of establishing a series of re unions be- •

re-unions are also loath: the occasions for •
the giving aml receivinot ' of handsome tes
timonials of different kinds, which is ap
parently becoming a custom everywhere
among Firemen organizations, and they
all have a tendency to firmly cement the •
ties of friendship, harmony and kindness
formed on such meetings. The Humane Fire
Company received a very handsome testi
monial last week from the West Philadel
phia Hose Company, which we noticed at •
the time, and yesterday we • gave
an account of the reception of a similar
present by the Washington Fire Company
from the Philadelphia 1 Company.—
Next week, we are informed, that it will be
our duty to record find of another from the
Marion - Hose Company of Philadelphia.—
But of that we shall have more to say on
a future occasion. Cur task to-day is to con
clude the revisit of the Philadelphia I lose
Company. •
After the members of the Washington
Fire Company had :rested ruin the pleas
ures and festivities'of their ball on Tuesday
evening, they called upon their guests, yes
terday morning between 11 and 12 o'clock,
at "The Cooper house," whence they
escorted them to the Railroad Restaurant
of that clever, popular and excellent caterer,
Lieut. John P. Weise, where they were
entertained with an elegant lunch. Several
toasts and sentiments were exchanged 1
among which was rho following proposed ,
by Major Chas. M. Ilowell :
"Toe Philadelphia Hose, Plaeuix Hose
and Washington Engine Company—a trio
like a fable of old reversed. The fable of
old says The Chaolix Ilew out of the lire
lint our Pleenix (trio) flies in." The visi
tors then adjourned to their quarters to
meet the Reception Committee at the Wash
ington ut It o'clock to Co to Millersville.
At the appointed time, yesterday after
noon, the Committee if the Philadelphia
Hose, under the escort of their Washington
friends, paid a visit to t he Normal School
at Millersville, and sprout several hours
very pleasantly in examining the workings
of that 111SlitlIt1011. The visitors were re
ceived by Prot'. Brooks,who conducted them
through the different departments. The
school was in full operation at the time, and
an excellent opportunity was thus afforded
of witnessing the mode of instruction pur
sued. After having gone through the build
ing, the Committee and their guests finally
brought up in the chapel, to which about
two-thirds of the pupils were summoned,
for the purpose of distributing the mail mat
ter received that day, and for the transaction
of some other business, at the close of which
Prof. Brooks introduced the visitors in a
few pleasing remarks. A motion, by one
of the students, that the hospitalities of the
institution be extended to the firemen, was
unanimously carried. T. this M r. W. 11.
Woodward, of the Philadelphia llose, elo
quently responded, thanking the students
for the courtesies received, and expressing
admiration for the institution whose work
ings they had witnessed. Shortly after the
visitors retired, and early in the evening
returned to the city.
They were then invited to the residences
of John I. Hartman and Isaac ?dishier,
Esqs., where they were most hospitably
entertained by those gentlemen, who sot
out the very bust refreshments their lar
ders contained. Thence they were escorted
to the Washington Engine House, where
J. W. Johnson, Esq., (greatly to their sur
prise and astonisnment,) presented the
Philadelphians, on behalf of the Washing
ton Company, a beautiful painted portrait
of "Him whose name they bear—the Father
of his Country," enclosed in a neat gilt
frame, and also on behalf of Mr. Harry C.
Bi g gs, a photograph of his sou George, in
Continental costume, as he appeared on the
occasion of the Firemen's parade. Georgie
Biggs is a junior member of the Washing
ton Company, and there appeared to be
something of a resemblance in the pictures,
except as to the age. This picture was also
enclosed in a very pretty ornamental gilt
frame. Mr. Woodward received the gifts,
responding very feelingly and thankfully
(" in retaliation,') forthe kind and generous
treatment showered and forced upon them.
At 8 o'clock they were taken to Lawrence
R.napp's Saloon in East king street, where
they were furnished with another elegant
repast, and at 10.47 P. M. they were escort
ed to the Railroad and received the usual
farewell salutations on taking their depar
ture for home. This visit will be another
oceasiop long to be remembered, and will
furnish another era in the history of the
Washington Fire Company. —7hursday's

Woodward and the Finances
The financial editor of the Philadel
phia Leclger thus refers to Judge Wood
ward's able speech in the House a day
or two ago, on the Finances and the
payment of the Public Debt:
Judge Woodward, of this State, made a
speech in Congress last week on the subject
of the,finances cud the national debt, which
commands attention beyond its arguments,
front the position the speaker holds as a
prominent member of the party with which
he is classed. He takes issue with General
Butler, who in his arguments in favor of
paying the principal of the national debt in
depreciated legal-tenders, exempts the in
debtedness of the Government contracted in
coin, and when the basis of the currency was
specie. Judge Woodward shows that the
General is not true to the cause he espoused,
for the reason that the legal-tender act ap
plied to millions of private debts contracted
on u gold basis, which have been liquidated
in depreciated legal-tender notes. The legal
tender act, the courts have decided, applied
to all antecedent debt, public and private.
If it is right and lawful to except a public
debt contracted in gold from the operation
of the legal-tender act, the Judge asks why
should not private debts enjoy the same ex
emption? This question is pertinent to the
matter at issue, and Is of much force in get
ting back to right premises. The Supreme
Court has not yet passed on the Constitu
tionality of the legal-tender act, and the
right and power ot the Government to make
anything but gold and silver a legal tender,
wider any circumstances, has been very
gravely questioned by the legal and judi
cial mind, as well as the public generally
throughout the entire country. The oppo
sition—legal, judicial and popular—have
almost universally condemned the issue of
greenbacks as a violation of the Constitu
tion, while the party authorizing their issue
—legal and judicial—have generally justi
fied the act only as a " war measure, i ' and
rested its legality upon the basis of the
right, duty and necessity of the nation pre •
serving its own existence from extreme
peril. 'faking the most favorable view of
it, there is nojustification for any further
: issue of legal tender paper currency, for
there is now no " war necessity." Any
further issue or use of them as a conveni
ence would be a great wrong to the entire
creditor class of the community, and a sure
impoverishment of all those who are de
pendent upon fixed incomes. These things
being true, with the uncertainty of confir
!nation by the Supreme Court of the con
stitutionality of the law, does not good
policy and wisdom invite to the di , -
use of this questionable currency?
Judge Woodward says, very emphati
cally,
: that he does not believe that Con
gress uas any Constitutional power to
make greenbacks a legal-tender, and, hav
ing tilled the office of Chief Justice of this
Commonwealth, he is certainly no mean
authority; but, so far us the Courts have
decided otherwise, he felt bound to respect
the act as Constitutional; and if Congress
had the power to snake the law, it was
equally binding on all classes of credi
tors, public as well as private. Hence,
so long as two species of legal-tender,
differing widely in value, were kept up, I
he should favor the paying of all debts,
not expressly excepted, in the cheapest ;
"but believing it to be an evil example,
destructive of that good faith which should
belong to all countries, violative of the Con
stitutional rights of citizens, and not within
the delegated power of Congress, he would
vote to wipe all such stains out of the stat•
uto book. The effect of repealing that bad
legislation would be happy. It would take
away the ugly question started by Mr. Pen
dleton; because, instead of levelling the
bondholders down to other creditors,it would
level the other creditors up to the bondhold
ers. It would bring the country back to gold
and silver, the Constitutional currency."
This is sound andreasonable, and will more
directly and more expeditiously reach a
resumption of specie payments than any
other means yet suggested. We would not
have the public debt paid otherwise than
in for that was, no doubt, the spirit of
the contract when the money was borrowed,
but would have all other creditors levelled
up to those who are creditors of the Govern
ment. The sooner the greenbacks can be
withdrawn, leaving nothing but coin as
legal tender the sooner will the question of
the public debt payment be removed from
politics, and settled on a Rot and equitable
basis.
Judge Allison sent to the County Prison
for Joseph Malloy and James Keating, sen
tenced on the 15th of July last to one year's
imprisonment, proposing to make absolute
the rule for reconsideration, and thus enable
the Attorney General to test the question of
the right of the Court to remit the punish-
merit. Previous to this order the following
notice was served upon the officers of the
prison:
Office of Attorney General, Philadelphia,
Jan. IS, 181/S.—To the Board of Inspectors
of the County Prison, and to the Superin
tendent of the County Prison—Gentlemen:
You will please take notice that Joseph
Malloy and James Keating were convicted
and sentenced by the Court of Oyer and
'l'erminer and Quarter Sessions of the Peace 1
for the City and County of Philadelphia, on 1 ,
the fifteenth day of July, 1867, and that on
the same day it was ordered and adjudged
by the said Court that they pay a fine of
one cent each, and undergo an imprison
ment in separate or solitary confinement at
labor in Philadelphia County Prison for the
term of one year each, pay the costs of,
prosecution and stand committed until
this judgment Is fully complied with;
j that by virtue of said order and judgment
of said Court, said Malloy and Keating
have been since said 15th day of July, 1867,
and are now imprisoned in Philadelphia
County Prison, of which you are inspectors,
that I shall require you to retain said de
fendants in your custody until they have
i completed the full term of their said Ben-
I tence and fully complied with the judgment
of the said Court so rendered on the 15th
day of July, 1867, and that in no event shall
you discharge either of them, unless par
doned by the Governor or by virtue of an
order made by the Supreme Court of the
State upon a writ of habeas corpus being
issued, or some other proper process known
to the law, and if you do so discharge them
I by virtue of any other order or pretended
order, it will be my duty to institnte legal
proceedirgs to punish said offence.
I am, respectfully, your obedient servant,
BENJAMIN HARRIS BREWSTER,
Attorney General.
Upon this, the officers of the prison de
clined to send the prisoners to court upon a
verbal order, whereupon a writ of habeas
corpus was issued, and in accordance with
the advice of private counsel the parties
were sent to court. The two men were then
sentenced to six months in the County
Prison, thus remitting one-half of the for
mer sentence.

Juetlee In the South
As au illustration of the manner in
which military justice is administered
in the South, we give the following in
cidents of recent occurrence In that sec
tion : Some months ago Captain Schaaf,
of the United States Army, shot and
killed Colonel Shepperd, a citizen of
Alabama, at Mount Vernon Arsenal,
near Mobile. The murder was pro
nounced a most cowardly affair. He has
recently been tried by a court martial,
and sentenced to pay a fine of $3OO, and
to be imprisoned at Fort Pulaski for six
months. A few days after that occur
rence a negro committed a rape upon
the person of a young lady in North
Carolina. Her friends captured and
hung him. Five of them were arrested
and tried by a military court and sen
tenced to fifteen years' imprisonment at
hard labor. This is Radical justice.
