A HERoISE.-Among the young ladies from
Oxford, who got on the cars at Hamilton yess
terday morning, was Miss Sarah Moore, of Al
lenstown, near Vevay, Ind This is the young
lady whose presence of mind and excellent
judgment enabled her to escape from the fifth
story of the Western Female College, at Ok
ford, when surrounded with flames. 1t appears
that she heard the cry of FIRE, opened the room
door, and finding the College was on fire, she
returned 10 her room to secure her effects She
seized her trunk and was about to descend
when she was intercepted by the flames. She
again returned 10 her room, threw her trunk
out Of the window, made a rope out of the
comforts and window curtains, which she de-
liberately fastened to her bed post and descend.

Miss Moore is Of medium height, about six
teen years Of age, has beautiful black eyes, 9
high forehead, and an intellectual face. Hel
presence created quite an excitement in the
cars; and it was pretty generally observed
that the man who gets her for wife will se'
cure pilot that will conduct him safely through
all the storms and difficulties of life.
The College and all the clothing of many O
its inmates were totally destroyed. 1t wal

franklin Festival = The Printers In

Il is not often the PRnTERs obtrude upon the
public attention. While preparing the weekly

half century, they have never, we believe,
presented the public with an entertainment,
and solicited their presence and 'material aid"
They have concluded at LAST to do 30. They
will give Banquet and Ball at the Beckel
House this evening, and they cordially invite
all good people to meet them on the occasion.
They desire the reading public, whom they las
Dor to please, TO meet them tonight, face to
fsce--meet the men who print their papersl
The Prinlers-who are habitually and pro
fessionally poor, and not accustomed to having
more than enough cash TO secure the plsinest
fare--would be astonished at a board filled
with sumptuous food, and surrounded with the
magnificent and brilliant adjunots usual at
banquetsl They will guard against surprise
this evening; they will visit the banquet hall

Government, most of them win appear to have
been brought about on this principle. Take the
Gaze Of Catholic Emancipation. That certainly
was not yielded by Wellington and Sir Robert
Peel under any idea that the introduction Of Cath
olics into Parliament and the public Offices was
thing desirable in itself. The change made in
their policy on this Catholic question did not grow
out Of any chnnge in their opinion to the proba
BILE results Of it, 1t was based entirely the fact
that the call for this change had become so loud
ond the agitation of it vehement, that the con-
sequences of denying it were likely to prove more
serious than those of yielding to it. Such also was
the case with the Reform bill Of 1882. That bill
was yielded at last to exterior force; not to con-
viction that the Government was to be improved
by its passage, but to the dread of still more
alarming consequences if the demand for it were
not conceded.

The Republican National Convention met at
Chicago yesterday under the most promising aus
pices. 1t was one of the largest most brilliant,
and enthusiastic gatherings of the kind ever wit.
messed in the country. At the hour for assembling
Gov. Morgan of New-York called the Convention
to order, and on his motion the Hon. DAVID
WILMoT Of Pennsylvania was called upon to pre-
side temporarily. Appropriate addresses. were
made by both Gov. Morgan and Mr.. Wilmot.
Committees were then appointed on the permanent
organization and on credentials. The Committee
on the Permanent Organization reported for Pres.
dent of the Convention the Hon. GEORGE AslIMUN
of Massachusetts,. The usual number of Vice
Presidents and Secretaries were reported, and the
report being adopted, Mr. AsHMUN was conducted
to the chair, when he addressed the Convention,
being enthusiastically received. A Committee of
one from each State was appointed on Resolutions,
and the Illinois resolutions ordered to be referred
to the Committee. II was ordered that each del.
egate report the name of one person to constitute
q member of the Republican National Committee
for the ensuing four years. and then the Convention
adjourned.
Our regular correspondent telegraphs that the
prospects of MIR. LINCOLN for the nomination had
improved to such an extent that he was likely to
be chosen. On the other hand Mr.. Greeley tele.
graphs thatthc advocates of the nomination of Mr..
SEWARD, who had become much depressed during
Tuesday, yesterday became quite confident of sue
cess, basing their opinion upon changes effected
in the disposition of the delegations from Virginia
aud jersey. AT half past 10 o'clock last night
Mr.. Greeley regarded Mr.. Stewards chances rs
eyen and that Mr.. LINCOLN stood next on the
list.

THE POSTAL DEFICIENCY AGAIN

The Post Office Department ut Washington
owes an explanation to the country as to the
system. or want of system, under which such
deficit as that which has existed in the New
York Post Office could be so long concealed. One
theory which we have heard runs to the effect
that the account of moneys earned by local offices
passes under the supervision of one bureau at
Washington, while the account of moneys paid
into the Sub-Treasury is received at another
bureau, and that between these two bureaux there
has practically been established no system of COM
parison and cOunter-check. In other words, it is
as if the paying teller of bank should continue to
honor the drafts of all customers, without once
making reference TO the state of individual assets
in the hands of the receiving teller.
1t is monstrOus to suppose that the public rev.
enuc should be thrown open to such a system of
dealcation as would find its natural Indictment In
this reckless mode of doing business. But in view
of the deficiency which has just been discovered
in this city, we are forced TO fall back on this, or
some other equally monstrous superstition, in
order to avoid bringing direct charge of COM
pcity against some one or more Of the officials
connected with the Post Office Auditing Depart
ment at Washington.
For the rest we learn that il will require weeks
if not months to determine with any precision the
total amount of public moneys diverted out of their
proper channel by the acknowledgement and the
robberes Of the Nor-YVrk POstOffice 1t would
indeed seem doubtful whether under the present
system of conducting postal business, any accurate
estimate of public loss can ever be arrived at.
The like dclacations may be going on in thou
sand other Offices throughout the country; and
never, until an entire revolution shall have been
effected in the machinery by which this branch of
the Government is conducted, can we calculate
with any assurance of safety on not being victim
lied in like manner in q thousand other localities.
Let MS hope that this will rouse the Post
master General to vigorous prosecution Of these
charges which have so long been on file in his De-
partment in reference to the Chicago Post Office
Mr.. Holt, to his credit be it said has often, be-
ieve, urged prompt and definite action in this case
at one time going so far as to threaten resigna-
ton if compelled any longer to retain an officer in
whose official and other character he had no conf
dencc. The President, however, objected that
the removal of Cook would be a triumph to Judge
Douglas; and on this ground, and ON this alone, an
officer has been retained against whose official
management the most serious and specific charges
have been many times made by persons clothed
with due authority of investigation.
