So far it looks encouraging for the pro-
iect.-but the bill will have to run the
gauntlet of the House, and of the Senate,
and of the President. If the friends OF
our canal will separate it from the Rich

it on its own merits, they may possibly be
able to coax and squeeze it through. 1t
will require better management than the
Davenport Gazette has exhibited to get it
through. The Juggling of politics into the
question by that paper has very much in

HE CAUSES THE DEATH OF A DELAWARE LADY AND
10 Thrown INTO PRISON TO ANSWER THE CHARGE
AT COURT
Coroner Brown, of Philadelphia, held ali III
quest, yesterday morning, at No. ii6 South
Fourth street, that city, on the body of Mrs. Emily
]. yandegrift, the wife of Isaac Tandegrift,
who resides near McDonough, in this
county. Mrs. Vsndegrift had died the pre-
vious morning from the effects OF malpractice,
it WAS supposed, her physician stating that she
would have to be operated on for hernia.
Some time ago Mr.. Yandegrift read III some
of the newspapers an advertisement Of DIR. John
Buchanan, of "American University of Philade-
phia" notoriety, No. 5li Pine street,
He thereupon took his wife to the
Doctor and held an interview with him, stating
his wifes troubles which seems to have been a
rupture of the bowels, when he was coniden-
TALLY informed that she could be cured, and an
advance fee of $75 was paid and Mrs. V. left in
charge Of DIR. buchanan. Mrs. Vandegrift was
removed to the house where she subsequently
died, presided over by two elderly ladies', and
said to be place where the Dr. attends pa
| TENTS She was under treatment there from
about the first OF the month, where it is alleged
| the operation of malpractice, recommended and
said to be necessary by the DR. was performed.
| On last Sunday Mrs. v. was taken with vomiting,
which continued until Tuesday morning. After
her death DIR. Buchanan gave a certificate OF
| death from bilious remittent fever, and signed
| his name with the residence at No. 225 North
Twelfth street. The husband, Isaac W. Vandegrif
afterwards swore ont q warrant for the arrest Of
Buchanan, charging him with malpractice.
Dr.. l.. b. Shapleigh made post-morten ex
animation at the direction of the coroner, ant
the result was reported to the jury yesterday
morning. He testified that the body was in goot
condition. He found no external evidence o.
rupture there might have been small ruptur,
on the right side, but no strangulation and moth
| ing singular; there had been premature brit
within few days. The bowels were congested
and at five places he found imagination or in
tussusception. The immediate cause of dealt
was exhaustion, resulting from pain and vomit
ing.
The jury found that death Was caused by OK
haustion, caused by disease OF the bowels, tn,
result of criminal malpractice at the hands o.
DR.. John Buchanan. DR.. Buchanan was com
mitted to prison to answer the charge at Court
Mrs Vnndegrift was about 80 years of age

OPENING or THE EXHIBITION LAST EVENING"
FAIR ATrENDANcE-THE DISPLAY, &c.
The work of preparation for the horticultural
Exhibition having been completed the door.
Of Institute Hall were thrown open at the APP
pointed hour, last evening. Despite the inclem-
emit state of the weather the hall was very well
filled, and smiling, happy faces bespoke the
pleasure which the location afforded.
The decorations of the hall wore set Off to
good advantage under the gar lights, and a
universal expression Of admiration burst from
the lips of the beholders rs they gazed upon tho
beautiful surroundings. A rare degree of ex-
quisite taste was displayed in the ornamentation,
and noteworthy feature of it s the
perfect symmetry and harmony with
which it has been put together. Much praise is
due the committee for the efficiency with which
they have discharged the duties imposed upon
them, and for the admirable judgment with
which they have combined taste and utility.
The display of fruits last evening Was very
good, notwithstanding the Interference OF the
weather in getting them to the city. They COM
prised mainly our own productiuns-peach-
es, apples, pears, grapes etc, i'll great variety.
Most inviting clusters and groups of fruit were
exposed in appropriate positions, and vegetables
mingled with them to show still further the
wealth OF our productions. The floral displa,
was very pretty i'll its graceful confusion, and II
is an open question whether an exhibition oil
| such really fine flowers and plants was ever he.
| fore made here.
/ The several departments of the exhibition, ul.
| der the management of the Committees published
in these columns yesterday, with their assistants
selected for the evening, were tolerably vel
patronized. No one need fear, however, even il
the committees should be very busy, that the,
will be neglected il patronage is offered, for Tho
committees are unlimited in number, and all ad
ditonal force of assistants can easily he sum
moned.
The exhibition will continue this and to-rnor
row evenings closing on the latter.
