LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.
A Company of I'm migrants.

People who were up early this morning

sion, move from the p. r. r. depot to
Kircher's hotel, corner of East King and
Lime streets, just after the arrival of the
emigrant train in this city. The whole
company were from Prussia and there must
have been from Is to 100 of them-meD,
women and children. They came from
pretty much the same neighborhood and
are part of the immense flood of immigra-
ton, which, it has been noticed, has been
pouring into the country the past few
weeks. Finding the great drift of the move
ment to be westward this company con
cluded to stop off in what they understood
to be the German part of PENNSYLVANIA
and chose Lancaster as the centre of it and
Of fat agricultural region. They pro-
poso to try and find work hero before risk
ing their fortunes and spending what lit
tie money they have in the great West,
and it is at least an open question whether
they cannot do as we'll here. They have
come in entire families and with their all,
and are ready for any kind of work. They
presented very picturesque appearance
as they crowded Kircher's bar room and
yard this morning, although they were
more comfortably clad and hada superior
air of thrift to the average emigrants.
The men arc stout. hearty, young and
middle aged. and good looking; the
women and girls appear willing and capa-
bic for all kinds of female labor and we
trust they will find ample opportunity in
this garden spot of their adopted country.

TIE Philadelphia merchants are ap
pealing to the Legislature to pass an in.
solvent traders bill, voiding judgments
not placed on record, and vOiding a
judgment obtained by collusiOn with a
debtor with view to preference. And
they invite us to correct /" an erroneous
impression concerning this bill, viz. /:
That it is wholly in the interest of the
city merchant or tr1ader.' We are not
sufficiently familiar with the provisions
and tenor of this particular bill to ex
press an opinion upon it generally, but
we can endorse the latter suggestion,
that legislation to protect city merchants
from the fraud and insolvency of their
remote customers is likewise in the in
terest of solvent and reliable coun-
try merchants. The truth is that
the city merchants very often in
failing 10 protect themselves do the
greatest injustice to solvent country
traders. We have several cases in view
in which utterly worthless and irrespon-
sible store keepers of this county readily
obtained from leading Philadelphia
houses large credits, and, never intend
ing to pay their bills, could sell their
goods in ruinous competition with their
neighbors who paid their debts. OF course
the loss eventually fell most heavily on
the Philadelphia creditors, but had they
taken half the trouble to find out the
standing of their customers, before they
extended credit to them, that it af-
forwards cost them to ascertain
their responsibility they would have
never wronged their permanent and re
sponsible patrons by extending aid and
comfort to worthless competitors.

Determined Suicide.

man named Martin K. Walker. who
lived on a small farm there, former
ly was prosperous stock raiser in
California, but sixteen years ago he
came east, and five years ago settled

all of the little property remaining.
Last June he went into The field,
stripped himself OF his clothes. set
fire to brush heap, placed the gun
to his head and snapped it three
times without discharging it,intend-
ing TO kill himself and allow his
body to fall on the burning pile.
Sunday last he carried this singular
attempt at suicide into effect. and
he was found with the top Of his
heal completely blown off and
naked, the body partly burned on a
blazing heap of brush, W. ich he had
kindled. He left letters announcing
his determination, expressing his
confirmed hopeleSsness as to him
self. and warning his children to
avoid whisky. He leaves a wife
and several grown up children.
