FATAL CASUALTY. On Saturday afternoon,
about halEpast three O'clock as several laborers
were engaged In making an excavation In the rear
part of st. Josephs church, in Vikings alley, a
fatal accident occurred, resulting In the immediate
death Of Richard Nagle. The deceased, with Others
had been engaged during the day in wheeling the
loose dirt into the street. In digging, an old well
about sixteen feet in depth, was discovered, which
had been topped over with brick and EARTH The
laborers had TO pass over the well with their bar
rows with the loose earth. In making his last trip
the covering Of the well gave way, when Maggie fell
to the bottom, and on him his barrow of dirt, and
large stone, weighing about five hundred pounde
which was lying by the edge Of the well, together
with the barrow Of co-laborer who was following
immediately after him. Measures were soon taken to
extrica.c the unfortunate man, but some half hour

GREAT Loss or PRoPEETy-Rux0RED LOSS Oh LIFE.
From the Albany Express, July 3
We regret to learn that the Richmondville Union
Seminary is again in ashes. The fire broke out be
tween four and five o'clock on Friday afternoon. 1t
was first discovered between the oists and the roof
near the beliry. The main building was five stories
high, and upwards Of $50 feet long. The fire spread
with great rapdty, and was at once beyond reach
and rapidly consumed, the edifce being of wood
The students, numbering over 200 male aud female
escaped without injury. They saved the most Of
their effects. The building was new, having been
erected during the past year. II was first occupied
in October last. II was built in the most improved
style, at cost Of $4,000, portion Of which was
covered by insurancc-but to what extent, we did
Lot learn. This Is the second time this seminary
has been destroyed by fire. The first confagration
occurred in December, 1852, after having been occu
pied bat a few weeks. II was called the "Ricbmond.
vile Union seminary and Female Collegiate Insti.
tnte" II was established in October, 1882 under
the management of the Rev. J. J.. G.. McKown OF
the Methodist church. Since the commencement OF
the present quarter II has been under tho prcsi-
dency OF Prof G. III. Gardiner, A. NJ, aud up to the

find heap of ashes in the place Of where the hand
some seminary stood when he left. RchmondyiIlc
is in Sch0hare, a miles from this city, and IL
beautiful and lovely place. The seminary was own
cd by stock company. II Ia almost certain that
the fire was the work Of an incendiary.
We learned last evening from student Of the
seminary, that nearly all the books aud phiosophi-
cal apparatus OF the seminary, together with much
OF the clothing and other property Of the students,
were destroyed. He also reports that two of the
f,mte pupils were said TO have been burnt to DEATH
and That there were many narrow escapes. We
trust the rumorei loes Of lives Is incorrect.

ape the stocratic classes into whose circle they
are ambitious If entering, ut any sacrifice of the
simplicity that best suits the republican character
Now II men Of leisure in the United States, hav.
ing adequate income, choose to spend that income
abroad, we really cannot perceive on what ground
OF propriety there should be inquiston into their
habits and ode Of life, whether they choose Paris
OF Ne~ York for their place Of abode. These in
quietors would square every thing private and pub
lie, the social life OF the American traveller abroad,
equally with the costume of our ministers and con-
suls, by a standard Of which republican plainness
would be the peivading element. The number and
character OF the routes our countrymen might fire.
qnent, the classes with whom they might associate,
the opinions they might utter, must all conform t.
this standard of simplicity. Such inquisitors would,
no doubt, i, they had power. prescribe sumptuary
LAWS for indulgence, in home well as foreign lux
uries, In dress, entertainments, DC.
These things are not worthy Of notice and auimad-
version. Such Of our citizens as indulge In ex-
travaagant outlay In the capitals Of Europe, soon
pay the penalty of their extravagance, while such
as ape aristocratic manners can do no prejudice to
Our national character. They form very small
number Of the class who visit those capitals. We
have better reliance on the manlneB9 OF our cOun-
trymen than to suppose that they would sink it's
traits in the eiIeminacy, and become morally or
politically corrupt In the atmosphere of courts and
aristocratic circles. II they remain absentees when
their country is at war, and evadc the duties which
patriotism or public obligation enjoin, this, when
ever 1t occurs, would present q different phase Of
absenteeism. We have, however, no fear but what,
the summons Of their country, the absentees will
be ready to answer it, and share in any service for
which they may be wanted. We dislike the censor
ship that would subject to injurious suspicion those
who choose to exercise the privilege Of making their
residence and spending their money whore and how
they may elect Charleston Meas, June 80.

EXTRAORDINARY COUNTERPART CoIN.--Wc under
stand that under the instructions OF the Secretary
Of the Treasury, given some mouths sinco to the
mint Of the United States, to collect specimens OF
counterfeit coins in circulation for the purpose OF
examination and report, has lately been ivcd
OF a very gular character. IL purpors 10 be of
Mexican dollar, coined at the city Of Mexico in 1851.
Two pieces have been assayed, and give an average
fineGcss Of 776 thousandtbs, and consequent value
of ~ cents In silver; but, strange 10 say, the
amount of gold contained in them IL sufficient 20
add - cents TO the value Of each after paying the
charge OF separating, making net value Of 1884
cents and II to this the usual premium on silver is
added the worth OF this counterfeit coin u actually
100 cents The quality OF the silver 10 these dollars
proves them 70 be spurious Issue. There is also
an irreeulaity In the letters Mcxicana which Is re-
gardcd n test for throwing them out as we earn
from source familiar with them in Mexico where
they appear TO have had at times considerable cir
cnAtion. The silver produced by the Mexican mines
is understood TO contain gold but generally too small
an amount to defray tho expense Of parting. In
making the coins In question, IL would seem that
silver more auriferous than usual had fallen into
hands capable Of tho double dishonesty OF cheating
the public and themselves nj the same time.
Though there are probably some specimens Of this
singular counterfeit among the Mexican dollars IN
circulation, II is not at ell probable that they are
sufficiently numerous In this country TO excite at
tention other than a. curioeites.--W Washington
