A “Monitor” for the Delaware
MV KB.—Wo understand that a movement is on foot,
among some of onr patriotic and public, spirited citizens,
to inquire into the feasibility of constructing an improved
iron- clad floating battery, upon the new model oi Captain
Ericsson for such vessels, for the protection of the harbor
of Philadelphia, and to assist onr river fort* in case of
any future attack by a foreign fleet. '■
The citizens of Boston recently held a meeting, and
after canvatsirg the subject thoroughly, determined to
raise a subscription sufficient to build a new Monitor, for
the defence of the harbor of that city. The sum required
for an improved vessel of this class was set down at two
hundred thousand dollars. This, of course, is an estimate
for a small vessel, but, nevertheless, one which would be
very useful. Should oar merchants deelda to procure a
Monitor for tho Delaware river, we have no doubt that
machinery could be attached so as to render the vessel
an excellent ice-boat, and would thus keep our river free
•of Ice in tho winter, and dear of a most powerful enemy,
should any Power bo so desperato as to invade onr noble
.Delaware. Altogether, we think the idea an excellent
•one, and. we hope that our merchants will not be Blow to
Act In the matter.
In addition to ali that we have said, we have no doubt
that the Government would encourage the movement,
possibly employ the.vessel for,sometime in aiding to
auppress the rebellion, and in timee of peace hire it for
tcvouuo aervitc, allowing tho privilege to the owners ot
selling the vessel to the National Government at any
time. It is just as important that every one of our large
seaport cities should have its iron-clad floating battery
as it Is that every city, seaport or Inland, should have its
institute or senilna-y for tho instruction of its youth in
the science and practice of the art ot war. Let us have
our iron-clad battery Be soon as possible, by ali means.
An “ Exempt ” Home Guard.—ln
consequence of numerous enlistments from the ranks of
the old HomuJGuerd of this city, and from numerous other
caused, 1 that organisation has become almost extinct.
This is a, matter to be regretted, as the importance of
such an organization for the defence of our city cannot
be denied. Indeed, we notice among a portionof our
population a einoere desire to haTe something in the way
of a substitute for the Home Guard, and an esteemed
correspondent favors ,us with tho following plan of an
organization, which we, think would be competent to
fulfil all the functions designed, and be a pride to the
city, If properly formed* and kopfc up in the spirit of a
generous public en ter prise. ;
Onr frier d :proposes that a rogiaoni of infantry be
raised, under the new regulations or our .-egn ar army,
to consist of tour battalions, numbering 2,200 men, to be
well armed and eqelpped in the manner prescribed In the
regulations of the army of the United Status—eaoh bat
talion to be commended by a mejer, aud the whole by a
senior motor or lieutenant colonel. In addition to this,
a battery ot light artillery shoniu be organized, to consist
oi six pleoeß, and one hundred aid eighty men, togetner
with a squadron of cavalry—all equipped in good style,
and forming a light ongade, Intended for active service :
at any moment. This brigade should be composed of
persona exempt from drafting—such as young man from
16 to 18 yean of.age, and those over 46 j ears—who may
ho able-bodied and capable to perform such military duty
as may belong to a Heme Guard or this character. Tho
whole to be will drilled togetner as a brigade, with word
of mouth add bugle ciders, so as to become thoroughly,
versed in military duty ot every description. *W hilet this
brigade, being .small, could be kept at all times full, it
would at once become a sort of Institution in the oily,
to which every one ol our public.spirited oitizenß would
be proud to belong, as ranch as the citizens of Boston
are prond to belong to the Ancient end Honorable Artil
lery.of.that city. The whole brigade could be under
command of a colonel acting as brigadier general.
The force would also be sufficient in case of a riot to
place an armed tUoitr upon every square of oar city,
whilst the artillery could command ail tho leading ave
nues, an 1 ibe cavalry would be ample to patrol not only
the city, but tbe rural districts. Again, should we be
so unfortunate as to have tbe enemy, by any accident or
disaster to our armies, threat,n the city, thia well-or
ganized, welJ-disciplined Home Guard Brigade, would be
of more seivice in repelling an attack than 10,000 undis
ciplined men.

Gentujmkx : I have to thank you far yonr kind and
complimentary letter of the 25th inst., requesting the
use of my name as a candidate for the responsible office
cf Oity Solicitor.
While profoundly grateful for the] partiality of my
friends, I am doairdus not to give the least cause for di
vision in the ranks of the loyal citizens, or to be looked
upon as the opponent of any of the meritorious gentle
men who may have been spoken of: for the same office.
It is the duty of all good citizens now to sustain the Go

therefore, I do not think it proper to seek the nomina
tion, if my fellow-citlzena see fit so to honor me, I shall
not feel at liberty to decline so flattering a proof Of their
confidence.
With high regard, I remain yours, very respectfully,

Lips in a Rebel Pbison.—Lieut.
Frank Parker, a Philadelphian, who was taken prisoner
by tha rebels, and released a short time since, gives a most
distressing account of the barbarity to which he and
other Union soldiers were subjected. All hands were
confined at Salisbury, N. 0., in a cotton mill, to which
wa* attached six brick tenement houses, a frame barn,
and three leg houses, the whole enrronnded by a board
fence of ten feet In height. Here were also about one
thousand prisoners, Northern Union soldiers and South
ern Union citizens, from Kentucky, Maryland, Virginia,
Tennessee, and North Carolina. Tha mainbuttdiog con
tained nine hundred sanls, being an average of one man to
every three feet of space, eight of whom only were al
lowed to be out at one time for all purposes. The com •
mandant of the post offered to allow rite officers to parade
the grounds attached to the buildings under a double
guard, the officers giving their parole not to attempt to
esoape, or aid other Union prisoners in esoaplng, which
offer was rejected by Lieut. Parker and five others.
Lieut. P. and the five who rejected the liberal offer,
were then placed in a close room, ten feet by twenty,
where they were (subjected to many indignities, especial
ly at the hands of Lient. Bradford, son of Gov. Bradford,
of Maryland, who has disavowed his disloyal son. This
treatment they endnrei until the commandant of the post
was ebanged, A. O. Godwin, formerly a California gam
bler and black-leg, taking charge, who brought from
Biobmond over two hundred Union prisoners, who were
confined in this “ black hole." Instead o! their suffer
ings being ameliorated by the change, the tyranny was
more lusuffera ile than ever. This monster, Godwin, out
down the* before scant rations to six eunoes of musty,
maggoty pork, and fourteen ounces of sour flour, which
produced the death, from actual starvation, of some of
the prisoners, alter which, the officers were compelled not
only to feed themselves, bat to furnish rations to the
prisoners at their own expense. Godwin would not al
low the officers to send on: side for food, bat started a sut
ler’s store in the prison enclosnre, and charged them four
hundred per cent, more than than they could have pur
chased the same articles outside.
Oh the 2d of July, Lieut. Sponcer died of typhoid fe
ver, and Ihe officers having requested Godwin to allow
them to give him a decent Interment, were met with a flat
refusal, bo ordering a colored man to take him off in a
Cart and bnry him in a lanyard, saying, a »• negro slave
was all the guard of honor a Northern invader-deserved."
On the 23d of J nly, the glad news was received of the
cartel being'signed. Godwin, after delaying their depar
ture as long as possible), d umped them into cattlecars
and sent them to Aiken’s Landing; where the steamer
Star waß awaiting their arrival. They were then taken
to Fortress Monroe and sent North. In describing tha
sensations experienced in their trip down tbe James river,
Lient. Parker Btates that when they passed the United
States gunboats, ihe crews of which cheered them lustily,
they were so overcome they conld not respond, and tears
were the only evidence of their joy at their liberation
irom worse than 'Venetian imprisonment.
Railroad Matters,— Among the
nu; recent im pt o vemeuts on the Pennsylvania Ballrosd
is the construction of large resorvoir at Kittaning Point,
forty feet la diameter and ten feet deep, to supply moun
tain engines with water. On the Ebensburg and CresKtn
branch, at Ebensburg, an engine house is nesrly com
pleted, twenty by sixty feet, built of wood at a cost of
$16,000. At Gcncmaugh station a large coal way has
been built, two hundred feet long, sixty feet wide, and
Sixteen feet high, with coal tipples, built of great
strength, from which engines will: be supplied with coal.
At Johnstown, a freight depot fa being erected by S I,
Cot netl, one hundred feet long and thirty-eight feet wide,,
and sixteen feet Ligb, built of brick, at a cost of about
$B,OOO- At Homewood, a BmaU passenger station has
been buiit Bixtetu by thirty-three feet. It isbuiltof
wood, at a cost of about $l,OOO.- At the outer depot,
Pittsburg, a brick building, sixty by seventy feet, for a
smithshop, has been erected.
It has been intimated to the directors of the Camden
and Amboy what a convenience it would be to Staten
Islanders if the tt amboat Richard Stockton would call
at one of the docks on the north side of the island, when
ever a signal was made that there were passengers in
waiting, or when there were passengers from South who
desire to be land, d. This arrangement, costing but little
trouble to the boat, and a delay of not over five minutes,
would be a great ac<ommodation, By the present ar
rangement, If the ttockton is a few moments over the
regular time in the evening, those who may desire to go to
the island are prevented, and some fsurteen miles most be
travelled to enable passengers to reach home that eve
ning. ■ rr '
Tbesident Benson on the CONTl-
NENT. —lnformation bsß been received, by the Ameri
can Colonization Soctety'of this city, that the President
cf Liberia has been welcomed and treated on the Conti
nent with the same liberal eplritand generous hospitality
extended to 'him in Great Britain. Leaving London on
4he 6th ultimo, he has already visited several of the pro
-.mlßent cities. At Berlin he was entertained by Count
-Sernstdff, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of .Prussia,
/President Benson sitting on the right and the Chief of the
Japanese on the left or the Countess of Bernstoff, Gerard
Ralston, Ere., wrote from London as follows
"President Benson receives everywhere the most
.courteous.and,honorable treatment. He Is expected at
.Amsterdam on the 14th lost., and, after visiting Holland,
Belgium, Ao:, may-come back to Great Britain : bnt
whether he will ylfit onr country—United States of Ame

••We are welt. We arrived here yesterday, the 7th

Ring of Prussia and the King of Saxony. By the latter
he was enttliained at dinner at the Royal PainoeatPil-.

“ clever” men indeed, and- they expressed much interest
in thCWelfare of Africa. The people in Germany Sw
more about Liberia than the people in England, a™,

Btriy, tbe Speaker of the Maryland Legislature, who
wab stopping at the Continental Hotel
In response to tbe call of the large crowd gathered in
front of the hotel, Col. Berry made a speech* in which he
assured his hearers tbat -Marj land was sound in the
faith* and & stronger percentage of unflinching, un
averring, midyicg Union men in that State than in
Pennsylvania. It cost something to he a Union man in
Maryland. They had some* and he was sorry to say he
found in Philadelphia some.“ weak bacis,V hat in Mary
land they had tight-twisted Union men* and he coaid as
sure his hearers that there could be no more nineteenths
of April. 9 hey had found in Maryland* and thty wore
beginning to find out in Philadelphia, that they must be
cue thing or the other. We must either be for our coun- ’
try oragoinst that country. Pennsylranians and Poila
delpbians must get rid of the dissensions and divisions
which be was sorry to fled among them. They moat
throw aside all politics. -They mass lay aside all politi
cal affinities, and talk of their country, and nothing else j
and when our country is restored, as restored it will be*
then they can resume thUr former political predilections.
[Applause,] In Maryland tbe Union men knew nothing
of ihrse dlsseneloce of these political parties. They were
for George B. McClellan, down to the smallest man in the
Joweßt ranks. [Applause.] They had come to that con
clusion, and alibied no abuse of any one who is standing
up for his country, and the Quicker those in Philadelphia
come to tbat determination the more firmly united will
we be to'crush the rebellion.
The speaker continued at some length, and hid remarks
were well received and loudly applauded.
Fipth street Hospital.—At, this
hospital, yesterday morning, a meeting was held by the
convalescents, and addressed by the Bey. Mr.
previous to their departure to another hospital, in the
suburbs of the city, Alter the address by the chaplain,
ibe following vote of thanks; by those about to leave, was

“As about ono hundred and fifty of the convalescent pa
tients or this hospital are to leave to-day, we think.it a
duty, and consider it a pleasure, to tender our sincere
thanks to Dr. Bonvnbaville, surgeon in charge, and bis as
sistants, for their kind care and attention to ns. To Dr.
Bonrnonville we will ever feel grateful for the care and
pirsonal atiention paid. The wards aro at all times
clean; the bedding frequently changed; the food is good
and plenty. To him and his kind assistants we owe onr
rapid recovery, and shall ever feel grateful, /
‘‘ The ladies alto have our best wishes and sincere
thanks for tin ir kindness to ns."
The convalescents also passed a resolution that the ar
ticle published in a Sunday paper last week was false,
and a gross libel on the institution.
Passing Troops—General Coroo-
BAN AGAIN IN PHlLADELPHlA,—Yesterdaymorn
ing the famous New York 09th, with General Corcoran,
reached this city on their return home, where they will
be fully recruited, and with other regiments form a bri
gade. Tbe at rival yesterday, although not generally
known, was the cause of bringing an immense flock of
people to the refreshment saloons. There was a happy
meeting of officers at the Cooper Shop Saloon, as follows:
General Corcoran, Colonel John K. Murphy, Colonel
Tippen, Colonet He6nan, and a number of captains and
lieutenants. They were warmly welcomed by Dr. A.
NibiDger on behalf of the committee.
Belore the 69th had taken their departure, a squad of
230 men from different States, era route for the old regi
ments, passed through, and almost at Ihe same time , the
9th New Hampshire arrived. The troops were passing
through during the whole of Tuesday night, and the cry
is “ still they ccme." A number of regiments from New
York and the East are under marching orders, and the
two refreshment saloons wiil now be taxed to their nt
mo. tto meet the heavy pressure that will be male upon
them. Our citizens Bhould not forget that contributions
of ail kinds are very acceptable to those institutions just
now. , '
Forfeiture of Cotton and Worst
ed GOODS.—In the United States District Court, before
Judge Csdwatader, the following case is now progressing:
United States vs. Five pieces of cotton hose, five pieces
manufactured cotton and worsted, and eleven cases of
cotronhoae. This action is brought lor the purpose of
enforcing the forfeiture of .the above goods, alleged, to
have been invoiced at a less price than the grosß cost of
the goods at Bremen. The,goods reached this port De
cember 1, 1860, and the time of making the entry at the
enstem- house, three invoices were presented, and upon
the face of tbese it appeared that a disc mot of three per
cent, had been deducted from the grots amount. The
custom house officers believing that the discount had not
been actually allowed by the manufacturer; the goods
were seized, and proceedings were instituted in this court
to enforce the forfeiture.
A Case of Sympathy.—A Union
widow lady recently arrived in this oity from the shores
of tbe Potomac, having been obliged to abandon her home
in Virginia, on account of having had wbat little effects
she prssested stolen and destroyed by the robeia. She
brought with her six children, four girls and two boys.
Through the instrumentality or a clergyman of this oity
the girls have been provided with good homes, but the
boys ate unprovided for. The mother appeals to any
patriotic citizen who is willing to take charge of either
ol the boys, learn them a trade, and bring them up in a
Christian- like manner. The boys are aged, respectively,
thirteen and sixteen years, and would do credit to any
position in which they may be placed. The mother, who
has received a fine education, and seen much better days,
is also willing to accept any employment that may be
proffered. Information as to their whereabouts may be
had at this office.
The New Automatic Fan and Fly-
EBUSH,—The newly-invented Automata), or self-acting
Fan and Fly-Bruth Machines, exhibited at No. 718
Chestnut street, are quite ingenious, and really possess
decidedmerit To the luxury of being assiduously lan
ntd by one of them we can bear ample testimony; and,
as the “ disperser ” performs Buch wonders in I the
kitchen, in keeping flies out of the pastry. It will be in
valuable to those afflicted with a delicate stomach; to say
nothing of its other qualifications. We predict a rush
for both machines whenever a trial shall have been given
them by a discerning public. See advertisement iu our
issue of to-day, which explains more fully the excellent
qualities of both of these simple but very useful ma
chines.

A bout Drafting—Caution.— A. ge
nrral misunderstanding prevails among certain portions
ot tbe people of this Common wealth, with regard to the
assessors and their duties, and in some instances the
'assessors meet with very uncivil treatment- while in the
discharge of those t utiea. These people should bear in
mind that the assessors themselves, if between the ages
ot 18 and 46 > ears, are liable to be drafted tbe same as
sny other citizen not exempt by law; ana for the benefit
of nil concerned, we desire to state that any attempt to
interfere with or intimidate the deputy marshals in
making tbe enrollment will be pnnished by tbe most se
vere penalties, and the assessors have the power to ar
rest such offenders. The heads of families are required
to give the names of oiltbe male membersof their house
holds between the ages of 18 and 46 years, and to answer
promptly and truthfully, all questions tb .t may bo asked.
The assessors in a number of Instances are greeted with
indignant frowns, and receive surly and insolent replies
:to the questions , asked. This should not be the case.
The enrollment of. the militia is one of the laws- of the
Stale, and although it has not been pnt into force for
several years past, yet all good citizens will be governed
by tbe law in such cases made and provided, and they
should endeavor to aid the assessors by informing en
those persons who may have escaped receiving their no
tice of enrollment by misstatements or otherwise.
, Base Ball —On Tuesday, the Mu

The Case of Charles Ingersoll —
HIS COMMlTTAL.—Yesterday, at noon, Charles In
gereoll, Esq,, was to have appeared before Alderman
lloilier to answer the charge of having preached treason
at the mass meeting held in Independence Square oh Satnr
day evening last, as preferred in the affidavit of Mr. Wil
lard. The provost marshal or the city had, however,
received orders from Washington that a new affidavit was
necessary, inasmuch as the marshal had not held him
under the first one, hut had taken bonds fer bis appear
ance and allowed him lo depart. A new affidavit was
accordingly found necessary, and, as The Press had
published the only correct report of Mr. Injersoll’s
speech, bb delivered, the reporter of this paper, who was
present at the meeting, was summoned before the mar
shal. He there testified that the speech aa phonogra
pbicalty reported by him, was correit tothe letter. Upon
the strength of this new affidavit Mr. legereoll was ar
rested and lodged in Moyameneing prison. No legal pro
ceedings will probably be taken until Mr. Ingersoll is
tranßierred to Washington city.
The New Ironsides.—This monster
war vessel arrived at Fortress Monroe on the evening
of the 26th inst., having run from Cape Henlopen in
twenty-four hours. The performance of her engines is
said to be satisfactory, and the ship is a good sea boat.
The steam-frigate Powhatan was at anchor yesterday af

BEAD THE FALLOWING CAREFULLY.
between fact and fetunt, of permanently
cming the sick ami suffering 6f their or adver*
titling to cure, and showing but little or no evidence of
cures, can be well appreciated by the anxious inquirers
afur health, upon attentively, reading the following's?*
nopals of certificates from somt of the most reliable gen
tlemen in Philadelphia, who were permanently cured, by
Prof. BOLLKS. 1220, WALNUT street, and after they
had been given up as incurable by the moßt eminent me
dical mm of this city:
0 he following ife a statement of facts in reference to my
condition and astonishing cure of Epilepsy :
For five years previous to: my knowledge of Prof. 0.
H. Bolles’ discovery of the therapeutic administration
of Galvanism, Magnetism, and other modifications of
Flectricity iorlhe.cure of all acute and chronic diseases,
I bad been severely affiicced with Eoiiep*ic Fits of the
most obstinate character, and bad abandoned aU hopes
’ of ever being cured, as I had for years tried the treat
i ment and received the counsel of the most eminent Hudi
’• cal Men of the State, with, a view of obtaining relief if
. any ceuld be found among the Old Schools ; but all my
i efforts were unavailing, and, therefore, all hopes were
i abandoned, as I tben fcnewof no greater skill for the cure
;of obstinate capes than in tbe Old Schools. About six
‘ months ago my mind was turned to investigate the new
j discovery of Prof. 0. H. Bolles, 1220 Walnut street,
• and, after noticing several certificates of cures which
i were published, and some from persons with whom I was
acquainted and knew them to be reliable .men,! was in-,
duced to call on the Professor and obtain his opinion of
nay case. After he had examined me about ten minutes.
,be ’frankly informed me that be could cure me. aha
offered to give me a written wa* rautee of .a. complete
cure, and, in case of a f®ilurft> :to charge me nothing*
This at first seemed an c itsposeibility j but the~ frankness
? and earnestness of the PyofessoT convinced me of his
scientific accuracy in the diagnosis of my ease/ He dis
closed ell my sufferings and symptoms for five years- past
as weH as I knew them mj self.. .twill here stats, for the
good, of humanity, and especial? those suffering as I was,
that lam perfectly cured. I further would state that
mere than four months have elapsed since,my cure, aud
I have had no symptoms* and, therefore, feel confident
that I am cured. ' I shall tafee pleasure in being referred
ot at any time by any one suffering as I was, and auy in
formation of my condition previous to my cure’will be

PURE OOD-LIVER OIL.
The repugnance of moat patients to COD-LIVEB
OIL, and the inability of many to take it at all, has in
duced various forms of disguise for its administration
that are familiar to the Medical Profession. Some of
them answer in special cases', but mjre often the vehicle
neutralizes the usual effect of the Oil, proving quite as
unpalatable and'of less therapeutic valne. The.repug
nance, nausea, Ac., to invalids, induced by disgust of the
Oil, is entirely obviated by the use of our CAPSULES.
COD-LIVEB OIL CAPSULES have been much used
lately in Enrope, the experience there of the good re

aside from the naturally suggested advantages, are suf
