THE TIMES PHILADELPHIA. TUESDAY MORNING. AUGUST 21. 1877. Dm ooos AUGUST PASTIMES.

DEMOCRATIC LEADERS. CALEDONIAN hoe manufacturer, of No. 341 North Second street, with having dismissed from his employ Private William Beck, because tbe latter went with tbe militia to Pittsburg, Mr. Bcuwjneberg says that he notified Beck ten days prior to his departure to look out for another situation, as he con Id not give him work much longer; that Beck went away without giving him notice, and that consequently when Beck returned to the shop to work on the morning following the arrival home of the troops he told him that there was nothing more for him to do in the establishment. BELL PUNCH BEATEKS.

and of the Sixteenth Regiment, but it has not yet received the approval of the Governor, A similar order fulminated against Company I (Hibernia Light Guards), of the same regiment, was approved by Adjutant General Latta almost as soon as it was submitted to him, and yet General Bolton's charge against these companies is the same as that made by him against the Hibernians "insubordination and mutinous conduct." From tbe fact that new recruits are being put in the places of these troops, one company having been mustered in at Pottstown a few days ago, it might be supposed that General Bolton sees his way out of the woods. THE SWAMP ANGEL. I took the money and dragged the body out int the yard and threw it down a well. Bealizing what 1 had done I lied, and after hearing that 5 had been offered for me and 25 for the sergeant as deserters, I shipped for America and landed at New York, I staid there until about Bine weeks ago, when I came over to this city, and I have since wandered about looking for something to do. During all this time I have been haunted day and night by the ghost of the sergeant, making my life one of constant misery, ont of which I can only get by acknowledging my crime and paying the penalty.

So I want to go back to England." After this recital Henderson was locked np and Mr. George Crump, Vice Consul of Great Britain, was consulted. He verified the statement, so far as related to the finding of the body of a sergeant of tbe Eighteenth Hussars in a well, and yesterday morning Magistrate Pole committed tbe self confessed murderer for a further hearing on the 3d of next month, in order that tbe requirements of the extradition treaty may be complied with and he be returned to England. After the prisoner was removed to Moyamen sing a Times reporter visited his cell. Henderson is about 5 feet 9 inches higb, well proportioned, and bears every mark of having been constantly exposed to the sun.

His gray eyes, when not cast down and he does not care to look you iu the face wear an anxious, restless look. Upon being asked if he bad anything else to add to the above statement, which was read to him, he replied: "I havo nothing to say; but I wasn't before any magistrate, I was before the English Consul." "But," said the reporter, "is it all "I don't know; you can publish what you like; the Consul will be here to morrow." Further questioning failed to elicit anything whatever from the prisoner, and the reporter took his departure, rather impressed with the idea that brooding upon this remarkable story had touched the reason of the unfortunate man. NEAKING GOVKKNOKS' WEEK.

AT WORK IS THE IHAMOJTD FIELD. By an faperiment at Centre field the Athletic Lose a Bams The Syracuse Boys Victorious by 8 to 6 Contests in Other Farts of tbe Country. It is very seldom that a club loses a game through the fault of one man, but had the centre field been covered well yesterday the Athletic would undoubtedly have won a ball from the Star, Barber has been playing centre field for the Athletic in a fine style, but be is not very strong at the bat. Manager Sensenderfer thought to improve the chances of the nine by placing Moore, who is a fast base runner, in his place, but tbe change was extremely disastrous. Moore's position is at short stop, and in amateur games he has played brilliantly, but it was certainly a lack of judgment to experiment with him in a new position in a game with such a team as the boys from Syracuse.

Through seven innings the Athletic were ahead and had the game well in hand. They batted McCormick all over the field, while tbe visitors were unable to strike Lomas to any great extent. In the eighth inning the Star made but one base bit, aud yet six runs were scored. Such a state of affairs was inexcusable. Moore made three errors, two muffs and a wild throw, and although others participated in the poor play the loss of the game was principally due to the centre fielder.

Game was called with tho Athletic at the bat. Coons was retired at first, and Keach struck for a base and scored on safe hits by Fisler and Myers. For the Star, Hoteling led off with a base hit, but was left. It was one two three order with the home nine in tbe second inning, butsor tho visitors, after two men were out, Mansell and Carpenter scored. Manscll and Clinton were given first on called balls, while Carpenter made the only two base hit of the game for his side.

Neither club scored in the third, fourth and fifth innings. In the sixth Fisler led off with a base hit. Say then stepped np to the plate aud sent the ball away down between left and centre. He easily made three bases, but as no one was on band to coach him he was caught just as he reached the home plate. Myers popped up a fly, and Clinton distinguished himself by mulling it in a highly graceful manner.

Waitt made a safe hit and Myers scored. Iu the next inning Moore struck for two bases, went to third on a pass ball and scored off Lomas' bit for a bag. The game was now so favorable to the home nine 4 to 2 that the crowd was wild with excitement. When, in the eighth inning, Mansell took tip the bat and sent an easy fly to Moore, which the latter muffed, a prolonged "'oh!" from the nudieuce was the result. This was the opening wedge to a series of poor plays, and at the clo.su of the inning a more disgusted set of ball players than the Athletic are seldom seen.

In the ninth Myers made a splendid two base hit and scored, but it was too late to retrieve ill fortune and the home nine were defeated because of the costly experiment in the centre field. The score follows: ATHLETIC K. B. P. STAB.

It was too much to expect Moore to play an entirely new position without errors. A game was played at Gloucester yesterday afternoon between the Nathan aud Kleiuz clubs, which resulted as follows Nalhau 0 0 1 8 1 0 2 0 2 9 Klein 0 1102000 4 8 The Louisville played in Brooklyn yesterday, and were defeated by the following score: Hartford 1 0 0 1 1 0 1 0 1 5 Louisville 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 At Pittsburg the home nine defeated the St. Louis Browns in eight innings.

Concerning Morrison Rose, who was arrested on Saturday for forgery, which he confessed, and who said that he was dramatic critic of Frank Fathion lixtar, and a correspondent of the Illustrated Figaro, Mr. D. R. Doty writes to The Timks, saying that Rose has no connection whatever with the Uutar, of which Mr. Doty, and not Frank Leslie, is publisher and proprietor.

Rose had a hearing yesterday at the Central Station on the charge of forgery. Alexander Wilson, colored, testified that on Saturday afternoon the defendant came to him, as he was passing Fourth and Markot streets, and offered him fifty cents to go and get cashed a cheek on the Tradesmen's National Bank, on South Third street. As he went to do so he noticed tho defendant following him, and, his suspicions being aroused, on meeting Oiliccr Reiucrt, of tho Fourth district, he showed him the check. The latter, suspecting it was a forgery, went hack with the witness and chased Rose to Third aud Walnut streets, where he arrested him. Special Ollicor Callahan testified that he had evidence that the defendant obtained $000 last May by two forged checks on the Bank of North America, and said that bo could get tho required witnesses in a day or two.

Alderman Carpenter held Rose in 45,000 bail for a further hearing tomorrow, i Verdlcti at the Coroner's. Verdicts in accordance with the following facts were rendered yesterday by the Coroner's jury: Charles Sproll, aged 9, residing at 222(1 Alter street, was accidentally killed by an embankment falling on him last Friday afternoon, in Dntterer's brickyard, at Long lane and Moore street. John A. Stillo, residing at 520 Federal street, was found dead Sunday afternoon iu East Park, near the Reading Railroad. The deceased had been out of bis mind for several years, and bail disappeared about the 4th of August.

There wero no marks of violence on the body, and death was evidently natural, being the result of debility, as the deceased had eaten nothing for some time and was much emaciated. Samuel Buchauan was found dead Saturday morning at the Almshouse. Dr. J. M.

Maury discovered, on making a post mortem examination, that the cause of death was fatty degeneration of the heart. William Kmnltz poisoned himself last Friday at his residence, UU North Front street, by taking opium. John Diffenduffer, residing at 3214 Lancaster avenue, was accidentally run over Thursday night by a train backing tip to the Pennsylvania Railroad depot, Thirty second and Markot streets, and died Friday morning from his injuries at the University Hospital.

A Young Englishman Surrender Himself as the Murderer of a Fellow 8olilivr. When the dripping dead body of the Sergeant of Troop Eighteenth Hussars, in tho service of Her MnjcBty, tho Queen of England, was recovered from a well near Colchester, England, during the early part of the present year, it was at once supposed that be hud either committed suicide or while attempting to desert bad accidentally fallen in. This theory seems to havo been accepted as tho true one up to the present time. Iteinorso, coupled with abject poverty, however, seems to have been tho agency which has compelled the perpetrator of a foul murder to deliver himself into the hands of the law thousands of miles from where the deed was committed. Uu Friday night last a young Englishman pre scuted himself at the Sixth police district station and expressed a desire to be taken into custody, saying that ho was a murderer.

A little incredulous at first, the sergeant in charge filially concluded to listen to tiio story, anil it was given as follows My name is John Henderson. I am 23 years of ago and a soldier of the English army, attached to Troop Eighteenth Hussars, commanded by Major General 81 T. W. McMahan. One day, in Jautiary last, when wo wero stationed at Colchester, England, Sergeant Wheeler, of tbe troop, and I started out on a drinking bout, and when we reached the rendezvous we were quite drunk.

Tho sergeant showed me 1(1, which being mure than I had myself, made me mad, and in my frenzy I struck him over the head several times with a carbine, killing him almost ATHLETIC SCOTS AT SCHUBTZEN. At Most Iatarttting 6ans a th Asiali of ih Clik Witnessed by an Immense Audience Distinguished Men Who Participated in Highland Costume. Gay with bonnet and plume and kilt and fierce nnder broadsword and dirk, the Scotchmen of Philadelphia went out to Schuetzen Park yesterday and there celebrated the nineteenth grand annual gathering of the Caledonian Club. Contesting athletes came down from the North as welcome guests, and frieudly clans in New York, Brooklyn, Baltimore and Seranton. were represented by picked gillies of the ring.

The laborious sport was kept up uninterruptedly for eight hours, but before many of the one hundred participants in the games and their six thousand spectators forsook the heath on the Schuylkill lamplight caught them still dancing to the piper, and the moon was called upon to show them the way out from the trees of the park. Fergus Maulvor, oh where be ye laddie?" was hummed and whistled throughout the day. The festivities were unequalled in the annals of the club. At 8 o'clock in the morning the members assembled in the Caledonian House, Pine street, above Second, and thero was not a laggard, when, after donning their lull costume, they marched up Walnut street to Eleventh, thence to Chost not, to Fifth, to Arch, to Eighth and at 9 o'clock to the Reading depot, Ninth and Greon streets. The pipers of the club headed the procession, and shrilly did they lead the way.

After the short ride to the park grounds, and a brief examination of the ring, the games began. They were twenty one in number, all prize contests, towards which over S500 had been voted. The arena was a large circular grass plot, 'doubly wired so as to form a course for the foot races on the skirts and leave the middle for danciug, leaping, jumping and throwing. A large pole with a movable placard at the top, to show the programme in tho primitive way. stood in the enclosure.

There was a small platform for the dancers car by and various gymnastic implements were scattered around. The judges were mostly retired athletes and canny Scots whose plaid had faded from age. Colonel A. A. Stephenson, of Montreal, Canada; W.

F. Head, of Baltimore; Professor Geo. Goldie, of Princeton College, and Alexander R. Gunn, William R. Smith, George Bart nun, William Litch, John Shedden and j.

M. Halkett, of this city, were the men whose word there was no gainsaying. As soon as the club chronometer marked 10 o'clock the bag pijier struck np, strippod athletes walked into the ring and the hardy games were opened. Putting the light stone as far away from one's right band as possible was the first thing to be done. THROWING THE STONE.

Seven stalwart young Scots, attired as thinly as young fellows might be, seeing that mothers, inters anil sweethearts pressed hard against the ropes around, fifty feet away, entered the list. There were three trials for each man. E. W. Johnstone, a tall young Scotch Canadian, of Hamilton, Ontario, threw the stone 40 feet and 6 inches in his best heat, and took the first prize of "12.

The second prize of f8 was won by William Robertson, of New York, and the third of $5 by John Ronnie, also of New York. Muscular arms are not always above supple and far reaching legs, hut the same tall Canadian, Johnstone, secured the H2 prize in the standing jump trials, between five contestants, that followed. He made 10 feet 9 inches of ground glide under hiui, and received the hearty applause of the crowd. The same Robertson came in for the third prize of in a jump of 9 feet 9 inches, the second of S8 being taken by a Philadelphia laddie, John Shullield, in a 10 feet and one quarter of an inch leap. Twenty one pounds of iron, with a long ashen handle, were then brought out for the "throwing of the heavy hammer." There were six entries and three trials, the last regulation holding in all the games.

The three prizes were of the same value as in the preceding contests. E. C. Ross, another Canadian athlete, hurled the hammer 89 feet and 3 inches. He had grown strong on the La Crosse field.

Ronnie threw 88 feet 11 inches, and Robertson 87 feet 6 inches. Johnstone tried but could not twirl the ash. Kobertson cast the "heavy stone," twenty one pounds in weight, 34 feet 6 inches and took tho first prize, with Johnstone as second at 33 feet 7 inches, and Ross third at 31 feet 5 inches. This heavy work was followed by a foot race of one hundred and fifty yards between twelve lithe lads in tights. John C'rossley.

of Philadelphia, made the best time; John Career, a lank darkey, came in second, and A. C. Eeid, of Hamilton, Ontario, third. Prizes of 12, $8 and $5 wero awarded. Tears chased each other down the nose of a kilted Scot, who rolled in the ecstacy of laughter as he watched the darkey boy outrunning his own lads.

As a further relief from such exhaustive sport there was a short race botween eleven boys, all under eleven years of age. Littlo Louis Slemple got $6 for being the most fleet footed of the party; George Geiker took ii, and Edward Campbell the ouly member of tho clan Campbell in the field the third prize of U2. In the light hammer throwing there was some wild strength put out. Young Ross seized the thing of sixteen pounds and hurled it 110 feet 8 inches away. Rennie came in for the second prize by a throw of 100 feet 2 inches and Robertson for the third by 99 feet 10 inches.

THE BROADSWORD DANCE. When the eighth exercise was run np on the bulletin the throng of spectators stirred anxiously and surged against the ropes. Knots of men nnder the troes, with empty lager mugs before them, broke up; groups of women around the hobby horses dispersed; dancing parties in the pavilion, a short distance away, interrupted the orchestra, and all crowded up to see the broadsword dance in costume. James Jloir, a Scran ton lad of thirty or thereabout, was the first to step on the platform. As James Dickson, the noted piper of the modern clan, who has wandered the world over, struck up the quick time, Moir began to tread daintily between the sharp broadswords, placed crosswise, with hilts out.

His danco was greeted with a great clapping of bands. John West, of New York, next tried the step, and be did it successfully, brooch and medal glittering in the sun, which was growing hot and pitiless overhead. Then np 6tepied L. D. Kobertson, of New York, editor ol the ScnU hman, and a man whose beard is grey.

He made an obeisance right and left, cast one hand curving np and tripped quickly between the blades. His feet seemed as light as the feather in his cap, and his tartan swayed with line motions of body. Next James Kennedy, of the Brooklyn Club, tried the swods. One could see that he was a poetical fellow and full of Burns, Scott and Allan Ramsay from the nimblcncss and grace of his step. "He is one of the Galaxy's poets," said one of the judges, as they gave him the first prize, Mr.

Robertson the second, and Mr. Moir the third. Prof. Goldie, who is at the head of the Princeton College gymnasium, and a practical athlete of wide notoriety, stood by the bars and fixed the latch for the "Running High Leiip." This was fun. Johnstone leaped 5 feet 6 inches into the air and took 12 more; Robert sou and West tied at 5 feet 5 inches.

Alexander Donaldson, of this city, won the first prize iu the hitch and kick contest, Johnstone and Read being tied. In tbe running hop, step and jump, Johnstone made 42 feet, Shullield 41 feet 9 inches, and Donaldson 39 feet. The tossing of the caber was a game of power. The caber is a log that weighs 125 pounds, and Johnstone tossed it 37 feet lui inches, Row 36 feet 101 inches and Koliertson 35 feet and three quarters of an inch. A.

M. Allen took the first prize of $15 in the one mile race; time, 4 minutes 33 4 5 seconds; William Nikcrson second, J0, and James Freeman third, 5. Robertson vaulted 9 feet 6 in cbet with the pole, Donaldson 9 foct 2 inches, and C'rossley 8 feet II inches, hiking the prizes in order. An amusing sack race over an 18 inch hurdle Was won by C'rossley. After the standing high leap, the best contest of the day, in which John atone crossed the latch at a height of 4 feet 11 inches, Read 4 feet 6 inches aud Rennie 4 feet 6 inches, prizes corresponding, came the Highland fling, which was danced by the broadsword steppers, with one addition.

This last was no other than the bagpiper Dickson, He Is a magnificent Highlander, tall, brawny and handsome. Once, in lWtiH, he danced and played before tho Prince of Wales at Adelaide, Australia, and the Prince presented him with a pipe. This tame instrument was used by him yesterday. He danced well, with fine swaying of the shoulders, hut Kennedy was pronounced the best, Moir next and Robertson third. Lewis Hu mplel won the boy's hurdle race and received enough money to keep him in candies for a year, and Read the men's hurdle, taking the Jlii prise.

The twenty first contest, that of bagpipe playing, did not cmno off as the uu was nearly down, though the strength of the contestants did not fag nor tho interest of the iwctators tire. Outside tho ring Robert Miller won the quoit contest. Perfect order was kept during tho day, and the Caledonians talked pleasantly coining In tho cars, of their great success, large attendance and enjoyable games. A few, "foil and unco' happy" long before dusk, rolled in the grass with untroubled dreams, though not one of the lager strieked folks wore a kilt and girdle or could pluck a dagger from bis sock. Why a Returned Soldier was Discharged.

In answor to tho raomhers of Company Third Regiment, who, through Tub Timks, charged Mr. Curiitiau Schwaucbcrg, boot and Conductors to Answer For Alleged Conspiracy to Defraud a Railway Company. Police Magistrate R. R. Smith's office on Seventh street, below Chestnut, held a motly crowd yesterday afternoon, gathered to listen to the postponed hearing of James Steel, Samnel Finley and Charles Clouse, who were charged by John F.

Courtney, the agent of the Bell Pnnch Company, "with a conspiracy to cheat and defraud tbe Hestonville, Mantua aud Fairmount Railway Company of various sums of money." After the defendants were called G. Rhodes, a conductor on the above named road, took the stand, and testified that, acting under tbe instructions and authority of Superintendent Haines, on Thursday, August 9, he received an overture from Steel, whom he knew from being formerly a conductor, aud gave him his punch at the Centennial grounds. Steel took it to the Transcontinental Hotel, and when he brought it back said: "I have set it back 32. I gave him $2 and promised bim S3 more. On the next day, Friday, he met mo at the Exchange and took the punch into Binder's, fixed it and I gave him fifty cents.

On Saturday I met him again at the Exchange, but he could not fix the punch, and he said: 'Give me a ticket and I will ride out Market street and meet you at the I gave him one, but on the road out 1 stopped at the depot and told Mr. Haines about the matter and I was held back two cars, so that when I got out there he had no time to fix it. He went down with me to the Exchange and I gave him thirty five cents. On Sunday I was otf and on Monday he took my punch into Binder's. When he returned I handed him $1, in the presence of an officer, and he was arrested.

He told me that there was 'a lot of tho boys working the naming Finley among them. My salary was not increased for playing stool pigeon, and there has been no inducement offered to me, only Mr. Haines told me that if I investigated this thing faithfully I should be promoted. I wanted to be honest." John F. Courtney, agent for the Bell Punch Company, being sworn, said that he was present at the search of the defendants at the station house, Fifteenth and Locust, and that in Finiey's pocketbook was found a memorandum of the combination of the punch about that date and a quantity of loose tickets.

The cards were offered in evidence, and on them were the letters R. H. E. E. A.

TJ. S. and D. E. L.

H. Mr. Courtney, continuing, said that the register could only be set back by 32s, such as 32, 64, 96, aud that it was impossible to set it back at any intermediate point. In Clouse's book was found a memorandum of they were not there now. He had possession of his book since his arrest.

Lewis C. Cassidy, stated that the prosecution had a number of witnesses, but would rest their caso. The other counsel urged with vehemence that there was not a tittle of evidence against their clients. Magistrate Smith thought differently, and called for the full amount of bail, ifSOO, for appearance at the next term of court. RIOTERS IN COURT.

Five of Them from Kiiston on Trial Charged Willi Obstructing the Mails. Judge Cadwaladcr opened the August term of the United States District Court yesterday. George W. Hazol, Andrew J. Squibbs and Gus tavus Bernhardt were arraigned for violating the revenue laws, and John Duffy, alias Williams, Charles H.

Lewis, Patrick Markey, alias William H. Smith, and Charles F. George pleaded not guilty to indictments charging them with dealing in counterfeit monoy. William Phalan, Henry Wendell, Edward Clark, Thomas Moser and Alexander Brown were arraigned for obstructing the United State's mails. They are the batch of strikers who were arrested at Easton and sent to this city a short time ago, charged with interfering with the passage of railroad trains carrying the mails.

As most of them had been confined in prison since their arrival, and being iu a strange city, they had not engaged counsel. Judge Cadwaladcr consequently assigned Rufus E. Shaplcy, Charles B. McMichael aud Charles Gibbous, to defend them. Mr.

Shapley, after conversing with the prisoners a few moments, asked tiie Court to excuse him on the ground that he had been consulted in the matter by the railroad company, and he would be under embarrassing eircuuislauces should he conduct the prisoners' case. The Judge excused Mr. Shaplcy at once and told the defendants that he would confer with them to day aud assign them other counsel in addition to Messrs. Gibbons and McMichael. They will probably be placed on trial before the end of the week.

KILLED OX THE HIGH SEAS. Trial of Stephen linrrell for the Fatal Stabbing of Juines Jones in Self Defense. Stephen Burrell, the colored seaman of the schooner A. Heaton, who was brought into this port in irons, charged with killing ou the high seas James Jones, chief mate of that vessel, was p'aced ou trial before Judge Cadwalader, in the United States Court, yesterday. From the testimony it appears that the mate Burrell with a slung shot over the eye on account of some alleged insubordination.

Burrell drew his sheath knife and told the mate that he would use it if necessary. Jones then got a revolver and fired at the sailor. Burrell, pursued by Jones and the second mate, named Sullivan, ran into the captain's cabin, thence he made his way to the deck, still followed by the two men, Jones occasionally firing a shot at him. Finally, Burrell made a lunge with his knife at the chief mate, whom he stabbed to tho heart and killed almost instantly. No evidence was offered iu behalf of the prisoner, his counsel arguing that the deed was done in self defense.

When tho court adjourned tho jury had retired and a sealed verdict will be returned this morning. Murphy's Movements. Francis Murphy spent the day at Ocean Grove yesterday in company with Mr. John L. Linton.

Next week he will be the guest of Mr.

Samuel P. Godwin, at Scbooley Mountain, New Jersey. Mr. Kneass is a Candidate. I am still a candidate for the Republican nomination for District Attorney," said Christian Kneass, yesterday to a Times reporter, "and will bo to the end.

The Proposed Reception of the Visitors by Trade and Professional Organizations. A majority of the Goernors of the States and Territories have accepted the invitation extended to them by representatives of the industrial interests of Philadelphia, and given notice of their intention to be present hero on the 28th, 29th and 30th of this month, for the purpose of visiting the International Exhibition and the principal manufactories and becoming more familiar with the general condition of Philadelphia. The main attraction for the distinguished visitors is the Exhibition, aud, its interests being those of the entire business community, it is expected that the various trades organizations and business men generally will make the best use of the few days remaining, aud if they have not already done so, appoint committees to represent them in extending to the Governors a hearty welcome. Col. Peyton, of Haddonfield, N.

who first conceived this project, communicated with or visited most of the Governors for the purpose of insuring its success, aud superintending all arrangements for the occasion, says that in addition to the business men and their employes, tho professional and other organizations should also join in tho effort to render the proposed reception an honor to Philadelphia as well as to those whom she is expected to honor. Mr. Greene, manager of the Exhibition, has canvassers engaged in arranging with manufacturers for participation by their employes, as organized bodies, in the great industrial parade which is to beheld in the Main Building during the visit of the Governors to the Exhibition. The Mayor on Governors' lay. Mayor Stoklcy has issued the annexed advisory proclamation relating to Governors' Day and the attendant ceremonies Mayor's Office of the City of Philadelphia, August ao, lb77.

Whereas the Governors from every part of the country will be present this city during the last week iu August, iu response to an invitation from the exhinitors of the International Exhibition, aud important feature in the exercises will be au "Industrial review," to mclnne the employes of the manufactories oi Philadelphia, at tbe Exhibition Building, Aueiit3o. As Philadelphia justly claims to be Uie leading manufacturing city of ihe United States, and that its trade relations extend not only lo every State in the Union nut to all foreign countries, it is deemed highly important that the manulaeturers shall recognize tbe courtesy oflthis vi it from ihe Executives by a general participation on the occasion mentioned. There ore William S. btokley. Mayor of the city of Philadelphia, do request the closing of all inmiuiae luring etlablishmeiiui and that the cilizeus display flags and patriotic devices, and generally participate iu the ceremonies of Thursday, August 30, 1877.

William 8. Stokley, Mayor. Pickings atJJie Show. To morrow evening's concert will inaugurate the new departure iu the special amusements of the show. Tbe soloists, Seuorlta Isadora Martinez, soprano, and Mr.

L. G. Gottshalk, baritone, are both of the Strakosch Italian Opera Company, and artists of ability, while Mr. Geo. A.

Cotily, basso, is too well known here to require mention. This concert will be followed by others of an equally high order of merit. Some of the most celebrated musical artists have been engaged. On Wednesday, August 29, which occurs in Governors' week, there will be a grand floral display. Four hundred dollars will be given in premiums.

There will be an exciting competition, and the display of flowers will excel any previous exhibition of the kind. Everything promises well for the peach and melon display on the 4th, 5th and 6th of September. Canvassers throughout Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, Delaware and Maryland report that the growers are taking great interest in the matter and preparing to be well represented. The melon raisers of New Jersey have signified their intention of sending some of the finest specimens of their productions. The Canadian educational display, which received such marked attend from the public at tho Centennial, is to be repeated in the permanent show, and fifteen large rases of educational works, apparatus and appliances are now on their way from Ontario.

There is also another educational consignment coming from Kussia to the Exhibition. Ministers' Protest Against Sunday Opening. At the meeting of the clergy of the Methodist Episcopal Church, held at No. 1018 Arch street, yesterday morning, Rev. C.

F. Turner, from the committee on the Sabbath, submitted a series of resolutions strongly condemning the action of Presideut Morton iu openiug the Permanent Exhibition ou Sunday. After considerable speaking, all in favor of the resolutions, a motion to recommit the whole matter to the coiuniitteo was defeated, aud the following substitute was adopted He Dived, That we desire to place upon record and publish our most earnest aud emphatic protest against the recent actiou of the managers of the Permanent Exhibition in opening tbe Exhibition on the Lord's day, believing, as we do. that such action is in violation ol the law of God, ihe law of this Commonwealth, and detrimental to the iuterusu of sound morality and religion. Death of Thomas Taaker, Jr.
