previous meeting were read and approved.
The Committee on Legislir.uro reported through
their Chairman, Rev. Dr. Junkln, who made
some very impressive remarks respecting the
prospect of maintaining the cause through the
acts of that body.
, ; In alludlne to some articles which had
appeared In a morning papT oi this city, he said
V that treat ignorance nau boon shown by the
writer ol the articles In qucftion. Base attacks
' bad been made on pre at and pood men, and tn
' quotations, much injustice had been done to the
authors trom which he had quoted.
Kev. J. Wheaton Smith, D. D., offered the fol
lowing resolution: .
Krsolved, lhat whilo no propor effort should be
emitted for the Pieventlon ot the contemplated
violation of the Sabbath, our attention should be
stwiallr direoied to existing and groator violations
oi the aay.
He advocated the resolution in a few forcible
remarks, and stated that there oupht to be a
decided action among Christians and all moral
ruen in reference to the rum shops of this city,
and stafo-d that if these should bo closed we need
not fear tha: Sunday papers or car running on
the Sabbath would meet with encoiuauenient.
Ttcinarks were also made by ilev. Dr. Johnson,
Mr. Bteinmctz, and bthcrs, favoring the resolu
tion, which whs passed iinauinioiiBly.
A communication was received from Jay
Cooke, Esq., expressing his hearty sympathy
with the movement, and regretting that, owing
to his repldenco being out ot town, he would ba
obliged to decline serving as President. The re
signation was accepted.

. On motion, the Secretary and President of the

Mannecrs toeether at such time as desired, Kev.
Dr. Brainerd favored tho agit avion of tho ques
tion of closing taverns on Sunday. Hi was per
suaded that it hal already done good. Said he,
"Let us persevere, and wc will have success." The.
meeting was then closed wl'.n prayer by Rev.
Dr. Smith.
The Education of Methodist Minis
ters. Last evening, at the Union M. K. fjhurca,
a meeting was held in regard to one of the
special objects by which it is proposed to com
memorate the centenary anniversary of the
establishment of the Methodist Church in this
country Denominational Education. It will be
remembered that it was proposed to raise two
millions of dollars as a permanent fund to edu
cute ministers ot the M. E. Church. To further
this purpose was the design of this meeting.
Bishop Ames addressed the meeting at length,
adverting to the evident fact that the prosperity
and life of a nation depend upon the diffusion
ol knowledge and intelligence among the people;
and adverted to the hitr.v of the past Republics
ot Greece and Borne, tracing the causes of their
downfall in the lack ot, virtue and education
among the masses.
The Centenary Anniversary particularly com
mends this great duty of eel ucatine the future
preachers to the hearts and sympathies of all
the Church to fulfill, the declaration that to
whom much was given much ehall be required.
Tho colleges of the Church are great balance
wheels, that keep up and equalize the circulation
from age to age. The people scarcely know yet
this conservatism, but in the future they shall
possess its power.
Bishop Simpson referred to the great numbers
of the Church, it having about nine hundred and
thirty thousand communicants within it. Thus,
(Jod'having blessed them with such vast num
bers, hus devolved upon them a more earnest
and greater task than other denominations.
These others had older and better endowed theo
logical seminaries. This was not true in the
West, wherein, in some Stu.t;s, they had more
colleges and more students, but in th East the
reverse was the case, trom the other Protestant
denominations having been earlier on the
ground and preoccupied the tield. Thus arises
tho necessity ot greater exertions to enlarge the
seminaries, to cultivate and gather in the fruits
of the harvest. lie honored other churches for
their great advancement: ho bade them Cod
speed therein; but the Methodist Church must
awake to the necessity of this action, or it will
.lose most of the young persons from its own com
munion, they being attracted otherwise by the
power of educational association. For these as
sociations are very strong, and the church that
controls thoir education will obtain the greatest
numbers. .
Tne Insane at the Almshouse. On
January 1, 106, there were in the institution
r;2 paticntd, 202 men and 300 women, 35. in all,
giving a total of 921 who were under treatment
uring the year. The daily uverage of patients
was l'JO men, 370 women: 674 in all. Few per
sons, perhaps, have any idea that there are so
many insane people in Philadelphia, yet this
is only one of the several institutions of the kind.
During the year there were 353 patients dis
charged as louows:

December 31, 18(i5, there remained in the in
stitution 109 men, 309 women, 608 in all; show
ing an increase lor the year of only six, there
being an actual diminution ot three men, and an
k Increase of nine women.
In his report Dr. Butler urges that the build
ing now occupied by the insane poor of Phila
delphia be devoted to the purposes of a Home
of Correction, and that new 'mildings, better
adapted to ttio curative treatment of the pa
tients, be erected on a farm farther removed
than the p'esent location liom the city. He
thinks that there are meu enough among tho
patients to work a farm of lut v acres, and that
with proper facilities a lartre part of the labor of
the Institution of all kind-, cmu be perlormed by
tho patients, both male and female.
Admikisteijinq Raw-uide. Testerday
on Chcsnut street, above Eighth, a fashiona
bly dressed young woman wes seen to approach
a tall man wearing a military cap, and as soon
as tbo got within strikiug distance to apply a
cowhide to his shoulders. The attack took luni
by surprise, and ho did no more for a few
moments tlmn try and ward off the blows. Re
covering himself, he seized the cowhide and
attempted to wrest it from her grasp. This he
was not able to do, and lindi.ig a lurge crowd
Catherine, he took refnge in a neighboring
house. Upon his leaving his assailant walked
oil'. Persons stated that ho was u General in the
volunteer service, and the ro:e on for the chas
tisement was tho circulation ol reports prejudi
cial to the character of the a'iiluut.
IIeaeing of Pr.oFESSioNALS. Yesterday
afternoon the batch of professional tulevos
arrested upon the charge ot being implicated in
tho robberv of J. T. Taylor, of Ohio, ot his
pocket book.coutaiuing $500, hud a hearing at the
Central Station, nr. layior was uuatite to recog
nize anv of the prisoners us havitg been pre
rent on the platform of the cur at the time he
was robbed. Thev were accordingly dischareed.
Chief Detective Franklin stui .'J that hereafter
when thefts were committed he intended to
visit all dens where protessuuuil thieves were in
the habit of congregating, and arrest everyone
found there, and warned them not to frequent
fcuch haunts.
MAN Drowned. About half-post eleven
o'clock lost nicrht an unknown man fell over
board at Green street wharf, and was drowned.
in spite ot the efforts of about a dozen police
oiuccrt to eave htm.
A IIardsomb Fresknt, A centluman
connected with the Engineer';! Department of
the Philadelphia Navy Yard for softie three
years punt, and having just resigned, was the re
cipient of a handsome testimonial tn the shape
of a signet ring, irom a number of his lrirnds.
with whom he had been officially connected, as
a token ot their esteem and Iriendship. Our
readers are indebted to this gentleman tor seve
ral humorous productions eniai.atlng from his
pen, under the nom de plume of "Pookuis," and
will Join with us in wishing him God speed in his
new sphere. "
Anxious to Testify. Mr. A. C. Schncll,
of Warren. Pa., writes to Alderman Hurlev, ol
this city, that he is a victim of tho bogus Geue
ral McCook, and desires information when tho
trial ot the rascal will take place, that he may
appear as a witness. The letter does not Rtate
the amount he has been swindled out of. I
MATTERS OVER THE RIVER.
Prospective Improvements. The com
ing spring will open with brilliant prospecs lor
Camden. , There are a namber of improvements
projected, including several business structure-',
and heavy contracts tre already made for the
erection of dwellings in various parts ot the
city and suburbs. A company ol capitalists has
been loruaed with the view of supplying ihe
increasing demand for houses. It is said they
will put up about one hundred this year, and
will add from year to year to meet the require
ments of our growing city. Mr. Garrison will
alto build a row of hou-.es on his grounds in
North Ward; and several of our citizens, in each
of the Wards, will add to the number. Tn.s spirit
of enterprise will extend over tho citv line, and
inluFe new life into Knighnton; and on the east
s:dc of Brace road, over the city line, James
llcnrj, Esq., ha just completed a splondid resi
dence near the Newton school house, In which
vicinity several houses were built lasd, year, atid
moie are contracted lor. Altogether, the build
ing prospects Of Camden are very encouraging
for the coming year.
Enlarging the City Bounds. The pro
priety of enlarging ,the city bounds, by embrac
ing all the suburbs within the corporate limits
ol Cnmden, 1s freely discussed and waiinly advo
cated by a number ot our citizens. Several pro
pontons in regard to the line have b;:en ma le,
and there seems to be more diversity of opinion
upon this question than upon the necessity of'
cousolidstion. One line advocated is to take in
all west of the Mount Ephniim load, making a
continuous line to John M. Kaisrhn's propertv,
even with the "Line Ditch." and continue to the
bridge over the Bame. Others desire to strife a
straight line trom Cooper's Creek Bridge south,
and continue south until all of Centretulle and
Stockton is embraced in the city limits. W'c
believe our rural neighbors are by no means
dcBirous ot the association.
Needs Repairing. The. Camden County
Court House is in a bad condition in niauy re
spects, and needs immediate repairing. One of
these delects is the bad arrangement of the Hues,
which admit the loul odors trom tho sinks and
prison cells into the Court Room, rilling the
apartment with noxious vapors, which interfere
materially with the transaction of business.
These delects should be at once remedied, lor
they make it unhealthy lor the .judges, and all
who have business to transact during the ses
sions of court.
i
Chicken Stealing. There scorns to be
a gang of thieves prowling about the suburbs of
ol Camden, whose special aims and business
seem to be in stealing chickens, geese, turkeys,
etc. A short time t ime feiuce one man lost about
wentv-flve turkeys, which he mver recovered.
Very little mercy in shown to these depredators
when caught ami convicted, un oiouaay one
ol them took a voyage to Trenton, under the
care and guidance ol the Sheriff, where he has
been assigned to special duty for a year in tho
State penitentiary.
