C3T Jacob Thompson, formerly Secretary of the interior, prints a Ion "letter donying the statements, Implicating him in the alleged frauds in that department under his administration, and refers to the fact that a congressional committee entirely exon erated him from any complicity in the al leged discrepancies. .EST The Senatorial Conferees from Blair, Somerset, Bedford and Fulton counties elected D. AY. Mullin delegate to the State Convention. Bodford and Fulton 'elected John J. Cromer Representative delegate. Both were unanimously instructed for Hon. Samuel Henry for State Treasurer, and both are friends of Hon. Wm. M. Hall, for Supreme Judge, Two Steamships have been lost this sea son, as is claimed by carelessness of the oflicers. The investigation in each case most have convinced the investigating board that the charges were well founded, as the Captains were both punished, by suspending thorn, from com maud. Sus pension by the neck in such cases would we think have a tendency to make such acci dents less frequent, and be a punishment hotter suited to the crime. Curious Libel Cage. The Paris correspondent of the Pall Matt Oazeltt writing on the 3d of July, tells as follows the story of the libel suit against James Gordon Bennett, proprietor of the New York Herald, just decided in the French courts: A curious case was tried here yesterday, and terminated in a decision which will no doubt rather su prise the American press. The facts of the case are as follows: In the year 18C8 Miss Perriman, a young American lady of wealth, fortune and intel ligence, married M. da Brimont, a noble man of the champagne country, and a gentleman well known in fashionable lifo. A year after the marriage Madame de Brimont died, leaving a daughter. M. de Brimont, who had no fortune when he married and whose tastes were most ex travagant, soon became aware of the pain ful fact that Mr. Perriman had no intention of supporting him in idleness. M. de Bri mont brought an action against his father in-law, and in accordance with French law Mr. Perriman was condemned to make him 41 n allowance of 18,000 francs a year, or 12,000 for his daughter and 6,000 fraucs for (himself. Mr. Perriman, being an irritable ud obstinate gentleman, disposed of his bouse and furniture here and returned to New York to avoid paying. M. de Bri mont pursued his relative across the Atlan tic and attacked him in the American courts, getting considerably the worse of the action. In fact, the tribunal of New York not only refused to confirm the judg ment of the French court, but it ceusured the conduct of the plaintiff very severely. The New York Herald and other Amer ican papers also condemned the conduct of M. de Brimont in the language of the country, and one of these articles was oopied into the American Begiil&r, published here. For this offence the editor of the Register was sentenced to one month's imprison ment, a fine of 1,00 francs and 80,000 francs damngos. On appeal this sentence was reduced to a fine of 1,000, francs and 3,000 francs damages. M. de Brimont having hoard that Mr. James Gordon Ben nett has just taken an apartmont in Paris, attacked that gentleman also ; and the ed itor of the New York Herald was con demned to the same fine as Mr. Kramer and 6,000 francs damages. It is said the proceedings were highly interesting, but - no account of thorn has been published in . the papers, which are forbidden by law to report press trials. Newspapers are gen erally prosecuted for the abuse of the gov ernment or libel ; and if the proceedings in Court were publUhed, every journal in Franco would be at liberty to reproduce ' the actionable article. : , , , tW About one hundred persons who par took of ice-cream at a festival held at Tuck erton, N. J.J on the 14th ult., were taken violently ill at about S o'clock on the fol lowing morning. One person died ' and several persons are not expected to recover. The symptoms wore" similar to cholora morbus.. The gentleman who furnished the ice-cream took some of it to Philadel phia to have it analyzed. urn jc jt Sewing Machine Kales.

The Troy Times relates the following concerning a well known citizen of that place who in 1845,married an estimable lady there : For a while they lived happily to gether, but on account of family dissen sions in 1848 they signed an agreement that they would live apart. The fruit of thoir union was a daughter, who remained with tlio mother. Some time after the husband, presuming he had been legally divorced, married again, and shortly thereafter his wife followed his examplo. In time the gentleman's second wife diod, leaving him a son, and a few years ago he married again. The first and third wives are still living, but a few days ago the gentleman died, leaving the bulk of his property, amounting to, $35,000, to his last wife and family, consisting of two children. Since the death of the gentleman it has transpir ed that, not having been divorced from his first wife, lie committed bigamy in marry ing again. The first wife will now bring an action, through counsel, to break the will, which has not yot been presented for probate. She claims that when the will was made ber flint husband was not in his sound mind, and that undue Influence was exerted over him. She will claim dower in all real estate transactions, and has engag ed counsel to prosecute her claim in be half of herself and daughter, the latter be ing also married.. All the persons are of the greatest respectability, and the case is a very hard one for all concerned. A Dutchman's Fancy. A German went into the lottory office in Louisville the other day and inquired for ticket No. 0. He either wanted 0, or 00, or 099, or 00,900. But no other number would satisfy him. On inquiry as to his reasons for this particular number, the following facts in his life were learned : He came to this country when 9 years old. After he had been here 0 years he got mar ried. . Nine months after the wedding his wife gave him a child. The baby, when 0 days old was christened. He lived with his wife 0 years and during that period his wlfo presented him with 0 children. Then he had a fuss with her, and she banged him over the head 0 times with the stave of a beer keg, from the effects of which he lay in bed nine days. lie left that wife then, aud had been a grass widower just 0 years on the day he applied for the ticket. Ho hoped with tioket No. 0 to draw money enough to recuperato his finances, which were reduced to $0 which he offered for the ticket. On being informed that there was no ticket remaining the number of which was composed entirely of 0's, he looked dejected, but immediately went out and drank 9 glasses of beer. Then he returned and said be would wait until only 9 tick ets were left, and then take them all. A Bold Bobbery. At MaysviUe City a bold attempt was made by three men to rob the bank of Decker & Jewett. . Frank Whipple, one of the robbers, enterod the bank and pre sented a pistol at Mr. Jewett'a hood. Mr. Jewett fell down and made bis way to the desk where Mr. Bingham, the chief clerk was writing. 'Whipple leaped over the counter, followed by Mr. Bingham, who instantly shot Whipple in the neclf. A desperate and general fight then ensued. Several shot were fired, when the com batanta clubbed their pistols. Finally Whipple turned to run out of the bank, when Bingham and Jewett simultaneously fired upon him with double-barreled shot guns, and be fell mortally wounded, to the sidewalk. Whipple says he had two con federates, named John Toney and W. P. Wlnklosy. They escaped and officers and citizens are pursuing them. Whipple is shot through the body in many places. 3T Wm. . TJdderzook, charged with the murder near , Penningtonvllle, was ar rested in Baltimore, on Tuesday last, while at work in a Planing Mill.' He was at onoe delivered to Sheriff Gill, of Chester county.

' The avorago time of the sicknoss of the patients wasj eight hours. The guards and outsido attend ants, who are not shut up in the colls at night, have been entirely free from disease. tMT" While a pious couple of Momence, 111., were at church ono recent Sunday their house was entered by a party of des peradoes, who hanged the solo remaining occupant, an old lady relation. Moral : Either the old lady ought to have gone to church regularly, or the rest of the family oughtn't. t3?"Somo Michigan boys fooling the need of some wholesome recreation, stuffed a suit of clothes with straw, and buried it, killed a couple of chickens, and strewed the blood around the grave, and trampled the ground so that it gave evidence of a fearful struggle. The horrified citizens soon discovered the grave, summoned the coroner, and impannolled a jury, dug up the body, and adjourned in a hurry. t3T"A fire broke out in the building oc cupied by the Navy Department on Tues day morning last. The building was se riously damaged, and quite a number of papers and documents, of value'to the gov ernment were destroyed. It is supposed the fire was lighted by rats getting among matches, Most people will naturally want to know why matches were allowed around loose among valuable papers. tW The miners employed at the Em pire Colliery, in the Lehigh region, ope rated by the Lehigh coal and navigation company, dissatisfied with the scale- of wages, have struck for an advance. The company have determined not to accede to their demand. It is feared that if the ad vance prices are not paid by the company that there will be a general strike among the miners of the Wilkesbarre region to compel other operators to pay a higher basis. As it is there seems to be an ex tended dissatisfaction througout the region. IW A clerical gentleman, in examining a Sunday school, asked the class before him if any of them could tell him anything about the apostle Peter. A little girl raised her hand, much to the gratification of the examiner. "Come up here, my good little girl," said he, "I am glad you remember your Bible lesson so well. Now, tell the othor boys and girls what you know of St. Peter." The girl was quite willing and commenced, "Peter, Peter, pumpkin eater, hod a wife and couldn't keop her : he put her in a ," but before she could get to " pumpkin shell" the school was in a roar, i Singular Death of a Clergyman. On Saturday afternoon, during the terri ble storm that prevailed, the Rev. Edward Snyder, who lives near Millport, this conn ty, was struck and killed by lights nlng. Mr. Snyder, with Owen Schmueber ger, had been mowing when the storm commenced, and at onoe started for shelter. On the way Mr. Snyder was struck and Owens badly stunned, but he managed to get into a barn near by. Mr. Snyder was found dead in the road where he fell. His hat was badly torn, and half of the back part of his shoe was entirely gone. There was a, hole through the leathern heel of the shoe the size of small bullet, also in the heel of his foot corresponding precisely with that in the shoe. The shoe on the loft foot was but slightly torn. Otherwise there were no marks upon the deceased person or bis clothing, except a bruise on the face, which was caused by a fall. The electricity apparently entered the upper part of bis body, and ' was discharged through his feet to the earth. There were no marks of the lightning where Mr. Sny der was strnok, nor had he anything ' with him which would be likely to attract the fluid. ilaueh Chunk Qaiett,: 1 1 - A Crippled Child's Matinee. The Cleaveland riaindealer says that P. T. Barnum's love for children is nroVer- bial. In Cleveland a little five year old cripple at a friend's house has become quite a favorite with the veteran showman. and the child has learned to expect a visit from his kind-hearted patron immediately upon his arrival in the city, and Wednes day, Barnum called at the house. The UBual greetings followed, but a shadow came over the little invalid's countenance as he remembered his inability to attend the menagorio. " Never mind," said Mr. Barnum, " if you can't go to the show, wo must bring the show to you," and then de parted. Presently, the child, and indeed the whole house-bold, was startled at Boeing a procession of elephants, camols and dronv edaries walk quietly past the house and halt in tho back yard. The performing elephants gave a matinee,and the beautiful child, bolstered up at the window, gave his orders with the air of a prince. In half an hour the procession reformed and, under tho charge of their keeper, the docile but ungainly animals marched back to the mo- nagerie. ' A Terrible Fall. A terrible disaster happened at Ionia, Mich., a few days since by whioh Professor LaMontaine, tho well known nronaut of Michigan, who advertised a balloon ascen sion, met his death. The Professor, who was a daring man, advertised to ascend from Ionia, in the afternoon. An immense concourse of people assembled to witness the assension. The balloon ascended about five hundred feet, when to the hor ror of the shuddering spectators, it col lapsed, tho ropes dropped down from un der the baskot, and Professor LaMontaine foil within a short distance of the point from which he ascended. Whore the body struck it made a hole in the ground nearly a foot deep. Murder and Suicide. Wheoling, W. Va., July 13. Great ex citement prevails here over a terrible trag edy enacted at Harmony, Pa.
