Church. An Ephany Festival and
Concert was being held there, and with
out any warning portion of the floor,
about rs feet in length by in width fell
with crash, precipitating its load Of
human freight into one mass, with the
broken joists and beams. A scene of
the widest excitement occurred and the
groans Of the wounded mingled with
the cries and calls of those in search Of
friends were heartrending. Many in
their excitement jumped from the win
dows and doors and every means of es-
| cape. The Occ pants Of the building
poured out as if to escape the impending
danger. There were 1900 people in the
assemblage, At the time of the accident
there was quite large audience on the
floor that fell upon thu floor below, as
that portion which received the most Of
the falling mass. A number of ladies
were engaged il washing dishes, but
fortunately the ends of the joists chung
to the wall sufficiently to force protec-
ton, and most of them escaped unhurt.
AS previously stated eight persons
were killed outright and three or four
were dangerously injured, aid at least
80 persons were wounded

The XVIII Amendment.

Both Branches of the Alabama Legisla-
ture passed tho Fifteenth Amendment by a
large majority on Tuesday last. This
makes twenty one States that have given
their assent to the Amendment, and six
more are still needed. The Republicans
are sure of Iowa, Minnesota, Ohio and YER
mont, while the assent of Texas and Mis-
sissippi is necessary precedent of their
admission into the Uuion. The Legisla-
ture of Tennessee rejected the Amendment
on Tuesday and Wednesday last.
The Cecil Democrat prophecied very
loudly in the last issue the certain failure
of the Amendment. Rebel prophecy has
become within the last nine years a
distinct literature in the United States, al
ways remarkable, however, for proving
false. We have a clear recollection of
the Editor of the aforenamed paper stand
ing up like Saul among the prophets, the
evening preceding Grants election, and
uttering the startling proclamation that if
elected the silent little General would
never leave the Presidential chair unless it
were to proclaim himself King.

DEAR SIR We inclose you an extra adj
vertisement, which you will please substi-
tute, for few days, for our regular stand
ing advertisement. You, as business man,
will easily appreciate the position of affairs
as stated by us in the enclosed, and will
doubtless approve of the remedy we have
adopted. Every one anticipated an un-
usually brisk trade this season, and every
one has been disappointed. We, perhaps,
have been the most fortunate of all Phila-
delphia merchants, our business showing a
large increase over last years but we have
made such prodigious preparations that we
cannot hope in the ordinary way to dispose
of our purchases and manufactures. But
two courses are open to us,-either to carry
over all this stock into next year, to our
great inconvenience, if not loss OF to clear
it out by sweeping sale, being content to
recover the money we have invested in this
surplus stock, re haus adopted the latter
You have already spoken to your readers
of our present stOck,-its immense size, its
excellence, and its cheapness, and many OF
Your neighbors are among our most valued
customers. Will you please now call then
attention to our proposed sale and say tc
them that with the single exception of oul
Executors Sale" last Winter, there has
not been in the life of any of them so good
a chance for bargain in clothing. Get
them to read eoery arord of our advertise.

their own interests, we will be sure to sell
at least one suit to every man of them.

MEMOIRS OF THE WAR IN THE SOUTHERN
DEPARTMENT OF THE UNITED STATES BY
GEN. HENRY LEE.-This work was written
by Lieutenant Col. Lee, of the Legion or
Light Horse during the American Revo-
lutionary War. The work has been re-
Gently revised by Robert E. Lee, of Rebel
General fame, who proved an unworthy
son of the author as a perusal of the book
will be apt to satisfy the reader. The strug-
giles and triumphs of the men of '76 will
lean readers. These Memoirs are written
with an evident effort at strict impartiality,
and aside from that fondness for the ford
style which is wont to crop out in the ma
jor part of this Southern Literature, it is
book which will not fail to interest most
readers. Lee was a brilliant cavalry officer,
and participated in most of the scenes he
describes. His narrative of those stirring
events of our Revolution, which resulted
in severing the colonies from the mother
country, owes much of its interest to the
minute detail which is preserved by the
author. One of the most attractive fea-
lures Of the present edition, to many of the
readers of the work, will doubtless be
the letters to his son, Charles Carter Lee,
while at College. These letters are full of
the tenderest filial affection, and while
strongly impressing upon his sons youth
full mind the necessity of virtuous and
upright life, the letters are filled with ad-
vice and instructions in reference to his
studies. The best books of ancient authors
are pointed out as the proper ones to study,
and the character of Washington, and
those among the ancients most noted for
wisdom and virtue, are held up constantly
as models. The authors veneration for
"the great Washington" as he terms him,
was most profound, and he never wearies
in speaking his praise. These admirable
letters, SO full of tender solicitude for his
son, so full of wisdom pointing out the rules
which he wished him to adopt as precepts,
as we have before said, will doubtless be
regarded as the most valuable part of the
work. The work is issued by the Univer-
sity Publishing Company, No. 4, Bond St.,
NY. Agents are wanted everywhere as
canvassers for the work, which we doubt
not will be found very saleable work in
the hands of good agents.
