Ub?ry Association. _ pg-Sercn Mile Race at Midnight.?A race off late nigltt before Inst, or rather early tjU")' mor"'"S' which lhrou8h,y tested the ' i and endurance of two of our best livery ? ? Tiie road selected was the National pTTclvrcen the McLiire House in this city and . 'son's cottage, in Triadelphia. The purse - (jr fifty dollars. The horses trotted off slow 1"at W *ncl bcSan t0 raake time only when ,ter "K #scen<*'no thc liro.;v lhe hill above Ae city. Quite a numl)er of horseman prece J and followed the two fast animals in order B rimes* the race, and although the night was ?dirk as to render driving anything but safe, ihe rosd WJS a''vc w'1^ exc'tt;d horse fanciers in vehicles and on horseback. The judges Knt ahead to see how the race terminated were jwruten before they got half way to Triadel , ? jjuch a clattering of hoofs and rumbling if vehicles was never before heard along the old pike. Lights shot up in the wayside houses, ??me don dill bark, the children screamed. Up lie* *be window's all, in!Vverj soul cried out-well done,1 .ii loud as he could bawl. ? The distance was accomplished in the short .paCe of 31 minutes, though it is said the hor ses were not kept down to an honest trot. The see resulted in a victory for a favorite roan horse, whose excellent bottom is only equalled by thai of his competitor. 0"Infanticide.?A horrible case of infanti le came to light in our neighboring village of Jit Pleasant, Ohio, a day or two since. The acts of the case are about as follows : A negro roinan was employed to do the domestic affairs if a family in the country beyond Mt. Pleasant. I few weeks ago the lady of the house sup io?eil, from the appearance of thc woman, that he was cnciente, and therefore discharged her. Hie negro woman then went to Mt. Pleasant n-J -.topped with her brother-in-law. The catter was quieted by those wtio knew it, until few days since some boys were fishing in an !il well for floating sticks, chips, &c., when the }Jy of a child was drawn up, with its throat n from car to ear and its arms severed quite i its body. The coroner'summoned a jury, hese verdict was, that "the deceased came to i death by having its throat cut and its arms tiered quite from its body, by a person or per >ns unkiiowu." The colored woman was nr~ signed, but as nothing definite could be proven, se was released. Slid Accident.?On Sunday last, a child Mr. John Muldoon's aged about four years, hilst playing on the Commons near the Pork iouse in East Wheeling, was kicked in the face y a big footed, rough shod, cart horse, that us grazing in the vicinity. The track of the arse's shoe was stamped in the child's cheek i"vi forehead, exposing in a most frightful man j ncr,ilie left cheek bone and the skull of the fort&eid above the left eye. The outer layer of the skull bone was broken, immediately above the iir.er corner of the eye. The child, for a we, was thought to be killed, it giving no sjasof life till after it was carried to its home Mr Seventh street. Dr. Hupp was called in i treated the wound. The recovery of the :ol is still thought doubtful. TSTThe Martinsville Union School coin Kneed its Fall session on Monday. During ? vacation in the summer months the building )l its surroundings were thoroughly and bcau ?illy painted. Of the teachers this term we stay naught, but that they come recommend" ;tlie highest authority in the Slata as "being ojng the best." Principal, Charles R. Shreve. lacherin 5th department, Mrs. Shreve; teacher -ith department, Miss Mary A. Coffin; teacher 23rd department, Miss 13. Thacher; teacher in >1 department, Miss Sallie Johnson; teacher in >t department, Miss Rosa King. The Camp Meeting on Castleman's Run( t?r lietlinny, is yet in progress. That anciunt ice of worship has rarely been visited by a ?Jer cr more orderly crowd than was gathered ?rc on Sunday last. It was a beautiful day, j ri tiio teinperaturo was just pleasantly cool. Mr. Holmes, of Washington, Pa., preached 11 o'cluck in thc forenoon. His sermon did j ai strike us as being up to the demands of the occasion, nor yet as equal to the standard of his ?>ore youthful efforts. J* encampment will break up to-day, wc The Immense Clothing Bazar, of Thos. 'oglies, on the corner of Water and Monroe "rce,s, 's now filled for the season, inviting the 15Pection of the public. Tbo cassitners, ves a?s. ami coatings, for elegance, beauty, vari ? an(i even gorgeou.snes?, we have never seen Celled in this city. These goods will be rnan ?icttircd to order with the admirable taste and "<h of the manufacturing department of the >ase, and the design is to please nil the varia ? no!'?ns of dress. Look over Mr. Hughes' "ertisernents in another column. W~Sid Accident?Child Killed.?An ac * ent happened at Ritchietown yesterday, 'icli resulted in the death of a little son of *''rS? Hi", plasterer. The child, a little boy, ree years of age, was playing with some other ?'l'licn near a new building, when a lot of 1 "her was accidentally precipitated from above, v-ing npon its head and killing it almost in v^tlv Several of the other children were ,rt>y badly bruised, but none seriously. Accident.?A little girl named Henneky, EaTc" a high fence, on Monday evening, in > heeling and was seriously injured. fc$gT" Grand Vocal and Instrumental Rehear, sal.?The musicians interested in the grand con cert which is to come off on the 14th, had a rehearsal nt Washington Hall last evening. The few who were favored with inside tickets were enthusiastic in their praise of the perform ers, though of course no opinion can be formed from a simple rehearsal, of what the entertain ment will be when it takes place before the' public. The curbstone was pretty well patron ized last night by pedestrians attracted by the m.lodious music within, and " Right hard It was for wight which did it hear. To rede what manner of intulc that might be, For all that pleasing Is to living ear,. Waa there consorted In one harmony." The programme of the proposed concert is lengthy, varied and welt chosen, nnd we antici pate one of the finest as well as one of the most stupendous musical entertainments of the sea son. f3ff~Sleubcnville and Indiana Railroad pas sed into the hands of a Receiver.?Wo under stand that the Steubenville and Indiana Kail road, passed into the hands of a receiver, (the former President, Thomas L. Jewett,) appointed by Judge Bostwick, Cadiz, Ohio, Friday last, the 2nd inst. The transfer by those who un derstand the conditions, is said to be the best that could be made for all parties under the circumstances. Singular Accident.?Mr. Joseph Ir win, of this city, met with a singular accident at St. Louis, one day last week. He wnssittjng in a third story window of a house, when falling asleep ho tumbled out and lodged upon an awn ing below and rolled down upon the pavement. He was pretty seriously hurt, but has now al most entirely recovered. Federal Court.?The court met at 3 o'clock, empannelled a grand jury, and adjourn ed till this morning at 10. Three citizens were made and John D. Nichols and Augustus Cresap, were admitted to practitice in this Court. ' f-&~The weather, yesterday, was all that could be desired?just that sort of weather in which the air is below the perspiration point, and mosquitoes too chilled to nibble exposed sui faces.

Washington, Sept. 8.?There is no truth in the recent statement fiotn Vera Cruz, that Min ister McLnnejha'd presented an ultimatum and demanded the. immediate ratification of a treaty, for it is known here that his preliminary points thereof, were mutually satisfactory to hoth this government- and.that of the constitutionalists^ It was also understood that if the treaty should be ratified on this basis, McLane himself, would return it to Washington. The main points probably, are the right of way across the North ern States of Mexico from the Rio Grande to Mazatlan, and .from Arizona to Gunyuias, or some other outlet on the Gulf of California; tho U. S. to have the privilege of transporting troops and munitions of war over these routes and protect the latter in case of Mexico's ina bility to do so. - In consideration of these grants the United States to pay four million dnllais, one half to be appropriated for the satisfaction of claims of American citizens against Mexico. Gen. Harney has acquainted Gen'l Scott with all the circumstances attending his occupation of the Island of San Juan, it appears he had not been previously specifically instructed to take possession, but sent troops thither to pro tect the 25 or 30 Americans residing there who had been included in the taxation limits by the authorities of Washington Territory. Pittsburgh, Sept. 6.?Senator Douglas ar rived last night at 12 o'clock.

To-day large numbers testified their respect by visiting him. This evening an immense concourse assembled in the street opposite the hotel, .where he addressed them in a masterly specch of an hour's dura tion, frequently eliciting most enthusiastic plau dits.
