Se Eee a a ma coe TT THE EASTERN INSURRECTION, The Excitement in Servia—Pictures from Servian Life, THE TRUE STORY OF THE REBELLION. Bosnia the Great Stronghold of the Insurgents. Be.oraps, Servia, Sept. 17, 1875. ‘This morning there was a new departure of yolun- teers for the frontier of Bosnia, and no attempt was made to conceal the fact, The men were rough and ready follows, clad in the costume almost universal ‘among the lower classes in Servia, Bosnia and Her- zegovina, the baggy breeches and the loose flowing ack of coarse material; the ornamented leggings and coarse cowskin sandals; the gaudy scarf crammed with formidable looking knives and immense Turkish and Armenian pistols, and their tanned faces, brought into strong relief by the glaring red ot their caps, Thero scoms nothing like bravado about these people; they go very quictly away in an orderly manner, as if ‘they fully appreciate the danger to which they are ex- posed. If caught they will experience the pleasing sensation of being impaled alive upon sbarp sticks, which the Turkish troops have ®@ wonderful talent for preparing. There isno doubt whatever that the Turks have been, and are still daily, guilty of the most frighfal barbarities tow- ard their prisoners. As they punish Servians whom they find in Bosnia just as severely as the Bosnians themselves, it is certain that Servia will ere long, what- ever the Skuptschina may do now, be practically at war with Turkey, unless the insurgents in the neighboring provinces are completely crushed out. And, as the mountaing are the allies of the insurgents, the Turks will have much to do before they can with trath an- nounce that the crushing out has been effectual. All Belgrade was on foot this evening to see the ro- ‘turn of the militia from its annual encampment which ‘Ihave mentioned in a previous letter. The scene was very charming, The main avenue of the town, the Te- rasia, was brilliantly illuminated by the last rays of the gorgeous southern sunlight, and the picturesquo cos- tumes of tho hundreds of groups were rendered daz. | zling by the after glow. ‘The troops came marching down the long tree-lined avenue leading from the en- ‘ampment, and passed in excellent order to the main avenue, Most of the men looked bot- | ter in line than they had appeared on the field. They were the butchers, bakers and hairdressers of the city and the sturdy peasants from the neighboring towns; but they were all ani- mated by a desire to preserve discipline, and succeeded well. There were cries for war as these gallant troops filed past, but there were no responses from the ranks Deyond occasional significant winking. To-day, also, I have seen a detachment of the troops of the regular Bervian army which will bear favorable comparison with any in the Austrian line, and are incomparably superior to anything the Turks now have in the field, IfServia had 60,000 such men as theso regulars whom I saw going to their exercise at sunrise this morning sho could drive the Turks out of Europe in four months, THE SERVIAN GENERAL Tho General of the Servian army was kind enough to accord me an interview, in which he declared, without Feserve, that he believed peace would be for the pres- ent preserved. General Lach is one of the most accom- Plished and polished soldiers in the Danubian Prinel- palities. He hasin previous years given his sword in the service of revolutions, and has been well and honor- ‘bly known as a commander, He did not disguise his own convictions that in time Servia would once more have to come to blows with Turkey, nor did he seem to regard the eventual federation of Servia, Bosnia, Her- wegovina and Montenegro asa dream, He sympathizes to the fullest extont with the people in their aspira- tions for Sclavic unity in their section; but he imagines that the present duty of the government under which he holds office is peace. He said that Servia could, in ‘case of emergency, bring 60,000 men into the fleld for Immediate action, but that it would be a great strain, While we were in conversation the General was con- stantly called to receive the cards of some mysterious visitors, who came to solicit atd forthe insurgents. Ho smiled as he spoke of the great number of requests flaily made for arms, and as he mentioned the impossi- bility of granting them, there were cases, he said which were very affecting, cases in which stout peasants, who were doubtless actuated by the purest motives, were moved to anger and to tears because the government would not give weapons. These peasants “he said, always brought tales of the most horrible torture inflicted by the Turks on the Christians, “What,” said one stout farmer to the General, drawing bis tall form up to its fullest height and placing one huge brown hand on the little arsenal of knives in his girdle, “What! our brethren are perishing under tho bastinado and we are not to be allowed to have guns with which to shoot their tormentors,” and, although the peasant took his leave of the General politely, it was evident that he was deeply wounded and offended ‘and would not fail to work ‘inst the government's projects of peace. The General shrugged his shoulders when I asked him if the people were likely to be head- strong and might refuse to listen to the cautions show- ered upon them from all parts of Europ, “It is a people,” he said, ‘Jealous of interference, hot-blooded and apt to resent, without much regard to consequences, any check upon their desires,” The Skuptschina is largely composed of peasants who know almost nothing ‘of the affairs of Europe, outside of their own country, and who care less, The one-third of the Assembly ‘which is appointed by the government does its best to act as a leaven of moderation, but does not always - ®Bucceed. General Lach mentioned the fact that the | Skuptschina has the power, in case {t is entire- ly displease’ with the course of events in Bervia, to convoke an extraordinary Assem- Diy for the revision of the constitution and for special measures generally, and this, although the General did not say so, might give a severe blow to the government itself, After an interview which the pres. vence of clamorous insurgents in the ante-chamber necessarily made brief sweets and coffee were served in ‘the Eastern fashion, and I left the General, convinced ‘that he would, in case of actual war, do the Servian ‘ation good service and much credit. AN INSURGENT CHIEF, ‘You have, ef course, heard of Mitcha Linbobratich, ‘the celebrated insurgent chicf, who has been making such a stir among the Turks in the Herzegovina Liubobratich started from here on his tour in search of new fight against the Porte and its oppressions. He fa a man of some learning and much energy; his por- sonal friends hero speak very highly of him, although they frown on any prospects of mediation, such as those essayed by the consuls at Mostar and Stolatz, and ‘would not sanction Liubobratich should he participate im them. He had been living for some time in Bele grade, where be had retired at the close of a previous movement against the Turks, a movement in which he was ono of the jeaders, when an incident occurred svhich really began the present insurrection, and brought him once moro into the field. It appears That certain promtnent Christian citizens in Herzego. vina had become:conspicuous as counsellors of resist- ‘ance to the crushing taxation of which the Turks are guilty. The heavy hand of the Porte was about to be ‘aid on theso men, when they were warned and fled to tho mountains of Momtonegro, taking refugo under the protection of the Prinwe of that Principality. Thero in the caverns and amongtthe almost impenetrable ravines ef the Lernuyora they were meditating plans for future ‘action when they received from the Montenegrin capi- tal messages announcing \that the Turks, in a spirit of fonciliation, had agreed to\pardon them if they would return; and, in addition to* this, all kinds of reforms ‘m the local administration wete promised, The unfor- tanate men were foolish enougit to believe the Turkish word and returned to their homes. They were imme- Miately arrested, taken before some local functionary, and every one was executed before any attempt ata ue could be planned by the Christian in- itants, This vindictive slaughter, which was one of the many moxplicably foolish acts which the Turks are constantly committing, in their Buropean provinces, terribly exasperated the popula- dion of Herzegovina, It appeared to them like @ mockery of their prayers for peaceful reform, like & firect insult to all their overtures for conciliation sad comncoming The Turk, ngs oentent with iinet ‘He giapurs, must massacre fhose leaders who dared to sssert that their souls were their own. A kind of mad- ness upon the rayab, who trembled as he thought of his own folly in rising against tho turbaned tyrant who has kicked, bastinadoed and sabred his race tor nearly 400 years. Messengors were sent through all the land, into the mountain. passes, along the foaming Narenta and down the smoothly flowing Save, through forests, and to the monasteries on the cliffs, and letters describing the massacre of the Herzegovinians were sent to Liubobratich tn Belgrade, The day after the receipt of the letters Linbobratich purchased a simple outfit and left Belgrade for the Her- zegovina, In the wild mountain passes he rallied around him a little band, and tho insurrection at once began to make a noise in Europe, Liubobratich has not Since that time been thoroughly satisfactory to the in- surgents as aleader, but mainly because ho has not been able to furnish them with arms and munitions. ‘They need something beside leaders; they need good guns and plenty of cartridges, Liubobratich and Pope Larcho are the two leaders who have, thus far, done most to give the insurrection force and prospect of continuance than any one else, The priestsin Bosnia are nearly all interested in the rebellion, They are men of extraordinary will and much learning. They have succeeded tm infusing cen- siderable courage into even the trembling rayah. Larcho and his men made a curious beginning. They “polted,” as the English would say, with some cannon belonging to Servia trom a poiut on the frontier, and made a series of reckless attacks on the Turks where- ever they found them. The Bosnian Mussulmans aro nearly all Serbs in reality—that is, they, like the Chris- tians or “‘rayahs,” speak the same language spoken in Servia, and have other points of resemblance with their neighbors, They aro nearly all renegade Chris- tiaus, and besides being great fanatics they are great cowards. Pope Larcho and his little army created a ter- rible sensation among them. Their frightened imagina- tions pictured the war-inspired priest followed by horde of bloodthirsty peasants bearing down upon their Villages, and they at once huddled together for protec. massacres of prisoners to occur, although the Turks, whenever any priests are taken, put them to death with the most cruel tortures, Let me give you an ex- ample, which Lhave had from the mouth of an eye witness, THE TURKS TORTURE AND IMPALE 4 PRIEST. Two priests iu a monastery not far from Berbir, which is a Turkish fortress opposite Alt Gradiska, in Austria, were convicted by the Turks of participating in the Insurrection, A force was sent to the monastery, and ono of the priests was captured. Tho other suc- ceeded in escaping to the mountains, The priest who alive, and after being allowed to suffer the horrible tor- tures consequent on mutilation for some tiine he was impaled on a sharp stake and left as a warning to all others, A troop was sent into the hillside forests in pursuit of the second priest, but he was not found until a day or two after, when hunger forced him to stray into a neighboring village. There he was recognized, denounced by some Bosnian Mussulmans and at once arrested. A guard was sent for und the unfortunate priest was brought into Berbir half dead from wounds and with a huge iron collar around his neck. He was thrown into a filthy dungeon and was not even given food. He seemed likely to starve before his tormentors should decide to kill him, At this juncture the Austrian Consul at Berbir heard of the priest's Horrjble treatment. Now the Austrian Consul there isa man, and his blood boiled as he saw the ignorant and degraded Turks/ day by day abusing men who are in everything their betters. When tho fate of the first priest and the danger of the second was related to him he went straightway to the local func- tionary and said something very like this:—You mis- | belngs, and above all ministers of God, as you have | treated this poor priest? Are you not aware that an | intelligent Europe, which despises you, is looking on?” | The Consul, whatever he said, used very strong language and demanded that the collar be at once taken from the priest’s neck and that he be given decent food and some kind of protection against the howling mob that surrounded the jail, Perhaps there was a tinge of Sclayonic blood in this Austrian Consul’s veins, and that there was beneath his earnest pleading for tho the dull Turk could discern, At any rate, the consular suggestions were heeded, and the life of the priest up to date has been spared, although he is still in prison, The Consul merits a medal from his government for his intervention in behalf of humanity. The story gocs that he threatened to pull down his flag and retire if- tho Turks did not yield to his request; but that is not confirmed. The stories of Turkish cruelty are indisputably true, and there are enough of them to condemn forever the administrations of the oppressed provinces. Servia | herself bas ample cause to-day for making war on Turkey, for she has received provocations which seem almost incredible because of their audacity. At the very moment that the Turks announce their intention of in no manner interfering with Servian affairs during the progress of the present struggle, their troops pene- trate a frontier Servian villago and kill women and children and impale men alive. One could almost refuse to believe it were it not for the testimony of such aclond of respectable witnesses. After a brief inspec- tion of the Turkish troops and the Bosnian Mussulmans who are aiding in suppressing the msurrection I can believe anything. Such men asI have seen would do anything, and they are certainly well provided with weapons for the carrying out of any bloody design which they may desire to undertake, POPE LARCHO, Pope Larcho is one of the main stays of the insurreo- tion now, If he falls, the troubles both in Bosnia and Herzegovina will be considerably abated, {f not entirely quelled. He is a kind of Peter the Hermit, preaching a crusade with such eloquence and the force of his own example. By the way, it is only a short distance above Beigrade, on the Danube, where Peter, the renowned hermit, actually did preach his famous sermons to the soldiers of the first crusade. The rock whence phi- lippies were once fulminated against the infldel now serves as the foundation of a huge State prison and a garrison of 3,000 soldiers which the gov- ernment finds it @nventent to maintain on tho mili- tary confines of Sclavonia, To return to Pope Larcho, there 1s no doubt whatever that he receives both aid and comfort from Servia and that the hardy volunteers now leaving Belgrade will flock in great numbers around his standard. He is one of the apostles of Ser- vian unity. He has dimly conceived in his own mind the idea of a great State in which all the peoples of the same general type, even including the Bulgarians, shall be joined for mutual protection. Larcho knows that the Turks will kill him if they catch him, and he will do his best not to engage in any general battle, either in Bosnia or Herzegovina, but to harass the Turks and cause them grievous loss perpetually. This is now the main object of the insurgents. They will do their best to keep up the struggle in an frregular and desultory fashion until the sympathies of Europe are really aroused and the arms which they so bitterly need are furnished them. Then even the fugitive rayahs may be induced to return from their refuges in Austria and strike the crowning blow, Perhaps the Servian government may short time forced to be lax in the matter of granting ‘arms to those who apply for them. The peasants who have been here for the last few days en- deavoring to get weapons are loud in thoir murmurs of dissatisfaction, louder than can possibly be agreeable to the occupants of the pretty tittle palace on the Theresia. I had an instance this evening of the careful manner in which the person of the present Prince is guarded, I was returning, in company with Dr. Long, of England, a well known Oriental scholar, and Mr. Meissner, tho accomplished assistant librarian at Belgrade, from a call on tho ox- Minister of Finance, Mijatowico (a man of un- common energy and talent), and we found tho pavement in tho street so very bad that we clam- | bered on to the narrow sidewalk, which was a little better, only a short distance from ono of the gateways of the palace, Instantly asotdier on guard at the gato cried “Halt!” and naturally enough we halted, He then made us leave the sidewalk and again take tho middle of the street, crying out—so said my com- panions—“What do you want that you come eo near|’? We laughed, which drow forth a loud and angry threat, but wo proceeded homeward without farther-adventure, pisdnkinstshedatohticatatry CONGREGATIONAL CONVENTION. eee ‘The General Congregational Association of this State will have its annual meeting at Norwich, N.

FURTHER EVIDENCE OF CORRUPTION—A LARGE PROPORTION OF THE CONSTITUENCY SAID TO BE PURCHASABLE. , [From the London Standard, October 7.) ‘The Commissioners continued their inquiry this morning, } Mr. J. W. Gilbert, Conservative agent, being recalled, stated that he did not caution any of the voters em- ployed in the election that if they voted they would be guilty of a misdemeanor. He was not aware of any outstanding accounts on either side, The conservative Dill of costs for the petition against Mr, Tillett had not been sent in, because of the difficulty of getting an ap- pomtment during the long vacation for the purpose of taxation, but the bill would be lodged next week. It was all perfoctly in order, William Hook, landlord of the Old Friends Tavern, in Ber street, put on twenty-five men on the liberal side for two days at the last election, They were paid 23 6d. per day, and were employed for the purpose of pro- tecting the band ip the procession. Mr. J. Wutten Brown, a magistrate and a conserva tive in politics, expressed an opinion that 3,000 of the 13,000 voters in the constituency were corruptible, and that so long as the “residuum” were allowed to vote there would be no pure election in Norwich, unless the existing system was entirely swept away. An election might be fairly fought for £2,000, but he did not accept the estimate of one witness that £500 would be sufficient; did not believe that if the expenditure was limited the corruptible section would start a third candidate, If both parties could agree to an understanding to avoid corruption, and to prosecute all who resorted to it, no matter on which side they might be found, perhaps’ special legis- lation would not be necessary; but still he thought it would be an advantage even then to get rid of the pres- ent system. It was exceedingly creditable to Mr. Tillett that "he had proposed to work his election without nts, as he stated by Mr, Smith yesterday, but, as the Commissioners had heard, his supporters would not per- mit him to do it, Mr. Stevens, the liberal agent, was again examined, and explained how it was that Gardner, the rag mer- chant, had a special committee room in 1874, He was an outsider, and directions were giyen to the ward managers in the Seventh ward to keep him out of tho committee room, and then he engaged one of his own. They were not responsible for that, Believing that in 1874 too many persons had been employed, he gave ex- tra cautions to the ward managers at the last election, saying, “No more cats than will catch mice’’—meaning that they would have no more men than could have work todo. He still thought the managers, although the employment had been excessive, had not tried to get votes dishonestly There were no outstanding ac- counts so far us he knew. He believed he should have } no further claims, Samuel H. Wiley, publican and shopkeeper, deposed | that a few 's before the 1874 election Mr. Coaks sent for him and asked him to get voters to vote for Stras- | sey and Huddleston, or for Colman and Huddleston, to keep ‘that fellow Tillett out,” He promised to pay whatever expense witness might incur, Witness bought | some twenty or thirty men, who looked like bricklayers or laborers, at 5s. per head, They said they would not vote unless paid, Mr. Coak said afterward: thet he ciated what had been done, and would make it all y and by. ‘The Commissioners adjourned until the afternoon of next Wednesday. THE BALAKLAVA BANQUET, i PREPARATIONS FOR CELEBRATING THE TWENTY- FIRST ANNIVERSARY OF THE CHARGE OF THE LIGHT BRIGADE, [From the London Daily Telegraph, Oct. 5, 1875.] Since the idea was mooted of assembling the survi- vors of the Balaklava Charge at dinner on the 25th inst., the twenty-first anniversary of the event, only eighty have made their existence known to tho committee, Of the “noble 600 198 returned, and, therefore, it is believed that the number of survivors is greater than eighty, and that communications from others have yet to be received, Many of the survivors are, fortu nately, so circumstanced as that they can bear their share in the expe: are unable to aiford to pay for dinner and for railway fare. It is hoped, however, that the railway companies will convey the gallant men to town free of i | | | charge. Tne place for the meeting will be decided upon at the committee meeting on Wednesday (to- morrow) at the Prince of Wales’ Tavern, Vik liers street, Strand. A member of Parliament ‘has | kindly offered to provide as much champagne as may | be required to ‘gladden the hearts of those whom England may delight to honor,” and his offer has been pted. Mr. Pennington, the actor, who was in the | charge of the Light brigade, will be present at the din- ner, if his engagements permit, and will recite Tenny- son’s poem. The chair will be taken by Mr. Woodham, of the Eleventh (Prince Albert’s Own) Hussars, the chairman of the committee, who has been most ener- | getic in forwarding tho preliminary arrangements, It | sufficient funds are forth¢oming to warrant such a step | the committee desire to invite the company of the poct | laureate, the French and Russian military attachés, | Dr. Ruséell and other Crimean war correspondents, Miss | Nightingale and Mrs. Cresswell, who accompanied one of the brigade regiments in the Bulgarian expedition, | We have tu acknowledge a donation of £10 from tho | Countess of Cardigan, widow of the late Earl, who was | Colonel of the Eleventh Hussars and the Major General cominanding the brigade in the charge; one guinea from.

SENTENCE OF YOUNG KUCHEL—WOODRUFF, THE RAILROAD DEFAULTER, RELEASED ON BAT. {From the San Francisco Chronicle, Oct. 10.] In the Municipal Court yesterday Charles J. Kuchel, the young stock clerk of Dr. Fox, who pleaded guilty | toone chargo of embezzlement, was called up for sen- tence, Ho was questioned by his attorney, Mr. Taylor, | and related that ho was but eighteen years of age—had been eightcen on the Sist of May last. He had given his age as twenty years to the insurance agents becauso they h#® told him that it was better. He had no iu- | tention to commit any crime when he used the stock of his employer, and before he was arrested had reccived information that he was discovered, and had several opportunities to escape of which he did not take ad- -vantage, : Ho first entered the servico of Dr. Fox about eighteen months ago. He was engaged as delivery clerk at a salary of $30a month, After some time ho was promoted to’ the post of stock clerk and his salary | increased to $60a month. He first commenced to take | the stock about six months ago, but he had no inten- | tion of stealing it, He intended to replace it, but ho was unfortunate in his speculations, A week beforo | his arrest he sent his mother and sister to Europe, | They are now in Germany. He made restitution of everything he had in his possession to Dr. Fox, Dr, Fox and his bookkeeper, James Gillan, testified to the amount ($60,000) which the young man had sto- | and gave an explanation how it was done. The | | stock the prisoner took was all California. One thou- | sand shares in all were taken, worth atthe time $55 | pershare. Dr, Fox learned of the embezzlement in the early part of July. A broker told him that ho had | received some California stock to sell, which was sent | to him in an envelope in a most irregular manner, On | examining his stock he miseed the shares, and after. ward succeeded in tracing them to several brokers? | oflices. The amount of property he received in resti | tution from the prisoner was worth $1,630, and he may recover $5,000 in all. Kuchel turned over to him two | horses, one of which he sold for $165 and_the other for $300; acarriage which brought $125, 100 shares of South Mountain worth $300, a gold watch and a policy of insurance for $10,000. He also turned over $1,500, which he had given to bis sister, and which is lodged in the French Savings Bank, but the bank declines to pay it, a it does not stand in’ Kuchel’s name. The Judge, after a few explanatory remarks, sen- tenced the young man to San Quentin for five years, Another indictment which was standing against him was dismissed on motion of the District Attorney. A. R. Woodruff, alias Jobn Miller, the railroad de- faulter, against whom there are four indictments for | embezzlement, was yesterday released on bail, The | total amount of his bail is $65,000, the bondsmen being | as follows:—Charles Geddes (architect), 8. M. Foster, (hotel keeper) and Louts Winter (farmer), of Sacramento, $10,000; same bondsmen, $5,000; Louis Winter, William evens (contractor), C. H. Leavitt (blackstaith), J. B, Piper (brick dealer), A. K. Hawking and Thomas Day (dealers in gas fixtures), $25,000; with the same bonds- men, $25,000, Miller has fared excellently well while he bas beon in prison, having becn allowed to remain in the City Prison where a cell had been Atted up with furniture, He was taken outto dine or bathe when- | ever he desired, an officer being especially detailed to care for his particular interests. BROOKLYN BURGLARS. The residence of Mr. George H. Wheelock, No. 552 | Bergen street, was entered on Saturday night by burg- lars and robbed of $70 worth of jewelry. Burglars also visited tho dwelling house of Mr. Sloan, No. 49 Ross street, and stole a quantity of wearing ap- parel, A hundred dollars’ worth of property was carriod away by burglars from the house of Mr. Leonard A. Strange, 198 South Ninth street, on Saturday night, A SUGGESTION TO THE POLICE, A “Subscriber” writes to the Heranp, complaining that within a few days there have been four largo wooden ash boxes and one barrel stolen from in front of his residence, It is more than probable that they have beon stolen by boys, who are now Abe ral | for tho usual celebration upon the night of election day. ‘Subscriber’ complains that the polico are not watchful, and it certainly seems likely that if they were vigilant they could prevent such bold but tty thefts as those alluded to, It would be well tor the polieo to raid upon tho places in each precinct wherein boxes and barrels which have been purloined boys are stored, Although all the vessels have their $ c. morrow.

Fiftieth Anniversary of. the Iron Horse at Darlington. The Lord Mayor of London and Other Celebrities Present. JOSEPH PEASE’S STATUE. ? * Contrasting the Past with the Present. Dan.ivGtoy, Eng., Sept. 28, 1875, Thore {s something very appropriate about the quiet, orderly way in which the descendants of the unob- trusive and persistent inventors to whom the world owes so much have celebrated tho fiftieth anniversary of the opening of the first railway in England, Ina manner much like unto that in which William Penn de- veloped the resources of Pennsylvania have these Quaker people of Durham opened up any quantity of “new worlds” to civilization. They began in a do- termined way; they carried their cause through Parlia- ment by the most persistent effort; they surveyed the railway routes across the meadows of Durham and Yorkshire at the point of the bayonet, or, to speak more accurately, at the point of the pitchfork, for there 4s no evidence to show that the worthy Friends resorted to any other offensive or defensive weapons, The theo- ries of Stephenson and Pease were laughed at; the ac- tual work was carried on over all sorts of obstacles and through all manner of legal difficulties, Tho first rail was laid while the whole of England looked on and laugned, The last spike was driven in the presence of gaping, grinning gang. Tho first engine started in full view of a great multitude, more than half of whom had come ‘to see the machine break down.’” Stephenson and Pease regarded the journey to Stock- ton as a remarkable achievement of human ingenuity. Yet both were laughed at whon they prophesied that a speed ten miles an hour could be obtained. Fastidious gentlemen of leisure, like Mr, Ruskin, of those days, insisted that tho introduction of steam would destroy all the romance in this life, and that thoy would rather spend four or five days in a stago coach between Darlington and London than to be transported over the distance in five hours. It is worthy of remark, how- ever, that just such men were the first to accommodate themselves to the new mode of travelling just as soon as it was fairly introduced. From this experiment has grown up a better commerce, a better civilization, and with it has followed progressive journalism. The railway and the newspaper were soon allied, as tho former became the means of bringing to the latter that strangely indefinite article of merchandise called “news,” and then again of spreading the printed pages ia which the work of the news gatherer was utilized, The clectric telegraph has greatly trenched upon this branch of the railway’s occupation, but the introduc from the north, east, wost and south has become a fea- fully as important an event and as well worthy the pen of a poct as Sheridan’s gallop from Winchester. PREJUDICE AND BIGOTRY. tion of lightning expresses for the distribution of the information which the telegraph has gathered together ture and necessity of modern journalism, So it will be seen that to the railway journalism owes too great eof the banquet, but the majority’| a debt to cast it off at this late day. All will recall the famous races of the New York newspaper press to ob- tain and print the first news from Europe at the time ‘war was threatened betweon England and America on the Oregon question, and how on ono occasion the loco motive dashed over the Long Island Railroad faster than it had ever done before or has ever done sincep bearing | the news to the Hrraxp, distancing vy hours all its rivals, Mr. Frederick Hutson graphically tells the story of that ride, which in more than one respect was ‘The crowd of working people and farmers who came together at Darlington on the occasion of the inaugura- tion of the railway, now fifty years ago, formed an assembly very strangely incontrast with the select and carries 240 gallons of water and All the machinery of the locomotive is on the to) sides of the boiler, and from the front projects racelul curve the “smokestack.” Tho gauge is 34 inches, that being the width of the tramways used in ‘the coal mines before Stephenson was born, au strauge to gay, it is the gauge retained on the gr majority of the railways of the world.

Darlington was rich in flags, festoons of flowers, strings of lamps, gas devices, crowns, wreaths, escutcheons, triumphal arches and the thou- sand and one indications of happy hearts and homes. Special trains began to arrive belore daylight, and at nvon not less than 40,000 visitors were added to the population of Darlington, ‘A procession of the railway employés was formed | after noon, There were loyal sons of Vulcan and sons of temperance—whether loyal or not was to be best proved by tapping a keg of whiskey or beer. The pro- cession then proceeded to the railway station to meet Lord Mayor Stone, of London, who arrived with all his Waldegrave Lesie, the Dean of Durham and Sir H. and Lady Havelock. The procession then started back to | the market place to witness the unveiling of a statue to the late Joseph Pease, M. P., who chainpioned the railway in Parliament, and was the first Quaker ever sent to that body. ‘The houses fronting upon the square were crowded. Here the Duke of Cleveland Joined the throng, and, descending from his curriage stepped up to the monument, said—“I ask that this statue be formally unveiled.” ‘The statue was then laid bare amid the wildest expressions of joy. The Duke of Cleveland followed in a very appropriate speech, and closed by presenting the biatue, on behalf of the sub- seribers, to the town of Darlington, Alderman Luck received the gift on behalf of the city. THE STATUB isnino feet high, Joseph Pease {s represented as a man of about flity years of age and is in modern cos- tume. He stands bolt upright, his left hand resting by his side and his right arm thrust into his waistcoat and across his breast, in the attitude familiar to him when he was about to ‘make a hit in oue of those manly, direct speeches for which he had acquired a name. His head is bare and the hair is brushed back ina deflant style. The rugged lineaments of the face, the deter- mined stare, the genuine English cut ef the whiskers, | } the very paletot and the old-fashioned seal hanging | down from under his vest, are all characteristic of the man as he bore himself in life, and the like- ness—which was taken from a picture ‘painted from a | photograph—is so good that the wonder js that so admirable a counterfeit presentment could be made | by a sculptor who had never met him in thi statue is clevated on a square pedestal base; the upper portion is of red Aberd | polished, with bronze panels, and the lower of gray | granite unpolished. The panels are adorned with | bassi-relievi, illustrating remarkable phases in tho career of the deceased. On one he is shown in the House of Commons, talking to Lord Palwerston and | surrounded by a group of members. The likenesses of | Sir Francis Burdett, “Joe” Hume and others can be distinctly recognized. In another, illustrative of his | efforts in the cause of education, a number of Sunday | school children at class are cleverly reproduced. ‘The 4hird panel is devoted to his commercial and manufac- turing labors, and railway engines, ships and other emblems of progress are exhibited, and in the fourth, which is the most artistic of all, a number of emanci- pated negro slaves are powerfully depicted, rendering thanks to those who struck olf their fetters, The iq en granite, Her rems be taken to Little Compton, Rhode Island, by Monday boat, for interment, Bynpsaut.—On Friday morning, October 15, at four o'clock, Mr. F.

THE JOURNEY PROM LONDON was made by way of the Great Northern Railway route, through the most uninteresting piece of country I have yet encountered in the whole of England. The ride to York, through Peterborough and Doncaster, is so devoid of picturesque scenery that the tired passenger counts the time as wasted when he was not asleep, About an hour suffices to transport us from York to Darlington—still tothe northward. This quiet Quaker town has been very much maligned by guide books; but it stands ona level plateau overlookmg the sur- rounding country and made up of a succession of well paved aud closely built streets, The town 13 very com- pact; and although the last census gave it a population of 27,729 it hardly equals extent of its “ground plan’ our New York State villages of 4,000 or 6,000. Yet here are located the engine works. and the repair shops of the Northeastern Railway. The dwelling houses are, for the most part, of clean looking red and yellow brick, but here and there crops out an old house dating far behind the days of railways and railway jubilees. For more than a week every house owner and tenant has No household so poor but has invested largely in Chineso lanterns and gas fittings for transparencies; no street so shabby but its | residents have decorated it with arches of green and streamers of blazing red bunting. The whole was a gala occasion such as the quiet people of Darlington hover dreamed of in the olden time. THE GROWTH OP TUK LOCOMOTIVE. It was an eminently proper and fitting idea for the Stockton and Darlington Railway Company to make a collection of all the forms of locomotive engines, and to | have thom on exhibition on this occasion. As the pio- neer company thoy already possessed the first locomo- Through the kinduess of the secretary of the company | I, in company with a London correspondent, was ad- | mitted to a private view of this interesting collection on Sunday, There are twenty-six locomotives sent for exhibition by various railway companies of Great Brit- ain, which show at a glance the several gradations | through which the fron horse has passed since the first attempt of George Stephenson. Side by side stand the historical ‘Locomotion’? and “No, 1,068," the former small and apparently fragile, the ‘latter the very newest, strongest, healthiest of his race, It has often been a matier of curiosity to me how the in- ventor should have struck upon the right shape for *he boiler, the position of the driving wheels and the loca. tion of the engineer, By the right shape I must be enderstood to mean the Shape which it has been deemed. best to retain through tifty years of trial. Why the first locomotive boiler was not spherical or square prob- ably no living man can exactly explain, Sir Isaac Newton, who probably planted the seed froin which locomotives grew, proposed to construct a spherical steam generator on whoels, with a seat for a passenger in frontand along pipe or tube extending from the boiler behind, The escape of the steam from this pipe would, he held, prope! the carriage in an opposite direc- tion in manner similar to the recoil of a cannon, Stephenson’s great idea was tho utilization of the eylin- der and the crank movement. Here, then, under one roof was ocularly told the whole story of tho steam engine as applied to railways. In one place stands @ locomotive which has travelled the amazing distance of 330,000 miles. Whether this will exceed the number of miles traversed by Joo Wood’s famous engino, whose reputation as a fast traveller has reached this side of the water, I am un- able to state, THR FIRST ENGINE stands near her, She is inounted on a bed of masonry, 80 that her wheels do not touch the rails—the origin fish -bollied rails of cast iron, fastened by oak treenails to stone blocks embedded in ballast, There were no “tes”? in those old times, and it is no longer marvel- lous that the gaugo was somotimes lost, 80 that “Locomotion” went off the line, These oak treenails, too, it was found expanded when saturated by the rain, and invariably split the stone blocks, to George Sto] son's sad discomfture, The ine and tender is 24 feet; ber 18 63 tons, The pressure of Is, Which are connected by welded metal exist, For this reason thero is much greater interest attaching to the presont occasion than there possibly can be toany future one, Thereare prosent many living witnesses of the early struggles against silly prejudice in the | tive, and they had plenty of the Intest patterns on hand. | Fon dais 3g isusee L Relainsn ang Q G.; Sir Harry Vernoy, Bart.; Lord Wenlock; sir H, Waterlow, Bart., M.’P.; Sir.
