THE GERMAN-STREET cIIURCH.—:-All ef
fort to repurchase the Presbyterian church on Ger
man street, which was sold by the sheriff last
month, in consequence of the large indebtedness
against it, is being strenuously , made by the Presby
terians of this city. We learn that the claims
against the property were
Mortgage
interest due
Costs due •
Due to lien creditors
Interest due....
Debt not liened
Interest due.
In all • • 13,048 19
The property was purchased at the sale by four
creditors for three thousand dollars,•suhject to the
mortgage and interest, ($4,732,26.) These creditors
are wining to sell it for religious purposes for forty
two hundred dollars, the twelve hundred being added
to give them a larger per centage on their original
claim. The purchasers of the property are not
members of the German-street Church, but they de
sire to have the property retained for religious pur
poses,:believing it to be well located, and that, with
a good pastor, a large congregation can be gathered
there.
The lot alone is worth what is now asked for the
whole property, and an offer has been made, for a
manufacturing purpose, that will pay the present
owners a profit of six thousand dollars on their pur
chase. They are willing to yield these profits,
though involving a loss of a portion of their original
claim, and will also contribute to the effort now
making to free the church from debt, if the Presby
terians of Philadelphia will assist in the under
taking.' A committee, consisting of Robert Adair,
John Sparhawk, and Samuel Work, have under
taken to call public attention to the condition of the
church, and have issued a circular, containing their
opinions in regard to the matter.
The following reasons are given for the re
purchase of the property :
I. It is the only church of that denomination in a
population of sixty thousand.
2. It hits had a career of usefulness for thirty.
years as hundreds of converts can witness.
3. ''he congregation was encouraged to begin to
build by nearly all the pastors and churches of the
city.
4. The congregation, though not always wise in
plans, have made most martyr efforts to finish their
church; and ought not be left heart-broken by
die
appointment.
a. Our churches have alreadygivenfiffeen thousand
dollars, all of which will be lost if the house is secu
larized.
6.-It will not honor :Presbyterianism to have a
church of thirty years standing, in a needy district,
die for want of a few thousand dollars.
7. If the sum now asked for is raised,. it finishes
the church, pays all its debts, and sets up the congre
gation..B. Te property is now in private hands, and will
be conveyed to the trustees outside the congregation,
who will be able to sell it above cost, and return
donors•their money if it should fall as a church;
which it will not.
9. Some five individuals in Pine-street Church
will give five hundred dollars each, if twenty-five
others in the First Church, Clinton Street, Calvary,
North Broad Street, &c., will make up the rest.
Shall it De done, and the matter ended safely and
fussily
10.'Will any' good man, endowed with wealth,
withhold it from insufficient objections, and thereby
transform a House of God (where . thousands of souls
for a hundred years might hear the gospel), into a
factory, livery stable or a distillery?
ANNUAL MEETING OF THE CONTRIBU
TORS TO THE HOUSE OF RESUOE.—Thee annual
meeting of the Contributors to the House of Refuge
took place at four o'clock yesterday afternoon, at
their room, No. 109 North Tenth street. Thomas
Earp, Esq., was in the chair, and Mr. N. B. Browne
was chosen as Secretary, in the absence of that offi
cial. The reading of the annual report came first in
order. It set forth that, on the first of January,
1882, there were in the white department 246 boys
and 80 girls—total, 326; in the colored department,
91 boys and 46 girls—total, 136.

The report of Treasurer. G. W. Forbes stated the
cash received from the City Treasurer (appropriation
made by City Councils toward the maintenance of
the institution for the years 1861-'62) amounted to
$22,000; the cash received from State Treasurer,
$20,000; from labor of the boys, in the white de
partment, $6,633.63; in the colored, $1,709.09. The
whole amount of the receipts was $51,642.54; the
balance for January 1, 1863, was $1,620.80. The
labor of the boys was more productive during the
year than had been anticipated. The Board thought,
however, that something of more importance than
this had been their acquirement of habits of industry,
and skill in the use of tools. The girls not in the
school room e employed in the various branches
of housekeeping, sewing, tailoring, etc.: they make
and mend not only their own but also the boys'
clothes, and do all the washing and cooking. The;
pregress of the pupils in the school was satisfactory:
From September until May the pupils have reunions
semi-monthly, and lectures monthly. Through the
liberality of the late Thomas P. Cope, Esq., the
managers are enabled to bestow rewards twice a
year upon the most deserving of the inmates, Christ
mas and the Fourth of July being the dateh selected
for such bestowals. The boys are undergoing a
course of instruction in military exercises. By this
diversion their physical powers keep pace in their
improvement with that of their mental. The medi
cal attendants state that no serious epidemic has
prevailed during the past year in the institution.
Four deaths occurred in the white department—two
boys and two girls; seven in F the colored depart
ment ; all from tuberculous disease. The Sunday
schools in the white department aie producing salu
tary results. The chapel services are continued re
gularly. The following officers were re-elected :

THE COST. OF ;CITY, SITIIVEYI3.—'I:IIO ap
propriation to the Department of Surveys, in 1862,
amounted to $23,108, of which $21,271 was ex
pended, leaving a balance of $1,837 unexpended.
The Chief, in his report to the Mayor, says that the
moat important section that now requires plans of
recor4 is the old city, east of 'Seventh street. This
should be plotted at the earliest moment, as there is
nothing on file by which lines or grades may be de
finitely fixed should a question of law occur. As to
the, general drainage of the city, the report states
that, during the past year, 9,980 feet of sewers,
none of which have been main or arterial sewers,
have been laid, of which 7,406 feet have been paid by
the city, and 2,674 feet,by

THE COMMON COUNCIL CASE
Kerr at al vs. Trego et al. The application for
the injunction in the Common Council case was to
have been heard yesterday morning, but the answers
and affidavits of the defendants not being ready, and
the Court being occupied with eases from the

fa., the assignee gave notipe to plaintiffs not to
permit the amounts, paid by way of instalments on

that they were, in fact, payments on account of the
mortgage, and should be deducted. The court held
that the payment of instalments on the stock were
not payments on the mortgage, and verdict was
rendered for plaintiff for $3,041.91 and $1,619.22.
'George W. Thorn, Esq., for plaintiff; Prederick
Heyer for defendants.
A PRETTY SENTIMENT
'Wilson vs. hicEwen. This was a sci. fa. to revive
a judgment, and the defence set up is, that the de
fendant was discharged under the general .bankrupt
law of 1841.
The counsel for the defendant made an earnest
effort -to obtain a continuance of the case, on the
ground that their client was absent in the army, and
they had not been able to communicate with him,
and were, therefore, unprepared to try the cause.
Mr. David Paul Brown, who appeared for the
plaintiff; opposed , the continuance, saying that the
case had been continued term after term, and was
now 21 years old.
Judge Sharswood said : " Then it is of age."
Mr. Brown replied : Yes, sir, it has reached the age
of maturity, and is now ready to receivethe law's inheri
tance."
The application for a continuance was overruled,
and the case ordered for trial. • Counsel for the de
fendant then stated that they would ask leave of
court to withdraw the, rejoinder filed in the case,
and file a demurrer to the plaintiff's replication.
This was done, sod the ease now goes onto the argu
xnent list. G. Morgan Eldridge and David Paul
Brbwn, Esqrs., appdared for the plaintiff, and Geo.
W. Harkins and James E. Gowen for defendant.
District Court—Judge Hare.
John P. Bogle vs. Henry G. Winslow. 'This was
an action to recover damages for the alleged mel.
practice of the defendant, who is a dentist, in exces
sively 'administering' chloroform to the plaintiff
while extracting some teeth. The plaintiff for
the defence called a number of witnesses, among
them being Drs. Grose, Pancoast,Bishop, Skillen,
and others, who testified that the use of chloroform
produced no such effect; and Dr- Bishop testified that
prior to this administration of ehloroform;the plain
tiff had been treated by him for an accident, by
which he was thrown against a tree-box, and his
'head seriously injured. This, in the opinion of all
the witnesses for the defence, was more calculated
to cause the paralysis than-the chloroform ; and, in
fact, they testified that no such effect could be pro.;
duced by its use. On trial. J. P. O'Neill and H. M.
Phillips, Esqs., for plaintiff, and David. Webster,
Esq,, for defendant.
A number of other cases were disposed of in this
Court, but none of them of special interest.
THE,POLICE.
The Detective Police Force.
' We learn from the official report of ' Benjamin
Franklin, the chief of the detective-police •force,
which docUment was presented to his Honor,Alex
ander Henry, Mayor of Philadelphia, yestordriy, the
following facts, which exhibit some of the practical
workings of the department during- the year 1662.
The report says, the detective department comprises
twelve officers, and during the past year these have
been unusually efficient in the discharge of their vari
ous duties. The results of their labors are given in
the annexed tables, showing the amount of stolen
property recovered to exceed that of any former year
by one-half; which, with the number and character
of the arrests made, establishes the harmony and
efficiency of the eepartrnent. . •
In addition to the ordinary duties of the depart
ment, a number of persons were arrested by order
of the War Department, charged with frauds, &c.,
and a considerable amount of stolen property re
covered, which, with the prisoners, were transferred
forthwith to the United States authorities.
In The present condition. of monetary affairs, the
currency being entirely of paper, the community
are obliged to rely solely thereon for a circulating
medium in all their daily transactions, and in keep
ing with this state of things there seems, to have
been a remarkable activity prevalent during the past
year in the production.of new counterfeits, and the
number of persons engaged in defrauding the people
'by this means was never greater. ,
" . The business of engraving and printing counterfeit.
banlcnotes being carried orf with great secrecy,
there rarely being more than one dealer in the confi
dence of the principal, it is more uncommon that
evidence can be procured to convict the engraver
through the ordinary channels of police.information.
Several months since it was ascertained that a no
torious engraver of counterfeit bank notes, known
as George White, was engaged, in the neighbor
hood of New York city, at his nefarious occupation:
White was convicted in oar courts in 1814 on a
charge of the same character, and since his enlarge
ment the character of the counterfeit notes in circu
lation gave strong evidence of the activity of his
brain.' The police of various cities, vieing with each
other, have been indefatigable in their search after
such testimony as would protect the community
from his artistic skill in counterfeiting. 00-operating
with Mr. john Jenkins, deputy *United States Mar
shal, and Sergeant E. K. 'Tryon, of th'e Eighteenth
ward city police, the arrest of White . was accom
plished at Brooklyn, New York, on the lith of No
vember last. [Here follows an inventory of the ap
paratus and the bank notes found at the hciuse of
White, an account of which was published - in The
Yams at the time of the arrest.]
The whole number of arrests made during the past
year (by the detective force)7was 451. The stolen
property recovered and greceipted for on the pro
perty hook of this department, amounts to $53,560.45.
I may refer to the absence?, from our records, during
the past year, of depredations of large amounts of
.goods or property , of any kind, with the exception'of
one instance, viz : the robbery of Messrs. & Co.'s
store, 232 North Third street, in the month of Oc
tober last, of silk plushes to the amount of $5,000.
This robbery was perpetrated by the occupant of a
coffee room in an adjoiffing building. The robber
was secured, and is now atoning for hie offence in
the State prison. The stolen property was all re
covered through the vigilance of the officers of the
department
In the.last anneal report of this department Wl
tionallegislation was referred to as necessary for
the summary punishment of professional thieves
found crowding our thoroughfares, embracing every
opportunity to ply their calling, and the almost
utter impossibility of getting the necessary evidence
to convict them when arrested, through the laws
then in force. The report here refers to the passage
of the law authorizing the arrest of professional
thieves. .
Fifty-four photographs have been added to the
Rogues' Gallery during the past year. The gallery
has proven quite an institution for the public and
the Police Department in the detection of rogues.
Care has been taken to add to the gallery only those
of notorious character who have evidently adopted
crime as a profession. •
The report concludes as follows : Iwould here take
occasion to thank our worthy Chief of Police, 11Ir.
Samuel G. Ruggles, with the lieutenants of the va
rious districts, and the police department generally,
for their ready co-operation with the officere of .this
department, when called upon, as well as Mr. 'Phi

'[Before Mr. Recorder Eneu.3
Brood-Street Railroad.
A criminal prosecution, as it is legally known,
was commenced yesterday morning. before Recorder
Eneu, against Jonathan Bullock, Price I. Patton,
D. H. hheddaker, Lee F. Nichols, and James An
derson, the gentlemen who are deeply interested in
the work of laying the rails of the "Broad-street
Railroad," as it is called. They are charged with
maintaining a public nuisance.
Henry M. Phillips, Esq., appeared for the Conf
monwealtht and Win. F. johnson, Esq. for the
defence. Several hours elapsed (after ' the time
fixed for the hearing) before the parties were brought
in, and then they came scattering—first one, then
another—one would go out, and another come in.
Thus the "dilly-dallying" process was continued.
Finally, Mr. Johnson, for the defence, arrived, and
the investigation proceeded as follows :
Mr. Johnson asked to see the warrant, as" he de
sired to know upon whose complaint the suit was
brought.
Mr. Phillips ,replied, on the complai4 of Philip
Fox.
Amos R. Little was called to the stand.. On being
affirmed, he testified as follows : I reside at 1818
North Broad street; I know Jonathan Bullock;
have seen him superintending the men at work
upon the track on Broad street ; the work is still
progressing; the workmen were engaged in .break
ing ground between Callowhill and Spring Garden
streets this morning; three rails are laid below Cal
lowhill street; I know Mr. Sheddaker; in company
with. Mr. Fox had `mite conversation - with him;
Mr. Fox said, "I see.you have not stopped this work.
yet ;" he, 'Sheddaker replied, "No, we are going on
in spite of you."
Shetttlaker here interrupted the witness, and
made a denial of the statement.
The witness continued, and reiterated the state
ment; he said the track would be laid in spite of all
opposition; or words to this elfect; Mr. Sheddaker is
the surveyor; I have seen Mr. Nichols and Mr. An
derson among themen, superintending . the work on
the road; I consider the road a nuisance; the rails
are being laid on a public street.
Cross-examined.—The witness was cross-examin
ed at considerable length , as follows : I presume Mr.
Fox made oath at his own option; I did not tell him
to dolt; have had some conversation on this subject
With .P.lr. Fox, Mr. Peterson, Fitzgerald, Mx.-
Solna,
and, perhaps, one or two othets • the first
talk of having . the - parties indicted ' took place
yesterday.; I think we may have had some talk
about this' before ; we thought they ought to be in
dicted for common nuisance, because this nuisance
is contrary to law; oui complaint is laying the tiack
from the depot to Spring Garden street; further
than this, they are obstructing the street north of
Spring Garden street; with rail, sleepers, stones,
fv.e., which is n . great annoyance, particularly iu
riding out of an evening ; I also complain they are
'also doing the same thing on Girard avenue and
Howard street ; stones and other material are left:
on these - thoroughfares ; in consequence of these ob
structions while riding that way I came very near
-having a collision;
I am one of the parties engaged
in the civil suit ; Ihave not assisted nor contributed
towards the payment for publishing any state
ment; don't know who published any placards;
I decline to answer any question on this sub
ject because I don't know anything about it ;
I was not in court on Saturday last; don'tknow
what was done there; heard some talk on the'ttreets
about it; I am one of the parties in this 'suit; came
here by my own consent; several of us have decided
that the violation of the law must be put a stop to.
Considerable discussion ensued between Messrs.
Phillips and Johnson, the counsel, as to the merits
of the case. Mr. Phillips demanded bail that the
parties appear at court to answer,, and to be of good
behavior and to keep the peace in the meantime.
After considerable conversation on the responsi
bility of the parties, the counsel for defence agreed
the work should cease at once, and, with this under
standing, the case terminated for the - present. The
parties have leave to enter bail in the sum of 8600 at
noon to-day.
[Before Mr. Aldermart Beater.]
Alleged Larceny.
Charles Petry was arraigned last evening, before
Alderman Beitler, on the oath of Mr. lies, the
owner or lessee of the hotel on Chestnut street,
above Fourth. From the evidence it seems that the

boys, were arraigned before Alderman Beitler yes
terday, on the charge of the larceny of fOur pairs of
chickens and a canister of tea. The parties were ar
rested near Tenth and Wharton streets,
about three
o'clock yesterday morning. They said they won the
chickens at a raffle, and that the tea belonged to the
mother of one of them. They were ordered to give
bail in the sum of $BOO to answer.
Alleged N'orgery.
Edward Tilden, a Colored man, employed by Wil
liam B. Mann, Esq., District Attorney, as A coach
man, was arraigned before Alderman Beitier last
evening on the charge of forgery. Mr. Mann was
present.
Officer Clark testified that a colored man stopped
at the store of Mr. Ladomuir, on Chestnut street,
yesterday afternoon; a man named Frank Lewis
told the officer that the colored man was trying to
pass a check, and guessed it was a forged one; the
officer proceeded to make an arrest,and the defendant
tore the cheek into small pieces and threw them on
the sidewalk; the pieces were picked up and put to
gether by the officer; it turned out to be a check for
four hundred dollars, drawn in favor of Dunlap; the
signature of William B. - Mann was signed to it.
-Mr. Mann testified that the defendant had come
to him highly' recommended by Mr. Spooner, who
had employed him as coachman; defendant had lived
with Mr. Mann for three months; alWays found him
to be An excellent servant; the check is a forgery.
The defendant, in' explanation, said that he was
sent to Mr.' Ladomus' store by Miss Mann; that on
going along Tine street he found the check on the
pavement; it could not have been dropped very long,
as it was dead. He , says he did .not try topase it.
The case closes here, and the defendant was commit
ted in default of $l,OOO bail to await another hear
ing. •
Two Screws Loose Somewhere.
. William F. Johnson, charged with stealing coats
from Bloodgood's Hotel and the Girard House, was
to have had a final hearing before tild. Beitler yes
terday. Wm. Deweei, charged with the larceny of
clothing, was also to have been heard at the same
session. Ongoing to prison to bring the defendants
to the Central Station-house, it was ascertained
they had already been discharged from custody.
One of the orders issued was of the old-fashioned
'kind, and from its reading a person might be easily
misled. This was the fact in relation to the first
named prisoner. The document relative to De wees
was in the usual form, "Deliver into the eustody
of." How the defendant came to be discharged from
prison upon such legal paper as this will have to
be explained by the officers interested:

who has been in the habit, it is said, of prowling
about the market-houses. Yesterday morning he

leged offence he was committed to answer.
Witnesses Wanted.
. man named John Reilbaum was arrested a short
time since on the charge of larceny. Since then, the
police have recovered a considerable quantity of
shirts, coats, sheets, shawls, vests, pants, stockings,
&c., which he had possession of and sold. We are
requested by the officers to press upon the attention
of all persons who have recently lost such articles,
the importance of calling at the office of Alderman
llkrilliams, and examine the goods with the view of
identification. The accused will have a final hear
ing at 3 o'elock this afternoon.

WALING PO WERS OF ELECTRI
--.-CITY .DEMONSTRATED ON OVER FOUR THOU-.
SAND INVALIDS, AT 1220 WALNUT STREET, PHI:
LADELPHIA: - . .
The object of the following certificates is to show that
cares at 1220 WALNUT Street are permanent 'and re;
liable. .The first cure was performed nearly three years
ago, the second was performed nearly one year ago, the
third about one year, and hundreds more of like cases
might be shown.
. READ THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY.
About twelve months ago I had a severe attack of
Diabetes, attended with other difficulties too numerous
to mention. My, desire for drink was constant, and al
though I drank gallons per day, my thirst was never
allayed; I was only able to sleep at short intervals,
Which seemed like a trance. ,The mucous surface of my
mouth and throat had become so parched and feverish,
that I was in constant misery. I was , also suffering
from all the horrors of Dyspepsia, loss of appetite, Nau
sea, and frequent and severe attacks of vomiting; and so
prostrated was my general system, that was scarcely
able to move about. I bad availed myself of the science
and skill of distinguished medical men, both of the .Allo
pathic and Homeopathic school, and exhausted their
catalogue of remedies, but found only temporary relief.
In this condition, when every ray of hope seemed para
lyzed I heard of the discovery of Professor Bolles in the
use of Electricity, and the wonders he was performing in
curing disease, and placed *myself under his treatment ;
and, to the astonishment of myself and friends, in two
operations my Diabetes was controlled, and other diffi
culties soon disappeared ; my appetite has returned; sleep
Undisturbed, and, in fact, I feel like one made anew.
I would further state that I have seen other remark
able cures performed by Prof. Bolles, and would advise
the diseased to call at 1221 Walnut street, and be restored
to health. I shall be glad to give any ono information
calling on me. . THOMAS lIARROP,
Rose Mill, West Philadelphia.
Philadelphia, May Ist, 1/360.
Bead the following from a preacher of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, No. 1833 •Efelmuth street, Philadel
phia: •
•
In attempting a definition of my disease, I can only
give some of the many symptoms which, taken altoge
ther, were the most horrid ; and even medical men. did
not know my disease from pathological symptoms. Row
ever t Professor C. H. Bolles, by whom I was cured, lo
cated my disease in the pelvic viscera, in five minutes
after I entered his office, and offered to warrant a perfect
cure in eight applications. And I frankly admit that in
eight applications. of Electricity. administered by Pro-
fessor Bonnast - LOWalnut street, Philadelphia, am
perfectly cured ; and to me this is most astonishing, for I •
had exhausted the catalogue of old-school remedies, and
grew worse all the time.
I had long believed that in Electricity resided a potent
agent for the cure of disease, if a right application could
be made; and now I can comprehend, from its powerful
effects on me, for a speedy cure, although no shocks were
given.' All was pleasant, and accomplished as if by
magic.
I will give most of my symptoms, for the benefit of
suffering humanity.. I had dyspepsia, bad marasmus, or
wasting of the tissues of the 'whole body; at times a
difficulty of breathing, some palpitation of the heart,
much bronchitis, trembling of the limbs after exercise,
aversion to business and company; at times gloomy, ina
bility to collect my thoughts vigorously on any subject,
a loss of memory, pain in various parts of the body ; suf
fered much from lumbago, deranged secretions of the
kidneys and other glands of the system, constant drag
ging pains in the lumbar region, and severe nervous dis
mess.
I believe it is my duty, as a lover of humanity, to re
commend this discovery of Professor BOLLES to Ithe
afflicted of all classes. l'here seems to be no guesswork,
no confusion, no matter of doubt in his treatment. He
proCeeds on fixed principles, and according to fixed laws,
which seem to me infallible and harmoutous. He war
rants, by special contract, the most obstinate, chronic
and acute cases, and charges nothing. if he fails. I ad
vise all of the diseased to try his treatment.

Preacher in M. F._ Church ?

ANOTHER CURE OF PARALYSIS OF THE LOWER
LIMBS (Paraplegia) AND .APOPLEXY COMBINED.
Read the following: •
PHILADELPHIA, March 31,1862.
PROFESSOR - BOLLES, 3 Walnut street: The remarka
ble care which I have derived from your method of ap
plying Electricity compels me to thus acknowledge the
great obligations I ain under to you for Bn:ll6h:rig me, as
it were, from immediate death. About two years ago,
While a resident of Cincinnati, Ohio, I was visited Wall
an attack of paralysis of the lower extremities, which
rendered me • almost entirely unable to stand upon my
limbs. I employed, some of the most celebrated physi
cians to be found in that section, bat received no appa
rent benefit, and after a lapse of about eighteen months
was taken with a spasm, which ono of my physicians
pronounced a fit of apoplexy. Two weeks elapsed from
that time before I became the least conscious of anything
that had transpired, nor could I concentrate my mind or
converse upon any eubject without becoming very vi
sionary and excited, until I placed myself under your
valuable treatment. After my arrival in Philadelphia
my attention was called to your treatment by a pamphlet
handed me by my.father, which contained the names of
some gentlemen whom I had been formerly acquainted
with, and whose statements I could rely upon. I imme
diately made np my mind to place myself under your
treatment. I have now been the recipient.of four treat
ments, and I now feel perfectly satisfied that I am re
stored to a sound condition, and thefore feel it my duty
to gratefully acknowledge the benefits which I have re
ceived thromh your treatment.
- Very respectfully yonrs, acc.,
WILLIAM R. SHAIN, -
Publisher of the National Merchant, office 126 South.
SECOND Street, Philadelphia.
N. B.—lt will be well for the diseased to recollect that
ProL B. has given a word of cautionin his pamphlet to
'guard them against trusting their health in the hands of
those in this city claiming to treat diseases according to
his discovery. This =noon may seem severe on those
using Electricity at h.azard, but it is the severity of truth,
and designed for the good of humanity. See advertise
ment in another column.
