SOLEMN INAUGURAL CEREMONIES Tues
DAY afternoon the membership of the Tenth
Baptist Church tower which the laUe Dr. Ken
marc pre- loed ior 50 many years, now under the
pastoral care of his son, Rev. J, s. Kennard)
assembled in great numbers to commemorate
the erection of monument 20 his memory, with
relgious services, at South Laurel Hill.
The monument is built Of the best italian
marble, on the Cornthlan order, and stands l2
feet inches in height The base Is OF light blue
marble, in rustic blocks, and on 1t is moulded
base and die, on which the following inscription
is cut In raised letters:-
Joseph II. Kennard, D. D.,
Born April "a, 1898:
Died June "a, 1866.
For hfty years an ambassador Of heaven, pure
in life, abounding IN labors God rowned him
with great success and the people with their
reverence"
On the die stands luted Coriuthian column,
surrounded with a handsomely carved capital
supporting an urn, on which hangs q wreath OF
laurel carved in solid marble.
The design of the memorial by the church
committee, and the execution of the work by
artists OF this city, reflect credit on their
judgment and taste.

A RAILROAD ACCIDENT RESULTS FATALLY
The train on the Delaware and Raritan Bay
Railroad which left Long Branch yesterday
afternoon ran over a woman who was walking
on the track, and mangled her in q most terrible
manner. The unfortunate woman had two
children with her, both of whom escaped In

was passing through a piece Of woods, and it is
supposed that she was so terrified when the
locomotive approached as to lose all presence
OF mind. The train was stopped after the
occurrence, and the passengers, among whom
were several prominent Philadelphians, made

The BankruPt LAW.

The bankrupt law which has passed
contemplates two kinds OF bankruptcy
voluntary and involuntary In the former
any person residing in the United States
owing over three hundred dollars and
finding himself insolvent, may petition
to the Judge of the district in which he
has resided for the six months preced-
ing, and shall thereupon be declared
bankrupt. The creditors meet together,
and appoint one or more assignees OF the
estate OF the dehtorthe choice TO be made
bv the greater part in value and number
oil creditors who have proved their debts,
or in case OF disagreement, by the judge,
or where there are none opposing, by the
register. The whole affairs of the bank
rupt pass into the hands of the assignees,
who have full power granted them for
the collection of all debts and final ad-
iustment and closing up OF the estate.
Stringent regulations are made for the
deposit and safe keeping OF all moneys
received from the estate, and in case Of
long litigation, the court is empowered
to invest them for the time being. The
bankrupt is liable at all times to be
called up IOr examination on oath. upon
all matters relating to the disposal OF
condition Of his property or to his busi-
ness transactions, and for good cause
shown his wife may be compelled to at
tend as witness in the case, In the
distribution of the bankrupt estate divi-
dends are to be paid as agreed upon by
a msiority in value OF the creditors,
from time to time at three months inter-
walls, but the following claims are first
20 be paid in full First, the fees, costs
and all expenses under the bankruptcy
act second, all debts, taxes, asses
ments due to the United States fourth,
wages due to any operative, clerk or
house servant, to an extent not exceed
ing fifty dollars for labor performed,
within six months preceding the bank
ruptcy ffth, all debts due to any per-
sons who are or may be entitled to pre-
ference by the laws of the United States
The voluntary bankrupt is entitled to
his discharge, provided no fraud is
proved against him, at any time from
sixty days to one year after adjudication
OF bankruptcy but proof or discovery
Of any fraud or concealment deprives
him of the right to discharge. No per
son who has once received his discharge
is to be entitled to become a voluntary
bankrupt, unless his estate is sufficient
to pay seventy per cent. of his debts, OIL
unless three-fourths of his creditors as
sent in writing to his bankruptcy. Pre-
ference and fraudulent conveyances are
declared void by the act, and suitable
provisions are made for the voluntary
bankruptcy of partnerships and corpora

TIE Troy WHIa. - This sprightly
daily comes 70 US in new dress and
improved appearance, it having dropped
its old ouarto and assumed an octave
shape. The Whig is conducted by
Messrs. W. D. Davis & Co., ably sus-
tained by a first.class corps of writer's.
and we, considering 1t among our best
New YORK State daiiies, rejoice at this
new evidence of its prosperity. The
terms of the Daily Whig are 500 per
annum and of the Weekly $lSO, prices
low enough to commend the journal to
parties in want OF q newspaper from
chat section of New York.
