APPALLING
Tito Richmond Enquirer of
_Saturday
comes to us in mourning, and filled with
particulars - of the terrible accident.'
The .Enquii•er publishes lists ' of the
killed and wounded, ..together' - 'with
matters. that have
‘ already been sent by
telegraph, but' wo find -in its
says
other passages.of intereSt. It says :
In this generation - such -a calamity lut
not befallen . our city .as appalled;• our
people
_yesterday .morning.. The • daily
papers having anuonuced.that the Court
of Appeals would make their decision at
11 o'olock in . the .Ellyson. phithoort
Mayoralty case, an immense crowd
Packed the court room, ,id , the second
story of. the Capitol, before--the hour
named. % The court. room is just over thd
ball of the House. of Delegates, and was
literally packed, in every part, with per 4
- sons eager to hear the expected decision.
Suddenly the packed gallery'gave 'way;
and was thrown forward with a.heavy.
concussion into the - centre of the Court
room. This occurrence; with the rush
and surging of the crowd,. caused .the
whole
.floor tohreak through—from the
walls, and sink-in a cloud of dust,._- and
ladened with its load of Inman. beings,
down into the. Hall of the diduso of
Delegates below: The mass 'which foil
buried beneath its ruins.the persons who
happened then to be in-the It is
exceedingly ibrtunate- that the catastird.
pito happened at the early hour of 11;
for if it had occurred after the House of
Delegates had met, scarcely any of the
members could have escaped: A largo
meeting of delegates which .had been
held in the hall had just adjourned.
The scone which was presented after
the fall of the suspended eoui•troomwas
frightful beyond descrijtiori.• A thick
cloud of dust filled the vast space.
Every individual of the vast throng of
human beings Was bogrimed with dust.
Many were bleeding and-groaning from
the injuries they • bad received. Many
lay dead in the
,promiscuous crowd.
Through the incumbent • floor of the
fallen room the legs, and arms, and heads,
of the Persons who had been caught
beneath it were protruding; seine still
under the spell of death; others 'Moving
in efforts at extrication, or in the [Tony
- of pain and suffering. The greater num
ber of the persbns who went down with
the floor readily made their escape from
the hall below. Those who were struck
by timbers, and caught by the .gallery
above, and those who. were in the lower
hall, and caught by the falling mass,
were the sufferers from the occurrence.
It is a cause of thankfulness that so
small a proportion of the great number
of persons who were in tho court room
has been inju'red.- : The judges of the
court -itself all escaped unhurt. They :
were in the conference room, just about
going lido the court room, when the floor
sank. They wore at the door. of_the
ing or the throng of men, but were,
fortunately, tardy enough to escape being
involved in the catastrophe.
THE FLUE HELL MUCCI
Some thoughtful ones ran to the bell
house, and, obedient to their suggestion,
kholtellmen_commenc mita
Boom—brought' out the fire department
and many citizens. The • repcirt was
rife, and for some time believed, that to
Capitol was on fire. The movement Of
the firemen confirmed that impression.
The heavy' timbers, etc., had been
pitched ont of the windows. The re
cords of, the court, such as had boon re
covered, where thrown into the railing
enclosing Washington's statue, together
with a hundred hats and as many shoes.
THE DEAD AND WOUNDED
The corpses of those taken .from the
ruins were all laid on the grass on both
aides of the Capitol ; as were the
wounded. The-wounded and dead were
alike borne away as soon a§ their friends
could ho informed or their condition.-
The catastrophe destroyed the room
of
,the,Supremo Court of .Appeals, the
Clerk's office, and completely' 'wreckod
the Hall of the lionCte of Delegates.
In the latter place, the Speaker's chair
and all the desks on the east -side were
crushed, a page killed, and twenty-ono
members injured.

singular that in hone of - these countries
the idea is entertained of lessening the

der•stood abroad that a loan never to be
repaid is considered a more eligible in
vestment than a loan' that is to be re
paid ; besides the fact that the interest
payable . on the public is smaller than
that payable on the private loan.,
Another• anomaly is the current igno
ranee of the actual amount of the public
debt in any European country. It is
usually stated in round numbers by ap
proximation. aver have seen each debt
variously stated at from five to fifty mil
lion pounds less than its actual amount:
Tim only country in Europe where the
debt is fully stated is in England. It is
now- £801,400,563, upon which for the
three months ending March 3E 1870,
the interest was £6,655,030, being at the
rate of e 26,623,706 per annum. This
largo national debt of ;£801,408563, is
compounded of three distinct item5.4:t;41,514,683

unfunded debt, and the £41,048,518 of
terminable affinities, the capital valuo
of these in three per cent stock being
£53,190,380. •
The*merican national debt was $2,-
7-19,491.745 on the first day of January,
1806. Dr. J. W.Dmper, historian of the
war, says, "to it should be added the
sums expended by the individual States

out tt
heir several contingents. •to o
rises above four thousand, millions of
dollars. That is, in five to six years—
June, 186 d, to January, 1860—we equaled
the indobleibiess of England during' two
centuries. But as spo'n . as peace was
'restored, we began to reduce this debt
V paying it off. All that England ever
did wits to establish a sinking fund,
which, in a moment of fiscal need, was
seized and appropriated. by thi3' British
Government. It was one of tin; crotchets
of Alison, the historian, that if this sink . :
ing fund l'had been left to itself it would
have extinguished the whole public debt
of England (only $4,425,000,000 after
Waterloo) by the year 1845."
Here then, we differ, from European
nations. We are paying ofy our debt,
and to do so has, been the steady purpose

GUARD THE ;TREASURY
Theta is one subject connected with
our State • legislation which requires
some looking after by the people, if they
have any caro for their own interests:
We mean that in relation to the bonds
now held by the Coliniaissioners of the
Sinking Fund, and Which only escaped
the grasp, of speculators last winter, by
the aid of the 'veto of the greilt railroad
swindle. —Theso-bonds "are an immense
_temptation to every, corrupt politician
.in the Commonwealth: They amoun to
almOst one-third of the entire State debt;
and are especially Set apart as assets for
its payment.. The politicians, however,
see in them an immense chance for steal
ing. They succeeded last winter, ,ift
allont three days of hard work, in get
ting through a bill that transferred the
whole of these securities to three or four
paper corporations, in exchange ; for
bonds that hail yet.Ao be creat9d4at'
really represented no'propqty, ,and ( that
were destitute of any preseht value whitit-*
ever t - This little vlerne.wals defeated
hoivever, and, the people are now re
that.their. property has been pro
tected. This rejoicingv-is all right, but
something more is needed, or their, joy
will likely be of short duration.
The scheme which the Governor de
feated last winter will be revived next
session.- The railroad people mow know
their ground, and will be prepared to
succeed in spite of all obstacles. The
vote on the railroad bill at•the last ses
slob was„withiu a trifle of two-thirds of
both houses, and it may be possible that
some gentlemen voted against the bill,
who would have voted in its favor if they
had been in their second sesSion instead
of their first. At any rate, t _is pretty
well conceded that if the- railr936l mon
had had time after the - Ow, could
have overcome it. Vas shows a condi
tion 6f tffilis that is positively alarming,
,it.9.4.9.Utalitttpftftrattiftzit
expression of their will as will deter
politicians from disregarding it. Every
county in the State should see to it that
man, is nominated for the Legislature
who is not known to be opposed to any
other disposition of the bonds than the
payment of the dcbt..._.And.._no..,,maii
should be sent who cannot be relied
upon as being proof against all induce- •
monks to any other course.
Theu - let -- every county. convention in
the St' an unoquiviScal oxprossion
on thl.4 t.. Let no man be returned
to the Legislature who was in any man
ner implicated in the bold attempt made
last winter to turn over the control of
the property of the State, to men, -who,
under , the pretence of dethlopiiig our
resources, wow eagerly working to de
velop and increase their own private
fortunes. Let there be no evading the
question on the part of any who desire a
seat In-the Legislature. They should be
made face thOLniusie at once. Unless
our tax payers are willing to see their
debt practically increased to the tone of
nine and one-half millions they should
by all means refuse to vote for any nittn,
who is in favor of diverting the bonds
now 141 by the State from their legiti
mate use,*th the benefit of corporations,
whothbr real or-imaginary. ,

nonuced on him, by the most prominent
men of both parties. ldr. Pendleton,
who belongs to tho families," and
is one of the ablest men in Virginia,
spoke of his fellow-Senator as follows :' •
"That ono was a member of our own
body, who, though he belonged to a caste
heretofore without political rights, and
whose presence, as ; a meinber of this
body,. was' a strange sight to Virginian
eyes, had yet, by his uniform good de
portment, his invariable courtesy, and
politeness- to

the white race, and his independence of
opinion.on all political subjeetd,' so wou
upon all, as to gain' he respect—nay ad- .

sidered the late James W. D. 'Bland as a
very remarkable person. Belonging: to
a race whose intellectual capacity has
_generally been supposed to.be extremely
limited, his'past life, spent unkr institu

period, made 'education almost, op -quite

o polite society only as a remote obserror
rathls than as a participant, his attain,.
moats and moral elevation - WOll3 to Me
truly remarkable.' Uniform politeness,
dignity and' independenceof character
won the respect and esteem of all.
I regard the death' of James W. D.
- Bland as zt public calamity. De .stood
. here as UM harbinger of better feelings

On Monday la 4 the:new State Treas .
m•er, Gen. W. W. Irwin put in an ap
pearance at Harrisburg,..and assumed the
duties of his office. Mr. Mackay, the re
• tiring Treasurer, was a leery competent
and courteous officer, and his administra
tion reflects much credit on himself, .and
on'the venerable Thomas Nicholson, who,
was his cashier. , . • -
' Gen- Irwin has served one term a's
Treasurer, to the entire satisfaction of
all who liad business with the Treasury.
'Ho isa courteous and obliging gentleman,
and has 'praito., himself en efficient and
faithild Officer. Although elected prin
cipally by democratic votes, Gen. Irwin
is ono of the staunchest republicans .in
the State, and IS, altogether, too good . a
man ever to be any thing else. His
cashier, Mr Taggart has had many years
experience as air officer of t.h Treasury,
and is thoroughly booked oh 'his duties.
The finances of the State could be in no
better hands. •
' We regret, exceedingly, the difficulty
which has resulted in the withdrawal of
two entire clasSes from Dickinson Col
lege. Without going into the merits of
.the question at all. •We think the young
gentlemen have taken a stop, which they
will greatly regret hereafter. 'Whatever
may have been the. action of the college
authorities the students should remem
ber that their disobedience was the occa
sion of the difficulty.' When any one
undertakes to set aside the authority of
a superior ho should be willing to take
the ! consequences manfully. Punish

some provocation, and it Lea little ao
surd in the party offending to assume to
judge what the extent of the penalty
should be. If that were the rule, order
and government-would soon be unknown
everywhere. •
Secretary Boutwoll again sends us glad
tidings. The reduction of the National
debt goes on. The montldy.statement
for April shows that - slr,'Ob7; 793' of the
burthon cast on the nation by the. trea
son of Democratic leaders has been re:
moved. This is at the rate of nearly one
hundred millions per annum, and indi
cates the payment of the whole amount
in twenty years. This is good news, as
suredly. Now, will the great statesmen
in the Lower House of Congress, suspend
their remarks long enough to pass the
Funding Bill, so that Mr. Boutwell may
secure a loan at a lower rats of intereu.
A good many of the smart men'in that
body would become a good deal . smarter,
if they would substitute Mr. Boutwell's
ideas on Finance for their own, and. then
act accordingly.
The contributors to the Pennsylvania
Hospital, in Philadelphia, have sustained
the action of the managers, in admitting
female students to the clinical lectures
:it that institution. The vote on the
questi6n was very decided, and, hence
forth, it is settled -that there, at least,
lady students will be denied no advan
tages that are afforded gentlemen. We
hope those impressible young gentle
men,' who insulted - the ladles last winter,
• undpWtyl that womanliave as
much right to the stilt y, ate luau ice u
