PITTsBURG AND CoNNELLsvILLE RAILROAD Re
DEMPTIoN OF BoNDs.-The Connelsville Patriot
says: Negotiations have for some weeks been pend
ing between the borough authorities and the hold
ers of the borough bonds issued to the Pittsburg
and Connesville Railroad, and on Thursday of
last week arrangements were completed and the
bonds redeemed. 1t will be recollected that our
borough subscribed 100000 for which her bonds
were issued. The bondholders and the Railroad
Company finally agreed to return the bonds on the
payment of about Sl5,000 The proposition was
ment made on all taxables at the rate of sixteen
cents ON the dollar. This assessment falls pretty
heavily upon our citizens, especially those who own
no real estate, but it was thought better to pay this
sum than have an incubus hanging the property
of our place. So the bonds are redeemed, and our
property holders are free again. Most of the real
estate in town will now command a ready sale at
fair price, and purchasers will not be frightened
The borough of Connesville is no longer under
mortgage. Let us all rejoice.

A SAD AND AFFECTING INCTDENT-On Saturday
afternoon as Mr.. William Stevens was cunning on
the meadows in the vicinity of the Kossuth woods,
his dog strayed out into marshy spot to the right
OF Oliver street. and when in about the middle of
the ,quagmire stopped and commenced an excessive
barking over some object, thus causing Mr. Ste
vens to follow him and discover the dead body of
the poor little boy, William Henry Findlay, who
has been lost from his parents since the 5th instant
The little fellow had no doubt followed the band
with which he had last been seen on that day, to
the picnic ground little distance further on, and
starting for home, tired with his long walk, had
taken the nearest way across the meadow, and
stepping between the bogs had become so deeply
mired that he was unable to extricate himself.
His legs were firmly imbedded above his knees in
the marsh, and with all the exertion that he could
have made could not possibly have freed himself
without assistance, so that he must have perished
from sheer exhaustion and exposure. colored
man living some tWo hundred yards from where the
body was found, says that during that night
which our readers will remember was dark stor-
my and disma-he heard the voice of a child call
ing "mamma-m but was not able to dis
cover from whence it came, and it soon ceased al
together; then it was no doubt, when that little
voice ceased to call its earthly parent, that the
freed spirit took its flight to the bosom of the eter-
nal Father, joyed to be cat home again.
The child was AZ years old, was rather large of
his age, and is described of cheerful and hap
py temperament.-Ne Nercurv, JuIv l6.

THE GREAT SOCIAL EVIL IN LoNDoN.-Y esterday,
at midni ght, July 1st, the committee held meet
ing at the Lecture Hall, Euston road near the
Hampstead road, which was we'll attended. The
circulars of invitation were only issued a short
time before the hour of meeting, and at least 100
unfortunate girls attended. The cards were dis
tributed by missionaries, who paraded the prnci-
pal thoroughfares of the district, and the large
hall was nearly filled by midnight Refreshments
were provided on a similar scale to those at St.
James's HAIL. the whole of the tables were sur
rounded by these unfortunate creatures, and their
countenances betrayed great wonderment as to what
they were invited to do or to hear. A large num-
Der of cergymen and gentlemen attended. The
proceedings commenced with singing the beautiful
hymn. Crock of ages cleft for me-" The poor girls
sang with as much fervor as if they were in
church. The Rev. Mr.. Buckle then delivered an
effective address-at the conclusion of which the
Evening Hymn sung and the benediction pro-
nounced. The success of the meeting was very
marked, several having determined to go the
different homes; and altogether it was such as to
cause the committee to determine upon holding
several other meetings. The number who have ac-
cepted the offers of reclamation from the different
meetings has been great that the committee have
had to provide additional homes, and it is said that
perfectly independent one is to be iounded-Lon-

COMMERCIAL TROUBLE ABRoAD.-To the business
world, the English news by the Vanderbilt is of un-
usual Importance. Several very heavy failures
have occurred simultaneously, in London so unex-
pectedly, and with liabilities to so large an amount
as to produce the conviction that scarcely is the
country recovering from the depressing influences
of the mercantile panic of 1878, than DISPOSE
ton is shown TO run off again on the perilous
course OF extravaganza, speculation and credit
True, these suspensions confined to particu-
lar branch of trade-but it is not "a matter of sur
prise to learn that they have given rise to an un-
easiness which is felt more less throughout all
the avenues of commerce. Under this feeling
hence eonsols are quoted fraction CLOVER" and
"dull."

turn out cOrrect-that none of the American con-
nexions Of these houses in Liverpool, are compro-
missed. The immediate effect upon the leather
trade was total suspension of business, with de-
cline in some descriptions, of 3O@40 per cent
The London banks and discount firms are said to
be the principal holders of the acceptances of the
hosues that have failed the Bank of England
among them; but the Bank of England holds ample
securities against any probable losses. The money
article of the London Ne,cs says:
sit is but too evident that the basis upon which
the leather trade has rested has long been most pre-
carious, owing to the extension of the transactions
far beyond the point warranted by the capital of
the firms engaged. Numerous members of the
trade have hung upon each other, and more espe-
cially upon the one great house; hence the extent
of the crash. The full effect of these widespr
embarrassments has probably not yet been received
from the provinces. One of the most serious fea-
lures in connexion with the liquidation is the de-
probation which must take place in the value of
hides, leather and other stock in trade, through
the attempted realization of so enormous mass of
property. This process must be carried through
with great care. No operations took place to-day
in leather, buyers holding aloof and the market
being paralyzed; but English hides, being forced
for sale have experienced the serious fall of from
thirty to forty per cent from the prices previously
current. The market for foreign hides is, as vet
comparatively little affected"
