ABOUT TSIE NAVY YARD.—Although the
;present force of workmen employed in the navy
_yard is but little over one half of what it was some
three weeks since—having diminished in that time
from 2,700 to about 1, 5 00 meu—and &though the pre
.sent season has not been any too favorahle for the
prosecution of work, the yard, nevertheless, has
resumed its old air of business-like activity, and in
every workshop the clatter of hammers, or the
hustling of saws, gives a sort of cheerfulness to the
place.
The present foirce of labor is distributed as fol

The Miami is expected to sail in a week or two.
her trial trip was to have taken place yesterday,
The only one of her officers reporting during the
past week, was William C. Fey, captain's clerk.
The second of the steam sloops, the .bmiata, has
been considerably delayed by the weather. She
will be launched in about six weeks hence, simul
taneously with the Monongahela, (whose frame
work is completed.) Her stern bearing and shaft
are being inserted, and the painters are busily en
gaged Alton her.
The Rhode Island is coaling and loading with
stores for the several blockading squadrons. She
will probably leave to-day or to-morrow, with a
cargo consisting of 5,000 lbs. fresh beef, 350 tons of
coal, 300 bbls. potatoes, etc.
The following are her officers who have reported
klieneselwes during the past week : Joseph Sems,

TROUBLE AMONG TILE N EGLEY BMDT-GUARD.—
In compliance with the request of a military orga-
Tiiratitai, until recently entitled .0 be °skied Nag
ley's Body-guard," we publish the following, state
ment of its grievances:
We, the undersigned, for the information of our
friends and the public, make the following, state
ment: That'we enlisted under a man who styled
himself Capt. Vaneleve, and, bad it not been for
Lieuts. Murphy and Miller, would have been sold
to the highest bidder, or in any other manner
would have been disposed of as he saw fit. Now,
we would caution the public not to trust him. Wo
also pledge ourselves to raise a campny for Lieut.
Murphy to act as captain, and Lieut. Miller for
first lieutenant. We do this to prove to the public
that it is the captain that has our dislike, and not
the lieutenants. He imagined that, once in Louts
ville, he could dispose of us as be would a flock of
sheep. Hoping this statement will clear our lieu
tenants of any blame in regard to the dissolving of
Our company,
We are yours,
Sergeant Morse, Private M. Brennen.

To make this statement cum prehensible, we should
state that on Thursday last Limits. Murphy' and
Miller arrived in Pittsburg in charge of the above
body guard. They had just returned from Louis
ville, where Gen. Buell informed their captain very
emphatically that Gen. Kegley was to have no body
guard, and that the men must act as cavalry or quit
the service. They therefore returned to Pittsburg,
highly indignant the manner in which they had
been treated, and published the" above statement.
Perhaps when the other side of the story is heard
the complexion of the affairs may be somewhat
changed.
CHESTER VALLEY RAILROAD.—A meeting, to
reorganize this company, was held yesterday noon,
at the Exchange.
Mr. John F, Gilpin was called to the chair, and
Charles O'Neill, Esq , was appointed secretary.
The committee then presented their report. The
report had a series of resolutions proposing a plan
for the reorganization of the company. The main
features of the propositions are the consolidation of
the bonds with their interest, and also the merging
of five shares of stock into one.
Mr. Gilpin said that the committee considered
the plan the moat practicable and equitable one to
bring the road under the control of those most in•
terested.
Mr. Stokes opposed the resolutions. He thought
that they would have the effect of depreciating the
value of the bonds, and bring their price down to
almost nothing.
Mr. Wickersham remarked that he was the largest
bondholder. He declared that the bondholders re
linquished nothing by the proposition , but gained
everything_ The stockholders woutdbe wiped out
when the mortgage became due, in 1872, and now
it is proposed to give them a small interest. By the
new plan the road would be taken out of the hands
of the trustees. and lawyers, and come into the pos
session of those most interested.
Mr. Gilpin said that the bondholders seemed to
be the most anxious about the adoption of the plans
of the committee
The meeting then took an informal recess
OPENING OP THE NEW PENNSYLVANIA RAIL
ROAD BRIDGE.—The Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany are now using their new bridge over the
Elchnylkill, at Gray's Ferry. Last week a locomo
tive passed over the structure, and yesterday morn
ing a large freight train from the West also crossed
the bridge, and passed cm dorm to Washington
street wharf where the grain elevators have been
erected, and where measures have been taken to
accommodate the immense amount of business which
will concentrate at this point.
While it is not designed to take the local traffic
away from Market street, it is probable that nearly
all of the through business will be transferred to
the terminus at the southern part of the city.
ACCIDENT.—On Sunday evening, an elderly
man, named Brutus Nortb, slippel - and fell upon
the front step of his dwelling, on Germantown ave
nue, below Manheim street, in the Twenty-second
- ward. Mr. North was quite seriously injured about
the head.

Monthly Meeting of the Young Men's
Christian ASSOCIRtiOII.
The regular monthly meeting of the Young Men's
Christian Association was held at the rooms, Chestnut et.,
above Tenth, last evening. The attendance was mode
rate. In the absence of the president, on motion of Mr.
Sparbswk, Mr. Shillingsferd took the chair. Tho cha r
man opened by reading the Forty -sixth Psalm, and calling
upon Mr sparliiiwir to lend in prayer.
Mr. Net \rat next elected to officiate as secretary pro
tem., after which the minutes of the precious meeting
Aire lead by Mr. Wanamaker, tmd approved.
The report of the Board of Managers was next heard,
the usual monthly essay having been omitted.
On calling for the reports of the various committees it
was found that neither one of them was ready to re
port.
In conformity to the rules, the proposal of new mem•
bf.rs ♦cas then in order. This resulted in tile proposing
of one name as as associate member.
Fifteen minutes were next occupied in a soda/ way by
the members.
DR. OSLER'S REPORT
On resuming proceedings, the report of the Committee
on the State of the Association, of winch Dr. Odor is
chairman, was called far and read DP. °slue prefaced
his report with an apology—stating that it had been hur
riedly written, and that in offering it he might expose the
fact of his never having learned to read.
Much of the report was of a general and rather indefi
nite character. We had sketched a full synopsis of it, but
as the representative of a morning contemporary, who
as present, generously volunteered to print the report
(which would have occupied nearly two columns of no
l'ress) entire, we will merely give the following points :
The committee assumed that Young Men's Ohristisn
Associations were as indispensai le to the salvation of
the masses of young men as Sabbath schools were to the
mural and spiritual culture of children. In reviewing the
detailed operations of this and similar associations, and
the various appliances employed In them, the use of
tents and tent meetings was not eulogized. So, too,
in speaking of the inducements held out for young
men to frequent their rooms and use their library, to
was candidly acknowledged that they had practically
failed, and that from the simple fact that the city had
provided munineently for this want of young men long
befete this iigetreietieb Came into existence. Then again,
there was to the unc , nverted a cold austerity associated
with religion, that repelled them from coining to the
rooms; nor had there been an adequate effort made to
dispel this erroneous inipression. With regard to the
devotional exercises at their meetings, it was held that
there is too much praying in them, to the exclosion of
literary exercises. And these latter, even so
far SIB maintained, had signally tailed in their le
gitimate object, and so, mainly, because the essay
ists had been too much in the habit of giving
religious disquisitions, instead of effusions of a
* more literary character. Then, also, the essayists
were injudiciously limited in the time to which the read
fag of the essay was confined. In the estimation of the
comm time, there ought to be a radical 1.;:#1.4111 in this
particular. There wits also tan mu, time the
soefordopottimit of tbeir ih‘tead of dove=
flog a few minutes once a month in this way, the report
recommended an occasional whole evening to be given to
this object. In this way, new members, instead of re
maining strangers in their body, would beco...e identified
with it and feel tbemselyes at home in it.
DISCUSSION UPON THE REPORT.
The report, en motion of a member, was unanimously
accepted by the meeting, after which a discussion
upon its adoption was in order, the speeches being limited
to fire minutes each.
Mr. Sparlittwk hoped that duo time would be given
for reflection before adopting what would involve
such a radical change in their rules and practices as an
=MEM
The next speaker thought it would be very old-fogyish
not to adopt the report submitted. as it
anybody ought to ask for. He thought it was very impru
dent to keep on ".plodding alone forever, in the way
their lettui.„ , four pears ago, when this naseelatlon
was formed" Times bad changed since then, and it
was their duty to change accordingly.
Mr. Patterson, with his usual good sense and
Scotch logic, rose to concur with what had been said by
his Brother Sparhawk. The report, to his mind. was
too intangible to be swallowed whole, though there was
much in it that Will excellent. But his impression was,
that the suggestions of the report should be better
digested before adopting them. as an association, said
Mr. Patterson, they had sadly deteriorated since they
had "left their first love," which they had done the
iustant they came out prominently before the world with
their flaming reports and noisy revivals, and assumed
alines which did not belong to them at all. They !rid
made a grand mistake when they left their humble quar
ters of earlier days to out a figure in big hallo, and blwaaa
their acts before the world.
Mr. Hiram Ward said he Was very much pleased with
the report. It evinced much discriminative Dower, and
he would say to the Doctor—the writer of if—that he had
now n ore confidence in the latter's powers of diagnosis of a
diseased body than he had ever had before, and bethought
he should, in future, be willing to trust any ordivarp
case in Dr. Osler's bands. • lie had always been a friend
of this aseociation, but he had long since seen its pro
spective decline. And this was mainly, he said, in con
sequence of the fact that no meeting could be held by
them without the introducdon of “death and cross
hones." Unless there was a sort of sham funeral impro
vised at every meeting. it was voted as being below par.
His remarks elicited much merriment among the mem.
hers.
MORE SPEEOR ES
At the dose of the discussion the following resolution
wee offered by Dr. Harper, and subsequently adopted:
Resolved, That the report be returnee to the com
mittee, and that they be requested to draw up a set of
resolutions embodying the substance of the report, and
that they be appointed as the subject of discussion for
the ensuing meeting.
At this juncture Ur. John Sparhawk delivered a speech
of considerable length, referring to the report, and
making a general review of the past history of the asso
ciation, pointing out its mistakes, and suggesting re
forms.
Mr. Bentoa differed with the previous speakers who
regarded thie association as in a decline. On the other
hand, it was now passing through the school of expe
rience, and in the future, he believed, this period in its
history would be looked hack to as comprising ite best
days. He had foreseen this stale of things in tee asso
ciation long ago, and knew that the reforms Were then
necessary which were now contemplated. Be believed
that they ought is be more social, and, if need be, fight
the devil with his own weapons. The hour of adjourn
ment was not reached until nearly ten o'clock.
SUPERIOR FAMILY FLOUR.—Mr. C. 11. Matt
eon, dealer in fine family Groceries, Arch and Tenth
streets, has on hand a superior brand of wheat Flour,
which is being largely introduced among lovers of good
bread. His celebrated "Silver Flint" Buckwheat
Flour is also a great favorite with housekeepers.
EXTRA FAMILY FLOUR AND BUCKWHEAT
S. B. Gottwalla, dealer in Flour, Fruits, and
Produce, No. 812: Spring Garden street, has deservedly
the reputation of keeping the best 'Buckwheat Flour, and
The choicest brands of extra Family Flour, to bebad any.
where. Bit prices are regulated to suit the times, and
are bwer than anywhere else in the city. These facts
account for the immense patronage whirls hie store re

him an early call, and convince themselves of its supe
riority and cheapness, bus kis advertisement, in another

" THE Gas TURNED OFF."—These words
have a forbidding sound, even to us in Philadelphia. It
means the last quarter's bill has not been paid, or the
suers is frozen, or some other ill which we have not
time now to look into, but must get our "dips " and
bottles, or, if old housekeepers, an all candlestick, feeling
the while that to-morrow will see it right; but the capi
tal of the C. S. A. is to have the gas " turned off," which
means a little more there than it does here—no material
and no mechanical ingenuity to produce it. Truly the
rebels rill find it a " no light" task to overthrow the
United States government. Let any one visit the Con.
ilnental notch or has, Stokes' hundy•tande Clothing
Establishment, of an evening, and they will see how
touch of the splendor of the pima is indebted to an
abundance of good light.
A MODEL MAN.—The author of . Amyas
Leigh, in discoursing on the advantage of outdoor ex
ercise, and physical health and strength, says that his
idea of a men is Ono who loves God, and can walk
one thousand miles in one thousand hours; who breathes
the free air on the free earth, and who, at the same time,
can hit a woodcock, dtctor a horse, and twist a poker
round his finger." If he wants us to agree with him,
the author must add: "And procures his Clothing at the
cheap and magnificent Establishment of Granville Stokes,
No. 609 Chestnut street, (one door above Ilaruden's Ex
press °lnce.")
