VINELAND, Cumberland county, N J} August 11, 1873, For some days past this quiet and right-angled ‘town, founded on the alluvial deposits thrown up ‘by the Atlantic—perhaps a thousand years ago— has been in a state of fermentation, caused by the arrival of detachments of men and women who ‘wear by the cardinal doctrines of the modern fungus known as Spiritualism, Some of the streets in Vineland are ten miles Jong and lead seemingly to nowhere. The queer Sgures of the Spiritualists looked universally strange in this town as their shadows decpened ander the hot sun in the illimitable distances, bor- dered by sweetly smelling peach, apple and quince trees. % THE “CRANKY PEOPLE’ HOUSED. Following an old and hospitavie custom, many of the inhabitants of Vinciand were at the depot, which was loaded with boxes that had been emptied of grapes and other iruit, to welcome their amMnities to their homes, Houseroom and provender were freely ofered to all who would accept, anda man with @ riding whip in lis hand and his thin lews encased in huge riding boots seemed to have a discretion to act as a master of ceremonies if a favoravle chence should offer itself, The appearance of Vietoria Woodhall and Colonel Blood, with his side whiskers, was hailed with ac jaiion by some werk minded women, aud they were taken once, The various del: ‘them in a few moments, and a Mr. Fi escorted the Woodhu!l to a cagriage which w ‘waiting for her, “CONFLUENCE OF THE SPUPRES.’?

Wallace was dismissed In Janwary. Yesterday morning Counsellor Johnson applied to Judge Neilson for an order to Comptroller Schroeder to show cause why @ mandamus should notissue against him to compel lium to pay Wallace his salary for December.

Respectially STEN BALDWIN & CO., Ageuts State Line, THE 8TLa Vay to meet the tong | to | There was comparatively little of an oficial char- acter and of publfc interest developed in the public departments yesterday, A small army of small fry politicians invaded the Mayor's outer office, where Court was held by Mr. Wlider, the Mayor’s private secretary, to investigate a charge of blackmall against Thomas McGrath, one of the city marshals, appointed under the new charter. ‘The platatiiis were Charles Fields and R. E, Sar- geant, captain and mate of the brig Alta Vela, Mr. J. W. Lorton appeared as counsel for the plaintif—s and thumped tho case right and left, attracting much attention by the earnestness of Lis manner and the rayidity of bis speech as he went on to deiounce and expose this too frequent SYSTEM OF FRAUD and oppression. It appears from Mr. Lorton’s afidavit and statements in the case that McGrath had arrested Fields and Sargeant on an order of arrest from dudge Joachimsen, for committing an assault upon a sailor named Monnier, Mr, Lorton showed that he went to the office of the plaintifs’ attorney, and found F:elds and Sargeant imprisoned inaroom, The lawyer was notin, but the Mar- shal’s deputy and aclerk (a boy), by direction of McGrath, filled up the bonas, after which Mr, Lor- ton asked, ‘Mr, Marshal, will these bonds suit?” He replied, “They will when you pay me $20.” Mr. Lorton offered the legal fees several times, which McGrath refused, reiterating the demand, “Twenty dollars, and all will be right.” At Ludlow Street Jalil, he again offered the fees, but McGrath repeated, ‘Twenty dollars or Pil lock them up,” which'he did, Mr. Lor- ton then went to the house of Judge Joachimsen, who immediately vacated the order of arrest, aud the prisoners were discharged at seven o’clock. ‘The defence on the part of McGrath was a sort of denial and an apologetic admission of certain facts, it being claimed that the $20 csked was not as “{ees,’? but for “the troubie he took,” and so forth, in running around to enable the guia to geta simpie 300 bail. ‘The case looks like a bad one for “Mac,” and willbe referred to the Mayor tor de- cision upon tie evidence, While the hearing was goin; tered the oftice and Iniorme that on Monday evening A CERTAIN CITY MARSIAL had insisted on obtaining $11 60 as his fee for mak- ing an arrest, The young man learned yesterday that the legal tee was $150, and went to the Mayor's office to “see” about it. ‘The chances are that another marshal will “hear” about it in a day or two.

His Honor, however, im- pressed upon the delegation the fact so long as the ordinance stcod upon the statute book he was obliged to see it enforced, no matier how oopressive it might prove. The committee then visited the Corporation Counsel, and conferred with lim upon the matter. The in- terview was highly satisiactory to tie merchants, who jound that Air, Ruggles was inclined to the opinton that the permit system is ifega', and sug- gested that it is high time that the municipal ordinances geueraliy be reconstructed from begin- ning to end, as the most of them were enacted to Aigencies of forty years ago, when New York was but ap exaggerated village, “GOTTING DOWN.” Mr. William Maloney, clerk of the Board of As- sistant Alderinen, has taken it into his head to cut déwu the salaries and cut off the capuis of some of the attach¢s of bis office, and atthe same timo giucs on a couple of heads to other persons alter the following “scaie of prices:?— Originat Redueed Salary, Sulacye erge doorkeeper. . re This shows an apparent retrenchment of $1,900, When tue matter was let out that “Hlily” contem- viated this coup de main Assistant Alderman beyea and other members of the Board (it 1s gatd) objected most strenuously to it, and called on either the Mayor or the Comptroller about it, ‘This made Mr. Moloney maa, and he forthwith | proceeded to get square with Alderman Beyea by | reinoving his son, the $1,200 messenger, from ofice, George bette, a genial, gentiemanly and efticient young man, who held the oilice of Deputy Clerk, al30 ; CAME IN FOR A “FALL,” and was “removed,” and Mr. E, T, Fitzpatrick was promoted to fill the yoid which had been thus sum- marily created, and another man was put in Mr. Beyea, Jr.'s, place. Then it occurred to Mr. Molo- that, Imasmuch as there was $15,000 in all ap- Pp ated ior the salaries of his olfice, that 31,900, which at first sight appeared to be “retrench- ment,” might be made to pay board for some indus- ee, oung men who are not exactly accustomed to hard work. ‘The Napoleoutc Moloney took the situation in at a glance and found out a way to spend the money by appointing an extra clerk at $1,000 and an extra messenger at $900 per year; and now ail the money can be spent and amon two more people than formerly, while several 0! those who used to pocket some of it, and who were not what may be called “popular” with Mr, Moloney, will pocket it no more—if he can heip it, The new appointees “to fill vacancies” and to Ol plac just created by Mr. Moloney for them, arei— Patrick Fitzgerald, “clerk”? oe $1,000 Abbott, “assistant” messenger... #0 Fdward Down 1,00) Of course tt may be just possible that the Board At its next session will undertake to fight Mr. Moloney on this question, that is il they have any Tight to reguiate such matters. The presumption is that Mr. Moloney woutdn’t do it if he had not the Tight to do it. MORE CONViCrS ON THE WING. Another Escape from the State Prison at Sing Sing—four Convicts Get Away from Confinement by the Aid of a Ven= lilator and a Lightning Condactor— What Warden Hubbell Has to Say About It, In the smallest of the small hours of yesterday morning four convicts escaped from Sing Sing Prison, Their mode of escape was daring and re- markable, and, as Warden Hubbell said yesterday toareporter of the HeraLp, 18 without excuse on the part of those who had the im- P@aiate care of the prisouers, The four men were in ceils on the upper gallery, near the roof. In consequence of the very crowded condition of the prison, two convicts were compelled to occupy one ccil in nearly filty instances, and this over- crowding was taken advantage of by these prisoners, They must have been secretly at work diggiag away some portion of their cells for several nights, but from the peculiar place they selected the digging was not perceptible unless the keeper went in to inspect the cell, Their cells were immediately under the ventilator, and having gained access to that they tore down the Venetian silps of wood suficiently to effect an exit to the roof, and then they climbed down the lightning rods, Which seem to be specially constructed for the escape o1 prisoners. ‘Ine keepers on the gal- Jery where those men Were confined sald that they heard @ noise at the time it is supposed the men escaped, and they listened, but ag a railroad wain passed at the time they thought they had been de- ceived by that and did not prosecute their search any further, Their conduct is certainly open te suspicion, but as TUK ESCAPED CRIMINALS are of a very insignificant class, itis scarcely likely that any corrupt motive was operative. In reier- ence to the frequeucy of escapes, lately, Warden Hubbell said yesterday that up to the present time, trom the Ist of January fourteea pris- oners had escaped, five of whom had been captured, None of the criminals were of a very distinguished character or had been committed for any heinous crimes, During last year, under a different administration, twelve prisoners had es- ved, only one of whom had teen captured, arly all Of these were notorious criminals and were committed for very serious offences, The foliowing is @ description of the convicts, taken irom the prison books :— OFFICIAL DESCRIPTION OF THE CONVICTS, John W.

DENVILLE CAMP MEETING. Cpening fervices Yesterday—Sermon by Rev. Dr. Bartine, of Morristown—A Blast at Beecher—Sketch of the Place= Ministers Present—Programme of Mect- ings. Nestled away in one of the most beautiful of the many charining hills and groves in New Jersey are some three or four hundred Christians gathered for a ten days’ campaign against the world, the fleab, ana the devil. The grove ig about a mile east of the village of Denville, N. J., on the Morris and Essex division of the Delaware, Lackwanna & Western Railroad, and thirty-seven miles ‘rom New York, A ride of one hour and @ half brought the HgRaLpD representative out there yesterday, and a return ride of two hours brought him back again at @ cost for the ride of seventy-four miles for $140. The grove in which the camp is pitched is a fow hundred yards from the railroad station, and In that respect is quite convenient for visitors, It is a young chestnut grove aud is located on the side of the hill, trom the top of which a panorama of rare beauty, of hilland dale, of woodland and lowland, stretches out before the eye of the be- holder, The grounds comprise about one hundred and thirty acres of wood and meadow land. The association has lately added another piece of wood, lying to the southeast of their camp ground, to that already in their possession, 80 as to keep it out of the hands of other parties wio were secking | to get it and perhaps to use It to the injury of the camp. The camp presents to the stranger moro the appearance of a permanent place of residence than a mere camp meeting resort. There are about SIXTY-SEVEN COTTAGES now on the grounds, some of them of most elab- orate design and finish. The camp presents the usual semi-circular appearance. The principal avenues are circular, or nearly so, and are tuter- sected at regular right angles by other streets and avenues, The lower avenue, now opened and used, is named after Bishop Simpson, and tho upper after Bishop Morris, These two avenues form a junction at @ point near the easterly en- trance from the high road. There is, however, a more southerly road, not yet opened, named after Bishop Scott, ‘hen there are other roads, ave- nues and places named aiter Bishops Janes, Asbur’ and Clark, and after Wesley, Fletchor, Whitéeld, Embery, Watson and other historic Methodist characters. The grounds are exceedingly “raw.” There is scarcely a green thing to be scen in the grove proper, save the leaves on the trees, The shade is not as good as is to be found in soine other of the popular camp grounds; but with age the trees wilj present a thicker aud better foliage. There are to be found on the grounas a posi office, grocery, fancy, furniture and other stores ; a1so an ice-cream and confectionery tent and tiree boarding and restaurant tents. On the inner circie of “Trinity Park”—the space about the preacoing stand—are THREE CHARMING COITAGES, two of them owned and occupied by Mr, Richard- son and Dr. Cozard, o! Jersey city, and the third unoceupied, ‘They are furnished with all the modern improvements of city nousea, save bath- rooms. They ave supplied with gas aud water, and lor xceedingly comfortable. ‘there are several others not quite so elaborately finished, but equally comfortable. This camp ground is in ad- vauce of all others around New York in that gas is manufactured on the spot, from which not only the preacuing park and the stand, but many of the cottages aiso are supplica, Within the bounds of the grove and on the top of the ill @ reservoir is conveniently located, irom which some of the purest and coolest spring water that the writer has ever tasted 18 distriputed to the cottages and throughout the grounds. This water is pumped by steam irom a well located two or three ficlas ‘on another side hilt, MINISTERS PRKSENT YESTERDAY. There were present at the opening services yes- terday alterncou about twenty-five ministers aud several studenis from Drew Seminary, in Madison. Among the pastors on the ground were Revs. Dr. Bartine, of Moriistown; L. RK. bunn, of Paterson; James M. Tuttle, agent of the Con‘erence Seminary at Hackettstown; H. G, Cowans, of Springfield, an exceedingly genial gentleman; James M, Fr Assistant Secretary of the Sunday-Se: nio: H. Opdyke, of Rahway; Henry Speliman, of Bios fieia; & P. Rooney, of Hackettstown; William Searles, Thomas Hi. Smith, Thomas Waiters, J. Re Bryan, Join Atkinson; —— Shiels, of Alientown, Pa.; K. Van Horne and others. Some of these brethren who live within convenient distance from | the camp ground returned to tueir homes aiter the opening service, Rev. Dr. Variiue, who had been booked to preach to-day, delivered the opening sermon yesterday, inasmuch as he had @ previous engagement to preach at Geean Grove to-day. of the old-fashioned Methodist kind, and elicited od many “hallelujais” and “amens” from the hers and people, His text was Ephesians iv., reve not tne Holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.” The doctor touched on the divinity, the power and the oodness of the Holy Ghost, but his leading hought was the love of the Spirit to jallen men. This thought he elaborated and iliustrated at some length, and repeated the injunction of the text, not to grieve that loving Spirit. In giving instances of the way his heurers iiight grieve the Spirit, he said he feared some of his young brethren in the ee were preaching an emasculated theology and running aiter Ward Beecher. He hoped, however, tuat every sucit one would take letters of disinissal from the Methodist Church, so that they could not claim y relation to that Church while they preached sucha gospel. He did not think OLD-PASIIONED, GOSPEL METHODISM could be much improved by the new styles. He bade them beware of spoiling the beauty of Methodism by overdoing it. ae e, hinseit to the congregation present, he bade them not grieve the Holy bea. by eating big dinners, by sitting up late and singing and shouting and dis- turbing the rest of their neighbors, and he urged them all to fotiow the leadings of that Moly Spirit during the camp meeting. Al six o'clock a prayer meeting was held, and at half-past seven the Rev. Mr. ‘Tuttie preached, In- stead of the prayer tents which were used last year two very handsome circular, wooden struc- tures, with canvas sides, have been erected, one on either side of the preaching piace, and in theze the prayer meetings are to be held. They are to be dedicated to-day. ‘The workmen were busy with them yesierday. The programme of meetings daily 1s substantially the same as 18 observed at other camps, and is faithfully adnered to. There was an aual present at the cree services yesterday, and thousands are expected during tlhe week. CRIME AND CASUALTIES IN NEWARK, Two men turned up in Newark recently peddling , Obscene literature. They chanced across Police Justice Mills and tried to rope him in as a pur- chaser. Instead, they were roped into Court, and, | on promising to give Newark @ wide berth, were ailowed to go, A noted Newark rough, named Frank Brady, tried to steal a ride irom New York to Newark yes- terday. He was arrested at the Market street de- pot by the Superintendent, but who, on his way to he station house, was badly beaten by his pris- The body of & man of medium helght, about thirty years Of age, with brown hau and dark mus- taches and dressed in a heavy biack Coat, colored shirt, dark brown pants and gaiters, was found on Monday night on the track of the Pennsylvania Kailroad, near the South Broad street station. ‘There Was a ghastly wound on his head, where the Skul Was broken. His lett foot was shockingly mangled, a portion of it being gone, and there was @ severe abrasion on the left shoulder. No clue exists as to the identity of the man, but he is be- lieved to have been a brakeman. A mad bwii breke loose from a drove of steers in Newark on Mouday evening, and created great alarm among the citizens, several persons nar. rowly escaping being gored to death. The beast was finally despatened with @ rite shot and a butcher's knife. SOHUETZENFEST OF CITIZEN SOLDIGRY, Yesterday morning the Schuetzen Park at Union Hill, N. J., was the scene of more than ordinary gaiety. The members of the Eighth regiment of the New York State National Guard arrived in companies within a few blocks of the grounds, and marcied to the tune of lively airs struck up by their own musicians, Ten companies, comprising about thvee hundred men, appeared in full uniform and proceeded to the shooting stand for target practice, It being only preliminary to the compe- tition for prizes which 1s to take place after a few weeks, accounts for the want oi due interest taken In the affair and the lack of vim displayed in firing, The cheerfulness and general bearing of the mem- bers, however, entitie them to much credit. In the afternoon Governor Parker «nd the generals of the State of New Jersey reviewed tie regiment on the neat grass piot near the castle, and were highly gratiied with the mancwuvres of tie men. Speeches were made by the Governor, Colonel Scott and others, who congratu'ated the men of the regiment on their successinl career, Music and the dance were indulged into an sdvanced hour, His sermon was one | lence of about three hundred persons | Meeting of the Commissioners—The Prison Tq Be Within the Sixth Ward Limits. ‘The “Tombs”—New York's famous prison mauga leum—like in architecture and associations, and with a singularly gloomy history, is doomed, prot} ably, to demolition, certainly to disuse as & cone ciergerie, and within three or four years the people will, probably, see @ larger, healthier and more suitable edifice erected in its stead, only five or alB blocks northeasterly of the present structures ‘she Commission ereated by the last Legislature, consisting of the Mayor, the Comptroller and the President of the Board of Aldermen, with autho- rity “to locate and erect @ suitable building to be used as @ city prison and bridewell in the place and stead of the building now used and occopied for that purpose,” met at four o'clock yesterday afternoon in the’ Mayor’s office, The seasion was for the purpose of receiving the final report of SELECTION OF THE SITB, the ninety days from the passage of the act expiring to-morrow. ‘The meeting did not occapy over fifteen minates, The minutes of the last meeting (held on Monday) were read and ap proved. A preamble and resolution were offered by the Comptroller approving of and selecting as the loca- tion of tne proposed new prison the block of land bounded on the north by Canal street, on the east by Elizabeth street, on the south by Bayard stree¢ ; and on the west by tiott street, The trontage measurements of this plot of ground are jo lows :—On Canal street, 187 feet 6 inches; 01 Za beth street, 869 feet 10 inches; on Baybrd stree ane es 4 inches, and on Mott street 400 feet juches, President VANCE moved the adoption of the re port and resolution, and the motion was earri ‘The COMPTROLLER then moved that the Com siouers proceed to allix their signatures to the no- tice Of such selection, which the law requires ai | at once filed and recorded in the office of the Re; | ter of Deeds for the City aud County of New York, The notice was duly signed and witnessed, and the first step in the matter was thas completes THE NEXT MOVEMENT required under the Jaw is that within forty days the Commissioners shall apply to the Supreme Court, at Special Term, for the Sppcntingns of | three commissioners of appraisal, who shall, when | appointed, make @ fair and just appraisal of com- pensation to property owners whose premises are embraced within the selected area.
