POSTING FORBID IN COLUMBUS. On yesterday afternoon we met Mr. John Milton, Of Marianna, Florida, who ia the eon cf ex-Goveroor Mil- ton of that State. He was en route for the North, and did nat at*y in the city long enough to give us an In torview with him- He gave ua, however, a brief review of the Phillips and Waddell matter as viewed by outsiders. He says he was on the ground st Neal's Landing, Florida, with the Phillips party, and they hid notified the other party that they would be there on the 3«1 of September, the party waiting, expecting Waddell andj hie friends, nnt 1* Saturday morning; but they tailed to come; that on their return, there was a letter received by one of Phillips' party from Col. Waddell or some friend of his, giving, as his reason for bis non-attendance at the place appointed was the sickness of Mr. Holland, who was acting as his second. The Pb illij a party left their arms in Eofsnla, Ala At Seal’s Station, »here Col. Waddsll resides, a son of Colonel Waddell and two other gentleme-i got aboard the train, all arm ed—one with a doable barrel shot gun, and the others with p atois. From their manner, he says, he was ap prehensive of a difficulty aU the way. Nothing, how ever, occurred. In Columbus, he says. It was rumored that Phillips intended to post Colonel Waddell by circular, and that Col. W. and Lis friends armed themselves and threatened to shoot any man that posted one of tnese circulars. The Mayor ol the city then interfered, and n quested Mr. Phillips to avoid a street difficulty by not posting Waddell. It Is also rumored that the city papers were requested not to publ ah the correspondence. The Phi.lips rarty will be home this afternoon on the West Point tiaiu. We clip the following from the Columbus Sun of yesterday: Is th* ClTT.—Messrs. Phillip*, Lay and others, and Dr. Colx-y, arrived in the city yesterday on the M. & G. K. It.

The “Dashes Here and There” man of this cfhce, is under numerous obligations to the Franklin Printing House, of this city, for a package of the fanciest and at the tame time, neatest package of “business” cards ever turned oat in this city.

Thi~1s s new move in the direction NEW YORK ITEMS. Suspension of the New York Warehouse and Security Company—Serious Acci dent—Jay Gould and the Erie Railroad. Nkw York, Sept. 9, 1873. It appears that the trouble in the New^ York Ware house and Security Company arose from its relations with two of its directors, Francis Skiddy, of No. 101 Wall street, and Sheppard Gandy, of No. GO Wall street Both are heavy sugar importers, snd were di rectors of the New York Warehouse and Security Company, and also directors of the Missouri, Kansas k Texas Railway Company, now in course of construc tion. They bad invested so heavily in this road and elsewhere that their large resoarces and excellent credit could not carry them through, and they, there fore obtained loans from the Security Com pan 3 cn stock and bonds of the latter and other corporations. The Warehouse and Security Company, however, had a large amount of paper in circulation, which was about to mature, and unless some of the loans which it bad made to Messrs. Skiddy k Gandy were taken up, they conld not meet their obligations. Frequent consultations were had, but without satisfactory re sults, as the disordered condition of the money mar ket, and the fact that Kansas, Missouri and Texas se curities were negotiable In Wall street, precludes mak ing loans in other and less partial quarters. A meeting of directors had, therefore, been called yesterday morning, and it was resolved to suspend temporarily and call a meeting of creditors, on Tburs* day, to take action in the matter. Francis Skiddy is the head of the firm of Skiddy, Minford k Co., of No. 101 Wall street, who are among the heaviest impor ters of sugars in this city. Mr. Skiddy has b«.en iden tified with steamboat, railroad and other interests for msny years, and has always borne s good name for financial strength. Sheppard Gandy is a member ot the sugar firm of Sheppard Gandy & Co., of No. 60 Wall street. Neither of thebe houses have suspended as yet. While the Seventy-first Regiment was parading through Fourth street, in Williamsburg, this morn ing, a balcony, crowded with spectators, suddenly broke down. All were precipitated to tho sidewalk, one person being killed and fifte -n more or less se verely injured. It is stated that a number of sails, inspired by Jay Gonld. will soon be brongbt against the Erie Railroad Company and directors personally, for alleged illegal acta done in connection with the recent declaration of dividends. SPAIN’S STRUGGLES. Modification in tho Ministry—More Military Changca. MaDEin. Septembor 9, 1873. There have been some modifications in the Ministry since its announcement yesterday mnruiDg. Senor Berges, who was first named for Minister of Justice, has been appointed Ministe^of Public Works instead of SeDcr Corvora; and Senor Debrie has received the portfolio of the Minister of Justice. General Martinez Campos has relinquished the com’ mand of the Republican land forces besieging Carta gena, and been placed in commaud of the troops in Valencia. General Salidido succeeds General Campos as commander of the forces before Cartagena. Vice Admiial Sir^Hastings Yclverton, commanding the British Eqnadrou in the Mediterranean, has in formed the Government that ho will surrender the frigates Victoria and Almanza, uow held at Gibraltar, if a crew of five hundred men is placed upon each vessel. Madrid, September 8, 1873. Twenty.seven general officers have thus far left the government service because tho military laws are not enforced. Gens. Gonzalea, Cebellos and FavU have been promoted to the rank of Lieutenant Generals. Barcelona, September 9,1873. The Republican garrison at Olst Gerona has been reinforced. No apprehensions are felt of the rapture of the town by the Carlists. A regiment of govern ment troops stationed at Barga mutined yerterday, and compelled its officers to leave the city.

The firm was to-dsy appealed to by telegraph from Havana. The dispatch says that there is great destitution there. This refers to the fire ol Plaza Vspor, which involved Iom of eight millions. A Director of the New York Warehouse and Security Company states that the company assets are about $2,500,000, bnt does not know how much of this is in tbe form of unpaid loans. Liabilities $1,300,000. The Missouri, Kansas and Texas Railroad owe the company $1,000,006. one-half of which was secured by bonds of the road, and notes of the Land Grant Railway and Trnst Company, and the other half by personal guaranty of five of the railway direc tors. Two of these were the Skiddy and Gandy Direc tors; also of the Warehouse Company; notea of the Land Grant Company, of which Skiddy is President. He is considered to be good. The Warehouse Com pany also made a loan of $2,000,000 to tbe New Or leans, Mobile and Texas Railroad Company, which has not yet been completed. This loan matured last spring, and Is not yet paid, but is secured by per* tonal guaranty. A loan was also made to tbe Wes 4 Wisconsin Railroad, amounting to $10,000, which loan was good, though not yet matured. Tho same was true of several other railways. Whether the suspen sion of tbe Warehonse Company was tc be temporary or final, depended entirely on the d. Cil’on of the creditors. Susan Coates, the baby farmer, wa9 to-day released on bail, two physicians testifying tba* she did noth ing wrong. Tbe officials of the Brooklyn Trust Company, to-day, issued a circular denying the statements thvt tbe com pany was unable to meet all its liabilities.

The 71st regiment of this city had been visiting the 47th rrglment and were returning home, tbe streets being filled with thousands of people. Just as the last two companies of the 71at regiment were op posite the building on which was attached the balcony it gave way, precipitating them upon the heads of the people below. The military immediate ly halted, laid down their ; arms and rushed to the assistance of tbe people. Those who wero hart were taken to a hospital which was contiguous to tbe build ing where the accident occurred. Twenty were injured, including a Miss Williams and Miss Vandyke fatally ; Daniel Brovn sorionsly, and the mainder slightly. Many ethers were scratched and bruised. It is stated that many of tbe ladies who were injured, were robbed of watches and jewelry by thieves, snd many had their pockets picked. Tho cause of the a cidont was defective iron work.

We are informed that on Wednesday an old iuciy of eighty years, living on Bacon street, iu this city, visited the insane asylum at Taunton, Mass., with her daughter, to see her sou, who Las for somo time been confined there lor insanity from tho effects of a wound received daring the w'ar. On arriving there the mother was shown into the reception room, whero wero several more lady visitors and one or two patients, and the son was brought into the same room, when tho at tendant went out and locked the door. There happened to be in the room at the time a lady who had gone there expecting to secure the release of her husband, but for some reason be could not bo discharged on that day. This was a great disappointment to the wife, but the effect upon tho husband when she told him wus terrible. Ho raged and tore round the room in perfect fury, smashed up a marble topped table as if it was paper, and commenced operations on the ^lock. This bo had got partially, if not quite, demolished, when the son of the old lady from this city, who had been quiet up to this time, became excited and attacked the infuriated husband. A rough and tumble fight ensued which must have been frightful to witness, and tho foel ings of those women, shut up with two infu riated insane persons and unable to escape, cau hardly bo imagined. Alter a little fighting, the husband, with a piece of the furniture he had been demolish ing, or with his finger nails, cut or scrutchod the forehead of the son, making a frightful gush, from which the blood flowed copiously, and then catching him by the throat, bo choked him till bis face turned porplo. Doubtless be would have killed him then and there, but the old lady, seeing her son's danger, went to the rescue, and after a severe straggle, succeeded in making the husband let go his hold. Fortunately the attendant came in and a stop was put to tbe proceedings, though it required five mjn to secure tho dis appointed and infuriated husband aud put him beyond tho power of doing harm.

Yarn and fabrics firm and quiet, A Story With Two Sides.—A few (lays ago a story came in tbe California papers about a young Chinaman in San Jose falling in love with bis employer’s daughter, tbe girl’s rejection of the Mongolian’s suit, and of bis retaliating by firing three pistol shots at her, tbe first of which struck a steel ril> of her corset and glanced off. the second cut her apron strings behind, and the third buzzed her ear. The Chinaman, supposing he had killed his victim, shot himself dead. That was the story. Th.*ro is another side to it. A strong suspicion exists among the neighbors and those who know the Dubois family that old Dubois killed the Chinaman, and that he and his wife and the two girls made up the story. The mark on the steel rib of! the corset looks as if it had ^been made with a knife instead of a bullet The covering is cat as with a blade, bat the metal is not grazed. The Dubois women at the inquest said that the Chinaman’s attack on the girl was made about noon when Dabois himself was away from home. Shots were heard by others early iu the morning when Dubois was at home, and none were heard by the same persons in the same places at noon. They tell a story that Dubois bad a hired man to whom he owed $600 for services some years ago. The man was caught by Dubois in a suspicious position with his oldest daughter, and the poor man agreed to settle with the irate father by giving him a receipt for all the money owing him. The neighbors tbrought that affair was precoucocted by Dubois aud the giil. The Chiuamau, jnst dead, had been with him six years, and Du bois owed him $500. His relatives know this fact, and they don’t belive the story of suicide. Dubois and his family have all been arrested, and are now in jail awaiting examination for the killing of the Chinaman. Tbe Gazette des Beaux Arts for August con tains a very interesting letter from M. Foliard, in which he gives an account of his discovery of the long lost tapestry, woven from Raphael’s cartoon of tho Coronation of the Virgin. It was used for the decoration of the high altar of the Sistino Chapel, while the other ten ta pestries were suspended along the lower part of its side walls. After Raphael had finished his immortal cartoon (1515-16) they were sent to Flanders. The tapestries woven from them arrived in Rome in 1519, two years before his death. Nino years later, when (1537) Rome was sacked by the furious soldiers of the Con stable de Bourbon, they were stolen and car ried to France, where, after being offered for sale at Lyons in 1530, they were purchased by the Constable Anne de Montmorency, who, in 1555, generously restored them to Pope Julius III. They remained at Rome till 1789, when they were again abstracted from papal keeping, and 6old to certain Jews, who, supposing that the gold thread which entered into their composi tion was of considerable value, destroyed the one representing Christ’s descent to Limbo. Finding that the amount of the precious metal which they obtained from it was ot very little value, they sold the other tapestries to some Genevese merchants, who in their tarn dis posed of them to Pope Pius VII., by whom they were once more restored to the Vatican in the year 1808. .Since that time nine have hang iu the gallery of Pius Vfcb, but one knew what had become of the tenth. Pas8AVant, in his Life of Raphael, (vol. ii, p. 211) had suggested that it would perhaps be found rolled up and forgotten iu some corner of the Papal Palace, an idea which has happily been verified by M. Puliard. After searching without success the workshop iu tho Vatican, where the tapestries used iu the Sistine Chapel are kept aud repared, and fruitlessly visiting the Pon tifical factory at S. Mitchel, where many old tapestries are preserved, this gentleman was about to give up in despair, when a foitunate conversation with one of the smarter work men reanimated his hopes. At this man s suggestion he returned to the Vatican, and there, in a room ou the^second story belonging to the private apartments of tho Pod^ called the “Stanza della predica Dei fA*gliati,” discovered the lost treasure hanging on the wall, together with seven other tapestries, one of which as representing Leonardo de Vinci’s Last Supper, is of peculiar interest As M. Paliard made his discovery on the 27th of February, 1869, wo are at a loss to know why he has kept it secret for four years. The Coronation of the Virgin, which exactly corresponds to tho description taken by Pasavunt for tho Papal catalogue, is enframed in a border of flowers, fruits, birds, sirens and genii of small dimensions. The subject is divided into three superposed rows of fig ures, God, the father, with the Cherubim at the top, Christ, the Holy Spirit, m the form of a dove, and the Madonna attended by aogels, in tho middle, and SS. John the Baptist and Jerome with two angels at the bottom. These two saints were here introduced in honor of Leo X.; John because his real name was Giovanni de Medici, and St. Jerome with his faithful lion, because he took the name of Leon X. on his election. M. Paliard mentions a drawing of this composition at tho Ambrosian library, and another at Oxford, both by Raphael. In tho latter SS. Peter and Paul occupy the places afterwards given to SS. John and Jerome. One peculiarity of the newly found tapestry is that unlike the other tapestries, in which the drawings are revers ed, this is woven in the same sense as the car toon. The reason is clear, for otherwise God the Father would have been represented as giving the benediction with his left hand, and holding the globe of the world in his right; the Virgin would have beeu seated to the left of our Lord, who have crow’ncd her with his left hand, aud St. John, besides giv ing up the place of honor to SL Jerome, would have pointed to the divine lamb with his left hand. Now r that the tapestry has been fonnd, one can not help hoping that the far more valua ble discovery of the cartoon from which it was woven will some day bo made. Of this, however, there is but little hope, not only on account of its comparative frugality, but also because in this case it will have escaped even greater perils than those which only seven out of the eleven Lave survived. “Their survival under the barbarous treatment they have re ceived is,” says the Academy, “as remarkable as that of some of tbe weak, defenseless spo cies of animals in the Darwinian account of the struggle for existence.” Cut into strips and pricked with pin holes for the use of the workmen, they remained rolled up at the Flemish factory until 1629, when Reubens, theu ambassador from the Archduchess Isa bella of Spain to the English court, spoke of them to Charles L, aud at his request obtain ed them for Whitehall. After the revolution, thanks to Cromwell, they were purchased by tho government for £300 and placed at Hamp ton Court, whence, on account of the danger from fire to which they were exposed, they have boon lately removed to South Kensing ton.

A very interesting meeting of the Master Mechanics and Proprietors of the several shops in this city was held at the efflee of Hou. C. A. Nutting, on Monday afternoon, to consult as to the recommeudatiou of a young man from this LegislaMve Diatrict for the po sition of scholar at ihe College of Agriculture and Mechanics at Athens. Mr. Nutting, thinking it would be well to make the appointment from that class of the "body politic,” the mechanics—this time had requested them to as semble acd consult, leaving it all to them. The com mittee wore composed of Mr. C. D. Findlay, chairman, Mr. £. Crockett, J. 8. Schofield, Matt Thor., on, James Boon, and T. C. Nesbitt. After consultation, they recommended M.-stcr John Dabord, an apprentice at the Macon A Brunswick Railroad. We have no doubt that the appointment wdl be male as recommended.

A comical story conics from Paris, the au thority being a coirespondent of the Tall Mall Gazette. The Shah of Persia, when in Paris, went to tho Jardin des Plantes, and was very much pleased with what he saw there, aud with the courtesy of the directors; so much so, indeed, that he made notes of the names of the men of science, with the view of “remembering” them, iu the sense in which people who hope to get something ask to be “remembered.” The other day His Majesty’s compliments arrived in the shape of “lions” and “orders,” which count for a good deal in Persia. Unhappily, the Persian monarch somewhat dashed tho pleasure of tho “deco rated” men of science by an awkward acci dent. Ho had noted down tho names of M. M. Geoffrey, St. Hilaire, Milne Edwards, and other savauts ; but in company with them, he had also written the names of somo of the “extinct animals,” whose relics are preserved in tho museum; and unluckily the tao sets of names got mixed up together. So it happened that when the men of science received Persian decorations, so also did tbe megatherium, the dinothcrium, and other “fearful wild fowl” of the same character. It is supposed that Charles Harmony of Reading, Pa., tried to get Mrs. Mary Herbert to elope with him, and she would not. The two had high words at tho hotel where they stopped in Reading. This was one evening. The next morning they appeared to be cool, and calm and contented. Harmony asked Mrs. Herbert to take a boat ride with him on the Schuylkill ubove the falls. She consent ed, and while they were going towards tho river Harmony invited a young man named Hoffman to accompany them, and he did. Harmony had the oarB, and Hoffman discov ered that he was rowing with might and main with the current, which w'as driving towards the falls- He remonstrated, but Harmony apparently worked tho harder and said noth ing. Hoffman jumped before it was too late and succceoded in roaching the shore by swimming. The boat with its two unhappy passengers soon took a leap with the torrent, twenty feet down amongst tho boulders. It was dashed to pioces, aud both Harmony and the lady wero killed.

At tbe window leading to his store room he placed a loaded pistol, oonocaled from view, and so attached that if any one should at tempt to raise the wiudow, the weapon would be discharged. Two days thereafter, when his wife was from home, Evans, at his school not far off, heard the repoit of a pistol and immediately ran to his house. There he fouud a man named Elliott, badly shot, al though not mortally, through the right breast. Elliott explained that he wait riding along the road, and hearing an unusual noise, thought to raise the window to learn what wus the matter, when he was shot by the concealed pistol. Evans thinks that hereaf ter he will have no tionble in peeping his provisions. A DISOEACLFUL SYSTEM. The Chicago Tribune discourses as follows The divorce practice in the Cook county Courts has long been a scandal and a disgrace. It is now something worse than this. The loose practice which is tolerated has become so common and familiar that tho most bare faced frauds are perpetrated either without attracting any attention whatever, or without stimulating the Judge to take any action to ward reform. The facility with which fraud ulent divorces are hurried through the Courts is partly the result of too general a statute, and partly of the lax practice of treating this class of cases which tho Judges have acquired on account of tho largo number wuich come be fore them. The Illinois statute provides as regular causes of divorce adultery, impotence, bigamy, desertion, extreme aud repeated cruelty, habitual drunkenness, and convic tion lor felony. Bat, in addition to these prescribed causes, the Court has the broad lititude to giant di vorces on any other ground which it shall deem sufficient. Several other States have similar laws. Tbe State of Connecticut gives the same Latitude to judges. The State of Kentucky allows divorces for all the above- mentioned causes, except for adultery. A trial by jary is prescribed in this State only in those cases when the defendant appears and denies the charges in the complainant’s petition. Divorces of a fraudulent natu*^, as a matter of course, never come to a trial by jury. It is the practice of our local courts to refer to a Master in Chanoery, who very rarely fails to re]>ort iu favor of a decree, which, as a rale, is then granted without fur ther ceremony. The general character of these trials before the Master in Chancory may be inferred from the circumstances that certain divorce-shyster prosecutes more than half the divorce business in Chicago, which turns out an average of two divorces day. The Independent used to pay Theodore Tilton, when he was its editor, $7,500 per an num, and after its purchaser. Henry U. Bow cn, purchased the Brooklyn Union, he made Tilton’s salary as editor of the Union $7,500 also, yielding the duplex chief $15,000 per annum-the highest salary paid to any jour nalist in America. Bowen and Tilton, as ev erybody knows, had a serious disagreement, lesnltiug in Tilton’s resigning his position— first, from the Independent, and, a few weeks after, from the Union. Bowen, who now an nounces himself in the Independent as oditor, publisher and proprietor, gives the roal edit or, the Rev. Wm. Hayes Ward, $5,000 a year; the Rev. Washington Gladden $4,000, and two or three other clerical gentlemen con nected with tho editorial department, $3,000 each. Rev. J. Dougherty, reotor of the Cathe dral in Baltimore, and Vicar General of the diocese, has retired on account of ill health t and Kev. L. 8. Leo has been appointed reotor.

Commercial, Sept. 4. As we w» nt to press yesterday morning, a large force was still busy at work to extricate August Norbeigh Irom tbe well in which he was buried by the falling of tho walls on the day previous. It was then supposed tbo un fortunate man would be rescued long before the break of day, bnt he was too deeply cov- rday morning it was fonud that it would take several hours yet to remove enough of tbe rock ani dirt to allow Norbeigh an es cape. A communication was effected wilh the suf fering man, through which water and eatables were passed, which, iu a considerable degree, helped him to endure his ulmost killing pain. The good work of removing the crushed in walls continued till ten o’clock, when the cry saved at last,” fell from every mouth os Mr. Norbeigh was raised from the crashing rock and dirt to a more comfottable and safe oosi’ioti on the solid earth. There were hun dreds present who w* re wild with excitement, and just aa glad to mee the victim of tLis sad accident restored *.o his terror-stricken family il be w.re a son or biothcr. Mr. Norbeigh ww covered by tbe falling walls at 4 o’clock Tuesilay afternoon,and at 10 Wednesday morn ing, haviug been beneath tbe cruah?d weight ol twenty-live feet ot clay and rock eighteen hours. It seems beyond the limits of the possible that one should be in sneb a condi tion a d still live, and so it was scarcely thought ere the man was rescued that enough of life would be.left to stand the terrible shod. Tbe city physician. Dr. Yonnkin, had been called and was on hand when Mr. Norbeigh was raised. An examination was made wbicb disclosed the fact that no bones were broken. The body and limbs are con- sider*bly bruised, but it was impoRgiUe to tell to what extent he suffered internal inju ries. The doctor thought best to let bin |>a- tieut sleep, in which condition he found »iru at a late hour last evening. He wus too weak to move a muscle and could only speak with difficulty. r T r Letters Held for Po.tagc.
