INW ...W Destructive Conflagration.— About three o'clock, yesterday morning, a Are was disco ’VereU in a two-and-a-half-story building, No. 429 iNorth Second street, owned by Evan Prowhattan. -•and occupied by Messrs. McManus & Croft, grocers. ‘The fire had evidently been smouldering for some time, as when the door was forced open the whole interior was found in a blaze, and the flames were shooting up to the roof. The building was entirely •destroyed, and the contents, consisting of stock and fixtures, were consumed. The building is supposed to be insured. Messrs. McManus & Croft have an insurance of $2,000 intheßoyal upon their stock and "fixtures. This will about cover their loss. SThe flames extended to a two and-a-half-story ime building adjoining on the south, No. 427. This was owned by H. Greer, and occupied by Amos Wat son as a flour and feed store on the first floor, and by Israel Wolf and family as a dwelling and cap manu factory. Apart of the first floor was occupied by a butcher, and the cellar by huckster women, and the - building is known as the Gay-street market house. The upper part was badly damaged, and the whole -structure was completely flooded with water. Mr. Watson’s stock was almost entirely ruined. He has -an insurance of $l,OOO in the Giraru, which will pro bably cover his loss. The Wolf family lost every 'thing, and had barely time to escape from the burn ing stiucture in their night clothes. Mrs. Wolf was " rescued with great difficulty. A bureau which con tained two or three watches and chains, and an amount of money, was found in the ruins, but the jewelry and money had been abstracted. The total 1088 is estimated at si,ooo. Upon this there is an insurance of $5OO in the Niagara Insurance Com pany of New York. N O. 425, corner of Willow Btreet, is a two-aud-a half-story brick building, owned by Caroline O. Hay woodland occupied by A. Henze as a lager-beer sa loon and dwelling. The building and effects were considerably damaged by water, and the cellar flooded. The loss is covered in the Fire Associa tion. No. 431, adjoining the grocery store on the north— a two-and-a-half-atory brick building, with a frame attachment in the rear—Also took fire. This build ing was owned by Evan Prowhattan, and was occu pied by J. William Daune aa a lager-beer saloon and •dwelling. Two other German families also lived in some of the upper rooms. The upper part and rear of the structure was badly burned, and this building shared the fate of the others in regard to water. Mr. ; Daunehas an insurance of st,oootn the Girard,upon his stock, fixtures, and household effects, which will doubtless cover his loss. The cellars of thiß building wore also occupied by market-women. No. 433, a four-story brick, owned by William L, Stickney, and occupied by himself and family as a dwelling. The firßt floor was used by J. Stickney aB a clothing Btore. The stock was damaged to the ex tent of $2OO, and is insured in the Spring Garden. The furniture sustained some damage by water, also insured in the Spring Garden. Building slightly damaged by fire and considerably by water; insured in the North America. * No. 435, comerof Pegg street, a three-and-a-half •tory brick, owned by Charles Day, and occupied by him as a clothing store and dwelling, was slightly damaged by water and is fully insured. The cellar which was occupied by J. Maxwell, painter, was completely flooded with water. His loss is $l5O, and he has no insurance, in consequence of his policy having expired four days ago, and a neglect to re new it. The origin of the fire is not known, at present, but is being investigated by the fire marshal, Heroes of the War. — The Rev. Capt. J. J. Geer, assistant adjutant general on General Btckland’B staff, and Lieut. Pettenger, one of the Chattanooga Railroad adventurers, were in the city yesterday. Both of these gentlemen were prisoners in rebel dungeons for a long time. Captain Geer, after enduring every privation and hardship, made his escape from rebeldom in company with Lieut. A. P. Collins, also of the Union army. Lieutenant Pettenger and Captain Geer have, since their re lease, travelled over considerable country, and have addressed several of our Union Leagues. The former was for some time associated with the School a religious pamphlet published in this city. He vo lunteered from Jefferson county, Ohio, to enter the three-months service at the outbreak of the rebel lion. He was in the first battle at Bull Run, and in several skirmishes during his firßt campaign. At the expiration of his first enlistment, he immediate ly volunteered for three years or the war, in the 2d Ohio Regiment, and re-entered the service in the Southwest. In April,'lB62, an expedition to destroy tlie com munication b on the Georgia Central Railroad, be tween Atlanta and was undertaken at the suggestion of a Kentucky soldier, named An drews, under the sanction of General Mitchell. The plan was to penetrate the rebel lines, and reach a point on the road where they could seize a north ward-bound locomotive and train, dash back to Chattanooga, cut the telegraph, and destroy the bridges behind them, until they reached our lines. The party selected to perform this hazardous work, consisted of twenty-four men, selected for their dis cretion and courage. They left their respective regi ments and companies in camp, and in small squads, dreßsed in citizens’ clothes, and carrying only side •arms, reached Marietta. The next morning after their arrival at Marietta, they took the return train as civilians and passengers, but determined to ac complish their plans by the aid of the very engine that drew the train on which they entered unsus pected. At a station called Big Shanty, while the engi neer, conductor, and passengers were taking break fast, these daring hoys detached the locomotive and three box cars from the train, and started oft at fall speed for Chattanooga. The spectators were amazed and alarmed, but not in time to check the flying heroes. They were unfortunately obliged to switch out of the way for one. or two extra trains south ward, and detained, until their pursuers, in another swift engine, were dOBe behind them. They fre quently halted to obstruct the track and cut the tele graph, but were as often hurried onward by the shrill screams of the pursuing locomotive.. It was an exciting flight, and life and death were' Involved. They strained the locomotive.to the high est possible speed, reaching a velocity of more'thaa a mile a minute! But after a chase of a hundred miles, wood and water failed, and the rebels were in sight behind them! They were compelled:to abandon the train and scatter to the woods." Here they were hunted down .by bloodhounds, and cap tured, every one l They were thrown into dismal durgeons; exposed to all manner of cruelty and oppression, and seven of them executed on the gallows withouta moment’s warning. A few escaped from their prisons and reached our lines in safety, and two or three are sup posed to have perished in the Bwamps. Six were finally exchanged after eleven months’ incarceration in rebel prisons, among whom was Lieut. Pittinger. The Lieutenant has been promoted, and at 'Wash ington city received from the President a gold medal as a token of the nation’s regard. * Casualties in the 98th Regiment, P. V.—The 88th is of Gen. Wheaton’s Brigade, at tached to the 6th corps, under Gen. Sedgwick, and after the storming of the heights at Fredericksburg on Sunday, the 3d inßtant, was marched in line of battle to the front at Salem church.

She arrived at Fort Mifflin on Monday morning, discharged her ammu nition, (and arrived at the yard in the afternoon. She comes'here'for repairs to her boilers, and will probably remain several weeksl The Seneca left New York on the 15th of October last, and haß been engaged on blockading duty in Admiral Dupont’s squadron during the winter. For three months of this time she was in the Ogechee river, Georgia, watching the movements of the rebel privateer Nashville, which was waiting a favorable opportunity to get out to sea.

Adjourned. ■ - The Society of Fkiends. —At the re cent yearly meeting of the Society of Friends, held in this city, the consideration of the replies to the Queries, as forwarded by the respective quarterly meetings, occupied the first three days of the week. The requirements ofthe discipline were found to ?be well complied with, with a few exceptions. The -testimony of the Sooiety against war was found by '.the responses to have been frequently transgressed— many of the younger members having taken up arms • in the existing struggle to quell the rebellion. The subject waß passed by the meeting without much comment, it being felt that very few present were entirely clear of all complicity with the offending members. A reference-waß made to sufferings of members of the Society in Northeastern Virginia, and to the death of Job Throckmorton, who was . captured, with other Friends, while enronte to their, place of worship, by the rebels, ahd died from priva tion and exposure. Two conferences ofthe Friends’ Educational Association were held, at which it was stated that subscriptions amounting to between six-*' ty and seventy thousand dollars had already been received for the establishment of a college, to be -.under the exclusive control ofthe Society.

The petty offences will hereafter be tried by post court, mometeri Interesting from a Philadelphian in Gkn. Rosjjcraks* Army.—We are permitted to make the following extracts from a letter written by J- private in the Third Ohio Cavalry, now serving in the army of General Rosecrans, to a relative in this city. The writer is a native of Philadelphia,.and it will be seen that he has but a poor opinion of those among us whose chief occupation seems to be to ma lign and embarrass the Government on every pos sible ocoasion aDd in every possible way: * * * “The Army of the Cumberland is just now actively engaged in makiDg preparations for the great struggle which is apparently not far distant. “ There is, at present, but little sickness among the soldiers here, especially among the old troops. I never saw the men in better spirits. The rank and file have the greatest confidence in the commanding genera) (Rosecrans), and all look forward to the fu ture with brilliant hopes and confident anticipations of victoiy. As a whole, the army was never in as good fighting condition, or as well prepared to meet the enemy, as now. Thoroughly disciplined, well ari P© d » clothed, and equipped, and fired by the most patriotic devotion to the cause in which we are en gaged. we certainly will not disappoint the just ex pectations of our friends ; of that you may be assu red. We are united as one man, and with brave hearts and willing hands, are determined, when the opportunity offers, to strike such a blow as will cause the sham fabric of the Southern Confederacy to tremble and quake to its very foundation. * “Old wornont politicians, good-for **according to army regulations, ■ [timed over to the quartermaster, branded with the letters C. D., and sold at auction long ?,???*! a .u demoralization. Lying partisan jour nalists—aided, I am-sorry to.say, by a few unprincipled dupes-.here among us—take up the strain, and represent } a jcolumns as a rabble, and a mob. Not satisfied with this, they go further, ana abuse and sneer at every effort of the Government to suppress this wicked rebellion.- But woe to these men, say we, for as they sow they will surely reap. Cowards and traitors of the Worth, beware! The day of reckoning is fast coining, and retributive justice will soon overtake you. After this rebellion is crushed, as crushed it will be, we who have suffered and endured every privation for our country, and its flag, will return to our homes sufficiently strong to punish summarily every Butternut and Oo2>perhead that infests ihe land. . Delegates.— Tlie following delegates were elected by the Philadelphia County Medical Society to theJfourteenth annual session of the Me dical Society of the State of Pennsylvania, which will be held in. this city, on Wednesday, the 10th day of June next: Drs, William Ashmead, Wm. B. Atkinson, John Bell, T. E. Beeaeley, Franklin Bache, Robert Burns, Joseph Carson, D. F. Oondie, James M. Corse, William Darrach, G. Emerson, Albert Frickd, David Gilbert, Lewis P.

Wilmington.. Delaware Wisconsin.... Ohio Wheeling, Va. ~ $2,050,150 It is the expectation of the Treasury Department that the small bonds will hereafter be issued in suf ficient amounts to meet all subscriptions. They have already made their appearance, and large ac cessions are promised daily. A Good Security.— Notwithstanding the large and increasing debt of the city of Philadel phia, her loans command a high premium in the market, and are much sought after aB a permanent investment. The city treasury has seldom been in bo good a condition, and warrants not only of this, but of past years, are paid promptly on presenta tion. In previous years it was a constant grievance that public-school teachers and other employees of the city could not obtain, without a heavy discount, the wages they so dearly earned. The City Trea surer announces that he is ready to pay alb loans maturing July 1,1863, and January l, 1861, interest ceaßing at date of payment. Thus far, there have been very few applicants for payment of unmatured loans, an evidence of the people’s confidence in the stock, and its value as an investment for idle funds. Patents Granted.— Tlie following Phi ladelphians' have recently received patents from the United States Patent Office: Levi Short, for improved composition for filling shells. David Stewart, for improvement in cooking stoves and ranges. Joseph Whitcar, for improve ment in hoisting oyster dredgeß. S. Lloyd Wie gand, for improved process of manufacturing illumi nating gas.

W, Grand Secretary—William Curtis, No. 28. R. W, Grand Treasurer—M. R. Muokle, No. 46. R. W. Grand Representative—J. Alexander Simp son, No. no. 1 The vote polled by the various lodges was large.

For "duplication of "stock, the vote stood 167 yeas, ill nayß, and for increasing dues, yeas 240, nays 60. The Cooper-shop Volunteer Re freshment Saloon.— A number of benevolent and patriotic ladies residing in the southern section of the city propose giving a grand fancy and floral fair some time in June, the proceeds of which will be devoted to the Cooper-shop Volunteer Refresh ment Saloon, Hospital, and Soldiers* Home. The fair wilLbeJield in the spacious saloon of the insti tution. Base Ball.—Th» challenge of the Mi nerva Base Ball Club to the first nine of the Mercan tile has been declined. The former club is composed of acknowledged good players, but, being quite youthful, it is looked upon with jealousy by the older clubs. Sale of A Prize Schooner.—Yester day, by order of the United States Marshal, the prize Echooner Major.E. Willis was sold, at Callow-' hill-street wharf, for the sum: of ; : i Fraudulent Note.-—There is now being circulated a two-dollar note, purporting to be the true issue ofthe Drovers’ Bank of Columbia, Indi ana. There is no such bank in existence. TH E P O LIC E. [Before United-States. Commissioner Heazlett. ] Novel Attempt to get a Sou out of Prison, Charles Shinn was arraigned before the United States Commissioner yesterday afternoon on the charge of harboring Wra. Dawson, a deserter from the service of the‘United States. The charge was preferred by Jere miah Dawson, the father. The case, however, was abandoned by Mr. ColTey, the United. States District At torney, because the alleged desertion took place prior to March Sd, 1863, at which time the conscription act was passed by the Congress of the United States. / The following evidence was elicited: Jeremiah Dawson sworn.—l resido in the Twenty-fifth ward, late Aramingo; my son, William Dawson, enlisted in the. California Regiment, late Col. Baker, for three years or the war; he was in Cantain'Hicks’company; lie arrived in Philadelphia about the 6th or Bth of No vember last, had no uniform on; I saw him on the 15th of that month, and expressed my astonishment to see him; he said he had a furlough; I asked him whatkind of a one, and he said *' Frenchhe said he was going back again in a week; I understand that he has beeniii New York; he was at Mr. Shinn’s house as late as the 29th of last November; don’t know.that he has been there since. The District Attorney here abandoned the case, as it did not come under the law that was subsequently passed, "Where is your son at present, do you know?” asked the District Attorney. * * He is in Moyamcnsing prison, ” replied tbo father. Mr. Charles Brooke, counsel for Mr. Shinn, here stated that young Dawson is in prison on the charge of robbing the house of Mr. S. The case here closed, and the parties on all sides re tired from the office. . . [Before Mr. Alderman White; ] Larceny of a Law Book, Early yesterday morning, Officer McConaghy, of the Fifthward, took into custody a drunken female, giving the name of Ellen Rigging, on suspicion of having stolen a law hook that she had in her possession, and ol which she could not rive a satisfactory account. The prisoner was conducted to the station-house, and at the morning levee was arraigned before Police Magistrate White. She was committed to await a hearing: . The book. "Sbarswood’s Commentaries,” we believe, belonged to M. Russell Thayer, Esq., and wah stolen from his office. He appeared before the magistrate, but declined prose cuting the woman who had stolen the book. She having no ostensible means of procuring an honest livelihood, the alderman made out a commitment under the vagrant act against the defendant. [Before Mr. Alderinan Ogle. ] Brothers and Sisters of Love and Charity Have Another Fight, There is a pretty strong organization of colored folks in Philadelphia who are known by the name, style, and title of the Brothers and Sisters of Love and Charity. Unfortunately for the organization, some of the members of the order will fight with each other, resort to tho arbi trament of the law, and thus expose their belligerent propensities. About a year since, a riot of considerable magnitude was indulged in by the brothers and sisters, and the result was a complete and most ample investiga tion being made in the court of Quarter Sessions, that occupied several days. There were suits and counter suits entered against the parties, the developments of which were decidedly amusing and interesting. Since that period, the Brothers and Sisters kept from before the public eye until yesterday, when a number of them appeared before Alderman Ogle,, as follows: John H. llughes.Emma Heimuingway,hllaNixon, and Elizabeth ■Woodward, and were charged on the oath of Benjamin S. Johnson, with having committed an assault and battery upon him on the night of tho 15th dnst.. at the Hall of the Philadelphia Institute, in Lombard street, above Seventh. It seems from the evidence adduced that Mr. Hughes, one of the defendants, went among the Brothers and Sisters on last Friday night; he had a cane, he had not been there long before he passed some remarks about tho color of a brother’s skin, denominating him as a ‘ ‘ black nigger. ” .This un kind remark attracted the attention ot several sisters, seated near by, one or two of wliom resented the insult. Some hard words passed, and Brothor Johnson stepped in asapeaco-makor, when, "all at once,” Mr. Hughes brought his "cane down wjiack on,the head” of the' peace-roakcr aforesaid, exclaiming, at the same* timo, - that lie had "come prepared for them this time.' s ” The blow received by Johnson was a pretty severe one ; the sisters rushed in; Emma Hemmingway jnmping upon the back of Mr. Johnson. He was, ot course, at their mercy. They all claimed, however, to he peace-makers, bet the prosecutor thought otherwise, aud therefore brought the present suit. Tho parties were all bound over to answer at court. , Previous to the above case Mr. Johnson was arraigned before Recorder Encu, on complaint of Mr. Hughes, charging him with assault and battery. He was bound: over to answer at court. CBefoie Mr. Alderman Beitler. ] .. Juvenile Delinquents! Yesterday afternoon two little heya, respectively named George Watkins aud Henry Quinn, whonad been in the employ of Messrs.

Thomas, the Collector of the port of Philadelphia, was to have been further investi gated yesterday-afternoon, before Alderman Beitler. One hour after the time agreed upon, the parties being all present, Mr. Vandyke, counsel for the defence, stated that, in the first place, he desired an examination of witnesses, expecting that Mr. Thomas, the prosecutor, would have been' placed on the witness stand, in order that tho de fendant might have all the'benefit to he derived from a cross-examination. Inasmuch as this will not he done' at the present preliminary investigation, ho would waive any further examination of witnesses, and enter bail to answer at court,,at which tribunal we shall have Mr. ■ Thomas called to the stand. : Mr. Pierce, counsel for the prosecution, said that he did not'conslderjthe evidence or Mr. Thomas pertinent to the issue, or be would have.called him to tho stand at first: If. at any time .'during the progress'oF the case he con sidered s it necessary to place his cliont on the witness stand, he would do so, but not otherwise. The case here closed,.Mr. Pine entering bail in the sum of £SQO to answer at court. Tire Result of Intoxication.

This Corps shall consist of Companies, and if it shall hereafter he thought best, of Battalions. The Companies shall be made up from the following sources, viz: . • • First By taking those officers and enlisted men of . commands now in the field (whether actually present or temporarily absent) who, from wounds received in ac tion or disease contracted in the line of duty, are unfit for field service, hut are still capable of effective garrison duty, or such other light duty as may be required of an Invalid Corps. Regimental Commanders shall at once make out, from information received from their Medical and Company Officers, and from their own knowledge, rolls (according to the Form furnished) of the names of all the officers and enlisted men under their commands who'fulfill the following conditions, viz: 1. That they are unfit for active field service on ac count of wounds or disease contracted in the line of duty; this fact being certified by a Medical Officer in the ser vice, after personal examination. ... 2. That they are fit for garrison duty; this fact being likewise certified by the Medical Officer, as above, after personal examination. 3. That they are, in the opinion of their Commanding Officers, meritorious and deserving. lies© rolls shall be certified by the Examining Sur geon and 'Regimental Commander, and transmitted, through the regular channels of military correspond ence, to. the Provost Marshal-General of the United States. The Regimental Commander shall enter in the column of remarks, opposite each officer’s name, on the roll, a statement as to the general character of the officer ftrr in telligence, industry, sobriety; and attention to duty ; and all intermediate Commanders shall endorse thereon such facts as they may possess in the case, or if they have none, they shall state how far they are willing to endorse the opinion of the officer or officers making the recommendation. Similar rolls shallbe forwarded from time to time, whenever the number of men fulfilling the conditions enumerated or the exigencies of the service may render it expedient. Secon d. By taking those officers and enlisted men still in service and borne on the rolls, hut who are absent from duty, in Hospitals or Convalescent Camps, or are otherwise under the control of Medical Officers. In these casesf the Medical Officer .in attendance shall pre pare the rolls according to Form, entering the names of officers and men from the same Regiment on a roll by themselves, and send them, with the certificate of tho Surgeon, duly signed, to the .proper-Regimental Com mander, who will forward them, as heretofore specified, subject to the same conditions and requirements. If, in any case, the Regimental Commander shall think an. officer unfit, in point of character, to continue in the'ser- • vice of the Invalid Corps, though disabled and certified by the Surgeon, he will state his objection in the column of remarks, and note the exception before signing tne certificate. If any officer or enlisted man now in the service, but absent and beyond the reach of a Medical Officer in- charge of a-Bospital or Convalescent Camp, desires to enter this Corps, he will take the course indi cated below 'for those who have been honorably dis charged the service. • ‘ • - V .

It stimulates the healthy functions of the! body, and expels the disorders that grow and rankle in the blood. Its extraordinary virtues are not yet widely known*’ but. when'they are, it will no longer.be a ques tion what remedy, toemploy in the'greatvariety of af flicting diseases that require an.alterative remedy. Such aremedy, that could be relied on, has long been sought for, 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 surpassing any thing they have ever taken. Two tablespoonsful of the EXTRACT of SARSAPA RILLA added to a pint of water, is equal to the Lisbon Diet Drink, and one bottle is fully equal 'to a gallon of the Syrup of Sarsaparilla, or the Decoction, as usually made.
