NEW YORK. July 81, 1871.
Whereas charges have been made of waste. mis-
appropriation and peculation in the public funds to

tending TO show enormous frauds committed by
public officials; and whereas 1t is the right and duty
OF the citizens at large to inquire into and scrutinlze
the doings OF their servants. and by proper means
to investigate the public accounts, and the present
occasions calls for the prompt and united action OF
the people to deal with this new and startling aspect
OF alleged misrule;
Therefore the undersigned invite their fellow
citizens without distinction OF parties who desire
good government and honest and fair dealing with
the public moneys, and are disposed to have the
charges now so publicly and distinctly made fol.
lowed by full ana thorough examination OF the
public accounts and ready to take necessary
steps therefor, 10 meet at the Academy OF Music on
Tuesday evening August 8, at eight O'Clock.

"The ~Virgininns."

From the Philadelphia Press, April 6th.l
Thackeray, who wrote so genially Of
our Revolutionary times. ought to be
living to describe the thrilling scene
last night at the Continental Hotel,
when Pennsylvania welcomed Virginia
to Philadelphia. No other pen could
do Justice to the event. Our regret Is
not less sincere that the people of the
whole country could not have heard
what was so we'll and so heartily said
by our Southern guests. They were
the masters Of the evening. The pro
gramme was their own, and never be-
fore was the reputation Of the Old
Dominion for e%loquence 80 successfully
sustained. Mayor Fox presided with
dignity and tact, aided by State Sena-
tor Roller, Of the Virginia Legislature.
What was said by the four leading
speakers selected by our friends Is else
where summarized. We wish 1t could
have been deliberately reported. No
words would 20 more directly to the
heart Of the country. The sentiment
of devotion to the American Union
and to Its perpetuity, spoken by South

ARIds 70 Death.

About eleven o'clock yesterday
morning a boy named Thomas Hodgln,
eleven years Of ago, jumped on the
cowcatcher of q locomotive driving
about the Patterson depot, with the In
tention of stealing a ride. Some one
cried for him to get off, when, In at
tempting to do so, his foot slipped, and
he fell, with his head directly under
the wheels Of the engine. About half
of the top Of his head was cut bff, the
skull being severed rs If by a 'broadax.
The brains were scattered along the
track for several feet, and the sight
was one which few could look upon.
Coroner Butterworth was summoned
to view the body, and, after all inyesti-
cation, gave q permit for burial. The
boy was apparently half-witted. and
could not be restrained. He has been
the cause Of a good deal of trouble and
anxiety to the depot employees. who
have repeatedly driven him away, and
who have witnessed his narrow escapes
from a similar death several times be-
fore. His parents, who live at No. 3S
Morton street, had expressed their ina
biltty to exercise any control over him.

THE DEMOCRACY AND THE
CoLoRED VOTERS.

We believe the Democratic party OF
the North, all Its protestations to the
contrary Notwithstanding, will eventu'
ally get down on Its knees In abject
beggary for the negro vote. 1t will be
no coudescension, however; for the
Democracy Is already below the level
Of the negro, and the average colored
voter is not only the intellectual equal,
but the superior, Of the men who
march up to the polls like cattle to
vote the Democratic ticket. In Con-
necticut all the cajolery the shrewd
leaders Of the party were capable oil
wa lavished upon the new voters.
Prominent Democrats took to renting
pews in the churches Of the colored
people, to addressing colored meetings
aud to other overtures OF the same
kind. Twas all in vain. As the coarse
organs Of the party express it, "the
colored troops fought nobly," and
came out victorious. In Cleveland,
Ohio, the Democrats went so far rs to
nominate a colorcd man for Assessor,
but all to no purpose. The election.
according to a local paper, resulted In
the greatest slaughter Of the Democracy
that has ever been witnessed in Cleve-
land, and In the ig%nominious defeat of
their colored candidate. Have Demo-
cratic nostrils grown less delicate?
Has the white mans party met its
fate? or Is our civilization q failure ?

The CRUST OF TIE EARTH.-Dr

The CRUST OF TIE EARTH.-Dr.
Boyn says:
If we bury q thermometer fifty feet
below the surface Of the earth, the
mercury will remain ut the same point
the year around, in winter and in sum-
mer, showing that the influence of the
| sun does not reach below that depth.
If we carry the thermometer fifty feet
lower, the mercury will rise II de-
gree, and will rise In the same ratio
for every fifty feet we go down. II
can be easily calculated at what depth
| all known substances will melt. This
would not exceed fifty miles. 1t will
thus be seer that the crust, or solid
part, Of the earth Is exceedingly thin
in proportion to the diameter-lot 80
thick as an egg-shell in proportion to
the size of the egg. With a crust so
thin, constantly cooling. and pro.
ducing a pressure upon the internal
masses, 1t Is not strange that the bed
of the ocean should be elevated In a
single day, and whole cities have been
sunk in the same space Of time. The
side of u volcanic mountain once broke
away, and the livid masses flowed out,
forming a river twelve miles wide,
which, in its course, melted down six
hills 600 feet high, filling up valleys
600 feet deep, and spreading over a
surface OF LOO square miles.

rHr rRANoo,pRuss1AN wAR.

The Berlin papers are publishing
condensed statistics of the recent con-
test between Germany and France,
from which It appears that the war
was declared OH July Is, 1870, and
terminated OIL February IL, 1871, last
ing 2lO days, but practically $50 days,
in consequence Of the first and last
periods being free from engagements.
In one week the German troops were
"mobilized" or prepared to march,
and In two weeks dispatched to
the west, and were arranged on the
line from Treves to Landau. The
troops sent to the frontier numbered
GOO, 900 and $4,000 men, with horses,
guns, carriages and ammunition, were
conveyed every day on five lines Oh
railway; two of which, however, were
little used. Four Prussian corps
d,armee had to traverse from 400 to
600 miles to reach the French frontier,
and had to be fed on the way. During
the $50 days of active service there
were fought 156 engagements and IL
great battles 2G fortresses were taken
1850 officers and 363,OOO men OF the
rank and file were made prisoners
600 guns and l2O eagles were cap
tured. Having regard to the chrome
logical order of the actions up TO Sedan,
there were thirteen engagements and
eight battles, to wit: Weissenbourg'
woerth, spicheren, Courcelless, Won
Vile, Grlvelotte, Noiseul and Beau
mont; ; while the four fortresses OF Lut'
zelstein, L~ichtenberg, Marsal and Vitry
were captured during that period. In
September there were thirteen engage
ments, and Sedan, Laon, Toul and
Strasbourg were captured. In October
there were thirty-seven engagements
and Scissors, Schelstadt and Metz wer'
taken. In November there were tifteer
engagements and two battles, thos'
of Amiens and Beaune-la-R olande an(
Verdun, Montbeliard, New Breisach

adel Of Metz surrendered to the Ger
mans. In December there were thirty
engagements and two battles, one nea'

A JadEc Sentencing n Old sohesl.
Mate 70 Be HahRed.

The Memphis SIN gives the follow
ing account Of the sentence OF the CUBA
murderer:
Judge Flippin then spoke as follows: :
"Samuel II. Poston, this is n of the
saddest IRA In my life. Our parents
and their children knew each other.
We grew up together; went to the
same school, the same church, ana
played OH hill and in valley the shine
innocent games In boyhood. Years
have passed since then. Our roads In
life have diverged. You now stand
convicted Of a great, q capital crime,
and l, as the minister of the law, have
imposed upon me the painful duty OF
passing upon you the sentence ofdeath.
Were It consistent with my official du-
ties, l would that this cup pass from
me- But l cannot now shrink from
the performance of this sad official re-
quirement, and must not and will not
In the future, though other victims
may fall to avenge violated law. 1t
Is, therefore, the sentence of the Court
that you be remanded to the County
Jail Of Shelby county, the place from
whence you came, to be there securely
kept until Friday, the 26th day of May
next. when you will be taken by the
Sheriff of Shelby county, between the
hours of 10 A. n. and 3 p. NJ, within
one mile and a half of the courthouse
OF said county, and then to be hanged
by the neck until you are dead, and
may God have mercy OIL your SOUL"
When Poston was called, both the
Judge and Poston were very much
moved. Poston shook like an aspen
leaf-had to grasp o chair for support.
At the conclusion Of the sentence
Judge Flippin was In tears, rs was also
nearly all the largo crowd gathered
there. 1t was a most affecting scene,
and will eve be remembered by those
who witnessed 1t. 1t was a surprise to
all to know the relation that had eX-
listed IN early childhood between Judge
Flippin and Poston, and 1t must indeed
have been n very sad thing for Judge
Flippin to consign to death the play
mate Of his early boyhood days.
