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

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.

in the manufacture of cotton looms. A large
pistol factory, owned by the Cooper 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

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE.
IMMENSE LOSS OF COAL OIL.
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

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,

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.

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. '

TEE CONFIDENCE GMIN—AN OLD GENTLEMAN
SWINDLED OUT OF $1,1156.
An old gentleman stoppin at the Continental
Hotel, was swindled out of sl,l g
50on Friday evening.
It was the old. story. A conversation with a man
who professed to be in the enihloy of somebody the
old gentleman bad dealings with, tile presentation
of a bill by a third party, who could not be put oil, and
the borrowin obtained oney for a few minutes, un
til it could befrom the cashier at the coun
ter. The sum required to settle the bill was $l,OOO,
and when that was handed over the sharper said
that he might as well have *250 more, and the addi
tional amount was given; The old gentleman in a
very few minutes afterwards realized the fact that
he had been victimised.
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

believe that they should of right share in the pre

sympathies of tile public will doubtless go with the
miners, in their struggle against the coal capital

The stock market was very dull on Saturday, and

NEW YORK, Sept. 27, 1865.
To the lion. 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.

The chief features of Wall street are a partial
stringency of money due - in part to temporary
speculative causes, and a general desire among the
weak outside operators to sell out, and escape fur
ther losses from their 111-08ViBed confidence in any
- Immediate further inflation of the currency.
The loan market' is less stringent to-day. The
rate is, however, 7 per cent., with a fair amount
of transactions at 6.
The partial stringency yesterday and this morn
ing is attributed to the action of a leading bear
speculator, who is reported to have called in or
procured to be called in loans to the amount of Ave
millldns.
The stock market opened with a decided disposi
tion to sell, and prices are lower. At the close
there was less' depressioia, with some symptoms or
recovery.
