Psychologists will find new puzzles in the
"last dying speeches" of the two miserable
creatures who were hanged yesterday in Bal
timore. These murderers, it will be noticed
were not so much penitent and remorseful as
forgiving and cheerful. One of them boosted
that he was as well and contented as he ever
was in his life. In his disjointed address
on the scaffold Hallahan said: "There is
nothing like Christianity and brotherly
"love." He must have been thinking of the
"wrongful" treatment which he said he had
received at the hands of the Court; and it
reminds one of the man Smith, lately hanged
in Springfield, Mass, who said in his farewell,
"Let bygones be bygones; that's my way
"about it." This constant accession of a
spirit of forgiveness is one of the invariable
features of an execution.

The very small decrease in the public debt
$3.50, 51S-obviously requires some explana-
ton. The Secretary of the Treasury, we are
informed, says that the Departments which
were waiting for the list of July to make new
appropriations available, have been SO lavish
with the fresh amount of funds at hand that
they have materially trenched on the Treasury
reserves. This seems little weak; it is GER
tainly weak in the disbursing officers, ii not
in anybody else. We observe that the state
ment this time accounts for SSt0OO,OOO of the
called bonds which have been presented by
the Syndicate. Where have they been for the
past month

Two very serious railway accidents are re-
ported to-day. By collision Of an oil train
and freight train on the Allegheny Valley
Railroad two brakemen were killed and fifteen
cars burned. The accident on the Hudson
River Railroad, though not resulting in the
immediate death of any person, was more
thrilling, because so many lives were
put in jeopardy. The disaster was caused
by collision Of passenger train with
freight train; and the collision seems to be
chargeable to a defective switch. BY great
mercy, a considerable slaughter of passengers
was avoided; but two or three persons will
probably die, and four times that number are
wounded with more or less severity. Both of
these casualties seems due wholly to bad
management

Another savings institution has gone to
wreck. The Hoboken Savings Bank, default
by one of whose officers was noticed In IHE
TRIBUNE several days since, closed its doors
yesterday. When the whole truth in this case
becomes known we do not believe that it will
vary essentially from many which have pre-
coded it. Too much confidence in officers and
employees; too few safeguards around the cash,
and too much temptation to fallible men-this
is the old story; and it is idle TO say that an
Institution which had allowed one of its Off
GERS to make way with $4,000 would have
recovered if il had been let alone.

Gregarious pleasure who avoid the
old Summer resorts will find for their August
Outings some valuable notes on our third
mage. From the wine islands of Lake Erie to
the Isles of Shoals is wide range of
choice and if this be not broad enough, the
stretch from Northern New-York to the White
Sulphur Springs of Virginia is added. Ger
tainly, never before has there been such a
variety of choice as now; and if the reader
has week or ten days to spare, let him make
up his slender kit and HE him away speedily;
for the Autumn cOmeth.

The City has grown SO rapidly in dimen--
sions and the Improvements of its parks and
avenues and drives are SO extensive and nu-
merous, that even metropolitan readers Will
find great interest in the account elsewhere
published of the works recently carried out
and of others now in progress. The transforma-
ton of the upper part of the island from a
rocky desert into magnificent series OF parks
and drives is no less wonderful than expen-
sive. And yet every judicious Improvement
however costly, pays for itself many times
over in the increased value of the surrounding
property. ... ar ..

Mr.. KDIToR: ask permission TO insert
small article In Your valuable paper, In regard
to the State revenue or license law. The law
says that every individual, association of per-
sons, firm or corporation engaged In manufac-
ture, BY hand or by machinery, any article or
material Of any substance whatsoever shall an
ually, on or before the first day of June, take
out license for said engagement of inanufac-
ture. Now, Mr.. Editor, IL that license Is not
taken al the time specified, but is taken out be-
fore the irst Of November Is II valid? Ifnot, Is
1t right that the Clerk of the Peace shonld grant
such license when he knows it is not a lawful
lcense' Should persons that hold these license
receipts given under the name and seal of James
Ponder, Governor Of State, be held under bail

FREE BANKINo.-lt has been suggested thai
in order 10 relieve the pressure of the money
morket, Congress should provide THAI any per.
son or company may engage in the banking
business on complying with the existing laws
regulating the National Banks. It Is argued
that large portion of the National bonds could
be taken at five per cent. by banking houses,
aud the interest be retained in our own country
for tile benefit of our own people. We trust that
Congress may speedily act upon the matter, and
that the business men Of the country may or
ganize to afford the necessary financial relief
The high rate Of interest shows that 1t is not the
usury law that ia producing lie stringency in
the money market, and its repeal would afford
but little relief.

REPREsENTATIoN.-.Th Gazette proposes
to increase the representation Of this county
by adding one Senator and two Representatives
to be elected from the city of Wilmington.-
THIS number should be doubled. If we can
not have representation according to population
Wilmington should be given two Senators and
1ve Representatives. Our citizens should be
satisfied with nothing less than this, and If
Kent and Sussex should refuse to accede to the
demand, the citizens Of this ounty should de-
terinine that the opponents Of the measure
should be excluded from every office that their
united efforts can control.

AN IMPERIAL WEDDING.-A c"rrespon-
dent o. the New York Tlioes, writing from Pc
kin, gives an account Of the marriage of tho
Emperor Of China. An Imperial wedding Is
AL event that has not occurred there for more
than two hundred years.
1In the eyes Of the people the interest Of the
occaslon has been greatly enhanced by It's con-
nection with the majority OF their sovereign
They have accordingly been expecting it with
impaiience for some years, though the happy
bridegroom Is now but just turned Of seventeen.
And for as many years have the looms of Nam
kin, Canton, and Hong Chou been employed
In the preparation Of silken stus for the trous-
seau Of the Empress. On these vast sums have
been expended, amounting In the aggregate in
to not less THAI half a million OF dollars.
Yet this Is but small item in the whole
bill of expense, which, including the re-
pair of palaces and largesses to the Imperial
Guard and Tartar banners, viii foot up, 1t is
said, some fifteen or twenty millions. The LADY
In whose honor all this treasure is layisl,ed, Is
person of some consideration, being the
daughter Of one Of the first scholars Of the cm-
plre. Chinese ladies have In general but little
education, but the daughter Of such 4 man.
would not be allowed 10 grow up In i2uora nee
and 1t IL to her attachments In letters, no less
than her beauty that the lady ,Aluta owes Ler
elevation. As for the Emperor's presents TO
the bride and her parents, they were sent, ac-
cordng to custom, some time in advance, TO
the house of the bride, occupying five days In
the delivery, and each day being borne by be-
tween five hundred and thousand men,
Furniture, clothing, silks and satns, j. wells and
solid treasure, made up the bulk Of the pre-
sents.
"Among the gifts To the Empress | may
mention thousand rolls Of satin, and sixty
eight horses, To her parents were given u
hundred and thirty ounces Of gold, n golden
tea-canlstsr, six thousand six hundred ounce,
of silver, five hundred pieces of satin, fur robes,
six horses, &C., &c. Nor was the grandfather
forgotten, the presents for him beng similar
in kind, but less IN quantity"
