Whitney, which occurred yesterday afternoon at’ hie residence on Franklin street, Sixth ward. We did not learn the disease of which he died. Col.

Yesterday as Mr. Booker of the Cam-i -bells was purchasing some peaches at a -stand, he dropped a roll of postage cur rency ; and bills, amounting to ten dollars, and concluding his purchase, moved off without discovering his loss. A lad con nectcd with the telegraph office by the name of Harry Bandell, observed h m drop the money, and picking it up, hasten ed atterhimi and restored it. He was suitably rewarded by Mr. Buoker, bnt the applause of hie own conscience must have beenhis greatest reward. That boy will yet make Lib mark in the world. The tele graph company speak highly of him. Outrageous. A bill poster yesterday asked a getle inan why the Campbell's were like the St. Charles Hotel. The question having been given up, he replied, •! Because they are both well patronised,” and immediately fainted. The impression was that he was overcome by the extreme heat, but the real cause wns the exertion in getting up of the above. By careful attention it is thought that he may recover, provided no punsters are allowed to visit him. San Strobe.

The disgusting brutes who daily violate the laws in this respect should be to feel the conse quences. House Raising. The Holmes block, consisting of Bix brick houses on Hay street, are being raised about six or eight feet above their former level. The process is slow, but they go up steadily.

New Yokk. August Jl. - A Paris letter y- 5 .the alarm about a war with Russia cor. Dues, and the most improbable re per:.-? arc started hourly in regard lu it. The situation to-day is this: Prance wili not go alone into a war with Russia for fear of a European coalition ; but if, on the other, hand. France can carry Austria, England and Sweden into the war with her, then Russia, which has believed this coalition impossible, wili back out and concede the six points. Thus in either case war seems for the moment impossible. France and Sweeden arc eager for the war, but Austria and Eng lai.d hold back. In the meantime trade is suffering by the fright as much as if the war had actually commenced. Saratom, August 11. —The National Sabbath Convention met here to day.— Most of the Loyal states were represented. Norman White, of X. Y., called the meet ing to order. Rev. Chas. Hodge, of N.

Cairo, August 11 —Gunboats are being prepared to co-operate with Gen. Steele’b expedition into Arkansas. Vicksburg is being put in a complete sanitary condition. Rations are still is sued daily to upwards of ten thousand in habitants. It is reported that guerrilla Richardson has returned to West Tennessee with regi-. raenta to carry the conscription. He said he had instructions to conscript all light colored negroes between 18 and 45, to serve three years as soldiers, at the expir ation of which time they are to be manu mitted, but to receive no pay for services. A reconnoissance under Major Warden, of Gen. Ransom’s staff was made to Wood vilie, seventy miles from Natchez, and destroyed four locomotives, forty-three platforms and twelve passenger cars; burned the rebel cotton factory at Wood ville; also cotton and manufactory good to the amount of $20,000.

They reportto Gen. Dodge at Corinth. Their number is increasing daily. They have either captured or driven out every officer sent in that section to enforce the con scription.

Considerable numbers of de sorters who retained their arms are in the mountains near Pikeville, Alabama, and organizing with the citizens to resist the conscription. Efforts to execute the con scription in West Tennessee is pretty ef fectually broken op by the vigilance of Harlbut’B army. New York, August 11. —The steame* China from Liverpool on the Ist anj Qaeenstown on the 2d, arrived this after noon. News mainly anticipated via Cape Race.

Biou Bradbury as their candidate lor Governor. The resolutions adopted favor the re-establishment ot the Union., but declare that the work can only be done under Democratic auspices, and : according to the Democratic platform. The following is one of the resolutions adopted : Resolved , That whenever the people of the seceded States shall desire to return to the Uuon and resume their obligations to the Constitution, the Democratic party will hail their return with joy, and will freely welcome them back wiih all the dignity, equality and rights of the several States unimpaired ; and we denounce the new and startling doctrines of the Repub fican journals, that the extinction of sla very Bhall be the condition of their resto ration to the Union, as a violation of the public pledges of the party, and an attempt to subvert the Constitution, revolutionize the Government, prolong the war, and es tablish a military despotism on the ruins of our Republican Government. Attempt to Kill a Prison Keeper. Two convicts, confined together in the Dauphin County Prison, invited, on Thurs day last, the keeper, Mr. Downey, to enter their cell, on the pretense of examining the water pipe. While Mr, Downey was in the cell and stooping down to inspect the pipe, one of the convicts struck him on the back of the head with a piece of iron which had been forced from the win dow. Downey cried lor help, which for tunately came in Lime to save him. The prisoners were then better secured and placed in a cell from where they can do no further harm. After they were re moved from the cell which they had occu pied, it was discovered that they had been engaged for several days in digging through floor into the cellar, & distance of six feet, and were only stopped in their effort to escape in that way by coming direct on a heavy arch in the basement. The ob ject of their attack on the beeper was to get the prison keys and set themselves at libertv. The Colored Conscript. At Hartford, a colored hotel waiter, who had been drafted, made up his mind to get an exemption certificate. Being sound himself, he procured a colored brother with a weak knee to go before the sur geon and personate himself, the unsound leg being sufficient, he supposed, to get him clear. Bat the leg was not quite un sound enough. The surgeon passed him, and the “provo" held him as an able bodied solaier in Uncle Abraham’s army. This scared the darkey with a lame leg almoßt to death. Turning a little pale in the face, he declared “Lor a maaaa, ear, I arn't him : ain’t no soger at all!” ‘‘Who are you 7" “(>, sar, 1 comes just for de lame leg, to get him dare of de draft; dal's all ; lis sartin; I can't go to de war; can't be killed down Souf; lor’ a mighty bresa yon, let me go.’ With this expla nation the facts seemed clear enough, and in twenty minutes both of the colored gentlemen were in the look np. One will go, probably, and the gamr legged one will got punished fur his attempt to de fraud. The draft is a great Btimulant of genius. Careless Use of Powder. A few days since, a lad in Baltimore, named Floyd, and aged about fifteen, bought a pound of powder, and wrapping it up tightly in paper, concluded to set it off. He was with a number of children at the time, and the explosion of the powder burned and wounded several of the chil dren very seriously. Cue of them was a brother of Floyd, aged iouryoars: his face, neck and arms wero terribly burned, and he was not expected to recover. A son of Mr. Higgins, aged five years, and a son of Mr. J. Schultz aged Beveo years, were much bnrned about the face and upper part of their bodies. Several others were slightly injured. The London Otaris of the opinion that if Charles Mackay, the New York corres pondent of the London Times had, in his poems exhibited half the vigor and strength of imagination which he displays in his as tonishing letters from New York, he might have achieved Borne fame. The Gazette Musicale apprises ns that Adelina Patti has been “commanded” by the Queen of Spain to sing daring the winter ot 1863-4 in the capital ot her birth, Madrid, and that she will, therefore, relinquish her engagements in Paris. It is rumored that George Peabody, the eminent American banker in London, pro poses to donate Yale College the sum ot $lOO,OOO for the purpose of erecting a ge ological cabinet. Jeff.
