Tho burial was to bave taken place during the present weok, but an elec- tion is pending in which the government is trying to secure for its candidate the French Roman Catholié vote, and for that purpose the matter was put off, not. withstanding that the colonels of all,the volunteer corps in the city were warned to hold themselyos in readiness on Monday last, SENSIBLE STRIKERS, A STRIKE AND STOPPAGE OF MILLS AVERTED-~ WISE POLICY OF THE OWNERS OF THE AQurip~ NECK MILL, Newronrt, R. 1, Oct. 26, 1875, ‘What promised to be a strike and shut-down of a mill was happily averted to-aay, Two weeks ago tho mill owners here gave their operatives notice that they would be compelled on ‘and after October 26 to pay them twenty-five cents per cut instead of twenty-nine cents, No fault w&s found with this decision and all went in yesterday under the new arrangements, they being aware of the fact that, with the cat down, they were to Teceive one cent per cut more than is paid in Fall Rivpr, and several cents more than is paid throughout Rhode Island, At noon seventy weavers left their looms in tho Aquidneck Mill, but the mill owners pursued a wise policy at once, and Jast night sent word to them to the effect that the mill would be kept open for them a reas- onable longth of time, and that all could return. All but fifteen of the .strikers" were only too glad to go to work this morning, and those who remained out held a meeting this forenoon and decided to go in; aiso provided those | among them who had been the ringleaders wero also allowed to resume work as well. They were politely informed that ali could come in, and, in view of this commendable act, they promptly kept their word, and the mili is now running the same as usual, aud no fur- ther trouble is éxpected, A CITY DESTROYED Virginia City, Nevada, Burned Up and Swept Away. ESTIMATED LOSS EIGHT MILLIONS. Five Thousand People Destitute and Without Homes, Saw Francisco, Oct, 26—9:30 A. M, Great fire in Virginia City, Nev. Everything north of Taylor street is burned. The branch Bank of California, the Virginia and Truckee Railroad buildings, Consolidated Virginia Works, including everything— hoisting works and machinery. The fire is still spread. ing rapidly. The telegraph wires are all down, ESTIMATED LOSS EIGHT MILLIONS. San Francisco, Cal., Oct. 26, 1875, Aspecial to the California Ala says:—The Ophir Works are totally destroyed. All the principal business portion of the town is gone, and very many of the finest residences, A space half a mile by three-quarters is burned over, Two men were killod this after- noon by a falling wall, There was a tremen- dous gale blowing all the forenoon, and but little could be done. One steamer and a Babcock engine were burned, The estimated loss will probably reach $8,000,000, Hundreds of people are utterly des- titute and hundreds of men have been’ thrown out of employment, The Catholic, Presbyterian and Episco- palchurches are destroyed. The other churches and school houses are thrown open for the sufferers. The city authorities and citizens are doing all they can, but the ruin is fearful, "The city looks as though it had been blasted by both fire earthquake. ‘Tho most ghastly sight in the city is the tremendous machinery of the mills and hoisting works, standing out like spectres in the smoke, There are many sick in the city, and many touching sights were witnessed. Among the storm of fire the scene from the heights this morning was most terrible; notels, churches, mills, hoisting works, newspaper offices, Opera House, busi- ness stores and residences presented the appearance of ascaof fire, The wind blew a gale and sometimes in whirlwind, Explosion followed explosion in rapid and succession, ‘THE EFFECT IN SAN FRANCISCO. San Francisco is seriously injured by the Virginia fire, The Stock Board this forenoon was panicky. A heavy decline was manifest along the whole list. The following are the comparative prices of the prin cipal stocks yesterday and to-day — Consolidated Virginia, 220 California. ... +++. 55 OphiP...eesseees: 89 Gould & Curry....- 20 4 At noon it was reported that the fire turned south- ward, running up the hill. The Wells-Fargo building reported burned is safo, and atthis momenta telegram says the flames are under con- trol. The Enterprise office is consumed, also the Catho- lic church on D street; the Gould & Curry shaft, on which so much depended for the immediate working of that and other mines, is reported safe, No éstimate can be formed of the loss, but it amounts to millions in property actually destroyed and in retard- ing the working of tho mines, With all that wealth can command, it will be many months before the Bonanzas are put in the working order that they were in yesterday, A stream of water burst in upon the Virginia Consolidated yesterday, on the 1,500 level, and to-day there aru250 feet of water in the mine. Now, with allthe pumping machinery destroyed, there can be no ‘estimate of the damage done by the water to that great mine. Many buildings were blown up, but on tho east and north nothing stopped or checked the flames until there was nothing to feed upon, It looks now as though people were generally bankrupt, and it will take a long time for the city to recover from the disaster. The only portion of the city saved 1s/that from Wells, Fargo & Co.’s, which includes the works of the Gould & Curry, Savage, Hale & Nor- cross and Chollar, but these works are just now working _with few men, on account of water in the mines, There are 4,000-or 5,000 destitute people who have to find homes for tho winter’outside of Virginia City, for what was this morning Virginia City is now but aruin. Ina single sentence, we are in the midst of a calamity so fearful that the strongest minds cannot yet realize its dreadful magnitude. COTTON MILL BURNED. Harrvorp, Conn., Oct. 26, 1875, The Valley Cotton Mill, in Stafford, was burned last night. Loss; $25,000; partially insured. FUNERAL OF MR. CARRUTH. TOUCHING TRIBUTE OF RESPECT TO THE DE " PARTED EDITOR, VINELAND, Oct. 26, 1875, ‘The scene at tho Unitarian church in this town this afternoon, while the body of Mr. Carruth lay in state, was one Which emphatically settles the standing of the dead editor in this community, The announcement that the body would be exposed to the gaze of his friends between the Hours of one and three o'clock this afternoon caused the congregation of a large num- ber of ladies and gentlemen at the door of the little church some time before the hour appointed for the arrival of the remains. At a few minutes after one the body, enclosed in a neat walnut coffin, bearing the usual inscription of name, age and date of death, was taken from the home so lately made doso- late and placed in @ hearse, under the care of Vine- land Grange No. 11, Patrons of Husbandry, the Mas- ter of the grange, F. Van Valen, having charge of tho arrangements, and carried to the church, about one mile distant from the Carruth home in the Railroad boulevard, The members of the family did not ac- company it; Mrs. Carruth for the reason that she is too ill to leave her bed, her condition being considered very dangerous, The five children of this stricken family were to leave with the body on the train which would convey it to Clinton, N. Y., Mr, Carruth’s tive place, and wero to meet it at the Vineland depot, AT THR CHURCH. Arrived at the church tho body was carried rever- ently to the dais in front of the pulpit, the wreaths and other floral tributes laid aside and the lid removed, leaving expose” the pale, calm features, on which sut- fering had left its seal. ‘About 500 people were within and abyut the doors of the church, a very large gather- ing for a small country place. While the organ played a subdued dirge the visitors, in orderly and quiet manner, without the assistance of ushers or other direction, fled slowly up one aisle, gazed upon the face of the dead, and passed down another pi way. After a large number had viewed the body, of them stooping to kiss the cold lips and betraying much emotion, the throng was temporarily stopped [er asked to take the few seats remaining uioceupted, nen A REMARKABLE SCENE occurred. Brother Jonathan Wilde, one of the mem- | bers of the Patrons of Husbandry grange to which | Mr. Carruth belonged, about seventy-five members of which were present, rose with asad’ face, In a voice faitering with emotion he announced that the family were Woo much borne down with sorrow to participate at that time in any funeral services over Mr. Carruth, It had therefore been agreed that none should tike Hors at that time and place, in respect to their wishes, Butasa member of the Order to which the dead had belonged, he could not resist trying to express his love for that martyred brother. He continued in an elo- queut tribute to the deceased, and was followed by other moimbers of the grange in the samo strain, At three o'clock the body was taken to the depot escorted by a band of music a an a dirgo, ach started for Clinton, N. ¥.. in care of friends, CENTRAL AND SOUTH AMERICA, END OF THE COLOMBIAN REVOLUTION— THE PRESIDENT OF PANAMA PLACED UNDER ARREST AND A PROVISIONAL GOVERNMENT APPOINTED, Panama, Oct. 17, 1875. A small schooner arrived here on the th inst., and brought news from Yavisa, in Darien, thata body of 300 cancheros or collectors of rubber had been attacked | and defeated by the Indians living on the upper aflluents of the Chucunaque. The Indians had for some time back appeared so friendly to the cancheros, and niade 80 little objection to their carrying on that industry in their forests, as to allay all suspicion that any treachery on their part was meant, A proposal was made to the leader of the body of can- cheros living at the new village of Cruz, situated in front of the Morti branch, to go and show him where the rubber abounded in the fagests of Mort. Upon this an expedition was formed, consisting of at least 800 men. One part, of 100 men, went to explore the banks of the river Tanque up to its headwaters, and the remainder left Guala, divided into four parties, On the 28th of September the party that went ahead was led into a narrow place, between two hills, and when there a heavy fire was opened on them from the neighboring fofest. Tho second and third parties pushed on and took part in the fray, ‘The fourth party became frightened and ran off, so de- moralizing the whole party that the rout became gen- eral. The alarm came to Cruz with the fugitives, Many ofthe residents there packed up and fled down tbe river. Tho loss is estimated at some fifty-cight in killed and wounded, besides those stragglers in the woods likely to be cut off by the Indians. This news is the more distressing because it deprives the mer- chants of the chief article of export from Panama, and has added terribly to the already depressed state of the trade in general on the Isthmus. A great demand has lately sprang up for iagua or ivory nuts, which abound on, the‘ Isthmus and may help a littl The government genorally is too much taken up in getting money to pay soldiers to keep itself in power, but there is no doubt that a small force stationed at Yavisa, might have had the effect of deterring the Indians and keeping the cancheros in order. It is hard to say how this great evil is now to be remedied. It is believed that the tribes on the Pacific side of the Cordilleras were aided by those who live along the Atlantic, ARRIVAL OF NATIONAL TROOPS, The national troops, so long and anxiously expected and feared, from Bogota, arrived on the 11th inst at Aspinwall in the steamship Henry Chauncey, to the number of 400 mon, under the orders of Goneral Camargo, the commander-in-chief of the Atlantic forces of the Army of Colombia, After addittonal cars had been brought from Panama the troops were sent across and arrived here in the evening. A great crowd mot the train as it was entering the station and shouted wivas for General Camargo. Genoral Cavieoso acted for the general government, One half of the troops, about two hundred men, marched up into the city. The re- mainder stopped at the station to guard the park of ar- tillery, &c. General Camargo took rooms in the Grand Central Hotel, where President Arosemena came to sce him, No official explanation was given to the public as to the nature of the mission of General Camargo, nor did he communicate at all with the State government, THE STATE PRESIDENT ARRESTED. Before the arrival of the national troops the previous government had despatched some 150 militia to hunt up Seiior Aizpuru, who had pronounced against it and pro- claimed a provisional government, with himself as chief. The militia have not yet returned to Panama, On the night of the 11th Sefior Aizpurn, with his forces, entered the suburbs and intimated to President Arose- mena that he must resign, giving him till noon of the next day. On the 12th inst, General Camargo intimated to President Arosemena that he must consider’ himself a __ pris- ouer in his own house, which the latter declining to do, two officers of the National Guard were sent to arrest him and take him to the barracks, which was done, and there he remains, The national troops at the same time occupied the barracks of tne State militia and dis- armed the soldiers found there, THE PROVISIONAL GOVERNMENT, A provisional government, composed of the following gentlemen, was proposed :—President, Rafael Aizpuru; Secretary of State, Damaso Cervera; Secretary of Ha- cienda, Francisco Jimenez Arze; Governor of the City, J. A. Dier; Chief of Police, Nicolas Remon, and Prefect ‘of Aspinwall, C. Cervera. ‘The following are the considerandos upon which Gen-~) eral Camargo upset the government :— GENERAL CAMARGO’S PROCLAMATION, From General Camargo to President Arosemena, ‘The undersigned, Generai-in-Chief of the Army of the Republic:— Considering that federal order in the Republic has been declared interrupted on account of acts decreed and put in force by the government of some of the States of the Union. Among those particularly to be noted is the State of Panama, in repeatedly insisting on such a course, notwithstanding having received from the federal Executive unmistakable proofs of its being animated with the strongest feelings and desires for conciliation, Considering that although the present President of the State of ’anama is not the same citizen who issued such decrees, still it is evident to all the world that it is the same government under another name; seeing that it has tntrusted the command of its militia and named for Secretary of the government the same per- sons who authorized the acts of rebellion of its prede- cossor. Considering that after all this the legal régime not only is powerless to offer guarantees of respect to the President of Panama, although called on by the institn- tions to be their guardian; on the contrary that func- tionary would be amenaco and a serious threat to them, Considering that the executive power of tho Union, being virtually deprived of its agent in Panama, ac- cording to the constitution, could never be sure that the laws would be fulfilled, except in the presence of an armed force capable of rendering any attempt at con- spiracy an impossibility, Resolves to declare a8 an enemy of the general gov- ernment the actual President of the State of Panama; to notify him that he is under arrest and demand that he should disarm his forces and deliver up all elements of war. Let it be forwarded, Given in Panama, at headquarters, on the 12th of October, 1875. SERGIS CAMARGO, UNITED STATES SHIPS READY. The United States ships of war here and at Aspin- wall remained quietly at anchor, but prepared to act at @ moment's notice if circumstances arise to require their interference, OFFICIAL DECREES. The Gaceta de Panama of the 16th inst. has made its appearance replete with official acts and documents of the provisional government that actually rules the country. Among the decrees js one organizing a State military force; ordering a forced loan of $30,000 to bo collected in the State, $10,000 at Panama and the rest in the five other departments of $4,000 each; and appointing Don Pedro Goitia commander of the State forces, CHILI. OPENING OF THE INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION. ‘The International Exhibition was opened at Santiago with great pomp on the 16th of September by the Prosident of the Republic, accompanied by the minis- ters and other high authorities, civil and military. The President, on taking bis seatin the pavilion built for the inauguration ceremonies, was addressed by Seiior Larrain Moxo, the President of the Exhibition, to which His Excellency replied and afterwards declared the Ex- hibition opened. He then proceeded to visit all the saloons and annexes. A great many packages were still unopened. The whole Exhibition, though very splendid, was not considered so great a success as it might have been. Several crocodiles have been sent from Ecuador to the Chili Exhibition. The Talca Railroad was opened on the 16th of Sep- tember with great énthusiasm, PERU. THE FINANCIAL SITUATION UNSATISFACTORY— TROUBLES EXPECTED AT THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION, PANAMA, Oct, 17, 1876. ‘The nows to the 6th inst. from this Republic was still of an unsatistactory nature as regards financial matters, The contract. for the sales of guano in Paris had not been confirmed, The recent loan to the government by the banks had given some relief The works on the railroads had been suspended. Many discharged work- men were giving trouble to the police, and beggars swarmed in the streets, while the banks refuse all dis, count, The new guano beds are to be again surveye The electoral struggles promise to end in riots and bloodshed, The chance, however, of being elected seoms to rest with Admiral Montero, WASHINGTON, GENERAL WASHINGTON DESPATCHES. Wasuixeroy, Oct. 26, 1875. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE UNITED STATES TREAS- URER. The annual report of United States Treasurer New shows that out of a total nominal balance of $173,876,064 05 due to the United States by the Treas- urer on the 30th day of June, 1875, there were deducted “unavailable items” aggregating $29,094,075 95, the Principal item being $28,101,644 91, due from the States to the United States on account of transfer of deposits under act of Co: approved June 23, 1836, which is omitted from the statements of cash balance of the Treasury, but is carried, nevertheless, from quarter to quarter and from year to year in the ac- count of the Treasurer as rendered to the First Auditor of the Treasury. ‘The other ‘unavailable items” deducted were balance due at the outbreak of the rebellion from the United States-depository at Gal- Veston, Texas, and the branch mints at Charlotte, N.

It appears, therefore that there should be deducted from the cash balance as reported in the monthly debt statement of July 1, 1875, the total sum of $765,966 39, ‘The Treasurer says three years will probably elapse be- fore a final settlement of General Spinner’s accounts can be made, as many of them are outstanding and as the auditors and comptrollers cannot pass upon them before that time, The number of national banks organized, and which doposited security for circulation to July 1, 1876, was 2,155.

The $2,000 recently reported missing from the Treas- ury Department has not yet been recovered, and there is now no doubt that it was abstracted from one of the desks in the Redemption division, There have been no afrosts, COLORADO AMONG THE SISTERHOOD OF STATES, connection with the fact that an election for mem- bers to a convention to form a constitution and State government has just taken place in Colorado, it may nolibe generally known that such constitution as may beadopted by the people at an election in July next is to be duly certified to the President of. the United States, whereupon it is made his duty by law to issue, his proclamation declaring the State admitted into the Union on an equal footing with the original States without any further action whatever on the part of Congress.

EVANGELIZATION AMONG THE FREEDMEN—DRB, SPEER, OF PHILADELPHIA, AND THE CHINESE— CLOSING SCENES OF THE SYNOD. Scranton, Pa., Oct, 26, 1875, Contrary to the opinion of a large number of the reverend delegates, the eighty-seventh session of the ton last evening, after disposing of a great deal of important work. The greater part of the morning | Session was devoted to the discussion of a report pre- | sented by the Rev. W. B. Noble, on behalf of the Freedmen’s Committee, in which ‘the Synod enjoin on ail the churches t take upacoliection for the ireed men.” It was decided also to recommend the use of unfer- mented wine at the communion of the diflerent chureh The Synod took special action in reference to the zealous Dr. Speer, of Philadelphia, who for twelve years has been a missionary to Cnina, and only returned, to this country when his health began to fail, He was for some time editor of the Oriental, a newspaper printed on the Pacific coast, one-half in English and one-half in Chinese, and for the past ten years has acted as Secre- tary of the Board of Education in the Phi delphia Synod. Of late he has resolved on returning to his missionary, — labors among the Chinese, and resigned his position as Secretary of the Board on that actount. A series of resolutions were adopted regretting bis departure and wishing him ample success in his fleld of labor. His plan 48 to return to China in February, remain there a year and then come back to this country to prosecute his labors among the Asiatic emigrants coming here in such large numbers. He has been an active mem Synod during the session just closed and has many friends, ( After taking this action the Synod disposed of several matters of minor interest and at ten o’clock last night adjourned to meet in Philadelphia next year, JAY COOKE & CO.

Kimball, resident State Engineer, of this village, left his home about eight o’clock this morning, saying to his fainily that he was going to take a short walk. Not returning as soon as expected, fears were entertained regarding his whereabouts, and search being made, his body was found in the river, about a milo north of the village, with the mark of a large knife on each side of the neck, just below the ears, Temporary insanity is supposed to have been the cause of the act, bk ACCIDENT TO A TRAPEZIST, Cixcrxxatt, Oct, 26, 1875. A trapeze performer named Orzalo, in making a fly- ing leap at the National Theatre last night, missed the bar and fell to the stage, a distance of twenty feet, in- juring himselt severely, if not fatally. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. / THE FLAGSHIP WORCESTER HOMEWARD BOUND, ASPINWALL, U.S, C., Oct. 26, 1875. The United States steamer Worcester, flagship of the North Atlantic station, sailed from hore yesterday for Key West and Norfolk. AMUSEMENTS, WALLACK'S THEATRE, “The Overland Route’? was performed at this theatro last night to another of the large and delighted audi- ences that have attended it trom the first. The fine company of Mr. Wallack has admirable opportunity in this lively and entertaining drama. Messrs. Gilbert, Montague, Beckett, Shannon, Gwinette, Holland and Rosene, and Misses Ada Dyas, Kilie Germon and Ge- raldine’ Maye form an extraordinary combination of talent. The success of “The Overland Route’’ is so decided that there is no prospect of its withdrawal for the tare and several novelties are necessarily post- pone ‘THE WHITE-CERVANTES CONCERT. ‘The concert at Steinway Hall last evening by the White-Cervantes Company attracted a large audience, and was certainly carried out with spirit andseuthusi- asm. The programme contained selections from Verdi, Donizetti, Beethoven, Meyerbeer, Chopin, Rossini and other masters. Nothing could more clearly demon- strate the popular love for melody and music that may be interpreted by the many without the advantage of a musical education than this limited entertainment. The far reaching, gymnastic effort necessary to a concise rendering of Verdi and Rossini wero received with an almost painful silence, while a dozen bars of a rollicking, pleasing aria, such as Mass Thursby sang from ‘‘Dinorah,’”’ seemed to delight the whole audience and resulted in an immediate recall. The selections from Beethoven and Alkan performed by Mr. Cervantes were appreciated, not because they were interpreted as we have known them to be in concerto, but because the performer exhibited a certain rapidity of execution and a prudent facility for dealing with the few crescendo “melody passages in the pieces layed. In the first violin solo, a fantasie, by Mr. yhite, there was some genuine enthusiasm displayed. His aptitude in executing — long, chromatic and staccato passages from his ‘*Martha,’ and the great care he manifested in endeavoring to in- werpret Beethoven’s “Sonata op. 47,” with piano ac- cormpaniment, wero readily applauded, though in the lattor work ho only produced a shadow of the real, If for Beethoven, Beethoven is given, nothing would seem more appropriate than to present it in such entertain. ments, but with such insufficient material jt is simply impossible to produce the power and grandeur of this master’s works, When Mr, White introduced “Tne Last Rose of Summer” in his solo, he seemed to please everybody. When he played mere imitations there was no response. If these entertainments aro to suc- ceed, and there seems every reason why they shoul can énly be done by a more popular selection than that presented last night, DARLING'S OPERA HOUSE, The performances at Darhing’s Opera House in Twenty-third street, by Cotton and Reed’s-Minstrels, continue t9 attract good audiences, despite the multi- plicity of amusements in the city. This is not to be wondered at, as Messrs. Cotton and Reed are well known as eccentric comedians, and are general favor- {tes with the public. They have also gathered about them an excellent company of artists, whose perform. ances afford a diversified and amusing programme, Dan Bryant's cosey little house is now in good hands. As there are now only two minstrel companies in tho city, Cotton and Reed will no doubt reap the harvest their efforts deserve. MUSICAL AND DRAMATIC NOTES, Mile, Titions gives her last concert in Philadelphia to- night.
