Klute, where lie wus born on the l'.'lu of Feb
ruary, lnlt). Ills only opportunities lor acquir
ing an education were such as the village sctiool
allordcd; and even this was not. always avail
able, ns a considerable portion of bis youth was
punned as a clerk in his father's store. In 1810,
however, ho had become so well known that he
was elected a member of the State Legislature.
From 1K13 to 1844 he served as Clerk to the
House of Assembly, and during the latter year
was a member of the Htate Constitutional
Convention. In 1816 Mr, Cattell removed
to Philadelphia, where be resided until

Cattell served as a member of the City Councils
of Philadelphia, and after his removal to New
Jersey con tinned to take an active part In poll
tits. During the war he was realousaud un
tiring in bis efforts In behalf of the national
cause, freely giving both time and money
towards recruiting and fitting out the cele
brated Corn Exchange Kegltnent. After
an exciting and protracted contest, he
was in September last elected to fill the
vacancy In the United States Heuate caused by
the ousting of the Hon. John I'. Stockton.
Senator Caltell entered upon the discharge of
bis new duties at once, and before the close of
the first session bad worked bis way Into the
trout ranks of our national legislators. He
was especially instrumental in securing the
?assage through the senate of the bill acoept
ng League Island as an iron-clad naval depot,
laboring side by side with Senators Grimes, of
Iowa, and Hendricks, of Indiana, while the
two representatives of I'enusylvaula sat list
lessly In their seats.
In return for the substantial services thus
rendered rhiladelphiu, several of our leading
citizens, without regard to party lines, are
about presenting to Senator Cattell a fitting
token of their appreciation. It consists of a
complete service, in sterliugsolid silver, valued
at Supoo. The service embraces a lare salver,
two waiters,-a coffee urn, tea and water pot,
sugar bowl, oyster bowl, cream pitcher, slop
bowl, two butter dishes, two castors, napklu
rings, dessert spoons, teaspoons, musttiru ana
salt spoons, knives, forks, fish knlfe.frultknlfe,
etc., all inclosed in a beautiful velvet-lined case
of walnut. The principal pieces are orna
mented with a neat Roman border, while the
covers and handles of the urn and bowls are
set off with femnle heads in frosted sliver. The
salver weighs 200 ounces, and is alone worth
1900. It contains the following Inscription:
"Testimonial of esteem and respect to Hon.
Alexander G. Cattell, from a few of his friends.
May 14, 1807." The box is accompanied by a
handsome scroll, enclosed in a silver case.
This scroll contalus, in the most beautiful and
finished chlrography, the names of the contri
butors to the testimonial together with a view
of League Island, with tLe monitors riding at
anchor.and asceneon theriver front of the city.
The set vice wus completed on Saturday, at the
manufactory of Mr.George Sharp, No.4U Locust
street, lnthisclty, andembraclng, as It undoubt
edly does, thefluest specimen of silverware ever
produced in this country, will long remain a
substantial token of the skill of Philadelphia
silversmiths. On Saturday afternoon the entire
service was taken to the residence of Joseph
W Bullock, Esq.. No. 1822 Arch street, where it
was the centre of attraction to large numbers
of our citizens during the course of the evening

Who is Responsible?
Victim ol debility, who Is responsible for your
feebleness ? Not yourself, you will say, for you've
done all you could to cure It. Thai's a mistake on
your part.
You haven't tried HOSTETTER'S BITTERS.
Gloomy dyspeptic, with an uneasy Btomach and a
world-weary face, ol course you don't think yourself
responsible for your own torments. But you are. It
is easy to see from your condition that
You haven't tiled HOSTETTERS BITTERS.
Bilious sufferer, it Is not your fault, you think, that
your symptoms grow worse day by day. Blue pill
doesn't do you any good. Very likely. But you can
be brought round tor all that.
Why haven't you tried HOSTETTER S BITTERS ?
Friend, on whom Fever nd Ague alternately blows
hot and cold, and whose brain seems to be bursting
with the effects oi some powerful drug, do you assume
the responsibility? Ob, no! You've taken piles Of
quinine, and all the regulation medicines. Wbt
could you do more ? One thing more the very thing
that would have exempted you from all the pangs
that now rack you.
You ha"6 never tried HOSTETTEIVS BITTERS.
Nervous Invalid, what have you to say T You plead
that you have taken all the nervines of the pharma
copeia. If they have done you no good, it Is not your
fault. You are not responsible. Wrong, all wrong.
You have. In reality, nobody to blame but yourself.
Why haven't you tried IIOSTETTER'S BITTERS?
For all the above-named complaints, the Bitters are
absolute speciiies.

Richmond, Va., Maj 13. At 11 o'clock this
morning, Jeff. Davis was conveyed from his
quarters at the ipottswood House to the United
States Supreme Court-room, opposite Capitol
Square. As early as 10 o'clock a large crowd,
composed principally of negroes, assembled in
front of the hotel, anxious to get a glimpse of
the stem statesman. There was no disturb
ance or excitement.
Shortly before 11 o'clock, a company of
United States cavalry reached the hotel, and
had a position on Main street. Carriages were
held in readiness for Davis, and preparations,
made for a procession to the Court House.
General Burton accomplished, however, a
Hank movement, for, instead of taking Davis
out on the main street, he had him transported
to the court-room by means of a back door,
and while the crowd were awaiting his ap
pearance on the street, Davis was safely en
sconced in the Court-room.
The Court-room was filled to its utmost
capacity, and guarded outside by United
States soldiers. Among those present, in ad
dition to the counsel for the prisoner, and the
Prosecuting Attorneys, there were General
Granger, John Minor Botts, General Scholield,
Colonel Gibson, Judge Ould, General Imboden,
General Bradley T. Johnson, Horace Greeley,
General Brown, James W. Hunnioutt, Provost
Marshal Or is well, and a number of others.
Davis entered the Court-room at twenty
minutes past 11 o'clock, and was assigned a
seat in a corner, near Marshal Duncan. He
looked pale and haggard, was dressed in a
dark suit, black slouch hat, green kid gloves,
and carried a cane. He was subsequently
provided with a seat near his counsel, and sat
between William B. Reed and Charles
O'Conor.
The proceedings were opened by Charles
O'Conor, who read the writ prtducing the
prisoner in lourt. Judge underwood then
relieved General Burton of the custody of the
prisoner.
A lengthy speech was made by Mr. O'Co
nor in lavor of admitting Davis to bail, and
any amount of bail was offered.
William M. Evarts and District Attorney
Chandler then replied to Mr. O'Conor.
After some law technicalities were gone through
with, Judge Underwood addressed the counsel,
and argued the question of admitting the
prisoner to hail.
He said it would be satisfactory to the Court,
tinder the circumstances, to admit Mr. Davis
to bail in the sum of one hundred thousand
dollars, and he would require ten securities in
ten thousand dollars each.
After some further preliminaries, it was de
cided to admit the prisoner to bail in the sum
of $100,000, and twenty gentlemen entered
the required amount in the sum of $5000 .
each.
The names of the securities are as follows:
W. IT. McFarland, Barton Haxall, Isaac Da
venport, Thomas R. Price, Abraham Warwick,
Gustavus A. Miles, W. W. Crump, James
Lyons, James Thomas, John A. Meredith,
William Allen, William H. Lyons, John
Minor Botts, all of Virginia, and Ilorac Gree
ley, Augustus Schell, Horace . Clark, all of
the Southern District of New York; Aristides
Welch, of the Eastern District of New York;
and David K. Jackson, of the Eastern District
of Pennsylvania.
The two additional securities are. expected

' Mexican Mews.
Baltimore, May 13. The special correspon
dent of the Mun. at Havana Bays: Tne Kuglisli
West India mall steamer arrived from Vera
Cruz on the 5t h, but brought neither papers nor
letters from Mexico.
- Vera Crnz was still closely besieged by the
Liberals, who were using their only available
Blege piece with little ellect, as only some few
houses had been injured, and no lives lost.
There was no probability of the Liberals taxing
the city unless the Imperial Generals should
disagree, and inns cause a surrender.
Hlcknoss among the besieged had taken
alarming proportions, over 2M Invalids being
In Medllliu.
The city of Mexico wns Invested on the ISth
by General Porflrlo Diaz. A commission of
Indies who went out asking for terms answered
that no quarters would be granted to Generals
O'Haran, Marquez, and several others. It was
the Intention of Marquez to defend the city at
all hazards. The besieging force numbers about
12,000, and receives additions dally. The fall ot
the city was considered certain. Hunger will
soon compel the besieged to capitulate, when
another massacre, of general olllcers may be
expected. ,
Assaults. John McCann, and Edward, his
brother, were arrested about 01. M., yesterday
evening, at Eleventh and Carpenter streets, by
Officers X)' Brian andMlnk. They had been
very disorderly, and engaged iu street rows,
which led to their arrest.
On passing the corner of Twelfth and Car
penter streets a crowd enme to the re.one of
John Mcl'ann, and fell to beating UlHcer
O'Hrian, who, drawing a pistol aud tiring It In
Ibeir midst, soon dispersed them. John had
meanwhile run down Milton street, but the
r fflcer soon followed, and presenting the sixer.
Intimated that no more capers would ba
allowed. He was taken before Aldermau Lutz,
and committed In default of SSOo bail.
