Some of the men about the Long Bridge, yester- day, — an immense eel from the channel. His eelship, with a Ghoulish taste unparalleled was attracted by a hook baited with a piece of dead brother eel. He was nearly five feet long, and was not a when hauled in; vf uired several hard raps upon the head with a hatchet to lay him out. Arrived at Galt & Young’s wharf schr. Emu- lus, Capt. Thompson, from Philadel hia, with 87 tons coal for T. Drury; at same w rf, sehr. Wave, Capt. Jenkins, from Havre de Grace, with 82 tons coal for C. M. Lap At Riley’s wharf, schr. Wm. Severe, from Port Walthal, with 140 tons of coal for the Gas Company; schr Convey- ance, from Philadelphia. with $2 tons of coal for W. H. Burr; schr. Geo. R. Scott, from Point Lookout, with a large lot of fish, consisting of protean and bay mackerel, for the Washington mar! Last spring the white coal-heavers about the wharves entered into a combination to monopvu- lize the coal-heaving from the vessels. ‘They as- serted that they could do more and stand the work better than the colored men. They were accord- ingly employed by the various captains of the vessels arriving atthe Washington docks. The ‘warm weather which has prevailed for the last month has caused them to change their tune. They find that heavy work in the hold of a coal vessel, with the thermometer up to 98° is not to be endured, and they have accordingly “caved in,” and the darkies are employed as of old to unload the coal vessels. Arrived at Magruder & Stonc’s wharf, schr. Thos. Parker, Capt. Cook, Havre de Grace, 110 coal to Magruder & Stone; schr. Farewell, from Choptank, with hickory wood to same; canal- boat May Flower, trom Cumberland, with 118 tons coal to Capt. Mitchel!, of steamer Maryland. The steamer Columbia went to Georgetown this morning for freight to Baltimore, embracing flour, grain, &c. The vessel which was Ay phase off Maryland Point is supposed to be the barque Wm. ase, of Dodge’s line of packets. She arrived at George- town with a cargo of sugar from Porto Rico, and finding the market wel! supplied she was not dis- charged, but cleared again for Cowes. ‘The Montgomery Guards excursion, which came off yesterday at the White House, was uni- versally voted a good ‘un. Good conduct and good humor prevailed throughout the day, and the enjoyment was universal. AcciDENT To WasuinxGTonians.—On Satuar- day a stage coach, in which was Mr. William A. Bradley and family of this city, was overturned on the mountain side, about half a mile from the Capon Springs, and Mr. Bradley had his arm broken near the articulation of the shoulder. Miss Bradley, his daughter, had her hand severely bru! » the weight of the loaded coach resting upon it until the gentlemen in attendance were able to lift it off. Mrs. Bradley esca; with a few slight contusions. Mrs. Fitzhugh, of Fair- fax county, had her collar-bone broken; the frac- ture is, however, not considered more than a sim- pis fracture, and Mrs. F is thought by her med- cal attendants to be out of all danger. Miss Worthington, of Washington, was injured about the head, but is doing well, and nothing serious in her case is apprehended. A servant of Mrs. a may oy was jarred and bruised. Mr. G. Newton, of Alexandria, was on the staxe a few mimutes previous to the accident, but, it being heavily laden, he had dismounted, and taken a piece upon awegon. The ball that was to have taken place at the Springs that evening Was postponed on account of the accident. According to the statement of the driver, the coupling-bolt was jolted out of place in crossing a water-course, and, pacity a the forward axle-tree, rested there until the bend was nearly passed. The turn, although difficult, is similar to many uj rp aren mountain roads, and has been at all hours of the night, and in every sort of weather, heretofore, in safety. It is by no means easy to descend slowly, and it is generally conceded, by good drivers, that a moderate rate of speed is least Liable to casualties. The driver Was uninjured, and kept the reins and stopped his horses within a short distance of the place of accident. ‘The relatives of Mr. Bradley left Washington this morning for the Capon Springs. Centre Markxet.—The market opened this morning with a plentiful supply of provisions in every branch. The attendance was quite as full as usual at this season, and sales brisk.

The witnesses against her were a number of little boys, who swore that they were inthe habit of going to this woman’s house, ‘‘ Sundays and any times,” and taking their regular drinks, for which they paid two centsaylass. To the question ‘‘ When did you begin to get your liquor there ?”’ the younger wit- ness, a boy between nine and ten years of age, replied : “One Cree ioe! time ago. Billy Timms said to my brother. (abouteleven years of age,) sbi ae he i where we can get some whisky.’ Henry said ‘where?’ Billy Timms said ‘ Right down here ;’ and we went there and took drinks. { got a twocent glass; and we have been getting drinks there every day since that.” The intelligence, as well as the ey oe of the boys, attracted the sympathies of those present, and excited their indignation against those who would put liquid poisonintheir mouths. Justice Donn iinposed on the accused a fine of $20 and costs. Tne AMERICAN Sus-Marine Company at SesastoroL.—Some of the members of Colonel Gowan’s party from Philadelphia, who went out under contract with the Russian Government to raise the sunken vessels of war at Sebastopol, have relatives in this city, and to the kindness of one of these we are indebted for the following extract from a letter giving some items of news in relation to the party: * Adaline got H letter from hapa! | Ss. They have commenced the work, a has de- clined being one of the divers. They celebrated the 4th of July at Sel 1. The Russians came in their military dress and ditferent insignia. Finding that a private, without any official or honorary badge, was quite a nobody among them, Henry, who does not relish being second any- where, left before the celebration was over.’’ A B’noy on tue Box.—Last night, a young man alittle intoxicated went to the hack stand near Browns’ Hotel and tried to engage a coach. The drivers being unwilling to risk the ment after the job wen accomplished a pre- payment. The young man could not pay up,aod 80 failed to engage a team; bgt nn. | lown the stand, he came a carriage without a driver. Piiated the’ conch and horecs to his wre,” the riated the coac! iver went in search of bis coach, but up toa late hour failed to hear tidings of it.

Parant Orricy Extansion.—The subd-base Ment of the north front is going up with de- spatch. This story of the north front, it is ex- Pected, will be carried up and closed by the end Of the present working season. The work is be- ing most substantially executed. The portico of the west wing is nearly finished and looks a model of marble architecture. The Portico are laid, and the |, Which are to be of , are on the ground all ready to be set. is part of the work is about to be commenced, and will soon thereafter be completed. The beautifal Foe stairway in the rear of the west wing, is now leted and attracts much attention. This is said to be, by far, the gee giesp bce late piece of stonework in any of our public Idings, and is entirely new in style. The whole of the granite, stone and wood work the Patent Office building reflects high credit on the fidelity and taste with which the Messrs. Berry & Mohun, contractors for that por- tion of it, have thus far executed their trust. ‘The old Patent Office building is in course of renovation, by being newly [sopra and papered. The painting is being done Fitch, and the papering by S. P. Franklin, both first class Operators in their respective lines. The several offices are being beautifully and artistically fres- coed by Messrs. Schutter & Kahlert, who are gentlemen of high professional reputation and exalted private character. A Wasnincton BELLE crowNED.—Lxtract of a letter froma lady correspondent at Salem, Va.: “A splendid Tournament took place near this village on ae oe last, 14th. which was attended by the beauty, intelligence, and fashion of the paid eee country. Many ladies and gentle- men from Alexandria and the District cities graced the occasion with their presence. Mr. Turner was chief marshal of the day, and Mr. Jones the successful knight, who, in a 3yraceful manner, crowned Mi: inia Massie, of Washington City, as Queen of Love and Beauty. The maids of honor, were Miss Thomas of Culpeper, Miss Maddox of Salem, and Miss Jackson, near Mark- ham—all beautiful, and worthy of their honors. The day passed off delightfully, all enjoying the omnes hospitality, and c rming scenery of beautiful region of old Virginia.” Bitten By a Doc.—A little son of Mr. John Davis, master painter at the Capitol, was bitten in some half dozen places and lacerated in the most frightful manner yesterday by a large, fierce dog, the property @f acolored woman on South G street. The dog was afterwards shot by Officer Lloyd. ReEMevy ror A Snake Bitgz.—Mrs. Conly, the daughter of Mr. William Wilson, who, as we mentioned yesterday, was bitten by a snake last week, is doing well, andjjs believed to be out of danger. The remedy, Which was promptly ap- plied, was a simple poultice of onions and salt. Tue Jury in the election riot cases failed to bring in a verdict of acquittal in the cases of Gar- ner, Jones, Hurdle and Hoover, as requested by the District Attorney. They accordingly continue under bail, with the other parties indicted.
