8 THE EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, MONDAY, OCTOBER 19, 1868. CITY INTELLIGENCE. Baum & Co.'s Nbw Btoke. If there b nj one point of difference, any ono prominent feature In which the cities of the Old World are htlnfruihed from those in tb New, it Is In the character ol their stores. Over the great water, In London and Furls, or Instance, the storei even of firms of wo'ld-wide reputation, doiusr business on tho grandest scale, if not eiactlj limited In exlep'i, are poor, worn, and dingy In appearance. There you may frequently find beneath a low-browed Iront, uninviting, tloomy without a vestige of paint, the fflces of a house employing hundreds of clerks, keeping busy perhaps thou sav.ds of workmen, and exporting annually mil IVons of dollars worth' of goods. Here, on this -Hide of the ocean, we seem lo entertain different pinions in regarJ to the style, structure, and appearance of our places of business. All oar lariie cities contain specimens of store architec ture that would put to f hanie the most preten tious in Europe. Our men of bubineas seem to have Initiated a spirit of rivalry in this respect to engaee in a coutcbt as to who can build the most palatial and extensive of stores and e lavlnh of money in procuring marble fronts, broad plate b1ss window, and costly adorn ments. The discrepancy existing betwpenour stores and those ot the older people across the water is one that escapes no traveller's eye. But the contest goes still iunuer. It is all owe tided as far as regards Kuropc. The f ict is at once conceded that we far surpass her In this matter and we have no trouble lu suo-Untia-ting oiir claims to superiority. She readi y acknowledges that the New goes ahead ot the Old World in the tearing of ruagniQcent edifices devoted exclusively to the purposes of trade. hoi content with this graceful surrender to us as a nation, our men of business must needs try to outvie each other; and Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and New Orleans ettcu advanre claims and arguments in their support to possess the most gorgeous, costly, and ornate ot business structures. Modesty would perhaps compel us, as rhiladrlphlans, to yield tho palm of tuperlonty to either ot the cities named, while yet we may think, and that honestly, too, that our own city could justly bear It off. Were comparison to be made, we doubt not that even the Metropolis ot the Western World, as New York proudly styles herself, would have to recede in our favor, and Broadway back down to Chesnut street, in the number of superb business structures they relatively contain. Be it as it may. aud grant It g that the victory is still uodecided, the Quaker City makes no reel in eflorts to outdo tnem all; and within the past few months many ot oar firms have erected aud opened stores tor tbe carrying on of their busiues. which could well match the best anywhere in this country, and which, lor beauty in design, grandeur of architecture, substantial character, and con venience of construction, compare with any in the world. Tbis growing tendency to five and six storied bu I dings, marble or grauite fronts, and lofty rooms, may easily be accounted for in the case of large manufacturers, where looms, engines, saws, lathes, benches, and what not, are re quired in countless numbers and diversity; but it may tax the ingenuity of many to discover a reason why jewellers, w?ioe business it seems may be confined in the smallest comoas, should follow hard lu the footsteps of the others, and run up structures almost squares in extent, em bracing apartments upon apartments, loug, broad, and high. But so it id. Hardly has one well known Drm on Chesnut street opened with a glare of brilliancy a store which seems to pre clude the possibility of a rival, before another firm, equallv as welt known and euorgetic, lays the foundation, erects tho walls, marbles the front, glasses the windows, and frescoes the ceilings of another that, it may be, puts Into the hnrit thn former. Pnr ii'ftnv months rnsttheold firm of Bailey k Co.. iewelli rs. lone established on Chesaut stree, between Eighth aud Ninth, has been pushing vicorously ahead the completion ot a tore at the sou' beast corner of Twelfth and Cbesnut streets. It is now finished, and to-day is opened to the public. No expeune baa been murpd in its nnluff up. and its owners can proudly boast that it it does not top off all other stores occupied by parties cniragcd in a similar business, it at lcait stands lank aud rauk with lho hpst. Rloiner in macntflcent proportions to the Wffht. of five stories it covers the entire depth of a lot reaching to bansom street. In width it is 44 feet. Constructed in the main of brick, its face glistens with the purest ol marble. Air, lt .ht. anrtsnretv are evervwbero through it. Myriads of windows open on theTwelith street BldC, really BO many in uuiuuer iuut me uarruw strips ot wail oetween tnem appear Dareiy capa tole of upholding the massive roof above. Not a sintrle lire for warming purposes is to bo found in the building. The heating is all done by means of the steam-pipe arrangement a vast network of tubes ramttving the whole place. Toe tructure is fire-proof from cellar to eaves; lu every detail the most guarded precautions bare been taken to protect the wood woik and com bustible portions. So thorough have been other measures of precaution, that an iucendury could hardly nna a place to appiy ms matcn. There are several entrances to the building. the principal one, of course. beinjr on Chesnut street. This is truly majestic, receding Jike a vestibule, highly nuiunea in carvca wooa work of black walnut, the edges of the plate glass in the windows whiCh flank its sides rimmed with silver, Us pavement pretty with cubical blocks ox varigatea marDic, ine entire noor ot me main store is laid with these sam3 cubical blocks. From the flagstone without you immediately tread hard upon the marble within. Once inside the place, tbe first thing which sTrUi the eye is tbe peculiar manner in which the window are constructed, anl tbe cliasto, simple, yet elcffsnt character of their finish. Ot coure the fore pari of escb. window U on a line with tho irout of the building. As the main doorway recedes between them from this 4.'.u5, Itffivtt tbem dePl.n corresponding to Its own. Nothing Is a (idea to uu uf suoiractlng eoace for the store, for the windows after tbis being made by the making of the doorway, are left to themselves. They are also constructed in what is termed the vestibule stylo their floor being the floor of the store neither shelves nor plattorms marring their sides or bottom. Here, ai everywhere throughout the place, the finisb is done in black walnut. With only tho vacant space of the doorway intervening, the windows are parallel with each other, lb either, huge mirrorB cover the sides. Note the effect. Stand ing either in tbe entrance or In the window Itself, and looking eastward or westward, you gsze down a perspective, through a Bort of corridor that appears without end. Tbe principle is a woll-understood one, but bai never yet been applied in any of our stores. The beauty of the illusion cannot bo questioned, leaving the windows you proceed up the room. With a general Rlance around your eye finally rests upon the ceiling, and resting there it turns not away without admiration for the magnificent fresco with which it is covered. Tbe celebrated Kaiser wai the artist, and in this work he has anrpMtcd himself. Patterns without number, color laid npon color, ttjlea rectangular and arabesque, a pertcct tinted confusion. As a work ot art it is fault less! It makes one of the prettiest, if not the prettiest, feature ofthe store. Scattered over the large space between the doorway aud the central counter, stand a number of marble pedestals white black, Sienna, eeaalloll Mip fortiug various statues, mythological or bis torical. all of which display the touches of mas ter cblt-eJs. (Jetting through this group, you reach the central counter, with its base of white marble, it3 cases or clear heavy glass and poll tied silver. It stretches up tbe room, then making a perfect lieml rnbere in rounded beautv, it stretches dowu tbe room. Between i s wines is a space some three to six feet In widih.for the accommodation ol the clerks. Tbis counter is devoted to flue iewclry of every description. 11 leg uf braoeleN, riiiua mid chains shimmer in the Unlit with most attractive glitter. Tbe counter upon the left hsr- .. con"' -" 'oe on entering Is the nlamoni i -AilCf. TI.m ...... .1. It,., m.lr niie'4 W.i itch. Clusters and solitaires, fine ring' '-.id buttons, temptingly scintillated in prisma ic splendor. Opposite Is the watch department. Time there Is kept in silver and golen cases. A matchless array of watches all kinds, slzs, stjles-the delicate lady's, barely the circum ference of a half dollar; the massive gentleman s. which would turn tho beam with a pound weight on the other side. Between me winuows, on a line wltn tbis last counter, me uuKo heavily carved walnut cabinets, com pletely enclosed in glass, in wu'tu au displayed the finest of silver ware goods. In the recesses made by these cabinets and the windows are placed sofas and elegant tables, designed as resting pliers for the wearied la endeavoring on inspection of the coantless things tbe store coutains. The idea was a happy one, and many are meieminine customers ot the firm who will thane them for their consideration. Against the wall opposite s one long waluut ca?e some sixty feet in lenpth cont ilDing every kind of plated poods, linck of the counters, twenty In number, is placed the bronze room. This apartment is gorgeously carpeted and fur nished in the most lavih manner. The prints and pointincs cover tho entire surface of tho walls; tables In the centre, with a double row of ihelvirg, support the beautiful spielmensof handiwork In bronze and stone. In the rear of this dennrtment. looking upon Sausoro street, Is a lieht and airy littlo room a kind ol retiring place for the firm and tbeir customers. Above are pleeping apartments lor the clerks, fitted up wi:h every conceivable convenience. Below, In the basement, are the receiving and psclnijir department. Through out the tntlre eslablMunr-nt the most perfect sslem prevails. The Mesrs. Badey A Co. occupy the whole of the firat floor, 44 feet in width by 235 in leugtli, aod the basement en tire. Several vaults and workshops are beneath the store. The beams of the structure are of iron. The windows ate all carefully protected by wlro guards. Every arrumcment lor hoisting pur poses, coal bins, turpiices. boilers, are complete. Tnkcn altogether, tlie Baileys can ougratu late themselves on havimr added to the city oue of the most splendid of edifices. of Mkstiko op thb Board op Subveys. At a meeting of the Board, this morning, the follow ing sewers were authorized to be constructed: Un feixtb streat, Jrom 'irecn to Coates, tbree feet sewer; on Frankliu street, between Uace and Vine, ten iDch-pip"; on Thirteenth street, between Cherry and Winslow. three feet sewer; cn Seventh street, between Market and arch, three feet sewer; on Eighth street, between Poplar and (jirard avenue, teL-lnch pipe; on l?ay street, between Giriird avenue and Thomp son, eight inch drain; on Dauphin street, be tween American and Second, eight-inch pipe. Tbe committee to whom was referred the peti tion for a revision of the lines and grades of that portion of the Twenty-third ward bounded rioitb by Township Lin" Koad, south by Frank ford creek, east by Frankford Road and Bristol Turnpike, west by tbu Twenty-second ward, reported a resolution requesting that, the prayer of the petition be gran'ed. Agreed to. Sectional plans No. 219. 220 and 221. estab lishing sired lines aud Trades in the Twenty third ward, were called up and approved. Adjouinrd. The BcncYLKiUi Navioation Company. At a Hireling of the stockholders and loauhoMers of this Company, h Id at 11 o'clock this morning, the following was adopted: "An ordinance altenng the time for ths annual meetings of the stockholders aud loaiiholders of the "chuylklll Navigation Company, aud reducing tie number of Managers thereof.

An Outrage on a Policeman. Policeman McAdams, of the Eleven'h district, a lew days aco arrested two men named Marliu, from in formation received, lor being tbo parties who committed the deadly assault on the lad Suitb, at tl.e Black Horse tavern, in tho Nineteenth ward, on election day. These men retaliated on Hie policeman by having a warrant issued by Alderman Dougherty tor his arrest. The docu ment was entrusted in the hands of two men to serve. On Saturday they met the officer and informed him of the object of their visit. Feel ing that he was to be consigned to a cell in the prison be desired to go for bail, and started with them for that purpose. H3 bad goue but a few vords when he was knocked down and cruelly beaten. He wus then picked up and dragged to the office ot the magistrate, where he was bouud over, and would have gone to prison had it not been lor a gentleman wuo volunteered to enter bail for his appearance. The Union Leaode Meeting to be held at Concert Hall to-morrow evening bids fair, from the nature and importance ot the call, to be oue of the largest that has vet convened in our city. Then and there public condemnation of the gross frauds which have been practiced by the leaders of the Democratic party will be ex pressed in no uncertain tone. Upublicans will meet and take counsel together as to tbe best means of vindicating the power of outraged law and tbe parity ot tbe ballot-box by the arrest of the lawless men who violated the one and "btuued" the other. Information for Congressman Merh. One of the Kebel Democracy came to grief on Satur. day last. He was before Alderman Titterm.iry, where be gave the name of George Kessler.

Yesterday (Sabbath) was an eDoort in the his tory of Methodism In the city or Heading. At an early hour In the afternoon the ltvtog tide of humanity began to set la towards tbe neigh borhood of Mnlli and Kim Bireis. Tola is one of the most beautiful locations of the moil rapidly lrupiovlng section of thlaclty. At 8!$ o'clock the crowd was Immense, and to ft t.ha Habbath Hcbools of the Khcnexer and8U Peter's M. K. Churches were added, having rnarotied together tbiongh l'eun afreet, reaching a dis tance of over two squares. The exercises were onened by the reading of tbe declaration, or Introduction of tbe service, by the Hev. T. A. Fernley, who had charoof an me arrangements or me oocrtiion This was followed by the hymn "This Rtone to Thee, OUod, we Lay," etc. itev. Dr. Puttl son rend the prayers. The 123d Psalm was read by It-V. T. A. Fern ley, the pecple, having all been provided wltn printed programmes, responded by reallug encli alternate verso, sounding as the noise of ninny wattrs. Mr. Fernley then stated that the occasion ws one ot very special interest, not only to the Metrodlst denomination, hut to tbe whole Christian community. God has many ways of accomplishing urn worn, wneti a cnuro'i is needed He sometimes puts It Into the hearts ot the gotid people to arise and build. Hoiuetlrnes he permits a schism or party spirit to drive out. a colony nolm voien.t, but in tbis case lie had moved upon the heart of one mau, filled with the spirit of practical consecration, and blessed with means to do toe whole wor hlmtelf. tie then read a part of a covenant written on parchment, and signed by Henry Crouse, in which be agrees with God, as a tbank-onTerlog, to fresent to the Metbodl t Episcopal Cnurch the ot of ground at the southeast corner of Ninth and Kim streets, and to build tbereupon a chapel or church. Tbis lot Is 120 ft. deep by 60 ft. front on Ninth street, and is undoubtedly one of the best and roost beautiful lots In theotty. The cbapel Is to be of brick, with a handsome brownstone base; to be Mulshed In Go'hto style, having a spacious end gallery, and all tbe modern improvements. It will tie Stl feet front on Kim street by 65 feet deep. The whole value of the gift will not fall far short of tV2 000. Addresses were delivered hy Rev. Dr. Pattl son, or St. Peter'; llev. Mr. Freer, or the LUp tUtCburcb; Kev. Mr. Rhodes, or the Evangeli cal Association, and by a prominent layman of the Herman Reformed Church.

The munificent girt of Mr. Crouse will act powerfully, and accomplish mncb good, not only in tbe beautiful house he is building but In stirring up others to uHk, "What am I doing with the money God has given me?" To Illustrate. At the close of the services yesterday a gentleman connected with the Ptesbyterlan Church In this city said, "I will give one hundred dollars a year to support a minister In this church for as many years as It Is needed." Others will be fonnd of the s ime mind. There is no such word as "fill" in the Christian's vocabulary. Success lo the causa of God and of Methodism in Reading. We should have stated that this new enter prise is lobe called the Church of tbe Cove nant, or "The Covenaut M. E. Chnrob," allusive to tbe peculiar circumstances of Us origin. Hov. J. A.

The President yesterday sent for tbe Aeent of tho Associated Press, sod to-t'ay a statement appears through that source denying that the Presideut had an; idea of bclr.g a candidate on tbe Demo cratic ticket, provided Bejmour were thrown overboard. This whs evidently an af.erthought with Johnson, for "Warden," who telegraphs directly from the White House to parti an newspapers, used Johnson's name several times last week, as a feeler, and in his despatches to day forcibly arpues tbat the Democrats ought to change their candidates. lie would not dare take tbis ground In oppositiou to the President. Tho Associated Press despatches probably repre sent Johnson's Ideas before dinner, and War den's tbe fcntiirents o bis patron after dinner. This la the Interpretation put upon these con flicting statements here. It Is notorious that Johnson was highly elated with the proposed withdrawal, and would bave gone on the ticket, but CLdinp the principal leaders of tbe party averse to change, he now denies that lie ever encouraged It. The Intelligencer to-day, in a labored editorial, tries to prove that tbe contest which has just terminated in Pennsylvania, Ohio, snd Indiana, is a defeat of radicalism. It still favors a change of candi dates for tbe Democracy. lostinaaterOener.U Randall bas gone to New York to consult Democratic lead era there in regard to withdrawing Seymour and Blair. This idea Las not been abandoned. Despatch to the Atsociated Press. Treasury Department Defanlters. Washington, Oct. 19.

They expected the Legislature would appiopriate the necessary amount of money to buy tbe arms from them. The Governor's telegram to the Secretary ot War, statins; thiit be is satiated that armed resistance to the laws is contemplated, occasions much comment among prominent officials, who say they csnnot understand why he should entertain such fears, as he himself states tbat the arms were thrown overboard by the captors. Tlie Queen of Blndugaacar kas presented to the Government some beauti fully wrought and variously colored fabrics of heavy silk and other materials, probably in tended for table or bed spreads.
