William D. Kelley.
[Prom •• Notable Men In the House.” By Howard Gly-
don.] _
Judge Kelley is the orator ef the House. In
possession ef a pleasing person, a rioh, musiaal
voice; an almost unexampled command of words,
brimming with ideas (from his eager sympathy
with'all the great forward movements of the time);
rejoicing in a sonl on fire with indignation toward
the Wrong, and loving as a woman’s for tho Eight;
he cannot be otherwise than an orator —the people’s
orator, the pleader for the Right, the advooate for
the wronged ; and the more lowly and despised the
victim, the more earnest his advocacy. The oham
pion of the masses—a leader and a captain in the
marches of civilization —his olarion-shouts quicken
ing the dead, oonfirming the weak, oheoring the
living, and resolving all hearts on victory or doath!
The Union of these States, and, the great principles
of Liberty, for tho security of whioh that Union
was established, in him have their most eloquent
advocate, and Treason its best hater. All honor to
Philadelphia for her wise improvement of this
eventful period, by her eleotion to the notional
councils of William D. Kelley. Her glorious old
patriots of* the early time will sleep all the better,
knowing that this eagle-eyed sentinel walks the
ramparts. , ln ,
William D. Kelley was born on the 12m of April,
1814, in the city of Philadelphia. His father, David
Kelley, son of Major John Kelley, who served with
the Jersey troops throughout the Revolutionary
War, was a successful watchmaker and jeweler,
until a short period before his death, in 1817.
After the dembe of her husband, his mother estab
lished a leading boarding-house, aod at a proper
age her only son wa3 placed, as boys in moderate
circumstances in a city are, at the nearest school,
where he obtained the rudiments of an English
education. ~.
When little more than eleven years old he en
tered the printing-office of Jasper Harding, as a
copy-reader, and during his fourteenth year ap.
pi enticed himself, for a term of more than six years
and three months, to Messrs. Rickards & Dubosq,
jewelers. Be had stipulatedfor freedom at twenty,
in view of his extreme youth, and has often said
that luck was against him in this, as he came to v
tho responsibilities of manhood at a time when the'
business of the Country was so depressed that he
oould find no employment, and had to devote his
firstyear to accumulating debt.
In the spring of 1835 be found employment with
Messrs. Clark & Curry, jewelers, of Boston, with
whom be remained till tbe spring of 1839. As du
ring his apprenticeship he had been an active
member of the Youth’s Library Company of Phila
delphia, so here, though unable to unite with its
membership, be availed himself of the library and
exeroises of the Meabanic Apprentices’ Library.
Upon leaving Boston, where he had already es
tablished some reputation as a popular leoturer and
effective stump speaker, he returned to his native
city, and entered tbe office of Col, James Pago as
a student of law. He was a radical Democrat, and
took an active part in the campaign of 1840,’’speak
ing almost daily from its opening ia.June, to its
close in November. Fortunately, perhaps, for
him, the result was disastrous to his party, and he
applied himself to his professional studies with a
. determination to make up, if possible, for the time
hehad wasted, and thus seoured his admission to
the bar at the expiration of the shortest term of
study allowed by the rules of court.
The professional career of Mr. Kelley was rapid
and flattering. Crowded with distinguished men as
the Philadelphia bar was, he had been admitted to
practice but little more than three years, when
lion. John K. Kane, Attorney General of Pennsyl
vania, called him to the office of Proseouting Attor
ney, and confided to him the administration of the
criminal law in the city and county of PMladel
-shia. When Attorney General Kane.. was made
udge of the District Court of tbe United States,
Mr. Kelley tendered bis resignation, and resumed
bis general practice, This, however, proved to bo
for but a brief period, for in about four months
Hon. Benjamin Chnmpneys, having assumed the
office of Attorney General, pressed Mr. Kelley to
resume that of Prosecuting Attorney, whence, in
the following spring, 1847, he was transferred to
the benoh of the Court of Common Pleas, Quarter
Sessions, and Oyer and Terminer, by Governor
Franois R. Shunk.
Few men have known so rapid a transition, to
qualify them for which bb much severe study and
intellectual aptitude were necessary. In less than
eight years from the time he packed up his tools
and quit the work-bench, he was performing the
functions of Judge of a oourt, the jurisdiction of
■which extended over more than 6U0,000 people,
and 'embraced the various law and
equity administered by the oouits of Westminster
and the Lord Chancellor.
How satisfactorily to the bar and people he per
‘foirned his duties was shown at the election of
1851. By an amendment to the State Constitution
the judiciary had been made elective, and the
tenure of office reduced from life to ten years.
Judge Kelley had deoided an important and exci
ting eleotien-ease against his party, apd when the
Bmcoratic Jndioial Convention met it refused to
consider his claims to a nomination, and presented
the name of a distinguished lawyer instead of his.
The people, however, made him a candidate, and
elected him by a larger majority than had ever
been given to any candidate for office whose eleo
tion had been at all contested in Philadelphia.
The Judge continued, notwithstanding this, to
vote with his old party until the repeal of the Mis
souri Compromise was offeoted. This act he re
garded as the sure precursor of great evils to the
country; and though he had, notwithstanding his
hnown sympathy with the Free-soil movement of
1848, maintained a silence becoming the proprieties
of his judicial office, he was open in his denuncia
tion of the Kansas*!?ebraska act, its friends and
authors. He assisted in creating the Republican
party, and in 1856 he accepted, with no possible
chance of election, a nomination tor Congress, and
resigned the judgeship.
Though certain of defeat, he stumped his district
vigorously; several of his addresses were reported
at length, add widely circulated in pamphlet form.
One of the earliest, known as his Spring-Garden
Ball speech, became a text book of the oampaign,
and was translated and .extensively circulated in
the German and Welsh languages.
.Again he opened 8n offioe, and entered at onoe
upon a BuooeEsful and profitable professional career,
to which he devoted himself until the People’s
party of his district sent him as a delegate to the
Chicago Convention. Though he went to the Con
vention to sustain the claims of his State, by sup-'
porting General Cameron so long as he should seem
to have a chance for a nomination, he frequently
informed his 00l leagues daring the journey that he
would And in Abraham Lincoln or Ben Wade the
candidate most acceptable to him. _
liming the exciting campaign that resulted in
the success of Mr. Lincoln, he devoted himself al
most exclusively to the interests of his party. It
iB said that he travelled more than six thousand
miles te address audiences in almost all the Border
Free States, from New York to Missouri, inclusive.
Meanwhile, the people of the Fourth Congres
sional district of Pennsylvania reversed the judg
ment they had entered against him inTB56, and by
a majority of over 1,500 sent him to represent them
in the councils of the nation In this grandest of.its
historic periods.
Mr. Kelley came to Congress an inexperienced
legislator, never having Bat in any legislative body;
but he came with loyal purpose, and bringing with
him a strong brain, a quick heart, and a resolute
spirit, already has attained that influential position
in the House that most men toil for through succes
sive years. In the debates of the great questions
now pressing upon Congress and the nation, Me.:
Kelley has taken a leading part, and his speeches
are not only remarkable for their oloqaence and
foroe, but have all the breadth and Bagaoity of ma
tured statesmanship.
Now, the ambitious young man who may road
this sketch Will ask, Whence, the-source of this
man’s great popularity and success? First of au,
It is to »e sought in his hearty sympathy, with the
masses; he has Laid his own warm heart alongside
the great heart of the people, and felt its great
■pulsations until his own has learned to beat in sym
pathy. Then much does he owe to his life-long,
unspotted integrity, in alt relations and amid all
temptations And greatly is he indebted to the in
domitable will which the Almighty graciously
granted him with bis being. The oppression on his
seal, the hand of a muscular forearm grasping the
horn of a bnil’s head—the motto, “ Take hold fear
lessly.” reveals one oi the secrets of his success.

THE 4STH REGIMENT, P. .V.—Messrs.; Evans A.
B assail, theno less patrioilo than enterprising manufac
turers of and dealers in Military Furnishing floods. No;
418 Arch street; have obtained permission from the pro ■
per authorities to recruit one hundred men for service in

charge of Colonel Thomas Welsh. As an; extra incen
tive. Messrs; E A H, as a personal matter, offer a
bounty of ten dollars to each of the hundred men, in ad
dition to all other bounties to which they will be entitled.
The spirit manifested by thiß active young business house
is worthy of all praise, and from indications at their
warerooms—now an authorized recruiting station—their
efforts to fill up the ranks of the 45tb will be speedily suc
cessful. ■
The New Ironsides.— The gun ear
riages for the New Ironsides are a massive combination
of wrought iron and gnn metal, and, when complete, will
weigh between seven and eightthonsand pounds. Eleven
inch Dahlgren guns, each weighing 1,600 pounds, will be
mounted upon them . .
The arrangements to manage. the guns with perfect
ease and to take up the recoil appear to be perfect. Of
the whole number required, Mr. Carr, of the Phoonix
Iron Works, makes eight, and the rest are made at Mer
rick & Son’s, in this city A number of the carriages
are now in the yard. The New Ironsides will make a trial
trip on Monday next, after which she will return to the
navy yard for the purpose of dismantling and taking on
board the remainder of her stores. Considerable anxiety
is manifested to hear of her success or failure. The Iron
sides has but three decks, the orlop or lower deck having
been'dlßpensed with, on account of the light draught of the
vessel. ' . 1
Fires.—Yesterday afternoon, between
one and two o’clock, a fire broke out in the coiding fac
tory of Joseph Taylor, on Lydia street, below Sites

belonging to E. M, Davis, located at Sboemakertown, on
tke line of the North Pennsylvania Railroad, was de
stroyed by fire. The building was rented to M. Murphy,
and contained eight tons of hay - and a considerable
quantity of lumber. The loss is estimated at *7OO. The
barn is fully insured. The Fellowship Steam Engine and
Germantown Hose Company were early upon the ground,
and rendered valuable service in extinguishing the
flames.

Shocking Accident- —Premature
EXPLOSION.—A serious accident occurred on Wednes
day, near the Wire Bridge, in the Twenty-fourth ward.
A party of workmen were engaged in blasting rocks.. A
blast was prepared and a slow-match lighted. After
waiting a Bbort time, and as there was no; explosion,
John Fitzmorris, and a man named Bogley, went into
the Quarry for the purpose of again lighting the fuse.'
While there a premature explosion occurred, and both
men were injured in a shocking manner. Bogley was
taken to the Episcopal Hospital. His recovery is consi
dered diiubtfnl. Fitzmerris was conveyed to his resi
dence, in the Twenty-fourth ward. His injuries, though
serious, are not considered dangeronß.
Camp of Instruction Established.
—The recruits for old regiments are forwarded at once
to Harrisburg, where they are sworn in. From thence
they are forwarded to a camp of instruction, in order to.
perfect them in the drill and manual of arms. A camp
of instruction is to be formed at a place known as Liar
den Grove, Bitaate at Oakland. Messrs. Smith A Bnngy,
of Allegheny city, are to erect the necessary buildings.
The camp, it is expected, will' be ready for occupancy in
a few days. Ills estimated that the buildings will cost
310,000. As yet no officer has been designated as com
mandant of the camp.
1 The Philopatrian Institute.—The
teeth annual excursion of the Philopatrian Library In
stitute came off at Atlantic City on Monday last, where
the day was Bpent in a very pleasant manner. The pro
ceeds, amounting to about two hundred and fifty dollars,
will go far towards liauidating the debts of the Institute.
The Sossini Musical Society now numbers nearly fifty
nctiveand contributing member*. It ia proposed form
a society for the purpose ,of learning elocution; this,
togrther with the debating and musical societies, offers
inducements to yonng men to beerme Philopatrtans.

ing of printers will be held at Franklin Hall, Sixth and,
Ar ch streets, on Saturday evening, for the purpose of
taking tto proper measures for the formation of a mili
tary company “in for the war.” The craft generally

will at once be opened for the enrollment of names.
After the company is complete, then' tbe officers will be
elected. A large number of printers from this city have
already enlisted in defence of the Union, and there is not
the least doubt but that another company can be speedily
raised. r
j Meat for the Families op VOLUN
TEERS.—Mr. Geo, Stockbergor, a beef-butcher, stand
ing on Girard avenue, near Lewis street, who has already
furnished to the families of many of our volunteers sup
plies of meat, proposes that this plan be adopted by all
the butchers throughout the city. During the-present
-warm season, meat ieft over cannot be preserved, and
sdoner iban it should spell it might very.properly be be
stowed to deserving families. Thousands of pounds of
mi at go to waste weekly, and the plan suggested, and
now carried out by Mr. Stockbergor, is a good one.
I Postal Affairs.—During the three
months ending June 30,1882, there were received at the
post office in this city . 2,828 ship letters j 3,249 registered

The opinions of medical men,' after having been
instructed by Prol. BOJ.LBS, 1220 WALNUT Street,
Philadelphia, in the application of Electricity as a thera
peutic agent.
Extracts of Letters from medical men, after having
fully tested the discovery Of Prof. BOLLES:
W. R. WELLS, M. D , Buffalo, N. Y„ after a year’s
practice, writes to Prof. B. fta follows:
I think my faith fully comprehends the fact that Elec
tricity, correctly applied, according to yonr discovery, is
abundantly competent to cure all curable diseases. My
experience and success, after extensive practice, folly
warrant this assertion,. Were I sick with a fatal disease,
I would far sooner trust my life in the hands of a skilful
Electrician.than all the “pathiea” on earth besides
Bufvapo, N. Y. , W. E. WELLS, M. D.
d. McCarthy, m. d. .- .
*; I.em fully satisfied that Electricity, when understood
according toits’polaritiea and their relations to tho fixed ’
laws of the vital economy, as taught by you, Is the most
powerful, manageable, and efficient agent known to man
for the relief of pain aud cure of disease. I would fur
ther state that. I have for the past few weeks used Bioo
tricity in my practice, to the exclusion of nearly all other
remedies, and have been eminently successful, and con
sider it a universal therapeutic.
Davtoh, Ohio. D. MCCARTHY, M.D.
P. W. MANSFIELD, M. D.:
For the last nine months I have made Electricity a spe
cialty, and my faith is daily increasing in its therapeutic
effects, and I believe, when applied according to your
discovery, it will cure all curable diseases, among which
are numerous cases never benefited ny medicine.
Bbfvaj.o, N. Y. P. W. MANSFIELD, M.D.
AMOS GBAY, M. D.:
I would recommend my brethren in the medical pro
fession to avail themselves of an opportunity of becom
ing acquaihtedwith Prof. Hollos’ new method of applying
Electricity, which I think i* pot known to medical men,
except those who have availed themselves of his instruc
tion, for i nin very confident that much injury must be
the result of a wrong, unskilful application of bo power
ful an agent. , AMOS GRAF, M. D.
Detroit; Michigan.
H.G. KIRBY, M.D.:
What I have now to say is from actui 1 observation, as
Thavo spent most of my timofor the last two months with
Prof. Boiles, and have witnessed the effects of the Elec
trical agent on from fifteen to twenty-five patients a day,
suffering from almost every form of ekrouio disease; and,
as atrango as it may appear, in a majority oi cases, a per
fect cure was effected in from five to fifteen days. And
I will here remark that most of his patients were afflicted
with long standing complaints, considered incurable by
all other known remedies. H. G. KIRBY, M. D.
Cikcinmati, Ohio.
DAYID THURSTON; M. D.: i
I believe your discovery to be a reliable therapeutio
-agent, and lee! it my duty to recommend it. Since I have
received instruction from you I have applied it in cases
of Aphony, Bronchitis, Chorea, Aiqgnorrhoea, Asthma,
and Congestion, and find that 1 have the same success
that yen had when I was under your instruction. I in
variably recorom-nd medical men to avail themselves of
an opportunity of becoming acquainted with your new
nutbod of apolying Electricity.
Detroit, Michigan. DAVID THURSTON, M. D.
"MARVIN GODDARD. M. D.:
i v ' Prof, Bollee: A great revolution in my mind and prac
tice has taken place since I became acquainted with yonr
new discovery of applying Galvanism, Magnetism, and
other modifications of Eleotricity-asa curative agent. I
have found by many experiments that Electricity is a safe
therapeutic agent in all acute and chronic coses when
applied according to your discovery. 1 desire that medi
cal men should become conversant with your discovery.
OLKVJttAXn, Ohio. M ARVIN GODDARD, M. D.
Rochester, N. Y., Sept. 10,1859.
Prcf. Boi.lxs— Dear Sir : The more I investigate this
system of practice, the more confideut l am that it is all
powerful to meet the ten thousand diseases to which flesh
is heir.
You, who first discovered Electricity to be a reliable
therapeutic agent, should he considered a great-benefac
tor of the race, for it is the only reliable system of euro
for the woes arid ills of suffering humanity. Itis strange
that physicians have become so wedded to their several
systemd, -brought up from the darkness of past ages,
that they will close their eyes against tho light now beam
ihg;forth through this system of:practice. AU other sys
tems I regard as the morning star to the rising sou.
P.SHEDD.M. D.
Prof. BODIES:
The nearer I conform to your syqtem of application,
the more successful X am, and as I have examined all the
guides and works published upon the subject, and seen
nothing in reference to j our theory, I do not hesitate to
sav I believe it to be original with you, and the only reli
able system extant for curing disease.
Respectfully yours,
Tonoxro. • OHAS. BANDALL, M. D.
The, opinion of a medics! man, after thirty years’
practice, fifteen in Allopathy and fifteen in Homoeo
pathy:
Prof. Bou.es—Dear Sir : Ineverhave, since yon gave
me instruction in your new discovery of applying Electri
city, and God forgive me if I in the future ever do, practice
either Homoeopathy or Allopathy. I have been strictly go
verned by the philosophy you laid dowr, and for the best
of reasons—namely: That I am generally successful, and I
firaxkly say to you that I am done with medicine forever.
My success has been great since I have been in New
ark, N. J. 7

could Tarnish over one thousand, fully showing that he is
well known to the medical end scientific world as the dis
coverer ef all that is reliable in the therapentio admini
stration of Electricity, and that all other operators now
in the different cities (except those .notified by him) are
using Electricity at hazard, and Pref. B. takes this oc
casion to caution the community against charlatans.

PURE COD-LIVER OIL.
The repugnance of most patients to COD-LIVER
OIL, and the inability of many to tatee it at all, has in
duced, various form* of disguise for . its administration
that are femiliar 'to; the Medical Profession. Some of
them answer in special cases, but often the vehicle
neutralizes the usual tffect of the Oil, proving quite as
unpalatable and of less therapeutic value. The repug
nance, nausea, Ac., to invalids, induced by disgust of the
Oil. is entirely obviated by the use of our CAPSULES.
COD-LI 038 OIL CAPSULES have been much used
lately in'Europe, the experience there of the good re
sults from their use in both hospital and privateprastice,
aside from the naturally suggested advantages, are suf
ficient to warrant our claiming the virtues we do for.
them, feeling assured their use will result in benefit and;
deserved favor. Prepared by
