CITY INTELLIGENCE.
(fob additional local itkms sek tiiibd paor.
The New Coikxksikk Chukch. During a
very heavy gale In January, this structure re
ceived considerable damage. The walls, though
unusually heavy, being green, and the roof but
partly on, and without lateral braces, In this
condition they wero driven out of line in
the centre about six inches, making two breaks
of two or three feet over one window, but only
passing through the pressed brick, and not ex
tending through the wall. Force has been ap
plied, and they were easily and without diili
culty brought back and secured. The "Build
ing" Committee, in order to remove all fear,
have, after great expense in restoring the struc
ture to its former strength, obtained the opi
nions of many, and the best Judges on those
matters in this city, to the effect that the church
Is one of the roost secure and substantial struc
tures in the city. Everything that architec
tural skill and money could do has been done.
Indeed, there seems hardly room for another
brace, so that half of both the sides might be
knocked out without the least danger of the
roof falling. It has stood two very severe storms
since its damage. The foundation is on the
rock: it is built with great care, and we see no
possibility of the 1 ast danger. We are happy
to learn that it is fast approaching completion,
and the congregation expect to move into the
"lecture-room" in a few weeks, with the most
encouraging hopes of success. The doors are
open the greater part of every day, and we
would suggest that those interested step in and
see for themselves.
Official Visitation. On Saturday evening
an official visitation was made to Enterprise
Dodge, No. 201, 1. O. of (). F., by M. W. Grand
Master George Fling, of the Grand Lodge of
Pennsylvania, and I'ast Grand John G. Moxey,
Chairman of the Committee of Superintend
ence of the Grand Ijodge. During the evening
Grand Master Fling was pleased to preside, and
remained during the ceremony or initiation,
after which he complimented Enterprise Lodge
for its efficiency and general prosperity, and
spoke of the startling progress of the order lu
this State. He stated that he bad just insti
tuted Hamilton Lodge, No. 50H, located at West
Philadelphia, and that there were now in this
State over sixty thousand Odd Fellows in good
standing. The address of Grand Master Fling
was listened to with great attention. He was
followed by Past Grands Moxey, Muir, Karnes,
York, Noble Grand A. N. Clossin, Vice Grand
Householder, and others, in brief speeches; and
the occasion was thus rendered peculiarly inte
resting to the lare number of young members
of the Order present.
A Drukkex Bellioerent. Edward Haffy
a man who is said to love his beer, and who Is
a large consumer of foreign and domestic
spirits, was arrested in Beach street, above
Coates, yesterday morning, on a charge of
assault and battery. It appears that llaffy
went to a whisky mill in that neighborhood,
and obtaining entrance, demanded a supply o '
the ardent. The proprietor refused to satisfy
his demands, and Haffy thereupon undertook
to take satisfaction out of him. Intheoourse
of the latter operation, the saloon-keeper got
his head pounded, and received contusions in
various parts of his body. Haffy had a hear
ing before Alderman Toland, the result of which
, was that he was committed in default of $800
bail to answer.
Highway Robbery. Joshua Mooiwy and
Alfred Alexander, two colored members of the
fraternity of thieves, were arrested by Officer
Young, of the Fifth Police District, at Eighth
and Lombard streets, on a charge of highway
robbery. J t appears that hist evening they met
another colored man at Eighth and Emellne
streets, and robbed him of his pocket-book,
containing 845. One of them cut out the side
-pocket in which the money was, while the
other held him. The victim was a deaf and
dumb man, and was employed as a brakesman
on one of our railroads. When robbed he was
going to his work. Mooney ami Alexander had
a hearing before Aldermnn Fitch, wno held
them in $500 ball each to answer.
A Forcible Entrance. About half-past 1
o'clockfon Saturday morning, a young German
named William lioehm resolvod to make an
earlv call upon nlady in seiuert street, above
Fifteenth. He proceeded to her house, and,
ten tlv tapping upon her front door, asked for
admittance. She was alarrnod at suon an early

Ihe morning of February fi, between 6 and 0
o'clock A. M., in an afTray between John Elliott
and Richard Brown, employed as firemen on
board the tug America, the lat ter was stabbed
by the former in tho side, and his recovery Is
doubted by the medical gentlemen In attend
ance. The case wbr heard before United States
Commissioner Smith on Inst, Saturday after
noon at 3 o'clock, when the following facts were
given in evidence:
Edward it. Messick sworn I am engineer of
the tug America; on the fith of February, about
hnlf-past6o'clork, while we were iust instdo
the Delaware Breakwater, and while I was
lying In mv birth, some one hnlloed down the
liatch that the firemen wero Unhung; I went
Into the fire-room, and saw Klchard Brown on
top of John Elliott, both employed on the ves
sel; I pushed them, when Brown said that
Elliott hadaknlie and would stab him; as I
was turning to go out of the room, and when
Ihe two parties were standing nbont six
feet apart, Elliott started towards Hrown,
and then I Jumped ui between them
and caught Elliot's arm; I did not then sec tho
knife; but in the struggle to et out of ray grasp,
Elliot got near Brown and struck him a "hack
handed lick;" after that I saw blood streaming
from the breastof Brown: the latter then started
for a hoe, which he took and struck Elliot;
but I parted them ond told them to no to work;
Brown went up on the boiler-deck and laid
down, and Elliot went, to work; after a short
period I stepped up to Elliot and nsked for tho
knife with which lie struck Brown, and he gave
it to mo without any reluctance; It was au old
fashioned long-bladed clasp-knife. Brown was
taken to his home In Chester, and Elliot was
arrested.
This was the only evidence taken, and Elliot
was committed in default of 810U0 bail, to await
the death or recovery of Brown. Much sym
pathy is felt for Elliot, who is said to be one
of the most peaceable aud quiet men on the ves
sel. In the uflray be had his little linger nearly
bitten oil'.

On a Double Charge. Last Saturday after
noon, Officer Bockeu, of tho Ninth District, ar
rested a young man named Frank Laughhn at
Sixteenth and Callowhill streets, for beln
drunk and disorderly. On taking him to Mfe
Station Honse, the attention of the officer was
called to an unusually flue pair of boots for a
man ol bis description to wear, and on making
further Investigation It was found that the
Vioots had been stolen from a shoe store on Vino
street, ;abovo Fifteenth, about a week or two
previous. At that time the prisoner, with two
others, had gone to the store in question, and
had asked to see some finecalfskln boots, under
the pretense that they wished to purchase.
While the proprietor was engaged in talking to
anothej customer, the three walked out of the
store with the boots in their possession. They
succeeded In making their escape at tho time.
Laughlin had a hearing before Alderman
Hutchinson, and was held in $1500 ball to an
swer. Petty Police Matters. John Logan, whilst
laboring under an attack of whisky, became
quite noisy in the neighborhood of Thompson
and Palethorp streets. An officer attempted to
take John into custody, when the latter turned
on the officer, knocked him down, kicked him,
and tore his beautiful blue coat. The prisoner
was, however, socured, and had a hearing be
fore Alderman Shoemaker, who held him in
$1500 ball to answer for being drunk and dis

The inevitable John Smith was arrested on
Saturday night, near the Seventh District

about three or four dollars, threw the empty
nocket-book into a collee stand, and walked on.

Liatcat and Bloat Important Discovert
lu tbe Treatment of Chronic.
Disease!.
DR. S. W. BECKWITH S
ELECTRICAL INSTITUTE,
No. 1320 WALNUT ST.
During oar investigations in the treatment of dis
ease in its various forms by tbe agency of electricity.,
we have obtained very many valuable and startling
facts, which, aoded to the previous though limited
inlormation, possosned by other and less fortunate
operators, place u beyond all provieus knowledge
of tbis niysteribus agent. Luring the course of oar
practice we have treated and cured, through the
knowledge thus gained, many thousands, and by
means of our new discoveries have established our
selves as the most successful Medical Electricians ia
this country or Europe.
Electrical investigation bas proved that tbe bumaa
body acts on the principle of the galranio battery.
The brain, mucoua and serous membrane., the skin,
tissue., and fluids constitute the negative and post,
tive lorces, and eVry action, whether mental or
physical, is the result of thebe antagonistic toroes.
Diaestion, respiration, circulation, secretion, and
excretion are due solely to electrical influence.
There is a polar action established throughout the
nervous system which connects with every part of
the body, establishing aud preserving a proper
balance of the electrlcalelement which constitute
health, and a disturbance of whioh causes disease.
There are strictly but two conditions of disease
one of inflammation, or positive; the other weak,
debilitated, negative and as electricity contains
these two conditions in the action of the positive
and negative currents, all we have to do is to
neutralize the disease and restore proper, healtar
action.
Among the chronio diseases in whioh electricity
has been, and la daily being by our agency, of the
greatest utility, a cure being rapidly effected after
the failure of all other means, are:
1. Kpilepgy, Chorea, or St. Vitus' Dance, Paraly.
tus(Uemplegia), Aeurulgia, Hysteria, Nervousness.
Palpitation of the Heart, Lookjaw, etc.
2. Sore Throat, Dyspepsia, Diarrhoea, Dysentery.
Obstinate Constipation, Hiemorrhoides, or fifes.
Villous, Flatulent, and Painter's Colic, and all atleo
tions of the Liver and Spleen.
8. Catarrh, Cough, Influenza, Asthma (whon not
caused by organic disease of the heart), Bronchitis,
Pleurisy, rieurodnl, or Khoumatismot the Chest,
Consumption in the early stages.
4. Oravel, Diabetes, and Kidney Complaints,
Impotence, and Seminal Weakness. TUe latter
complaints never fail to yield rapidly to this treat'
mtnt.
6. Rheumatism, Gout, Lumbago, Stiff Keck,
Spinal Curvature, Hip Disea.es, Cancers, Tumors
(those last named always cured wituom pain, or
plasters in any form).
6 Uterus Complaints, Involving a mal-position,
as Prolapsus, Aiitro version, Retroversion, Inflam
mation, Ulceration, ana various other ailectiong of
tbe Womb and Ovaries.
For information desired upon othor diseases, ap
plication may be made at the office, or by letter.
Mrs. BECKWITH bas entire charge of the Ladies'
Department, and all delicacy will be used
towards those who entrust themselves to her care.
In female diseases, it is universally successful in her
hands.
