The true figures should be' $439,334 88, of Which $309,459 44 were for New York.

DEATH 0* A WELL-KNOWN CITIZEN.— Mr. Wm. S. Pierie for many years the Commercial editor of the North American, died this morning, at his residence on North 6th street,after an illness of several weeks. 'The deceased was about sixty-three years of age and was a native of Philadelphia. His ancestors were originally from France. Mr. Plerle was bronght up 20 mercantile pursuits, comat-house of t hbarvaing bmeen h r a e arte. d J ionT the Sims, acotemporary he ofSteph Grad. n Atter e the failure of Mr. Sims. Mr. Pitrie was Consul to Porto Rico for some time and subsequently was a successful merchantin this city. In the dour and grain trade. He then became connected with the old United States Ga zette, as its Commercial editor at the request of Hon. Joseph R. Chandler, the publisher. He acted in that capacity until the consolidation°, that paper with the .North American. when he was made the Chief Com mercial editor, a position which he filled with success and great credit up to the time of his 4leath. He was a man of strict integrity and unblemished repots:Mon. For many years he has been a member of the Baptist church, ana was a devoted Christian. He haves two daughters and two sons.N„ . Besolution4 of the awn Exchange;-At a meeting of the Corn Exchange Association held this morning, the dewh of Mr. Pier e, the Assistant Secretary. was an .noucced. The following Temente, in respect to the _memory ot the deceased were made by Mr. Charles Cummings, the President:. GENTLirIiEN: We are called for the first time to mourn the loss of one of the most 'faithful officers of this association. Our very worthy Assistant Secretary died this morning, at three o'clock. His past history, his entire life, are so well known- to us alt- that they needno words of endorsement or eulogy from me. It is our duty to take appropriate notice of all such events, and. I presume that resolutions have been pre pared to that effect. Mr. 8. iv. Winslow said: . • .afr. President: I resume there is no one within the hearing of my voice who was more intimately ac qtukinteci with Mr. _Petrie than myself. I have met him datly_for twenty-one years past.. Daring all that time his life was one of worthy deeds and kindly acts. lam sure, sir; that the announcement of his death will occa sion no greater anguish in any heart than in mine. Mr. Pierie commenced mercantile life forty years ago. He first entered a counting house in 1824. Subsequently he became a merchant. Unfortunately, the vessel, con. taming all his fortune, was wrecked, and with it his hopes of success. In 1845 he became connected with the Veiled States Gazette, under Joseph It. Chandler. When the Gaz , lle was sold to the present proprietors, he was retained in his position, as part of the special contract. I feel, air, that I cannot command proper language to ekpress my feelings, at the loss of so worthy a gentle xuart. and would therefore respectfully submit tae fol lowing preamble and resolutions: Whereas, It has been the will of an inscrutable PrON't Bence to remove from our midst Mr. Wm. S. Pieria, the late assistant secretary of the Board of Managers Of this association; and, Whereas It is eminently proper that we should 'Pace upon record some appro propriate exprest-lon of our recognition and appre clatiOn of hts services and character; therefore Resolved, That the announcement of the demise of Mr..Ylerle, (however anticipated by his long and severe aliness,)has awakened within our bosoms feelings of profound grief; and as his high moral tone, his valua ble labors in the scollection of statistical information, his assiduity in the performance of all his duties, and his unswerving fidelity to the Interests of this institu tion. have secured for him our unqualified esteem and respect, and in his decease, society at large has lost a valuable and useful member. Resolved, Tbat a committee of three be appointed to tender his bereaved family our sympathy in their deep affliction; that the members of this Association attend ma funeral; and that the proceedings of the meeting be entered upon the minutes. The Preamble and Resolutions were unanimously adopted, and S. N. Winslow, Joseph S, Perot and Job 8. Ivins were appointed the committee. MURDEROUS ASSAULT UPON A POLICE ar evening, between eight and nine o'clock, officer-Samuel Carmichael. of the Second District, while patrollng his beat,was attacked by a gang of ruf fians on South street below Tenth. It seems that Car michael assisted in the arrest of a youn g _ man named William Buck; for drunkenness and -disorderly con disci. a couple of-nights ago. Last evening Back. who was in company with others, stepped up to the officer And said "Sam what did yen sawed me for?" Without waiting for a reply, the officer was struck upon the head:with a two-poundiweight: and fell seneeless:to the Sidewalk. He was then badly beaten. He received three cuts on the back of the head, and his jaw is be. lieved to have been fractured. He was conveyed to his home. Buck was;subsequently arrested byfiergeant Neff and officer McAfee. and,was identified by Carmi obael as his assailant. He had a hearing this morning before Alderman Tittermary, and was committed' to await the result of the injuries inflicted. SERIOUS STABBING.—A German named Lords Ludy, was stabbed lastevening in a public house at Randolph and Jefferson streets. It seems that on Saturday night last Ludy had a difficulty with a.nother German, named Sohn Seher. Last evening the 'alter cation. was renewed. From words the parties came to blows. Seher is alleged to have drawn a large wool knife and stabbed Ludy in four places—twice upon the shoulder end twice under the shoulder blade. Ludy was conveyed to a house On Randolph street, and had bia wounds dressed, but his !Merles were of such a na ture that the pbyecian would not permit his removal. t3eber was arrested by Sergeant Eisner and Officer. Houser, and this morning was arraigned before Aid. Shoemaker. Ludy_ was unable tillappear and testify. and the defendant was committed for a farther hear ing. The wounded man resides atTwentleth and ter atreets,and his allegedassallant on Randolph street, near Jefferson. THE VAGRANT DETECTIVE ASSAULTED.— . A one legged man named Alexander Rosa was ar rested yesterday at Third and Race streets, by Vagrant Detective Reeder, for begging. He had a cane and a crutch, and with teem he turned upon and vigorously assaulted the officer. Tha latter bad lone arm disabled and his - hand "badly injured, while his assailant broke both of his weapons. Ross is repre segonted to be a bad fellow. He was arrested some years a tor horse stealing. At that time another chase he attempted to leap from one house to when he fell and injured his leg so badly that amputation was rendered necessary, He has recently , been soliciting alms on the grouhd of being a wounded soldier. After shearing before Alderman Toland, Ross was commit- fed in default of 11,200 bail to answer at Court.

Corral' OF COMMON Plass—President Judge Allison and Judge Peirce.—McKinley et al. vs. The City of PhiLadelnhia, Morton McMichael. Mayor, and Joseph R. Lyndali. Controller of the City. Opinion of the Court by Alit. on, P. J. The complainants who are owners errata estate and tax payers,a.sk an injunction to restrain the execu tion of two several agreements entered into by the Mayor. on behalf of tne City of Philadelphi. ' fur the cleansing of thestreets of the city for a period of five years, under an ordinance passed the -- day of March, 1866. The relief asked is threefold : First. That said ordinance may be declared to be an lawiul. Secrnd. That the Mayor be enjoined from the execu tion of said contracts, and be required not to affix the corporate seal yth e thereto. a rr A osepyndan Controller of the city, be enjoined from countersigning any warrant for the payment of moneys r• quired by the terms of any contract made in pursuance of the aforsald or dinance. The 26th a eetion of the act of 1658 requires that all goods. merchandise. and any article of any kind, and tabor and service required for the city of Philadelphia, in any department thereof, shall be purchased, and contracted for only in such manner as shalt be pre scribed by ordinance: and for that purpose the Corni ces are reqeired to direct by ordinance the manner and time of making the yearly estimates b. the seve rel. departments of the said city, and of receiving sealed proposals for such supplies as aforesaid, which proposals shall be preceded by advertisement, and no contract shall be awarded to any but the lowest bid der, who shall give tt e required security therefor. In the case of Comley et. al. vs. the City -2 Philadel phia Iteperts, 194—this section of the act was com mented on in considering the question raised by the bill filed by the complainants in that case. The object of the law, it was said, was to guard against corruption and tavoriteism in the contracts whicn the city of ne cessity is required to make from year to year, for its supplies of tabor and service as well as of various kinds of personal property of whicn it is a large consumer. The guards thus sought to be thrown around the public treasury, if established and carried Into et. feet, as contemplated by the act, would doubtless cm , rest abuses charged to have been carried on to an ex tent which called for reform In the disbursements of the moneys of the city. The Court farther says—a broad and liberal construction should to given to an eet whose provisions are o so wholesome a charactee and if possible it should be enforced, not only by its letter, but also in accordance with its reason and spirit . The contracts new sought to be restrained, both as to their execution and operation, we hold are covered by the requirements of the act of 1856. They stipulated for the furnishing of supplies of labor and service. which are required to be performed for a department of the city of Philadelphia; and they are of such a character, that their want is an annually recurring want, and therefore covered by the direction of the law. thatthey sheathe awarded after an oppertunity shall have been afforded tobidders to put in sealedpro posals for the same, which proeosals shall be preceded by advertisement, and the contract by the terms of the law must be awarded to the lowest bidder, It is attempted to be set up for answer to this conclu- sion, that the city has complied with the directions of the act, by the ordinance of March —.1866, butt he ob jection to this answer is that the ordinance does not provide for a yearly estimate by the Department of Streets and Highways, or by the Street Cleaning De partment of the city, for the furnishing of this neces sary supply of labor and service, which can under no circumstances be dispensed with for a single year, and is therefore capable of being anticipated as an essen tial and annual want of the city, for which either de partment named can make a yearly estimate, and this is peremptori y required to be done. But thisobjectlon is equally strong. that there Is no pretense even of a compliance with the duty enjoined be the act to advertise for proposals for the furnishing ofauch a supply of labor and service. and that upon an opportunity thus offered for competion,the contract has been awarded to the lowest bidder. Nor is it. set up for answer to the prayer of the bill, that competi tion for the cleansing of the streets was afforded to any elle by advertisement or otherwise. The ordinauce of March 1866, empowers the Mayor to enter into con tracts with competent persons for the removal of-all dirt etc, from the streets ror five years, at a rate of charge not exceeding ninety-five thot9and dollars per annum. The whole matter of the contract subject, to the re striction contained in the ordinance, is referred to the judgment and diecretion of the Mayor. It would be difficult to conceive of amore palpable disregard of the clear and positive commandof the act of 1856. Nor is it a sufficient answer to say, that this discretion has been honestly and:judiciously exercised: this no one thioks of calling in question... The confidence reposed by Councils in the Mayor is no. more than a just tri bute to his well established character for Integrtty and ability, but this only makes a departure from the pro tectlon which Is sought to be thrown around the public Interests the more dangerous as a precedent, and re quires net° do that which, under the circumstances,we regret to be compelled to perform. The impel', ance of prompt provision for the cleans ing of the highways of the city, in view of the near ap proach of warm weather, of the now objectionable con. union of many:of our streets!, and of the impending cloud which has been.drawing near to us, charged with pestilence and with death, are most serious and im portant considerations. to which we are not insensible. But our duty yet remains—to declare the law as we be lleve and tmderstand it to be, and - as it has been in voked at our hands, We have no other alternative allowed tens but to grant theje:anction prayed for.
