Ana on the Nil:m -.lp g rvening a sumptuous dinner was given to Mr Field,and the (iTieers of the 117agara and Gorgon. But, in the midst of this rejoicing, a great calamity has come upon the city. Tun QUARANTINE BUILDINGS at Staple ton, on Staten Island, were fired by incen dit,rica, and burned to the ground. This has been used as a place of Quarantine, for fifty years; but for the last twenty years many threats have been made against the buildings!, by the people in the vicinity. Many persons from the city have erected elegant mansions near the premises, and as a matter of course they do not approve of the nearness of diseases of all kinds, which must s nenessarily be the ease in such inati ' Wiens. - And since the alarm on account of yellow fever, the indignation has been very great. Many of the patients suffered severely on account of the cold, after the buildings were fired, and some have died in consequence. While the whole city is en dangered, by so many affected with disease, and turned (Not to seek lodgings wherever they can be found. Surely the people of Staten Islund, who knew of the existence of the quarantine buildiogs,should not have chosen a spot -for residences so near a pest. house; their present calamity is the result - of their own thoughtlessness. In the mean. time, it is proper to say that the city authori ties were very neglectful of duty in leaving the institution so 'unprotected when such fearful threats bad been made for many years. And . at last the mob did not consist of more than thirty or forty men, who might certainly have been resisted success fully before such an entire destruction had been made, it - the city officials had done their duty. The famous STUYVESANT PEAR TREE, brought from. Rolland and planted in 1646, is again bearing its accustomed load of lus cious fruit. MISS MARGARETTA Fox, wbo became so notorious a few years ago, at Rochester, on account of the "spiritual rapping," as it was termed, was admitted, by baptism, into the Roman Catholic church of St. Peter's. The Hon. Horace Greeley, and Mrs. Ellet, were prelent as witnesses to the ceremony. THE NEW YORK CITY UNIVERSITY, Dr. Ferris, Chancellor, ie now exceedingly well manned in every partioular. Many minis ters, of different denominations, received their collegiate training there. THE CHtrucHEs are again occupied by their own pastord and congregations, and the prayer-meetings are very enpuraging ; while the' union prayer.meetings are con tinued at Fulton Street church and the Globe Hotel. At a late meeting at the Globe Hotel, the folloWing incident, which we take from a contemporary, occurred : There arose a gentleman who has been a tal ented and distinguished member of the New York bar, of commanding personal liddress and appear ance. but who was known to be an inveterate and scoffing infidel. He formerly looked .upot minis• tern and other Christians as not having mental capacity enough , to be anything bat what, they are—not knowing enough to he infidels. He has lately become a Christian, and. is decided, though bumble as a little child, After speaking of his short and happy religious experiene, he led in prayer.'" PHILADELPHIA. Loud and frequent complaints continue to be made respecting the FILTHY CONDITION ,of the streets, lanes, and alleys of the city. If the newspapers are to be believed, Phila delphia has retrograded sadly in a few years, in the matter of cleanliness. Here, as in New York, the CABLE ()BIM. BRA.TION was the albabsorbing topic. The exercises were opened in Independence Square with prayer by the Rev. Alfred Nevin, D.D.; addresses were made by Judge Kelley and Revs E. W. Hatter; after which there was prayer by the Rev. Dr, Willits, and the benediction by Rev. Mr. Wilmer. The meeting of the YOUNG MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION, now numbering some eighteen hundred members, was a most interesting occasion. Addresses were delivered by Rev. Dr. Leyburn, Rev. Frank lin Moore, Rev. W. J. R. Taylor; Rev. Wm Jenkins, and Rev. Dr. Sunderland, of Washington City. The Chairman, George H. Stuart, Esq., read the following tele gram, to be sent by the Philadelphia Asso ciation to the Christian Associations of Lon don and Europe • Brethren of London and Europe: The floods are lifting up their voice and . through their deep pathway we send our fraternal greetings. Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the. end of the world. The Lord reigneth l let the earth rejoice. Christ has rasp 119 one, and the Atlantic Cable flashes forth our union. Let us all stand up for Jesus. The Lord hath done great things for us, whereof we are glad. The Rev. Benjamin Wallace and the Rev. J. W. Dulles, who have been connected With the .Arneritan Prethyterian for the two years of its existence, have retired from the editorial chair, on account of other en. gagemente to the• Church. They will carry with there the good wishes of their brother editors, for that courteous and kindly spirit they hate always manifested, and for the ability with which they discharged ;their duties to their patrons. For the Preabgterlon Banner and Advocate Concert of Prayer—Synod of lowa It has been proposed that the Synod of lowa, as several other Synods propose doing, meet one day sooner than the time to which they stand adjaurned r and spend one whole day in prayer and conference respecting. the reviving of . God's work in our chucches. This is indeed a happy thought, which we hope to see acted upon'by all, and we hope there will be a full attendance at the prayer meeting, both of the ministers and the el ders. And there is another very important thought. It has occurred to me, in connex ion itllkh this, that it might be well for the churches themselves to unite with the Synod in a concert of prayetr for the object, and I would beg leave, through your paper, respectfully to suggest this to the churches of the Synod of lowa. The- Synodical prayer•meeting commences on Wednesday evening, at, seven o'clock. At the same hour, let all our churches meet at their eev- oral places of worship, with this specific ob. jsct before them, viz., to unite with the Synod in specisl prayer that Geed would be pleased to revive his work graciously in all our churches. On Wednesday evening most of our churches meet regularly for prayer; and on this occasion let us consecrate the hour to this specific object. Then shall there be truly a concert of prayer observed by the Synod, and the people at the same hour, humbly supplicating the same blessing. It is not for the ministers and elders.alone to pray, nor does the responsibility of Zion's prosperity rest upon them alone. The prayers of ALL who love the Lord Jesus, should ascend unitedly for this blessing; and the prayer of the humblest and ob sourest of God's people is heard :and an swered as speedily as the prayer of the most prominent man in the Church. Let us, then, observe the hour together. For the Presbyterian Banner and Advocatie Mournful Casualty. !. On Wednesday evening, September Ist, Miss Matilda A. Caldwell, daughter o lion. David Caldwell, of Hollidaysburg, Pa., left her father's residence to attend, as-wis her' regular custom, the Wednesday lectno and prayer-meeting, at the Presbyterian church. Having started early, she called to a Sabbath scholar of her class, who had been sick) and also made one or two calls upon her young lady friends. One of these walked with her toward the place of wor ship. As they passed the house of the Rev. Mr. Knight, of the Lutheran church, sev eral young friends were at the gate, and they, with Mrs. K., invited them in, to 'see a niece of the latter, who was that evening to be married. She went in to see her 'friend, the bride, not having known of the marriage until on her way to prayer-meet ing, and was urged by the latter to remain, as no company had been formally invited. After a little hesitancy, she consented, and passed a cheerful and pleasant evening. The company separated a little befOre 11 o'clock. But a shorn time before the separation, she went into the Library, and was ex amining the books, and had her attention directed to Fleetwood's Life of Christ, in the beautifully ornamented edition, quarto, of the London press. She was seen to gaze, with solemn countenance, upon the fine en graving of the Thorny Coronation, and then to ha her attention upon the engraving of the Agony in the Garden. After thus gazing intently, she read, with soft impres- sive tones, the words printed beneath this picture—Matthew's version of the agodiz ing prayer: 0, nay Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me : 'nevertheless, not as I will, but as thou wilt!" These words, as thus read, seem now to have been almost prophetic. They were the last words she ever read on earth; and the incident seems most singular, that she should thus with draw fro/h the cheerful bridal company, to the quiet of the Library, and there read this touching and impressive prayer, just a few minutes before her intercourse with this life should cease forever ! She•and the friend with whom she came, were about to go home, and just as they reached the door, two carriages, from the country, belonging to the family of the bridegroom, drove up to receive the delll• bers of the family that were returning home, when it was suggested by some of the com• pany that, before doing so, they might con vey the two young ladies to their residences. This was acceded to, and in a few minutes the carriage that bore Miss Caldwell was approaching near to her father's dwelling, when a sudden streani of light from some window in the street, affrighted the horse, and in the efforts of the young man to man age him, the line, (a very stronzone,) broke ; the driver sprang out to seize the horse by the head, but be broke away, and dashed down the street. Miss C. was either thrown out, or sprang out herself, and received, in the fail, a blow upon the head, which pro duced hemorhage upon the brain, termi nating in death in three hours. Kind physicians were promptly in attend anoe—her pastor was soon by her side—her family all (except' her attached father, who was absent in attendance upon offiCial duties, at the Agricultural College,) were soon around her. But neither medical skill, nor prayers, nor tears, could stay the hand of death; and at Si o'clock, on the morning of the 2d inst., without a word to those whom she had.so recently left, she died. But she slept in Jesus. She left no dying voids, but her life of lovely and consistent piety left a clear testimony behind her, that though summoned suddenly, she was ready for that summons. For several years she bad been a consistent. and exemplary mem ber of the Presbyterian Churah. During the revival of last Winter, and still more re cently, she manifested much interest for Christ's cause; and though gentle and re tiring, she was steadfast and sincere in her loyalty to her Saviour. No more will her sweet voice be heard in our choir on earth— no more will her musical talent and skill aid in our devotions here, as in times'past; but although her fingers no more may touch a musical instrument of earthly make, in praise of lied, we do not doubt that her hand will sweep a golden harp above, and her voice join in the harmoniee,of heaven, as they swell the Emig of Moses and the Lamb. A vast concourse followed the remains of this lovely young Christian (for she was only just out of her twenty-first year,) to the grave; and her sudden, departure has made a profound 7 --oh I way it be a profit. able—impression upon, this community. May all heed the solemn warning thus giv en ; and may her stricken' family be ena bled, to adopt the last words 91 holy Scrip ture which her lips ever pronounced : gg Nevertheless, not as we will, but as thou wilt, II" , D X. .

The 'Yellow Fever. A few cases of this frightful malady have oc curred at several places along the seaboard. It 'seems to be epidemio at New Orleans. In that city it prevails extensively, and, what is most alarming, it attacks and .carries off the native born, and even the children of the native boin. On September 31 the deaths were eighty-five. In Charleston, S. C.,.the deaths , by this disease, for the week ending September 4th, were seven ty•three. On the evening of the Ist inst., the hindmost car of the passenger train on the Allegheny Vol ley Railroad, about fourteen miles from the city, broke loose when passing a curve, and was pre cipitated over an embankment of twenty feet in height. A younglady, Miss Kinkaid of this city, was killed instantly. There were about forty persons in the oar. Twenty were wounded, a few of - them seriously, but not dangerously. There were indications that the car bad been thrown off the track previously to the breaking of the coup. ling. The train was going at about its usual speed. The accident seems to have been caused by a piece of a broken break, on the track. The passengers were mostly Pittsburghers, returning from a Camp Meeting at Tarentum. The Sunbury . and Erie Railroad The lettings for the remaining unfinished sec tions .of the SunburY and Erie Railroad, from Farrandsville to the mouth of the Sinnamahoning, were held at Farrancisville, about five miles from Lock Haven, on the 25th ult. There remained but twenty two unfinished sec tions to complete the road to the Sinnamahoning,, a large part of which had alreaely been graded-- in all, a distance of about forty miles. When this is done it will finish, on the Eaetern dividion, a distance of nearly. one hundred and twenty miles Westward from the Eastern terminus, at Sunbury. The sections were allotted to highly respectable and responsible contractors, and at exceedingly low prices. .

Pennsylvania Psrm School. Tbis Institution, located in Centre: County, promises the most efficient aid to agriculture, practical and scientific. The Trustees, and es pecially some -of the Centre County gentlemen; are both intelligent and enthusiastic. They go at their work Eon amore, and do not tire. Au election was held, at the Farm, on the 26th" nit., for four Trustees. A largo number of gen tlemen, visitors from the East and West, met at Spruce Ci.eek, where they left the cars, and were conducted to the Farm, twenty-two miles, through ,a beautiful country, in carriages furnished by the citizens of Bellefonte and others. About two hundred persons were present on the election day, Messrs. H. H. 'McAlister, and James T. Hale, Of Bellefonte, and Archibald McAlister, and Geroge B. Brown, of Philadelphia, were chosen. A sump tuous dinner was discussed, several fine speeches made, and the buildings. &0., were examined. The following we quote from the Pittsburgh Ga. sette. Our personal knowledge of the farm, the country, and some of the gentlemen most active in the affair, enables us to speak of it with much confidence: • To the practical Agriculturist and Horticul turist, a trip to the Farm School will richly re pay the trouble; and the more so when once the School gets into Jul! operation.

The implements of hustandry used and approved, he will see set out for inspection, with remarks attached to each; different varieties of potatoes laid out to name, with the takers attached to the stalks; tables eJvcred with fruit—and what rt sight it will be, in a few years, to see the table of fruits, with its hundreds of varieties, and to know that f•'r the choicest of its varieties the friend of the school. has but to ask for scions, when they will be cheerfully given to him. A great many varietiex of strawberries, raspberries, etc., were tested. this year. Among the implements, the Illiehiwan plow lo used ; the horse hoe; the clod crusher and scar ifter; a light wreugbt•irou subsoil plow, for sink, ing among vegetables, etc. There was set a beautiful boiler, with a sidoet taehment of pipes to convey hot water to a Lite bed or forcing house, with a top attachment of hose which would convey steam to any adjacent building, to be used for steaming food for cattle, elo thee, or any other purpose. Attached to the School Farm there is a pang nursery of about five acres, with specimen trees of choice varieties of most of the fruits in the country. An effort is also being made to com plete an arboretum. The Slave Trade and the Captured Slaver.. A few Southerners have advocateda revival of the Slave Trade, but the body of the intelligent community there, and especially Presbyterians, resist the effort. The arrival of a captnted-slaver at Charleston, which we noted last week, has caused great excitement on -the slave question, and . is likely to strengthen the hands cog those who resist the movement attempted a .toward a re vival of this horrible traffic. , • There was a slight effort made toward testing the applicability of the laws of South Carolina, respecting negro sailors who come into the her but the State's Attorney decided that those laws did not apply; and the Attorney General of the 'United States decides in favor of the-power• of the general government over the captives. What shall be done with them, is a question? If released at the South, they would soon, under; State laws, be sold into slavery., If brought to Vie North and released, they would suffer ex— ceedingly from the climate, and would be a oltagis upon the community. But the ExeCative has ho right to release them, in this country. His esti power is "to make such arrangements as he any deem expedient for their safe keeping, support, and removal beyond the limits of the United States?! These negroes, four hundred and fifty-five 'in number, were shipped at Kabenda,, July sth, in Lower Guinea, on the brig Echo, late. the General Putnam, built in Baltimore, and formerly employed in the coffee trade between that port and She sailed from New Orleans on the bth pf Maroh last, with a captain, two mates, eight 3139,131ei:1, a cook, steward, and one passenger. The slaves were obtained within a circuit of five hundred mules of Kabonda. To restore them to their nai;;lve homes would be impossible. They may pos sibly be sent to Liberia ; but, wherever sent, tlitey must be humanely cared for. There died on . the passage, one hundred and forty of them, show!ing the severity of their lot and the cruelty of the slavers. The editor of the Charleston Nereury visited the brig, on her arrival there, and gives the *f lowing description of what he saw : "Upon clambering up the side of the 'brig, a strange and stprtling sight presented ittielf—a deck covered with native Africans in a state of complete nudity, with rare instances of a n arrow strip of rag, an inch wide, round the waist. These people were seated for the most part. with their legs stretched out flat or drawn up in. front or doubled up, 801110 squatted on their feet and hands. A few were staudingabont, arid a few ly ing down. None were tied or fastened in any way. The majority were very young, apparently from eight to sixteen years of age, some younger and some older; scarcely one,-ho iverer, °ger iwen ty five. Some of them were able-bodied., good sized, and in good ease ; but the greater part, half grown children only, weak and worn,. Many were f l much emaciated, and showed plainly the e y eas of their long and crowded passage in a con 'ned ship A few were evidently ill, and soon to die. All were pure black in color except the , dropsi cal, whose skins were tawny from disease. Their ; lair i is very short and crisp. Those who were well, ap peared curious and pleased, some of them ogling, and giggling, and chartering, and others smolting tobacco out of short clay pipes with cane ste 8, just as our, own negroes do- Those that were' thin and sick, locked dull and brutish, but there was nothing wild or ferocious in their aspect_ They looked amiable and docile, and readily obeyed the commands of the person vrhe had charge of them. They are great thieves, how ever, and appropriate whatever they caritin every occasion. MI "There were two hundred and forty-six males and-sixty females, who were kept separate on deck and in the holds. The men and boys were kept on the forward deck and in the forward hold, which latter is fifty-five feet long, nineteen feet wide in the broadest part, and narrow at the head, and forty.four inches high, the floor being formed of loose, boards, movable at pleasure. The hold for the women and girls is behind this. It is of the same height, twelve feet long and nineteen wide. Under this temporary flooring is stored the provisions, consisting of rice, peso, and the Water to drink. Their food is boiled like " hop pinjohu," put in buckets twice a day, at ten and four o'clock, and placed in the midst of circles of eight or tea each, and well guarded, to prevent the strong negtoes from taking more than their share, although all are liberally allowed. A pint of water is given to each, morning and eeeni)g. Most of them sleep on deck, being placed In close order, spoon fashion, on their sides, rind not per mitted to turn or move during the night. At day light they are dashed. with buckets of water, to wash them 2ff. They sing songs, clapping their hands and rocking their bodies in time, and these songs have a great. resemblance to some or our negro spirituals. Several of the negro fellows exercise authority very much aftei the manner of our drivers, with airs of authinity and ridiculous gesticulation and grimaces. Others were cooking the big pot' like good. fellowe, and with old breeches on, too, obtained from the sailors. The captain of the hold understands their lingo, and says they are very averse to going hack to Africa, as the United States law requires. Our coast re sembles that they come from, and the group of pines opposite the city on the South looks to them like 0000 aunt trees of their native Afriqa.: eThe slaver was captured hy, th 'United States ship Dolphin. The vessel is a prize, .half to the officers and crew. Twenty.flve diallers a'head for the captives is also to be paid to the captors. We trust that this is the beginning of strenuous efforts, on the part of our country, toward restoring every thing that claims Lobe American from hav ing any thing to do with the enormity. The slave trade being piracy, the penalty to the Echo': officers and crew, is death. The captain was sent to Boston, and the crew, WWI the brig, to Charles ton.

The treaty reported as having been concluded by the plenipotentiaries of the allied powers and China, does - not confer the right of having resi dent Ministers in the empire, but that Consuls General shall reside at Tieng-Sing, and have di rect intercourse with the cabinet of the Emperor. The London papers generally criticise un favorably the last paragraph of the President's message. The Deily Nem says there ie more simple dig nity in the Queen's message, but a great grasp of thought in the President's response, with, per haps, a dash of ambitious straining after effect. The Hews also states that it would have been better for the President to have omitted the last paragraph, about "hostilities." The Times believes the ocean telegraph will .be a guarantee of perpetual peace between the two countries. The bombardment of Jeddah by a British vessel of war, took the French Government by surprise, but explanations were made in London, to the minister, Peßimier. The rumor was gaining ground that the defini tive abdication of the King of Prussia had be come absolutely necessary.
