The body of a young lady named Mary Grubb, the daughter of a well-to-do farmer near Wilmington, Delaware, was found in the Christiana river, on Friday afternoon, and a strange mystery hangs over her death. On Sunday she went from the house of a Mr. Price, of Wilmington, where she had been visiting, to visit a friend in another street, but as she did not return it was supposed that she had gone home, and the folks at home did not suspect but that she was still at Price's until Thursday, and then the facts of ber disappearance were advertised in the papers.

Her body was found on Friday, and upon examination it was found that her feet were tied together, thus depriving her of any power to save herself. The coroner has held a partial inquest, but there is no verdict as yet. It is thought that she committed suicide. She was a very pretty and interesting young lady. -Mail advices have been received from Panama to the 17th, giving details of the troubles and military movements ou the Isthmus, which have lost their importance since conclusion of the treaty of peace between the rebellious coast States and the Central Government.

Accident and Loss of Life. Between nine and ten o'clock last evening the steam dummy car No.

9, of the Frankford and Southwark (Fifth and Sixth streets) passenger railway, Philadelphia, was struck by the fast excursion train from New York, at the connecting railroad crossing, at Harrowgate, and completely demolished, and at least two of the passengers killed, and large number wounded, nine of them very seriously, The two whose names were 89. certained were Thomas Adams, who lived on Foulkrod street, near Main, in Frankford, and Mrs. O'Donnel, who lived on Church street, near Orchard, in Frankford. Mra, O'Donnel's body was found after the collision on the cov of the locomotive, with her hend severed completely from the body. Adams was a dummy engineer in the employ of the street railway company, whose day off duty it was, and he was returning to his home in Frankford as passenger.

His head was badly mashed. As soon ItS information of the occurrence reached the depot another dummy was sent out, and the wounded who were not able to go to their homes were brought to the city and taken to the Episcopal Hospital, where they were attended by the physicians in charge. There were four men, three women and two children, all of whom bad received serious wounds of the head, and all but one of them were insensible and continued so up to the time the reporter left the hospital, more than two hours after the accident. The ouly one who recovered consciousness was a lady, who, owing to her peculiar condition, WitS forbidden by the surgeons to talk at all.

Their character and appearanco resemble the well-kuown "Mautis or praying mantis, termed by the French prie Dieu, The monkish legend of St. Francis Xavier extolle it for its demure, quiet and devout behaviour, holding its prehensile-long, strong fore-legs beset with sharp spines--in a folded, elevated position, as if in prayer. Alas! its stealthy, sneaking approach toward some innocont, unsuspecting fly, is its devotion, aud a sudden extension to grasp and devour is the prey, if not the prayer, of this demure creature. They are very puguacious; the Chinese pit them againet each other like game-co*cks.

They fence and parry like skillful swordsmen, till the head of the other is whipped off. There were specimens of sine ore of equal bulk from the mines of Landisville, this county, and from Chester county pine cones from the border of Delaware Bay, near Lewes, and from Wildcat Falls, on the Susquehanna river.

The committee appointed some time ago to have the loose numbera bound, reports thirty volumes realy for binding, and, as with the additional cases voted to be furnished, nothing was done for want of funds in the treasury.

Some one sighed and said, that some large hearted, wealthy individual would immortalize himself by donating a few thousand dollars, or that more would join, take one or more $5 shares, and become joint owners of a museum that before long will be, nay, is credit to the city--and verily, if it could be properly displayed, would bring in a fine income, even at ten cents admission, and prove a source of entertainment as well as impart valuable information. But the society is left to struggle, and even many who are members, fail to come up to the mark. Why us it thus? Under Scientific Gossip, Mr.

F. Smith mentioned that a man told him he had killed a glass-snake the day before. He tried to catch it, but the tail broke short off; it is also called jointed snake. Mr. Stauffer says this name applies to a species of lizard, the Ophisaurus ventralis, of the family Zonurido of Mr.

Gray. Being very brittle, (as some others are,) the tail is easily separated, when caught by it. Mr. Smith also mentioned the blue racer and prairie rattlesnake, but failed to capture any. He nevertheless did remarkably well in getting what he did.

Mrs. Gibbons made some remarks on larvae found by her feeding on garden vegetables. After a pleasant session, the society adjourned to meet on Saturday, October 30th, 1875. DEDICATION OF SOHOOL-HOUSE AT NEFFSVILLE: As had been announced in THE EXPRESS of last week, the new school-house at Neffeville was dedicated on Saturday afternoon. The meeting was organized by appointing Dr.

E. J. Bowman, president, and several of the citizens of Netsville, vice presidents. Short addresses were made by B. Danner, David Evans, Prof.

Shaub, county superintendent, and A. I. Hostetter, of Michigan University. But few persons were present, the patrons of the school being busily engaged in harvesting their corn and tobacco, and sowing their grain. The only director whom we saw at the meeting was Dr.

E. J. Bowman, to whom the patrons and pupils of the school are much indebted for the interest he has taken in providing proper school accommodations. If the patrons of the schools will now work with the board and the teachers in properly grading and maintaining the schools, their children will be greatly benefited, and the schools will soon prove that they are just what was needed long ago. The school-house is the symbol of the culture of the people, and Manheim township should be proud that it hag at least one graded school within its rich and fertile borders.

The house is built of brick, has two rooms, is well furnished with desks and seats, pretty well ventilated, and is, on the whole, well calculated for its destined purpose. There is nothing extravagant or useless in its construction; indeed we think considerable money should yet be expended in improving the ground, and adorning the rooms before it will be as attractive as it should be in order to properly educate, not only the pupils who will attend its sessions, but also the people of our county. M. M. Fielis, has charge of the secondary department and Miss Mary Barr, of Lancaster, and a pupil of the Normal School, has charge of primary department.

Mr. Fielis has taught the school for the past two years, having in his charge during that time about 90 pupils each session. To look after the physical well being of such a host in the old house, small and badly arranged, was not an easy task. To teach them properly was impossible. We congratulate the teacher, pupils and patrons upon the needed and desirable change from the old house to the new.

TIER SAD DEATH OF ALBERTW. MARKLEY: The Philadelphia Times of this morning contains the following additional particulars of the death of Mr. Markley Tho mystery in regard to the disappearance of Albert W. Markley, of Camden, WAR solved by the discovery of the body of a drowned man on Saturday morning, in the Delaware river, at Allegheny avenue wharf. A description of the body having been telegraphed to the Central Station, General Sewell, Dr.

Markley, a brother of the missing man, and Captain Heins proceeded to the locality where the body had been found, and at once recognized the remains as those of Albert W. Markley, The body had evidently been in the water about 48 houra, It was placed in the custody of Coroner Goddard and afterwards removed to his late home, No. 420 Cooper street, Camden. Mr. Markley had been snifering for some time part from fistula in ane, and had been informed by his physician that he must submit to a painful surgical operation.

Since then ho has seemed somewhat depressed in mind. On Wednesday, having collected about 810,000, he deposited 88,000 in bank, leaving the balance at home. On Tueeday evening he took tea with John C. Bullitt, but exhibited no signs of any mental derangement. On Thursday morning ho left his house and visited Esterbrook's pen factory later he was seen on Shackamason ferry boat proceeding to Philadelphia, and about 10 o'clock he was seen in a Union car.

This was the last seen eulneta of him until the discovery of his body on Saturday morning. Mr. Markley was about 50 years of age, and a native of Lancaster county, Pennsylvania. When quite a young man he became clerk of the State Bank, Camden. He was afterwards assignee of the great Richarde estate in West Jersey, and then cashier or president of the Farmora' and Mochanies' bank, Camden.

The Camden and Amboy Railroad Company made him one of its directors, and at the time of his death he was political manager for ite executive officers. Ho was stockholder of the Port Norris railroad, and was some time ago appointed receiver for it, the judge refusing all security. Ho was also Vice President of the Camden and Philadelphia Ferry Company. The remains have been turned over to his family, and Coroner Goddard hold an inquest in the case yesterday and found suicide by drowning while temporarily insane." The funeral will be held on Wednesday at neon, PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION: The argument on the bill in equity, filed by the city of Lancaster, praying for an injunction to restrain the Penneylvania Railroad Company from raising North Duke street bridge fourteen inches as contemplated by them, was heard on Saturday afternoon. The city complain that the company have declared their intention and are about to proceed to raise the North Duke street bridge, over the railroad, to such an extent as to damage the properties in the vicinity, by forcing the waste and other water back upon these properties; that the bridge was originally built on the established grade of the street by the city, as empowered by act of Assembly, which gives the corporation the sole control over such grading of their streets, with which the Pennsylvania Railroad Company have no legal right or power to interfere.

As it was understood that the railroad company was about to proceed with their work, the city ask for a preliminary injunction to restrain them from so doing. H. M. North, appeared for the company, and the question was argued at length. The Court said that as the allegation of the appellant was that the grade of the street would be altered to great inconvenience to the citizens, and the altering of the grade war wot denied, they thought a preliminary injunction ought to issue.

The injunction was, therefore, issued, and the city filed a bond in the sum of $500, to cover any damages accruing, should the injunction be die- ated with City Solicitor J. Hay Brown, for the appellant, and H. M. North appeared for defendant. No.

2 Mu.i.-Building Improvements: No. 2 cotton mill, South street, owned by the heirs of John Farnum, of Philadelphia, exhibits the most cheering sign of any manufacturing establishment in our city at present. The foundation is now being dug for an additional building on Prince street, occupying the southern half of the front lot, running out to the street line on Prince, and extending south as far as Conestoga. The dimensions of the new building will be 173 feet in length by 53 feet in width. It will be only one story in height.

The cellar will be 9 feet in depth, and the walls will be run up four or five feet above the grouud, so as to be on a level with the windows of the first floor of the main building. This improvement contemplates the removal of certain machinery from the upper floors to the ground floor, and whilst it will greatly increase the conveniences of the mill it is not expected that it will add to its productive capacity.

But then, we suppose it would merely be a arrangement. FATAL RAILROAD ACCIDENT: Reuben K.
