SATURDAY, DECEMBER 14,1872.
AN avalanche of Italian beggars is being poured into New York. Already, since November 8, 2,000 have arrived,and the cry is still they come. How the tuneful hand organ will resound through our streets next summer!
AN explanation of Sinclair's contesting the "will of Mr. Greeley is to be found in the fact that the stock held by him is the controling interest iu the Tribune. Colfax, Conkling,him of the ambrosial locks, Ayer, of cherry pectoral fame, and Samuel Sinclair, who seems bent upon illustrating in himself how sharper that a serpent's tooth it is to have a thankless brother-in-law and uucle, all seem to be engaged in a conspiracy to rob two orphan girls and thwart dead Greeley's will. This will and should kill the New York Tribune..
AGAIN the Credit Mobilier Investigating Committee has held a meeting, and again with closed doors. If these men accused of accepting bribes are not guilty, why do they not demand an open investigation Honesty never yet was afraid of open doors and daylight. If this thing continues further the country will have a right to believe and will believe them guilty of all that has been eharged, irrespective of the report of the committee. Committees have been known to whitewash characters for considerations, the same as gentlemen of color conceal the blotches and fly specks on our ceilings
OUR dispatches announce that the "lion" of the Senate in the way of visitors, yesterday, was General Hartranft, Governor-elect of Pennsylvania. Simon Cameron performed the ceremony of in troducing the General to all the Senators Hartranft and Cameron both have stolen public money. Both have prostituted our election system, by buying votes and perpetratiug most gigautic frauds upon the ballot boxes by stuffing and repeating. There is not a sane man in the country moderately posted in the news but knows this to be true, certainly not a single Senator. Aud yet one of these creatures, a Senator from a great State, introduces his "pal," Governor of the same State, to an admiring crowd of the law makers of the land. Is it not about time that all jails and penitentiaries be burned, books on criminal jurisprudence be destroyed and statutes repealed? This outrageous system of ours which lionizes those large plunderers, and cages numberless wretches who steal, perhaps, to sustain a miserable existence, is too monstrous a hoax on justice to be tolerated. We never think of Cameron without becoming reconciled to the dual division into which orthodox Christianity has divided the hereafter.
The Beecher-Woodlmll Scandal. Mrs. Pauline Wright Davis, whom Mrs. Woodhull cites as a chief witness in the Beecher-Tilton libel, writes from Europe utterly denying any knowledge whatever of the alleged affair. Mrs. Stanton, whom the Wopdhull also mentioned as being cognizant of the affair, denyed possessing any such knowledge, at the time the scandal appeared in the Weekly. Beecher and the Til tons, husband and wife, have said nothing. A confession by them would, of course, settle their guilt. No denial they could possibly frame, could be weightier than the standing protest of their silence, their continued application to their professions and uninterrupted friendly relations. Beecher and Tilton have written, spoken and lived themselves into high places in the minds and hearts of their countrymen. They have not been, and will not be dislodged, except by their own deeds, and better proof of the failure of their lives and the wrongfulness of their actions will be required than the maudlin utterances of two ladies who, lacking in purity aud chastity of character and lives, instead of reforming have adopted the novel method of attaining that eud, of establishing a philosophy or theology, the cardinal doctrines of which seem to be that what has commonly been known as filth is in reality cleanliness, impurity is purity, and the absolute unreiuing of all the passions, and the wildest and most indiscriminate sexual indulgence is chastity. Bagnios, or as Brokmeyer, in his essay on Goethe's Faust, terms them, "negative familis," are, according to these charming procuresses, the real temples of conjugal felicity. More than one penitentiary bird, caged because of an attempt to take a short cut to fortune,has adopted the maxim of Proudhon that all "property is robbery," and he, therefore, is as good as the rest. The desire of these ladies to become respectable is commendable, £tjougii fetlr is
psKHiUar* r#
form of their lives will be found more efficacious to that end than this style of inverting definitions, if it is not as agreeable. "Aim high'' is a most excellent maxim in archery and ethics and thing a usually effected by an energetic adheren to it. The Woodhull undoubtedly had it in mind when she heaved eight columns of mud at Beecher and Tilton The one serious mistake she made was in throwing her filth directly up and then uot moviug. "What goes up must come down," say the children in one of their games, and children, after all, are wondrous w'se, as the muddy Woodhull can muddily testify.
A Chaldean Account of Hie Deluge. The London Daily Te'egraph has received from Mr. George Smith of the British Museum, the subjoined account of the record of the deluge, which, as was announced a day or two ago, he has lately deciphered from the Assyrian monuments "The cuneiform inscription which I have recently found and translated, gives along and full account of the deluge. It contains the version or tradition of this event which existed in the early Chaldean period of the city of Erech (one of the cities of Nimrad,) now represented by the ruins of Warka. In this newly discovered inscription the account of the deluge is put as a narrative into the mouth of Xisuthrus, or Noah. He relates the wickedness of the world, the command to build the ark, its building, the filling of it, the deluge, the resting of the ark on a mountain, the sending out of the birds and other matters. The narrative has a closer resemblance to the account transmitted by the Greeks from Berosus, the Cualdean historian, than to the Biblical history, but it does not differ materially from either the principal differences are as to the duration of the deluge, the name of the mountain on which the ark rested, the sending out of the birds, etc. The cuneform account is much longer and fuller than that of Berosus, and has several details omitted by both the Bible and the Chaldean histo rian. This inscription opens up many questions of which we knew nothing previously, and it is connected with a number of other details of Chaldean his tory which will be both interesting and mportant. This is the first time any in scription has been found with an account of an event mentioned in Genesis,

A Ten Thousand Dollar Bible. In the book store of Mr. Bouton, on Broadway, there is now on exhibition what is certainly the most valuable copy of the Holy Bible ever compiled, it represents the industrious toil for thirfy years of an English collector of Biblical prints, etchings, engravings, original drawings in oil and water colors, aud authoritative or curious editions of the Scriptures, and is now roughly valued at $10,000, though its real price may very likely prove to be much higher. The complete text used is that of Dr. Kilto's edition of King James' Bible. But this is but a fractional part of the sixty huge folio volumes through which it is spread. Sometimes the reader will turn over fifty consecutive pages of illustrations between these scattered fragments. Such subjects, for example, as "Susanna and the Elders," or "Daniel in the Lion's Den," are enriched with scenes of illustrations drawn from every field of art—the couveut missals of the medieval ages, the strange, fanciful, strikingly false drawing of the Italian masters," the grotesque works of Dutch and German painters, aud the later aud more truthfill efforts of modern artists. In all, this wonderful monument of loving devotion to a worthy hobby iucludes no less than 30,000 illustration's of various kinds, some of them worth from $50 to $100 each, and extracts from some thirty editions of thesacred text. Such a treasure ought speedily to find a purchaser in some of our few great libraries, where it would be an unfailing spring of delight and instruction to artists and men of letters.

The Credit Mobilier Investigation. WASHINGTON, Dec. 13.—The conducting of the Credit Mobilier investigation in secret gives rise to the most scathing condemnation. The committee met again this morning, and Mr. McComb testified for two hours, and his testimony has made a marked sensation. Since the adjournment of the committee Ames' friends have been excited and anxious, while those of Mr. McComb have been radiant. The main points of his testimony were in the affirmative of the evidence already published in the press, and the origiual letters of Oakes Ames are produced by him. McComb swore positively that one of the members accused received fifty shares of stock from which he realized $200,000. In reply to a question from Judge Poland Mr. McComb stated that he had no hand in making public the proceedings of his suit in the Pennsylvania courts, aud would have preferred not to have had them published, as he was on friendly terms with the members of the House who were inculpated iu the Oakes Ames list.
The Greely Will Case.
NEW YORK, Dec. 30.—The Greeiey will case came up in the Westchester Surrogate Court. After a long debate eoncerniug the settlement of the suit, the examination of Miss Sampson was resumed, at the conclusion of which the Surrogate decided that the executors of the will of 1851 had the right to appear in court. The Surrogate ordered that John P. Cleveland, Mr. Greeley's brother-in-law, be appointed administrator ad-interum. While the case is in progress the fact was developed that Ida Greeley had deeded half the property left by her father's last will to her sister Gabrielle, merely reserving the right to superintend her education and affairs during her minority. The case was adjourned until December 18. On that day, unless some settlement is made, Reginald Hart, another subscribing witness, will be examined. Two other wills made by Mr. Greeley have been discovered-to day, one bearing date of 1857, aud the other 1861.

$260,000,000 for the Chase Family. ^Yesterday while the crowd at Weisiger tlall was going into convulsions.at every turn of the wheel, B. P.Chase, E^., of this city, quietly received intelligence of an event fraught with consequences similar to those of a lucky number in the lottery. The great English chancery suit of Tomley vs. Chase heira, invoiviugaa worth £§2tQQQ,QQQ, oy about
$260,000,000, which hasbeeu in the courts of London for the last thirty years, has been decided in favor of the Chase heirs, who number about 100. Daniel Webster was at onetime counsel for the American Chase heirs, -and Robert Peel and Sir John Russell once endeavored to make a compromise with the heirs through Mr. Russell. We congratulate Mr. Chase upon his good fortune. It is certainly better than an election to Congress.
Acc KDING to the Syracusi (N»w York) Journal five hundred pages of Mr. Seward's autobiography, which was uncompleted at the time of his death, are already written, or are in notes ready for engrossment.

FIFTY MILLIONS POUNDS OF WOOL!

WHAT DOES THIS GREAT LOSS MEAN
It means a prreat advance in Woolen Goods. It means one, two, three or lour dollars advance upon a Shawl or pair of Blankets. It means 20 per cent, more for Waterproofs, Cassimeres, Jeans, Dress Goods, ftc. Already the advance has commenced in. New York and otuer large cities.
GOOD NEWS FOR THE PEOPLE!
Before the fire goods had declined heavily, prices up, we had recently bought more than
