Concluding with an appeal entreating sym
pathy for the freedmen, and an earnest public
interest in their welfare, the speaker in appro-
frinte remarks introduced the Rev. George
lushes, the spent of the Freedmeu's Aid So
ciety of the Methodist Episcopal Church:
' Mr Hughes remarked that the audienoe had not
assembled to hear dincussed any political issue, or to
advance the Interest ot any political organization,
'J bey had assembled in a Curistlan capacity, to con
sider the meat moral and religious quenlluus which
ailed the moial and religious inieresla ol our country,
and which have a bearlug upon the extensiou or the
freedmeu'a caube, aud their Individual elevation.
1 he progress and termination of tne great struggle lu
which the people have been eugaged, as a nation,
have developed these questions. At an early period,
at the dawn of the freedrnau's freedom, the Method
ist Church looked at the great lact that the close of the
war bad brought with It the liberation of 4.000,000 of
tunian beings who had been held lu the degradation of
Beivltuda lor centuries; aud desiring to enter every
door that bad been providentially opened In any part
of tba universe, for the uplltliugof its fellow-men, waa
disposed at once to command all her resources, aud
enter upon this new held ol Christian activity and
labor. And the prominent mluda of the Church,
looking abroad over the vast tractor country which
bad been the borne of the slave, wl nesslug this sud
den liberation by the results of a prolonged aud hard
fought struggle, saw that It was an Indispensable ne
cessity, and of vast importance to the future standing
of all political and religious Interests of tbe nation,
that they should be educated elevated from their
stations of degradation and should be brought under
tbe benign Influence or the power of earnest Christian
cateche.lcal culture.
Until Augustoi ItMiS the Methodist Episcopal Church
bad acted in concert with other Christian denomiua
t ops. Hut thi y each lu turn severing tbe'r connec
tion wltu this heterogeneous organlzatlon.aud lormlng
denominational societies, It was thought that the Me
tbodlslChurcb Bhould dosome hing In the same man
ner. It was seen that we could not prosecute our
missionary work in the Houtu without this further
aid, uor could the Church Extension work be prose
cuted without this other great auxiliary. Conse
quently a convention or prominent ministers and lay
men, meeting In the city of t luclnuall In August last,
resolved to organize this Freedmen's Aid Society
ol the Methodist Kpiscopal Church, arranging to have
a representation in the liuard of Managers lrom each
of the Annual Conferences. Subsequently the bishops,
In looking over the held of proposed labor, fully re
cognised tbe Importance ot tbe work, and Issued an
address to the churches, In which they declared that
tbe necessities ot the work weresucb that tbe school
must be planted alongside or the church in tbe South;
that tbe Christian teacher must go forth lu connec
tion with the CbrhCian missionary , to lay deep aud
bread tbe true foundations of the moral and religious
aupersti uclure It was prooosed to erect in tbe bouthern
country.
1 he society, which has been but a few months In ope
ration, has already established some forty or liny
schools at points where our missionary work Is
thought to be most Important. Teachers have been
put In the field ; and Just as fur ss the Church lur
nihbesthe means, there will be untold numbers of
Christian men and women to exert their lutluence,
In bringing their power or soul aud uiitid to bear
upon Ibis great labor at the South. i
1 be crralobj. ct of tbe Intellectual and moral eleva
tion of these feedmeu, Is one which appeals to every
Christian heart, and especially to the mind aud heart
' of every Methodist man aud womau for it has been
emphatically Bald ol Methodism, that "It Is Chris
tianity In earnest," Thus being earnest In any work
wticii Is put upon them, there Is but one Inquiry for
their consideration, "Does Ood open a door In that
direction?" If l e does, this Is our workl Imme
diately advance Its forces lev us enter the door aud
tftke Dossession of the field. Kur Methodism Is ever
engaged In any labor, in forelgu lauds or upon the
Boll ol our uwn country, inai wuuiu venu io vue en
ligbtenment of ignorant people. Wherever the work
waa louiid, tbelr ready hands, prompted by willing
liuuriH. were reudv for the work. j
Ills a question this of the proper education of tbe
freedmen which must largely engage the aiieutlon
or every Christian In tbe laud, aud of every intelli
gent patriot who looks for tue progress of our own

in order to promote the greater personal and pub
lic cleanlineBS of the city. '
Mr. Hancock offered tbe following substitute:
Whereas, Tbe newspapers of the city, Board of
Health and Judge ot the Supreme Court have
made sundry uncalled for and malicious attacks
on tbe Councils ot Philadelphia ior not making an
appropriation to the Board of Health for sanitary
purposes; and whereas, an appropriation of 807,
401) was made to said Board ot Health for that pur
pose, to be nsed during this year: and whereas,
these Councils are not censurable for not making
said appropriation to said Board, as they believe
tbey represent the wlsbes of their constituents,
and are better able to understand the wants of the
people, and have no faith In aaid Board to expend
said money judiciously; and believing that the
Judge of the Supreme Court referred to had bet
ter attend to bis duties aa a Judge, instead of
stooping to berate a body of men, and Interfering
with matters that be knows nothing of; therefore,
Section 1. The Select and Common Councils of
the city of Philadelphia doordaiu, that ths sum of
40,ii0u be and ths anme is hereby appropriated to
pay lor tbe removal of nuisances, aud tor the sa
nitary officers of the city ot Philadelphia, in view
of tbe approach of cholera.
Section li. That tbe supervisors of the different
wards be and tbey are hereby empowered to ex.
amine and ascertain the condition of tbe streets,
bouse, arc, and report the same to the lieutenants
of the different police districts, who shall report
tne asma to the Mayor, who shall forthwith pro
ceed to remove the same, aud tbe expenses incur
red shall be paid out of tbe above appropriation.
Section U. Warrants for said appropriation shall
be drawn by the Mayor, in oonformlty with exist
ing ordinances.
Mr. Hancock spoke in favor of bis bill. He be.
lievad in making an appropriation for tbe removal
of nulsancee daring the summer, but be wjs op
posed to the money going to the Board of Health,
to be expended by ihein. He thought the Mayor
h..irt .,,nrintend the removal of nuisances, and
the money should be appropriated to him, and not
to a body who cannot give an account of how they
expend their approprlatlona. Mr. HauooOk lu.
oniied what became of the money appropriated to
ths Board last year! He knew that Inspectors
were appointed' whose duty It waa to or Jar .be
tSZnutvt cesspools, at ths expense of the own-
EVENING' TELEGRAPHTIIILADELPIIIA, FRIDAY,
,era of propfpy visited, bnt pet out of tba money
spptopriated to the Board.
Mr. Hsi cock spose in severe terms ot the Jndge
of tbe Soptfrre Court,, whom ha argued hnd can
surf d Councils tor cot matin g the appropriation
ito tbe Board, and who bad written a letter to tbe
Governor, prevailing npon him to convene the
Legislature. ,
Mr. Wagner considered Mr, Hancock's attack
on tbe Judge ns unjust. He said tbe letter had been
wiitlen previous to tbe adjournment of tbe Legls
laturc. As to tbe appropriation, be was In favor of
psssltglt,and the Board of Health, belngestablleh
ed lor sanitary purposes, should have the expending
of the fame. He raid the Board of Health consista
of fentlemen, and their honesty was not doubted.
Tbe rr.oLsy appropriated to '.he Board last year was
spent judiciously, and In support of this be cited
tbe few cares of cholera Ibat occurred in this city
dbrii g lost summer in comparison with the 'many
in dher cities. - Heoonstdered that the money was
acinnlly necessary at. the present time, as tbe vari
ous streets were In a flitby condition.
Mr. Evans was In favor of referring tbe matter
to tbe Committee on Law.
Mr. Baidsley moved to refer to a Joint special
committee of five from each Chamber, for investi
gation into tbe alleged abuses ot tbe Board of

about 9 o'clock Col Riddle and his brotber came
into the bar-room, and asked tor Mr. Ovens; he
came into the back room or office; Col. Riddle ask
ed me what right I had to send bim this paper; I
asked bim his name, and he told me; I asked him
where he resided, and ba told me; 1 also aBked him
who owned the furniture of this bouse; he said his
mother; I told him that we took him to be the head
of tbe house, and that Was the reason we left him
tbe paper; he told me that he had nothing but a
silver watch; I asked bim if be would not be re
sponsible tor his mother's furniture; be said no, she
can attend to that herself; 1 took the paper and went
into the bar-room with both of tbe gentlemen; I put
tbe paper in my drawer, and told him I would fix
It myself; I told him it any man would go back on
bis mother he was a loafer: Mr. J. Riddle said "no,
yon are a loafer;" he raised his hand, and his bro
tber took a pitcher lrom tbe bar and hit me In the
bead and knocked me down, aud both got on me;
Mr. Gamble came to assist me and Mr. G. waa
knocked down also; I was then struck with a cane,
which waa broken over my arm; Mr. Barclay gave
me tbe piece of cane next day; I waa again atruck
over the head with a pttcher and kuocked in
sensible: I then knew nothing of the affair till next
morning; I have not seen Gamble since tbe affair;
I felt sorry tbat tbe affair should have happened
In my house; Mr. Gamble, Mr. Hornkeith and Mr.
Kulp were in the bouse at tbe time; the deceased
knocked me down; I think Mr. John Riddle
knocked me down tbe second time; Mr, Reese said
deceased was struck with a brick.
Br. jSbaptelgh, sworn I made a post-mortem

, A Committee of Sanitary Ikspkctors. A
Committee ol Five, from each branch of tjoan
cils, waa yesterday appointed la relation to the
health and cleanliness of the city, aud to ia
vestigate specilicaUv any alleged want of effort
or atttDtion by tbe Department of Health in the
discharge ot their duties. This action ia in
consequence of the published curd of the Board
of Health which aoDeared In our columns, to the
' effect that tbe 'department had been rendered
totally inefficient, by reason of Councils having
relui-ed the passage of their application for a
special appropiiatlon of $26,000 lor sanitary
; purposes, at their meeting last Thursday. This ,
! committee will consider the propriety of eetab
lloliiug a Board of Filteeu Sanitary Itispegtiirs,
to be appointed by the Mayor, for three months,1
' from the 15iu proximo, at a monthly salary of
f50 escb. The matter will be anally disposed
of at the next meeting oi Councils.
JrroE Kf.llkt !?EKF.NArF,r. Tlie Hon. judge
Kelley, who has just returned lrom the South,
was complimented with a Bcrennde last evening
at Ins residence, rortj-lirt ami Myit e Btrccu.
A large number of ladies and freiiilerficn were
present. After the band bad plaed several
airs, the Judge niado hi nppearauce, and pro
ceeded to address his friends at some length
'lijion what he taw and heard durintr his extended
trip through toe South, embracing the Stii'te oi
Kentucky, Tennessee, MiFsinHppI, Louisiana,
Alabama, tkoicia. South Carolina, Nonh Car.i
litis, and Viipiuiu. , He laid on every hand he
taw an unusual and varied natural wealth, but
the mi I ate cl the land bad been utterly ex
ha neted in mauy places by lie constant culti
vation oi coin sou eotum.
In rciertncc lo the poii'lcnl condition of the
South, the Judre raid ''that the anstooracv ol'
tie South were discontented and opposed to
the scheme ol reconstruction provided by Con
press, but the men who had louirht in the Cou
f derate army ann the mas9 0f the people were
in lawir of rr construction." He also said "tbat
there was no necessity to send Northern men
Siuih lo teach the coiored men their political
duties, as there were plenty of white men,
natives of the South, able and intelligent
enough to do all that w as rcqu'red."
In conclusion, the Juoi;e stated "that the
best' regenerators and reconstructors of the
South will be subsoil ploughs, modem agricul
tural Inplemeutf, phosphates, and other ma
nures, new and good stock of horned cattle,
ana machinery to be moved by the great water
power running tLroufch all the States he had
vifited. Ihese, with a small capital and a fair
degree ol enterprise and industry, would do
more to legencrate the South than all the
meral and religious teachings, valuable as tbey
arc, could ace mnlish In len or twenty jears.'

The Philadelphia Gas Works. Some
months since a committee was appointed by
Councils to report upon tbe propriety of the
city purchasing the Philadelphia Gas Works.
Before the purchase can be made tt is necessary
to obtain the consent ot the holders of the Uas

was sent to these parties, but up to the present
time answers have only been received : from
those holding about $50,000 worth of the Gas
