    THE POLICE.
(Before Mr. Alderman Berner.]
Alleged Shoplifter Arrested.
John W. Wilson was arraigned, yesterday after
noon, at the Central Station, on the charge of rob.'
bin the store of .Tames B . C.impbell & Co., 1124
Chestnut street, of silk goods to the extent of about
0500. The robbery is alleged to have taken place
just before eight o'clock yesterday morning. We
present the evidence RA elicited, so that the reader
may form a correct idea as to the manner in which
the robbery was perfected. The evidence, we may
here say, is simply circumstantial.
Hugh Lynn, the boy who attends the store, testi
fied as follows :
When I was opening the store, this morning, this
man and another came there, and asked if Mr.
Campbell was in ; I told them no ; they asked what
time he would be there; I told them about nine or
half past nine o'clock ; they came In and seated
themselves, and picked up the newspaper ; one of
them asked for the Ledger; we hadn't that paper ;
then one of the men asked me to go and get one, but
T said I could not, as I had to mind the store ; one of
the men said 4.wanted to purchase some goods ; he
then commenced examining some boxes, and finally
Went into the back office, leaving the other man sit
ing on the chair; in a little while the man in the
office picked up a piece of silk, anti said that was the
kind he wanted ,• he asked me to take it to the other

into the back part of the store ; he had on n felt hat
and a big overcoat ; he is not dressed now as lie was
this morning.
William Sycamore, another Ind once employed in
this store stopped as young . Lynn was opening it,
and saw 'the two men ; he recognized the prisoner
as having visited the store last summer on baldness
of some kind.
George Smith (detective) testified that on hearing
of the robbery proceeded to the store, and discovered
that live hundred dollars' worth of goods had been
stolen ; heard the statement of the two boys, and
then adopted the bestpreliminary measures to
insure an arrest of one or both the parties.
Hugh Lynn, father of the first-named witness,
testified that with hie son he made a tour in the
care north and mouth of the city ; and, finally,
W tny
son discovered the prisoner at Thirteenth and al
nut streets ; 1 and Officer Pennington arrested him
and brought him to the station.
The prisoner was committed in default of $1,500
bail to answer. He is a pretty good-looking man ;
small in stature, wears a heavy auburn-colored
moustache ; no whiskers. ~,He says he is an agent,
and lives at Washington, 11. 0.
Another Arrest.
After the above hearing, Detective George Smith
donned the habiliments of a first-class gentleman and
paid a visit to the Continental and Girard House.
He ObtlerVed quite a fine-looking man, seated in the
parlor. "The man," said George to us privately,
looked like a lifter—acted like a lifter, and I came
to the conclusion that he was a lifter, and told him
that I would like him to accompany me to the Cen
tral Station to see his pal.) , The hook was well
baited and the line skilfully thrown. The fellow
was caught. He and Wilson occupied the same
room together. It was searched. It did not take
long for Mr. Smith to find a couple of well-made
lifting coats. Better than this, the officer proceeded
to Howard's Express Company, where he recovered
all the goods that had been stolen from Mr. Camp
bell's store. The "trick" taken by the lifters in
the morning was pretty well done, but the result of
the game, while it reflects more than ordinary credit
upon the officer, will be gratifying to the community.
The prisoner gave the plain name of James Mor
gan. Wilson, we learn, has the alias of James Mans
field. A final hearing will take place at 2 o'clock
this afternoon.
A Prisoner Discharged.
The next case that occupied the attention of the
magistrate was that of Mary Ann McCarty, the cir
cumstances of which we noticed yesterday. It came
up for a final hearing. The accused was charged
with the larceny of a watch. The prisoner said she
found it. Mr. Lewis Fisher was called to the stand.
He testified as follows : I lost my watch ; I don't
know that it was stolen; I do not know how I lost it ;
can't tell anything about it; I must have lost it in
side my house ; I don't know that I ever saw this
woman (prisoner); don't know that she was ever
to my house* I advertised my watch as lost; at
least I authorized Mr. Robinson to do so and offer
VC reward for it; I did not authorize the arrest of
this woman. The case here closed. The prisoner
was discharged.
Wm. M. Bull, Esq., appeared as counsel for the
amused, who hail been deprived of her liberty since
Saturday night. That she is certainly entitled to
the reward seems to be generally conceded. Whether
she will rot it is en entirely diftrent affair.
The Wicked Flee—An Owner Wanted.
About five o'clock lest evening a gentleman got
out of a Fourth-street car, near Chestnut street, and
expressed his opinion that a colored man on the car,
with a piece of cassimere in his possession, had
stolen the article. Officers Bank ert and Warren
ton started on a run after the car. The colored in.
dividual saw them come. He snuffed danger afar
off " and quick as meditation on the wings of thought,
he sprang from the car, leaving the cassimere be
hind, and dashed down Harmony court with aston
ishing swiftness. The officers secured the cassimere
sindfstarted after the fugitive. He was headed off
by a Mr. Ballenger, and surrendered. He was ar
nignml last evening before Alderman Bonier to
whom he gave the name of George Stout. He was
committed to await a hearing. The piece of caul
mere awaits identification at the Central Station.
Final Hearing—Parties held to Answer.
George Smith, alias Scott, Wm. H. Watkiee, and
Thomas Wilson, the three young men who were ar
rested a few days since at the St. Louis Hotel,
on the suspicion that they were hotel.thieves, were
called up for a final hearing yesterday afternoon.
Daniel Dougherty, F.sq., appeared as counsel for
them, and made an eloquent appeal in their behalf.
The Alderman replied that although there was
nothing directly criminal against them, yet there
were circumstances that threw around them a shade
of suspicion that ought to be Investigated by a jury.
Ile would agree with the counsel, they had rights;
but he should not forget that otherpeople had rights
that should be protected. He would require each of
them to enter bail in the sum of $l,OOO, to answer
at court. Mr. Dougherty at once drew up an appli
cation for a writ of habeas corpus, that will probably
be heard on Saturday.
Alleged Pickpocket.
George Clifford was arraigned yesterday morning
on the charge of picking the pocket of Mr. John
Donnelly at the Democratic meeting held at Con
cert Bali on Monday. evening. The accused ran
away, and, during hie flight, threw the pocket-book
into the street. It was pickedupby Officer Rodgers,
who continued the chase. The fugitive was arrested
at Fifteenth and Market streets. He was required
to enter bail in $l,OOO to answer. The pocket-book

" Oh, you black wretch, for tantalizing me."
Then turning to the alderman, she continued,.." Yes,

The defendant, Samuel, was ordered to enter bail
in the sum of $6,0 to answer at court.
An old colored man named Rodgers, a professional
bail.goer, stepped up to enter the required amount,
but he was frightened o ff by her wonderful and
powerful loquacity. He hesitated a moment and
said, " Alderman, guess aint gwang to go bail; (let's

Searle was therefore left in a dilemma. In default
of bail he was committed.

THE QUO-WARRANTO CASES, AND TDB MANDAMUS
CASE — APPLICATION POU A MANDAMUS IN FAVOR
OP THOMAS J. DT:WIELD.
Yesterday, in the Supreme Court, the quo-war
ranto rules in the case of William Moeller, Thomas
J. Barger, and Isaac Leech, members of Common
Council from the Fifth, Second, and Twenty
fourth wards, to show by what right they hold their
said offices, were called up.
The suggestion in the ease of William Meeser, it
Will be recollected, asserted that the Fifth ward was
not entitled to two members of Common Council,
there not being 4,000- taxables, and,that.the defend
ant was elected without notice being given in the
sheriff's proclamation, by -f ive votes being Ma fOr
him, there being no candidate regularly nominated.
The suggestion in the camel' Thos. J. Barger avers
that he holds the office of member of Common Coun
cil from the Second ward, while at the same time
he holds the office of member of Legislature, which
by act of Assemby is prohibited.

to him by five of the returnjudges, when the returns
showed that John R. PdcOurdy, the relator here,
had thirty-two majority, and to whom all the judges
gave a certificate of election.
At the opening of the court, Benjamin H. Brew
ster, Esq., asked leave to present a petition on behalf
of Thomas J. Duffield, for a writ of alternative man
damus against the members of Common Council, to
show cause why a peremptory mandamus should
not issue commanding them to restore him to his
seat in said Common Council.
Chief Justice Lowrie
court, this
according the
Mies and practice of the court, this Proceeding Is not
admissible here, but that it was properly cognizable
in the Court of Common Pleas.
Mr. Brewster suggested that, as the Court of Com-
Mon Pleas had not excluslvejuriediation, and as the
court had already some eases Involving the same
principles, it would be well to hear them together.
Justice Woodward said that it would be well to
make the case an exception to the rule, and hear it
with the rest.
Justice Thompson was opposed to hearing the
Case.
Justice Strong said that he was opposed to the
bringing of their applications in their court at all.
It was very unfortunate; but he could not shut his
eyes ca s es fact that the court had received some
such , and it was but fair to receive this, and
hear it with the others.
Justice Read concurred with Justices Strong and
Woodward, and a majority of the court being thus
In favor of hearing the case, the application was
granted, and the writ made returnable on Saturday
next.
William L. Hirst, Esq., then called up the case of
the mandamus against the Select Council, saying
that a return had been flied by twelve of the *mem
bers of that body, admitting the facts in the sugges
tion, and averring their readiness to proceed with
the performance of their duty.
E. Spencer p r ece de nce , E said that the quo war
rant° rules had and they should be taken
up first. The rules for writs of quo warrant° were
then taken up together. Mr. Hirst then asked that
affidavits they had in reply to the petitions be
read,
This was objected to on the ground that they were
not admissible, but the court permitted then, to be
read, saying' that the question of their admissibility
.could be determined afterwards.
They were then read.
The affidavit of Isaac Leech, as read by Henry
DI. Phillips, Esq., recites that he is a member of
Common Council from the Twenty-fourth ward ;
that he held the certificate of election signed by the
return fudges, and on the organization of Common
Council presented it ; that no objection to its va
lidity, regularity, or to the truth of its return, Was
made at such time by any member of the said Com
mon Council, or by the relator, John It. McCurdy,
although present at the time, and that he was there
upon sworn In as a member. And further, that no
complaint of an undue election or of the false return
of deponent's certificate of election has been pre
sented to the Common Councils within the ten days
from the organization of said body by any quallfled
voters of the ward, orby any person or persons, re
quired by the act of Assembly in reference to the
contested election of a member of Counells.
The 'affidavit of Thomas J. Barger in reply to the
auggestion was also read by Henry M. Phillips,
Esq. Before reading this, Mr. Phillips said he de
sired to correct a mistake in the sUggestion. The
act of Assembly does not read "that no member of
the State Legislature, or any one holding office or
employment from or under the State, at the time of
said election, shall be a member of said Councils,"
as set out in suggestion, but reads that no mem
ber of the State Legislature, etc., at Mc time of Rua
election, shall be eligible as a member of said Councils.
The affidavit was then read, setting forth his election
on the Bth of October, 1861, to Common Council from
the Second ward, and on theist of May,1862, he drew
the two years' term of service ; that on the 14th day
of October, 1862, he was elected a member of the
Holum of Representatives from the Second Legis
lative district of Philadelphia ; hut that at the time
of his election to the Common Council of said city
deponent was not a member of the Legislature.
The affidavit of 'William Meeser, read by William
.L. Hirst, Esq., sets forth he received his certificate
of 'election as a member of Common Council from
eight judges of the election of the Fifth ward. That
he presented the same at the organization of Com
mon Council, and was duly sworn as a member;
that no petition contesting his election was pre
sented to said Council within the period of ten days
from such organization nor since. That the depo
nent MB elected to said office In place of William
Layer, having been placed in nomination by a con
vention of delegates selected by his fellow-citizens
of the ward representing a majority of the qualified
electors of the ward. That, in law and in fact, the

That the assessment of WM tt me returnee to
the County Commissioners' of containing 4,342
taxablcs. That afterwards 612 names of taxa
bles were underlined with red ink and struck from
the Het by the assessor, but that by a canvass of the
want since made, it has been ascertained that the
ward contained over 9,000 taxables at the last
assessment, and that of the 612 names underlined,
310 were found to be actual residents of the ward,
many of them being old and well-known residents
of the ward, and deponent is advised that the act of
the assessor in mutilating said record of assessment
was illegal. And the deponent contends that the
matters complained of are exclusively cognizable by
the Common Council according to the provisions of
The act of Assembly of Feb. 2, 1854, which enacts
that the Select and Common Council respective
ly shall, in like manner Ile each branch of the
Legislature of this Commonwealth, judge and
determine uponl the qualifications of their
members, and which act also enacts that cases of
"undue election" or "false return" of the member
thereof shall be tried by said Council respectively,.
upon petition of fifteen citizens of the proper yard,
presented within ten days after the organization of
Council.
2. That the Fifth ward le entitled to two members
of Common Council, by virtue of the act of Assem
bly conferring upon each ward of the city the right
to one member thereof for each 2,000 taxables
therein.
3. That the assessment of 1861 and the assessment
of 1602 (treating said mutilation as illegal), and the
facts set forth In this affidavit, show that the said
Fifth ward contains the necessary legal number of
taxable inhabitants to entitle said ward to two
members of Common Council.
The argument was opened by E. Spencer Miller,
Esq., for the relators. ter he had finished his ar
gument the Chief Justicesaid that the court could
not take jurisdiction of the case of McCurdy vs
Leech. It was purely a case Of contested election.
If the defendant presented a wrong certificate it was
the duty of the relators to have appeared and con
tested it. We would be usurping authority if we
undertook to say that we would correct the mis
take, if any has been committed, and therefore it
is none of our business to say anything about it.
As to the other two cases, we are disposed to hear
them.
Henry M. Phillips, Eaq., who followed for the de
fendants, then addressed himself to the cases of
Messrs. Barger and liteeser. He was followed on
the seine side by William L. Hirst, Esq. Charles.
Gilpin, Esq., closed the argument.
The mandamus case was then taken up.
The suggestion in aupport of the mandamus sets
forth that, by act of 2il February, 185i, ' it is provided
by the 28th section that Councils shall in joint con
vention, and by viva yore, appoint all the heads of
department not elective, who shall serve for such
periods as may be fixed by ordinance; that, by ordi
nances of the city, provision is made for the esta
blishment and regulation of the Department of
Highways, City Property and Water, and for the
election of a chief commissioner and two commie-
Moneta; of highways, commissioner of city property,
chief engineer of water works, commissioner of
markets, &e.
That by an ordinance of said city, approved Janu
ary 31, 1862, it is provided that an election shall be
held for heads of municipal departments, to wit, the
officers above named, by the Select and Common
Councils of the city, assembled jointly in convention
on the last stated meeting in January, 1862, or any
stated meeting in the month of February, 1882, and
annually thereafter on the second Thursday in the
month of February of each year ; and by the second
section of said ordinance it is provided that the
officers named in the first section thereof, to wit,
the officers above named, then in office or thereafter
to be elected, should hold their respective offices
until their successors shall have been elected and
duly qualified : Provided, That nothing in said section
contained shall be deemed to extend the terms of
said officers beyond the month of February in any
year.
That by virtue of said act of Assembly and said
ordinance it became the duty of the Select and Com
mon Councils to assemble jointly In convention, for
the purpose of electing said officers, on the second
Thursday of February, A. D. 18G3, to wit, on the 12th
instant.
That the Common Councilor said city did, at their
stated meeting held on the 6th inst., pass ajoint
resolution providing for the assembling of the said
joint convention of Councils, according to law, and
the same was duly transmitted to the Select Council
of said city, which Council postponed the conside
ration thereof until their next staled meeting, which
WSB held on the said 12th day of February, instant,
the day on which the elections aforesaid are by law
directed to take place, on which day Select Council
further postponed the consideration of said joint reso
lution, and adjourned without taking further action
thereon ; and at the next stated meeting of the said
Select Connell, held on the ligh inst. a joint resolu
tion to meet Common Council in joint convention
for that purpose was rejected by the votes of the
thirteen, members thereof hereinafter named; and
on the said 19th day of February, instant, a joint
resolution was passed by Common Council lino
vidmg for a joint convention on that day, to be held
for the purpose of electing said municipal officers,
and duly,transmitted to Select Connell. and the same
was postponed in said 'Select Council on the-same
day, whereby vacancies have occurred in the said
municipal offices, and it is the duty of Councils to
meet in joint convention for the purpose of electing
persons to fill the same before the first day of March
next, at which time the term of office of the present
incumbents will expire.

city that all contests and controversies as to mem
bership in the said Councils should be finally settled
by competent tribunals before heads of departments
are elected; the history of the present and past years
shows that the period now fixed for such election
often arrives in the very midst of these contests and
controversies which ought to be settled with calm
nese, reason, and moderation, but into which the aspi
rants for office at this very election or joint meeting
bring acrimony and violence, and useless disregard
of decency. The influence ofi these office-seekers is
most dangerous and unwholesome, and subversive
of all order and decorum. It warps, if it does not
overcome members of Council, and tends, in a very
great degree,.to that utter disregard of reason and
principle which marks our political parties, and
makes good anima tremble for our institutions.
For which reasons they pray to be hence discharged,
&e.
The counsel for the complainants then filed a
special demurrer to this return, assigning the follow
ing causes :
i. That the said return ia not made upon oath or
affirmation. • • .
2. That it is Insufficient in law by reason of any
matter or thing contained therein.
3. Because the said defendants object to meeting
with Common Council in convention as prayed, on
the alleged ground of the incompetency and disquali
fication of certain members, of the latter body,
whereas, by law, each Chamber is to judge of the .
qualification of its own members.
4. Because no reason or excuse is set forth in said
return for non-performance of the duty alleged.
Wherefore, the relators pray judgment.
A general demurrer was entered as to the other
returns, and the argument commenced by Wm. L.
Hirst, Esq., for relators, who was followed by E.
Spencer Miller and B. 11. Brewster, Esqe., for the
Union members of Select Council, and by George
M. Wharton, Esq., for the relators. On the conclu
sion of the argument the court adjourned until this
morning, at 10 o'clock.
The court room was crowded is every part during
the whole of the proceedings.

PURIFY THE BLOOD.—NOT A FEW
-a- of the worst disorders that afflict mankind arise from
the corruption that accumulates in the blood. Of all the
discoveries that have been made to purge it out none
have been found which could equal in effect AYER'S
CONFOUND EXTRACT OF SARSAPARILLA. It
cleanses and renovates the blood, instils the vigor of
health into the system, and purges out the humors which
make:disease. It stimulates the healthy inactions of
the body, and expels the disorders that grow and rankle
in the blood. Its extraordinary virtues are not yet wide
ly known, but when they are, it will no longer be a
question what remedy to employ in the great variety of
afflicting diseases that require an alterative remedy.
Such a remedy, that could be relied on, has long been
sought fore and now, for the first time, the public have
one on which they can depend. Our space here does not
admit certificates to show its effects, but the trial of a
single bottle will show to the sick that it has virtues ear
sing anything they have ever taken. Sufferers from
Scrofula, Scrofulous Swellings and Sores, try it and see
the rapidity with which it cures. Skin Diseases, Pim
p/es, Pustules, Blotches, Eruptions, are soon
cleaned out of the system.

'ONDERFUL. • DISCOVERY AND
WONDERFUL RESI7LTS ACCOMPLISHED BY
PROP. C. B. BOLLES, 1220 WALNUT Street—The
difference between fact and /efforts, of permanently
curing the suffering of their disease, and advertising to
cure, and showing no better evidence than offering re
ference of some persons in far-off localities , can well be
appreciated by flexions seiekers after health, upon atten
tively reading the following certificates of cases from
some of the most reliable gentlemen of Philadelphia, who
were permanently cured by Prof. C. H. BOLLES. of
1220 \VALE ITT street.
Facto are stubborn things, and as evidence is required
for the establishment of all fitcts admitting of the least
doubt, and as the astonishing cures perfored by Prof.
BOLLES are such as no other man has ever performed iu
this or any other city , it seems important in the present
case to offer some
_proof by way of certificates from
more
because
the most reliable gentlemen of this city, and more
because there are some hi this city who have the auda
city to claim to treat according to Prof, BOLLES' dis
covery, and these same persons are really ignorant of the
Positive or Negative Poles of any Electrical afachines.
and therefore. ProfeBOLLES has cautioned the sick
against trusting their health in such reckless hands.
Read the following certificates of cures of most emit
vats diseases fig Prof. Bolles, 1220 Iffatnut street,
Philadelphia.
The first cure was performed three years ago, and
continues well tothte ante :
About nine years ago I had a severe attack of dyspeptic
symptoms, which increased on me during the whole
time, and I supposed, and also my physicians that
treated me, that my real disease was dyspepsia, and at
first was treated for that disease. My symptoms were at
first great hunger, and bad and exhausted feeling in the
stomach, only when I ate often. Sometimes, however,
I experienced loss of appetite, very disagreeable nausea
in the stomach, pain in the eingustrum. heartburn, great
fullness about the stomach, and pain through the pyloric
region; a feeling sometimes of great weight in the sto
mach, collection of acidity in the stomach, fetid
taste in the month. When the sense of hunger came
on as above described, I hail a sense of tiutteriug
about the chest, and a sinking faint-feeling at the
pit of the stomach, which was, in my first attacks, re
lieved only by taking food, and many times in my walks
through the streets of Philadelphia, when these oinking
spells came On, I woo obliged to call at some reshwraut
and take food, but this only relieved me for the present
time, and thus I suffered for years under the best medi
cal treatment in the city. HOWever, my physician at
last pronounced my disease cancer in the stomach. I
continued to be treated for what I was informed to be
a cancer up to the time that Professor Bolles came to
this city and advertised his important discovery in the
application of Galvanism and other modifications of
Electricity, for the cure of (as he announced) acute and
chronic diseases, and more especially canons, tumors.
white swelling, Sc. I immediately called on Prof.
Bolles, at lin) Walnut street, for advice in my case. I
will here state that I considered my case a hopeless one,
but notwithstanding this,- my hopes were at once re
vived. when Prof. B. frankly told me that he could
cure me in a few day s, and I am frank in saying that in
twelve or fourteen treatments I was perfectly mired.
This cure to me looks mysterious, and will ever appear
a wonder of wonders. but to Prof. B. all seemed cer
tain, as he remarked at the con»noncement that he knew
to a day /lOW long It would take to produce a cure.
lam certain of a permanent cure from the fact that
about two years have elapsed since my cure, and I have
lied no symptoms of return. I think Professor Bolles
has made every important discovery in the application
of Electricity for the certain cure of acute slid chronic
diseases, know of a great number of persons whom ho
has cured of the most obstinate diseases, both acute and
chronic. I have watched his success for more than two
veers, and take pleasure in recommending his scientific
discovery to suffering humanity. I shall take Pleaaure
in being referred to by the diseased. _

The following wonderful cure 7
of epilepsy 3l'
was per.
&me , ' more than eight 'months ago and remaintr welt'
to this dote.
Read the following attentively
The following is a statement of facts in reference to my
condition and astonishing cure of Epilepsy:
For five years previous to my knowledge of Professor
C. H. Bolles' discovery of the therapeutic sulministra-
Hon of Galvanism, Ala.gnetism, and other modifications
of Electricity for the cure of all acute and chronic
diseases, I bad been severely altlicted with Epileptic
Fits of the most obdurate character, and had abandoned
all hopes of ever being; cured, as I had for years tried
the treatment and received the counsel of the most elm
newt Medical Men of the States. with the view of obtain
ing relief if any could be found among the Old Schools:
but all my °Warta were unavailing, and, therefore, all
hopes were abandoned, I then - knew of no gutsi er shill for the cure of obstinate cases than in the Old
Schools. 'About six months ago my mind was turned
to investigate the new discovery of Prof. C. H. Bol
les, 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, I was induced to
call on the Professor, and obtain his opinion of my cave:
After be had examined me about ten minutes, he frankly
informed me that he could care me, and offered to give•
me a written warrantee of a complete core, and in case
of a failure to charge me nothing. This at first seemed
an impossibility; bat the frankness and earnestness of
the Professor convinced me of his scientific accuracy im
the diagnosis of my case. He disclosed all my suffarings
and symptoms for five years past as well as I knew thews
myself. I will here state, l'or the good of humanity:
and especially those suffering as I was, that I minim-.
featly cured. I farther would state that more than four
months have elapsed since my cure, and I have hati'ms
symptoins, and, therefore, feel confident that I amenred.
I shall take Pleasure in being referred to,al. any time, by
any ono suffering as I was, and any information of my
condition previous to my cure will be freely given to any
one at 1542 North THIRTEENTH Street, Philadelnhim
