When the lecture was delivered in the Second Church the building was so densely crowded that many were unable to find even a standing place.

Joint resolutions from our Legislature, in relation to the right of wey asked by the above named company across Vir ,ginia, were read in the Legislature of that State on Thursday last and referred to the committee on'roads and internal naviga tion. Sale of Loretto Springs. We call the attention of capitalists to the advertisement announcing the peremp tory sale of the Loretto Spnngs hotel prop erty—real and personal—to take place at the Philadelphia Exchange, on Tuesday next. - The hotel• was erected expressly as a summer resort, and as such must become immensely popular in the course of a very few years.- Located on the very summit of the Allegheny mountails, where the air is intensely:pnre:and cool, even in July and August, it will soon prove as' attractive a place as the White mountains. It has on ly been npen for two seasons, and has al ready gained a name and reputation as one of the most beituttful and healthy summer resorts in the State of Pennsylvania. The accommodations are ample for one hun dred and. forty guests, besides servants, and they are second to none in the State. The personal property to be included in the sale cost $7,00 and is nearly new— embracing everything necessity to conduct the hotel. It was stated that the Govern - menkproposed purchasing it fora hospital, for which its location is very favorable and there is no doubt that if opened by some enterprising gentleman, and well conduc ted, it willzbe liberally patronized by army officers whose health has become impaired. We-regard it aeon excellent opening for an enterprising man, and it must prove profit able if it falls into the hands of a party who knows how to keep a hotel. The present prop th. rietor relinquishes it on account of ill heal Coal and Lime. We refer our 'readerti to the advertise ment of Dickson, Stewart & Co., whose soil yard is at No. 609 -Liberty street. They have _for a. long time supplied an excellent article of family coal at mode rale prices, and now they are manufactur ing a superior qaulity of lime, which will be delivered, in any desired quantity, from their yaid The firm is responsible and prompt, and orders can be sent with per fect confidence,- Death' ft.= Intemperesee.

The Right..or Lumbermen An important case respecting the rights of lumbermen to recover the value of tim ber seized by other parties during freshets, has recently been decided. The action for damages was brought against an individual for converting to his own use one hundred and four logs, alleged to contain twenty live thousand feet, and valued at, two hun dred dollar:, belonging to plaintitN eiti• zoos or an adjacent county. The jury found from the evidence that the saw- logs found at the mill of the defendant, by the agent of the plaintiffs., belonged al they! time to the plaintiffs, and that they wene. part of the logs that came down the Sus quehanna river in the freshet of May,lst:o, and that said logs had gone ashore On the land owned by defendant, and had been purehated there by the agent of the de fendant irons- certain persons claiming to own the same. and that said logs were ear ried by the vessel of the defendant to his will, for the pin ',use of being sawed up into plunk. and the defendant when called upon by the agent of plaintiffs claimed to own the said logs. The jury rendered a verdict for plaintiffs: damages SI!71 83. It appears that by the freshet of May. 18130. there were lost from the IMom it. the Susquehanna river. logs ot• the value of about 810000, the property of different parties. and that many other suits are pending iu•the courts against ilitr , •rent par ties to recover the value of snid logs. con verted by theM to their own use. The Allegheny Bank Counter tents. So far as we can learn by the Eastern papers, the "shovers" of the counterfeit sloo's on the Allegheny Bank were more successful West than East, as only S7OO or SBOO was passed in Philadelphia and even less in New York. Two lots of $5OO each were offered in Philadelphia, but in one case the fellow became alarmed while the bills were being scrutinized and run off, while in the other the party was arrested.

The following is an extract from a pri vate letter: • • ' The Prince of Wales was at Hebron re , cently. He and.his suite obtained:permis• sion to visit the Cave of Macbpelah, Abra ham's burial place. They .are the first Christians who have been allowed to miter it since the Crusades, nearly 700 years ago. Dr. Stanley says everything is kept in the most. beautiful order, and nothing conli be more satisfactory than the 'state in which the tombs are preserved. Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Sarah, Rebecca and Leah are buried there. Two of the Sheiks were inclined to give annoyance and show their animosity at Christian's being allowed to enter the cafe. The Governor of Hebron, howeyer, had them turned out, or rather he escorted them out himself, and the re mainder were very complimentary to the Prince, saying that they were very glad to have the oportunity of showing any civilly in their power to one of the Princes of England, to whom their government was so much indebted for kind offices; that they looked on it as n great compliment to themselves that the heir to the throne of England had visited one of their holy places, etc. So that altogether it was very satisfactory. ___ On Tuesday, the Bth instant, a large shoal of "caning" whales were seen ap proaching the land in the direction of Whiteness. The welcome news soon spread. and boats were quickly manned by brave men of all classes, fully equipped with harpoons, lances, &c., to do battle with these monsters .of the deep. Undaunted by want of success and the inclemency of the weather, after considerable delay, the men succeeded in bringing the pack into the Von of Weisdale. When they got into shallow and muddy water, their assailants finding some difficulty in landing them, and, no doubt, wishing to enjoy the whole instead of two-thirds of the proceeds of their captuie, commenced to attack them at sea. The boats being numerous, the whales close together, and the men most. dexterous in the use of the various instru ments of death, in it short time the whole pack was, with - few excewions, either killed or wounded. Owing•to the great number of places at which they are landed, and the great distances they are from each her, it is impossible as vet to say the exact number captures. Some reports lic it ut about 500, others at 260.—Shel hued A rlrrribter. HALF PRICE PITTSBURGH THEATRE. LIL4BIIIII AL% NAGKR W.I. II ESDRIN I cti N. Nuclei uY Al/111M81 ,,, C.

A school was established in the house some three or four years ago and kept in operation most of the time since. the directors believe this school has done much for the good of the children. besides greatly contributing to the good order of the house. The averafte attendance during the Put year was about thirty children, whose ages varied from four to fourteen years. 3lim Rebecca P. Witherow had charge of our school and gave entire satisfaction as a successful teacher and dis ciplinarian. The directors take great pleasure in acknowledg ing liberal donations of Bibles and Testaments from the "Alletbeny Bible Society," and from the "Young Men's Bible Society of Pittsburgh." and a bundle of other good books, presented by the American Tract Society." In addition several re li,gioue• and secular newspapers are regularly re ceived and enjoyed by the inmates. Much pleas ure was derived by them from the reading than af forded. and we trust le corresponding amount of profit. Owing in a great measure to the derangement of business,. conseqnent on the breaking out of the Present infiunona rebellion. large numbers of the working classes were thrown out of employment. and of necessity made application for relief at the hands of the directors. The number of persons assisted out of the house, as nearly as has been ascertained, and ta4a hroludiely whole families. is sr,o, at an outlay of 1111. which is a fraction less than $5 each for tre sear. The expenses of the house and farm. including repairs. salaries, stores. Se., is $3ll 50, which shows the cost of each inmate for the year to be $6O debtor a week, 3117, exclusive of tha products of the farm. .• • . In adittion to the Insane mentioned in the fore going tables. we had others under treatment at the Western Pennsrleaslia Hospital. having peither a suitable place, nor facilities at the farm. for either curing or relieving this most unfortunate class. 29.103 31 . 8.667 e 5 $37,771 16 An unusual amount of sickness prevailed in the house during the year, though the deaths were only about in the same ratio as in previous years. The inmates have had frequent vista from cler gymen of various denominations, all of whom sli mmed a oordial welcome without regard to creeds. Pert of the year we had the minieterial services of the RSV. Mr. Jones, of the Methodist Episcopal church, whom only compemotion consisted in his being free of expense while at the house. Bin. he left there has been occasional preach ing on the Sabbath to the inmates, by different clergymen, as was convenient for them, in addi. Lion to occasional visits through the week.
