DALLAS, Tuesday Afternoon, !

OCTOBER ~ leu
Since Tuesday of last week trade has not
helm satisfactory. II has fallen below what
we had every just rightto expect for the sea-
son. The crops are splendid, they are bring
Ing excellent cash prices, W. have as yet lost
nothing by adverse railroad combinations,
and the people to whom we sell have If any
thing less supplies than usual In looking
closely into the matter we find the only tar
gible reason for the absence Of cUetomers In
the fact they are 10 more or leAs exert toe
busy to come to town. The greater portion Of
the money as yet paidout in Dallas for cotton
this season has been taken 10 this county and
paid TO the pickers. They lave asyet sIet

lively few debts they have Incurred during
summer, This is the only reason wecm sug-
gest. IL follows that trade Is bound to im-
prove, and that the season will be better one
than last year.
There Is no denying the fact that this coun-
try was never in n more prosperous condition
than now We owe nothing and have at least
one years supplies on hand, or money enough
TO buy them No agricultural people rarely
ever have more surplus And to have this

Cashier Hedden Coming Home

A cable despatch was received this NOR
ming by John W. Taylor from Geo. B.
Jenkinson, dated Liverpool, July 2, as
follows:
To John w. Taylor :-Hedden sailed ON
Britannia; will arrive tomorrow or Sun
day. JENK1NsoN.
This cablegram caused much excitement
in Newark. and it could hardly be explain.
ed, until areporter of the Aduertiser ascer.
tanned from Mrs. Hedden that she was no.
titled by cable week ago that her husband
had sailed in the Britannia. also that she
had received letter from him, written up
on his arrival in London, in which he said
he should return Immediately and meet
whatever charges might be preferred
against him.
It is fair to infer that the homeward
bound Cashier took passage secretly. IN or
der probably, that he might be prepared
to give bonds, and avoid incarceration.
OF course the Government will take inn
mediate steps to secure Hedden's arrest on
the arrival of the Britannia, and it is not
improbable that revenue cutter will con-
vey q United States Marshal down the bay,
IN order that the arrest may be made be-
fore the steamer reaches her wharf.
That he does not feel himself to be en-
tirely responsible for the failure of the
First National Bank is quite evident from
his prompt determination to return. And
it is more than possible that other officials
connected with the defunct institution are
not especially pleased that he has done so.

Attempted Burglary.

About one o clock on Monday night last,
the Losey House. on Mt. Kimble Avenue,
was entered by burglar, who managed to
get his hand through the window blinds far
enough to loosen the hook and thus enter
the sleeping room occupied by Rev. DR..
White. The window was up, and being on
the ground floor entrance was easily effect
ed. He passed through the Reverend gem
tleman's room without awaking either he
or his wife, and then passed up stairs and
put out the light which was left burn
ing in tlfe hail. Miss Boyden, an
other boarder, was awakened by steal
thy footsteps and gave the alarm.
The thief passed down the stairs and back
through DR.. Whites room and out the
window without having secured anything
whatever, although two valuable watches
lay exposed in the first room he entered.
Some of the male boarders came up town
and notified the police, but no trace of the
burglar could be obtained
Last week Mr.. Stalter's boarding house,
just beyond Losey's. was the scene of a
similar attempt; also Mr.. Joel Muchmore's
on Morris Street. a few weeks ago. In the
latter case the attempt was frustrated by
a watch dog.
The three cases were evidently the work
of the same party.

Another Steamboat Catastrophe.

On Monday afternoon last the steam-
boat SeawanhaKa, running between New
York and points on Long Island, took
fire while passing through He'll Gate,
with some three hundred souls on board.
Just as the ill>fated craft passed Hall
let's Point made memorable by Gen.
Newton's explosion of its submerged
reef a few years ago-there was an ex~
plosion of some kind IN the boiler room.
The flames spread rapidly and the
widest confusion reigned among the
passengers, many jumping into the
swift current which whirls through He'll
Gate channel, and were drowned before
reaching the shore. The captain with
rare courage and presence of mind kept
his post at the wheel and with a full
head of steam run the burning boat upon
the suken meadows above Wards Island,
and beached her with the prov forty
feet upon the marshy shore. As the
burning steamer was beached, those OF
her passengers who were upon her bow
were able to leap upon the sands without
more than barely wetting their feet.
Those upon the stern, however, had no
means of escape The flames had shut
off all passage through the boat, and
these were taken off in boats Or jumped
into the water.
1t is estimated that some forty lives
were lost either by burning or by drown>
ing, after jumping overheard. Mr.. Chas.
A. Dana, editor of the New York Sun,
was a passenger, but escaped unhurt by
remaining on board until the boat was
near the shore and then jumped off and
swan to the island.

The Editorial Excursion.

Quite number of ladies and gentlemen
started from Morristown, on Monday last,

The entire party, numbering about $50,
left New York at s. O'Clock on Monday af-
ternoon on a special steamer chartered for
that purpose, and are expected back to.

MADISON, N. J., July !, 1873

MADlsVN, NJ = = Jhiy II 1ccO.
Miss Nellie Smiley is visiting friends in
this place.
An infant child of James D. Burnett
died on Friday last.
A horse belonging to the late George
Pomeroy dropped dead yesterday.
Bishop Hurst attended the dedication
of the NJ. E. Church on Sunday last.
The hotel well is dry,which occurrence
has never taken place before. Several
other wells and cisterns are also dry.
The scholars of Miss Lovell's school
picniced in the Dell, on Thursday last.
A horse belonging to Bishop Hurst
died last week. By some mistake some
Paris green was mixed with the feed.
Mr.. Frank Chapman, of this place, res
ceived the degree of Bachelor of Sci>
ence at the Rutgers College Commence
ment.
A meeting of the young people of the
NJ. E. Sunday School will be held in the
basement of the church, on Friday eve>
ming, for the purpose of rehearsing some
new music. Mr.. Rathbun is the direc>
tor.
In stating last week that Rev. DR..
Whiting, of Hackettstown, was to occu--
Ply the pulpit of the NJ. E. Church last
Sunday, was mistake. 1t should have
been DR.. Whitney,
On Friday evening last large crowd
of persons were at Mrs. Phyffe's conser~
yatory to see cactus of very rare spec
cies in bloom. The flower was very
white with fine centre and was beau
tiful sight.
The election Of school trustee for
District No, 81, in place of Gen. Potter,
takes place this evening at the school
house. Mr.. Chapman will no doubt be
elected.
The most remarkable occurrence that
has ever taken place in this vicinity, and
and no doubt in the State, was the cut
ting of thirteen acres of grass on Monday
last, by w. F. Ely, of Columbia, from 7
O'Clock A. M. to 1920 P. M. of the same
day, and at 6 P. NJ. the hay was in the
barn. The grass was cut with an Eu-
reka Mower, which leaves the grass
standing, and with his carrier it was Ia
ken to the barn. We think that this
feat is one worthy of publishing.

The city VS.. water.

At an informal meeting Of members Of
the Common Council, held last evening, to
consult with their counsel, Theo. Little,
Esq, regarding the question at issue be-
tween the City and the Aqueduct Compa-
ny, it was concluded to prosecute the suit
now before the Chancellor, to the end that
some decision may be rendered respecting
the alleged right of the Acqueduct Compa-
ny to refuse at will to serve the city with
water.
The question now, is not SO much what
the city is to pay for water. but rather
to test the question Of the supreme power
Of the Acqueduct Company.
