BATTLES OP CHATTANOOGA.
[CONTINUED FBOIC FIRST PAGE.]
ticn. Grant, standing on Bald Knob, plainly
Baw their movements to the right, and felt
that the moment to strike bad come, antici
pating ns a result of Sherman's persistent ef
forts, this massing of Bragg's forces on the
right. -Grant had formed'in the valley on
either side of Bald Knob two strong storming
parties. The right one was under the imme- ’
diute command of Gen. Palmer, and consist
ed of the division of Gen. Sheridan and the
two brigades of Gen. Johnston, not hitherto
engaged. On thcleft the storming party con-
Bitted of Gen. Baird and Wood's divisions,
under the immediate command of Gen.
Cordon Granger. These had been lying 1
for some hours awaiting the word of
attack. It was three o'clock when Gen.
Grant pronounced that word, and in fire
minutes after, the two grand columns moved
gradually to the attack. They were ordered
to strike the mountain at points about a mile
apart, and to make the ascent as rapidly as
■was consistent with good order. Immediate
ly bn reaching the summit, the two forts
were taken possession of and held.
The enemy was encountered in considera
ble forec in his rifle-pits at the foot of the
mountain, but after a weak resistance, the
rebels turned and lied, endeavoring to reach
the summit of the hilL In this few were suc
cessful. Many laid down in the trenches and
surrendered, while many others were shot
down aa they ran up the hllL Our men
pushed on, without hailing, through the de
scried rebel camps, and began the steep and
difficult ascent of the ridge. , ,
It was now that the weakness of the rebels
In the center displayed itself, The line of
musketry lire was not heavy; and it was soon
seen that they had but few supports for their
nrtillerr General Grant soon saw that this
wJieomposed of numerous pieces, for from
every point along the ridge they belched forth
grai>e and canister at theheayr columns,now
so rapidly advancing. But this did not serve
to stay the fresh, eager men, who bad Chick
aniauga to revenge. Upon the hill there
stood the fiftv guns they Md lost at Chicks-
Tnnqpp and Interest on them of twclvepleces
“ore: As If inspired with new and
vigor the men pushed forward, each striving
with tbe other as to who should reach tbe
summit first. This rivalry extended to regi
ments, brigades, divisions. It has become a
question which will never be settled. It is
enough that they readied the summit, and
they secured sixty-two iron and brass and steel
proofs of that fact. ~ , ,
Gen. Turchin's brigade, of Baird's division,
on reaching the summit Immediately pro
ceeded to occupy the center fort, while one of
Gen. Palmer's divisions secured the one on
the rebel left. Gen. Torchln had not yet got
ten his entire brigade into the work, before he
was attacked most furiously by the enemy.
He hastily pushed forward the rest of his
jnente, to the support of those engaged with
an overwhelming force,' for the enemy, find
ing ns in possession of the ridge, made a des
perate effort to recover from lus disaster, and
charged Turchin with all tbe forec he bad to
sprre from Sherman's front. But no sooner
hud the reinforcements of Turchin gotten Into
position, than't he rebels, recognizing that all
was lost, turned and fled down the mountain,
groking safety in disordered flight. The hat
tic was over and at 5 p. m,, on Wednesday
D Tims ended in a magnificent feat of arms, a
series of as brilliant operations as this war
l,do yet witnessed. The result to us can
Jmrdly be calculated. The siege of an im
portant stronghold has been raised by the al
most complete destruction of the besieging
force. The enemy in onr immediate front
driven to seek safety In flight, the rear of the
no less dangerous enemy in front of Gen.
Burnside Is so exposed that he can only pro
tect himself by retiring. Already the tele
graph Informs ns that ho is retreating to Dal
ton. The enemy who but yesterday was of
fensive has now been forced to take the de
fensive. Onr communications are intact, and
last, but not least, our army has been enabled
to push forward, and will doubtless soon
strike the flying foe.
Our losses are estimated at 500 killed and
2,500 wounded. We have lost no prisoners.
The losses of the enemy have been men
tioned at 2,000 killed and wounded, and 7,000
prisoners. Gen. Grant's latest dispatch says
wc have taken slxty-two pieces of artillery.
Wo have received, and published below a
number of casualties in Ohio, Indiana and
other Western regiments. Wc are dally ex
pecting from our correspondents full lists of
thekfflod and wounded in tbe remarkable
battles of Chicamanga.

llow to Improve Chicago Harbor.
Editors.Chlcago Tribune:
"We all expert that Chicago Is to last for cen
turies, and her commercial importance will in.
crease year br year. Is it not important that wc
lock anead a little and commence now a work
that must eventually be done, and which will re
qulieyearstoaccompllbhf No one is so ignorant
as not to know that a bay is letter for a harbor
than a point. The tendency of the present harbor
Ss to a point, and a very awkward bay. How
can this bo remedied? Here is the plan—run a
pier at once half a mile out into the lake, storting
a mile and a half above the present pier. Sand
will accumulate on the North Bide, ana a bay will
foimontbc South. There arc several Instances
along the lake where this result has been obtained.
As the land forms, continue the pier into the lake.
Jo -tide for three miles to the Booth of this point a
b* antifal and safe bay, of which the moatbof the
met will be the centre. This might interfere with
li e Waterworks—all right. Lay aside the present
Li tnbngof a tunnel (which mark my word will
J iores failure) and erect Water Works five mile?
rerth of the city, and convey the pare cool water
re tbe city by mr-ann of aqueduct or pipes, that
v-11 furnish a supply for all time. The last plan
v 'uldbe cheaper, and more feasible, as well as
t jre permanent. Bat leaving the Water Works
r»vt of the question, let ns at once constrect the
i j, and let the harbor of the future begin to form
li clt A.
THE CITY.
Lae cent. —Put Burns, a West Side cord
cordwalner, and Annie Crowley, were yesterday
examined and held to ban in tbe aam of SSOO each
La their appearance before the Becorder'a Court,
for having stolen about S4O in cash and-a lot of
clothing, the whole valued -at nearly S2OO, from
Ellen Welch, comer of North Wells and Huron
streets, on Tuoday night last.
, Personal.—Bon. N. B. Judd, United States
Minister to Berlin: Gen- Charlesß.Stuart,New
York; Hon. David Davis and family; Hon. Tbo*.
J. Turner, of Freeport, Illinois; Gen. Ward H. La
men, Washington City; H. H. Swoetzer. Superin
tendent of the Atlantic A Great Western Ballroad,
and D.L, Phillips, United States Marshal of the
Southern District of JUinola, are among the arri
vals at the Trcmont House. '
CJKcnwzTi Ahead—Aw Example fob
Chicago.— Tbe City Council of Cincinnati la about
to adopt the Kounod system of fire alarm and po
lire telegraph. Tbe cost of this almost absolutely
necessary institution will only reach $65,800.
This leone of the substantial, money-saving en
terprises of modern times, and we expect some
thing of the sort at the hands of our Common
Council, In Chicago.
Killed. —Chas. H. Lane, Ist Lieutenant
of the 88th regiment, was killed In the late battle
et Missionary Bldge. He was formerly from
Northfldd, VL, but at the time of enlistment was
engaged In the machinery department of the Ga
lena and Chicago Ballroad shops. He went as
Sergeant, and was rapidly promoted to the Ist
JJentcnantcy. He leaves a widowed mother and
two sisters in Quebec.
Almost an Accident.—A tug, with the
schooner Norway in tow, ran into the Bush street
Any, yesterday. The ferryboat had two men and
a woman in it, who and very
very much frightened by-the collision, but no
other damage was done. It seems that the tug
and schooner were so small that the men In charge
of the ferry could not see them, and consequently
could take no steps to avoid a collision. The
appointees of tbe present city administration seem
remarkable for shortsightedness and stupidity gen
erally. *
Stone Turned Up Again, fob Burglary.
John Stone, who was arrested recently for hav
ing counterfeit money in his possession, and re
la. sod on a writ of habeas corpus, was yesterday
morning arrested for burglary and theft—having
'entered the house of J. A. Marshall, No. 281, Huron
street, about the 80th of June last, stealing at
the same time $125 worth of property, which has
but recently been fonnd and identified. He was
brought before Justice Brown yesterday afternoon,
waived the examination, and was held to bail In
the sum of SBOO, in default of which he Was .com
mitted to Jail to await the action of the Grand
Jnay. _____
Funeral of Dr. Dempster.—The services
appointed are as follows: Prayer at 11 o'clock A.
Mi at the residence of George V. Foster, Dearborn
street. North Division, opposite Bush Medical Col
lege, by Bcr, Dr. Patten. There wifi be a speda
train from the Milwaukee depot, (Elnzle street)
leering at 12:80 P. K, and leaving Evanston about
4P. M.« returning. Tbe corpse will be conveyed
to the Church in Evanston, where services will be
conducted by various clergymen. Sermon by Bev.
Dr. Eddy.
Illegal Assessments. —The city adminis
tration is becoming famous for its blunders, as
well as infamous for its many unwarranted as
sumptions of power. We noticed some time ago,
matters of great stupidity In the department of as
sessments. We believe the authorities prescribed
a raising of salaries as a panacea, bnt matters there
seem still to be of the mix-plckle order. By some
ambidextrous proceeding, lots fronting on Michi
gan avenue have been assessed fbr the paving of
Wabash avenue! So we are informed by a prop
crtyK)wner. Of course such an assessment Is in
valid. and the Treasury must foot the bills of stu
pidity. How much of the city’s money is Mayor
Shaman warranted in spending upon the educa
tional course, going on in the department above
referred to? Every man to his trade.
The Nobth Stab Mission.—Among the
visitors at the North Star Mission, on Sabbath
afternoon, was Bon. Daniel 8. Dickinson, who
responded to an invitation from the Superin
tendent, and delivered an address of considerable
interest. It being a concert Sunday with tbe
school, the attendance was unusually large. Includ
ing teachers and visitors, there were over nine
hundred present.
Tableaux at Bbtan Hall to-night.—The
first Is tbe series of these popular entertainments
will he gives to-night. The programme Is a rich
one. The grand representation of “ Belahazar's
Feast ” will alone be worth the price of admission.
The “Aquarium” will be a novel spectacle, repre
senting living mermaids, and also the great poly
wogloden.
Nine pieces of equal attractiveness finish the pro
gramme, besides muslefroma full orchestra, sing
ing by some of Chicago's favorites maybe expect
ed. Co early and secure a seat, as there will be a
full house. . ; j
Peoceebs or the Half Osphan Asylum
Fair.—The managers of the Nursery and Balf
Orphan Asylum wish to announce, as the nett pro*
coeds of tbe late Falr/the handsome sum of $1,751.
We present our thanks, also to the numerous
friends who so generously .assisted ns. .To name
those friends would be impossible, so numerous
have they proved, but to tbe editors, grocers, con
fectioners, oyster and fruit dealers, landlords, jew*
ek-rs, merchants, druggists, bakers, packers, and
last, but by no means least, to the ladles, who so
kindly furnished and served the tables, we give
oor warmest The amount received is suf
ficient to meet our current expenses for several
snenthe, at the present rate of expenditure. The
demand upon our resources, however. Is rapidly
increasing, no less than fifteen, most of them sol
diers' children, having been refused admittance
during the past week, no possible place being
fotmd for them. Some means of supplying the
wants of this class of children must speedily be de
vised: so that it will readily be seen that tbe euro,
though large. Is none too large for the exigencies
of the case.
Inquest.—An Inquest was held yesterday
by Coroner Summerfield on the body of Doctor Ol
iver Tiffany, in Baden, in the town of Clccro. Dr.
Tiffany was a surgeon in the regular army daring
the administration of James K. Polk, being then
detained at Buffalo. About a year ago he was act
ing surgeon at Camp Douglas, in this dty, and for
the past year has been residing at Harlem, paying
some attention to the practice of his profession,
although somewhat dissipated. Be went Into tbe
parlor of the Oakridge Bouse where he was hoard
ing* Sunday evening, about nine o'clock, complain
ed of a pain In his chest, lying down on the lounge,
and died in fifteen or twenty minutes. There were
several persons in the room. A physician was Im
mediately sent for, but life was extinct before he
could get there. In tbe pocket of the deceased was
found a bottle containing laudanum slightly dash
ed with fcomc other liquid. 'The jury returned a
verdict that the deceased died from some nature]
CLuee, to the jury unknown.
St* Andrew** Society** Banquet,
At the Briggs House, last night, Anld Lang Syne
was not forgotten, and it was certainly brought to
mind in a style which, if hitherto equalled, has
certainly not been surpsasedby the seventeen pre
ceding anniversaries. Precisely at half-past nine
o'clock, the assembled guests proceeded to foe
dining room two and two abreast to the
tune of the “Campbells are. Coming,” where
they partook of tbe exquisite viands provided
for them by mine host of the Briggs Bouse, than
whom a better caterer or more courteous gentle
man does not exist in the West The guests num
bered ISS, not counting many who were unavoid
ably absent Capt Win. James, President, in the

First—-The day. and a' wha honor it
Second—Tbe Queen of Great Britain.
Third. The President of the United Statue.

Fifth. The land we love, and the land we loft be
hind us.
Sixth. The poets and poetry of Scotland.
Seventh. May care and trouble ne’er lash, but

The above were given by tbe President Sever
al miscellaneous toasts were then given by foe
Tioo President and other gentlemen, including
**Tbe State and City of our adoption,” and “The
Commerce of the Northwest,” “The Memory of
George Washington,” and “The. Press,” to which
Ben. John Wentworth responded, and
paid a graceful tribute to It, in which he said that
with all its uses, and all Its abuses, it was the Po
lar Star of society. The hatmony being prolonged
considerably beyond foe ” wee short hours ayont
ibe twal,” foe ISth anniversary of the St. Andrews
Society terminated.
THE HOUR INSPECTION ORDINANCE
l aosEcmos lsdeb it is the police
COUET.
One Hundred X>oUar* Fine.
Benjamin Adams and John Q. Adams, constitu
ting the firm of B. Adams A Co., millers, were
prosecuted yesterday before foe Police Court, tbe
sold Institution being at that lime under foe Im
mediate superintendence of Charley McDonald.
7bo prosecution was for a violation of foe ordi
nance lately passed by tbe Common Conned con
cerning foe inspection of flour. In order that our
readers, who may not bo familiar with the pro
ceedings of foe Common Council, may know the
fnß height, lenghtb, breadth and depth of the in
iquity tor which foe gentleman have been con
demned to pay ajlne of one hundred dollars, we re
publish that section of the ordinance with foe
violation of which they are charged:
Sxcno* 3. It Shan be the duty of every person,
dealing in flour at wholesale or retail, before
hjUioc «m» Hour, If its inspection be desired by
the buyer or seller thereof, to procure the same to
bo Inspected by the city flour Inspector or bis
deputy, and such person shall have the same pro
perty arranged so as to be accessible to such in
►portion: and the term inspection, as employed In
the ordinance to which this is an amendment,
rhall bo held to embrace any examination by an
expert, or other person, of flour, by sample or
otlieivriee,in order to ascertain thequalUy thereof.
Every person violating the provisions of this or»
dinanco shall be lined five dollars for each and
every barrel so sold without such inspection.
The flour which the city Inspector ought to have
inspected, but didn't, bad been purchased by a
Hr. Hoteling, of one HoU, but the bills had been
sent in in the name of B. Adams & Co* and the
check for the money bad been drawn in tbolr ta
ror, and Hoteling had received from them a cer
tificate, which showed that the floor had been in
ppected by the Board of Trade inspector as he re
«nested It should be at the time of purchasing It.
■ Hr. Pent, who appeared as counsel for the do
fonse, took the position that, the term “such ln
rnectioD,” as need in the final clause quoted above,
meant the Inspection which was defined In that

against the occupancy of that street by the North
Chicago City Hallway Company. A petition waa
presented from others favoring the granting of the
pctiflon from the Company. Fully two hours
were consumed in speeches upon the subject, in
which the talkative members ** waded in.’ some
for and others against. Several motions were be
fore the Council at the same time, and his Honor
got them in a snail, and be and Comlsky had con
siderable ofa debate as to which was really before
the house. “Stovc-in” came out ahead, after the

Alderman Walsh said that it was reported
that the North Chicago Hallway Company had
fledged SIO,OOO to a certain gentleman, to secure

Alderman Woodman stared upon the authority
of the Attorney of the North Chicago Hallway

On Wednesday morning last, between 12 and 1
o'clock, two men, named John Crawford and An

minuter, to which they replied, “All right,” and
passed on. Tbe engineer of foe evening express
going west, which leaves Lawton at 12:15, tele
graphed from Niles that the engine had struck a

any one bad started to see about it, two other trains
bed passed over foe road.
They went to foe spot designated by the engineer,
and found foe mangled remains of the two unfor

TWELFTH ILLINOIS CAVALRY 1
Further Particulars of their
; Reception by the Ladies.
Incidents or Field Experience.
Wc yesterday paid a visit to the officers and men
ol the I2th Illinois Regiment at the Armory. Aa
dtir readers know from pr evlous reports, the regi
ment arrived in thl* city on Saturday night, about
11 o’clock, and upon tbe invitation of tbe ladles of
Chicago, represented by the ladles of the Soldiers'
E ome, marched to Bryan Hall, where they partook
ot a sumptuous copper, which had been long In
anticipation by the ladles, who expected the regi
ment to arrive many days before, and who had
literally watched night ond day anxiously until
they did arrive.
THE SECOND BUPPER,
;We desire to gay In Justice to the noble hearted
ladles what the soldiers themselves desired ns to
say, in gratitude to them—that after the first train
containing the officers and men had arrived, and
they had partaken of the hospitalities at Bryan
Hall—a report of which appeared in the Toibukb
yesterday—there was another train containing the
private horses of the regiment, and the men
detailed to take charge of them, which did not
arrive until two o'clock on Sunday morning, and
that these same ladies sat up to receive them,
entertained them with the same generous hospi
tality which had marked their reception of the
regiment itself; and did not leave until they had
famished them and the whole regiment with
breakfast the nert morning.
BRBAKPABT TO THE REGIMENT.
Sunday morning dawned, and found these ladles
stUlat the Hall, though they had labored earnestly
all day Saturday preparing the dinner, and all
through Saturday night In serving their brave and
welcome guests, they felt they had not done half
enough; and although there were many ladles pres
ent, who are well known to possess oil the graces,
‘ and virtues which adonr tbe Christian character,
they did not think that they violated tbe holy Sab
bath day, by dispensing to these brave soldiers the
charities and mercies which God himself had en
joined upon all who reverence Bis name.
gratitude or the sold urns.
We need not say bow cratefol both the officers
and soldiers were for these kind attentions. No
mere outsider, who has not mingled with the boys
In their leisure hours, and conversed with them in
all the freedom of unconventional discourse, can
form the least' Idea of the heart—the stimulus to
forthcr bravery on tbe battle field, and devotion to
their country, with which these friendly and
aL'ectlonatoattentlonsand sympathies, shown to
thun by the ladles of Chicago, bare inspired the
soldiers. .
CONDITION OP TUX REGIMENT.
A e to the soldiers themselves, as we saw them,
on (he occasion in <mestlon,we can say that a finer
body ofmen and officers never bore the flags of
thdr country aloft on thcbattle field. The regi
ment originally consisted of two battalions, num
bering, In all, abont eight hundred men; and now,
alter the many hard strangles in deadly fight, they
number between five and six hundred. '

Tiic result of this fight was that twenty-five of
the rebels were hurled on the field, including
Llcnt. Carroll, of the Maryland battalllon, who,
by-tbe-way, was grandson of Charles Carroll, of
Carrollton, one of the signers of the American
Declaration ol Independence.. * Fifty rebels, with
their borecs and equipments, were taken hack
prisoners to the Federal camp, many of them se

The strangest part of this bistort Is that the 12th
did not lose a man on the field. A number were
wounded, a few of whom'‘subsequently died, and
some of them were disabled for life.

and men engaged, for their bravery on the occa

ADMIRABLE BBATTBr Or A PBZVATB.
An anecdote in connection with the death of
Lieutenant Carroll, which we heard from the lips
of one of the officers, will bo read with the pro
foundest admiration by all who are capable of ap
preciating personal bravery and courage,
and coolness in battle. A private. of
the Twelfth, named Theron Hollenbeck,
of Winnebago county—one of the smallest men in
the regiment, but one of the very best and bravest
—had, during the battle, disarmed two mounted
rebels, and was driving them to the rear, with his
carbine advanced, when tbe rebel officer. Lieu
tenant Carroll, mounted upon & splendid
fiinrg»»rrame dashing by; and seeing how the lit
tle soldier of the 12th was dealing with two of his
own troopers, drew his revolver, and fired at the
little soldier of tbe IStb. Fortunately he missed
his mark and went galloping on. Hut tbe blood of
the little private was up. and he resolved to
to show that pretty sdon of the chivalry—Lieuten
ant Carroll, twhose great hearted grand-father
signed tbe Declaration oftho Independence of tbe
States, which in this war his eon was doing his ut
most to destroy—that he, a private of the. 12th
and the smallest man in it—did neither fear three
rel>els, nor miss his mark when ever his eyes
fleshed down that dreadful carbine which be car
ried. According y. with the utmost cool
ness, whilst tho • mounted chivalry was riding
off on his war horse, he “ drew a bead on him, 1
, fired, and let the chivalry out of him by sending a
bullet clean through his heart. So perished Lieut.
CarrdU—and ao perish, now and forever, all the
enemies of the Republic J , . . ~
This is bnt one out of a great number of similar
anecdotes which we have gathered from the men
vnd is but a sample of the organic bravery of tho
regiment.

ncrUBBS 7BOX THE PULPIT.
On Stmdsy morning last the Rev. Robert Coll,
ycr, pastor of the Unity Church, delivered a nota
ble discourse, from a text not taken from the Bible,
but from three pictures in the Gallery of Art Exhi*
bitlon, which wo are sorry to say, Is now dosed,
forever, against our own citizens and the people
of the West. *
Mr. Collycr is unlike nearly all other clergymen,
andisthoronghiyoriginal,andiDdepcndcnt. "When,
on the occasion in question, he announced that he
had no sermon for his congregation, although he
had tried his beet daring the week to make one,
and nothing but a few odd and detached notes
upon purely secular subjects wherewith to enter*,
tain them, the singularity of the thing, or what
appeared eneb to a stranger, did not appear to dis
turb them in the least, and only prorokod a smile
upon the lips of those old hearers of bis, who were
conversant with his humor. It was very quaint
and carious, however, to hear how he excused
himself for his own want of concentrated thought,
by charging the same upon the heavenly inspira
tions, and the providence of God. He said he
could not understand how it was, that with all his
rvrolntlon, earnestness, and consaentlousnosa. all
ins-beat efforts to prepare a sermon for that Son
day morning, he had co utterly failed. He found
himself draivn away by invisible, omnipotent Influ
ences. from, the plan which he had Intellectually
proposed to himself to discuss, into quite another
region of thought and meditation; and the result
was, a discourse which was no discourse, but rath
er a disjecta membra of three different ports, any
one of which might occupy the wisest mind, and
the most eloquent tongue in its full and complete
elaboration. , , ..
He had, like many thousands of other delighted
visitors, attended the Art Gallery in connection
with the late Northwestern Pair. And, rambling
amongst the fair pictures which adorned the walls,
be bad been profoundly affected by three of these
pictures, all of them different, and distinctively so,
in their character and history. , „ ,
The first of these was Bosslters symbolical rep
resentation of Italy, In the form of a beautiful, but
most sorrowful woman, who sat amidst tho golden
glories of sunset on the broken column of a temple,
amidst the ruins of old Rome. In her eyes was an
unspeakable sadness, and they, in their deep and
passionate depths, seemed to be ruminating upon
the sin, and sorrow, and fallen greatness of the
tone mother of dead Empires, the Nlobe of na
tions I What struck him was that this supremely
sad and beautiful woman was dreaming only of the
past I All that was great and grand m the litera
ture, art, science, and military renown of Rome,
had passed away, were things no longer related to
human life and human hope, but parts of a
completed drama, never more to ho enacted npoa
the theatre of the world. %t ,
• Ho turned from this superb symbolism in the same
Compartment, and directly facing it waa another
figure—the glorious Impersonation of America. A
yellow goldcn-baircd, blue-eyed Saxon girl, with a
sweet sunny free, looking not to the past, with
the tyes of her of Italy, baring no finished history
to mourn over, —no great historical sins save one—
and that not originally her own—to weep over;
but casting her eyes, full of hope and heav
cnly promise, into the far off future,
all her greatness, . and majesty, her
power and sovereignty yet to come, and sure to
come; she yet, in the dawn of her maidenhood, all
glorious and lovely things about and around her,
her lap full of flowers, and •God’s own heavens
smiling upon her and blessing her!
The contrast was very striking 1 Italy, represen
tative of the past, with Us sin and sorrow and
moral confusion—America, representative of the
present, and the highest things of the present,
with that pregnant future before her.
There was yet another picture without which
the moral of the two classic pictures would fall la
its highest features. This was the large, grand,
and masterly sketch by Culture, of the decline ana
fall of the Honan Empire. In this were presented
at once both the grandeur and the crime of Borne.
In a temple of gorgeous architecturgl embellish
ments were congregated the pride of manhood and
womanhood, ml fallen,—tumbled down into
utter ruin, and moral annihilation.
Splendid women and men, were there
sunken Into every form that rice could
assume—their splendor apparent through their
degradation, and not even drunkenness, nor sad
dest debauchery, could utterly efface the linea
ments of it.
Home, from its greatness, had come to that
dreadful wreck, and he read the history of all this
in the eyes of that sweet Magdalene, the Italy of
Boseiter.
Why had Borne thus fallen ? It had lost its hon
or, itaconscience,itamanhood. Thatwastherea
son. And then,, bringing tho matter to its practi
cal bearings upon America, be called upon ail who
heard his voice, npon all Americans everywhere,
who loved their country and did not desire to see
this great Republic brought to a like ruin and des
olation, to bold fast by their integrity, as the gold
en horns on the altar of manhood, and never to
forget that integrity and truth, virtue and religion,
were the only safeguards of the national life.
THE PRICE OF COAL ELSE.
WHERE.
Extortion Practiced on tlic Peo-
ple of Chicago.
[From the N. Y. Tribune, 26th.]
The regular monthly sale of tho Delaware, Lack
awanna and Western Railroad Company took place
yesterday noon, at the offlac of the Company, in
William street, Simeon Draper officiating as auc
tioneer. The attendance was very large, about 160
persons, representing the coal trade In New York
and vicinity, being present. The bidding was not
very spirited, and there was not as much anxiety
to purchase as was manifested last month, when it
was anticipated that the present mouth would
•show a great scarcity in the coal market. The flrst
lot put up was 0,600 tons lump coal, which waa
. started at $7.00 and knocked down at $7.35, the
bn ver contenting himself with only 100 tons. Tho
remainder of the lot was put up, when 2,000 tons
were knocked down at $7.00, 2.600 tons at $0.39,
and 1,200 tons at $0.25. At the late sale of tho
Company, this class of coal brought $7.45®7.55.
2,500 tons of steamboat coal was next put up and
sold for $6.85, a decrease of $1.25 on the last sale.
4,600 tons of grate coal was knocked down at $6.85
&G.GO; price at last sale, $8.60(39.15. 2,500 tons
of «ar coal sold at s3.7s—an advance of 41 cents on
previous prices. This lot was sold in small par
cels, and elicited more competition than of tho
other lots. 4AOO tons of stove coal was started at
$8.76 and tan up quickly to $9.85, at which a small
quantify was taken; the balance waa knocked
down at $9.25. At the October sale this class of
coal brought $9.0039.70 under the hammer. 2,600
tons of chesnnt coal brought $5.70, nu .1 tho re
mainder of the lot, 1,000 tons, $5.66. A large lot
of the same Quality waa knocked down for so.->i
at the last sale. The lots were of 100 tons, with
the privilege of I,ooo—the coal being delivered at
EUzabcthport, from which place it costs CO cents
per ton transportation to this city.
In connection with the decline in tho price of
coal in New York,and in fact all over the East,
and along the Ohio and Mississippi River, it wQI
perbops astonish our readers at a distance to And
tbet the price of coal in Chicago is constantly ad
vancing—at least the enthradte'gtadcs.. This Is
nol owing to a short supply, hut wholly In conse
quence of ft combination which exists among the
owners of the hard coal mines—the Scranton,
Pittston and other Companies—to sell to Chicago
only through one agent. They will sell cargoes of
coal to dealers to go to Milwaukee, Green Bay, or
any other lake port; but no Chicago dealer can 'go
to Buffalo and pordhase a pound of their coal for
love or money. The object of this la that they
may be able to fleece the people of Chicago and
surrounding country out of about $4.00 per ton
more than they would otherwise receive. For in
stance, the agent in Chicago has now tho bare&ced
effrontery to ask of the poor man $12.00 per ton
for bis anthracite coal. The market price for this
same coal daring the season, atßuQalo,has ranged,
we are informed, from $7.00(33.00 per ton, and as
it Is brought here as ballast, and of coarse costing
only about 60c per ton to handle, the companies
alluded to receive three to foot dollars per ton
more than they wonid receive, were other dealers
allowed to go into the market.
It is one of the greatest outrages ever perpetra
ted npon a community, and Its authors ought to be
held up and exhibited as heartless extortioners of
the poor man's earnings.

LOCAL MATTERS.
Academy of the New Gymnastics*
A conversation took place last evening }a the
Gymnastic Hall, lately fitted up In a very superior
style, by the Messrs. Powers of our city, graduates
of Dio Lewis* Normal Institute for Physical Edu
cation at Boston. The Dr. was himself present on
the occasion, and conducted the proceedings,
which were of a very pleasing, social and anima
ted character. The ball is a large, handsome
room, chastely arranged and decorated for gym
nastic pnrposes—and lacking all the usual appli
ances of pullles, ropes, ladders, five hundred
pound weights, Iron dumb hells, and monstrous
dubs. The new system, as taught by tbe Messrs.
Powers, exdodes all these contrivances, and sub
stitutes’the lightest possible gymnastic instru
ments. l Not to develop one or two sets of muscles
In the arms and legs, but all tbe musdea of the
body—this is the object of the new system, which
It most accomplish If the students adhere to the
method.
' It is a delightful feature of It, also, that, that
ladies are allowed to practice with gentlemen—
thus furnishing- a guarantee for morality, as
wen as for grace and beauty. For our own
part, wo would much prefer to Join In the health*
fol and graceful performances, which took place
last erasing In tide hall, participated in as they
were hy-ao many highly respectable ladles and
gentlemen, than Indulge the most airy evolutions
on the light fantastic toe, in the best city drawing'
room. They are exercises in which the merest
novice can tako a part at once, and in which also,
all must be made cheerful and bappy.
Daring the afternoon the hall was visited by
members oftho press,- of the medical faculty by the
clergy, and by members of the Chicago Board of
Education.

Kino on the Condition op Dob Country.
—Rev. W. W. King, formerly pastor of St. Paul’s
Church in this dty, la now in Montana Territory.
We notice a call in the Mountain City Sew % signed
by about thirty citizens requesting him to deliver
a Thanksgiving discourse, to which be makes the
following reply:
Gentlemen : I very cheerfully comply with your
request, as the time and theme selected, meets my
hearty approval. lam glad to avail myself of every
proffered occasion to speak tomy fellow-citizen* of
“ the condition of our country,” of the causes and
cure of the perils that threaten a common inheri
tance. As the platform upon that occasion wilt be
national, not sectarian, 1 seriously hope that other
clergymen will attend and give utterance to free
speech upon a theme of such common Interest.
Truly Yours, W. W. Kcto.
A Card from the managers of the/lur
aery and Half-Orphan Asylum.
The Managers of the Nursery and Half-Orphan
Asylum wish to announce the net proceeds of the
late Fair, the amount bemg the handsome sum of
$1,731. We also present our thanks to tho numer
ous friends who so generously assisted os. To
name oar friends would be impossible, so numer'-
ons have they proved; bnt to the editors, grocers,
confectioners, oyster dealers, fruit dealers, land
lords, Jewelers, merchants, druggists, bakers, pack
ers, and last, bat by no means least, the ladles who
so kindly furnished and sorted oar tables, wa glvo
onr wannest thank*. The amount received la
sufficient to moot onr current expenses for several
months at the present rate of expenditure.
The demand epon oor resources, however. Is
rapidly increasing—no less than, fifteen, most of
them soldiers* children, being refused admittance
within, a week, no possible place being found for
them. Some means of supplying the wants of
tills class of children must be devised. So that It
will readily be seen that the amount, although
large, is none too large for the exigencies of the
MaNAOBttS.
Xhe Tate** Flialanx—3oth minola.
We announced a few days since that Licnt. CoL
O.L, Mann, of the Spth HI. Bqgt, (Yates* Pha
lanx,) ha darrived direct from Charleston, with
orders from Gen. OUlmore to recruit for his regi
ment, the first, it will bo remembered, to plant Its
flag on the formidable bomb-proofa of Fort Wag
ner,
(Col. Mann has received his instructions from
Lieut, Col. Oaks, Superintendent of Recruiting
Service, and opened a recruiting station on the
corner of Madison and Dearborn streets, where he
Is ready to enlist all ahlo bodied men who wish to
link their destiny for three years or the war, with
this gallant and fortunate regiment.
We say fortunate regiment, for It must be con
ceded that there are but few regiments in the ser
vice that have served the noble cause In which
they are engaged more faithfully than has the
and yet they muster hut .little
more than half the maximum strength of a regi
ment.
This is the only regiment Illinois has.
In the Department of the South, and
hence the State, and especially the city
of Chicago has a special interest andpride in it. If
thelrproud flag bearing the portrait of oar patri
otic Governor he the flrst to float over tho
rains of Sumter, or tho embers and ashes' of tho
doomed city of accession, as it did over tho sandy
walla of Fort Wagner, then may Illinois ho doubly
proud that her hardy sons ever followed tho wind'
log war path which led them thither.
Gen. QUlmore, we donbt not, has learned to
appreciate most rally the stylo and stamina of our
Sncxer sons, and hence desires more of tho same
stem stuff.
Col. Maim reports the regiment In tho beet of
health and spirits. Having occupied a prominent
position In the trenches on Moms Island, they are
now resting from more active operations in a beau
tiful camp, surrounded by palms, pines and pal
mettos.
We know ofno regiment in the field that Is more
deserving, nrtoat.ls more Inviting to tho now
recruit, and we therefore especially commend the
Interests of the phalanx to all, and hope that our
patriotic young men will again rally around Us
standard, which Is represented In Cot' Mann,
wbcee energy and ability are so intimately con
nected withthe entire history of the regiment.
MoVickee’s Tjieatek.—Mr, Bondmann
has at last made his appearance In Chicago, where
aH who love the drama here, have longed desired
him to come. .
Much Interest attaches to this gentleman qnito
apart from bis power as-an actor. He is a German
by birth* and began his career at StrecUty*. in the
Court Theater of that city. He subsequently rlal
ted Hew York, and haring played several times In
the German Theater, bis dramatic talents attracted
the attention of the best English critics conversant
with the German language, and ‘they in
duced him to make the very hazardous at.
tempt to - impersonate some of tho tragic
characters of Shakespeare in the. English tongue.
Hr. Eandman was a due English scholar, It Is true,
to commence with, bnt this old not make tho ven
ture any the less'daring. He was, however, full of
ambition and hope, ana after a six weeks exclesive
and careful study of the language, ha came out at
the Winter Gardena, In the. character of Shylock,
and strango to say with tho omat complete success.
Last evening Be represented the character of
N&rclsse, in the tragedy of that name, which is
certainly one of the oddest, and roost fantastic
pieces of literary composition ererput npon paper,
or played on tho boards of a theatre. It is a trans
lation.from the German, and tho author is Hr.
Bmchvogel. There is a great deal of genuine tal
ent In It, especially as shown In the characters of
Narciesc ana Home do Pompadoer, but all the rest,
with Diderot thrown In, are so many mechanical
nondescripts'who talk weak and absurd things,
that Norcisae—who is a mighty smart fellow, affect
ing the character of a fool—may hare a good many
chances to show his wit. Us scorn, his contempt
and his wisdom.
Tbe plot of the play is not well conceived, nor
well contrived, nor well carried oat. It la trans
parent from the beginning of tbe second net, and
we all know the secret from that time forward,
which finally makes the tragedy. This is not want
of dramatic talent, but of constructive talent, and
of the art of concealing tbe mystery of the thing to
be consummated. No one is surprised, therefore,
whenNarcisEomeots tbe doomed woman, his wife,
whose falsehood to him, her husband, has killed
his peace, nor does any one expect anything else
than that ho will surely do the things he does, and
kill her. Narcisse, however, is a character full of
gm:ns, vivacity, wit, and in certain phases
of tremendous power. r;,.m the first
of bis appearance on tbe stage. - became deeply
interested In him, and continued so to the end.
Mr. Sandman has made it a great character, and
bae eoperadded to the author’s idea all the graces
and attractions, the powir and vehemence of bis
own splendid Intellect and histrionic ability.
7he play may be thus told: # ,
Marne. de Pompadour, the heroine, mimed
Narcisse twenty years before she bad won the
heart of Louis aV., and when tbe play begins she
has good reason to hope she will soon be
' Queen. Narcisse is a poor musician, who goes
about Paris, shabby and eccentric. Mime, has
during all these twenty years deserted Xarcette,
and he is wild with his wrongs, and amply re.
venues himself upon society. That she may not
now become Queen, a plot Is contrived, which
brings ont Narcisse, and bo is used for tbe purpose
of confronting his false wife. Ho meets
her in an amateur performance, just be
fore her intended nuptials. with the
King—learns that she Is his wife, and in a storm
and whirlwind of passion, appalling even on the
stage, he kills her, and then dies himself. We
have no space to analyse tbe actio.? more minutely
in this wise. Tbe reader will gather from
what wo have said of the plot
that aQ Is foftf in the second act, which
ISf/onelntheUstact; and yet, in spike of this
H*m<ifrtng fault, each la the wonderful skin of the
actor, that he sustains bis part with perfect Integ
rity tothe emL and we do-not care to remember
the fruit of the author. ....
Mr. Rwndwum will continue to play during the
week, when we hope to render him a complete
ioatlce. AH we can do now Is to welcome him
leartlly to Chicago.
To the Patriotic Wombs' op Chicago.—
Ton are requested to meet each day at the rooms
of the Ladles’ War Committee to sew for the sick
and wounded of our hospitals. As the last two
months have been so occupied with other things,
but few garments have boon made at our rooms;
but a large amount of material la now preparedfor
sewing, the rooms are wanned and ready to recivq
you, and only willing hands are needed to prepare
a gift worthy odr soldiers and ourselves. Let ua
soon have a thousand garments to send: they can
not be a day too soon for tbo need. ■
Those who have aided in past efforts may be
glad to know that we sent to the Sanitary Com
mission on Thanksgiving Day 275 shirts and S&l
other garments, completely stripping the shelves
of our store-room. They most not stay thus bare,
and we depend, as heretofore, on the patriotic wo
men of Chisago to fill them.

PORK PACKING AT CLEVELAND,
[From the Cleveland Herald.} .
The sadden rise sod cxcUcmcntln the h«*s market
has greatly Interfered with the packing bo&lne*» this
week. The high prices demanded for live hogs have
kept most of our large packers entirely ons of the
market, and they have concluded not to slaughter to
any extent till prices aro down to somewhere near •
reasonable figure. Consequently tbe large ahow that
weexpectcdtobe able to report this week as tho
work of our packers U not forth Doming. One or two
of the large establishments slaughtered tho fore part
of the week what lot* they bad on band, but are u>W
out of tfio msfket, discontinued buying for the
present.
; riewcd hop* hare .‘'rrtTcd protty freely darlas the
■week, and bare commenced a ranze of &00C4&.‘25..
