Davis, and McElroy were yesterday elected resident physicians of the Almshouse. Mrs. Caphound has been committed by Alderman Kerr to answer the charge of arson, in setting fire to the premises No. 431 N. Eighth street, on last Saturday evening. The trial of skill between the steamers of the Good Intent and Resolution Fire Com panies came off in Camden yesterday. The steamer of the former company was disabled in the contest. The Resolution was declared the winner.

The annual report of the Thiladolphia City Institute shows that daring the past year !448 books were taken out of the library, an increase over the preceding year of nearly U000 volumes, or 20 per cent. On the 8th of last November a night school of the Institute was opened by the permission of the Board of Controllers of the Publics Schools in the Northwest Grammar School, Henry B. "Wb.it tington acting as principal, and kept open sixty nights. The number of pupils regis tered and in attendance daring the term was 441. The average attendance per night was 100; the greatest on any one night, 22'J. The ages of the pupils ranged from 12 to CO years; the average age 20 years. The steamship Tonawanda, of the South ern mail line, left this port on Saturday for Savannah, Ga., and encountered a terrific storm when about fifty miles this side of Cape Hatteras. The wind blew a hurricane and the rain came down in torrents, rendering it almost impossible for the vessel to be worked. In the midst of the storm, about 4 o'clook on Sunday morning, the motion of the ship caused a displacement of the boilers, break ing off the steampipe, and at once filling the fire and engine room with steam, and driving the firemen and engineers from their posts to the spar deck, one or two of them being slightly scalded. The Chief Engineer at once Tallied the men, leading them back again, and at the same time a donkey engine was used to throw water into the ship. Reaching the fire-room, the live coals were hauled out from the furnace into the water, which by this time was of sufficient depth to extinguish them, and by extraordinary effort and courage the vessel was prevented from taking fire. Early last evening, a fire was discovered in Greenly 'a tobacco factory at Eighth and Mountain streets, in the First Ward. Fortu nately it was discovered in time to prevent it extending and but little damage was done. Between G and 7 o'clock last evening, smoke was discovered issuing from a storehouse in the rear of No. 118 South Delaware avenue, occupied by Messrs. Koons, Brother & Co., dealers in provisions. Upon the place being entered, the fire was seen to be on the second floor, and before it could be checked it had spread to the third and fourth floors, destroying or greatly damaging a large stock of cheese and a number of bags of peanuts. The storehouse fronting on the avenue is chiefly occupied by the firm above named. Messrs. Isaao B. Benners & Co., dealers in fruit, have the first floor. All the damage in this building was to the stock by water, and the loss in both store houses is covered by insurance. The rear building is owned by Mr. Joseph R, Evans. About a quarter to 11 o'clock last night a fire broke out in Greenly's tobacco factory, at Eighth and Mountain streets, which had been on fire early in the evening, and the flames spreading rapidly through the structure it was burned out before their progress could be arrested. There was some machinery and considerable stock on hand, and the loss has been roughly estimated at $8000. Domestic Affair. Gold closed yesterday at 111 J. Secretary Boutwell is in favor of giving Baltimore an Assistant Treasurer. Colonel Taylors majority in the Fifth Pennsylvania district is given in Mr. Cessna's report as 72. The time for the ratification of the San Domingo treaty has been extended for thirty days from to-day. A resolution that Canada purchase Alaska and the State of Maine has passed the British Columbia Legislature. From the resolute bearing of the miners at a meeting at Pottsville, on Saturday, there is now no doubt that work will be suspended on April 1. Twelve men were frozen to death in the northwestern part of Iowa during the storm of the irth inst. Six others, it is feared, met a similar fate. The Ways and Means Committee have struck from the Funding bill the clause per mitting the exchange of greenbacks for four cent, bonds. ' Last evening's proceedings in the House at Harrisburg were of the most disgraceful character, bills being rushed through on the mere reading of their titles. It is proposed by the friends of the San Domingo treaty that a Congressional commis sion be sent to me lsiana to examine into its desirability for annexation. The great Democratic meeting did not come off in New York last night, the Tam many Society closing their hall, fearing a dis turbance. Indeed, as it was, only the presence of a strong force of police preserved the peace, so evidently were the roughs bent on miscnittf. An indignation meeting was held by the Young Democracy. During the afternoon the Tammany sachems met, and appointed a committee to try and restore harmony between the opposing factions. Forelsn Affalra. Both the University crews are in wretched form. Lopez is still leading the Brazilian troops a weary dance. " Prince Bonaparte's acquittal is much commented on in London. Ollivier submitted to the French Senate, yesterday, a project based upon Napoleon's recent letter. Transatlantic steamers sailing from Liverpool have been ordered to take a south eriy course, to avoiu iteuergn.

Speaking of the Albany free soup-bouse the journal oi mat city gives tne loiiowing statis tics for Tuesdav: 'Visitors, 10: number in family, 1000." They apparently have large lamules at tne state capital. INCONSISTENCIES. For The Evening Ttltijravh. When will our prominent writers and ora tors, loving pence as they profess to do, be consistent ? The Press said a few days since, advocating the Coolie bill: "If the children of the sol diers of this war are neglected, dishonored their labor contracted out whence will come the soldiers of the next wart" Let no child be neglected. But the reason assigned is in the interest of war, the fruitful cause of destitute orphans, and to speak of the "next war," and by predicting and pre paring for it, it is hastened and made immi nent. Rather say take such good care of the children that we educate them to believe deadly force should never be resorted to, and war will be rendered impossible. Last evening our Academy of Mnsio was filled with a delighted audience, justly appre ciating our good and true friends in the tem perance cause, Governor Geary, Hon. Schuy ler Colfax, Vice-President of the United States, General O. O. Howard, and D. P. Newman, D. D. That we may rise to a higher degree of en lightenment and Christianity I refer to some unfortunate passages in the remarks of each speaker: Vice-President Colfax said: "If you wish to strengthen the military arm of the country embrace the divine cause of temperance." Now, intemperance makes wars and intem perance upholds armies, and if temperance is "to strengthen the military arm of the country," it is a moral agent doing an im moral work, for it would uphold that system which subverts the ten commandments, the beatitudes and the teachings and example of Jesns Christ. Let us hope that the spread of temperance will render war so mnpopular that it will be impossible and the "military arm" unnecessary. Governor Geary introduced General How ard as the "Christian soldier," words strongly paradoxical; for if a "Christian," he is a fol lower of Christ, and Christ denounced war and every semblance of war; and if a "sol dier," he is in league with man wounding and man killing. Let these two words never be used together except in mockery of our boast ful Christianity. Then Howard, so noble in his work for the freedmen, opened with those glowing words, "Love the Lord thy God with all thy heart and thy neighbor as thyself," and it caused a close inquiry whether the profession of a soldier accorded practice with precept. Far be it from me to arraign unkindly the honesty of purpose of those who lived up to their highest convictions of daty, even in engaging in war, for without charity we are poor indeed, but there are times when a word may be fitly spoken, and I do it now for good. General Howard had been in the army, and had influenced others to engage in that whioh I cannot but conceive to be antagonistic to the teachings of that Book from which he quoted, and which also enjoins upon us: "Love your enemies, bless them that curse yon, do good to them that hate you," etc, in junctions incompatible with burning towns, tearing off the limbs of human beings, cut ting off supplies of water, and shooting and stabbing unto death. Next a reverend, D. P. Newman, D. D., of Washington, spoke, and although a minister, he thought to compliment the soldier by say ing "he carried the sword in one hand and the Cress in the other." Oh! how swiftly the thought was presented to me that it would be appropriate then to whisper, "Let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth. This "sword," the emblem of hate, tor ture, and death to some poor creature, and this "Cross," the emblem of love, forgiveness, and immortal life to all. One hand using the weapon of destruction, protecting oneself by killing a brother, the other saving and self sacrificing, by suffering rather than causing suffering, and dying rather than killing. How can the advocate of the New Testa ment utter such sentiments? He spoke beau tifully when he said the mother taught her children "not to lie, not to steal, not to kill," and yet I could not help thinking, and my love for the right will not permit me to with hold the thought that the frequent and perhaps unguarded prestige given to that sys tem which is full of lying, stealing, and killing, especially when given by eminent statesmen, philanthropists, and ministers, is destroying the home teachings and is a sad mistake, and one which I trust time and serious reflection will cure; and were it not that I feel these friends of temperance to be so good and true that they accept criticism kindly, and that it may open the eyes of pro fessing Christendom to the real principle of "peace on earth," I should regret expressing these convictions of my heart.
