Accident at u Funeral.

Yesterday evening, as carriage with several
persons inside, and containing the corpse of a
negro child, was on its way to the graveyard fol
lowed by colored procession on foot, the horses
attached to the vehicle took fright and became
uncomfortable. They ran down Rampant street,
and turned the corner sharply at Cont, the driver
being unable to stop them on account of the
breaking of bit in the mouth of one of the horses.
The carriage was at length stopped and badly
damaged by being thrown upon the sidewalk.
The driver received serious injuries in his right
knee; it is supposed to be a compound fracture
and the pain, at any rate, sufficiently great to
render him senseless. The rest of the party met
with no injury. The drivers name was John Ro
drigues, who drives carriage No. 1856. He has
been since, we learn, carried to his own house
AS the cemetery in which the body was to be in
tered was but a short distance from the place o
the accident, the corpse was carried thither by
negro, the friends of the deceased following OF
foot.

Hern.
The above case came up for the usual prelim
nary hearing that takes place before the com
mittlng magistrate, yesterday morning, and con
siderable audience were assembled of friends and
sympathisers with the different parties and of wit
nesses to the tragedy itself. The most prominent
among the latter was the wife of the deceased
Hern, dressed in mourning with handkerchief to
her face, and the latter still further concealed by
the dropping of her head. She had pleasing ex-
Preston of countenance, a child in her arms
showed that she was mother, and her detected
and troubled look added little to the interest of
the scene, It will perhaps be remembered that
at the time her husband met his death She had
just fed from his house into the street. and that in
espousing her quarrel (rashly and injudiciously
perhaps, but certainly as it appears in the first in
stance, from good-natured impulse,) johnson
had been led to commit the deed. Something of
the embarrassment naturally incident to such a
situation appeared in her face. As for the rest,

In the Second District there is now daily to be
seen upon the streets vendor of steel chains and
rings, and who bears SO many Of these around his
neck and shoulders as almost to give him the ap-
pearanCe of wearing chain arnor He calls himself
Frank, and lie has been the victim Of a nervous
stroke which has curously affected his lower
limbs and which Of itselfis sufficient to keep him
always surrounded with a crowd. He has so little
control Of his movements that he never walks in
a straight line, but moves by series Of tacks.
But the most singular thing about him is that he
cannot sit still for many minutes or walk for any
distance without turning around two or three
times, as if he was winding himself up but really,
for the opposite reason, as he explains 1t, OF
Strengthening out his nerves."
This misfortune to Frank was the source to him
of still another. He was arrested yesterday We
beieve) upon the charge of being drunk and dis
turbing the peace and of being thumbugger,
TO quote his own word) generally The case
was Immediately dismissed when it came up to-
day, in the Second District recorders court, for
hearing, and when he proved, as he easily did
that he was suffering from sort of paralytic
affection. But hsmovements, when he was released
might have again caused his arrest by any officer
who knew nothing Of the previous facts, as he
started off from the station. party Sof stately
danes were at that time passing, and it was no
| little amusing to witness the sensible quicken
| ing in their speed as he put himself in motion.
| A Much Needed Reform.
Dauphin street, which was so called in honor Of
Louis XIV while he was only heir to the throne O.
| France, has for many years proved that it appro
priately derived its name from that licentiou
prince. The residences Of some Of our most re
spectacle citizens are it is true, upon this street
but the character of others Of its inhabitants has
been above reproach. The number of tn
latter has been for long time diminishing, am
we are happy to announce that they are now &
take up their departure altogether
The statistics show that there are, Or were yes
terday, some fifty prostitutes who live upon thi
street, and that there are some dozen property
holders who own the few houses that are lease
for such bad purpose. Considering the extra
ordinary demand for tenements, it would at firs
glance not appear difficult to lease all of thes
houses TO honest tenants. The difficulty is tha
the latter class are only able to pay half the rer
that can be easily obtained from the other. RI
corder Gastnel has however, discovered remed
that may perhaps meet the evil. Ordinance M
403 imposes severe fines (Sl5 day after propt

TIE law of Virginia authorizing the
funding OF interest on the State debt,
passed ut the late session of the Legis-
Iature, provides that the holders of reg
istered bonds of the commonwealth,
issued before the 18th of April, 1861,
may invest tho interest due upon said
bonds in registered bonds of the State
bearing the same rate OF interest as the
principal, and payable in ten or thirty
years, MS the holder mny elect. The
holders of the coupon bonds of the
State, issued prior to the above date,
are permitted to invest the interest due
in either coupon or registered bonds, 10
bear interest at the rate of the principal.
All fractional sums of interest due on
the above bonds, which cannot be in
vested as provided, shall be provided
for in the. form of certificates, payable
in two, three or four years, with inter
est. The interest on the bonds of the
restored government, issued since the
creation OF West Virginia, may be In
vested up TO January, 1867, in bonds as
before suited. This enactment appears
to have had very beneficial effect upon
the securities of the State of Virginia.
Before its pnssnge the registered bonds
were held ut forty-two, and sales were
made as low as forty. Since its passage
snles of these bonds have been made at
forty-fiYe, and they arc now held at
forty-seyen. It's effect has also been to
put Virginia coupons up from sixty
two to seventy-one.

THE Importation of foreign dry goods
lntterly has been very large. Tho
total landed at New York in the last
four weeks amounts to nearly seventeen
million dollars in foreign gold value,
against less than four millions for the
same period in last year. The total en-
tered for consumption ut that port
since the LIST of January is $22,7l7,9 4s,
against S3,70O, 462 in the corresponding
time last year. The amount withdrawn
for consumption in the two months is
81, Ola, 5l2, against about half that sum
in same time last year. The amount
entered for warehousing since the 1st
January is 81, 752, 72l, against S2,274, SG3.
Adding the amount entered for con-
sumption to the amount warehoused.
and we have an aggregate OF So, 40, 500,
against S6,OT4, S25 in corresponding
months last year. Our exports, as an
offset to these importations, have de-
creased in greater ratio than the inn
ports have increased. For the first two
months of 1863 we exported nearly
3. OOO, 900 bushels of wheat: this year
only $500 bushels; and 59.00O,OOO
pounds of cut meats, against this year
/, ACC, 196 pounds. During the same pc
Rod the shipments of lard were nearly
ten times the amount for the last two
months; tallow four times; butter ten
times the amount, and cheese more than
double; and ny far the larger amount
of indebtedness to Europe has been Off
set by the heavy amounts of United
States bonds sent abroad. It is true
there has been some increase in the cX-
ports OF cotton, naval stores and petro-
ieunl, but breadstutls and provisions
exhibit n very important falling OF.

% anticIpate chat it will lead to any

we anticipate that 1t will lead to any
such evils.
II there arc any ''honest recruits"-
and we trust there ARE some, and that
our anonymous friend is one-they are
welcomed to the fellowship OF allloyal
men, and if "honest'' will have no diff
fculty in giving satisfactory evidence
of 1T; but the Union army wants to en-
list no spies or decoys under the guise
of endorsers of the President. It is too
much to expect that the country yet
mourning the caIamities brought upon
it by the treason of this Democratic
party-can receive its present professions
under the old leadership, with unre-
served confidence. Great indeed should
be the guarantee to entitle it to any
confidence. Asst is, we can SEQ moth
ing in the present conduct or LEADER
ship of this party, as unquestionably
there is nothing in its history, that au-
thorizes us to assume that it has ADAM
doned its ancient maxims of treachery.
We believe the President perfectly un-
derstands their game, and while there
could be nothing gained by rejecting
proffered acquiescence in his policy Of
this hitherto opposing party, he will
take good care that the power of the
government is not seduced from the
hands of its true friends.
In our judgement, these professions
of appreciation now rendered by the
copperhcad democracy to the President
are meant only as a bride, and IL ac-
cepted would be only as the kiss of Ju-
das. They arc made only for the pur-
pose of driving from the President the
friends who placed him where he Island
who will faithfully sustain him there as
long as he is true TO his pledges, with
the hone that he would then fall into
the clutches of the inscriptions lead
ers OF this unprincipled party. Our
own idea is happily expressed in "a par
agraph of the article reproduced Satur-
day morning from the Parkersburg
Times:
n1'his new outburst of applause for
| Andrew Johnson is not meant as much
for his support as IL is to signify to him
that just in proportion as he will nban-
don his old friends, in the same degree
| nm old eEfete democracy VIII take him
up; or, in u word, the copperheads at
the North want their old Southern al
| lies, and when restored to power they
j will corporate with them, as they did
in the painy days of james buchanan:
/ This is tho real object to be gained, and
i ANDY johnson must be demoraliZed to

son is too wise and loo patriotic to ruin
j both the country and himself. He has
tasted the rebellion, and SO have the
