Tne aggregates of the amounts and values of the
different kinds of petroleum exported from the port
of Philadelphia from the first of January to the
thirtieth of September, 1S70, and for the same period
of the yeur 1809, compare as follows:
18?9. 1870.
Crude, gallons 1,165,707 2,869,396
Crude, dollars value (246,813 543,149

The amounts for this year show a large Increase
over those of last, except for benzine, In place of
which appears a large export of naptha, of which
there was no export last year. This corresponds to
the export of benzine, for some of the uses of which
latter the naptha Is appltcd. The aggregate of the
shipments this year of all kinds is 35,939,779 gallons,
which Is an Incieise of 13,949,031 gallons over the
same period last year, the last year's amount being
21,99,749 gallons. The total value of this year's ex

Not only has the trade not been hindered by th
interference of the European war, but by referring
to the table It will be found that the export of German
porta, notwithstanding the blockade, has largely in
creased. This Is also the case regarding llelglum,
where the general armament Interferes with trade.
In Holland and England, countries not disturbed by
the war, the trade has decreased. In Spain, Cuba,
Ireland, and France there has been a much better
demand. When peace Is declared in Kurope, a much
larger Increase may be expected. Petroleum Is now
one of the standard exports of the city, and it la the
basis on which the foreign trade generally either
does or will eventually rest.

While Third street was In the sea of excitement
on Saturday last with reference to the arrest made
at the establishment of Olendinnlng, Davis A Co.,
there was another little game of swindling going on
further down that thoroughfare, which resulted suc
cessfully to the operators, and by which C. D'lnvll
llers, broker, No. 129 South Third street, Is a loser
to the extent of (Jt03 b7. The facts of the casc;are
as follows:
On the 2d of September there arrived In this city
from New York, at the Cont'nental Hotel, an Indi
vidual who registered bis name as J. W. Tweed.
What his business was up to the loth of this month
is not known, but on this da? he left the hotel, nnd
at the same lime there appeared In front or No.
811 K Walnut street a sign which told passers-by that
J. w. Tweed had opened an otllce In the second
story, and that he was prepared to buy and sell ail
kinds of stocks on commission.
He opened an account with the Union National
Bank, at Third and Arch streets, with a deposit of
(3000, reserving in hand (as margin money) a like
amount for operations on the street. Tweed pur
chased stocks, paid for them In checks on the bank,
the latter were duly honored, and thus he succeeded
In establishing for himself a legitimate business re
putation. To further Increase the confidence of the
business community Tweed resorted to a system of
tactics at once very simple. He made large pur
chRNes of stocks (giving In frequent cases a bonus of
(20 to secure the particular stock he desired), paid
for them In checks, turned round and resold them,
made his deposits before 3 o'clock, thus he went
on from day to day until the orpjrtunlty for a
swindle offered.
On the afternoon of Sa'urday Tweed repaired to
theoftice of Mr. D'Invilliers and bought four(1000
I'Dited States Covcrnmcnt bonds and (2700 In gold,
which, with the premium added, ran up the amount
of the purchase to (7503-87, for which he gave a
check, duly certified by the cashier of the Union
Hank, In payment. Tweed's check was deposited,
and when it was presented to the Union Bank for
collection the siguature of the cashier was disco
vered to be a forgery. Of course, since that time
nothing has been heard of Tweed. The matter Is In
the hands of the detectives, ami with a view to put
parties on their guard against purchasing the bonds,
we will state thnt they are five-twenties of the lsue
of July, 1967, and are numbered as follows: N09,
4037, 40,538, 40,639, 40,540.
The forger is apparently from thirty-five to forty
vcars of age, Is about. Ave feet ten inches in height,
has a email moustache and a small goatee, and is
dressed in a dark mixed sulc and wears a still" black
hat.
There was an accomplice, who had registered
himself at the Continental as T. C Kendrlck. He
Is about the same nge as Tweed, has reddish mous
tache, daik complexion and no whiskers, large eyes,
and of gentlemanly demeanor.
Mr. D'Invilliers has oilered a reward of (590 for
the apprehension of Tweed aud his accomplice.
At a meeting of the board of Brokers held to-day,
the followltur resolution was adopted :
Resolved, That the board oiler a reward of (500 for
the arrest and conviction- of the party or parties
concerned in the forgery wnereuy one or our mem
bers was swindled out of (7500 on Saturday, October
1st, by a forged certificate on a check ou the Union
National name 01 trns cuy.
T11R Watek Scrrr.v of Gkkmantown. The
scarcity ol water In Germantown still continues. On
Saturday steps were taken to make Wlngoliocking
creek a source of supply to the citizens of that sec
tlon of the city, and Mr. Morrell. Purveyor of the
Germantown Works, called upon the proprietors of
the factories located In the vicinity, and requested
that they desist from allowing the dye-water from
their establishments to empty into the stream. This
request, with a single exceptional instance, was
obligingly complied with. The construction of the
temporary works win oe commenced rortnwitii.
Purveyor Morrell conferred with the Chief of the
Department, and the point on the creek selected is
between Haines and High streets. A temporary
dam win De constructed oy tnrowmg a breastwork
across the meadows at this point. A portable engine
win ie placed at a convenient spot, ami a pump
brougnt into requisition.
The pines, we understand, win connect wun tne
Haines street water main. There is yet a two days'
supply at the works prorer on Tuipenocken street.
and It will hardly be exhausted before the new
works are completed.

of Aldermen.
IHore Conuclliiien.
Counsel stated to the Court that by the extra as
sessment it bad beeu discovered that the Nluth.
Seventeenth, and Twenty-fifth wards were entitled
to an additional member of Cimnum Council, and
the Court was asked to nay whether the Is hen
should Issue a supplementary proclamation for the
election of these luemberb. The JuIhj said they had
decided the name question lust year, that the assess
ment was not complete until ar.er tue extra assess
ment was made, aud that any wrong resulting from
a delect 01 tr.e law or oversignt 01 tue onicers should
be remedied by a supplemental proclamttion, whiol
was accordingly directed to be issued.
Tb MemavaU uud Mubaittntloaa.
Mr. Mann obtained the foliowiug changes:

' In the matter of the Judge of the Sdvcuth division
ef the First ward, who was sal I to hava removed to
Vermont, there being no competent proof of that
fact, the petition lor his removal was withdrawn,
and the remedy will have to be applied by the choice
1,1 an nnirer at the Pol!.
huth liivilon, Tenty-second wird Jos. De
nurur, wlu.low inspector, removed because not of
the party, aud Anthony Welsenberger appointed.
in the same precinct the petition for the removal
of Thomas McCurrerty, Heturu Inspector, was re
newed ou the ground tun ne was against tue party.
This man said he wns a TVmocrst, but felt hlnwslf
bound In gratitude to JM r. liarmer because of a
kindness done him sixteen years ago, and he could
not bring himself to vote sgsinst that gentleman.
Judge Ludlow said If this was the only reason for
tne removal, ne could not consent to strike down a,
man nnd read him out of the party, because he pos- .
sessed a sentiment of gratitude which should re
commend him to every right-thinking man. Another
reason wss assigned, wnicn was tnat ne did not
possess the confluence of the party. This was con-
naercu a goon ground, ana tne removal ordered.
Joseph Carpenter was substituted

Robinson, Itepubllcan Judge, removed because of

sion Into three, sad the Hoard of Aldermen acted
upon the basts that, no vote ever having been polled
In these divisions as they now stand, there was
nothing in the act of Assembly to govern them, and
fsve all three to the Republicans. The Judges said
hey bellevedjthe division, the First, numerically re-

W received tne annoanRement made of the deatb or

bie dune, and in the reoorda of the taourt, Is to be
fonnd no small portion of hia biography. We concur
fully in the estimate which the gentlemen of the bar
hate made of bia character, lie waa indeed a remark
able man. Ilia mind aeized whatever aubieot was
timaented to it with a vuroroua and comoreheniive crasD.
and he eeemed to know almost by intuition not only what
aro sound principles, bat which of them were applicable
to any state of facta. His thoughts were always luoid
and his reasoning was logical. It may be said ot him most
emphatically that he had in uncommon measure that
rich endowment which we denominate ! minl.
Added to tins be bad ever an instinotivo aversion to
everything diihonoruble ta everything morally wrong.
He uniformly Bought the right, and hia feelings revolted
assiDxt all injustice. No wonder, then, that he became
an eminent judge. No wonder that the confidence of
I note interested in tbe administration of justice was so
fully bestowed uponhim, and (bat his removal trout the
field of his earthly career is so much lamented.
