THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH. PHILADELPHIA, SATURDAY, AUGUST. 4, 1866. CITY INTELLIGENCE, .Wr. Additional Local Items see FifUi JP05C Th Ahnual mLa Coterie CarHival" I rcmeiiade Concert Bal Masque and Cditens'' Zress Ball now looked) forward to with the noBt pleaturiiljle anticipations by tbe votaries of pleasant recreations and the lovers ot the mazy dance will come off on Thursday evening men at Congress Hall, Cape Inland. This enter tainment will doubtless exceed that of the past reasons; no expense or energy will be spared to promote tbe enjoyment ot the participants. The music will be ot the highest order, and that H will be excellently rendered, under the baton of Bireleld, Beck, and Hussler, we need hardly mention. Messrs. Abel A Ridley, the directors cl this prand trie, are too well known to be considered paisimonious, and we can say nought else but that their name in svoonymuus with everyth'ng perlatnlDg to ton, and their manage ment has heretofore been f econd to none others in the country. VVe anticipate an asemblnge such as hss never been witnessed at Cape May. Mr. J. F. Cake, tbe gentlemanly proprietor of Congress Hall, will exeit all bis available means to secure the welfare and enjoyment ot the guests upon the occasion. The subscription list Is now ready, and tickets for sale at the olDce at Congress Hall. Mr. Phillips, the celebrated costnmer from New York, will open his exten sive wardrobe at the store of the Misses O'Brien on Tnesday morning next. Mobe About tqe Whisky Raid. An examination of the molasses used In the manu facture of whisky disclosed the fact that, tn a maiority of instances, the worst article found in the market was purchased. Scrapings of sugar hogsheads were frequently taken, and the mashes," as set in the tubs, presented a mot disgusting appearance. Every imaginable tilth ws floating on the top of the fermenting ma8. It is true, that the objectionable portion of the molasses or sugar is removed alter the ferment ing process is completed, but the knowledge of this fact in no wise relieved the spectators of the nausea created by the glance at the vile stuff. In some cellars, where tbe process of dis tillation was carried on, the owners of the premises had small stills of about five and six gallons capacity. This was more than suflicient to supply the bar In the room above, and leave a quantity for sale to outside parties. All of the larger distillers rectified the spirits Of their own manulacture on the premises, and performed the like good office tor their neigh bors of less pretensions. In one establishment in the neighborhood of Twenty-third and South, eight stills were running in the stable, while the rectifying process was carried on in the most primitive fashion in the loit above. As may well be imagined, the appearance of the Commissioners among the distillers caused immense excitement. The proprietors of the various establishments had effectually secured themselves against the regular officers, but here were unexpected visitors. The announcement of the fact that the Special Government In spectors were in a particular building soon spread over the neighborhood, and brought together a large crowd, made up mostly of women and children, no wise complimentary in their language in discussing the obiects and movements of the officers. Tue women, espe cially, appeared to consider the business a legi timate one, and could not understand why the Government should desire to know the extent of the business. The proprietors were all required to appear before Assessor Sweeney, and there make a statement in regHrd to the amount of business; and they were allowed to explain, if they could, the discrepancies 011 their books, as shown bv the amount of molasses reoeived, and the quantity of whisky manufac tured. At first, these hearings were public, and one proprietor was examined in tbe presence of all the others who had been summoned. This has been stopped, in consequence of a little transac tion that occurred at one of these hearings. There had been some diueussion in regard to a particular entry in a book ot one of the pro prietors. The entry was correct in form, but another party standing by, knowing that his book was in the same condition (correct), but thinking from the dispute before the Assessor that the entry was wrong, stepped outside and into a neighboring house, and there altered the record. This was communicated to the Special Commissioner, and the party soon discovered that bp had not onlv made his book wrong, but had also subjected himself to a criminal prose cution, a warrant having been issued for hie arrest, An Oil Well in a Cellar. A shoe maker, residing in Front street, below Spruoe, having occasion to pump out his cellar, disco vered the presence of oil on the surface. On examination it'pioved to be genuine petroleum, and in considerable quantities. Tbe discovery of the oleaginous substance finally reached tbe ears of Fire Marshal Blackburn, and he set to work to trace up the source from whence it flowed. Prior to the passage of the law forbid ding the storage of petroleum in the city, there was a place in tbe vicinity ot the cordwainer's where large quantities was kept, and it seems that it has permeated the ground, and finally brought up in tbe cellar referred to. Since the law was passed a quantity of petroleum was stored at the place, and High Constable Clark intended to make a descent on it one morning, but the owners obtained knowledge of the fact, and hastily removed it in the night. During the hurry a number of barrels were stove, and this added to the general reservoir. The son of St Crispin continues to have his lamps supplied, and generously allows his neighbors to do like wise. Tbe oil ia not separated from, the water, hut placed in the lamp as dipped up, and It gives a brilliant light. Lieutenant Goluey, of the district, comes in for a share of the material, and the consequence is that his officers, who were crotchety from get ting wet at hres, have lubricated themselves, and become rejuvenated. The owner of this valuable well is looked upon with great conside ration, and has won frieuds enough to be elected aldermnn, should he come out for the position. There la a strong smell ot petroleum aooKt the premises, but medical men tell him it is highly conducive to health, and hence he takes his ease regardless ot cholera and coal-oil dealers. lie is truly a successful ground-door owner of an oil well. Attempt at Burglary. John Lee, aged about fifty vears, hailing trom Baltimore. was arraigned at the Central Station yesterday afternoon, charged with having attempted to ' feloniously enter the premises ot Leopold Stern berger, No. 127 North Third street, on Thursday evening. It was testified tbat the accused was caught in the act of trying to unlock tbe door leading to the store of Mr. Sternbergcr. When Lee was arrested, a bunch of skeleton keys was found on his person. Defendant had been in the store a few weeks ago, and asked to look at some shirts. At tbat time he said he be longed to Trenton, N. J., and was engaged in peddling. The alderman asked LeeVhere he had lived in Baltimore. "Baltimore street; I don't wish to give the number of my bouse," was the reply. The magistrate then inquired where he had been stopping m this city, Ue sai'J up town, over Market street bridge; did not know the house; could not tell what kind ot a bridge he crossed over in going to it; had been in the city three weeks, and didn't think that it had any thing to do with the charge prclerred against him, which ho pronounced false. Alderman Beiiler took a different view, and held hloi in 12500 bail to answer at court. Appropriation for the Old Pennsyl vania Bank Building. The bill appropriating $20,000 for fitting up the old Pennsylvania Bank building tor the use of the Custom House Ap Drainers, havine been signed bv the President. we may expect to see this unsightly ruin again assume a cheerful, business-like aspect. It has lor years been the receptacle for all sorts of tltn ana airt. A Falbe "IItje and Oby.w John Mc Oreevy, residing at No. 1630 Philip street, was found dead in bed yesterday morning. Stories f foul play were freely circulated in the neigh' borbood, but the Coroner Investigated the case, an4 ascertained that ueata resulted Irvm nut a rai twjees. A WIDE NT AT ABCH irTREKT WflARK. As the sUamboat t(un horrent was about sUrting on her regular trip, from Arch street wharf yes terday morning, at hall-p:vt six o'clock, a gen tleman named Robert Smith, re-Ming nonr Bor dentown, N. J., in lumping from tho steamboat ttcan to the Forrest dashed his head against an Iron brace, by which he was knocked some twer.ty feet backward, and his head cut in a most shocking manner. The cut was some six inches In length and bled profusely. There being no regular physician on the boat, tho Rev. William B. Wood, Pastor of Hancock Street Methodist Church, who happened to be on board, took the case In hand, and after trimming off some of the hair to get at the wouud, closed and botjnd it up with adhesive plaster and band ages, to it ho satisfaction of the patient and all on board. Riotous Conduct. Peter Erenberg was arrested vesterday by Officer Gaylord, of the Second District Police, on the charge of noting Rt the tire in Swanson street, near Mend. De fendant was acting with the Franklin Engine Company, and was attacked, as alleged, by n embers or runners of the Shi (Tier Steam En gine Company. The officer testified to a run ning tight, in which there were several mm engaged, and stated as a reason why no more of the rioters were arrested, thit there were only two of tbe police at the scene. Erenlx-rg had a terrible cut on the back ot the head, which he said was done with a born. He also said that Peter King, of the Franklin Engine Company, had been stabbed in the back. Bail was required for his appearance at Court. Damage to a IIouhk. Yesterday after noon, about half past one o'clock, the roof of a building on Reed street, between Sixth and Seventh, fell in.
