First Snow of the Season.
For the information of those who are
interested in weather statistics, we record
the fact that the Orst snow of the season
fell on Sunday evening last, which disap
peared in a-short time after it reached
the ground.

WERZE SENTENCED TO DEATH.
It is announced that Capt. Wirz. the
keeper of the Andcrscnvillc Prison, is to
be executed on Frida' at the Old Capi
tol Prison, Washington City. This de
cision has been all along expected.
Tim sentence was communicated to
him yesterday afternoon by General Au
gur, Captain Walbridgc and Major Rus-
sell, aud received by him with much e-
nuauimity and sangfroid. He said it
was what he had expected, not because
he considered he merited it, but that be
had made up his mind he was to be made
the "scapegoat" for all the criminals of
the Confederacy, and at trfe conclusion
remarked, "Well, 1 suppose it must be
done." In a moment or two he looked
across the passage iu the direction of Gen
eral Uriscoe's cell, which is immediately
opposite his own, and called out to him,
"General, I'm to be hung."
A .New Hisory of the Great Rebellion
To people at a loss to choose among
thi msnv works on the Rebellion, wc call
their attention to one just issued by L
Stcbbins, Hartford, Ct., from the able pen
of the retcnt editor of the Army and Xa
ry Journal. A perfect, history of the Re
bellion wc cannot expect in this genera
lion ; but this is about the most trustwor
thy narrative of the events that led to
and the progress of the war that we have
seen and it must rank among the best con
temporary authorities. It is not a splur
ging book about battles, or a political dis
quisition, but a clear, perspicuous, easily
aud compactly written account of the war,
such as nine people out of ten read, aud
will like to read. As a book of reference
it will be highly valued, since it contains
statistics, official documcuta, and careful
prepared biographical notices that every
editor and politician, at least will appre
ciate. The style is lucid, and the meth
od orderly, and the very simplicity and
Btraight-forwarduess of the narrative will
commend it to all classes.
The advantage of having such a work
in one well printed volume will be evi
bent to all, even to those who do not re
gard the expense. Nothing of import
ance seems to be omitted to render it a
complete narrative so far as contempora
ry information can mako it. Although
it has been a long time in preparation it
has all been carefully revised since the
war ended. The publication of import
ant documents, and the dicovery of new
material rendered this necessary. It
speaks well for the conscientiousness of
the author that some chapters, as, for in
stance, that relating to Dull Run, have
been entirely re-written.
The study of the author and publisher
has been to present in one compact vol
ume as complete a histor of the war as
is possible, aud thus place it within reach
of the mass of readers. What they want
now is a clear and impartial resume of the
war. This they have, so far as wc can
judge, iu this volume.
It is handsomely illustrated, contaius
many maps and diagrams, and over thir
ty portraits of heroes and statesmen, and
closes with a full index..
Laborers in the Oil Regions.
The Oil It-gister siys that the oil region
is well pupplied with laborers at present and
that parlies proposing to come there, who
have to depend upon their daily labor for a
eubBistance, would do well, probably, tostay
where they are. The price of bo.ird there
is high, and all other articles in proportion.
Unless a working man has steady employ
ment, he will find it difficult to get along.
The inclement g-ason of tbe year is close
at hand, which will Piupend a great deal of

fcegJThe funeral of Sergeant Jacob F.
Williams, as announced in our last, took
place on Thursday, 2nd inst., at ten o'
clock, A. M., and was largely attended
by relatives and sympathizing friends
He was buried with full military honors,
Capt. "Cicero II. Drake, superintending
that part of it.
The funeral services were conducted
by the Rev.'s Paxson and Everitt. Af
tcr the burial the procession returned to
the M.E. Church and Mr. Paxson preach
ed an interesting and eloquent discourse
from the text :
"I have fought a good fight." 2nd Tim
othy, 4 th chap, and part of theTih verse.
The speaker remarked, that this world
is a scene of conflict, from the cradle to
the grave. We are all obliged to contend
against many obstacles, aud many foes,
whether we seek for temporal or etern
al good. Of this truth, Paul h id bitter
experience his path was a thorny one,
but he trod it triumphantly, aud could
say, at the close, "I have fought a good
fight."
Our deceased friend was a soldier he
was engaged in a great conflict he fell
on the battle-field and wc may apply to
him the language, "I have fought
good fight."
I. He fought a good fight, as a soldier
of his country. He battled in a good
and glorious cause, the cause of truth
and rigtcousness of order and liberty, of
humauity and of God : he fQught to dc
fend aud preserve our liberties, our rights,
our institutions, and our country. Honor
to the brave men, who took their lives in
their hands, and risked them, and laid
them dowu in their country's cause.
He fought against a iciclccd and hate
ful foe. Perhaps some good men may
have been concerned in the Rebellion
even good men may err : but the Rebel
lion itself was wicked, fiendish, damnable,
without palliation, or excuse a crime a
gainst every man, old or young, rich or
poor, white or black a crime against
man, a sin against God. Wc may, aud
should forgive the sinner, but may we
and our chiWrcn ever hate the sin !
II. lie fought a good fight, against
imorality and sin. lie resisted the al
lurements oi vice, so common in tne
camp ; and we have reason to hope that
he overcame the great enemy, through
faith in the Son of God. He was iu child
hood, a scholar in the Sabbath School,
and then a diligent and earnest Sunday
School teacher, and a regular attendant
on public worship. While a prisoner for
three months in Libby, he wrote to his
parents that he had read his Testament
through, indicating that his thoughts
were turned to holy things. Subsequently
he wrote "If I should fall, do not grieve
or weep" his mind sccmiug impressed
with his coming decease, and reconciled
to the will of God. He lell, wc trust in
the arms of Jesus.
III. Finally, he fought a good fight in
that he fought not in vain .' Thank God!
he fell in the hour of victory. We have,
indeed, suffered much ; millions have
been spent, and thousands have fallen,
but not in vain ! Union, Order, Libert-.
Truth and Right, have triumphed it
was a good fight !
j
The speaker concluded by exhorting
his comrades to fight the good fight oi
faith, aud offering some consolation to the
mouruinir relatives.
At the conclusion of the services a gen
eral invitation was given to all present to
partake of a dinner at Peter Williams'
house, and many accepted the invitation.
Important Bank Decision.
The suit of the United States against the
Columbia Bank of Pennsylvania, was tried
in the United States Court, before Judges
Grier and Cadwalader, and decided in favor
oftheB:.nk. This decision settles an im
portant question for the State Banks subject
to tax on their circulation, for we learn that
the present Commissioner of Internal Reve
nue concurs in the decision made. Under
the Act of Congress of June 30, 1 604, a
monthly duty or tax of one twelfth of one per
cent, was directed to be levied upon the av
erage amount of circulation by any Bank-
arid an additional duty of one-sixth of one per
ceni, upon the average amount ol circulation
beyond ninety per cent, of capital, which
two taxes the Bank paid without scruple,
inc iormer commissioner, Mr. Lewis msis
ted, that instead of the tax of one-twelfth o
one per cent, on the average, and one-sixth
ot one per cent, on the excess beyond nine
ty per cent, of capital, the Bank t-hould pay
. if.L r . .
one-iweiiui oi on per cent, aud also one-
sixth of one per cent, on the average circula
tion issued by the Bank, in the case ofth
Columbia, a difference of 49037 against the
iienk. lhis was reiusei!, and a cape stated
agreed to, upon which, after argument by
air. urnpin ior me united states, and Hon
Thad. Stevens, of Lancaster, for the Bank,
the Court directed judgment to be entered
in favor of the Bunk, which, of course, is an
end of the claim lor the additional tax.

A Profitable Establishment.
Among the wonders of our country few
thiugs arc more remarkable than th
growth of the city of Chicago. Within
the memory of persons not greatly advan
ccd in years it was a frontier town o
comparatively little importance ; but a
vivid idea of the business of "this grea
grain market" of the northwestern States
at the present time, may be formed from
an inspection of the following statistics o
the' operations of its post office for a quar
ter of a year :
The uumber of letters that passed
through the Chicago post office during
the quarter ending September 30, as
shown by the books of the general post
office, was 1,077,963. The receipts of the
office from letters and newspaper postage
during the same period were $88,798 37
812,120 was paid for registered letters
The expenses of the office were $27,4SG
03, and the net balance paid over to the
government after the prepayment of al
expenses was $bS,848 02.
Not many years ago it was a matter o
great doubt if "three-ceutpostage" could
be made to pay the expense of conveying
letters; but notwithstanding the great
increase in the cost of everything conse
quent upon the changed condition of the
country and the cnaracter of the curren
cy, it is found that a considerable reve
nue may be derived from the post-office
establishment. There arc not many in
terior cities which yield so great a profit
in tins way as uiucago (Joes, anu certain
ly none whose increase is in the same pro
portion.
A number of Drafted Men, who luid

SHOCKING ACCIDENT IN NEW YOBK.
Explosion of a Largo Torpedo-iwrty
Persons Killed or Wounded.
rw Vnrk- Nov. 5. At 11:30 A. M.,
nlosion occurred in front of
the Wyoming Hotel, No. 333 Greenwieh
Street, shattering tnc irom oi uio uuiwi
and breaking nearly all the glass in the
building opposite and along tiie square
where the hotel is situated. Two men
were killed and niue wounded.
A short time since a guest ot the tiotci
.. .. i i:n 1
left a box as security ior nis oiu, auu
nromised to call soon and redeem it.
The box was placed in the baggage-room,
in Mtinr.rn of a norter. 'lhis morning
i IKiiintr (rnin tlo nnv ;nu
it was taken by two men and earned to
the sidewalk. Just as they reacnea tne
sidewalk the explosion occurred, killing
both the mcu who were carrying the box,
aud doing much damage, as above men
tioned. The police arrested all the per
sons stopping at the hotel, and the mat
ter is now beinji investigated. The ex
plosion was very loud, aud attracted the
attcutiou ot persons wno were a ume irum
the scene of the occurrence.
The report sounded like the discharge
of two heavy pieces oi orunauce, mo imu
tion of a second apart. Its effect was
terrible. The office of the hotel, winch is
also used as a bar-room, was filled with
nersons. all of whom were prostrated.-
Many were wounded by flying pieces of
"lass, while others were nurieu across uie
room and dashed with violence against
the walls, bar, stove and furniture.
No one escaped without some injury,
while many were wouuded seriously.
The hotel was seriously injured. Not
a pane of glass was left iu the windows,
every door was burst open, sonic taken
off their hinges, and others split from top
to bottom. The mirrors in the parlors,
two very fine and cosily ones, were shive
red to atoms. The furniture in the par
lors and other apartments, was broken
and displaced. Beds were thrown across
rooms : chairs, stands and tables not only
thrown down, but in many instances hur
led against the walls with force enough
to break them.
The buildings on the block between
J
Duane and Jay-sts., on which the bote
is situated, were also much injured. Tlx
hotel is near the corner of Duane st., but
every house on the block was more o
less injured. Every window was shat
tered, the doors of the stores and dwell
ings broken open, and the chimneys
thrown down.
The box, it will be remembered, was
placed on the sidewalk near the curb.
When it exploded it lore a hole in the
pavement about four feet square and two
and a half deep, sending the heavy rim
of the curb across the street.
Singular to state, not a particle of th
box, its contents, or the Hag-stone on
which it stood, are to be found. About
one half of the stone, which was four feet
square and , three inches thick, still re
mained, but the remainder had disappear
ed. Not a vestige of any sort could be
found, though a crowd of inquisitive ones
commenced a search and coutinucd it uu
til each and every one gave it up in di3
gust.
Capt. Petty, upon learning the par
ticulars of the occurrence, ordered Petec
tive Fields to put himslef upon the track
of Leers, aud arrest him as soon as pos
siblc.
Detective Fields, though well known
as one of the best detectives in this city
before was so fortunate or so shrewd, for
in an hour and ten minutes from the time
he received the order he handed Leers
over to Capt. Petty.

Finance and Business.
The-return of peace is being marked
by returning activity in trade and com
merce, opening up as it has a brisk com
merce with the South. The great staple
of the South is sought for actively, to
meet tho h'ome demand for consumption,
aud foreign demand for export. The sup
ply is far below the needs of the market.
Cotton is moving briskly from the South

in insufficient quantities, and the price
of this raw material has riseu consider
ably, and will rise further.

it has averaged 642-1,167 a day, or equal
to a weekly aggregate of $2,515,002.
The income ot the government trom

October, reached $20,407,983. During

engineer was at brcikfast. An Irishman,
to gratify curiosity, stepped on and open
ed the valve, letting on a full head of
steam. For a moment the great rush of
steam drove the wheels around scr-rapid-ly
that the engine stood fctill, and the
Irishman jumped off. Then, witk a
bound, away it went down the road at the
rate of seventy or eighty miles an hour,
for about three miles, when it ran iuto
two cars loaded with lumber, scattering
them like chaff, but at the same time
smashing itself Into a useless heap. No
one was killed, but it is our opinion that
the Irishman ought to have taken the
ride and the chances of the cugiue, smash
aud all.
