At a third funeral meeting, held the day before yesterday, la the bull which the fathers, for want of a better, are till forced to use. the council elected twenty-fo- ur members of the second grand "deputation" a permanent committee, being the Committee on I)icipline. The names of the fathers chosen will hardly be mado public, or even be known, to the elector themselves, for a week to come. The names of those ten days ago chosen to coin- - pose tue tir&t unu most iiiiui uuii, ui mo uum-mltte- s, being that upon iiiattcrs of dogma, were only mado public yesterday, though I tent i hem to you on pretty pood authority three or fourdavs since. Nono of them can bo considered fairly to represent that powerful minority in the council by which it Is now an open secret that the proclamation of the dogma of Papal Infallibility would be regarded a a rabimitous mistake. lhc r.ngiisii Are.n-bleh- of Westminster mid tue American Archbishop of Baltimore, for example, are understood to bo quite of the con- trary mind, and the Belgian Archbishop of Mechlin published In July last a letter expressly maintaining that "the primacy and Infallibility in the teaching of the faith are inseparable in themselves as well as in Scripture and tradition." In this letter the Archbishop of Mechlin quotes Benedict XIV, whom ho calls "that great l'ope," b admitting that Clement XII had abstained f romdcneuHclngBossiiet andthcGallican Church for their Insubordination ou this point, "partly out of consideration for such a man as Bossuct, who had so well deserved of religion, and partly from the too well-found- fear of ex- citing new troubles." If the Archbishop of Mechlin really admires this prudeucoof Clement XII. it must be hoped by those who wish well to his Church that he mav recom- mend I'iui IX to imitate it. For while it is certain that any proclamation of "Infallibility in the teaching of the faith" as an inseparable concomitant of tho primacy claimed for the See of Homo will now provoke only the derision of all non-Rom- Christendom, it is hardly less clear that It will excite within the bosom 'of the Koran n Church itself "new troubles" quite as formidable, to say the least of them, as those which Clement XII discreetly shrank from Btirring up. Of course, no one not a member of the coun-c- il can presume to speak with certainty of Its sayings or doings. But in Home even, more than elsewhere, a bird of tho air will carry mat- ters not nt all meant to be divulged out of the most sacred recesses, and it is really an open secret that the council has from the very first been disturbed, and still is disturbed by the obstinate indisposition of some of the members to accept the programmo prepared for them and for the Church by the Roman Court and its official representatives. The kind and degree of these differences may have been doubtless have been misrepresented. I doubt, for example, the truth of a story, which I have nevertheless heard In many most respectable quarters, to tho effect that the Oriental bishops, in the course of an Interview with the Holy Father accorded them only a few days ago, so far lost their tempers as to turn their backs upon the Pope, and march awav out of tho Vatican iu a body. Neither do I believe that there is any real ground for tho Impression prevalent here, even among good Catholics, that the Galilean bishops of the French Church chose to go out of the council rather than submit to a ruling of the Cardinal Presidents. The Italian, or, to speak more correctly, the Koman, advisers of the Pontiff may have a little .nw.WHt.iinntr.rl the nower of Koine, her local organizations, and her local in- fluence upon the minds even of Catho- lic visitors. Fifty or even twenty years ago, a convocation of Bishops jrom all parts of the world would have brought to Rome a concourse of men, tte vast majority of whom would have missed here nothing of the signs of civilization with which they were familiar at home, and would have found here many things more solemn and imposing than those with which they were familiar at home. During the last twenty years the rest of the world has made o much progress, and Koine so little, that this is no longer true. 1 kavo been greatly struck, In conversing with prelates of different nationalities and from different quarter ofthe globe, by the very general lack among them of an intense and profound admiration for Home as a city, and for its ecclesiastical monuments as monuments. Nor is the pomp of the Pontifical court by any means as effective now as it used to be. Its administrators bave failed to keep pace with the progress either of opulence or of taste among mauklnd. All this intelligent men, even though they be Cath- olic bishops, cannot fail and do not fall to see. The ceremonies which might have struck an aveiage Catholic bishop with awe a century ago, fail to produce the same impression, upon an average Catholic bishop to-da-y. KU-KLU- Cld-bleod- ed Itlnrrier The Victim Terribly Avenued. The Memphis Avalanche of January 23 says: Last Saturday night four masked persons visited Colonel David Coleman's residence, near King's Bridge, between Huntingdon and Treze-vau- t, and knocked at the door, and asked the old gentleman to como out. Colonel Coleman recognized the voice of the speaker, aud opened the door, when one of tho party fired upon and mortally wounded him. bearing the tiring, a on who was in tho house rushed towards the door and commenced firing upon the markers, . who broke and ran. , On Sunday morning a crowd of negroes rode into Huntingdon upon horses that were known to belong to parties in the neighborhood where the shooting took place, and being closely ques- tioned, one of the negroes came forward and made a full confession of the murder on the night previous, and detailed at length his con- nection with that and other depredations, and also disclosing the names of all engaged la the throughout the country. In the course of his confession, he stated that a negro living with Colonel Coleman had given informa- tion concerning a box that was concealed about the premises, containing upwards of t&JOO In money. Colonel Coleman lingered until Sunday even- ing, at which lime he expired. Ho was an old aud respected citizen of the county, and was Juighly esteemed by all. As soon as the confessions referred to above were made known, the sons and other relatives of the deceased took charge of the negroes and placed them under guard. Tuesday morning there was a general consultation of the citizens, and while mauy were in favor of dealing sum- marily with the prisoners, a majority of the peo- ple counselled moderation, aud insisted that they should be placed in jail to await a trial. This was finally done, and the negroes were lodged in the Carroll county jail at Huntingdon. But a more summary trial than that promised in the courts awaited them. That night Colonel Coleman's sons and some friends rode Into Hun- tingdon, rescued the prisoners from the jail, took them to the woods and literally riddled their bodies with bullet?.

Tho Richmond (Ind.) TtUgram relates the following: Another canting villain, who ha used the livery of Heaven to serve the Devil In, has cotno to grief, and now looks through tho bars of Bal- langer's Jail, at Centrevillo, awaiting trial for tho murder of the victim of his lusts. Without friends to find excuses for his villainy, and evi- dently not familiar with tho modern means of dodging justice, ho does not deny that he led an Innocent girl to her ruin. He does not even ask the Church to cover up his infamv, for fear that its exposure will "injure the cause of Christ." In the month of October last a man calling himself Salmon came to Henry Oaten, two miles weBt of Centrevillo, near Pin Hook, and with him was a woman apparently fifteen or twenty years his junior in age. They represented them- selves as husband and wife, and he repeatedly stated that he was a United Brethren preacher, and did preach several sermons in the neighbor- hood. He further stated that they were going West, Into Illinois, to take chargo of a new cir- cuit assigned him, but owing to the feeble health of his wifo ho tarried at Gates', and about three weeks ago the woman was delivered of a child. She and her child did well for the eight days following, when the woman was taken violently ill, with strong symptoms of poison, and lin- gered on until Friday night, the !20th inst. On the next day Mr. Salmon expresied tho corpse to Piqun, going with It. From Piqiia ho sunt It to Bodkin, In Shelby count), directed to Joseph and Elizabeth Lambert, and Salmon came back on Monday evening to Centrevillo, and on that night was arrested at Henry Gates' for tho mur- der of his wife. On investigation Mr. Salmon proves to lie tho Rev. S. S. Walls, of Van Wert county, Ohio, and Mrs. Martha Salmon, his wife, proves to be Miss Martha E. Lambert, daughter of Joseph and Elizabeth Lambert, of Shelby county, Ohio. Walls is a man of nboiit'thirty-flvo'ycar- s, a little above the medium height, black hair and eyes, full beard, and dressed in a suit of respect- able black. He would pass anywhere as a preacher of more than ordinary intelligence and culture. Although evidently anxious and de- pressed, he talks freely about himself and bis career. Ho confesses tho wholo story of his wrong-doin- only denying that ho is guilty of the crime for which he Is arrested poisoning his victim. He says that ho made the acquain- tance of Martha Lambert nearly three years ago, while travelling his circuit, and that ho seduced her. Finding that their gnilt must soon become known, he planned an elopement with her to the West, where they intended living together as man and wife. During their stay at Mr. Gates' a revival broke out in the neighborhood, and Mr. Salmon, as a minister, was urged to take part, and finally did conduct tho meetings, as he says, to prevent anysnppicion from falling on him, feeling satis- fied that he could givo "the Lord an opportu- nity to ble6S tho truth for the truth's sake. No suspicion of tho real rolation of tho parties seems to have occurred to any one In the neigh- borhood. The quietness of tho place and tho sacred robe of the priesthood seemed likely to protect them. The reverend villain has been a minister of the gospel, U. B Church, for many years, in good stauding; left an excellent wife and three or four children In Van Wert county, to run off with a girl ho had ruined, and for wtiose death, whether she died by disease, or by his hand, he is morally responsible. These are the outlines of tho horrible picture, but tho remorse of tho ruined girl, tho agony of her broken-hearte- d parents, the bitter humilia- tion of the deserted wife, tho flight of the guilty souls, their plans defeated by the shadow of death, the poor girl dying among strangers, per- haps by the hand of her betrayer theso things will never be revealed until the great day when the secrets of all hearts are made known. TUE SLA.WS0N BOX. Delight of Ntrret Trnvel-- An Abuse Calling tor Correction. Chicago, it seems, is, like Philadelphia, afflicted with the "Slawson." The following sketch from the Tribune will be read with sympathy here: Two months ago the City Railroad put one-hor- se cars upon Its route, under tho specious ploa that it did so for the public benefit. Every- body understands now that this was done, not to supplement, but to displace tho two-hors- e cars, to the great inconvenience of the public, and only to tho saving of tho expense of one horse and one man to each car. Take a scene on Thursday evening as an ave- rage result: The driver, after vainly ringing the bell, pulls np his horse, aud announces that there arc four fares unpaid, and that he shall not go on till he has the tickets or the money. Indignant shouts of "Goon! You've no right to stop ! Go ahead!" To which the driver, master of the situation, re- plies that he is obeying the rules, and thereupon (shuts the door. Interval, five minutes.wlth some uproar, much laughter, aud many curses. An ominous whisper arises, "Let's throw him overboard and drive on !' Driver is conscious of a flank movement, and explains that ho has given the right change to all moneys passed up. Diversion created by one passenger accusing another of confiscating his four cents. Indignantly denied. "Didn't I give you the envelope?" "Yes, dash you, and nothin'iu it." "I want them four fares," remarks the driver. Drunken man goes through an arithmetical calculation that tour fares are twenty-fiv- e cents, and, being disposed to go homo before morning, proposes to pay up. Not allowed to do bo by his companions, who "won't go borne till morning," aud as one of them sits in his lap and another one sits la his lap, the difficulties of drunken man getting to the box are obvious, and the jolly companions have the best of it. No signs from any quarter of specie payment. Time, ten minutes horse gone to sleep.atthe corner of Harrison street. No policeman in sight. Driver blandly remarks that he would like "them four fares." Told Ip reply to go to well ! - Change again demanded for fures already' paid. "Throw him over!" "Drive ahead!" "Smash the concern!" "Four cents!" "Them fares!" "Give mo back my fare, I'll walk !" The situation is getting interesting; the men passengers getting furious; tho women passen- gers getting pale; the driver getting frightened. Time, fifteen minutes, and tho driver gives lu in preference to going overboard, and consents, at last, to wake up the horse and drive on. But where were the fares? No doubt they bad been passed up, and were in somebody s pocket, for tbosoclety of that car was not all of the choicest. The question for the company is whether they mean this sort of thing shall con- tinue, to end in a riot and smashed car ? The-remed- y is plain enough cars, with conductors. Whether the company will be wise in time is for them to seriously consider. WOMAN'S RIGHTS. The Kfght to Violate Hood Breeding. During tho few moments that Prince Arthur was preseut at Mrs. Secretary Fish's reception on Friday evening, at Washington, and when the popular curiosltv was most earnest in efforts to secure a sight of "and an introduction, to his Koyal Highness, a lady dressed iu black, and evidently from the remote West, was presented to him by a well-know- n Illinois M. C. Whether it was thut the conversation took an unexpected turn, or that the republicanism of the lady was rather radically expressed, it Is hard to say, but an instant and general sensation was the result, PHILADELPHIA, MONDAY, JANUARY 'M, 1870. the Prince and Mr. Thornton coloring deeply and exchanging looks of cvhlcntetnbarrassinunt. To cap tho climax, tho angular representative of Western gauchtric boldly took the Prince by the hand, which fho shook heartily, parting wlt.h the expression, heard all over the room, "that's what's the matter." A momont aftorwards the Prince left to give vent to his mirth, somo said. riUNCE ARTHUR. How lie Hpent Nundny An Appropriate Prince Arthur returned from Washington to New York on Saturday night, and yesterday morning, accompanied by the British Consul and five other gentlemen, ho attended servico at Trinity Church. On his entrance the national anthem of Great Britain was played. The regu- lar services of tho day were solemnized by tho Kcv. Dr. Ogllby, the Kev. Mr. Whipple, aud tho Kcv. Dr. Vinton. The Kev. Dr. Dix preached the sermon from, the l!th verse, 'Jrth chapter of St. Matthew, on tho parable of the talents, in which he taught that every ono has his accountability proportioned to the position ho holds In tho world. The music consisted of the ordinary service, including the Te Jfum and Jubilate, the anthem "'I he Grace of (tod that Briugcih Salvation," and the offertory "And the Glory of the Lord,'1 from HamW's "Messiah." Mr. A. H. Mcssiter conducted the music of the choir, while John P. Morgan presided at the great organ. A solo in the anthem sung by Master Lindig, a chorister of remarkable strength of voice aud purity of expression, was greatly admired. It was noticed as a singular coin- cidence that a lesson for tho ilOlh day was tho 140th Psalm, in which occurs tho caution, "Put not your trust in princes nor iu anv child of man, lor there is no help in them.1' The choir boys, as they Intoned this verse, seemed to relish tho sentiment hugely, and their un- timely though excusable mirth was with some difficulty repressed. A large crowd was present during the services. The Prince occupied the same scat which his cider brother occupied when he worshipped In old Trinity; and after the de- parture of the distinguished visitor, n number of young ladies rushed into the pew, one at a time, to enjoy the ecstacy of sitting where a live prince had sat. After leaving Trinity the Prince was in a few minutes once more in his comfortable rooms at the Brevoovt, aud, making some slight changes in bis dress, lunched with tho members of his suite ut 1 o'clock. Several visitors soon after called and sent np their cards among others Moses H. Grinnell. William Butler Duncan, and E. V. Slclghton all of whom met with a cordial and polite reception. Half an hour was spent In social conversation, when tho Prince cspressed his desire to take a walk In order to brush up au appetite for dinner. About 3 o'clock, accompanied by lilts suite and Mr. Thornton, be left the hotel and walked olt rapidly up Fifth avenue. The gentlemen all wore "dark overcoats, light pants, high hats, scarfs, and carried canes of bamboo or somo other light material. Tho party was thoroughly English in style and appearance, and attracted much attention in the street. The Prince, wear- ing a coat buttoned tightly around him at the waist, holding his elbows somewhat out from his body, and bending forward at the shoulders, looked u little awkward and ungainly, but his abilities us a pedestrian are beyond criticism, and Weston, Topley, or Westhull would have died with chagrin aud envy could they bave wit- nessed his performance of yesterday. Rapidly passing up tho avenue, and looking neither to the right nor the left, tho party soon reached the Park, and turning into one of the smoothly graded paths, redoubled a pace which had been quick before Several people bad fol- lowed the visitors from the avenue, and many joined the throng in the Park, so that by the time the lower end of tho Mall was reached nearly a hundred people were keeping up a sort of dog-tr-ot in the rear of the Englishmen. Mr. Thornton looked around and saw the rabble fol- lowing in their wake, and at once led off down a by-pa- th in the direction of tho Eighth avenue at an increase of speed, with tho evident object of leaving his persecutors behind, and soon accom plished his purpose, for his pace was a hot one, and was not kept up long by many, even for the doubtful privilege of looking at a live prince. Going up the west 6ldo of the Park, tho party gradually swung around to tho Ramble and the Lakes, the Prince evldeutly enjoying his tramp thoroughly, and gazing with an admiring eye upon the many beauties which cannot bo seen nor appreciated while carriage riding. Soon after four tho party took up tho homeward march, and keeping up the same rapid gait, passed the gauutlet of admiring eyes on tho avenue, and reached the hotel again at balf- - Eaet five, homing covered in the two hours and a of absence eleven or twelve miles. At 7 o'clock the Prince and party dined.' Tho remainder of the evening was spent socially lu bis rooms, and in writing letters home. w he will drive again, and probably np tne moomingaaie roaa to mgn linage, ?o the evening, attended by bis suite, he will dine with Air. vuiiam a. uuncan. THE COMING MORMON WAR. Nome Excitement Afoonir the Gentile at Corlnte. The Corinne (Utah) Reporter of January 23 says: Many were the rumors circulated yesterday in regard to the hostile attitude of our Mormon brethren on every side. Some said they were confident of an early attack being made upon our city li tne uunom dm passes, in wntcn case, oi course, it wouia do razea to tne ground by the enruged polygamists, without warning or without mercy. This paper has frequently made mention of the abject helplesness of the Gentile citizens of this Territory, la case anything was done by the Government to offend our fanatic neighbors, who are already frenzied to despera- tion at the first mention of interfering with their inhuman modo of lifo. Should the Cullom bill pass, of which there is but little doubt, tho most inhuman outrages by thoso whose peculiar notions and practices are interfered with may not be ed for, for they will certainly come.' While we would avoid creating uuy undue alarm which miiHt necessarily retard the best interests of our Territory, we cannot sit idly by and console ourselves upon such promises as a well-retain- ed attorney made to his client. When the client, with, tears iu his eyes, approached his paid savior and warned him of tho extra exer- tions his enemies wero making to bang him, the bland attorney, already well paid and free frcra barm himself, says: "'Well, you just let them hang you if they want to. I'll make 'em sweat for it if they do." Now this is just what we don't want. Wo pay tho Government in lovalty and taxes for tho protection we ask, and we don't want to wait till after death to have our favors reciprocated. Tbore is danger of a bar- barous attack here any. day, and it is quite as true there is no protection hero for those not of tho Mormon faith. Will the Government take the hint? Since writing the above we are ad- vised of an enthusiastic, meeting being held down town, at which a military organization is being perfected for tho defense of the city, should the necessity arise. Late news from tho adjacent Mormon settlements have evidently aroused the citizens to a realizing senso of the situation, which calls for action. The Govern- ment will be petitioned for protection. A CONSPIRACY FOILED. JlrnruInK Burglar from the Iludano County Jull The Wall to bave been Demolished and tho Keeper Murdered , The sentence of the two notorious Now York burglars. Edward Kodgers and John O'Nlo), to the Trenton prison, created a stir among tho gang of which they are members, and their asso- ciates determined, It possible, to rescue them. The desperadoes belong la a gau kn vu us tho "Invlucibles," of tho Sixth and Fourteenth wards. Rodgers, whoso sentence is two:itv years, is well known by tho alias of "Skins," and has served one term for a similar offense. Tho gang numbers thirty odd. Immediately after the sentence, nearly all tho Invlnclbles being In Court, ono of them managed to com- municate with Rodger, as he was going into the court-roo- to be on tho look out that night. A note was olso sent to Rodgeri. with the follow- ing written thereon: "Keep a close" watch for us." .Meantime, Mr. Jones, Keeper of the pri- son, beard of the Intended raid, and Chief Robinson was also made aware of the fact. Eight extra men were detailed to guard the out- side of the jail, while Mr. Jones took precautions to have the inside well wntihed. Somo of the officers were stationed inside tho Court 1 louse, so that they could command unobserved a full view of tho prison. During tho night, several suspi- cious persons wcro seen in the neighborhood until a late hour, but theiftlice force being largo no demonstration was made. Yesterday, their plans were exposed to ono of the Now York ward detectives. They had intended to force an entrance to the rear of the prison through tho washhouso wall. Kodgcrs and his companion wcro to secure tho night watchman, and thus make their escape in turn. If thev had f illed to pick the locks, then the night watchman was to be compelled to open tne ecu noors. men no nnine-dlafe- lv felzed and gagged, and if necessary, he was to be murdered. REVELS. An 'interview svllh tho wly-Klerl- eil NesTO Hennlor How He J.ookn and What He will Do. WAnniNTON. Jan. 30. Hiram R. Revels, the colored radical Senator-elec- t from Mississippi, arrived here to-da- y and Is slopping with bis friend, Mr. George T. Downing, the colored re- staurateur of the House, on Capitol Hill. Some fifty colored men visited him this afternoon. He received their congratulations and said that, for the sake of his race, lie felt proud of his eleva- tion. Last evening a social party was given In his honor by Professor Wilson, the colored President of tho Freedmen's Bank, at his house on L street, where a correspondent called and had a brief conversation with tho first colored man ever elected to the United States Senate. Mr. Revels is a thick-se- t mulatto, with, a de- cidedly African but pleasant physiognomy, and bland, agreeable manner. Ho was born ln'North Carolina, and educated in Ohio, and is about forty-fiv- e years of age. His credentials will pro- bably be presented though he will not be able to take his scat until tho State is admitted. Lclng asked whether he expected his right would be recognized, he said: "O, yes; I have no reason to doubt It." Correspondent What will be tho first duty intrusted to you on entering the Senate ? Mr. Revels Well, as the Legislature of Missis- sippi has passed a resolution, which you have doubtless seen, requesting Congress to remove the political disabilities of certain citizens ot the State, it will be my duty to preseut that resolution to the Senate. Correspondent You then propose to tako ground as a Senator impartially for the whites as well as blacks ? Mr. Revels Certainly; I come as a repre- sentative of the State, irrespective of color. Correspondent But as a representative of the radical party? Mr. Revels Certainly; as representatives of tho Republican party of the State, they call us radicals, but still I am for the pcoplo, and the interests of the State at large. Mr. Revels, clad in a suit of black, with his not very curly, closely-trimme- d hair, with his checks cleanly shaven, leaving a closely-croppe- d beard on his chin, with his face all smiling and bis soft brown hand softly stroking the corre- spondent's knee, looked as benignant and phi- lanthropic as ono could wish. The lively con- versation of some twenty colored ladles and gentlemen rippled in his rear, and anxious glanctswcre cast towards him, which impelled the questioner to cut tho conversation short, but ono or two further interrogatories were therefore ventured. Correspondent Is it likely that you will have any important proposition to submit to tho San-at- e; any measure of your own ? Mr. Revels Well, as to that I cannot yet say. I don't think of anything at present beyond what I have mentioned. Correspondent I suppose you will be apt to tako a decided part in debato when you arc fairly on the lloor. '1 he fact that you were once a preacher would denote mat you were liable to talk a bit. How is it, Mr. Downing ? Mr. Downing, who overheard this part of the couveri-ation- , replied: "If there Is anything that Mr. Revels is particularly competent to do, I should say it is to talk." "Well," said Mr. Revels In his most genial tones, "there's one thing you'll find out about me; I don't talk when I haven't got anything to say. I never made a habit of It. I always listen to a debate on an important question with great Interest. Ever since I can remember I've been interested in legislative debates. If thee is anything to say when I am present and bave the right to speak, which hasn't been said by others and which can do good, I shall say it; but I never speak for the sake of putting myself forward or getting my name into print. I may have considerable to say, but I can't yet tell." In fact, the demeanor of Mr. Revels and bis talk about himself were almost unexceptionable. ' He seemed to be bv no means an Imnoslnir nrp- - sence, but rather that of one seeking to please all whom ho meets, though there is no telling but he may flame out as a raging orator on the senate lioor Detore the cioso ot tils snort term, which ends in March, 1871. He looks like a mau ablo to take care of himself In his own way, and who will not suffer himself to be brow-beate- n even by Sumner. EXCITEMENT AT HEMPSTEAD PLAINS Attempt to Murder A. T. Htewnrt' Asrat He i Kobbml C&Z07U. An account has been given of the robbery by highwaymen of a Mr. Leffert Bergen at Hyde Park on Friday last, which was not altogether correct. It appears that Mr. Bergen is tho agent of A. T. T. Stewart, Esq., iu his purchase of the Hempstead Plains proporty, delivering the deeds therefor, and receiving the money for the farmers, who would often call upon him for large sums. This made it necessary for Mr. Ber- gen to constantly have about blm considerable money.which fact, it Is supposed, became known to the robbers. Friday, at 3 P. M., he left in the train for Jamaica, intending to change the money be bad with him, about $2000, for a check, and called on Judge Fosdcck of that place for this purpose; but, as the Judgo was engaged, he deferred it until Monday. While at Jamaica he called only at four places and did not show his money at either place. He loft Jamaica by the ti o'clock Northport train for home, arriving at Hyde Park at 615. Neither on the train nor at Jamaica did ho notiee any suspi- cious parties. He loft the station Immediately on Its arrival, walking up the track, having first taken off his overeout, carrying It on bis arm. About a quurter of a mile from the station Is a large manure heap; Just as he had reached this and as be was leaving , the track going down the embankment, a flash, a deafening report, and a bullet whizzing by bis face warned him ot danger. Before he could entirely recover himself bo saw the robber at his side with a re- volver pointed at his bead. This man he ma- naged to knock down, but was Immediately shot by another, the ball passing through his leg, and at nearly the same time was struck by a third. Thus overcome, and being completely at the mercy of lilo assailants, to rob him was an easy matter. The three highwaymen secured all the money upon Mr. Bergen's person, amounting to $:i070, and then mado off, leaving liim in a deplorable condition.

The chango Is not great, however, and Is duo to a more active business demand at home and more than the usual shipments of currency westward for seve- ral days. There still remains a redundancy of money, which lenders find it dllilcult to placo at satisfactory rates. The New York market for the past week has been glutted with bank currency and specie beyond all precedent, and the former Is fre- quently loaned without interest. It Is quite pos- sible that the statement of our banks this even- ing majr show increased reserves, though w anticipate otherwise, from the cause assigned above. We quote call loans at 5 per cent, on Government collaterals, and choice business paper at 7S per cent, discount. Gold this morning bas been quiet, and there is no speculative activity in our market. The opening sales were made at 121, sold as low as l2ly, and stood at noon at about VIVi. Government bonds are rather quiet, with sales at about 6 per cent, lower than at tho close of business on Saturday. The Stock market was qulot at Saturday's prices.

Troubles Anticipated in Rome -Dis- satisfaction

of the FrenchClergy Tho World Pro-

gressiveRomeStationary.

Row it, DccemVer 23. At a third funeralmeeting, held the day before yesterday, la thebull which the fathers, for want of a better, aretill forced to use. the council elected twenty-fo- ur

members of the second grand "deputation"a permanent committee, being the Committeeon I)icipline. The names of the fathers chosenwill hardly be mado public, or even be known,to the elector themselves, for a week to come.The names of those ten days ago chosen to coin- -pose tue tir&t unu most iiiiui uuii, ui mo uum-mltte- s,

being that upon iiiattcrs of dogma,were only mado public yesterday, thoughI tent i hem to you on pretty pood authoritythree or fourdavs since. Nono of them can boconsidered fairly to represent that powerfulminority in the council by which it Is now anopen secret that the proclamation of the dogmaof Papal Infallibility would be regarded a arabimitous mistake. lhc r.ngiisii Are.n-bleh-

of Westminster mid tue AmericanArchbishop of Baltimore, for example,are understood to bo quite of the con-

trary mind, and the Belgian Archbishop ofMechlin published In July last a letter expresslymaintaining that "the primacy and Infallibilityin the teaching of the faith are inseparable inthemselves as well as in Scripture and tradition."In this letter the Archbishop of Mechlin quotesBenedict XIV, whom ho calls "that great l'ope,"

b admitting that Clement XII had abstainedf romdcneuHclngBossiiet andthcGallican Churchfor their Insubordination ou this point, "partlyout of consideration for such a man as Bossuct,who had so well deserved of religion, andpartly from the too well-found- fear of ex-citing new troubles." If the Archbishop ofMechlin really admires this prudeucoof ClementXII. it must be hoped by those who wishwell to his Church that he mav recom-mend I'iui IX to imitate it. For whileit is certain that any proclamationof "Infallibility in the teaching ofthe faith" as an inseparable concomitant of thoprimacy claimed for the See of Homo will nowprovoke only the derision of all non-Rom-

Christendom, it is hardly less clear that It willexcite within the bosom 'of the Koran n Churchitself "new troubles" quite as formidable, to saythe least of them, as those which Clement XIIdiscreetly shrank from Btirring up.

Of course, no one not a member of the coun-c- il

can presume to speak with certainty of Itssayings or doings. But in Home even, morethan elsewhere, a bird of tho air will carry mat-ters not nt all meant to be divulged out ofthe most sacred recesses, and it is reallyan open secret that the council hasfrom the very first been disturbed, and stillis disturbed by the obstinate indispositionof some of the members to accept theprogrammo prepared for them and for theChurch by the Roman Court and its officialrepresentatives. The kind and degree of thesedifferences may have been doubtless havebeen misrepresented. I doubt, for example,the truth of a story, which I have neverthelessheard In many most respectable quarters, to thoeffect that the Oriental bishops, in the course ofan Interview with the Holy Father accordedthem only a few days ago, so far losttheir tempers as to turn their backs uponthe Pope, and march awav out of tho Vatican iua body. Neither do I believe that there is anyreal ground for tho Impression prevalent here,even among good Catholics, that the Galileanbishops of the French Church chose to go outof the council rather than submit to a ruling ofthe Cardinal Presidents.

The Italian, or, to speak more correctly, theKoman, advisers of the Pontiff may have a little.nw.WHt.iinntr.rl the nower of Koine, herlocal organizations, and her local in-

fluence upon the minds even of Catho-lic visitors. Fifty or even twenty yearsago, a convocation of Bishops jrom all parts ofthe world would have brought to Rome a concourseof men, tte vast majority of whom would havemissed here nothing of the signs of civilizationwith which they were familiar at home, andwould have found here many things moresolemn and imposing than those with which theywere familiar at home. During the last twentyyears the rest of the world has madeo much progress, and Koine so little, that

this is no longer true. 1 kavo been greatlystruck, In conversing with prelates of differentnationalities and from different quarter oftheglobe, by the very general lack among them ofan intense and profound admiration for Home asa city, and for its ecclesiastical monuments asmonuments. Nor is the pomp of the Pontificalcourt by any means as effective nowas it used to be. Its administratorsbave failed to keep pace with the progress eitherof opulence or of taste among mauklnd. Allthis intelligent men, even though they be Cath-olic bishops, cannot fail and do not fall to see.The ceremonies which might have struck anaveiage Catholic bishop with awe a century ago,fail to produce the same impression, upon anaverage Catholic bishop to-da-y.

KU-KLU-

Cld-bleod- ed Itlnrrier The Victim TerriblyAvenued.

The Memphis Avalanche of January 23 says:Last Saturday night four masked persons

visited Colonel David Coleman's residence, nearKing's Bridge, between Huntingdon and Treze-vau- t,

and knocked at the door, and asked theold gentleman to como out. Colonel Colemanrecognized the voice of the speaker, aud openedthe door, when one of tho party fired upon andmortally wounded him. bearing the tiring, aon who was in tho house rushed towards the

door and commenced firing upon the markers, .who broke and ran. ,

On Sunday morning a crowd of negroes rodeinto Huntingdon upon horses that were knownto belong to parties in the neighborhood wherethe shooting took place, and being closely ques-tioned, one of the negroes came forward andmade a full confession of the murder on thenight previous, and detailed at length his con-nection with that and other depredations, andalso disclosing the names of all engaged la the

throughout the country. In thecourse of his confession, he stated that a negroliving with Colonel Coleman had given informa-tion concerning a box that was concealed aboutthe premises, containing upwards of t&JOO Inmoney.

Colonel Coleman lingered until Sunday even-ing, at which lime he expired. Ho was an oldaud respected citizen of the county, and wasJuighly esteemed by all.

As soon as the confessions referred to abovewere made known, the sons and other relativesof the deceased took charge of the negroes andplaced them under guard. Tuesday morningthere was a general consultation of the citizens,and while mauy were in favor of dealing sum-marily with the prisoners, a majority of the peo-ple counselled moderation, aud insisted thatthey should be placed in jail to await a trial.

This was finally done, and the negroes werelodged in the Carroll county jail at Huntingdon.But a more summary trial than that promised inthe courts awaited them. That night ColonelColeman's sons and some friends rode Into Hun-tingdon, rescued the prisoners from the jail,took them to the woods and literally riddledtheir bodies with bullet?.

MORE VILLAINY. -

t'httxtlnnllT A an In Oiiirmied-Fllul- it of aMarrtau 1'rcHChrr with a Vouiik tilri.

Tho Richmond (Ind.) TtUgram relates thefollowing:

Another canting villain, who ha used thelivery of Heaven to serve the Devil In, has cotnoto grief, and now looks through tho bars of Bal-langer's Jail, at Centrevillo, awaiting trial fortho murder of the victim of his lusts. Withoutfriends to find excuses for his villainy, and evi-dently not familiar with tho modern means ofdodging justice, ho does not deny that he led anInnocent girl to her ruin. He does not even askthe Church to cover up his infamv, for fear thatits exposure will "injure the cause of Christ."

In the month of October last a man callinghimself Salmon came to Henry Oaten, two milesweBt of Centrevillo, near Pin Hook, and withhim was a woman apparently fifteen or twentyyears his junior in age. They represented them-selves as husband and wife, and he repeatedlystated that he was a United Brethren preacher,and did preach several sermons in the neighbor-hood. He further stated that they were goingWest, Into Illinois, to take chargo of a new cir-

cuit assigned him, but owing to the feeble healthof his wifo ho tarried at Gates', and about threeweeks ago the woman was delivered of a child.

She and her child did well for the eight daysfollowing, when the woman was taken violentlyill, with strong symptoms of poison, and lin-

gered on until Friday night, the !20th inst. Onthe next day Mr. Salmon expresied tho corpseto Piqun, going with It. From Piqiia ho sunt Itto Bodkin, In Shelby count), directed to Josephand Elizabeth Lambert, and Salmon came backon Monday evening to Centrevillo, and on thatnight was arrested at Henry Gates' for tho mur-der of his wife. On investigation Mr. Salmonproves to lie tho Rev. S. S. Walls, of Van Wertcounty, Ohio, and Mrs. Martha Salmon, hiswife, proves to be Miss Martha E. Lambert,daughter of Joseph and Elizabeth Lambert, ofShelby county, Ohio.

Walls is a man of nboiit'thirty-flvo'ycar- s, alittle above the medium height, black hair andeyes, full beard, and dressed in a suit of respect-able black. He would pass anywhere as apreacher of more than ordinary intelligence andculture. Although evidently anxious and de-

pressed, he talks freely about himself and biscareer. Ho confesses tho wholo story of hiswrong-doin- only denying that ho is guilty ofthe crime for which he Is arrested poisoninghis victim. He says that ho made the acquain-tance of Martha Lambert nearly three years ago,while travelling his circuit, and that ho seducedher. Finding that their gnilt must soon becomeknown, he planned an elopement with her to theWest, where they intended living together asman and wife.

During their stay at Mr. Gates' a revival brokeout in the neighborhood, and Mr. Salmon, as aminister, was urged to take part, and finally didconduct tho meetings, as he says, to preventanysnppicion from falling on him, feeling satis-fied that he could givo "the Lord an opportu-nity to ble6S tho truth for the truth's sake. Nosuspicion of tho real rolation of tho partiesseems to have occurred to any one In the neigh-borhood. The quietness of tho place and thosacred robe of the priesthood seemed likely toprotect them.

The reverend villain has been a minister ofthe gospel, U. B Church, for many years, ingood stauding; left an excellent wife and threeor four children In Van Wert county, to run offwith a girl ho had ruined, and for wtiose death,whether she died by disease, or by his hand, heis morally responsible.

These are the outlines of tho horrible picture,but tho remorse of tho ruined girl, tho agony ofher broken-hearte- d parents, the bitter humilia-tion of the deserted wife, tho flight of the guiltysouls, their plans defeated by the shadow ofdeath, the poor girl dying among strangers, per-haps by the hand of her betrayer theso thingswill never be revealed until the great day whenthe secrets of all hearts are made known.

TUE SLA.WS0N BOX.

Delight of Ntrret Trnvel-- An Abuse Callingtor Correction.

Chicago, it seems, is, like Philadelphia, afflictedwith the "Slawson." The following sketch fromthe Tribune will be read with sympathy here:

Two months ago the City Railroad put one-hor- se

cars upon Its route, under tho speciousploa that it did so for the public benefit. Every-body understands now that this was done, notto supplement, but to displace tho two-hors- e

cars, to the great inconvenience of the public,and only to tho saving of tho expense of onehorse and one man to each car.

Take a scene on Thursday evening as an ave-rage result:

The driver, after vainly ringing the bell, pullsnp his horse, aud announces that there arc fourfares unpaid, and that he shall not go on till hehas the tickets or the money. Indignant shoutsof "Goon! You've no right to stop ! Go ahead!"To which the driver, master of the situation, re-

plies that he is obeying the rules, and thereupon(shuts the door.

Interval, five minutes.wlth some uproar, muchlaughter, aud many curses.

An ominous whisper arises, "Let's throw himoverboard and drive on !'

Driver is conscious of a flank movement, andexplains that ho has given the right change toall moneys passed up.

Diversion created by one passenger accusinganother of confiscating his four cents.

Indignantly denied."Didn't I give you the envelope?""Yes, dash you, and nothin'iu it.""I want them four fares," remarks the driver.Drunken man goes through an arithmetical

calculation that tour fares are twenty-fiv- e cents,and, being disposed to go homo before morning,proposes to pay up.

Not allowed to do bo by his companions, who"won't go borne till morning," aud as one ofthem sits in his lap and another one sits la hislap, the difficulties of drunken man getting tothe box are obvious, and the jolly companionshave the best of it.

No signs from any quarter of specie payment.Time, ten minutes horse gone to sleep.atthe

corner of Harrison street. No policeman insight.

Driver blandly remarks that he would like"them four fares."

Told Ip reply to go to well ! -

Change again demanded for fures already'paid.

"Throw him over!" "Drive ahead!" "Smashthe concern!" "Four cents!" "Them fares!""Give mo back my fare, I'll walk !"

The situation is getting interesting; the menpassengers getting furious; tho women passen-gers getting pale; the driver getting frightened.

Time, fifteen minutes, and tho driver gives luin preference to going overboard, and consents,at last, to wake up the horse and drive on.

But where were the fares? No doubt theybad been passed up, and were in somebody spocket, for tbosoclety of that car was not all ofthe choicest. The question for the company iswhether they mean this sort of thing shall con-tinue, to end in a riot and smashed car ? The-remed- y

is plain enough cars, with conductors.Whether the company will be wise in time is forthem to seriously consider.

the Prince and Mr. Thornton coloring deeplyand exchanging looks of cvhlcntetnbarrassinunt.To cap tho climax, tho angular representative ofWestern gauchtric boldly took the Prince by thehand, which fho shook heartily, parting wlt.hthe expression, heard all over the room, "that'swhat's the matter." A momont aftorwards thePrince left to give vent to his mirth, somo said.

riUNCE ARTHUR.

How lie Hpent Nundny An Appropriate

Prince Arthur returned from Washington toNew York on Saturday night, and yesterdaymorning, accompanied by the British Consuland five other gentlemen, ho attended servico atTrinity Church. On his entrance the nationalanthem of Great Britain was played. The regu-lar services of tho day were solemnized by thoKcv. Dr. Ogllby, the Kev. Mr. Whipple, aud thoKcv. Dr. Vinton. The Kev. Dr. Dix preachedthe sermon from, the l!th verse, 'Jrth chapter of St.Matthew, on tho parable of the talents, in whichhe taught that every ono has his accountabilityproportioned to the position ho holds In thoworld. The music consisted of the ordinaryservice, including the Te Jfum and Jubilate,the anthem "'I he Grace of (tod that BriugcihSalvation," and the offertory "And the Glory ofthe Lord,'1 from HamW's "Messiah." Mr. A.H. Mcssiter conducted the music of the choir,while John P. Morgan presided at the greatorgan. A solo in the anthem sung by MasterLindig, a chorister of remarkable strength ofvoice aud purity of expression, was greatlyadmired. It was noticed as a singular coin-cidence that a lesson for tho ilOlh day was tho140th Psalm, in which occurs tho caution,"Put not your trust in princes nor iu anv childof man, lor there is no help in them.1' Thechoir boys, as they Intoned this verse, seemedto relish tho sentiment hugely, and their un-

timely though excusable mirth was with somedifficulty repressed. A large crowd was presentduring the services. The Prince occupied thesame scat which his cider brother occupied whenhe worshipped In old Trinity; and after the de-

parture of the distinguished visitor, n numberof young ladies rushed into the pew, one at atime, to enjoy the ecstacy of sitting where a liveprince had sat.

After leaving Trinity the Prince was in a fewminutes once more in his comfortable rooms atthe Brevoovt, aud, making some slight changesin bis dress, lunched with tho members of hissuite ut 1 o'clock. Several visitors soon aftercalled and sent np their cards among othersMoses H. Grinnell. William Butler Duncan, andE. V. Slclghton all of whom met with a cordialand polite reception. Half an hour was spentIn social conversation, when tho Prince cspressedhis desire to take a walk In order to brush up auappetite for dinner.

About 3 o'clock, accompanied by lilts suite andMr. Thornton, be left the hotel and walked oltrapidly up Fifth avenue. The gentlemen allwore "dark overcoats, light pants, high hats,scarfs, and carried canes of bamboo or somoother light material. Tho party was thoroughlyEnglish in style and appearance, and attractedmuch attention in the street. The Prince, wear-ing a coat buttoned tightly around him at thewaist, holding his elbows somewhat out fromhis body, and bending forward at the shoulders,looked u little awkward and ungainly, but hisabilities us a pedestrian are beyond criticism,and Weston, Topley, or Westhull would havedied with chagrin aud envy could they bave wit-nessed his performance of yesterday.

Rapidly passing up tho avenue, and lookingneither to the right nor the left, tho party soonreached the Park, and turning into one of thesmoothly graded paths, redoubled a pace whichhad been quick before Several people bad fol-

lowed the visitors from the avenue, and manyjoined the throng in the Park, so that by thetime the lower end of tho Mall was reachednearly a hundred people were keeping up a sortof dog-tr-ot in the rear of the Englishmen. Mr.Thornton looked around and saw the rabble fol-lowing in their wake, and at once led off down aby-pa- th in the direction of tho Eighth avenue atan increase of speed, with tho evident object ofleaving his persecutors behind, and soon accomplished his purpose, for his pace was a hot one,and was not kept up long by many, even for thedoubtful privilege of looking at a live prince.

Going up the west 6ldo of the Park, tho partygradually swung around to tho Ramble and theLakes, the Prince evldeutly enjoying his trampthoroughly, and gazing with an admiring eyeupon the many beauties which cannot bo seennor appreciated while carriage riding. Soonafter four tho party took up tho homewardmarch, and keeping up the same rapid gait,passed the gauutlet of admiring eyes on thoavenue, and reached the hotel again at balf- -

Eaet five, homing covered in the two hours and aof absence eleven or twelve miles.

At 7 o'clock the Prince and party dined.' Thoremainder of the evening was spent socially lubis rooms, and in writing letters home.

THE COMING MORMON WAR.

Nome Excitement Afoonir the Gentile atCorlnte.The Corinne (Utah) Reporter of January 23

says:Many were the rumors circulated yesterday

in regard to the hostile attitude of our Mormonbrethren on every side. Some said they wereconfident of an early attack being made uponour city li tne uunom dm passes, in wntcn case,oi course, it wouia do razea to tne ground bythe enruged polygamists, without warning orwithout mercy. This paper has frequently mademention of the abject helplesness of the Gentilecitizens of this Territory, la case anything wasdone by the Government to offend our fanaticneighbors, who are already frenzied to despera-tion at the first mention of interfering with theirinhuman modo of lifo. Should the Cullom billpass, of which there is but little doubt, tho mostinhuman outrages by thoso whose peculiar notionsand practices are interfered with may not be ed

for, for they will certainly come.' Whilewe would avoid creating uuy undue alarm whichmiiHt necessarily retard the best interests ofour Territory, we cannot sit idly by andconsole ourselves upon such promises as a well-retain- ed

attorney made to his client. When theclient, with, tears iu his eyes, approached hispaid savior and warned him of tho extra exer-tions his enemies wero making to bang him, thebland attorney, already well paid and free frcrabarm himself, says: "'Well, you just let themhang you if they want to. I'll make 'em sweatfor it if they do." Now this is just what wedon't want. Wo pay tho Government in lovaltyand taxes for tho protection we ask, and wedon't want to wait till after death to have ourfavors reciprocated. Tbore is danger of a bar-barous attack here any. day, and it is quite astrue there is no protection hero for those not oftho Mormon faith. Will the Government takethe hint? Since writing the above we are ad-vised of an enthusiastic, meeting being helddown town, at which a military organization isbeing perfected for tho defense of the city,should the necessity arise. Late news from thoadjacent Mormon settlements have evidentlyaroused the citizens to a realizing senso of thesituation, which calls for action. The Govern-ment will be petitioned for protection.

A CONSPIRACY FOILED.

JlrnruInK Burglar from the Iludano CountyJull The Wall to bave been Demolished andtho Keeper Murdered ,

The sentence of the two notorious Now Yorkburglars. Edward Kodgers and John O'Nlo), tothe Trenton prison, created a stir among thogang of which they are members, and their asso-ciates determined, It possible, to rescue them.The desperadoes belong la a gau kn vu us tho

"Invlucibles," of tho Sixth and Fourteenthwards. Rodgers, whoso sentence is two:itvyears, is well known by tho alias of "Skins,"and has served one term for a similar offense.Tho gang numbers thirty odd. Immediatelyafter the sentence, nearly all tho Invlnclblesbeing In Court, ono of them managed to com-

municate with Rodger, as he was going into thecourt-roo- to be on tho look out that night. Anote was olso sent to Rodgeri. with the follow-ing written thereon: "Keep a close" watch forus." .Meantime, Mr. Jones, Keeper of the pri-son, beard of the Intended raid, and ChiefRobinson was also made aware of the fact.Eight extra men were detailed to guard the out-side of the jail, while Mr. Jones took precautionsto have the inside well wntihed. Somo of theofficers were stationed inside tho Court 1 louse, sothat they could command unobserved a full viewof tho prison. During tho night, several suspi-cious persons wcro seen in the neighborhooduntil a late hour, but theiftlice force being largono demonstration was made. Yesterday, theirplans were exposed to ono of the Now Yorkward detectives. They had intended to force anentrance to the rear of the prison through thowashhouso wall.

If thev had f illed topick the locks, then the night watchman was to becompelled to open tne ecu noors. men no nnine-dlafe- lv

REVELS.

An 'interview svllh tho wly-Klerl- eil NesTOHennlor How He J.ookn and What He willDo.WAnniNTON. Jan. 30. Hiram R. Revels, the

colored radical Senator-elec- t from Mississippi,arrived here to-da- y and Is slopping with bisfriend, Mr. George T. Downing, the colored re-

staurateur of the House, on Capitol Hill. Somefifty colored men visited him this afternoon. Hereceived their congratulations and said that, forthe sake of his race, lie felt proud of his eleva-tion. Last evening a social party was given Inhis honor by Professor Wilson, the coloredPresident of tho Freedmen's Bank, at his houseon L street, where a correspondent called andhad a brief conversation with tho first coloredman ever elected to the United States Senate.Mr. Revels is a thick-se- t mulatto, with, a de-

cidedly African but pleasant physiognomy, andbland, agreeable manner. Ho was born ln'NorthCarolina, and educated in Ohio, and is aboutforty-fiv- e years of age. His credentials will pro-bably be presented though he willnot be able to take his scat until tho State isadmitted. Lclng asked whether he expected hisright would be recognized, he said: "O, yes; Ihave no reason to doubt It."

Correspondent What will be tho first dutyintrusted to you on entering the Senate ?

Mr. Revels Well, as the Legislature of Missis-sippi has passed a resolution, which you havedoubtless seen, requesting Congress to removethe political disabilities of certain citizens otthe State, it will be my duty to preseut thatresolution to the Senate.

Correspondent You then propose to takoground as a Senator impartially for the whitesas well as blacks ?

Mr. Revels Certainly; I come as a repre-sentative of the State, irrespective of color.

Correspondent But as a representative of theradical party?

Mr. Revels Certainly; as representatives oftho Republican party of the State, they call usradicals, but still I am for the pcoplo, and theinterests of the State at large.

Mr. Revels, clad in a suit of black, with hisnot very curly, closely-trimme- d hair, with hischecks cleanly shaven, leaving a closely-croppe- d

beard on his chin, with his face all smiling andbis soft brown hand softly stroking the corre-spondent's knee, looked as benignant and phi-lanthropic as ono could wish. The lively con-versation of some twenty colored ladles andgentlemen rippled in his rear, and anxiousglanctswcre cast towards him, which impelledthe questioner to cut tho conversation short, butono or two further interrogatories were thereforeventured.

Correspondent Is it likely that you will haveany important proposition to submit to tho San-at- e;

any measure of your own ?

Mr. Revels Well, as to that I cannot yet say.I don't think of anything at present beyondwhat I have mentioned.

Correspondent I suppose you will be apt totako a decided part in debato when you arc fairlyon the lloor. '1 he fact that you were once apreacher would denote mat you were liable totalk a bit. How is it, Mr. Downing ?

Mr. Downing, who overheard this part of thecouveri-ation- , replied: "If there Is anythingthat Mr. Revels is particularly competent to do,I should say it is to talk."

"Well," said Mr. Revels In his most genialtones, "there's one thing you'll find out aboutme; I don't talk when I haven't got anything tosay. I never made a habit of It. I alwayslisten to a debate on an important question withgreat Interest. Ever since I can remember I'vebeen interested in legislative debates. If theeis anything to say when I am present and bavethe right to speak, which hasn't been said byothers and which can do good, I shall say it;but I never speak for the sake of putting myselfforward or getting my name into print. I mayhave considerable to say, but I can't yet tell."

In fact, the demeanor of Mr. Revels and bistalk about himself were almost unexceptionable.

' He seemed to be bv no means an Imnoslnir nrp- -sence, but rather that of one seeking to pleaseall whom ho meets, though there is no tellingbut he may flame out as a raging orator on thesenate lioor Detore the cioso ot tils snort term,which ends in March, 1871. He looks like a mauablo to take care of himself In his own way, andwho will not suffer himself to be brow-beate-n

even by Sumner.

EXCITEMENT AT HEMPSTEAD PLAINS

Attempt to Murder A. T. Htewnrt' Asrat Hei Kobbml C&Z07U.

An account has been given of the robbery byhighwaymen of a Mr. Leffert Bergen at HydePark on Friday last, which was not altogethercorrect. It appears that Mr. Bergen is tho agentof A. T. T. Stewart, Esq., iu his purchase of theHempstead Plains proporty, delivering thedeeds therefor, and receiving the money forthe farmers, who would often call upon him forlarge sums. This made it necessary for Mr. Ber-gen to constantly have about blm considerablemoney.which fact, it Is supposed, became knownto the robbers. Friday, at 3 P. M., he left in thetrain for Jamaica, intending to change the moneybe bad with him, about $2000, for a check, andcalled on Judge Fosdcck of that place for thispurpose; but, as the Judgo was engaged, hedeferred it until Monday. While at Jamaicahe called only at four places and did not showhis money at either place. He loft Jamaicaby the ti o'clock Northport train for home,arriving at Hyde Park at 615. Neither on thetrain nor at Jamaica did ho notiee any suspi-cious parties. He loft the station Immediatelyon Its arrival, walking up the track, having firsttaken off his overeout, carrying It on bis arm.About a quurter of a mile from the station Is alarge manure heap; Just as he had reached thisand as be was leaving , the track going downthe embankment, a flash, a deafening report,and a bullet whizzing by bis face warned himot danger. Before he could entirely recoverhimself bo saw the robber at his side with a re-

volver pointed at his bead. This man he ma-naged to knock down, but was Immediately shotby another, the ball passing through his leg,and at nearly the same time was struck by athird. Thus overcome, and being completelyat the mercy of lilo assailants, to rob him wasan easy matter. The three highwaymen securedall the money upon Mr. Bergen's person,amounting to $:i070, and then mado off, leavingliim in a deplorable condition. Ho succeeded

It Is a fact that whflo Mr. Dawes, CntMmirivnf j

the U. S. steamer Colossus, now at the Brooklyn Navy Yard, by romovlug her turrets, .buildcasemates, and furnish her with a battery ofthirty 15-in- guns, for which tho Bureau ofOrdnance have estimated aud will cost $200,000.

Other alterations la the vessel arc also con-

templated, which, with the guns, will cost Inthe aggregate about $1,500,000. Whether thesoalterations are made will depend on tho actionof Congress in the matter of the submitted esti-

Monetary affairs continue to wear an easylook In our market, though the supply and de-

mand are a trifle better balanced than duringthe early part of the past week. The chango Isnot great, however, and Is duo to a more activebusiness demand at home and more than theusual shipments of currency westward for seve-ral days. There still remains a redundancy ofmoney, which lenders find it dllilcult to placo atsatisfactory rates.

The New York market for the past week hasbeen glutted with bank currency and speciebeyond all precedent, and the former Is fre-quently loaned without interest. It Is quite pos-sible that the statement of our banks this even-ing majr show increased reserves, though wanticipate otherwise, from the cause assignedabove. We quote call loans at 5 per cent, onGovernment collaterals, and choice businesspaper at 7S per cent, discount.

Gold this morning bas been quiet, and there isno speculative activity in our market. Theopening sales were made at 121, sold as low asl2ly, and stood at noon at about VIVi.

Government bonds are rather quiet, with salesat about 6 per cent, lower than at tho close ofbusiness on Saturday.

The Stock market was qulot at Saturday'sprices. In State loans, sales of the War Loancoupons at 103), and of the third series of 6s at100 for tho new bonds.
