    GENERAL HANCOCK AT INDEPEN
PENCE HALL. j
fiPEECH oFMAYOBHENRY andbeply of
SPEECH JHEGEHEBAL.
Trfalor General Winfield S. Hancock. ..had a
•nnbUc reception yesterday afternoon in Indepen
fl .n in accordance With a recent resolution
e intv Councilß. The'reception took place at
t.wo o’clock. The members of Council
entered the HaUatthat time, and arranged them
selves in asemi-circle around the apartment, and
• toe (Languished General took a position m
front oflhe Statue of "Washington. . . i
Mayor Henry then addressed the hero as follows:
7 mayokhekbv s speech. .; -
, Tn behalf of the people of Phila
. V^,'in 4r i as one of whom they
’ S el ?reSieoially to honor. The congratulations
wmto by ihTdation of the City Councils, yon
have come hither to receive, are prompted by the
applause and gratitude that conspicous and sac
resslul military deeds have won for yon in the
Annular regard. Nowhere can those congratnla
fauons be more justly tendered- thin in your
native State, whose soil you have aided to redeem
from an invading foe; and in no other place
can toe plaudits "or your countrymen be so
■fitl v accepted as in toe Hall from which
nated that grandest of human charmra. Whose
imDerishable principles yonr sword has helped to
•vindicate and maintain. Standing here among
memorials of the' revered patriots whose fearless
dMlaration of man’s rights was a solemn protest
against the wrongs of ages, we may be permitted
in reioice that no dark foreshadows of present
events clouded the splendor of those truths to
which they pointed ai the lode-stars of human
progress It is well that the fervor of their illus
trious labors was not chilled by any foresight of to
dav when the land of their devotion resounds
with the ceaseless clash of arms, whose deadly
conflicts reverberate through distant homes, even
whilst the life of husband, son or brother, is
ebbing on the battle-field. And yet the wisdom, \
zeal and patriotism that, within this Hall, shaped
toe destinies of our Bepnblic, speak to ns amid
existing strife, toe assurance that no disloyalty
shall overthrow their glorious work; that no
rebellion can prevail against its onward course.
Three years of continuous warfare have
called forth much ot skill and gallantry that
in times of peace must have remained un
proven. Among others whose achievements
will have place in history, yonr successful career
has drawn to yon the admiration and confidence
of yonr fellow-citizens, and many have enrolled
themselves in the corps which you command, that
under your leadership they may join in toe efforts
yet needed to crash a waning rebellion. Where ver
yon shall be called to protect or to advance our
nation’s standard, you will be attended by the
earnest gaze and invoking blessings of those who,
in the distinguished services you have already
rendered, find the presage of a future brilliant
with well-earned and with well-paidhonors.
GBXKUAL HANCOCK’S AIIDEE3S.
General Hancock replied as follows:
Mr. Mayor and Gentlemen of the Councils of Phila
delphia : I feel highly honored by this act of cour
tesy of the municipal authorities of this great city.
Although not a citizofi. of Philadelphia, I was born
within twenty miles of its line and I feel the more
proud of yonr notice because I am honored as it
, were, in my own county. It has been my good for
tune to have been activelyengaged as participator in
endeavoringto put down this rebellion by military
force, since it first raised its wicked hands. I Hope
to be permitted still to give it blows, and to ba en
gaged in so doing until the softer reign of peace
again smiles over our beloved land, and that I
may live long enough to see the integrity of. our
country and institutions preserved. That is the
main rointto he looked to. This once secured, and
toe authority of out Government Over every foot
of territory re-established, we may reasonably
predict a long peace during which onr prosperity
will be unrivaled. This will be the. last great
drama of war in onr time on onr soil, if that res nit
is obtained. What grievances' wilt- require re
dressing in toe cases of unfriendly foreign govern
ments will not then be difficult to adjust. Our
moral force will then readily do for us what the
force of arms is doing now. We are now flighting
the battle of republican institutions. • Tms war
happily closed, they will ha assured This is es
sentially the poor man’s war, no matter what
classes are or may be engaged in it. A higher de
gree of personal liberty will be assured to him by
its success than can he secured to him by any
constitution that can be written hereafter. ,It is
toe duty of every such man, having at heart the
•welfare and prosperity of himself and his children
to do all that he can to insure a firm and speedy
peace. It may well be believed that this year
will witness toe last act ot this great rebellion.
Now, therefore, is the time for every one to devote
his energies for a while to the service of his coun
try. It may not be long tbat his services will be
required. It will be but for a short time, if every
one lends a helping hand. If there are not patriots
.enough , left to vindicate this Government, the
country does not deserve the liberal institutions
With which it has been blessed. Recollect, if the
attempt to re-establish the supremacy of the Gov
ernment fails, the rebellion will succeed!
These men will feel that they have lost their
birthright tor want of energy and patriotic spirit
Would to God that only those would suffer who
were thecause of such a failure; but future gene
rations will rise up against ns as well as the de
scendants of those who have failed their country
in this her hour of need. Let us do oar part, each
and all, and we will then have a right to expect
success. Without such action we do not de
serve it. •
I have had many Philadelphia soldiers under
my command. They nave done their duty, and
have made great sacrifices for their country, anl
for you, without murmuring; they are willing to
do so still, tor they wish to gain the highest honors
by being ih their country’s service when the rebel
lion dies. They only aslc yon to make them strong,
formidable; you can readily do so. You have rea
son to be proud of your Philadelphia soldiers; I
say this from personal observation.
You may not know this fact, hut it is neverthe
less true, that at Gettysburg, the grand historic
battle of this war, which probably did more than
any other recent event to unite our people m favor
of the prosecution of the war, in the last grand
descent made by the hosts of the enemy on our
lines.it was reserved to the Philadelphia regiments
10 receive the first clash and shock of battle. They
went down before the avalanche because their
numbers were too weak- to resist it. They were
avenged, however, by : their comrades in the
second lint*. Let me ask yon now to form a second
line, and avenge those heroes who have fallen br
the ioe.
Citizens of Philadelphia: You have honored me
and you have 1 honored my troops, and you have
given tomy children a remembrance of which they
may justly be proud. I thank you,and in so doing
it is with a grateful heart
The General then shook each member of Conncil
by the hand, and then those upon the oatsideof
the Hall, of whom there were a great number, were
Admitted and went through the same ceremony.

BETTER WOBKFOB WOMEN.
Af:er all the fine speeches made at the Mutual
A dmiratxon meeting upon the anniversary of this or
that reformatory association, there are some obtuse
enough not to perceive the great progress the
world has made in tbe right direction in tbe last
twenty or thirty years. In the case of women
especially,it is extremely difficult to find that buy
firactical good has resulted, to the sex from the
abors of the short-petticoated and long bearded
reformers of women* s mental and political condi
tion. To a superficial observer it woald seem that
in ignoring tne industrial rights ot women these
autocrats had forgotten or despised the foundation
- atones of the edifice which they sought to rear,
andheuce the toppling overof the imposing struc
ture which has crushed and maimed the builders.
Radical “Woman’s Rights, ** encountered the
cold shoulder from many who would have ex

the charge. A pretty rebuke for ail penurious
employers. ■ " .
The Ledger is out in au article calling upon
women to aid by'purse.and influence the raising of
bounties to.drattin the City. "Women have not been
backward in good works since the commencement'
oftoe'war. In camp, in field, in hospital, every
where, when woman’s labor of womans sym
pathy has been needed, it has; been lavishly and
waßtefully given,' and the return that has been
made for Ill's eeir-sacrifice and uevotioniias been
scantfyid of small account. 1 : ;;
They are still beingdriven to crime and starva
tion by a dearth of paying work. Wives,’ mothers
and sisters of soldiers, deprived of those who have 1
aided them in their struggle for subsistence, are
filling the prieojis and almshouses, and it seems
. nobody’s business to Took into the causes of this
shame and misery. . We age told continually of the
scarcity of woikmen in every department of labor,
but none suggests that women shall take the pdsi
tions (made vacant by the war) in printing offices,’
telegraph offices, public libraries, watchmaking
and engraving establishments, in po3t offices, gro
cery stores, and the like. Boys are filling mens’
situations at mens’ wages, but none seem humane
enough to take women into positions which they
could fill with propriety and profit.
Boom, more room, in the world’s .workshop, is
what is needed for woman, leave to live honestly
and completely by their own exertions. Take
them from basements and attics, put them’ in
offices, counting rooms, gardens, fieldE, give them
a living price fir their work that they will not be
idle dependents, tut self respecting, nsefnl human
beiDgs.' No doubt that home is the most desirable*'
place for women and home duties the most accept- ’
able, hut there are thousands in every large city
Who" have no homes save such as they must earn
for themselves, and how destitute and miserable
a large number of these are can be learned only
from prison agents and guardians of the poor.

. - THE “EE D’ITAI.IA.”
. This iron-clad sea-going frigate having been
put in complete repair since her unfortunate
grounding near New York, made her second
trial trip on the 15th inst., which was as great
a success as the most sanguine could wish.
The behavior of the ship and the working of
the machinery were most admirable. She was
built for the Italian Government at a ’cost of
$1,500,000, and is the first entirely iron-clad
sea-going frigate ever built in this country.
She is 280 feet long, 58 feet beam, and over
■6,000 tons burden. She is armored with
plates averaging 4 J inches in thickness. Her
steam machinery is of the most powerful kind,
was builtat the Novelty "Works, and consists of
two horizontal back-acting engines of 1,425
horse power each, 84-inch • cylinders and
45-inch stroke. She has slide valves worked
by linked motions, with an independent cut-ofF
on the back driven by a separate eccentric.
She has six of Martin’s vertical tube boilers,
with a total of GOO square feet of grate surface.
The screw is 19 feet diameter, 30 feet pitch,
two-bladed aud so arranged as to be capable of
hoisting when the ship is under sail alone.
This trial was not so much for testing her
speed as to get her in complete working order
previous to crossing the Atlantic. She carried
all her crew and stores, 100 tons of cable more
than her complement, spare rigging, and a
spare screy weighing over 30,000 pounds.
The ship was welf down, drawing about 23 feet
on an even keel. With this great draft, a
strong ebb tide a stiff breeze dead-ahead, she
easily make 12 knots an hour, which is cer
tainly the fastest time ever made by an iron
clad.
• Heath bt Bi-rntno.— On Tuesday night the
clothing of Mrs. Everhart, wife of George
Everhart, of Baltimore, caught fire, and she
sustained such injuries as to cause her death
early the following morning. Mrs. Everhart
was about fifty years of age. She had been
left alone by a daughter in the front parlor,
reading, a newspaper, The supposition was
that the paper had by some means taken fire,
hut she, in a lucid moment, said that her dress
had canght through means of her hoops.

INFLAMMATION OF THE KIDNEYS.
CATARRH OF THE
BLADDER.
STRANGURY.
For these diseases it is truly a sovereign remedy,
and too much cannot be said in its praise. A
s Ingle dose has been b howl to remove the most ur
gent symptoms.
Arc you troubled tfrith that distressing 'pain in
the small'of the back and through the hips! ' A
teaspoonfol aday of the Constitution Water will
relieve yon like magic.
PHYSICIANS
Have long since given np the use of bnchu, cubebs
>nd juniper in the treatment of the diseases, and
only use them for the want of a better remedy
CONSTITUTION WATER
has proved itself equal to the task that has e
volved upon it*
DIUERTIOS ✓
Irritate and drench the kidneys, and by constant
use soon lead to chronic degeneration and continued
disease. ,
We present the Constitution Water to the public
with the conviction that it has no equal in relieving
the class or disease* for which it has been found so
eminently successful for curing, and we trust that
we shall be rewarded for our efforts iu placing so
valuable in a form to meet the require
ments pf patient and physician. /
IN DYSMENOBRHCEA, OR FAINFUTT MEN
STRUATION; AND MENORRHAGIA,
Both diseases arising: from a faulty secretion ol
the menstrual fluid—in case of being too tittle, and
accompanied by severe pain, and ibe other a too
proluse secretion, which will be speedily cored by
the Constitution Water.
The disease known as FALLING- OF THE
WOMB, which is the result of a relaxation of the
ligaments of that organ, and is known by a sense
of heaviness and dragging pains in the back and
sides, and at times accompanied by sharp, land*
nating or shooting pirns through uxe parts, will,
in all cases, be cured by this medicine.
There is another class of symptoms arising from
IRRITATION OF THE WOMB, which physi
ciana. call nervousness, which word covers up
much ignorance, and in nine cases ont of ten the
doctor does r.otreally know whether the symptoms
are the disease or the disease the symptoms. We
only enumerate them here I speak more
particularly of Gold Feet, Palpitation of the
Heart, Impaired Memory, Wakefulness, Flashes
of Heat, Languor, Lassitude and* Dimness of
Vision.
SUPPRESSED MENSTRUATION,
Which in the unmanned female is a constantly re
curring disease, and through neglect the seeds of
more grave and dangerous maladies are the result;
and as month alter month passes without an effort
being made to assist nature, the suppression be
comes chronic, the patient gradually loses her ap
petite, the bowels are constipated, night sweats
come on, and ccTUtnaptfon finally ends her career

DjLXVn.es, Pa., June 2, 1562.
Dr. Wm. H. Gregg—Dear Sir: In February,
1061, I was afflicted with sugar diabeies, and for
five months I passed more than two gallons of
water, in twenty-iour hours. 'I was obliged to get
up as often as ten or twelve times during the night,
and in five months I lost about fifty pounds in
weight. During the month of July, 1661, I pro
two bottles of Constitution Water,, and in
'two days after using it I experienced relief and
after taking two bottles I was entirely cured; soon
after regaining my usual good health.
Tours truly, J. V. L. DEWITT. ,
Boston Cornkks, N. Y.» Dec. 27, 1881.
Wm. H. Gregg & Co. —Gents—l freely give yon
liberty to make use of the following Certificate of
the.Talue of Constitution Water, which I can re
commend in the highest manner: >
My wife was attacked with pain in the
shoulders, whole length of the back, and in her
limbs, with. Palpitation the Ixeart and Irritation
vf (Ac Bladder. I called a physician, who at
. tended her three mouths, when he left her worse
than he had found her. I then employed one of
the best physicians I could find, who attended her
lor about nine months, and while she*was under
nis care she did not suffer quite as much pain.
He finally gave her’ up and said, her case was tn
curablc* * 4 For, ** said he, ** i she has such
a combination of complaints, that medicijus given for
one operates against so) rte o her of her difficulties.
About this tune she commenced Che use of the
Constitution Watbb, and,to onr utter astonish
ment, almost the first dose seemed to have the de- •
sired effect, and she kept on improving rapidly
under its treatment, and now superintends entirely
her domestic affairs. She has not taken any or the
Constitution Water for about four weeks, and
we are happy to say that it has produced a perma
nent cure. WIS.M. VAN BENSCHOTEN.
