Ttoe Tok Talk this-week has been the Undoubted suicide of H iu,Preston King, Collector of Customs for. thispurr.' Ife'Was considered one ofthu best' representative men bTthfs State* highly esteemed by many even of his political ene mies, and in his own coterie was much ad mired for his fine qualities as a gentleman of great geniality. In certain circles he will long be missed, and it will be difficult to find a successor who will unite so many sterling qualities possessed by him. Os course the politicians and wire-pullers in the front rank are now figuring as to whose clique shall be fort lira enough to have tbe office thus made vacant, and a pretty internecine squab ble is going on among them, while yet his body remains undiscovered. The Police Brigade which paraded yesterday, made a magnifi cent physical display, which will have more good effect upon hundreds of the scum of this city who may feel riotously disposed, than are all the addresses ever made (rom our City Hall steps by their official “friends.” The marching was perfectly splendid, and many ot our old army officers who witness ed it, were perfectly delighted. Many of them have been through the war and conse quently know how to keep step to the “mu sic o! the Union.” There is not much risk of contradiction in sayiDg that New York City can now boast of as fine a body of well drilled police as any city in the world, and it would be hard indeed <o excel id physique, politeness, suavUy’ and gentleness to ladies and children, our celebrated Brad way force. .. The Fire Alarm Telegraph has really been swullowed by New York, maugre it 9 being an horrible Yankee inven tion from the “town of Boston,” and works finely. We have now arrived at that stage (predicted in this correspondence some three years ago, which prediction caused a bucolic jien-slinger of a heavy weekly here to “pitch in" to the subscriber considerably.) When Jl ur citizens flud that to put out a conflagra tion, it is not necessary to have a riot among the hremcn; nor to have what properly may nave been saved from the flames, carried on to the engine houses or sold to pawnbrokers <o enable Sikesv and Jgkey to have a “high old bender." Fires now are put out quifckly. quietly, aud the maebiues (all steamers now) return to their houses to patiently await an other job, instead of adjourning to bar rooms o ‘“ tr bumming places, as did a majority 'the old department. This city will, ere many years, be ranked among civilized com munities if it progresses as rapidlv as during the last decade.

The people love Gen. Grant but they dislike seeing him in the hands ol this mod ern speculator on public festivities, funerals and complimentary suppers. Outdoor Sporting with the exception, perhaps, of one or two more races, being now considered over until next Spring, owners of yachts are beaching and dismantling them ; boat-clubs keep their lap streaks and shells well packed in sea weed, oars are oiled aud put in the racks; ball-clubs only practice ; and all the young sters and many old ooes too, are hunting aud brushing up their skates. The skating ponds are beiug filled, and the boys don’t care how son Jack Frost comes and gives them their glossy surface over which to make merry, as they glide swiftly while chasing their pale faces away. The Rail Season of 1865-66 promises to exceed in liveliness and festivity any ot its predecessors. About one hundred and sixty balls are already un derlined for this winter, to say nothing of the innumerable affairs of the kind which will not be heard of until about the time they are to come off. ... Finances vs. Fisticuff,. Two prominent stock brokers, J.. Van Schaick aud Lawrence Jerome, were the principals in a lively combat the other day in the classic precincts of the “gold room.” Tbe former opened the ball by tbe energetic statement that “all the members of the lat ters’ family were d—d seoundiels and thieves, and there was nut one of them who would not out of pure avarice purloin the smallest cop per known to tbe American public from the closed optics of a defunct Ethiopian.” As Jerome seemed to regard this wild state ment as a pleasant jest, Van Schaick called him a “coward," ana a very pretty fight was soon in progress. Jerome got a black eye, while his opponent received a blow on the “smeller, 1 ’ which caused the “claret” to flow freely, and was finally floored by a hit “be low the belt.” The battle resulted in favor of Jerome, who walked into'“Del monico’s” and indulged in a great deal of profanity and cocktail. Van Schaick retired to “Dunnings and swallowed his defeat in a “bonbon sour." It is hardly probable that a regular prize fight will result from the affray. The Frenei, Cauadisni have been holding a meeting in this city to form an Association which shall extend throughout the United Stales, and hold an annual convention. Though the matter is not mentioned outwardly, there is little doubt that the object is to forward what is regarded by many, as meritable in time, the admission of Canada into the United States. I heard an intelligent Canadian say only a few days ago, that such an event would hap pen inside of ten years, and if Canada could be put on the right sort of footing as regards her debt and ours, Che matter might be greatly hastened. Canada has about three millions-of-people, and a debt of perhaps, millions ofcLilUrs. We have thirty millions of inhabitants.ami three .thousand seven hundred millions-of-debt. ■ If a-satis factory appointment can he made there is little doubt tfiaC a'large majority of the Cana dians would vote for annexation. Their |in .terest Hes-tberdin, and-those- who have in telligence see it. The number of Such' ill-' -creases yearly, and will continue to grow mi di the union is accomplished. The efforts of the Association now forming, aud from whicVßritish Canadiaus.arp ruled but, will hasten the event. ~ ir The Right, of Landlords and Tenant have been decided in a' case in suit in the Court of Common Pleas. A house was rented for $250 per month, in advance, from Dec. 23, 1862, to May Ist, 1863. Defendant continued to occupy until June 12th, with out further bargain, paying rent until June Ist. Plaintiff claimed $312 50 rent for the month of June, $750 for alleged refusal by defendant between Feb. 1 aud May l,to pre vent persons wishing to hire from examining the premises so that plaintiff could not let them till October; S6O for “injuries caused by largo quantities of Btale bread thereon into the front basement which attracted great numbers of rats and mice,” and small amounts for articles lost or destroyed, and unpaid ga9 and water bills; total claim, with interest, $1,144 87. Defendant did not dis pute the items of missing articles, water aud gas, and the jury were directed to find for these amounts. But they tailed to find any further damages tor the plaintiff, the judge having ruled that when the defendant was tenant, no others could hire, and that no damages could be recovered unless it was proven that an effort was made to rent the house after it was vacated, and then ouly for a reasonable time beyond the Ist oi May, sufficient for plaintiff to have rented the premises. A School of Mine*. The second session of the “school of mines" in connection with Columbia College, has been inaugurated. The object of the school is to furnish to the student the means of ac quiring a thorough scientific and practical knowledge of those branches of science which relate to mining and the working up of the mineral resources of the country, and to supply to those engaged in mining and metallingical operations, persons compe tent to take charge of new or old works and conduct them on thoroughly scientific prin ciples. Large numbers of students are rep resented to be anxious to enter the school, which is well furnished with all tbe appli ances necessary to a proper acquaintance of the subjects alluded to. The laboratory and museum are spacious rooms; and the col lect ion of specimens in the latter is large and interesting. Five thousand dollars are wanted by the school to purchase two col lections of minerals, which will make its col lection as complete as any in tbe country. With the completion of tbe Pacific Railroad, now expected in about four years, a grand field will be opened to persons engaged in mining pursuits, and there will be plenty of employment for all who theoretically and practically comprehend the methods of de veloping the mineral resources of the country. Edgar A. Poe. The recent death of Geo Arnold, better known perhaps as McArone, brings freshly 10 mind that of Filz James O'Brien, meteoric genius in the poetic line, and a particular friend of Mr. Arnold. Remembering O'Brien, I am reminded that a gentleman at the West re ceived a letter from the lamented Edgar A. Poe, at the time of his death, in which the distinguished poet bequeathed to him a lot ot manuscripts contained in his truck at a hotel in Baltimore, where lie died. On ex amining the trunk iu question, nothing, of the kind was found, and it was supposed (he oratic Poe had, in one of his flighty moments made a mistake Sometime, subsequently, however, some poetry was published, having tattacbed to it the name of Fitz James O Brien, which bore a wonder ful resemblance to iho style of Poe, and the gentleman's suspicions were aroused there by. He tried in vain tq ascertain the iden tity of the poems In question, and to this day has never been known whether Poe lett any unpublished poems as a legacy to Ills country, (bough the devisee has always sup- Eosed that the manuscripts were purloined y same one and sold to Mr. O’Brien. The latter left a brilliant reputation, and I am In clined strongly to doubt bis having anything to do with such a matter aud to believe that Hoe never left any poethumous manuscripts. Waaca or an ax Mmjurauk lies n an.—The steamer Grey hound, Captain Nickerson, from Boston for Cnailottetown, struck on Bird lioclt Udgia, Nova heoilu, on tbe I Bib lost, aud filling with water, sunk lusuvrn fathoms.

A Hack Overturned and Four Person* killed. The Charleston Courier of the 20th con tains the following details of a dreadful ac cident which occnned on Tuesday the 14th, near Hope Station, about twenty-one miles from Columbia, on the Greenville Railroad; furnished by a gentleman who was on the road at the time-ofthe melanchcriy event. It appears that a provipop Accident had occurred on the rail road a short distance be low Hope Station, the cars having run off the track. The passengers for Columbia were thus detained until an engine with a box car could be sent up, which unfortunately, met with a similar mishap. Tbe passengers Were thus detained on the road several hours and reached-Hope Station late in the night, which was exceedingly dark and rainy. As the cars neared Hope Station an’ agent of Pool’s line of Backs came on board to sell -tickets, and several passengers who wished to continue on thetr way purchased tickets; It was afterwards found that more tickets had been sold than the accommodations of fered to passengers. They were all packed in two hack ambulances, tbe agent telling the passengers that this was only tempor ary and that better arrangements would be made on reaching tbe hotel or public house at Hope Station. On reaching the station, in consequence ol the darkuess of the night, a general disposi tion among the passengers was exhibited to wait over till morning. Mr. Howard, pro prietor of tbe hqjgl, said $e had qo accom modations, his house being already full. It was then decided to go on, and tbe ambu lances were again filled. As they were about starting some of the party asked for a lan tern. A gentleman cautioned them not to start without it, for fear of accident, and one of the drivers said he could not undertake to drive in sue]) weatjier and:, uuder such cir cumstances.without $ fMfcS Harvard said he had no light, and that Mr. Pool did not furnish his hacks with lanterns. After some remonstrance from the passengers against being sent off without a light, the whole party started. The dtiver of the lead i ig ambulance had not proceeded but a short distance when he stopped and stated he could go no further iu safety .without a lan tern. It was proposed' by some to proceed until they reached some Arouse on the road, and by others to go back to the station, The latter plan was agreed upon and tbe determi nation scarcely made when cries were heard in the direction of the rear hack. The driver exclaimed, “there has been an upset,” and went back to the-spot from wbencetbe noise proceeded. Before his return some of the unfortunate passengers from the iear hack came crawling up the gully on their hands and Knees to the road. They knew not all that.bad happened, but said 1 heir vehicle ■ bad been precipitated dfrwn tbe gully a dis tance of about thirteen feet, intt> a creek, an<P„tbaf some <sf lUfcjr pafly UacTbeen killed.

'Four persons were takeCpiji dead, ’rtese Were Mrs. Van Winkle, wile of Mr. Van Wiukle, of this city, on her way. home ; Mrs. Anna Bedows, an English lady; Rev. Dr. Cohen, Professor in the Presbyte rian Theological Seminary at Columbia, and a small colored girl, servant of Mrs. Van. Winkle. The bodies were all brought to tbe City Saturday. On the return of the party to the station with the bodies of the killed, much indignation was expressed by the pas sengers at the refusal of those who had pre j viously denied them the lantern- No in ! quest was held on the bodies, there being no ! Magistrate within twenty miles ot the place | where the accident occurred. We have not learned the names of the parlies injured. Washington Items. The Times’ special of tbe 16th says’:— Paidon brokerage has been carried on for months, and though the President', once at teuopted to break itjup, it haskince increased to such proportions as to be a necessary con comitant of business. Many of the most prominent Southern men who have visited Washington the past summer have acted as attorneys tor from a- dozen to a hundred cases, spending weeks of time here, and get ting their fees in each case. The Commercial’s Washington letter says: The appointment of Gen. Logan us Minister to Mexico is believed here to be based on the promise that the Fiench troops wifi be with drawn from Maximilian’s domains at the same time the United Slates army is with drawn from the Rio Grande, and the armed emigration to Mexico is to he discounten anced at Washington. The letter says the President has recently, decided to issue rations to tbe suffering freed men in the Southern States duiing the com ing winter, and also to such whites as may be destitute. The President has recently declared that the freedmen should have full protection in their right to settle on public lands in Florida and Texas. ~\ .. - News from Texas. New Orleans, Nov. IC, 1865. News from Texas states that the Indians are creating great alarm on tbe northern frontier of that State. Advices from Austin say that Provisional Governor Hamilton will soon issue an order for the election of delegates to a State Con vention, the election to be held about tbe 15th of December and tbe Convention to as semble about a month after. The Houston Telegraph of the 10th inst. learns that orders have been received in. tbe State from Washington not to muster out of tbe service any more troops, nor to sell any more government properly, until further orders. The Germans in Texas are preparing to plant cotton extensively and to raise it by their own labor. They also invite their countrymen to emigrate to tfie State. Tub Aomission op Conorkssmkn prom thk Southern States.— A Washington corres pondent of a Boston paper thus sketches tbe plans of the radicals in the approaching Congress. He says that a large number of Senators and members are flitting back and forth, takings glance at the situation, en gaging quarters for the protracted session that is coming, and exchanging such views as to enable a very correct opinion to be formed as to what will be tbe rulos that will govern the ndmisdon of the Southern mem bers. They will be found to be as follows: Ist. Mr. McPherson, Clerk of the House, will not call tbe roll of Southern States, which of course, precludes the call of the members eloct of the same. Hi).
