WFDITE'SDAY MQgTjJNG APRIL 2 0 9 Atit 81011 An Allege de Deserter Turns out to be a Paroled Prisoner. John lienderson, of Co. Resetvei, was brought before Judge Mc- Candless.. yesterday morningon a writ of habeas corpus, based upon the &et that he Is rc minor, who enlisted without the con sent ofhis parents, which was fully shown. It was then proven that the young man had been taken prisoner by the rebels at Fredericksburg, paroled , and sent Ifor.ex cha age to Annapolis, subseqtiently leav ing the camp there and coming home without leave. The case presented Was a curiousone,. as the young man, - was; entitledAo hut discharge as a minor-; but the Coart in allowing the writ might cause his execution by the rebels, if taken a sec ond time, as they have a right to demand his return at any time previous to an ex change. As the point involved was an im portant:one, the case was continued until ten o'clock this morning, to enable the Judge to, investigate it. Meanwhile Hen derson remains in custody of the Provost Marshal, into whose care he was remanded. . . , he ) Phtladelphia Fire Depart ment. By the annual report of the Chief Eni neer of the Fire Department of Philadgel phia we learn that the department under his charge consists of ninety companies, which havb in use the followingapparatns: steam fire engines, 27; hand engines 36; hose carriages (four: wheels,)lo7; tenders ( two wheels,) 2; hook and ladder trucks, 11; number of feet of ladders, 1,643; num ber of hooks, 73; number of axes, 144; number of feet of hose, 85,700. Connect ed with the department there are 27 engi neers, 27 drivers, 57 horses and 26 am bulances. The total number of fires during the year 1862 was 3 54.-- The total number of members of the fire department, including the active, honor ary and contributing, was 12,006 at the time Of writing the report. There are also seven steamers and some hand engines, not included in the above, which receive no appropriation from the city. We pnb fi sh these figures , to correct erroneousim pressions about the Philadelphia Fire De partment, growing out of statements made when the proposed location of our steam• ere was under consideration. Decrease In 011 Production . Tke Oil City RegisPr giv ea as one rea son for the excited state of the oil market the falling off in production of some of the leading oil wells. It says-: "On- Monday last the Woodford Well, on the Tarr Farm commenced throwing water, mixed with a slight quantity of yellow oil. This well has been flowing, for some time past,about 1,000 barrels per day. The Janes Well, close by, which was flowing between 100 and 200 barrels per day, has ceased to flow altogether. The Woodford continues to flow about 1,000 barrels, but may be count ed as flowing altogether water;as thesmall quantity of oil mixed with it is worthless. This makes a decrease of about 1,300 bbls. in the daily production. We hear. of several other wells decreasing in amount of daily production, but we have no par tica lars." The Lottery Business. By the provisions of the amended reve nue law, every person engaged in any way whatever in the sale of lottery tickets, or the policy business, is required to pay to the Government the sum of one thousand dollars for a license. And every ticket or policy number, valued at one dollar, or the factional part of a dollar, must be stamped with a fifty cent stamp, and for every additional dollar or fractional parts of a dollar, an additional fifty cent stamp must be affixed. These stringent provis ions will probably put an end to the lottery business, as no dealer will pay a license fee of $l,OOO, for the reason that he can not make a living by selling tickets, on account of the heavy stamp duty. Railway Intelligence. Last week the lessees of the Elmira and Williamsport And Buffalo and New York Railways by the Northern Central and Pennsylvania Railroad Companies were signed. in. Philadelphia, and as the twu last [named companies are identical in in terest, this consolidation gives Philadel phia complete railway communications with Buffalo, Rochester and all the West ern part of New York State, and the ports on Lakes Ontario and Erie, Simultane ously with this, we observe that the rail ways-constituting the chain from Albany to Boston are about consolidating into one corporation, andel. the name of the Albany and Boston Railroad. This will be, with its extension, the Albany and Susquehanna road, the eastern arm of the Northern Central and Elmira road, as that to Buffalo will be the Western, and; so the chain of railways traversing the Susquehanna valley will become a great national highway. The New York Tribune understands ; that arrangements have been made to lay a third rail upon the track of the Pitts burgh, Fort Wayne & Chicago Railway, from thejunction of the Atlantic dr, Great Western Railway to Chicago, to make the gauge to correspond with that of the At lantic & Great Western and Erie roads— thus forming an unbroken line of the six foot gauge from New York to Chicago. This will give the Fort Wayne road a through route from Chicago to New York by the Erie road as well as by the Penn sylvania Central, and add largely to its already heavy business. Gone to Work. A number of the coal diggers on the upper Mcnorg_ahela (in fact a great ma jority of them) have gone to work at three cents per bushel and also several hundred in the Saw Mill Run and other pits nearer the city. They seem to have made a tacit agreement to go work at three cents, but to submit to no further reduction. This is quite enough and will enable diggers to make a good living with oniy a few hours labor daily. This master settled we hope to see -a corresponding reduction in the price of coal-to-consumers. The New Allegheny Market House. The Commissionerslave, at the request of many citizens of Allegheny, determined to light up with gas and throw open the new market house, on Saturday evening, for inspection. A gay time is exptcred at the inauguration, which will, however, be impromptu. It is expected that the butch era will occupy the new stalls an next Tuesday morning. Cotton From Memphis.

The aggregate principal and interest on our railroad bonds to Jan uary Ist, 1863, is $3,000,000- The sum on which $130,000 will pay interest a five per cent. is $2,600,000. To reconcile this di ff erence the bondholders have agreed to throw off thirteen and one-fourth per cent. of their entire claim, and take bonds for ,the balance, $2,600,000, at five per cent., said bonds to be clear of taxation under the laws of the State, as provided by the act of Assembly authorizing the com promise. The new bonds will be issued with coupons or registered, with interest payable in Philadelphia or at the County Treasury, at the option of the owner. Those for judgments, at twenty years from January let , 1863 ; for other indebtedness, fifty years. Scrip bearing similar interest will be redeemed when presented in sums of one hundred dollars, by a registered bond. The old bonds will be deposited with Trustees at the Bank of Pittsburgh, and. are not to be cancelled until after punctual payment of interest on the new bonds for five years. The terms of this settlement embrace all those cases in which judgment has been obtained against the county, and the result will be the im• mediate removal of the embargo on the Treasury, so that warrants will now be cashed on presentation.

Miss Emma Waller appears this evening in a less arduous but almost equally effec tive role as her Meg Merriles of last night, in the play of "London Assuranc'' in which she assumes the character of ' Lady Gay Spanker. We look forward with pleasure to this performance, as it will be 'far above the common order. If it is as well received as her really fearful persona tion of Meg Merriles last night we shall feel that her talent i is appreciated here— but we also hope to see a faller audience on this occasion than she has yet played to here, as she is tally entitled to the liberal support of a discriminating public. Rumsey's Minstrels. By the advertisement it will be observed that this famous minstrel troupe opens at Concert Ball on next Monday evening. A Syracuse paper thus speaks of a recent performance of the above Minstrels in that city: "Everything was new and sparkled with freshness, wit and vivacity. Billy Pierce is the essence of a genuine darkey, and when he and Ramsey fail to bring down the house in storms of applause there is no room left for improvement by anybody else—in fact, no one need try. Butler's inimitable basso is soft, melodious and purcely musical, captivating the ear with its rour.d and full melody. Jules Stratton sings air sweetly, and Carter's fine tenor in "Gentle Laughing May," is something worth listering to. Brockway's violin solo establishes him as master of that sen sitive instrument, and Rumsey's banjo imitations of church bells, as he swings his instrument from side to side, giving out the silvery tones of numerously ac cented bells, still lingers on the ear, re minding one of the Sabbath with its sweet, calm and holy surroundings." Town Lots at 011 City. Those who are at all familiar with the topography of the country in the vicinity of Oil City will agree with us that there is not in Western Pennsylvaniaa more bean• tiful site for a town than immediately op posite Oil City, where a new town is rap idly springing up, which is even now a moat desirable place of residence for those doing business in the oil region. The sit uation is a beautiful one, the ground riding gradually as it recedes from the river and affording a magnificent view of the whole surrounding country. Lots in the new town plot are advertised for sale in our columns and we advise oil operators generally to attend, on Tuesday next, and secure for themselves a spot on which to erect a home. A stock company ie now being formed for the erection of a suspen sion bridge ,to connect the" new town with Oil City, which will, it is epected, be completed by A.utumn. -Here is a/splendid opportunity, which should not be neglected. lbw= & Barges Sewing Machines. for in mill ' mantas:diving ur.posekare the beet in use.

The enemy were s?veral times driven f am their guns and one of their batterriea ' was spiked. Admiral Farragut's Secretary has ar rived at New Orleans with dispatches. Farragut was blockading the mouth of Red river. On the trip down from Vicksburg the fleet engaged the batteries at Grand Gulf. The Switzerland and Hartford were hit, but the only thing serious was the fatal wounding of one man aboard the latter.

The Intelli genoer thinks his allusion was to "snakes" while the gallant general distinctly use; the word "sneak." In these troublesome times we have various kinds of traitors; the snake, which, like the New York World, strikes boldly at the heart of the nation, and daily infuses its poison into the body politic, and the sneak, which hates the government as bitterly, and sym pathizes as earnestly with the enemy, and yet glosses over both with a show of pro priety and'dignity that would be amusing if it were not hurtful to the country's cause. We prefer the " snake" to the "sneak." While the administration was about i , they ought atleast to have secured an able pen to assail and criticise their opponents, but the clumsy hack who wrote the above is bringing unmeasured ridicule upon them. This style of vituperation was commo n before the days of free schools, but, ex cept rarely in a country newspaper, it has been long banished from the domains of modern journalism. Applying the term "sneaking" to the conduct of so dignified and unexceptionable a newspaper as the National Intelligencer is in the very vi lest taste.— World. The Consolidation Order. Remonstrances against the consolida lion of some regiments are coming in:— The colonels who claim to have been in every battle for a year past, think that it is hard for them to be summarily muster ed out of service because the ranks of their regiments have been thinned in the actions in which they have been equally prominent. Ere the end of this week the Gad step will be taken to enforce the conscription act. The importations of cotton into Eng land for the present year have amounted to 310,000 hales, against 200,000 for the corresponding period in 1802. The quan tity afloat on its way to that country was estimated at 400,000 bales at the latest dates. On the whole, the condition of the cotton manufacture is considered to have improved greatly during the year.— Fhe reports from India as to the growing crop are favorable. In Madras Presiden cy something over a million acres are un der cultivation for cotton—an increase of thirty per cent. upon the preceding year. The new crop has turned ont:Vrell, both as to quantity and quality. Washington Fashions. In Washington the clergy and negroes set the fashion in dress and in politics.-- I,l,rge white clerical bands are worn by the belles. frizzled hair is all the rage. I.ldies cut their lovely locks about four inches long, and curl them at night over the forehead and close to the head. These curls are all combed through in a mass nest mornirg, and stand out like a dar key's hair, precisely. I have seen, says a correspondent, many a dark skinned woman try as hard to get the kink out of her hair, as our ladies try to get it in. • Death or a Rebrl coua-ressman. Hon. W.

Checking a Bank Panic, Mr. O'Connel is said to have checked a panic on a bank of which he was director, by making the cashier roast the gold that was given in change for notes.
