Arrest of the Offender! Recovery of Coun

A few uights since two residents of Gcr

Ckuiles Moore, were arrested at thut pluce
on the charge of passing counterfeit ten
dollar bills on tho Girard Bank, It appears
these individuals have been regarded with
suspicion for some time past, but nothing
transpired to warrant their arrest until the
last week. The 'Watchtiiuu says they pro
cured two horses and a cttrriigo licin a
livery stuble and went to the Truppe, where
they broke the tonguo This they got Abru

a counterfeit ten dollar note, receiving the
change in good money. They then went
to Puttstown, whero they passed another
counterfeit note npon Mrs. Cussirher Missi.

passed by them in the upper end of the
county, but have not learned upon whom.
lliey were arrested on the complaint of
Mr. Treichlar, and were committed by Aid.
Potts. While they were in tho Magistrate's
office, it was proosed to search the prison
ers. Lewis immediately pulled off liii over
coat, threw it ou tiw floor, and requested
them to search him. The officers did so,
but fouud no spurious notes or coin on either
of them. They neglected, however, to ex
amine the overcoat. Next morning a roll of
counterfeit notes, amounting to $?390, was
found about six or eight feet from the door
of the Magistrate's office. Lewis doubtless
had them iu his overcoat ut the time he was
in the office, us ho has since confessed that he
threw them whero they were fouud.
It was thought advisable to search the
house of Lewis, which was immediately done.
In one of the rooms was found a furnace
built of bricks in the chimney place, pieces
of melted ' zinc, pieces of copper, a small
table with a vice attached, copper fillings,
&c. The floor and table burned, as if the
melted metul had been dropped, and everv.
thing bearing the evidence of some kind of a
workshop. In the garret were found cruci

LETTER FROM THE EDITOR DATED,
Wasminotojj Hot'SR.
i'Mtaueijjiiiu, j.uveinuei 10, 1030 f
Although the elections are over, and every
thing appears comparatively quiet, there are
indications thut thu political elements have
not yet settled down submissively to what
has been supposed the expressed will of the
majority, at the ballot boxes. It was sup.
posed that the election of M r. Buchanan wsb
a fixed fact, and bo such a result would have
been deemed at any previous election since
the organization of our government. The
almost overwhelming vote, at the lute elec
tion, by the opponents of slavery, has alarm
erT the fire caters of the South, aud, alreudyi
they, are organizing conventions for the
purpose of controlling the administration of
Mr. Buchanan. Gov. Weise, of .Virginia,
is uow on a visit to Mr. Buchanan, at Lan
caster, and it was positively asserted, iu
advance, thut the object of his visit is, to
obtain from Mr. Buchanan pledges in writing'
thut ha will use his influence to make Kansas
a slave Stute, and should he refuse to give
such pledges, then to 6tate to him frankly
thut the electors of Virginia, and some from
other southern Stutes, would cast their votes
for Mr. Fillmore, and thus throw the election
into the House, and as the probabilities are,
that tho House could not agree, Mr. Breck
inridge, the Vice President elect, would, by
virtue of the Constitution, become President
of the United States. Such, no doubt, is the
scheme of muuy of the designing politicians
of the South, tjuch men as Jefferson Davis.
Atchison and other uulliCers aud disuniouists,
will stop at nothing to accomplish these
measures. But will Mr. Buchanan yield
to their request ? We do not believe that be
will. His answer should be, and no doubt
will be, that he can make no pledges in
advance, and that he will administer the
affairs of government according to the Con
stitution and laws, without regard to sectionul
prejudices or tectioual interests.
There are various rumors, already, in cir
culation In regard to Mr Buchanan's Cabinet
Hon. Howell Cobb and Mr. Touccy are
both spoken of as most likely to become
members or the Cabinet. They are both
able and conservative men, and would be an
honor to the administration. Gov. Seward
is now, and has been several days at the
Washington bouse in this city. . In reply to
pne of his friends in regard to the defeat of
Col. Fremont, he remarked that " they did
not run the right horse." The Governor's
friends are preparing him for the course in
1800. He is unquestionably ene of the ablest
men in the Senate, but his peculiar views
render biin unpopular, except with his own
friends.
The news of the suspension of the Lan
caster Bank has bceu the subject of consid.
erablu comment the iast few days. The Bank
has always sustained a good repnlution, and
will, no doubt, resume operations again after
the storm has subsided.
'i'he friends of the Suubury and Erie road
are making strong efforts to put this grout
project ou a footing that will insure its early
completion. I'he lime ha arrived wheu
something must be done, and as all admit
its vast importunes to the city, something I
trust will be accomplished.

FRIGHTFUL DISASTER AT SEA.
OS3 OF THE FRENCH STEAMER
LE LYONAIS,. ,
Over On HBdre4 Live Leet,
1
from the New York Hereld, of Nov. tSj
It is onr painful duty torecod this morning
another terrible calamity at Sea. -The tas
in hand is not unlike that of the Ill-fated Arc
tic. The iron Icrsw tteamship Le Lyonnais,
Captain De Vain, sailed from this port, ou
Saturday, Nov. 1, for Havre.
'1'hirty.nine cabin passengers and thore
we;e on boaJ. Including ofBuers, crew,, cngi-,
neers, firemen aud terage pasevsngerD f
one hundred and fiftp souls. . She also hud
over twenty thousand dollars in specie on
freight. ' 1
On the night of Sunday, the 2d inst., while,
in a dense fog, Nantuvkel light-ship bearing
N. N. W., aud distant GO miles, the ship was
run into by an unkuown vessel and her stern
cot off. , Nothing more wa seen of the nn
known vessel, and it ia probable that she
went dewtl immediately.
Not so with Le Lyoonias, she remained
with her after prt full of water and tho bow
high out. ofthewaiur. All hands staid by
the wreck until tho ntSt dny, when it was
abandoned. The ship was provided with six
boats, only one of which Was a liTe'. boat.
Thut bout only bus beeu heard from.
On the moruing of Monday, after it wa9 re
solved to abandon the wreck, a raft was con
structed, and about forty persons, including
pussengers, (probably the steerage passeu
gers.) took reluge upon it. It is the opinion
of the second ollicer that this raft could not
have lived through the rough weather thut
succeeded this day that it must have been
broken to pieces, und that ull the persons on
bourd were lost. There is room for hope
thut some friendly sail might have rescued
them.
In another boat was the commander with
some of the passengers This bout was well
provided with provisions, compasses, Ac. It
was the intention of the captain to pull lor
Montaiik Point. This boat has not beju
heard from.
Another boat contained the .Fecoud mate,
Lavnire. the second enirineer. Deafour, sever
al of the crew and passengers. This is the
only boat heard from so fur.
The list, then, is, saved sixteen : missing
and probubly lost, 130.
We have no accounts of the other five
boats, and the ruTt, save that which is given
above.
The following details in relation to the sa
ved are euthered from the second mate.
The bout left the ship on the morning of
Monduy, the second. I here was a lieuvy
gule blowing, and the Captaiu resolved to
abandon th ship.' She wus then, und when
Mr. Lavnire lust saw her, with her stern
sunk below the water's edge, und her bow
high out of wuter. On Tuesday he lost
sight of the other boats. ' Thu second mute's
bout contuined eighteen persons. The
weulher wus very rough, aud thu hapless
voyauers suffered terribly. They encountered
several severe snow storms aud were short
of water
They hud claret wine, bread and preserved
moats. They were beaten about six days,
until the allei noon of (he 9th (Sunday".') and
two of their number (passengers) died during
this terrible interval. On Suuduy their eyes
were gladdened by the sight of a friendly
sail, will uli proved to be the Bremen bark
r.lise, luptuin .orilenuolou, on uourii oi
which vessel they wero immediately taken
and made us comfortable us possible. Their
limbs were frozen, aud altogether they were
iu a terrible condition.
Ou ibv uct a-v, latitude '10 (leg. bl
min. N., longitude 65 deg., 40 mill., the
Klise spoke the Humburu barque Klise,
Captain Neilsou, bound lor New "ioik. The
Bremen barque was short of wuler, nod
Captain Neilson immediately consented to
give those saved from the boat a passage to
New York. They ull availed themselves
of this offer except two of the pusBeugers,
Mr. Sbuler uud wile, who remained on board
the Bremen barque, intending to go to
Bremen. The Hamburg barque arrived
below lust evening, having on board fourteen
of the ship's company of the Lyonnais!
Two of this boat's crew died iu the bout,
which reduced their number to sixteen, all of
whom ure thus accounted for. The sufferings
of these unfortunates may be imagined. At
present they aro likely to recover, but their
iiiubc are frozen and swollen. The ladies
suffered terribly, but bore up with the
fortitude for which the sex is so eminently
distinguished in the presence of real danger.
The fate ol both the vessels is at present
uncertain, und the course of the captain of
the l.e i.younuis seems to have been injudi
cious. Her position, when abandoned, w'ould
seem to indicate that she wus tight forward,
and under such circumstances was safer thuu
bud bouts in a heavy sea.
The Lyonnais was built at Southampton,
England, aud intended for the South Ameri
can trade. Mie wus temporarily placed on
the new French line from this port to Havre,
of which Edward and Edmuud Poirrier are
the uirentB.
We have thus stated the 6imple facts of
tins terrible calumny. As the record stands,
the narrative js heart-rending. We have
hopes, however, that as the boats were di
rectly in the track of hundreds of vessels
inward and outward bound, more of the
passengers muy have been rescued. We
have no heart for further comment this
morning.

cupt iin ut & fiber v0't io, h. htaid thut a
vessel had run into on. The captain and all I
bands were at work trying to stop the leak
which had been made, with mattresses, and
bedding, but they found it to be impossible.
'I Ut) ship wag now making but little way, and
ia short time the fires in tbri furnaces were
extinguished by the water, which was pouring
it Very rapidly, TI.e pomps Were tried, but
they would not work, having benomn choked
up with coal and. eindnre. I looked about,
but could see nothing of the vessel tlint had
run into us. During tho whole of Sunday
night the crew were engaged in bailing the
vessel with buckets, pails and hogsheads,
tackling having been rigged for the purpose.
Early Monday moruing the hand., assisted
by the parMiger, began to threw the cargo
overboard, so as to lighten" tho vessel and
find out the exact place of thfl leak I but this
proved of no avail : the water continued to
increase. " " :V ",,r ' '
In the afternoon the sailors and passengers
Bet to work to construct a raft, there being
then no hopes of saving, the vessel. ' Spars
were used and portions of the cabin, such as
doors and other woodwork. The weather
whs quito pleasant until night, when ruin
fell. About 5 o'clock in tho afternoon,
everything having been got in readiness, the
boats launched nnd the ruft finished, we. all
left the ship excepting the Captain and
some of tho officers. There were five bouts
with the raft. In the boat whero I was were
eighteen persons fifteen men nnd three
wenien a married ludy. Miss Bellet, and
mvself. The second officer was in command.
o remained by the ship all night. The
weather w-aa quite cool, with rain falling.
On Tuesday morning wo purtcd from the
ship and went away. The cuptain. with sev
era! of the crew, stood by the ship, as ho
suid he would not desert her till she went
down. One of tho five boats swamped
before we left the ship, but thcv in it were
saved by the raft. We suw nothing of the
cuptain after leaving the ship. Our boat,
with the other two and the ruft. kent togeth
er until Tuesday uipht, when we lost sight of
mem in a log. We looked lor them, nut
were unable to fiud them. We had plenty
of provisions, preserved meats, vegetables
ond wine. We hud no compass. The officer
in command tried to find land, but could not.
During three days and nights we had snow,
and the coir1 at times wbb intense. Our boat
leaked, and kept the men constantly at work
bailing. Our clothing wus very scanty. On
Thursday night two men died one a passen
ger and the other a fireman. On Friday
morning the men covered our faces while
they threw the bodies of the unfortunate
men overboard. We were drenched with
spray and the waves that now and then
broke over us. M uch of the time our feet
were under wuter. The men seemed to suf
fer more than we did, although they were
constantly ut work. Miss Bellet Buffered
much, nnd so did 1. The married ladv was
the best of the party. After the snow storm
the weuther wus intensely cold, and our suf
ferings almost beyond eudiirunce. Between
4 und 5 o'clock on Sunday afternoon, our
hearts were gladdened at the sight or a Fail
in the horizon. We leaped for joy. We '
made all the signal we could, nnd one man
made n flag of his red flannel under-shiit.
This vessel did not see us, but another which
proved to be the Bremen barque Klise, saw
os nnd camo to our rescue. 1 he men worked
with great energy, deeming this their last
hope I do not think I'could have stood it
another day, as I suffered ao much with my
feet, both of which were badly frozen. The
Captain of the Klise took us with our bout
ou board and paid us every attention.

Coal As is generally known, is the pro
duce of burned trees. It has been calculated
that an ocre of coal three feet thick is euquul
to the produce of 1940 acres or forest. The
first coal mines were worked in Belirinm, in
the year 11G8, and very soon after in Engluttrt,
where now five times as much eoul as in any
other country is raised. It is est mated that
there are more thnn 4000 square miles of coal
yet to cut out iu Great Britain.
