A large number of property owners were present to protest against the further construction of the load. Absolution was adopted referring the subject to a committee of flye, including the ohief engineer, to confer with the engineer nf the connecting road and ascertain if a more pracncal route can be obtained. Messrs. Miller, Smedley, Keely, and Haines were appointed the committee. A communication was received from Mr. J. Edgar Thompson, of the Pennsylvania Railroad, stating that the connecting railroad was a regularly orga nized corporation under the laws of Pennsylvania, A communication was received from the City So licitor, stating that the tenth section of the act of April, 1866, provides “that hereafter no railroad, whose road shall terminate within the city, shall have the right to construct their road without first submitting the plans and surveys thereof to the Board of Surveys, and all charters authorizing the construction of any railroad within said city shall be taken to be subject to the above restriction.” The Solicitor is of opinion that, as this has never been repealed, the section applies.as if it were textu ally In the charter. The committee’s report may determine a new route altogether. - ■ , Salaries op the School Teachers.— The reoent appropriation made by Councils to the Board of School Control for the purpose of inoreas -ing the salaries of the school teachers from July Ist haß created comiderable indignation among the as* ' Blatant teachers in the Primary Sohools. The latter have received an advance of but 30 per cent., while .thefemale principals of the Grammar Sohools got 50 per cent. They think this adjustment fcy the Board a very unsatisfactory one, as those receiv ing the lo west-amounts should have been advanced in a higher ratio than the principals whose salary Is sufficiently large enough to sustain them, while the assistants have not been increased in propor tion to the rise of the necessaries of life. The teachers held a meeting touring the past week and one at the Ringgold School Mouse, last orcer p devise means roiiereby thsy mum teufck the feeder chords in the hearts or the Board of Softool Controllers ana induce them to advance their salaries, to a greater extent. The Arproachtng Holidays.—The con flict now. waging between the Government and Se cession seems to’have .but little or no effect upon business relations in .this city, judging from the large amount of.trade: carried on at the present time. Everywhere the stores are well stooked with goods of all descriptions, and individuals of both aexea seem to vie with each other in purchasing the most expensive articles to be found. As the holidays are approaching, the old folks have begun to secure Christmas presents for their,youngsters, and never before' have we seen such a v Variety of notions, whioh are suitable as giftß for all sorts and sizes, as are now visible in the store windows. The proprie tors of such places will no doubt reap a rloh harvest during this month. „ Defects to be Remedied.—The publi cation of the names of the drafted men, exempted from duty for oause, has occasioned numerous com plaints of unfair dealing. The reasons assigned for the exemptions being also stated, the friends of the “exempts” are enabled to judge of the justice of_ the claims presented. Numerous angry comments, have likewise been made that many names were omitted from the enrolled lists. Provost Marshal Irihman has had posters printed containing the names of all. the enrolled, so that any name not put down or improperly enrolled may be properly attend ed to. Any person enrolled, who deems himself ex empt from the operation of the draft, is required to give notice of his disability before the 20th inst. The City Treasury.—The receipts of the City Treasury during the peat week amounted to $100,( 35.86, and the payments to $33,355.76. Of. the latter, $26,000 were paid In special funds. The various Items of receipts were as follows: Taxes of 1863 .....$37,400 48 Board of Health... ...592 38 Highways. 293.00 Prisons. .; .4,000 oo ■Wharves and Handings .4,165 oo Pines and Penalties ......: .385.00 Proceeds of Loans. : 53,200.00 Total $100,035.86 Crystal] zed Milk.—The milkmen, as ■well as other Industrious people, whose business re quires attention early in the morning, experienced very cold weather yesterday. So cold, Indeed, that the milk served to customers before nine o’olock was partly oiystalized, or in other words, frozen. The ice, upon examination, was found to be perfectly dear, thus testing the purity of the milk. There was nothing opaque about it. It was as dear as though made of spring water. Hospital Visits.—Several of the^army ~hoipitali In tbiS'Citywere visited on Sunday l&stby naiu Dix, the philanthropist, who was cordially re* . ceived and conducted through the different rooms, v which she seemed highly gratified with. A visit was also paid during the past week to all the hos > pltals by the Board of Inspection recently appointed by the Government, of one surgeon . and two other officers. Their object was to ascer tain wfc*t patients were in a fit condition to be re turned to active service. - Arrival from Charleston.—The brig Jofcn Welsh, Jr., Capt. Ftfleid, arrived at this port yesterday morning. She left Port Royal on the Ist, and Charleston oar on the 2d. The captain states that our batteries had ceased firing when he passed the bar, but a heavy smoke was to be seen over the city, which he supposed was caused by the burning of.lt. The brig Titiana and schooner Prank Ed wards, from Philadelphia, were off Port Hoval when the John Welsh, Jr. left Lost Child.—a litfle girl, about 11 years old, dressed in a black hat, drab -cloak, and black skirt with a plaid body, was found In the cars on the Germantown railroad, on Friday last, and taken to the police station at Germantown. She is now residing, temporarlly.at the house of Mr. H»r mer, on Green street,'below School, Germantown. Her relations or friends had not inquired for her up to yesterday. f . . :■ - Recruiting.—The ' number of soldiers mustered into the United States service for the week ending December sth was fifty-four, which shows an .inorease o[ four over the previous week. The above , statement does not predict the obtaining of a suffi cient number of men-to prevent a draft neat month. ■They were enlisted as follows: In the old regiments, 12; new, 1, and colored, 41, making a total of 54, ■ A Great Advantage.—The residents of Frsnkford have long since felt the want of a town olock. Their desire has at last been granted, as a large one, which strikes the hours, was put up a few days ago In the cupola of the police station-house 4here. • * ; Coal Oil;—The exports of this article lst, from this port, amounted to 4,399,917 gallons, at an average value of $1,195 977. The largest purchaser was England; and to her porta were sent daring the year 2,093,874 gaUons. . Death op A SOLpiEß.—The following death was reported-yesterday at the medicaldireoU toris office from the mower Hospital: Chas. OwehirV' 1 00. 0,86 th New York Volunteers. ** Payment of City Loans.—The city loans maturing on the Ist of January, 180*$. are now being paid by the City Treasurer. the police. / . CBefore Mr. V. s. Commissioner Smith. j Post-Office Letter-Carrier In Trouble* *»5? r S u f*t:? OUI1 Sj a letter-carrier, attached to the Philadelphia post office, was arraigned by Detective Taggart yesterday on the charge of robbing letters. time past business letters failed to reach *£? arrangements were privately i he> r ®*«on. Suspicion finally fell upon the defendant, and he was “ Dioed” hv T*irir»rt oS S ffi a .y^?o*flwSl the ouiler into a public house, where he watched hi. mevements. There he examined twelvelrttorsAnd then threw them into a stove. iThe arrest was and this fact was kept a profound seer". ‘ySSsS day morning Deteotive G. Smith, acting in coninno- Kon with Mr. Taggart, proceeded to the residence of Young, on Fourth street, near Brown, where he hoovered a large-number of letters, that had never been dffiivered to the persons to whom they were «»«!«■ v The,e were Produced. It is not known S? 0 f money these documents contained. The bearing, to take plaoe on -Wednesday, at which time it is.probable more developments will be made. Parties who wrote the letters, or at least some of them! will probably hare to be advised of the circumstances la order to make the chain of evidence complete In all its links; The defendant was committed in default of $0,03 ball, to await a further hearing* lometer. David Wilmer, a oolored man, atandlng about ilx leet flve lnohea in height, wa« arraigned before tbe polioe magistrate of the Fifth ward, on the charge of oarrying a concealed deadly weapon and other mi*, demeanor. It eeems, from the evidence, that on Saturday night the defendant entered the house of Michael Kelly, near Sixth and Lombard atreets, and behaved in a moat outrageous manner} driving everybody out of the house. He picked the hot lid from a stove anddaahed.it at a woman. She fled to the street. The desperado then drew out a loaded revolver, al ready capped, and drove Mr. Kelly, his wife and children, into the street 5 they gave the alarm, in re sponse to which Officer Rice soon appeared. . The fellow was oaptured after a great deal of trouble. He was committed in default of $1,200, to answer both charges. Annie Bell was committed to answer the charge of stealing some clothing, the'property of Wm. Col* 2om, who hoarded in the same house, near Seventh and Lombard. These things were pawned 1 for a trifle, and the money spent for rum. A pretty well-drested young man stepped into the Central Station, yesterday afternoon, to enter a complaint. He appeared to be perfectly sane, but it was not long before we came to the conclusion that we stood in the presente of a man who was laboring under an attack of mania-a-potu. Sir-tald heTi am very much annoyed by the Readlngßailroad Company; they have caused to be laid a double track from the cellar of my house to the roof; one track goes up one 1 ide of my bed, and the other goes down on the other side. They run the cars all night} just as X get into a doze alooomoHve whizzes by, blowing the steam whistle and ringing the bell} last night,.sir, one of the locomotives flew off the track, leaped aoross my bed to the other track, and the engineer grinned at me like a devil. The pas* tengers all looked like devils, some with horns, and some with no horns at all; each devil carried a canary bird that seemed to sing like a flteam-whistle. Here the informant paused. “"Well, sir, your complaint is just: .we have already taken measures to have the railroad traoks removed from your house so that you can sleep without being disturbed,” was our reply.' The man seemed to be grateful that such a course had been taken, and as he arose to depart, he said, H Sir. I wish you would remove that worm from my shoulder; only a little while ago I pulled one out of my forehead, and threw it on the pavement; juat as I was about to put my foot upon it, nearly a hun dred ran up my leg, and I suppose this is one of them.” We removed the imaginary worm; whereupon he exclaimed, ” why, there are more or them.” l< Walt a moment,” (said we;) a brush was obtained and properly used. The man, evidently a gentleman, returned his thanks for our kindness, and suddenly left the office. He was a stranger. What boeame of him we know not, but we thought the whole scene was a first- class’ temperance leoture. - Thomas Lowrie and Michael Hart wall were ar* rafgned, yesterday morning, on the charge of pocket picking. It is alleged that on Saturday nignt one of the accused met tbe complainant in the vloinity of the Academy of Music, and they proceeded to" a restaurant not far distant, where they procured something to eat. Lowrie, it is alleged, asked his stranger companion for fifty cents, which was com plied with. The sum of $l2O was removed from the pocket book by somebody, and it found its way into tbe possession of Hartwall. Fifteen dollars of the stolen money were recovered. The defendants were committed in default of ssoo bpil each to answer* hrt.— The following 1«, for the week ending ived at the Medical Si- Luke Keegan, a superintendent of the Spruce and Pine-street Railroad Company, has been held to bail to answer the charge of committing an assault and battery upon Mr. Sayers, one of the conductors on said road. Th*e difficulty took place on Saturday at the depot, hear Twenty-third and South streets, pending the demand for an increase of wages. Two well-known young men who have served out several terms for thieving, were arraigned, last eve ning, at Station, on the charge of pick ing the pocket of a lady stopping at the merchants’ Hotel. The prisoners are known as Ezekial Cor son, alias Pea-nuts, and Courtney, alias Frenchy. The last named was liberated from prison on Saturday. -It seems that Detectives Callanan and Carlin were walking down Chestnut street, and they observed the two thieves enter Mr, Harding’s photographic album establishment, on Chestnut street, near Fourth. Presently they came out, and Mr. Callanan “ went through ” them, but found nothing. The parties were, of oourse, permitted to go. Mr. Callanan entered the store, and asked if anything was missing, that two no torious thieves had been In there. A lady customer suddenly found that her pocket-book was gone. De tecive Callanan took-her'addresg, and at once hasten ed to the Central Station and despatched Henderson and Carlin to search through the 11 cribs.” The two in dividuals whom they were in quest of were found. Courtney ran and was pursued by Henderson. The latter gained fast on him, when the prisoner turned for battle. The two men thUB apeedily engaged in a game of fisticuffs, much to the apparent amuse ment of a large crowd of persons who speedily gregated. The result of this contest was that Courtney was pretty well out about the faoe/and Mr. Henderson had a slx-dollar hat, he won on the recent election, entirely smashed. Mr. Carlin had less trouble with his prisoner. At the hearing, last evening, all the money Btolen from the lady was recovered except about five dollars. The prisoners were committed in default of $1,600 ball each to take their trial at the present term of the court. United States District Court—Judge Cad- Walader.
