-Dectfnllv shewetb, That m 186*2 the citizens ‘of
Philadelphia and New Jersey memorialized Coun
cils on the subject of the s tie of Co~d Wo>d. and'
submitted a memo? lal from the Legislature of New
jersey also a statement of tue prices of wood paid
by the renters of the public wharves andthe prices
of the same to consumers, whica pape.a are sub
mitted herewith, shewing that a jus mono
poly existed, to the great injury of producers and
consumers, and that cord wood was without au
Inspector or Measurer to do justice between the
seller and purchaser, almough the offi:e-df Wood
Corder had been created by the Legislature and
confirmed by repeated acts This subject and the
papers were submitted to a Joiot Committee ot
Councils, who made a unanimous report in favor
of the application and r commanded the passage o;
an ordinance granting certain public wharves on
the Delaware and Schuylkiirfor the reception aud
sale of cord wood, and appointing . orders to su
perintend th A same, as upon n-f-rerce to the journal
of Common Council 1862, appendix, No 121, page
$53, will more fully appear
The Select Connell on the 16th of April, iS6i,
pasted the accompanying bill at.d sent it t j Com
mon Council, who, on the 14th of May. 1563, re
tired it to a committee of three—this committee
never made a report, and thus theo jectof the me
morialists was defeated Th*y would further state
that the evils complained of have greatly iucreased
the present year, and that they are intolerable.
They submit the following facts: The low prices
allowedly the renters lor wood,have not paid the
owners the actual expenses of cutting, carting and
freighting to the city, have prevented wood from
being cut in New Jersey, Delaware and Maryland,
and have driven the ves»t* Is out of the trade, thus
lesser ing the supply of this necessary of life. In
June last good oak wooo was seLiing on the laad
ings in Cape May county, at S 3 OU p*»r cord, the
freight being SI 00 per cord, while the renters sold
it here ior S 7 00 to S 3 00 per cord. This tall wood
was only ?4 iK) in New Jersey, aud was landed
here for S 5 50 to 86 00. which was all the renters
allowed for it, while they sold ii to the consumers '
at from 88 50 tc Sll 00 per cord for common Oak or
Pine. This monopoly falls hard upon the poorer
classes who are the principal consumers of wood,
and the Board oi Guardians have to pay these ex
travagant prices; The income of the city will be
greatly increased by the tax on the woodaner pay
ing the corders 1 salaries. In 1962 the Board of
Guardians purchased from parties in New Jersey
255 cords Oak wood, at S 3 Su per cord, landed at
the Almshouse wharf, while they hat to pay the
Tenters from §5 00 to 86 50 per cord for wood de
livered to the poor in £s and #s. Th* Trustees of
the Gas Works have purchased annually, for
several years, 2.500 to 3,000 cords Pine wood lrom
producers, ceiivered on the Schuylkill at the
Works, at prices much less than the sales of the
renters to the Guardians, Girard Trust Benevolent
Institutions and individuals. The memorialist*
ask tha passage of the ordinance herewith.

HABBisBtmG, March 19.—1 n accordance with
« J^ e joint resolution accepting an invitation ea
'tended to the Legislature of Pennsylvania by the
President and Directors of the Pennsylvania Ag
ricultural Society to visit their institution, situated
near Bellefonte, Pennsylvania, a considerable
number of the members of both Houses, together
. ynth invited guests, left Harrisburg in a special
train on Thursday afternoon last, at 2 30 P. ftL
Among those on the train were, the Hon. Eli
olifer, Secretary of the Commonwealth; Hon.
■lsaac Sleiiker. Auditor-General, and A. L. Rus
sell Adjutant-General of the State.
' After a pleasant ride through the JuniataValley,
the party arrived at their destination about 10.30
P. M. The train was about an hoar behind time,
caused by the engine of a freight train running off
the track some distance from Bellefbnte. Upon
crossing at the latter place the party was met by
the citizens, who very kindly offered their houses
for the entertainment of the visitors. Ail the
hotels in town were free to those who*'wished ac
commodation; this action being taken through the
kindness of'the Board of Trustees of the Pennsyl
vania Agricultural College. The largest hotel was
destroyed by fire a short time since.
On Friday morning the party was conveyed to
the College in carriages, furnished by the citizens
df the town and surrounding country. The College
is situated about ten miles from Bellefonte, the
Toad leading thereto rather rough and hilly.
Upon arriving at the building the guests were
welcomed ny the officers of tae College,

The United States Christian Commission has
seized the present golden opportunity of rest for
the Army to extend its werfc for the good of the
Soldiers.
STATIONS hare been mnltiphed, each 'with its
chapel and store tents, free writing tables, and
clothing, comforts and reading matter for gnu
tuitoos distribution.
VOLUNTARY DELEGATES, in numbers
greater than ever before, have been sent to preach
the Gospel at the stations and in regiments, bat
teries and camps without Chaplains, distribute
reading matter and stores, and labor for the good
of the Soldiers.-
A PERMANENT FIELD AGENCY has been
sufficiently extended to establish stations and
superintend the work.
THE BLESSING OF GOD rests signally on all
parts of the work. Many thousands have been
cheered, benefited and saved. Still a large part
of the Army remains nnreached, and double the
number, both of stations and delegates, are needed
to meet the urgent demand tor them.
The Christian Commission offers to the people a
perfectly reliable and wonderfully economical
channel to reach the entire army in all its various
fields. The money given goes in full measure. In
benefits for body and soul, directly to the Soldiers:
and Btores also, immediately from the hands of
delegates from home, who add words and deeds of
kindness to the gifts when bestowed.
Let the people give the Money and Stores, and
the work will be done. _ „.
The large corps of Delegates now in the field
will serve as a grand corps of relief when the
armies shall move and battles be fought, and the
greater their number the more prompt and effec
tive will be the relief they Fhall render.
Let not the present work languish. 'Wait not
for the cry of the wounded and dying before pro
