INDUSTRIES OF OUR RICH HEN The New York correspondent of the Troy Times writes: Having referred to industry as the chief m et st..hy to sweeten existence, let me add some thing upon the hilarious Labile or our leading business men. Many young men look for ward to the time when tiny shall be released from labor, and they have a notion that tho rich men of this city lean what Is called an "easy life." This idea is very erroneous. Our successful men not only have been, but continue to be, hard workers. It is true there arc persons who inure inherited wealth, and therefore yield themselves to indolence and dissipation, but their experiences quickly proiie the tilt It of the old saying, that the had anti his money are soon parted. Our rich business men work because habit his become second nature, and they would be miserable if they were idle. We have no rich drones, fora drone would never trc, tine rich. L.rt us look nt the hrlustry of a few of our self-made men. Here Is who is about three score and ten, and Is esti mated at five millions. Surely such a man, one might say. ought to rest. So far from Oils, however, he is almost as busy as ever. Ile was noted as an active and tar-sighted merchant, and ever since he retired from trade, he has found enough to do In the vast field of finance. Mr. Taylor is President of the City . Bank, which is one of the heaviest of our Wall street illsillutions. He would be extremely miserable it he did not visit that bank every day, and spend au hour in overlooking it operations in a manner which some men wind t call laborious. Alter this is chine, -one may meet in the Wall street crowd that form, lithe and erect, and that penetrating countenance, which scenic ns much 011 the alert as %viten he was a poor clerk. Pour o'clock finds him at his home, with a racked brain and a weary body, but a line dinner restores his tone, and l • er no hour or social small talk and a di iv. to the park, he retires to his private office and enters into a (Wet) and vexatious calculation inquire what it cati : fa; ANN rich man so intensely ? I reply, lie has a huge number of vacant lots which should be covered with houses, and the architects' plans and the builders' contracts are to be examined. fie has shares in banks, in gas companies and in oilier stocks, all of which must be looked shier. And it lie does not finish his work as rapidly us each day brhigs it before hint, it would soon accumulate in it very burdensome manner. Such, then, is the life of a five mil lion man.

To. such a titan as the COIIIIIIO dire the idea of retirement is repulsive. Ac tivity is his life, and business is an elysium.— Eachday brings its excitements, either of loss or of gain, and at its close lie feels the pleas. ure resulting front exercise of the faculties both of burly and mind. It is well known Unit this man is a marvel or industry. Like Vanderbilt, he is about seventy•llse, but he looks much younger than the former. Vanderblt may have telt the impelling CMISCII/USIICSS of a fatally to sharpen his applicatinn, but Stewart has '•iteither chick nor child." Ile works In aim pie obedience to his nature, which demands it. Stewart and Vanderbilt are the grunt 4-n puments of two departments of business, the one being a merchant prince and the other a railway king. I do' o u t know that they have ever met, and the gr. fitness or this city is shown by containing two such men without collision of interests. It is the opinion of good fudges of character, that if Stew art had heed bred to military' life hu would have been the greatest general of the age. What would not have been accompbslded by such method ..nd such industry ? Having reached .old age, sad nith a property estimated at from thirty to tiny millions, he must,still do his day's work. eINICINO OF THE DOTI'ONI OF TUE MORRIS AND MIOADWAY, N.

Sunday had been a very stormy day, and the valley was cast in gloom from dawn till eve, when the .Ity cleared and the stars came out, and ser viCeet were held as U9lllO in the Methodist church, the only religious temple In this not densely populated village. Daniel Wgllams, captain of a beat, Was coming up the canal a little before 10 n'cleek , t 1 Monday morning. Nothing unusual cc curred after passing New Village until ho s rack the shores of John 'McKinney's farm, -ellen suddenly hr heard n greatrushlng noise.

MOSES TAYLOR, I= (252322 NEW JERSEY CAVING IN I= I= and dismay, saw an immense whirlpool about 100 feet ahead of him. Ile ae once jerked the mule that was hauling the boat, and rat. the vessel hard against the towpath shore. In a few minutes the boat was hard aground and the water the r lost had begun very rapidly to recede. Jumping ashore, the captain by this time scared almost to death, was Immedi ately hollowed by the boy at the helm. No sooner had hie feet touched the towpath than another sound struck his ears. It was almost like the.report of a cannon. Looking over into the cornfield on the eastern side of the canal, he saw an immense hole in the earth, and waiting for no special instructions, ho and the boy made a rapid retreat, and rushing up to Shire's store, made known what bad happened. =! An alarm was at once sounded, and the vii. lagers turned out in a body to look upon the wonderful scene. A careful survey of the sunken places was made, and efforts were at once begun to fill the hole in the canal. But the all absorbing question was how to fill it. Trees were cut down, hunereds of bundles of cornstalks were obtained, and these were thrown Into the vortex, down which the water was still pouring and disappearing as that as it went down. Finally, after nearly a day's work, abed or bag was formed, into which earth was thrown and " puddled" until it was thought safe to turn the water in the level again. The water was accordingly turned on, and the boats began to pass and re. pass, and business on the canal went on as usual fur nearly a day. T lIE CORNFIELD HOLES A careful examination of the holes was then made and resulted in impressing nearly every one present at the time with the belief that,to use an expression made by an old canaller, the•"canawl was gone up, and nothln' could save it, no how." The principal sink in the cornfield was found to be about twenty feet In diameter, and nearly twenty•five feet deep. The hole was cut regularly as if it had been made by an immense • bore. At Its bottom lay a little puddle of water but the earth which had been carried away was nowhere to be seen. This cavity is about one hundred and fitly feet from the canal, and is on descending ;round. About seventy-five feet from this hole is another, much less in diameter, but quite as deep. All around both of these ex. east/Minns (which are In a ten acre lot) are large fissures in the earth, the whole lot, in fact, being cracked in every direction. =! When the earth disappeared and these holes were made, a rumbling noise, like dia. taut thunder, was heard, causing general con sternation throughout Washington Valley: Some of the old residents declared that they knew "it would come some time or other." They said, "There's no bottom to this here. valley, and it's no wonder that it's beginnin' to fall out, and it might as well come now as any other time." Yesterday afternoon, while several of the trustees of the Methodist church were at work making repairs inside that building, they heard a rumbling noise under the edifice. It was like the rolling of a heavy cart over a stone pavement. The building shook, and the gentlemen looked si lently at each other until the mysterious noise had ceased. then said, all in one breath, "That was an earthcoake." The matter was subse quently talked over among them, and they attic to tine unanimous conclusion that the loose they had heard had something to do with the sinking or the earth In and near the canal—in other words, that the disturbance of the bottom of the canal and the adjoining L 1 OW iorn, Ira, ton •••- _ Removal of Graves at Pottstown--- Singular Discoveries. A portion of the burying ground attached to the old brick Lotheran Church at Potts town is being dug up to make room for the erection of anew church for a portion of the congregation. The spot has been used as a burial ground, It is believed, for about ono hundred and twenty years. Considerableop- Posit ion was manifested by the relatives of the entombed to the disinterment of the remains of the dead, but the demands of the case su perseded their wishes In the matter. From fitly to seventy•five bodies have been removed And buried elsewhere, and the disagreeable ondertaking has been about completed. The Pottstown Ledger furnishes the following curious particulars : The removal of the bridles from this burial ground, and the excavation for the new church edifice, has brought to light some curious facts, which have caused considerable " town talk" and specitiation. For instance, the I body in one coffin was found to be turned face doe nward, which strange circumstance might be attributed to burial while living or su pernatural naency,hut his generally supposed, was caused by the coffin filling with water. In another case both coffin and body (that of an old resident of the vicinity, interred many years ago) were found to be upside down,ana this could not have resulted from' water in the grave. The coffin was undoubtedly interred pi overly, and if at., how can wo account for its b ing turned over in this manner? The theory is that, after burial, the doctors, who were puzzled as to the cause of di ath, took up the body for examination, and put the coffin back in haste, upside down, as it was found. one gray., in which there should have born some remains, as time could not have maul tiered them away, was ascertained to be en tirely tenantless—supposed to have been vis ited by "body snatchers." The boom - if two persona who died If irty or forty years ago, of luck small pox, were found to be. entirely Hack. hree or four bodies were found to lie partially petrified, caused by the water, (although the graves are in rather high ground,) and one body, that of an old man who hanged himself nine or ten years ago, was believed to be entirely turned to stone, as its weight could not be otherwise accounted for ; but for some reason the relatives who took charge of the coffin declined to have it opened. In one grave, among the human bones, were found tile large teeth of some ani mal, the presence of which could only be ac counted for by supposing that they were thrown in among the dirtett the time of Inter. meat, end had gradually worked down among the decaying remains. It Is demonstrated by the excavations here that the teeth and after them the skull, longest resist the process of di city, and•are the last portions of poor hu manity to return again to mother earth. A. remarkable disinterment took place on Wednesday last, In digging: for the founda tion well, near the ilanoverand Walnut street corner 01 the burial ground. The remains of man were (build, In a square box, about eighteen Inches below the surface, there being it few bones, n piece of skull, a bunch of sandy hair, some metal buttons, portions of a Usenet shirt or blouse, a small clipper coin, a pocket knife, the soles of a pair of boots, and five nr six links of a chain. The man had evidently been buried t••y, In his ch ailing and boots, and the knife and coin had been In his pocket. How hr piece of chain, which was several inches in length, came there, la a mystery. Had the man been hanged, or executed In some manner for a crime, or had the chain accidently got into the graire when he was buried? Many incline to the former opinion. Tradition has it that two soldiers of, the revo lutionary war were burled In that corner of the graveyard, and the articles found about this p rein indicate that he had bt en dressed in military clothing; but wherefore the chant, if a soldier He might have been a deserter, a spy, or a tory, who had been summarily dealt with, and who had been handcuffed at the time of his execution. The chain was In about the position It would be if used to join handcuffs which were on the wrists of the occupant of the mysterious box, but no hand cuffs were found. Could they have corroded and rusted away? The box was pine wood, fastened with large old fashioned wrought nails, and both nails and wood were well pre served. If this mysterious personage was buried in the days of the revolution, as seems probable, he must have slept there for nearly ninety years, and Ida name and history must remstu as a seal , d book to those who have disturbed his repose. ENGLAND ON GUARD The unknown author of the " Battle of "Dorking," like all men who have suddenly succeeded, owes his reputation to a combine. lion of ability and luck. The description of the fatal fight,' In which the honor and the liberties of England went down on the slope of that now storied hill, has enough of truth and vividness to prove the author's thorough' and professional acquaintance with his subject and enough of skill and grace in management to arrest the attention and excite the admire tton of even a careless render. But If POMO vast new enterprise of Industry or of coloni- zatlon to take place a half century hence had been described with equal technical success, it would have been a thing to rend and smile at with a passing remark upon Its cleverness. The peculiar gond fortune of this curiously realistic sketch Is that it fixes in sharp and almost brutal distinctness the vague forebo dings of a great number of Englishmen, In the presence of a danger which has for the first time become possible, and which many think is therefore probable. Its publication has thus created an Immediate and painful im pression, strong enough and extensive enough to exert a.certain influence upon the thoughts and the plane of politicians. In a country which Is governed like England, almost en tirely by the power of public opinion, any cause, no matter how trilling in appearance, which can stir to such a depth the feeling of the people, has a character of profound signifi cance and deserves the most careful consider. ation. This pamphlet cannot be treated as a jeu-d'esprit. It is at once a political argument and a call to action. It rouses a Question which must have come up sooner or later, and de mands an immediate solution for it. The author himself, in the second edition which has Just been published in England, takes occasion to interlope a few phrases of especial ntereat as showing that he desires to remain for greater efficiency for the army. Speaking of tho present discussion of the military bill in Parliament, ho says c "It was a half-and-halt "affair at best; end, unfortunately, Instead of "being taken up in Parliament as a national " schem , ., it was made a party matter of, and "so fell through." "It was lint," ho goes on to say later, "that there %yip any lack ill "money, If only it had been spent in the right "way. The army cost enough, and more "than enough, to give us a proper defense, "and there were armed men of all sorts In "plenty and to spare, if only they had been " decently organized. It was in organization " and forethought that we fell short, beceitis, "our rules did not heartily believe in the need "for preparation. * * * So army reform " was put off to some more convenient season. " * * * We would not' even be at thi trouble of putting our arsenals In a safe plq‘e, or of guarding the capital ngainsi a surprise, although the cost of doing so would not have been So much as missed "from the national wealth." It is possible, as some have stated, that this powerful anti graphic writer is a.• Tory alarmist ;" but it this he true, he has certainly shown unusual skill In covering all traces of partisan malevo lence in these recently inserted phrases. Ile attacks the disorganization of the army, appa rently not in the interest of any party or clique, but from a genuine devotion to (hi service, and a sincere (I. sire to incite tio country to work of preparation for which he evidently thinks there is a deadly necessity. With these later paragraphs he guarde against the oitjections. which were most readily made against the positions he was his Vie Herons enure am-1 cca ,—eots the army and navy, and a great expenditure of money. On the contrary, ho expressly states that there are men and.meney enough, if properly or,anized and intelligently used. It is the necessity of thorough and immediate preparation for war which IM Insists upon ar the only shield against the phantom of Inva sion. Perhaps, with this limitation, there is noth ing very objectionable about the book. It there be an army at all in England, it had infinitely better be efficient than not, for stric , discipline apd perfect efficiency are qualitieb as valuable in garrison as in the battle.fiebl. That the utmost care and intelligence should be employed in the; expenditure of the army appropriations Is a proposition absolutely sell evident, in spite of the constant violation of it. If this Incisive satire shall do anything to set these two truths clearly before the British people, it will have accomplished an Important and by no means deleterious work. The point at which it becomes purely mis chievous is where it excites the British mind to hatred and suspicion of its neighbor. Whatever may happen In the future—and a ., do not place implicit faith in either the peace. fulness of Bismarck or the piety of the Kaiser where reasons of state intervene—there is RR yet no reason for that indefinite alarm which now pervades the island on account of GT man ambition. A nation is not necessarilj quarrelsome because it is warlike. Vietorj does not entail the net, ally of an endless career of conquests. Our own history shows a most striking Instance of the truth of this. When we came triumphant out of a great tram with a million of fire-proved veterans, the whole world waited a tuoment with something like alarm. They wondered what we would do next. They expected nothing less than that we should appropriate all our nearest neighbors on this continent, before letting our soldiers go. Thu result showed the greatness and strength of a nation which could take up the sword fur a principle, and lay it down when It seemed omnipotent, because there was nu further just cause for its use. All our hopes and good wishes for the noble German nation, atlast united by Its valor and constancy into a power which controls the fate of Eu rope, are founded on confidence In Its Inherent peacefulness and justice. Having properly punished the great st criminal and law-breaker of the age, there is little danger that it will assume the same dishonored character. Those who attempt to keep on foot the oppressive armaments, and the racking auspicious of a hollow truce, do not dojustice to the demands of the age, or the true temper of the German mind.—Tribune. POLITICAL The present Ohio Republican State Execu tive Committee is declared by The Columbus Journal to be the best working Committee the party Um ever bed in that State. The Executive Committee of the New York State Anti-Dram-Shop party met In Albany Tuesday to call a convention. The call is made asking for two delegates from each As sembly district, and each Temperance organi zation is invited to send one to meet in Byre come on theft day of Septdmber, at It o'clock a. in. They also arranged the State into ten districts, appointing a Deputy Corresponding Secretary in each district to organize voting leagues. The lowa City Republican has an article from the pen of I.,,•Grand Byngtoa, in which he advises Western Democrats to have nothing to do with the new doctrine of Vallandigham. He says: "The dodge haa . been . of annual recurrence In lowa, since Billy Blerrit, Jim Tuttle, and other simpletons, conceived the brilliant idea of trying to win, under their lead, Democratic victories, with Republican platforms ;" and that "It Is n&ther admissible nor desirable for the Democratic party to win Its victories ander any such pretenses."

Bo many malicious things have been said against the Postmaster-General and the Re publican Administration in consequence of the Macartney case, that it may be well to put to gether in a brief, consecutive story the exact facts, nothing extenuating and setting down naught In malice.• Macartney was a member of Dickinson College, where he wasgraduated In July, IBA and was noted for his punctili ous sense of honor and hlaunmeasured denun ciation of every violation of confidence or breach of trust. After leaving college ho was unfortunate in several newspaper and business enterprises, and ultimately drifted to Wash= ington, where he was living, In falling health and reduced circumstances, when appointed Diabursing Clerk of the Post Office 'Depart ment, at a salary of $2,000. t3hortly after Mr. Cresswell, who was an old classmate of his, and had every confidence in his Integrity, be came Postmaster-General. No suspicion of dishonesty attached to him until June 2, when he presented, in the regular course of his du ties, a requisition for additional sums ofmoney, drawing, among others, upon a particular ap propriation, which the Postmaster-General knew bad not been expended. This led to In quiries which proved that Macartney bad been using the public funds in various speculations, and a more thorough investigation has shown tiro deficiency to amount to about $30,000. filacartney's assets have been assigned to a trustee for the benefit of the Government and his sureties, and it is believed that the former will be able to reimburse itself from the prop erty thus transferred, if properly managed. The statement that shortly tfter Macatlney's 'appointment in tbe Post °Mee Department ho leased or purchased a lashionable house in G street, which he fitted up in luxurious style, and then entered upon a reckless and extrava gant life, spending something like $lO,OOO a year, is entirely Misc. Macartney has never . lived on a fashionable street at all, but about two years ago he purchased a emallneat house oa Q street, in a remote part of the city, and furnished it plainly. There he has lived ever since, except when absent from Washington under med.cal treatment. The house was a ught on very favorable. terms, and only ale u $BOO has been paid upon it. His house hold affairs were marked by economy and sim plicity, and those who know him best assert that there was nothing in hie habits or mode of life to excite the least suspicion that he was living beyond his salary. Macariney's health is wretched. His voice is gone, lie is fist yielding to the ravages of consumption, and is not expected to survive more than a month or two at farthest. His friends believe that his body and mind have been so weakened by disease that he has fallen a victim to some scheming adventurers who abound in Washington. WIFE MURDER, A despatch from Petroleum Centre (Pa.) to the Pittsburg commercial says: This evening about six o'clock, a meat atro etous and murderous assault was made by William Dwyer upon his wife. It seems that Dwyer and his wife had some trouble in re gard to a boy of theirs ; what it is was im possible to learn ; yet the dispute culminated it - tonight in the shooting of Mrs. Dwyer. Her husband drinks freely, and it is supposed ho was citnsiderably under the Influenceof liquor at the time. Wile his wife was lying on the lounge, he came in and locked the door, went - into a side apartment, from which he soon shoot you," verifying his words bring:Br ----- her. She screamed nod grasped her baby, which is about eight to ten months old, and tried to open the door, whicluesisted her at tempt's. In the meantime her husband fired several shots at her, two taking effect in the ihoulder,one in the forehead,one iu the cheek, and one In tile breast. After emptying his revolver at het i , Dwyer left the house•and was met outside by a man who heard the firing. The maw asked what was up. Dwyer replied in'a reckless tone.
