FROM BATON ROUGE.
A Rebel Account of the Battle—A Victory
Claimed for their Land'forces.
(from tbe Grenada Appeal, August 11.]
Camp on Comm Bivbr, August 7,1882.
On Saturday, July 28, we received marching orders,
«nd on Sunday the trains. left for Jackson. It was now
announced that- a descent upon Baton Boom, and the
possession of the Mississippi river, was contemplated.
The plan was a very feasible oris, notwithstanding our
limited land force. Gen. Breckinridge was to attack the
enemy in the rear of the town, and. destroy or capture
his troops, while the ram Arkansas would engage the
gunboats, end prevent their rendering any assistance to
their comrades on shore The Arkansas had been re
paired, her crew renewed, and she was again ready.for
action. We'waited at Tangipahoa several days, to as
certain definitely that she was prepared. In the mean
time the Quartermasters were busy hiring teams and en
gaging transportation. But, with all their endeavors,
their, success was in no way commensurate with the
wants of the army.
. On Sunday, the 3d lust., Gen. Breckinridge advised
Gen. Tan Born that he would be prepared to attack
Baton Bouge at daylight the following morning. Gen.
Van Dorn replied that the Arkansaa would not reach a
pot it ion .where she could participate in, the fight until
Tuesday morning. It was then definitely determined
that the attack Bbonld be made at daylight on the morn
ing of the Bth, the ram Arkansas, of whose steady and
mSnterrupled progress down the river we had been con-
Btantly advised, cooperating with the troops. At ten
o'clock Monday night, August 4, the troops, about 2,400
In all, advanced from their camp on Comite river. TJ>e
men were in the finost spirits and confident of aooom
lyliAhin : their purpose before breakfast time. The march
of ten miles, over a smooth,' sandy'road, between well
cultivated plantations, was cohducted with quiet and
o.der. ■
AN UNFORTUNATE MISTAKE.
; But about dawn there occnrred one of thoße terrible
misadventures that are frequently: the, harbingers ef
glosm and disaster. While the column was advunotng,
about three miles from the city, the road skirted on one
aide by a dense piece of woodland, and on: the other by a
field of sugar cane, there came avertible volley of mus
ketry from *the woods, where a"body of partisan rangers
had been posted. It was evident at onoe that there wits
a mistake, but the coniusiou incident upon the alarm
could.not be obviated, and several casualties occurred.
Brigadier General Belmn’s horse fell Into a dttch and
disabled.' that gallant young officer, his leg being badly
mashed,. The troops were thus deprived of bis valu
able services in the field, and he was compelled to re
main realive away from the scene of action, while his
bold'hoys were winning fresh laurels. Capt. Alexander
IT. Todd {alnothtr of Mrx.Lincoln), of General Helvin's
Staff, was instantly killed , and ,Oapt. Willis 8. Roberts,
commanding the Fourth Kontuoky, dangerously wound
ed. Cobb s Kentucky battery was also rendered hors de
combat, the gun-carriages and caissons being broken and
the pieces'rendered unmanageable.
TIIB ADVANCE.
Order being restored, the column advanced, and soon
the line of battle was formed.
occupied the right and that of General Buggies the left.
The advance was made in four lines, that of the left over
h very rough country, across ditches, through sugar-cane,
over fences—a very fatiguing and exhausting march. It
was ten minuttß to five o’clock when we Brat brushed the
enemy. Ttey were in good position, nnder ooter, and
opened out upon our advance with considerable pre
cision and effect It was, however, but the work of a mo
ment to dislodge them. Like so many coveys of
.partridges, they started up and flew rapidly before our
advancing columns; the boys giving vent to exulting
cheers, as, with fixed bayonets, they followed the retreat
ing Yankees. Thomorning was quite foggy, and a heavy
jnlst hung over the entire landscape, rendering IS difficult
to plant our batteries bo aa not to operate either upon one
or the other.of our wings. Our own Hires were then con
verging towards a common centre, the' enemy fleeing to
wards his camps. But it was not without loss that we
thus drove them in. They sought every possible oovert
place, and rallying, gave a peppery salute to onr men.
Their batteries were also admirably handled, and belched
forth devastating columns of canister, grape, schrapnel,
shell, and solid shot. -One, by one, however, they were
forced to give back. Limber up and to the rear
march, was the constant' order, and had it not
been obeyed, all their guns would have fallen in
our possession. As it was, the Fourth Louisiana
charged a battery twice, each time at considerable loss,
find were finally forced to lose their trophy, their com
mander, Colonel Alien, falling, shot through both legs.
This somewhat ’demoralized the regiment, which had al
ready been distinguished for its good conduct. Captain
Hughes, commanding the 22d Mississippi, fell dead while
leading a charge; Colonel Sam Boyd, of the Louisiana
battalion, was severely wounded in tho arm: the gallant
21st Mississippi, while charging ahead, lost its colon, but
the battle-flag wus immediately grasped bFa lieutenant,
who, bearing it aloft was shot down, and a third man
seizing it received a death wound. But onward went the
left. General Buggies was conspicuous for daring, and
bis aid, Golonel Charles Jones, of Louisiana, white de
livering an order, was struck down by a shell and seri
ously wounded. Our troops were now in the camps, and
though tempting enough none stopped to pillage. Tbe
3d, Bth, and 7th Kentucky regiments were going ahead
like a hurricane. Nothing could stop their fearful and
determined progress.
OPERATIONS ON THE BIGBT.
While the left •« thus forcing the enemy into town,
the tight wing, nndur General Charles Clark, did not lag
behind. General Breckinridge was himself with this
division, and his presence had a magical effect upon the
men.. Bis tall form seemed übiquitous—here, there,
everywhere where there was peril, where there was an
enemy to drive or a position to gain. Of the gallantry
and noble bearing of his young son Cabell 1 should not
apeak, were it not that he is as modest as he is merito
rious—a worlhy scion of a noble stock. General Breck
inridge ltd personally several chatges, and toward the
close of the action, coming up to the Fourth and Firth
Kentucky, who had fallen back utterly exhausted* he
drew his Sword, and with one appealing look, said, in his
-...dear, murtcaltones. “My men, charge!” Tbischargeis
”*■—tlbed to ns by an officer who participated, as one of
the mOH, ‘Uopul , ln( j effective acts of the battle. The
men rushed for-— a i a B 0 pi! tieular order, firing at and
*? m ?„' ltog . th , e ‘l*’™ 5 ’ w , mr “ determination that oonld not
be thwarted, driving them lurthar tin. they had yet been
driven. But, during the whole engagement, the Fourth
and Fifth Kentucky displayed the utmost gallantry
Worthy of the laurels they had won at Shiloh. Better
men never followed a flag or faced an enemy than these
two regiments. Colonel Thomas H Hunt, of the Fifth,
was in command of the brigade and received a serious
shot in the left hip while actively engaged on the field.
THE LAST CHARGE—THE DAY WOH.
During the frequent pannes of the fight, when the roil
of musketry end the sharp crack of artillery waß hushed,
all.eari were strained to catch some note of intelligence
from the ram Arkansas. Long since she should have
been engagirg the enemy's gunboats, which had already
poured a dreadful rain of shot and shell into our midst.
But there was no welcome sound from the guns or our
little vessel. Dr on all tongues were the queries: “Where
can the Alkammsbe’f” “ Why is she not here’” and
there came the unwilling thought, has she failed us, and
can all this deadly, terrible struggle have been for
nought f We had t already driven the enemy one and a
ba'fmUes fromthe position where he was first encountered.
We had seized at! his camps, and forced him .through the
smbuibsof the town. Then came the la it charge, and
right nobly did our exhausted soldiers discharge their
duty. Way worn, covered with dnst, and consumed by
the beat of battle, the gallant boys plunged headlong
into the fight, and before them fled the Yankees. Iu vain
did they bring up their reserves. We drove them all
quite to the liver, completely under the protection of
their gunboats, many of them taking to the water. Itwas
then that General Breckinridge ordered a recall. He
had received a message that it would be impossible for
the Arkansas to participate then iu the engagement, but
that by Iwo o’clock she could take her part. Slowly and
with reluctance onr troeps fell back, although exposed
to the heavy firing of the gunboats. About ODe mile and
a half frem town they were halted, and the poor, wearied,
jaded feilowß threw themselves upon the ground to rest.
The New Administration in Kentucky.
[Correspondence of the Cincinnati Gazette.],
Fbakxfobi, August 18.— I This morning at 11 o’clock
Hon. James F, Bobiusou was inaugurated Governor of
Kentucky in the hall of the House of Bepreseutatives,
the Senate and its officers being present. Mr Bobinsen
made the best speech for the occasion I ever heard. He
possesses the entire confidence of the Union party of
Kentncky,and he will prove himself equal to the emer
gency. D. C. Wickliffe, of the Lexington Observer, and
Jicporltr, Is to be Secretary of State, and James W.
Tate is to be Assistant Secretary. These are most ad
mirable appointments, and will meet the approval of all
Union men. The Senate, by unanimous vote, re-elected
Hon. John F. Fish Speaker of that body.
MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS.
WHY BANKS WAS NOT BEINFOBOED.—The
Washington Star has the following: “Up to half past
five IVM., for one hour and a half after the commence
ment of the engagement. General Banka did not dream
that he was contending- with an enemy in force equal to
fata own.. At half past five, he despatched the command*
ing’generat to the effect that he was driving the enomf
before him. At six P. SI., when his troops essayed their
terrific charge upon the rebel batteries, their infantry re
sponse from the cover of woods and thick underbrush
first revealed their overwhelming strength to General
Hanks, who then despatched a messenger to the rear to
notify General Pope of the fact. Then it was that Biok
ette was ordered to pußh forward with all possible ra
pidity to his assistance. We saw Bicketts advance, enter
the field on the double- quick, reaching it in the shortest
possible time after intormation of the real strength of the
enemy had been received from General Banks The
truth is. General McDowell’s corps was in the best pos-
Bible position to serve any emergency, and would have
been in tbe fight bey<nd peradventnre had the enemy not
contrived to* conceal from General Banks and his whole
corps d’armOe his real strength until an hour too late to
permit Bicketts to he ordered up in time to arrive on the
field before nightfall put an end to the engagement for
the lime being ”
GREAT HAUL OF COUNTEBFEITEKS—SeveraI
days since, Deputy United States Marshal Pierce and
Deputy Sheriff Olmstead learned frem several citizens of
West Webster that a family living in that town would
bear watching, and they suspected that they wore deal
dog in spurious coin. The officers went to work, and, in
a short time, obtained sufficient evidence to satisfy them
that the persons referred to were making counterfeit coin
at tleir rosideoce. Last night, about twelve o’clock,
Bierce and Olmstead went to the house in Webster, in
company with Constable Gidi’ingß, of that town, and
several citizens, surrounded it, and, at the proper time,
ItobinsoD, and Ed. Johnson, the notorious honey thief,
lying on the floor asleep. In searching the home, moulds
or dies for making quarter dollars were found, ladles,
plaster, speltrr, and all ibe paraphernalia of thß trade. ■
On the persona of those arrested were found four dollars
In bogus quarters.- The neighbors saw Bohinson a few
days since going from hie house to the woods with a tin
box. bot did not see him btiog it buck. A search In the
woods failed to find the box, but It will be found ere
long,— Rochester Union.
AN ORDER OF JEFF DAVIS STILL IN FOBOE.
—lt is .rather remarkable, even in this anomalous age,
that all printed copies of orders from the War Depart
ment issued by Jefferson Davis, when Secretary; should
not,have been sought out and effectually superseded, yes,
annihiljited, wherever found, so soon as he became
identified with rebellion. But a gentleman recently from
.West, Point informs the Newark Advertiser that the
present regula’ions governing the intercourse of the
cadets with theh niations and friends at the hotel on the
Point, which were maned ia 1867, are still to be seen in
every room, with the name of the arch-traitor, in capi
tals, appended. Although tbeordersderivedthelrvaUdity
from the officer and not the man, yet It ia repugnant to
every loyal man’s feelings to seethe name which has be
ceme associated with sj much that is infamous, brought
before' him’ in : each a connection as seemingly confers
jnpon its possessor power and authority stiff,
CASE OF HIDBOPHOBIA —An interesting little

General Clark's division
This building .is well adapted for .the purposes .in
tended, and it is now to be hoped that the old regiments
will speedily be placed on an equal footing, in regard to
numbers, with tbe new ones. That recruits hare not
been obtained faster is for the reason stated. Booruiting
for the old regiments in the other . States seems to pro
gress rapidly. Daily large squads of men joss through
the city on to the seat of war. About seven
hundred men, destined for old regiments, arrived yester
day morning, at two o’olock, from Now York, and were,
handsomely entertained by the Refreshment Oomnittess.
This makes about one thousand four hundred men who
have gone through up to the present time to be attached
to old regiments.
The different military encampments in the outskirts of ;
the ci’y are.beginning to assume a warlike appearance.
They are visited dally by hundreds of people. “Camp
Bulieek,” located on the North Pennsylvania Bailroad,
near Fisher’s lane, was visited by Colonel N- B. Kaeasß
and the committee, having charge of the funds subscribed
for Colonel Ellmaker’a regiment, who paid to each man
the extra bounty or *lO, and also presented each with a
gum blanket. The committee will visit the camp again
to-morrow and pay the extra bounty, to those entitled.
The gallant Bucktail Begiment, commanded by Colonel
L. Wtater; is meeting with great success. The “ buck
tails” areall thego, and are no rare sight, as they may
be seen in the hats of the many members of the regiment
who walk the streets and f6el prondof the emblem adopted
by the organization. Tbe old “ Bncktall beys ’’ won for
themselves on the battle- field an enviable reputation, and
we already'have heard it from good authority that they
were thedread of the rebels. Ono company, F, of this
regiment, was raised almost exclusively in Germantown,
and, on Tuesday 78 men were mustered in. But a few
more men are needed, who will b'e had in a day or so.
“ The United States marshals in the respect! vejdistricts,
the Mayor;'and chief of police, of any town or city, the

The War Excitement— Recruiting
JOB THE NAVY.—The rumor of a draft for the navy
is certainly not based upon any apparent depredation of
enlistments for that branch of the service, so for as oar
own city is concerned. Tho preeont-registry of accea.
eions to the nftyy, for the pert of Philadelphia, yriH com
pare favorably with that of any seaport city in the
Union.
AU circumstances cabstdered, keeping in view , the
comparative advantages, pecuniary and otherwise, to, be
derived from enlisting in the army* the list of applicants
for admission into tbe naval arm of the service compares
favorably with the former No doubt, the apprehension
of a draft may have a somewhat enlivening effect upon
the perceptive faculties of onr-would-be sailors: but be
this as it may, tbe rush for the shipping office” is al
most unprecedented Candidates for naval honors are of
nil sizes, ages, and occupations, from 4 the. lad of
14, fresh from school, to the toil-bronzed-mechanic of
50; all equally desirous of, sharing in the anticipated
recreation of a three.years cruise on the briny deeps
Anxious_parents, with still more anxious-looking strip
lings, daily crowd the office of tho shipping agency, and
calmly await that process known to the law, which ends
m Hie the prospective Jaok Tar from
maternal . control, and gives him over to the tender
merries of Uncle Samuel. There is a species of romance
about the life of a sailor, when viewed theoretically,
which has always an attractive charm for the youthful
mind, and cases are of every day occurrence in which a
young man of sixteen suddenly leaves, home and imme
diately turns np .in the shipping office, where in answer
to the stereotyped interrogatory “ What’s your ago 7”
boldly answers “twenty-one,” and net having the fear
of Hie law before him confirms his assertion with the usual
oath. When eustomorsof this stripe give rise to suspicion,
the shipping master peremptorily refuses to register
their names, but the more cute'Young: America occa
sionally manages to sail through with his false colors,
and the consequence is a great deal of trouble to all par
ties concerned, not the leaßt feature of which is the em
ployment of counsel to secure the freedom of the lad in
question.- Were the bounties now offered to recruits for
the army held out as an inducement to enlist in the sea
service, there wculd soen be an overplus oE accessions to
our gallant navy; however, in view of our rapidly aug
menting navy, it is most desirable that the stimulus now
given to shipments should continue.
The only shipping office for sailorß, landsmen, Ac., in
this city,-is located at No. 322 South Front sh eßt.-'Mr.
John O. Kighter, an experienced and well-trained sea
man, iu shipping master, which position he has held for
the test forty-five years. Mr. O. J. Onnningham holds
the office of assistant. During the past four weeks, the
average rate of enlistments has'amounted to
week, (during the present week about 25 per day,) mostly
landsmen; tbe general proportion of seamen being about
twenty-five per cent. In accordance with the orders of
the Navy Department/ five boys aro taken for every one
hundred men; every minor , must have attained his fif
teenth year, and produce an affidavit, Blgnbd by an
alderman, setting forth the consent of his parents to his
enlistment, bis competency to enlist, and hiß intention,
of serving out tho term for which he may he sworn-r The'
terms of service are one, two. and three years, at the
option of the party making application. If shipped for
three years and kept for a longer period, the p'areon so
detained shall receive one-fourth more thaa tils’ regular
pay. ,
The receiving ship (Princeton), lying opposite to ihe
navy yard, is continually receiving squads of recruits,
the number aboard recently amounting to over seven
hundred. Large drafts wilt necessarily be made from
those on board in order te fill up the complements of 'the
vessels nearly ready for sea.. The new Ironsides,’ Pow
.hatan, and Jamestown will be among, the first to draw
upon this force. The former or these will require, in
eluding officers, sailors, landsmen, etc.y a: fbree' of 580
men, some proportion of whioh mußt be made up from the
recently shipped seamen' on board the receiving ship.
The Powhatan requires 350 men, and is expected to leave
during the present week. Of , this number there will be
120 seamen, the balance being composed of ordinary sea
men, landsmen, firemen, boys, etc. j'
The pay of seamen and others is aa follows:
Seamen, $lB per month.
Ordinary seamen, $l4 per month.
Landsmen,: $l2 per month.
First-class boys, $lO per month.
Second, class boys, $9 per month.
Third-class boys, $8 ner month.
Immediately upon the qualification and admission of a
recruit aboard ship, he is duly drilled in the performance
of duties required of him, so that when transferred to
the vessel to which he may be assigned he is ready* to
undertake the labors of hfs situation immediately.
Recruiting Yesterday-Local Mi
litary —The work of roerniting was very satisfactory
yesterday—althongh the numbers added to. the old regi
ments now in the field was rather small. The great ne
cessity of filling up the regiments now in active service is
apparent to all, hut reernits seem to forget that by en ■
rolling themselves in these organizations they enjoy many
advantages not to Be had in the new bodies now in pro
cess of formation. The main objection to the old regi
ments was that the officers wore compelled to send the
men to Harrisburg to be mustered in. The proper au
thorities have finally taken the matter in hand, and this
very rerious objection, long overlooked, is now removed
A largo building located in Swanson street, above Wash
ington avenne, is now being fitted up as a place of ren
dezvous tor all reornitß enlisted in ibis city for the old re
giments. Lieuts. 0. I>. Griffith, Of the 82d, and John S.
Bifid, of 26th regiment, have teen placed in’charge of
the barracks. ’ Yesterday from fifty to one hundred men
were quartered there. As fast as the men are uniformed
they will be sent off to the different regiments in the
field.
, WJnle at the rendezvous, the recruits will be provided
with good rations by Mr. W. H. Dennis, who has long
been attached to one of the refreshment saloons. . The
building is admirably adapted for the purpose designed.
Ic is well situated tor ventilation. Tbe building is one
hundred and forty-seven feot long and thirty,seven feet
wide. In the second story a large, table has been put np
that the soldiers may take their meals in a comfortable
manner. The officers’ quarters for the transaction of
business ore olbo on the same floor. The third story has
been fitted up with double bunks, of good dimensions,
sufficient in number to lodge two hundred and fifty men.
Bathing tubs are also placed in a shed in the yard a, join
ing, for the convenience of the recruits. Any young men
who wish to join the old regiments can apply at the now
station in Swanson street, and all information will'be
furnished by Lientenants Griffith and Biehl.
The balance of the men enlisted in the Anderson
Cavalry will leave the city for “Camp Alabama,’’ at
Cariisie, this morning, at fifteen minutes past seven. The
men are obliged to be at the depot, Eleventh and Market
streets, at 6.45 A M, and report their names, so that
transportation can be furnished them. It is absolutely
necessary that every man so for accepted should be at
Camp Alabama to-morrow morning About two hnn
dred men have already left this city for the rendezvous.
I The .general order- or ;the War Department, giring
power to the United States marshal "and certain other
officials to arreßt officers and privates who may be found
absent from their commands, has had a very salutary
effect. The order reads as follows: 1
Afraid of Being Drafted —The
rush to tbe British Consul’s office for papers of protection
has greatly snbaided. The -number of applicants yester
day, althongh large, was by no means as great as a week
or two Bince Owing to (he vigitance of the authorities it
is almost a matter of impossibility for parties to leave tbe
city with the intention of escaping the draft, without
being apprehended. At present, certain members'of onr
Cits Councils are in New York, on business connected
with tbe regulation of the police. Beforaleaving the city
each member procured a certificate from Mayor Henry,
testifying that their visit was upon official business, and
not to avoid the draft about to be made. The following
is the form of the certificate: —-
rr; . ~ Office of the Mayor of the City of
ivity eem.j Fnn.ansLPiiiA, Pa , Aug, 16,1882.
To all whom, it may concern ■—This will certify that
Francis A, Wolbert, Esq., residing at —-4—, in the city
of Philadelphia, is chairman ot the Police Committee of
the Conucils of eaifi city, and that in company with said
committee and its offleervyhe is offloiaffy visiting the city
of New Yo k ■ and the city of Boston, to examine-their
station houses, Ac., and that his temporary absence is
without intent to evade any draft. In witness whereof,
Ac. ALEXANDER HENRY,
. - ‘ ; "' Mayor of Philadelphia.
Numerous other certificites have been famished to
private parties. This is, however, unnecessary, as those
whose intentions are honerablo can easily manage to
pass from ono State to another without being molested.
The West Philadelphia Children’s
HOME,—The Western Provident Society.and Children’s
Home was formed in fb'is city with 4he intention of
rrscuing little children from toe demoralizing influence
of intemperance and poverty, and give them a decent
education, a knowledge of honsehold affairs, and a moral
and religions training. Besides the children entirely
under the ..control of tbe institution, those: of parents
living at service have a shelter here for a small sum.
The home already contains several soldiers’ children,
and tons toe heart of the patriot is made fearless by toe
knowledge that if he pcrißbes in toe fore front of the bat
tle hla little ones will be cared for.
The institation is to.give employment and food to de
serving females in winter, and as the war wilt make many
widows, the comtnnnity should see that fnnds be not
lacking for this purpose.
There is no sectarian teaching there ; toe children at
tend several churches in rotation They are placed in
fomiließ at a suitable age. Tbe number at present in the
bnilding is forty, " There are ample accommodations for
more, but the treasury is empty. This a very deserving
charity. ’
A Noticeable ‘ Feature.—Among
Jbemany great features of the'different ward meetings
ht-ld In the city on Tuesday evening, to form National
Union Associations, we noticed that the gatherings were
the largest of the kind ever held in our city, and among
whom were a number of loyal Democrats, and in one of
the wards a Democrat presided. Never before did such
hatmony of feeling prevail at such meetings. Democrats
and Republicans seemed to have forgotten party, and
united 1 together In a common band to overthrow.this in
famous rebellion which is now desolating our country,
and which has had its origin in a political faction who,
like the old serpent, would rather reign in hell than serve
in heaven. We look upon this commingling of’party
men as an earnest of the bright, future that awaits us,

OOBCOBaN.—The preparations for ft proper, reception !,
of this dietioguiibed champion' of our liberties, whohas
suffered great privation and beenimmu-ed since the fa'al
day of the bottle of .801 l Bun invite and loathsome pri- :
Sons ln.the domain of Secessia, have been completed and
are on quite an extensive scale. The name oi this gallant
Irish-American chieftain will be a rallying cry on future
battle- fields, for in every Bkirmlsh or battle, no matter •
how small the number of' mom engaged, we find the sons '
of ihe Green Isle well represented.
The Irteh residents in onr city, to whom the name of
Corcoran is rendered donMy dear by the fearless spirit
which he manifested -in refusing to parade -his regiment ’
on the occaeion off the.recoptioh of the Prince of Wales
In New York, by his-unflinching bravery at the battle of
Bull Bun, and bis.’dariiig zoaUin behalf of the Union
when snrrouuded by traitors on rebel soil, me determined
to manifest their sense of gratitude by turning out to do
him honor. A meeting of the Fenian Brotherhood, of
which General Corcoran was formerly president, will be'
•held this morning, at in Sansom-street Hall;
when the final arrangements will be made as to the part
theyshall take in the procession. -- • .
The following:programme has been agreed upon:
Tbe military o-curt, nnder the direction ot Col. Keenan,*
of the 116ih Pennsylvania Regiment. trill form on Wash
ington Blreet.the left resting on Broad street, and tiie
right extending eastward. f.The various civic societies
who intend participating in tbe demonstration will form
on Broad street and. other streets adjacent thereto, and
will fall in the line of the procession after the military.
Upon the arrival of the train at the depot, at Broad and
Prime streets. General Corcoran will be received! with
an appropriate military salute, and will then be escorted
to the Cooper-Shop .’Volunteer Refreshment. Saloon, in
"Otsego street, ah invitation having been'extendedito and
accepted by him from .that organization, .the procession
meantime haiting at Front street;
After leaving the Saloon the procession will again
move forward, passing, np Front to Christian, up
Christian to Third, np Third to Vine, up Vine to
Twelfth, down Twelfth to Arch, down Arch to Fourth,
down Fourth to Chestnut, and up Chestnut to the Hall
of Independence, where . General Corcoran will be for
mally received and welcomed to the city by Mayor Henry.
The military will then march to Market street: where
they will be dismissed. 'After the reception in the Hail
of Independence, General Corcoran and .hfs suite will he
escorted by the committee to the Continental Hotel,
where apartments have been provided for’them, arid
where ho will probably address the people.' The General
will ride in an open barouche, that all may have an op
portunity of seeing him. ,
Colonels Coliia, Htecau, and Biddle have accepted the
invitation of the committee! to participate in the recep
tion. The music will be under the charge of A. Birgfield,
and it is the intention to have three full bands in the fine.
. The Pike and Hurling Company wiil parade in their
new unifoim. and will doubtless make a fine appearance.
Numerous other civic societies have signified their in
tention of-participating in'tho proceaeisn, and, judging
ftom the preparations, General; Corcoran, who has so
bravely, represented Irish: valor in the present contest
between loyalty and treason, in the American Union, will
meet with a reception worthy of our Commonwealth—
worthy of onr Irish citizens, and worthy of the man
whom they intend to honor.

MEDICINAL,
TXTONIERFUL SCIENTIFIC DIB
- COVRBY OK PROF. 0. HI BOLLEB. 1220
WALNUT STREET, PHILADELPHIA.
BEAD THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY.
The a ifference between fact and fiction, of permanently
coring the sick and goffering of their diseases, or adver
tising to cure, and showing but little or no evidence of
cureß, can be well appreciated by the anxious inquirers
after health, upon attentively reading the following sy
nopsis of certificates from some of the most reliable gen
tlemen In Philadelphia, who were' permanently: cored by
Prof. BOLLKS, 1220 WaLNUT street, and after they
had been given up as incurable bv the most eminent me
dical men of this city:
0 be following is a statement of facts in reference to my
.condition and astonishing core of Epilepsy:
For five years previous to my knowledge of Prof. 0.
H-Boiles’ discovery of the therapeutic administration
of Galvanism, Magnetism, and other modifications.of
Electricity lor the cure of all acute and chronic diseases,
I had been severely afflicoed with Eoilopfic Fits.of the
most obstinate character, and had abandoned all hopes
of ever being cored, as 1 had for years tried the treat
ment and received the counsel of the most eminent Medi
cal Men of the State, with a view of obtaining relief if
any ceold be found among the Old Schools ; but ail my
efforts were unavailing, and, therefore, all hopes wore
abandoned, as I then knew of no greater skill for the care
of obstinate easia than ip the Old About six
months ago my mind was turned to investigate : the new
discovery of Prof. 0, H. Boiles, 1220 Walnut street,
and, after noticing several certificates of cures which
were published, and some from persons with whom I was
acquainted and knew them to be reliable men, J was in
duced to call on the Professor and obtain his opinion of
my case. After he had examined me about ten minutes,
he frankly informed- me that ho could cure me, and
offered to give me a written watrantee of a complete
cure, and, in case of a failure, to charge me nothing.
This at first seemed an impossibility ; but the frankness
and earnestness o! the Professor convinced me of his
scientific accuracy in the diagnosis oi my case. He dis
closed ail my Bufferings and symptoms for five years past
as well as I know them mj seif. I wifi here etate, for the
good of humanity, and espeedafiy those suffering as I was,
that lam perfectly cured. I further would state that
mere than four months have elapsed since my cure, and
I have had no symptoms, and, therefore, feel confident
that I Bin cured. X shall take pleasure In being referred
ot at any time by any one suffering as I was, and any in
formation of my condition previous to-my cure wiU be
freely given to any one at 1542 North Thirteenth street,

which cases had resisted the treatment of the most emt

Please take-notice that Prof. B. does not advertise any
certificates of cures, except those cured in this city.
Prof. B, has established himself for life in this city, and
hie' success in treating the sick is a' snfdcient guaranty
that he claims nothing but' scientific Tacts in his disco
very in the uso cf Electricity aa a reliable therapentic
agent.
N. B.—lt will bs well for the diseased to recollect that
Prof. B. has given a wordjof caution in his pamphlet, to
guard them against trusting their health in the bauds of
those in this city claiming io treat diseases according to
hiß discovery. This caution may seem severe on thoße
using Electricity at hazard, but it is the severity of
truth, and designed for the good of humanity. See ad

PURE GOD-LIVER OID.*
The repugnance of moat patients to OOD-LIYHiB
OIL, and the inability of many to take it at alt, has In
duced various forms,of disguise for its administration
that are familiar to the Medical Profession- Soma of
them answer In special cases, bnt more often the vehicle
neutralizes the hsua! effect of {be Oil, proying unite es
unpalatable and, of less therapeutic value. The repug
nance, nausea, &c., to invalids, Induced by disgust of the
Oil, is entirely obviated by the use of onr 'CAPSULES.
OOD-LIVEB OIL OAPSUI.ES have been much used
lately , in Europe, the experience there of the good re
sults from their use in both hospital and private practice,
aside from the naturally,suggested advantages, are suf
