TIE storm which commenced here yes
tel Say morning, was by no means a visitor
to Delaware exclusively, but part of a
general storm extending from the lakes to
the gulf The rain storm commenced
about the middle of the week, in the gulf
Of Mexico and on the Florida coast, and in
twenty-four hours by actual measurement,
it reached four hundred and sjxty-one
inches. The barrier offered by the Allie
ghany range, held back the storm from
Delaware and Atlantic coast States, but
yesterday at an early hour it came upon
Wilmington, and continued at intervals
throughout the day.

Russia Bankrupt.

The London correspondent OF the Liver
pool Journal says that, according the be-
lief of most persons. Russia is insolvent i. e.
will not much longer be able to pay the in
terest upon her debts, because hitherto she
has been paying by means of fresh loans,
which are now no longer to be had. One
London weekly has plainly affirmed that the
annual deficit in Russia is about fifteen mil.
lions sterling. The Economist takes more
hopeful view, but is compelled to admit
that Russia could not stand war of the
first magnitude, and that, if she attempted
it, "the whole thing would 20 to pieces"

A Novel Society.

A society has recently been formed in
Paris, the members of which declare, by a
special clause in their will, that they do not
wish to be inferred after death, but they
desire their bodies to be delivered to the
amphitheatres to be dissected. Their OBJ.
ject, they state, is to contribute to the pro-
gress of this important science, withou,
which profund study of the healing art is
impossible. They would also remove ex-
isting prejudices against dissection ofbodies

The Indian question is one Of unusual
interest now at army headquarters, owing to
the unpleasant situation that General
Crook is placed in. The latest advices
represent him as in the very midst of the
country occupied by the Sioux, and as
having force that will be wholly made
quate to encounter those that he will meet.
The story brought in by friendly Indian,
and published in the New York papers Of
Saturday that he had encountered the
Sioux and had three hundred Of his men
massacred, is discredited, but there is be-
Lief that his situation is one necessary 10
cause anxiety, and that troops and amuni-
tion should be sent to him ct once.

GRANTS UGLY POSITION.

What are we to expect after the tesuMc-
nv Of Solicitor Wilson before the Whiskey
Committee. Is there any reason to hope
for mercy from Grant to the people
whom he holds dow under the tyran!cal
power of his despolic will, and the depre-
datious of military upon property and
life.that are under his control. The story
that Mr.. Wilson tells is one Of the black
est vice and infany in the White House,
to shield thieves, which Wilson, appreciat-
ing the horror of such things being imputed
to the head ofthe nation, attempts to shield
in his mercy, by saying the President was
actuated in his motives by an implicit b.
liefin Babcock's innocence. All the time
Mr.. Wilson, as the Solicitor Of the Treas.
ury, working faithfully as sworn officer,
was telling him developments that impli-
Gated his private secretary as deeply as
any ofthose who are now serving out their
terms, he communicated them to Babcock.
The Secretary OF the Treasury and his
Solicitor were powerless to move with any
effect against Babcock because his master
told him everything that had been found
out Of his transactions as fast as they were
developed. In this way he subverted a
Justice that these two officers were striving
to carry out by informing on. them and
opposing them at every step.
The testimony OF the Solicitor before the
committee clearly shows that but for .he
conduct CT the President, Babcock would
surely have been brought to justice. Af.el
this startling revelation, can we expect
anything that is honorable toward the
South or to the people Of any other section
of the country, that happen 10 displease
him? Now we know why Yalyan wa,
dismissed, why Commissioner Pratt had tl
leave, why Solicitor Wilson was ordered
to be peremptorily dismissed, why Bris,
tow found it more pleasant to be out of the
Presidents Cabinet than in it, why Dye
was succeeded by another and why othe
heads were compelled to fall. Aiter th'
revelations of Solicitor Wilson's testimony
we may expect at any time 10 hear 0
the pardon of Mcdonald, Ave:y, Joyc,
and the rest Of the whiskey thiey tina
Secretary Bristow and h;s faithful officers
worked so hard to bring to justice.
1t has been much vaunted cry Of The
Republican party that, the Democratic par
ty if they came into power would turn th'
good men out of Office and put worse one
in their place. If they did, it could no
be much worse than the course Grant ha
pursued. The Secretary of the Treasur,
and his best officers for pursuing thei
duty strictly have been dismissed or com
PEELED to resign. In our own State W
have had taste of Grants ideas of civi
service, when he attempted 10 displace al
ofiser who has given every satisfaction
and to replace him with another that me
with strong opposition. Before the start
ling testimony just given in before tn
Whiskey Committee every one was unabl
to account for the Presidents unusual cor
duct in these wholesale dismissals, bu
now it bursts upon them in all the dishon
esty of its motives. As we said in the CON
mencement of this article what are we t
expect after this?

SOME RELIGIOUS SERVICES.
THE 0PEN-AIR PREAOHITS AT THE
PENNSYLVANIA DEPOT.

The ASSASSINATION Of n Crowd of West-stde
BOYS and Giris-The speakers Constrained
TO Threaten to Gail the Police TO their AID.
At +. NJ yesterday a miscellaneous,
restless assemblaRc of persons stood around i've
or six men who, under the shadow OF the great
PENNSYLVANIA Depot ~ the foot Of Yestry street,
attempted to hold their second Sunday outdoor
meeting. All the express wagons In the vicinity
we're occupied as seats. There were In the au-
dienoo persons Of all ages, from the mall child,
and even the baby in arms, to the old woman
with a rufled white clmbric cap. IL was
a fair representation Of the extreme west
side 81 the city. There were among the throna
scarcely any or 40 persons who seemed TO be
inhabitants of. the cellars. Yet the religious
aud temperance meetings Of Water street and
IN tue open air OF James slip and other places
along the east side, which display many de-
bauched faces are respectful and quiet, while
this west side assemblage was noisy, disrespect-
ful and 1eertnR. Six or seven girls, from eleven
to fourteen, and even seventeen years of age
stood on the platform, which was step above
every Earnest GESTURE and avery sentencs os tSa
speaker with loud peals Of laughter, leading in
derision the men and boys IN the crowd. More
than as many young fellows from sixteen years
old to twenty-three, behaved In the same dis
orderly manner, though less loudly. Children
and adul's talked continually, aud the first
speaker closed his remarks, hoping that they
would give the next one more respectful
hearing"
Singing aternaied with the several speeches,
but the tpeope OF the western wharves had not
yet caught the me,odies that have become gem
orally 80 familiar. At last, after one man had
repeatedly made loud CALCULATIONS and other
disturbance, one OF the leaders OF the meeting
called out 81 will make an ex imple of two OF
you. You shall be arrested II you continue to
interrupt meeting which the Mayor has given
us perm sson to hold" Upon this three
four policemen, who had heretofore done little
or nothing to quiet the throng, walked into the
centre; tue iostling crowd fell back. tho large
girls restrained their loud laughter, and the
mirth, in the singing.
The gentlemen who addressed the meeting
were Messrs. Hind. Hale, Fox, Atkins and
Weems. MIR. Hind told the audience Of church
where the seats we're free near bv, at Varick and
Laght streets, and gave them a warm welcome
to come there. These omen air meetings are to
be held every Sunday at L. NJ.
