Sir Charles Pomander, deserves praise. But the great features of the play (after the star, of course,) were Mr. Owen Mar lowe as Colley Cibber, and Mr. F. F. Mackay as Lysimacus Triplet. The "thrilling drama!" of the "Smuggler's Retreat" eoncluded the Evening's entertainment. The " Smuggler's Retreat" is a wonderful play; we do not won der that it is called thrilling. It is, however, rather out of place at the Areh, and would ap.. - pear to much better advantage at the Bowery, New York. Our comic friend, Stuart Robson, was, however, very fine, and to him this minus- drama" owes much. This evening Mrs. Lander appears as Joan D'Arc, in the play of that name. Monday evening, October 16th, Mr. and Mrs. Barney Williams. Saw CusemETlT-STREET THE/OPEL—After much preparation,the dramatic romance from Alexander Dumas' WOrli,Monte Critto,will this evening be produced. M'me. Theresa Wood, danseuse, and Mr. George Smith, ballet-mas ter, have been engaged. The services of a new COrps de ballet have also been secured. The play is cast to the full extent of the large com pany of the Chestnut, and, from present ap pearances, will be put upon the stage in a first class manner. WALster-sraawr Tacesitc.—Mrs. D. P. Row ers this week begins the fifth week of a very successful engagement at this theatre. This lady having well succeeded in her impersona tion of Leah, the drama will, by special re quest, be reproduced this evening. The come diens. of "Mr. and Mrs. Peter White," With Miss Ger Men in the cast, is the afterpieee. To - morrow evening " East Lynne." THE Alkinineati THEATBE.—The new drama, ti Philadelphia by Gas Light," which was eve. ry evening, last week, performed at this then. Ire, is a curious representation. After patient ly itting through an hour of the performance of this play, we must confess that we were tin able to tell or even imagine what it was all about. The acting though, by-the-by, was quite fair throughout, and Miss Fisher can ,changelier Costume very quickly. Mr. Hemple though is the life of the play. Without him it would be intolerable. " Philadelphia by Gaslight" is announced for to-night, and every evening this week. It will be followed on each occasion by the "French Spy on Horse. bacu," Mlle. Augusta is atill here and her 3aalletS are surely the most entertaining part of the performance at this theatre. We must not forget the Talmo Brothers ; they are supe rior in their peculiar line. Aminamy or Musm.—Our readers should not forget that the engagement of Mr. and Mrs, Charles Kean, which commences at the Acade my Thursday evening, is positively liidted to five nights. MASTER nIetLATID Cons:ll.—We take pleasure i n re ferring our music-loving citizens to the advertisement, in another column, of the con.. certs to be given at Musical Fund Hall, on Thursday and Friday evenings of this week, by thla remarkable boy. It will be remem bered that this same youth created a great sensation last spring, in connection with the Choral Festival by the Trinity Choir of NBW York, at St. Clement's Church. We shall now have an opportunity of hearing him in ope ratic as well as sacred music, and if we may judge from the criticism of the press of the flew England States, where he has been sing ing, our citizens will enjoy arare treat. We understand he will sing Arditi's celebrated waltz, "Il Bacio." This, of itself, will be worth the price of admission, which we find the man ager has fixed at fifty cents, and seventy-five cents for reserved seats. The sale of reserved seats commences this morning at Trumpler's music store ; therefore tai who desire to at. tend the first concert shelled be early. • EXVINSINE AID VERY ATTRACTIVE SALE OF TESYNOTI exm gAxoNv DAUB Goons, &e., Tula DAy.-We call especial attention to the unu sually large and attractive sale of French and Aaaony axs , geeds, 85e., embracin g 1,000 lots of staple and fancy articles, including 2,000 piens dress goods, of recent importations ; 350 pieces black and Axney silks, of all grades ; 60 pieces velvets and bonnet satins; 800 pieces white gooas ; 300 pieces French shirting and opera flannels ; 1,500 dozen Paris gloves and gaunt lets ; 250 cartons bonnet and velvet ribbons and trimmings; 30 eases gingham umbrellas- Also real Pusher laces, shawls, napkins, fancy goods, to be peremptorily sold by cats..- .Wpm on four months' credit and part for eash, this morning, commencing at 10 o'clock, by John B.

Rowland, and their rolling mills alto, are in full work, night and day, while the nu ineraii4 eaten mule, tlyeeworkil, =mines, machine-works, etc., have all the labor their hands can perform. In Bridesburg, the rifle factory formerly under the superintendence of litrAi. Jenks, has been transferred to a j cant stock company, who will engage themselves in the manufacture of cotton looms. A large pistol factory, owned by the Cooper Manufac turing Company. is engaged in the manufac ture kof the gun which the rebels supposed, from the rapidity of its tiring, "ground out" shot. The natural result of this manufacturing prosperity is that building operations in the *) ancient village" are numerous and exten sive. Some very fine stores and dwellings are in Course of erection on the main street, add. frig to its attractiveness. Frankford, after a while, will be as important in position, as it is already meritorious in worth. Emigration tO the Southern StateN.

About three o'clock, yesterday afternoon, a most destructive tire occurred at Dickerson; street wharf, among a lot of coal oil, which was awaiting shipment to various points. There was an extensive range of sheds in whlch the Oil, amounting to 4,000 barrels, containing one hundred and sixty thousand gallons, was stored. These sheds were used mainly as a bonded warenouse in which the oil was kept until the duty could be paid. Of the entire amount of oil, about three thousand barrels were in bond, the remainder being in the free shed. Ali this was consumed, including the shedding, and a frame counting-house. The oil was owned by a number of parties in this city, New York and Pittsburg, Including the following : Lemuel Wilcox, A.R. McHenry J. M. Ellis & Son, Warren King & Co., R. II Post, Jw T. Grierson and William Pierson. The total loss will amount to one hundred thousand dollars, about fifty per cent. of which is cover ed by insurance, some of the parties being ful ly insured and others but.partially so. On the same premises was a two-story brick stable owned and occupied by Mr. Robert Earls-, dealer in lime, sand, cordwood, &c., whichwas destroyed, with a quantity Of liar. nests, feed, W Two horses, which were in the stable, were rescued: A number of carts, used by him in his business, were destroyed, together with a quantity of cordwood. Ms loss will somewhat exceed three thousand dollars. which is partially covered by insu rance. 'ln the second story of the stable, a man was sleeping, who made a narrow escape with his life, but with true pluck and bravery, be set to work, and was very efficient in res cuing the horses and saving the books of his employer. lie lost all his effects and a Con siderable sum of money. We regret that we are unable to give the name of this gallant man. Thee conflagration, as we viewed it, was in describably grand. Over the entire Delaware front of the city hung a cloud of dense smoke, like a sable pall, creating great excitement, and causing the wildest speculations from those who were in the upper districts. In the lower part of the city,. the excitement was in tense. Nearly the entire population were on theground to witness the sight, one of the grandest ever vouchsafed to the citizens of Philadelphia. Those who witnessed the great fire in this city fifteen years ago can readily form an idea of the grandeur and sublimity of the scene. The tongues of flame, as they mounted towards the sky, resembled the fires of a volcano while the vast cloud of minutely divided carbon soared majestically high in the air, and was then wafted by the gentle southwestern breeze towards the northeast, and remained a huge cloud against the blue empyrean. The firemen were early on hand, but they could do little other than to prevent the flames from spreading to the surrounding pro perty. To thvow water upon the roaring flames would have been but adding fuel to the fire. The blazing oil would only have floated on the surface of the water, and then carried to spread devastation and destruction else. where. It was a magnificent sight to watch the ex• piosion of the barrels of coal oil. An explo sion would be heard, and at the same time there would be seen a mighty burst of fire, and then the flames would roar more fiercely, than before. To attempt to extinguish it would have been fruitless. All that could he done was to keep the fire confined to its original limits and let it burn itself out, and so when there was no more fuel the flames were stayed. This fire, though not so destructive to pro- IMAY AS that of last winter, and not fatal to life like that was, will long be remembered by the people of our city. THE INCREASE OF THE MENIgTI37—IR TERESTING SERVICES AT ST. MARK'S ORITROIIe , Last evening the Protestant Episcopal Church of Bt. Mark's was tilled with a large audience, to witness the services consequent upon the celebration of the third triennial anniversary Of the " Society of the Increase of the Minis try," under the charge of the Protestant Epis copal clenominition. bishop Kemper presided, assistedby Bishops Chase and Talbot. Evening prayers were read by the Rev. Mr. Rundy and the Rev. Mr. Gil lette, of Texas. The report of the society was read by the secretary, Rev. A. B. Goodrich. The income of the society. during the past year was $15,000, and for the past three years $31,283. Obligations for the coming year have already been assumed to the amount of about $12,000, and to meet the legitimate demand upon the treasury at least $20,000 will be need ed. The work of the society isgoing bravely on, and it is steadily increa.singits scope. Its object is not so much to increase the numbers of the ministry as to add to it well-qualified persons, thus increasing its efficiency. After the report was read eloquent addresses were delivered by Rev. Bishop Talbot, Rev. Mr, Martin, of Indiana, and the Rev. Mr. Gil lette. The society, which has for its object the in creasing of the ministry of the Episcopal Church by the education of suitable young men for that purpose who need aid in their preparation, was organized in 1859. The num ber of scholars )vho have been aided during the last three years is 143, and since the orga nization of the society 208, of which thirteen were assisted from the "sons of the clergy' , fund, and the remainder from the g•eneral fund. These scholars were gathered from nearly allthe dioceses of the Church. The num ber of these who have been ordained is 77. The music from the organ was of the highest order. Selections from the Psalms were sung antiphonally by the choirs, standing near the chancel, with excellent effect, At the close of the services a very beautiful and appropriate anthem was performed. This evening the music will be repeated, and services will be held, when addresses may be expected from Bishop A. C. Cove, of Western New York, and Bishop McCoskry , of Michigan. Rev. Drs. Littlejohn, Malian, Craik, and Clark son will also deliver short addresses. THE PRESENT CRAM - PIONS OF BASE BALL.—The Athletic Rase-ball Club of this city has won the honor of being the champion QUM 91 the United States with less trouble than they expected. They have challenged the Atlantic Club of Brooklyn, and that or ganization has seen fit to decline, for what real reason we do not know, except that they are willing the Athletics should be the cham pions without entering the arena to win such an honor. On the 28th of August the Athletics went to Washington, and beat thy. crack club there—the Nationals—the game standing, Ath letics, 8S ; Nationals, 12, et. beer seven to one. The day &lowing . the Atlantics went down, and in a contest with the samttelub were the victors, but only by a score of 81 to 19. They then prevailed upon a committee of the Na tionals to proceed to- llaltimore (where the Athletic Club was playing the Pastimes), and ask the Philadelphians to play a match at WWII/IMM nqXt day. This the latter de clined on account of the fatigue of their play ers, but stated that they would play the con test for the championship any time in October. Anxious to have this contest come off, the Captain of the Nationals, Mr_ Gorman, went to New York last week, and, after a conference with the Atlantics, telegraphed to Col. Fitz erald that the Brooklynites would play the Philadelphians if the latter would challenge them. Last Monday Col. F., who is president of the Athletics, sent such a challenge, pro posing that three games should be played—the first in Washington—and that the winner of two should be declared the champions of the United States. Not reccivi.e, an answer he telegraphed to the same effect on Wednescility, and only on Friday received a reply that he Atlantics were not aware, except by heresay, of any each an arrangement to play on Mon day (to-day), anu therefore they would not be present. This declination, as we remarked before, makes the Athletics the champion club of ,the United States. We feel sure the gentlemen of the latter club would much rather have preferred winning their honor on the field. They, together with the Nationals, of Wash ington, endeavored to have such a contest as would decide which was the best club in,this country. We trust the matter is a misunder standing on the part of the Atlantics, but in face of the facts, as we have stated them, we do not see how it could be so. A couple of weeks ago the champion erieket club of New York was defeated by the Young America' Club, of this city, so that now Phila delphia can boast of holding the Champion ship of the two athletic sports of the country, cricket and base ball. New York can claim the superiority in "the manly art of self-de fence" and kindred sports. A CHAPTER OF ACCIDENTS.—SeyeraI ac cidents occurred on Saturday and Sunday. Lewis Foster, 22 years of age, who resides in Fourth street,. between South and Shippen, was knocked down and run over by the Ma rion Hose, yesterday afternoon, while the ap paratus was being taken to the scene of the conflagration. He sustained a fracture of three ribs on the left side. • James DfcGreery, forty-onel years old, but lately arrived from Fort Wayne, where he re sides, was arrested for some misdemeanor yesterday morning, and lodged in the station house. While in the cell he endeavored to commit suicide, by stabbing himself in the neck and arm. He bled profusely, but no harm is apprehended from the injuries. • Thomas Kennedy, employed in Sellergs fours dr W'i'llowstrea, near aixteentb, had his right leg broken, on Saturday, by a piece Of iron falling upon it. VineentHope, aged eight years,liad his right thigh broken, on Saturctay‘fternoon, by being run over by a hay wagon, Front street, near Combs , alley. An of the above persons were conveyed to the hospital. A STRAISGE SCENE.—Yesterday after noon, . being called by - business to the lower part of the city, we, .On our return, passed through the "five points" of Philadelphia— Trout street. here a strange scene was pre sented ; not strange in itself, but strange -be cause it was enacted there. A. preacher stood upon the steps of a shaky negro hut, and was exhorting a motley assembly to repent. The depraved - , diseased, and disfigured woman here stood side by side with the well-dressed pickpocket; and even while the man told them of the sours danger, a poor creature staggered before him on her way to a neigh boring rum-shop, there to replenish the emp tied bottle which she carried, 'The voice of the speaker attracted strangers to the spot, and one could tell by their appearance and surprised looks that it was their first visit to such a place. Such, reader, is but a faint glinapse of the misery and sin which exists in OUT city. PEACt AFTER Wax.—We yesterady af ternoon saw six soldiers, each one upon crutches. The were going two-by-two, and still remembering the military drill, kept time upon the pavement with their crutches, as they went their way. Three had brit one leg apiece and, tile ethers were badly wounded. Yet these brave fellows, who had been so maimed in the efforts to crush the late cause less rebellion, were not in the least down hearted, but laughed and chatted as they went On. What do we not owe such men as these 1 SERIOUS Brzumio.—About three .o'clock on Saturday afternoon Ellen McMenamin, aged thirty ilve years, was seriously burned at Mc Pine street. Her clothing might fire from a kitchen range. She was taken to her home, 767 South Seventh street. DIED IN THE VAN.—Edward Campbell, aged fifty years, died in the prison-van on satairday morning, while being, taken to prison. Fouxn DEAD.—James Harrington was found dead in bed yesterday morning, at 605 South Front street. FATAL RAILROAD ACClDENT.—Catharine Myers, aged forty-stx.years, was run over by a train on the Reading itailroad, in the Twenty second ward on Saturday morning, and in stantly killed. MECHANISM." .ATROCIOUS MURDER AND ROBIIERY-.. 'ESCAPE Op THE AssAsslNS.—Early on .Satur day morning, the community were startled by a report that a most brutal and atrocious mur der had been cam:bitted at the dental depot of Samuel S. White, in Arch street, :below Sixth. It appears that between. six and seven o'clock in the morning in question, the body of Jamee Needs, the colored porter eMployed at the establishment, was found behind the counter with such' cuts and bruises upon his person as showed that a foul and cruel murder had .been committed. The head was beaten almost to a jelly, and by the side Of. the corpse was found a hammer, stained with tile blood Of the • victim, with which. the deed had been committed. Ilia bands were bloody, as if there bad been a struggle between himself and his murderers. A sticßof 'wood, also bloody, and a handkerchief, also crimsoned with the vital fluid, were found near by, Ahich, be iienti, had been used as a gag, as the front teeth of the dead man wero fo-reed in and some broken off. The lips were also badly cut. But this was not all. The doors of the fire proof were found open,and papers and letters . were found scattered in profusion over the floor. The murderers had committed a rob bery, besides taking .life. A quantity of pla 'Una i. - Ire and geld plate had been taken, to• gether with a sum of money, aggregating in value about three thousand dollars. It was the duty of the porter to go to the store at an early hour, sweep it out and open the doors so as to be ready for the transaction of business. On Saturclaymorning the private watchman employed in the bending had gone home before the porter came. An inquest was held in the afternoon by Coroner Taylor, when the above facts were testified to by persons connected with the establishment. The body was found a few minutes before seven o'clock, The feet and axms were tied, and a stick of—wood, appa rthrtly a banister, was found by its side. Morgan, one of the employes, testified that Needs came to him shortly after six o'clock for the keys, which was the last time lie was Seen alts e. - It was also in evidenee that the porter was not allowed to let any one enter the store nor to sellgoods. It is probable, therefore, that he was followed, approached from behind and stunned with a blow, and then gagged and tied. Dr. Shapleigh, who made the post-mortem examination, testified, as the result of his in vestigations, that the hand and knuckles of the deceased presented evidence of a conflict. The right eye was much contused, evidently by a blow from a hammer. There were wounds above each ear, and. several on the back part of the head. No clots of blood were found' on the brain, but that in the vessels was entirely coagulated. The teeth in the upper jaw, were broken off; those in the lower Jaw were also broken, while the jaw itself was fractured, These injuries were evidently caused by the force used in pressing the gag into his mouth. Dr. Shapleigh then advanced the following as his opinion in regard to the cause of death : " In the first place, the man had been knee ea senseless by a blow on the head, nut tut could not have caused his death. Sudden death, when caused by injury to the brain, is shown by the pressure of blood upon that or gan. We must, therefore, look else where for the cause of death. This handkerchief, found in the moutli, and this stick, found near the body, had evidently been need to gag the de ceased. The appearance of the organs indi cate that death was caused by strangulation, which was done while he was insensible from the effects of the blows. The robbers might not have intended to take his life they re moved the gag before leaving. There was not enough injury to the brain to cause such speedy death.” A. further examination will take ranee this afternoon. FIRES.—On Saturday night, about half past ten o'clock, the extensive range of frame stables connected with the hotel of Mr. Eng. lish, in Camden, were destroyed by fire. The fire made's, brilliant light, and was seen from all parts of this city. A number of our fire companies ran to the ferry, and some suc ceeded in getting across. One of the ferryboats which was lying at the wharf at Camden was partially burned. The picker house at Atlanden's mill, on the Wissahickon, was partially destroyed by tire on Saturday morning, with a quantity of stock. Loss *2,500 ; insured. The flre about noon on Saturday was at Ju lius Burkheadts hotel, Twenty-fifth street and avenue, the roof of which way slightly burned.

The oars are at the Harbor Police Station waiting for identification. HOW A JERSEYSIAN WAS SWINDLED. Some people never read the newspapers, or if* they do they pay no attention to their contents. The "confidence garnet' has been explained time and again, vet scarcely a week passes over without somebody being swindled by that process. The latest victim is a Jerseyman who came to the city to sell calves. While on Market street, near the wharf, on Saturday he was accosted by a bland in dividual who inquired—" Your name is "No," was the reply. "Excuse inc," said the other, " Ent yon resemble Mr. B—. of Jersey, so much that I made a mistake. , "Oh," remarked the Jerseyman "I come from Jersey too," and forthwith the two entered into conversation. lii a few minutes a third party stepped up and said to the man first named, "Will you pay for those blan kets now ?" Then there was fumbling in pockets, and the conclusion was the answer — I ha"rnt get the change." But want the money, said the other. my sister is not expected to live; and I must leave town this evening." " Here." said the apparent debtor to the Jerseyman," just lend me ten dollars and then step up to the Continental with mc." The money was passed over and the Jerseyman and his newly-made acquaintance went to the Continental. There the latter looked over the register fora few seconds,and then told the Jer seyman to wait while be went up to his room to get the money. The Jerseyman waited. Five minutes parsed. Pen minutes went by. rifteen minutes was up, and the Jerseyman got uneasy. He went to the office and saluted the clerk with the inquiry— , 'ls their any other way of getting out of here ex cept that pointing .to tile main stairway. "Oh yew , replied the clerk, " there are sever ways.— " Thunder," was the rejoin er, "then I've been sold," and the Jerseyman r idly left the place. PIRE-PROOP SAVE BLOWN OPEN. The grocery story of - Robert Donnell & Son on Walnut street, above Eighth, was entered on turday morning, between three and four o'clock, by boring through the back cellar door. To reach the rear of the premises the burglars must have sealed two walls. After killing a dog which was in the store the thieves got into the counting-house, and commenced operations The fire-proof was charged with gunpowder, and the explosion which ensued most have been terrific, as all the glass in \the partitions was shattered, the door of the fire proof was blown off, and a number of light articles were set on fire. The games were extinguished by the robbers. who no doubt became frihtened at the mischief - which they bad done, andleft without getting any plunder. The coal office of nines & Sheaf'', at Twenty-third and Arch streets, was also entered early on Satur day morning, by' forcing open the door. The fire proof safe was blown open, but nothing was Ob tained. ROBBERY In THE SEVENTH WARD. ' The front window of a hair-dressing establish ment, NO.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. The demand for coal is represented to be less brisk than it was at the Close of last month, and prices are still unsettled. The # iffnerB VOlfmgi Pottsville estimates the advance in coal in that re gion at about one dollar and arty cents per toil. This sudden advance has caused another strike' , in many of the collieries of the Schuylkill region,. the miners Justifying their action naturally enough in the thought that they are entitled to at least a poition of the advance demanded of consumers by tile greedy and avaricious operators." There is no good and substantial reason we think for the steady advance in the price of that most indispensable article of domestic use, And it can only now take place because the combination among the dealers is so strong that it overpowers the COMMillinY at ialg.ztiedvance is to gordaily,counte l cen A ono 4 ispringuramouthemhlers,wlic believe that they should of right share in the pre sent unexampled profits of the coat trade.

Hugh McCulloch, Secretary of Tremeury 011ie United Mate& : MAR SIR: Will you please advise me your course in regard to stolen or lost Governments. Suppose, for instance, that any broker,orlianker, buys a bond or any other issue of the Government in good faith, It being negotiable,payable to bearer, and It should prove to have been lost or stolen from former buyer or owner, do you, as Secretary of the Treasury, protect the original owner, to She prejudice of the innocent buyer ? If so, do von also protect the original owner of a compound-interest note In like manner 1 I believe under our State law the Innocent holder of like securities is protected under the law. Is there a different law for Government securities? Respectfully, A. JRNKINS, No. 44 Pine street. TilF..,:.suny 70A% REPARTFEIV,Sept ! 28, 485. &h: Your letter of the 27th has been received. There is no different law for Government than for other negotiable securities. The rights and liabili ties of parties purchasing and holding the negoti able bonds and notes of the Government-1. C. those vniLoox THE ritgSS.TPHILm)nrHIA: payable to bearer—are not affected by the fact of their being Issued by the Government. ' Whether, then, your question refers to compound interest notes, or any oilier form of these SOcitritieS, a purchaser in good faith, for a 'minable conside ration, would be protected, netwithctomding that they had before Oven lost or stolen. It has, however, been the praCtice of thli Depart ment, at the request of those losing coupon bonds and other securities payable to bearer, to enter their caveat, and. suspending payment of them when presented, to notify the_partles respectlyely, to enable.tbom to furnish the Departifient evidence touching the questions of ownership, good faith and whether the purchase was for value, so that it may act advisedly in making payments.
