CAMP MEETING AT VINEYARD GROVE, teat Religious Demonstration—The Cottages and Tents—Over Ten Thousand Persons ~ } Encamped for the Coming Week— Extensive Preparations. Manrna’s VINEYARD, August 22, 1870, .. ‘Tne great annual camp meeting, so well known tthe New England States in connection Martha's Vineyard, will commence this even- From all appearances it will be the largest held on the ground.

Owing to the numbers which attended Rast year and the large patronage bestowed upon the place, ithes undergone considerable improve- ment. Over fifty new cottages have been built on camp meeting ground and near the bluffs, both distinct properties, belonging to different cor- Porations. The price of cottages ranges from a few hundred dollars up to three thousand and upward, ‘while the renting of one for the season costs @bout three nundred dollars. Most of them are luxu- riously tarnished and give evidences of great taste, ‘comfort and elegance. Fifty carpenters were employed during the whole "inter making alterations and improvements, and, fm addition to the facilities introduced, the government has established a post ofice on the ground. The tand bas undoubtedly increased fn value; several new hotels have been built, ‘While a good, substantial wharf has been erected about three-quarters of a mile trom the one at Oak Bluds. The leading men, under whose auspices the camp meeting 1s annually held, have put a wharf at Holmes’ Hole harbor, and have extended tt so that the Portland and New York steamboats could land their passengers going and coming. It is said that the association will extend the base of thelr religious operations as far as Holmes’ Hole. Tuere is much ‘Opposition between the Oak Bluils Company and the camp meeting association. The former are making Birenuous eforts to popularize the locality, but are, mevertheless, runinng up prices; while the associa- tion are anxious that summer residents should out- umber the people within the pale of their jurisdic- tion.

Some of them perform domestic labor for tieir white brethren, but the majority of hem are on their religious dignity, and have not by ny Means a small opinion of themselves. Irreligious ople have it that the whole camp meeting is got- 2 up for speculative purposes, and that not a few fatten on the wirength of the pious digplay. But there are always persons ready to circulate such rumors, regardless of their foundauion, Howbelt the camp presi 8 at Martha's Vineyard will this year be the largest held for many years. Ice cream will not be sold on Sundays, and notices are extensively osted that vehicles containing pleasure parties will Bor be allowed on the grounds, ‘The order of services will be the same every day during the week, commencing each morning at eignt "clock witlf @ prayer meeting. At noon there will @notler prayer meeting and @ sermon, one at four and the last for the day at seven o'clock. A large tent has been erected im the centre of the grounds fur the religious services, and is capable of ‘accom. Moduting over 5,000 persons, ‘The first regular meeting will be held this aivernoon. WILSON TIE MURDIRER, Somo Facts in the Previous Life of the Mure derer of Warden Willard of the Connecticut Stato Prison. {From the Hartford Courant, August 22.] There are wany facts hitherto unpublished con- erning the life of Wilson, who murdered Warden Willard of the State prison, which will come to fight probably before the great criminal dies. Ee story of his life has not yet been in print. uch that the papers have published has been pure fiction. Public interest will not so much bventre in the details of his burglaries as in the ac- counts which may be given ot his marvellous es- capes from prison walls. There has not been so dexterous a criminal in the United States during the time of perfected prison discipline, as the his- tory of his operations will show. Asan example of his escapes, the writer, who has held many in- terviews with.him, may here allude briefly to his hegira from the New Jersey State prison. He paid he got away from there because the warden took him fora fool, and he wished to convince him to the contrary. He got from his cell into a ventilating flue connecting with a chimney, aod crawled to the open air. Before his escape was discovered he was secreted. The first night out he broke into a country store, mot six miles from the prison, and there secured a few yards of cloth, shears, needles, thread, &c., and before mo..'»¢ he got into the woods. Here he cut and made a suit of clothes, having provided for his keeping during the time required to com- plete the work by stealing and killing a chicken at afarm house on his way to the woods. Many criminals would not have had the pluck and con- fidence to risk a burglary for the sake of stealin, what he did, yet it was necessary to his final eseape that he should ae some way dispose of his prison uniform. When his rig was finished he was as good as disguised init, and ey Teas pro- ceeded to the nearest depot and boldly took the cars. He read a description of himself and a re- ‘ward offered inthe depot. But he wasn’t the man sat all; he didn’t answer the description. Details of the escape would do for a Dick Turpin novel. ‘His burglary here in Hartford of Brown, Thomp- ‘son & Co.’s store, was well planned and executed, and only a slip trapped him. He had secreted a art of his stolen goods in a corn shed in erlin, and taking a bag or two of silks, drove to Meriden. He must leave his horse some- ‘where, and he drove it under a shed very early in the morning, near what appeared to be a farmer's house. He supposed, and naturally too, that a farmer lived there; but it happened to be a bank officer. Had Wilson known that he would have driven further on. ‘I’m not sucha fool as that,” he anid, “to drive up toa bank officer’s door; he would be suspicious of burglary any way; a farmer mever would have suspected.’ The hired man on ‘the premises discovered the team and reported to the Bank officer, who at once had the Meriden of- ficers notified, and Wilson and his companions were arrested. It is doubtful if Wilson would fee been caught if his feet were sound; but both eing amputated, he is not the man he was. He gaid to the writer:—‘'I saw the situation of things at the depot before I got there, but I knew it was of no use to do anything but face it; I could not run!” Since the [oss of his feet he has, of course, labored under a great disadvantage. Before Ahat he had noted criminais in his com- pany, who would aid him if he got into trouble, but when his own powers of escape were weakened they said that he was too hazardous 6 man to train with, and » fo he was forced to ‘go it alone.’ Ia this he lost two-thirds of his tormer glories as a profes- sional burglar, and he felt it keenly. is at- tempts at escape since he has been in Wethers- field this time have been mere feints to impress people that he was invincible. The talk about it touched his pride, and that was all he expected. He knew he could not get out; that it was virtu- ally a life sentence, and the best he could do was ‘to commit some awful crime which would end his days. ‘The idea that he murdered Captain Wil- liard to get back into jail, where his chances of escape would be better (?), is absurd. He was ) pretty well convinced before he leit the jail that by R was firmly secured there, and so he was, and will be whonever he shall be returned there to be brought up for trial. There are many things about the man which are utterly incompre- hensible to those who have etudied his character the closest. Nothing in his talk betokens the vil- lain; but one who converses with bim much will obscrve the strange colduess of his eye, while yet thero is something about the singular curves of his mouth which tells of cunning and treachery.

To THE Epiror or THE H Down to the year 1553 the American ship was in great demand, because, being consiructed by talent and controled by skill, she was constantly im- proved, and thus kept the lead as the best and best managed ship in the world, the pride and envy of the nations. But at this time, for well defined reasons which we will not mention, a highly re- markable decay commenced; our .ships began rapidly to decline in value. ‘To account for it it was said that steam was superseding sails. During the war, and for two years afier, the decay was charged to it; when tls could no longer be done it was then sald that {ron ships were better than wooden ships; and now it 1s said that what is needed 1s cheap ships. The shifting caaracter of these pretended causes proves them to be mere apologies, miserable subteriuges resorted to to conceal from ourselves and others the only cause, which was and is the lack of best and best managed ships, There was a time when the British siipowners were atly dis- tressea because their vessels could not obtain profit- able employment, and they petitioned their govern- ment to give them relief trom the then superior American ship. Thelr governinent, mstead of re- sorting to subterfuges, sought out the trath, humilia- ting as it Was, that there was not so much differ- ence in the ship us there Was in the shipmaster; that tue American common school system produced a superior man. 118 Was equivalent to saying that the success of our ships Was attributable to posses- Sion of greaicr tulents und to More sktiful manage- ment, because We as freemen enjoyed superior iutel- Jectual advantages. ‘his truth the shipowner re- ceived, and at olice set about linproving the talenis and skill of those that managed their ships, and they have sluce reaped a rich reward because of the wis- dom of the course pursued. 4% we would revive our shipping interests, if we would also reap a rich har- vest, We too must look humiliating truths in the face, aud we wust receive and be guided by them as men valuing their manhood shouid—as true men will, Our shipping interests were destroyed by shipown- ers adoptung and pursuing a course the direct oppo- site Of that that was advancing the british shipping interest so much. in the year 1868 merchants, to prevent progress, took a stand against it; they sald the ship was then periect, and that she should not be further inproved. A former president of the New York Chamber of Commerce and a large shipowner told the writer that “that body would never be will- ing to admit that the American ship was in any re- spects wrong.” ‘To prevent progress talent and skull were banished from their management the for- eign element was largely introduced, and wealth and its flunkles assumed the control. Since then not an iinprovement has been made, and few have dared to suggest any; newspapers have closed thelr col- unions to every aitempt ol the kind, and shipbuilders and riggers nave been especially careful to build and rig the few vessels constructed on-old fogy prin- ciples, Under the operation of this retrospective system our ships soon lost their prestige, because they no longer deserved it, and there bel no pro- fitable employment for them, they died a suicidal deuth. These tacts ure well known to all connected With the merchant marine duriug these years, and they should be known to ali who desire the revival of the shipping interests as the trae, the actual, the only sufficient cause of its decay. ‘Skipowners now, being periectly aware that the $riasn have bewter and better managed ships than can be constructed or wanuged im this country un- der the present system, are crying out to the gov- ernmeat for tree ships, Or to allow them the privi- lege of buying cheap ships. What they need is best ships; but the word cheap 1s used a8 a blind to cover up their conduct and the terrible disgrace of tne thing. Ships thus obtamed wouid be dear at any price. We call this a free country, Where every man enjoys freedom of speech and action, yet tn all these ears taient and skill have been , an ound hand and foot, rendered speecuiess and helpless to event the ruthiess destruction of this great bulwark of the nation—to prevent the destruction of great interests, and the deep humiliation of the people by the unwise course pursued by a few merchants and their atders and abeitors.

The altered aspect of the war news withdrawing from the market that opposition to a rise which was offered by whe German bankers during the recelpt of despatches favorable to Prus- sia, the feeling in the room, based upon various theories, appeared to be all on one side, and the ad- vance was steady throughout the day with ouly slight fluctuations, the highest figare of the pre- mium being reached at the close of business. ‘The infuonces operating to this were frst, no doubt, the change in the military situation. The constant and tt appeared uninter- Fupted successes of the Prussians had become so identified with @ falling premium that it was a natural result that their first reverses should be umpomtsly applied. In addition to this the REPORTS FROM LONDON ofthe state of the bond market there helped this conolusion. The first price there represented bonds to be 8234. Later the noon quotation was reported 883¢ @ 885 and the price at the close 88 a 88%. Con- sols showed a fractional decline in the middle of tne day from thew opening figure, going of from 91% & 91% & O1K @ 9134, which, it was supposed, indicated the same feeling in England tn respect to the war news as prevailed here, In the afternoon, however, these recovered and closed steady at the first faures. Aturther influence operating to advance the pre- mium was the circillation of a report, which obtained considerable credeace in the room, that 4 POOL had been formed for that purpose, and that already large sums had been bought with the object of making asqueeze. This report could not be traced to anysource whence further particulars could be obtained, and although the scheme is possible it is quite as probable that the suspicion originated in the favorable opportunity which the recent heavy logs of specie on the part of the banks and the con- tinued drain for exports affords now for carrying it out. Besides, it 1s doubiless recollected that about this time last year originated the conspiracy which Tesulted in the famous September gold corner, and the fear of history repeating itself may be in the minds of many of the sufferers by that incident, especially as its chief promoters still move in the same sphere, more admired for their cleverness than reprobated for the ruin they brought about, A more reasonable solution of the change in the condition of the markot is to be found tn the LARGE OUTSTANDING SHORT INTEREST, which, notwithstanding the purchases of yesterday, caused a demand this morning for cash gold, the loaning rates ranging from 1 and 2 per cent for carrying to flat and 1 and 2 per cent for borrowing. It would not need much prudence to prevent one going short of gold on the eve of such a great battle as is now impending, especially considering how im- perfect 1s our Knowledge of the condiuon of the Op. posing armies, nor would it be considered overcau- tion for one who was short to cover at such time, In view of these facts it would seem as teongh there were quite enough in the NATURAL OAUSES operating upon the market to bring about the ad- vance of to-day, a(ter all less than one per cent, with- out a dreaded “‘corner,’’ which it is sincerely hoped for the honor of Wall street may, in this instance, turn out to bea myth. One such holocaust as that of the Black Friday a year ago ought to satisfy the most devoted worsnipper of Mammon.

Reports reached police headquarters about half-past twelve o’clock yesterday afternoon, that @ woman had been shot through the head in the vicinity of the factory. City Marshal Kress and officer Watson immediately proceeded to the place indicated and arrested George Van DeBo- gart, the perpetrator of the crime. The person shot is Bridget Haunihan, wife of Michael Hanni- han. The ball entered her cheek, cut the root of her tongue and pare and lodged in the opposite side of her neck, producing a very dangerous, if not a fatal wound. She was attended by Drs. P. H. and John M. Flood, who rendered such surgi- cal aid as her condition required. The weapon with which the shooting was done was a four shooter, requiring @ good sized cartridge, which Van DeBogart surrendered to the officers who made his arrest. The cause of the distur- bance, as we learn from the officers, waa that the woman Bridget claimed to have cause for bein, jealous of her husband Michael and the wife o ‘an DeBogart. To vent her spite upon her rival she therefore proceeded to stono her residence, which was situated upon the lot adjoining her own. The glass is reported to have been broken in sevoral of the windows. This conduct was not relished by Van DeBogart, and he fred upon tho woman Brit get, with the resufé shove inficated. The person was confioed in jail and the circumstances attending the will proba- bly be inqaired into to-day before ‘Mul- ler. At the time of our latest information the wounded woman was still alive and as comforta- ble as could be expected from the character of her wounds.
