' 2 E. MIIITIA. ORGANIZATIONS.—The old
ytti a organizations that before the war excited 80;
rich admiration by their discipline and gallantry,
. and which, on parade exhibited the strength and
martial character of Philadelphia youth, have
gradually disappeared, until now there is scarcely
the skeleton of them left. At the call to arms, every
re inient marched forth with alacrity and spirit.
ere.was but little recruiting required to fill up
1 eir rank's, and the:members felt' privileged that

ey could go out as a body, with no additions from
those - who had not long before subseribed their
name(' upon the -rolla. On their return, and the

The old militia dwindled from its former importance,
AO dietinotivoorganizationm..The war needed the ser
ies) of every man capable of bearing arms, and there
were very few of the old ~ holidaysi soldiers, as the
militia were unjustly called, who did not volunteer.
No , soldiers have earned such enduring laurels as
the old militiamen, and it is mush' to be regretted
that the militia system in Philadelphia is not now
in that state of perfection, required alike by the ne
cessities of the times and to provide for emergencies.
The raids into Pennsylvania stimulated •us in this
Matter, but much might yet be done towards an end
universally admitted to be beneficial, In time of
peace prepare for war, and white secure from rebel
. invasion, time is offered to build up militia regi
ments that would be effective in time of danger.
The regiments suffer because of the necessary ex
penditure required to keep them alive. Home rent,
gas and other expenses, must be paid, and this re..
'din assistance" from without. The Gray Re.
.serves,-Blue Reaerves, the Custom House Regi
ment, and others, yet maintain their organization,
and hold regular drills. It is designed on the part
of some of those regiments to request of Councils
such pecuniary aid as may be required to maintain
them nal lit them for All emergencies.

Yesterday.morning the court' met to hear the motion

fires class, the other is or a man alleged to be over 36
pears of age and married,
The' constitutionality of the act is questioned on the
' *round thief it is in derogation of the reserved rights of
the State and of the liberties and rights of the citizens
' thereof ; that the authority be exercised under the act
islet in fact derivable from the powers by the Conetitu

buttes and the people thereof all authority not so parted'
with, the Constitution has 'given to the Legislature no
power, as a power. over the militia, such as is attempted
'.to be exercised under tie conscription act ; and that the
power given in the Constitution to raise armies is a powsr
to raise armies as armies are raised - among men wno are
free, and as hitherto they have been rahed in the United
States,
There was but a very slim alieutlance In the court
room; in fact, a remarkably meagre one. taking into
consideration the eithrts that have been made toy Prism
'dice the minds of citizens againet the conscription act.
There was a large sprinkling of the lesser lights'otthe
bar, who gather their inspiration from the great apostles
-who, It was announced, were to hold forth, ands small
gathering oz Democratie politicians and those personally
interested in the question before Lae court. Beyond this
there was nothing to indicate that any political qnestlon
wee tieing discussed; certainly nothing to induce the
thought that One =labial no much has been said pro and
conwas 'ander consideration.
On the court's Ibeing formally opened by the prothono •
tary, , Chief Justice Lowry said they had met this morn
ing to near the motion granted by- Justice Woodward.
The paper books in the case were then banded up, and
. the thief Justice inquired who was on/ the other side.
Messrs. Chas. Ingersoll, Geo. W. Biddle, Geo. Id.Whar.
to n, and Peter McCall appeared for the complatinantS,
but the United States did nut appear to be represented.,
Mr. Biddle stated that he has supposed Mr. Coney. the
United states District Attorney, and John C. Knox,Esq.,
would appear for the United elates, bat that they were
not now pi esent. Paper hooks had been furnished them
at their request, and Mr, Wharton hail been informed
by Mr. Coney tnat it was his intention and dellre to be
present at the argument. Mr. • Wharton also elated this
as a fact, and Mr. Ingersoll added his testimony to that '
of his colleagues on this point. e.
The Chief Justice,said, that unless there was an ap-
Pewter= for the United States by Mr. Knox, they. could
not recognize him as an Attorney for the United Scats"
This rather confused the programme of proceedings for
moment, and Mr, Ingersoll hastened to the redone. He
had sent paper books to Mr. Knox, in response to a
note from teat gentleman requesting them, and asking
whether he (Mr. ingerSoll). was bare that the court
wonlo sit on the 10th inst. . .
It appeared that notice had been given to bir. Coffey.
and the court ordered that the 'necessary proof be made
of melt service.
In the meantime a messenger had been despatched for
Messrs. Coffey and Knox, and he returned with word.
that they were out of town.
Mr. Bide Is then said that, under the impression that
those gentlemen would be present, he and his colleagues
had arranged their order of proceeding. As they wore
not present, however, it would remain tor the court to
say how many counsel they tveula. hear.
The Chief Justice said that thsy could not break through
41 err regurar rule. that there being no reply there could
be no rejoinder. They would hear two cases, and, there
lobe, only two counsel. '
It was then arranged that Messrs. Wharton and Inger
soll should conduct the argument for the complainant.
Mr. Wharton, having' nret made the proof of service
of notice, accordingly opensilthe case. Oar readers will
weigivhis'argument as its merits entitle it to be weighed:
One part of his opening, however, was so unwittingly
destroyed by a remark from the Chief Justice, that we
are tempted to separate. it .Dorn the rest. After stating
the mode adopted by the act, he said he believed the act
to be in substance a copy of the French conscription
law, That law' Was Well enough, under an imperial or
despotic system, the tteory of such a 'system being that
certain persons, wso cannot help it, are taken to light,
and those who can help it, remain 'at home and farmeh
'lnc Chief -Justice inquired of Mr. Wharton if he had
a copy' of the French law.' .
Mr.' 'Wharton replied that he had not, and. therefore,
he had stated that our act was believed to be a copy of
the French law. He had endeavored tq obtain`a copy of ,
lt,-but had not been successful : ' - .Excepting this little
episode, the argument went on smoothly - onongh.
Mr. Wharton said:
Itis•proposed to argue the question before the court
as one of mere constitutional law.
The point to be determined is the legality of the as
serted Power of the Federal Government to „compel the
military service of the citizens of the United States by,
direbt'action upon them. The mode adopted in the con- '
mutton act of March 3, 1863, is to enroll the entire male
population between certain twee, and to select from the
mass, persons by lot. The latter are the soldiers for the •
•
time beingynnless they purchase their exemption from
This act is supposed to be a copy, in substance, of the
French conscription law. That law, le well enough
under an imperial or despotic system. Such a syst em
employs the lower Muncie offensive warfare, while
the higher classes are relieved a money commnta- -

A : militia swim, In. free States. Is quite another
• thing., .It is , employed chiefly fornefensive warfare, and
it suppoees a liability on the part of all able-bodied nisi
tens to render military service to their country in case
•of emergency; It does not oast the burthen upon men of
email pecuniary Means': all are squally liable to thst•
TTie Constitution of the United States asserts this princl
. ple. I gzee a well regulated militia as necessary
to the secur it yof a free State. The coneception act by'
no means carries out, but on the other hand, infringes -
this axiom .. -
It may be said that if the Government can compulsori
ly take, at its own pleasure. the entire male population
of the- Union, or 'any arbitrarily-designated portion. ,
- and make soldiers of them against their will,' the mode , :
-of accomplishing the end is nnimportant. /I.selections .
by lot, or draft; Is asserted to be a fair mode, If, on the'
•••othernapd. the Government cannot do this, neither can,
iteelect portions of that population, in its own way, and
kforce them to serve in the army.
Thrquee,o4l, therefore. comes to this; Has the Go-
Vaninent of ,t,he .• United States the constitutional -right'
to force or impress citizens, at will, to enter the ranks alls'
soldiers; and thin; too, with the privilege, to those who".
are able, to - doles), to bur an exemption, which their
Poorer n eighbors cannot purchase?
It must be notedthat it hi 'animation of the power of
the Federal Government — not of any State Government.
The former possesses only .those powers which are ex.
pressed or by n ecessary implcation conferred upon it'
,
by the Consttution: ( Martin vs. Hunter, 1 Wheat, 304.
Briscoe vs. The Bank, 11 Peters 457.) The latter has
reserved powers of sovereignty. While: the powers con
ferred upon the Federal Government are supreme, those
not conferred continue to exist either In the States re
spectively' or in the .people: (Martin vs. Hunter, r ut
ortyrra) We must turn, therefore, to the Constitution, of
•
the llnitett States for a solution of the Question before the
court.
- The power of Congress to pass and enforoe the con
scription setts supposed to be found in the twelfth clause
of the eighth sectlokotthe.firet. article , of the-Federal'.
Constitutiori,:4hloll,- enumerating the power? of Con
grese, grants, in the,particular clause, power 'to raise
gnu support armies; and. further,-tne power
.posed . to'be - foundinthe fifteenth clause of the same sec
tion and article, in the words, "To provide for calling
forth the militia to execute the laws of the Union, stm
prfas insurrections, and repel invasions."
The 18th clause, which is the last of tke same section,
invests Congress with power "to make all laws which
shall be necessary and proper for carrying into exe
cution the foregoing powers, which are those exPresslY
c eNzrated and granted, and which include the two net
It le admitted by all writers that this last clause con
tains no independent grant of power.
Is the power claimed under the conscription act
vested in Congress by the clauses of the Constitution re
ferred to?'
To construe properly-any portion of the Ccinstitation
we roust look at the whole instrument. If that instru
ment embodies and aleerts principles of human liberty,
we must construe"obiectionable clauses in such -way as
to preserve those principles rather than to destroy them.
The power bailable armies May certainty be construed so
as to give Congress the power to raise them by voinn-,
tory enlistment. The history of the legislation of the
United States shows that the power has been construed in
that way. Laws have been passed. starting from the foun
dation of the (3 ovei nment, which have provided for en
listments in the army of the United States. Under the
exercise of the power in that manner, such armies as the
Union from time to time has raised have been raised
and, on the otherhand, it may be asserted that, until
the passage of the act of March 3d last, no statute had
been passed by Congress enforcing military - service.
That act is a novelty in the legislation of the United
.States...-Seventy-four years after the organization of
the Federal Government, and after our country has
passed through several wars without the attempted
exercise of the power by Congress, the ludiciaryis called
upon for the first time to decide the constitutionality of
the measure.
If the, power of Congress is confined to raising , armies
by 'voluntary enlistment, then the reserved power -of -
the - States to enforce a draft by their own authority. in
order to keep - troops in time of war—and, further, a like
power in the States to organize and maintain a militia—
will both be preserved,
On the contrary, if the power of Congress over the sub
ject-matter include the power of conscription,. and cover
the entire male .forte 'of. all .the citizens of the United
States, then the reserved, powers of the States in the par
ticulars referred to cannot bep reserved, because they
cannot, be prosaically exerted The State forces disap
pear, because absorbed by the Federal forces.
That the generality of the words "to raise armies".
may be properly restrained, is shown by considering the
connected -word "support:" Congress 'has power to
!raise and support armies. Armies may be supported in
various ways. Contributions for the support of the mili- '
t ary might be levied indiscriminately, on the citizens•
_consequently, pillage and destruction might he indulged
So, armies may be supported by means of Potgrees,
in a legitimate mode; acquiring the'necessary - money,
arid then paying thereout the officers and men, No one
doubts that the latter is what is meant by the Constitu
tion. Congress having, by other clauses, power I& bor
row money on the credit of the United States,d also to
le*, and collect taxer, &c., in order to pay debts and pro
vide for the common defence, the support of armies raised
under its authority would naturally fall upon the
treasury of the Union rather than be considered irichiwge
directly upon the property of the citizens, to be levied '
tbereout, either generallyorby lot. - ' '
• But it may be asked, What powers of the States, or`
what other powers con'erred on Congress; are infringed
by the conscription act? •
The answer, may be thus give
- 'A well-regulated militia," the Constitntibi says,
• "is necessary to the security of a free State. The right 4
of the people, ,therefore, to keep and bear arms shall not
be infringed..,' ; - •
The Constitution - further says Congress shall have .
power- "to _provide for calling forth the militia," arc. ;
"tor organizing, arming, and disciplining -the militia,
and for governing such_part.of them as may be employed
in the service of-. the United States, reserving to the
States, respectively, the appointment of the officers, and
the authority of training the militia according to the dis
cipline prescribed by Congress."
Further. it says: 1" The President shall be Command
erin-chief of the Army and Navy of the United States,
and of the militia of the several States, when called into
the actual service of the United States."
• The States re prohibited only "from keeping troops
in time of peace" without the consent of Congress. Tim
right is reserved to them to keep troops in time of war.
These various provisions distinctly recognize and affirm
the existence of militia and other troops raised by State
authority, as bodies diderent altogether from armies of
the United Slates. Now look at the conscription act
- It declares that " all able-bodied male citizens of the
United States, and persona•of foreign birth who shall
have declared - on oath their intention to become citizens
under and in pursuance of the laws thereof, between the
ages of .twenty and . forty.flve years," with certain slight
_exceptions, shall constitute the motional forces, and
shall be liable to perform military duty in the service of
the United States, when called out by the President for
that purpose •' -
When called out by the President, therefore; the
whole military force of the country becomes a Federal
force, andt subject to his, orders. It ceases to• be the
militia, or any part thereof. The militia of the country
vanishes for want of material. There remain no sub
jects out of which to constitute a militia, You may call
• the so-styled national forces the regular army, or give
them any other title, but they are the whole military
power of the country. The entire military force of the
United States is thus placed' absolutelycinder the com
mand and at the disposal of the President. He is the
judge of" the'exigencies of the service," and may assign
the force to such military duty as he may designate.
(See the thirty-fourth section of the act.)
Does the Constitution intend this? Did its framers
ever contemplate such a result?
What becomes of State military organization? What
becomes of State militia officers,•when they themselves
may be drafted as privates into the Federal forces?- - Of -
what portion. of the people of Pennsylvania, fit for mili
tary duty, does the Governor continue to ne the com
mander-in-chief after the inauguration of the draft? It
affects not the argument that only a portion of the people
Nat any one dint, called out by the draft. The whole
people are subject to the President's call. The twelfth,
section7authorizes him "to assign to each - district'the
number of men to be furnished by said district." This
call may entirely break up any and every State militia
Organization..
The Constitution then 'contemplates the regular army
of the United States, which is constantly under the com
mand of the President, as eomething distinct from, the
militia of the States, which are only occasionally and
emporarily under his command. The two were to co
exist—the other to give aid, when necessary, to the
other—but neither to absorb the other.
The act not only places millions of men at the disposal
of the President, but millions also of money paid In by
unwilling conscripts to purchase exemption from ser
vice.-
There is no express power in the Constitution given to
Congress to compel, by arrest, citizens to enter the army,
and such a grant is not necessary in order to carry out
the power to raise armies. On the other hand. the fourth
article of the amendments declares that " the right of
the people to be secured in their persons, homes. papara,
and effectleagaintit unreasonable •searches and seizures
shall not be violated." It is an unreasonable enlarge
ment of the power to make it subversive of personal
li
berty in the point of military service. ' '
The, act does not profess,in. the preamble, to place
itself upon any express or particular grant of power by
the Constitution. - It speaks therein of the duty of Go
vernment to suppress insurrection and rebellion, &c. ,
and, as a military force is therefore indiepensable, it de
clares that all persons ought willingly to contribiste to
raise and support one for these high purposes; and,
founded on this loyal duty of the. Government and this
mural duty of the c,tizen,the act proceeds to compel
people to do what they ought thus willingly to perform,
The act, therefore, makes the citizen perforce a soldier.
Is' this, in, conformity with the power to provide for
calling forth the militia? We think not. :
. The militia "of the States "is clearly meant. There
is no militia of the United States. The militia, when
called forth by the President, are to go into the service
of the United States, to be, there employed, and they are
to be commanded by the President. They are to be called
forth from the States in order to be employed, for special
purposes, in the service of the General. Government.
They are to go into this service as militia. They become
or have become such by organization, arming, and disci
pline, and enter the Service of the United States in this
organized condition • They are not individual citizens,
enrolled as such, but they are a body - of officers and pri
vates, and constitute a military .
Ohs pecuniary clause requires special notice. It Is the
thirteenth sect', D. It. is illegal; because unequal in. its
operation. It compels to .service in the army the man
unable to hay the exemption money, whose labor is
essential to the support of his family. it exonerates him
whose labor 'is not essential to the maintenance of his
family, as is•shown by hie ability to pay the three: hurt- _
dred dollars. •It is unjustly oppressive, therefore, on the
Poor. The money of the rich man goes to provide a
substitute for himself, not for she poor conscript.
The exemption money -is not a voluntary payment.
Yet it is neither a fine or a penalty. Ibis a tax. It pur
chases immunity from apaaticular draft—jut as the pay."
ment of a sum on importation of merchandise purchases
the right to introduce it into the country-for sale. Its
imposition, therefore, ought to .be regalated by cor
.responding clauses of the Constitittion. -
Congress has plenary power over every species of tax
able property except exports. But two .rules have been
prescribed for its guidance—the rule of uniformity, and
the rule of apportionment. Three kinds of taxes—dn
ties, imports, and excises, are to be laid by the lint
rule, and- capitation and other direct taxes by the se
cond. Indirect taxes may be imposed on expense or con
mention. Hylton vs. the 11. 5,. 3 Pal. :171,
The exemption money, under the conscription act, is a:
direct tax, It should be laid, therefore, according to the
••rule of apportionment. This rule is not followed is the
case in hand, nor is it so pretended., .
The money raised under the present draft, if all were
able to pay and -did' pay, would amount t 0.590,000. OW.
This immense sum is to be paid to the nominee of the Secretary of War, and to be, by the latter: expended in
. procuring substitutes. Of course, it is to be disbursed in
bounties and expanses.
The views put forth above as to the true construction.
of the powers of Congress to raise armies and to provide
for calling forth the militia, are, in' the general, clearly
supported by the authority-of" Judge Story, -In his com
mentaries on the Constitution, the'subject is fully,clis
fussed and the authorities cited and commented - on , In •
hook &I, ch 21.1174, and'follewing sections, the first of .
'those powers is treated. In • oh. 22 of the , same book,
section, 1194, &c., the power over the militia is the sub
ject of commentary. Those chapters: generally, are
referred to, in support of this argument. .
.The leafing calm of Martin vs. Mott, 12 Wheat., 15.
while it decides 'that the• President is the sole judge of
the exigency which may require the summoning of the
militia, and there is no appeal from his diecretion in the
premises—and further, that the President's requisition
may be directed to any , officer of the State well
as to :the Govereor—at the sam time recognizes dis
tinctly the existence "of the militia'as an organized body
in the States, and furnishes no warrant for the principle
asserted inthe conscription act.
A few words as to the remedy. • - -
The act of June le, 1836, gives to this court the Power
and juriediction of a Court of Chancery, .so far as relates
(among other things). to the prevention or restraint; of
the commission or continuance of acts contrary to law
and preuidisiat to the interests of the community or the
• rights in .
This is (as staled in the bills) emphatically such a
case, if the law be as we contend. The Constitution of
the United States is the supreme law of the land. .There
can be no pretence of interference ofjurisdiction between
the State and United. States courts. It is not'contended
th at there may not be an appeal from the decree of this
court, if adverse to the constitutionality of the act, to.
the Supreme Court of the United States, under the tWen
ty-fl.th section of the Federal judiciary act of September
24, 1789.Ableman vs. Booth,•21 Howard, 506:
The authority of .Ableman dc•Booth should-not be oar
eed beyond the point of that case. It was a writ of
,error to the-judgmeet of the Supreme Court of terticon
sin, The Supreme Court of the United States proceeds to
decide the constitutionality of the Act of Congress which
was then before it, and pronounces it constitutional. On
the basis 'of that axiom, it is held that within its consti
tutional power, though also within the territorial limits .
of a State, the 'Government of the United States is ea
pren e. It constitutes another severe ignty, and the
state. , sovereignty whether comparatively inferior or
not, cannot act out of its own jurleciction and within the
limits of another sovereignty. One sovereign and his
officers may rightfully disregard the process of another
The question, however, to be settled is the fact of inde
pendent sovereignty. Whether the United States is sove
reign or not, within the limits of - a State, in the exercise
of any particular power, depends upon whether they
have a constitutional right to exercise It. Who or what
tribunals are to decide this question?.ls it to be corn
'nutted exclusively to the tribunals of the United States?
There is nothing in the Constitution of the United States
'which says so. It would be unressonable,th a question
.between a•State , and the General Government, to hold
that the latter Was to decide all questions of interfering
sovereignty for herself, • -
It is a sufficient protection to her to give her Supreme
Court the - ultimate right of decision, upon appeal from
the highest State tribunal; and that right is conferred by
thejuniciary act, which is, in itself; a sufficient argu
ment that the State tribunals have the authority to act
1 3Pell a case in the first instance—otherwise, the greatest
encroachments might bemade upon the rights of a State,
without even the opportunity of a judicial protest from
her courts against them. •
• Again, it may be remarked that there Mno attempt, in
these cases, to disregard or interfere with the proctom of
a court of the United States. There is no canoe pending
in any court of the United' States as there was in Able
man vs. Booth, with which the process of this court
could interfere. The persons against whom this writ of
injunction le asked are individuals not professing to exe
cute any process of a Federal court, but simply claiming
to be executive officers, carrying out the provisions of an
ace of Congress, and therefore claiming to exert an au
thority under a statute of the United States.
Whether that statute is censtitutional or not, will de
termine the character of their acts under it. There is no.
interference with the process of a court of the Union in
deciding that the doings of these persons are uneonstltu
trona]: This will be exactly what the Judiciary act, in
one tof its provisions, contemplates on the part of a State
. . .
Nothing is said in this argument about the act of
March 3,1663; "relating to liabeas corpus and regu
lating judicial proceedings in certain cases," because.
lint, no - question has yet been'raised as to the right of,
removal of these causes to the United States Court; and,
secondly, if- the application were made the answer
Would be found in the fact that that act relates to ' gaits
or prosecutions, civil or criminal. for treapasses or
wrongs done or committed, or. any act omitted to be
done, by virtue or under color of any authority derived
from, or exercised by, or under the President of .the
United.• States, - or any act of Congress ," Such is not the
conditioh of the present case. .
- After Mr. argumentad concluded, Mr. Ingersoll fol
lowed. Hi did not add anything to that of
his colleague. which, as far as its theory was concerned,
was exhaustive.' At the conclusion of hie address the
court adjourned. An opinion may be expected at an
early day.

Thomas F. , Hamilton, aliairaamPton.wm arraigned at
the Central Station, yesterday, on several charges g r o w .

The complainant was hie hride - of ttweek, named Mar
A Quigley:who:lived' at 'Ne. - .S6Ei. Charlotte street. ( ' t
seems, from the interesting facts developed, that the pri
soner belongs.'or rather it Is alleged that he belongs, to
the 2d United Slates Artillery. A couple of weeks since.
the young lady .while passing through Franklin Square.
was attracted Int the gay ; military trappings of Thomas.
and seemed , to be` Somewhat fascinated with his ins
looks and fluent speech.); An hour or two passed An con

,were said that will

herissi where • there were - life arid gaiety. To this she
gave her, consent. at , : once.. The newly-married couple
took hoardina and lodging at the Ball's Bead Hotel, on
Market street, abort, Tenth, where no cloud interrupted
their sunshine of p.eapure and. happiness. 7.a. week Passed .
away. On Monday evening, the 7th inet, the newly
married couple took a trip to . West Philadelphia, where
he treated her to ice took_
and other good things, talked
of the fine weather; and descanted on the battle mines lot
which be bad been engaged. Pending the conversation,
he excused himself for a few moments, and left her in
the saloon. -Elie waited there for an hoar or two, bat he
did not return
. .
The greatest anxiety now seized upon her ;:-the moat
dreadfl . forebodinge racked her brain; she was fearful,
that' some . evil bad befallen him.. She , searched the.
neighborhood, made every inquiry, but nowhere could
she bear anything of her newly-made husband. Worse_
than all, at such a moment, she found herself two miles
west.of,tbe permanent bridge, at a hour, and with•
out even so small a sum as would mince to pay her fare
in the cars. Of coursers/ie. had , toi.walk a distance of
three miles before reaching the Ball's Head, Rare
ebe soon learned the 'state
-" of the case, facts
that 'appalled her very soul. Her husband,' after
absenting hlmrelf, as above :stated.. took passage
• in a car, and ' arrived in a short time at the
among
ot Here he helped hims el thuser valise. containing;
other valuable things,nm of .$l3O and some
Jewelry, with which he started out. He was met bytbe,
landlord. and had a conversation with him. The gay
deceiver," as the husband had proven hithself to be - by
this time, said that be was going out to make some pur
chases for Ms wife. This is the, last she _heard of him.'
On the next morning complaint - was. lodged with the
authorities, and on Tuesday night she met him by ac.•
cident in the street. She had him arrested. and yester
day afternoon appeared against him to substantiate the
charge. He was committed in default of $2,000 to answer
Fully Committed.
John "'riser. alleged to belong to the gang of Prairie
Hens., was fully committed to answer the charge of horse
stealing.
(Before Mr. Alderman White.)
.Larceny of,,Wwol. f
At 'an early hour yesterdaty morning Officer Shell ar
rested a man named George Elaych, who had in his pas
session a bale of wool, the Weight of which was about as
much as he could well stagger under. The Prisoner was
made to carry the bale to the Union• street station-house.
'The accused bad a hearing,, and, not giving a satisfac-
tory account as to the possession of the wo - G, was coin.'
mitied, to await further developments. Some time after
this two men, named Charles Bender and Charles Schot,
were arrested,at-the instance'of Mr. B. T. Mcalcurtrie,an
agent of a transportation line to,New York, who charged
them with heing implicated in the stealing of the wool,
These two men were employed on board the steam pro
peller Mars,iying to the Delaware' at Chestnut street
wharf. It seems that Messre t Benjamin, Bullock, & Co.,
extensive ,wool dealers. on Front Street, had - shipped
,thirty-six` bales of thh fleecy material on the prepaller.:
Ma ra,.bound for New York:, One of - the firm proceeded ,
to the Union-street - station-hones; and there identified
the property found in the possession of Flaych, as stated,
Mr. McMurtrie. the agent , entert tins the opinion that it
- would have been impossible for the bale of wool to have
been stolen' without the concurrence of the two men
whom he had arrested. The trio will bare a final hear
ing on Saturday afternoon at four o'clock.
[Reline Mr Alderman Welding.)
< A Mean Imposter.
• Catharine Rtish, residing' on' Monroe street, below
Fourth street, was arraigned yesterday on the charge of
obtaining money for the committee appointed to disburse
funds to the families of volunteers. The accused had re
ceived at the rate of $7 per month for sir months and
three weeks, during which time her husband has not
been in.the service. Ile did belong' to the 106th Penn
sylvania, but was'discharged. Hid wife, notwithstand
ing this, continued to call upon the committee and get
her weekly allowance of $1:75 per week, the greater part
of which, it is alleged: she spent for ram. Some of her
neighbors had frequently warned her that she was 'do
ing wrong. but sbeheeded them not. ',
Mayor Henry :having-heard, of 'such cases, deputed
otircers Adams' and Russell- to attend the committee on
disburtement day lo ,detect the impostors, if possible.
They achieved success ny the arrest of Catharine Rush.
She was committed to answer at court. Persons who
have any-evidence of similar impostors are respectfully
requested to lodge information with either of the officers
named, -It is the desire on the part of•the Committee on
Relief to see that all families entitled to the, fund should
receive a share. It is the duty of the citizens to shield
as much as possible the committee from imposition.
