see no good reason why philadelphia pur-
ohasers should not enjoy the benefits Of
similar decline. II appears by the reports Of
the Reading Railroad that it brought to mar
ket, up to the 25th inst, more than 100000
tons in excess of the amount transported
during the same period last year; and al
though the Schuylkill Canal transported
300, 900 tons less in 1869 than in 1868, there
is still an aggregate increase from the Schuyl-
kill region of more than 100000 tons. The
operators and retail dealers can best explain
why higher prices should be demanded here
than in New York, but it seems evident that
extortionate rates can only be maintained
here, if at all, by artificial and oppressive
combinations.

BRADwELL AND BRIGHAM.- Judge" Brad
we'll, who halls from Chicago, and whose
sole claim to notice appears to be founded on
the fact that he is the wife-we should, per-
haps, have said the husband-of Mrs. Brad
well, has been so completely befogged by the
old ladies that he has gone over to the enemy.
In o speech delivered at the Female Suffrage
Convention now in session at Cleveland, he
said that che felt like taking to his arms
everybody who had fought under this ban
ner"-that is to say, the woman's banner
and Mrs. Bradwell, who does not permit the
''Judge" to go out of her sight, sat by without
rebuking the utterance of such polygamous
sentiments. There are few of tho female
oracles which we would advise the "Judge" to
keep at a distance, Lucy Stone and Elizabeth
Cady Stanton, and some others who are
already welded and contrive to keep their
husbands in leading strings. Since they
manage one husband so readily, the chances
are that they would be equally successful in
manipulating brace of such trivial append
ages. But with Susan B. Anthony and Anna
Elizabeth Dickinson and some others whom
we might mention if we had the time, the
case is vastly different. The 'Judge" is at
liberty to take the whole crowd ''to his arms,
and if he is satisfied with his bargain, he will
doubtless find them even more than content
with the arrangement

HORACE GREELEY, although great as philosopher,
is not much as penman. In short, he writes about
the most eXecrable hand that was ever written by
mortal man, not even excepting the late Rufus
Choate, whose writing neither himself nor the Evil
One could decipher Two or three good anecdotes
concerning the philosophers chirography, which we
have not seen in print told by Tribune men. On
one occasion the great editorial genius wrete the
words, 'Save your money and buy land" and when
the compositor, wis had been familiar with the
peculiar scratches Of the philosopher from early
youth, had puzzled himself it for half-hour or
so, he made it out TO be Save your money, Benjamin
Wood and, to Greeleys Indignation, thus set 1t up.
On another occasion the philosopher ndulged In the
familiar Shakespearian quotation, "Tis true, It's
pity, and pity It's tis true" But as Horace seldom
quotes poetry, and seldom writes article without
dabbling more or less in figures, the anxious type
setter interpreted the quotation in this wise, is
two, it's fifty; It's two, It's tfty-two" The phlo-
sopher on this occasion, indulged in o little pro-
family when he received his proof.

A SPEEDY RESUMPTION OF SPECIE PAYMENTS

A SPEEDY RESUMPTION OF SPECIE PAYMENTS
finds no favor with Western Congressman,
who, as fast as they arrive in Washington, are
reported to pronounce against any and every
scheme for premature resumption, with re-
markable unanimity. 1t is also said that the
President has become convinced of the i'm
praotioability of immediate resumption. With
the President and the Secretary of the Trea-
sury and the united Western delegation in
Congress on the right track, there is little or
no cause to fear mischievous legislation at
the approaching session of Congress. Many
business interests have already been disas-
trously affected by the unauthorized and un-
founded resumption rumors The stagnation
existing in some directions, the fears of
crash in others, and the general feeling of
doubt and distrust in regard to the future,
may all be traced to this source. The sooner
these doubts are dissipated the better will it
be for all concerned. There is no serious
cause for apprehension, and the only possible
basis for alarm consists in the fact that a few
leading men desire to hasten resumption
They do not, however, WELD a controlling in
fuence on this subject, and despite their
most vigorous efforts, the period that must
necessarily elapse before specie payments can
be prudently resumed is to be counted by
years rather than by months.

NAPOLEON'S DESIRE FOR LIBERTY.
GABLE despatch this morning, with that
delightful vagueness for which cable de-
spstohes are noted, states that it is reported
that the Emperor Napoleon, in giving COM
mands for the preparation of his speech for
the opening of the Chambers, said-'I de-
sire the widest and most absolute affirmation
of liberty" 1t is very probable that Napo-
leon said this or something resembling it, for
it sounds like him. He has never hesitated
to affirm the most liberal principles ever
since the coup d'etat by which he obtained
possession of the throne, but unfortunately
his principles and his practices have
generally been directly opposed to
each other. 1t is evident, however,
that the situation of affairs is such at the pre-
sent time that he sees the absolute necessity
for yielding something, or at least for ap-
pearing to yield to the liberal ideas of the
age. He is still stronger than his opponents,
but with the example of some of his prede-
cessors before him, he is probably shrewd
enough to see that the time has come when it
is necessary to relax a little the despotism of
his system if he expecas to retain his hold of
power for the balance of his life, or to give
his son even a reasonable chance
to succeed him. The French people are
not 10 he relied upon, especially by man
who has played the tyrant, and any untoward
accident may precipitate a collision between
the people and the Government, and unite
all the now disorganized factions of the oppo-
sitien for the overthrow of the empire. A
mere affirmation of the widest and most alb
sohte liberty, however, will not be enough
of itself, and the recent performances of the
Emperor, such as the postponement of the
constitutional day of assemblage of the Corps
Legislatif, are not calculated to inspire much
confidence in his professions.

ANOTHER bewildering legal warfare, involv-
ing the control of the Erie Railway, is being
prosecuted in the New York city and State
courts. There is even more than the usual
medley of suits and counter-suits, orders and
counter orders, injunctions and counter
iniunctions, and the real meaning of the
whole struggle is as mysterious as ever.
Whatever be the issue, there is little doubt
that honest stockholders will still be swindled,
and that some of the New York judges will
be as ready as ever to shield unscrupulous
and swindling spectators.

ONE HUNDRED AND Ten APOSTLES OF NOR
MoNIsM have just been let loose upon the
country by Brigham Young, and soon the
whole horde will be at their proselyting task
1t is about time that this Mormon iniquity
had received the serious attention of the
country. Congress cannot better employ its
odd moments during the approaching session
than in making an effort to put a quietus on
the polygamous saints.

Terrible Railroad Accident North of the City
An Express Train Strikes u Mass of Rock

and Three Cars DcmOlished-Two Men X Killed
and Numbers Injured.
Special Despatch to The EUenin8 Telegraph.
HARRISBURG, Aug. IA terrible accident
occurred to the Buffalo and Erie train which left
this city at 3'15 this morning. When the train
had reached point about nine miles north of
here, IL struck some large rocks which had fallen
upon the track from an overhanging embank-
ment and the engine, together with baggage
express cars, and one passenger car were thrown
from the track. The train being under great
headway at the time, the force of the concusson
was terrible. The engineer and fireman. whose
names are not yet ascertained, were instantly
killed, and several other attaches of the train
severely injured.
The locomotive and baggage and express cars
were crushed into q complete mass of ruins A
portion OF the debris remained on the carriage
road adjoining the track, and the remainder
went into the canal below. The passenger car
was thrown on to a wall, on the other side of
which was a declivity of twenty feet Provi-
dcntially the car did not 90 over, and was only
saved by torn-up rail which had been thrown
over the wall, one end being driven into the
ground, whilst the other supported and saved
the tottcring car, which was full of passengers
The escape is one of the most miraculous on
record. Had the car gone over the WALL the
loss of life would have been fearful to contem-
plate. None would have escaped injury. While
the car was in this perilous position the passen-
gers all got out safely, not one being injured.
The loss to the Northern Central Road by de-
struction of rolling stock is estimated at
$4,000
