CITY BIILLETIR: The Philadelphia Gas Wierks.‘ The Committee of Select Council ap pointed to examine into the' affairs of the Philadelphia Gas Works, held an adjourned meeting last evening, Cola Page presiding. Col. Page stated that he had received no an ,tewer from the Trustees to the communica •.tion of the 30th of May. Mr. John Roberts, Foreman of the First 'Ward Works was present, and testified as follows: Have been foreman about six years; at the present time we have from 325 to 350 men employed at the Point Breeze Works; the "stokers" are required to • be skilled; the result of employing unskilled labor would be to injure the materials and work; in order to make ,good coke it is necessary for the coal to be fully car bonized ; _ since January, 1865, we have lied;the requisite amount of skilled "labor;"' early in 1865 we discharged with one or two exeeptions, all who were not of the same po litical party as the majority of the Trustees; this was done at the order of the Engineer.. The places were filled by taking "helpers," • .and making them "stokers," and employing new hands as "helpers;" this did not require, tie to pay men to instruct the "helpers." the _"helpers" receive $2 15 per day; , the "sto kers" receive $2 25 per day; never heard of a man receiving pay for services net fen tiered, except' when he has been injured at the works; from 4.1 to 4 cubic feet is the av erage for a pound bf coal; there can he a leak age of gas after it is put into, the holder; gas "may leak at the retort or in' the pump; we had but one "blow" of gas in 1866, and lost about 60,000 cubic feet of gas; it was con aidered to be the result of carelessness and Altman was discharged; it' was one of the eld hands; in 1864 the men at the works in the First Ward stood two-third Democrats. and one-third Rephbliaan, in 1864 Mr. Mc- CreadY efficient foreman, wasdis charged by Mr. Stewart, their Engineer, as be alleged, for political cause; Mr. Stewart was a Democrat and Mr. McCready a Re -publican. the break in the - holder occurred an 1864. I . don't know of a return of a less ;amount of coal 'than ;that actually Con _Armed in order to cover up the. deficiencies in the yield; such a thing could.have been ;done without my knowledge; the aver age, consumption of coal per day is now ; about gone hundred tons; in the winter: we use more; the exact heat _required in the manufacture of gas:is ascer tained through practice; that is the reason why skilled labor is required; iron retorts will last, on an average, seven months; we bave had some that gave out in eleven days; the worst retorts we had were received in 1864 and 1865; Stilleman it- Ellis furnished retorts in May, 1865, and they suffered the loss; I saw the Cameron coal; tested it, and its average yield was about 4.17; in combi nation with other coal the yield was 4.60; the greatest yieldwith Cameron coal alone alone was 4.38 ; the highest of Penn and Westmoreland, on section- work is 5 ; the average last month was 4.33, with a portion of Cameron coal used; would -prefer the Penn and Westmoreland to the Cameron; have had something less than 1,000 tons of the Cameron coal; so far as the works are concerned. I thi k they are as well managed as ever before; I mean the Point Breeze Works; I cannot explain how it is that there was a loss, bat getting all -our bad retorts in 1865 it shows a bad exhi bit; in 1862 the average yield was 4.39, while in 1865 it was 4.08 to the pound; I put thiti entirely upon the defective retorts; unskilled labor and want of management had nothing to do with it; the men now employed are men of experience, some of them have been engaged over six years. At the close of Mr. Roberts' examination, a sub-committee of two was appointed to examine the books. The Committee adjourned until Friday evening next. - The Reception of the State Flags. After the close of our report of the pro ceedings of the General Committee on Re ception of the State Flags yesterday, the Committee on Invitation reported that in vitations be extended to the following bodies: 1. Survivors of the war with Mexico. 2. The officers of the Christian and Sani tary Commissions. 3. Officers of railroads, which have fur nished free transportation for the Color Guards. 4. The Weccacoe Legion. A resolution was' offered by Col. Ellma lier, and adopted, stating that the resolution adopted at a previous meeting in regard to ciEcers and men appearing in uniform was of designed to be compalsotT, but intended as a request to appear in uniform as far as practicable. • The Chairman made a motion which was agreed to, that the committee telegraph to General Negley, directing him is forward • immediately to General Jordan,..at Harris . burg .the tickets of transportation now in his possession, and that Colonel Harrison and tgeneral Jordan be constituted a committee - to meet atHarrisburg in regard to their dis tribution.

"Rxrset.wierioN OF .A ROBBEERL—Recorder Xtten had before him, yesterday afternoon, Charles Roehl, hoop-skirt manufacturer, at Xfo. 548 North Second street, who was charged with fraudulently secreting his ..Twoperty r with intent to cheat-and defraud Moen & Co. out, of V.,700, and also by the " - Arm of Osborn 46 Cheeseman, of New York, *with defrauding them out of $2,391 53. It was in evidence that goods purchased by - defendant of the plaintiffs were sold by him at much less than he paid-for, them., •Anteil Hundermark,employed by . Mr. Roehl as a porter, testied that on Monday, 'June 4th, Roehl gave him a bogus package containing papers of no value, telling , him to put it in his pocket. Roehl then called down some girls, and their presence counted out the sum stated, 85,765, saying to witness '`Take this to. bank and get me checks on New York for it," calling atten tion of the girls to the- fact. After they had • left the room he placed the . money in his pocket and gave the bogus package to wit .. nese, who threw it into the Delaware. Wit , MESS then went back to the store, and in the presence of the girls said he had had his Pocket Picked. Hundermark, at ,the 'sug gestion of Roehl, left information at the •Mayor's office, that,he had been robbed of the money. After this Roehl took witness before a magistrate, :where he made an air]. • davit to the effect that his .pocket had been actually picked. The defendant said he had done so, but notwithstanding, he intended to pay his creditors. The case was contin • - .bed until Friday next, at three o'clock, the defendant having been committed in de fault of $5,000 bail. ; DOMESTIC MAMEETS.—Prices in market this morning were as follows : Apples, 35 to 45c. per half peck; asparagus, 10 to 20c. per, bunch; beets, 15 to 200, per henpeck; butter, 35 to 45e. per pound; carrots 20 to 25c. per henpeck; chickens, 23 to 30c. per pound; ; cherries, 30 to 40c. per pound; cran berries, 15 to goo. per guart; eggs, 26 to 30c. per dozen; gooseberries, 22 to 25c. per quart; lard, 20 to 23c." per pound; roast beef; 23 to M. per pound; sirloin steaks, 33 to 40c., per pound, mutton, 12 t 02,50. per pound; onions, 20 t0.30c. per half peck, pork;ls to 22c. per pound; peas, 45 to 55e. per half peek; pota (me, 25 to Mc. per half peek; otrawberries, 30 to 45e, per quart, and veal, 10 to 20e. per potuid, , NEW . TABLISHMENT, The westward march of improvement still progresses; banks, news paper offices and business establishments generally are being moved up Chestnutand other streets every day. One of the latest improvements of this character is, the new establishment of the well known jeweler, Mr. J. T. Gallagher, formerly of Bailey & Co.,at the corner of Chestnut and Thirteenth streets. We stepped into this beautiful store yesterday afternoon, and were most grati fied with an examination of the'- exquisite stock of jewelry, silver ware,&c., displayed. Among other articles we noticed a clock, just received from Paris, of absolutely ppr feet make, and with a_very peculiar and .uri;. teresting escapement. 4 We also saw a Seyres:ohinatable,a relic of the Frenchrevo- Intion of the last century.. Its top contains accurate portraits of the royal family gov erning Prance at that era, and, both from its beauty and historical interest, is of great value. Mr. Gallagher is prepared to :attend to watch-making and repairing, &a, and will always keep on.band a splendid stock of the choicest and most fashionable jewelry, silver ware, watches, &c. MOUNTAIN Homan, CRESSON SPRINOS.P.A. —Now that our city residents are about se lecting a place to spend the summer months' we would direct their . attention to that de-• lightful spot • on the top of the Allegheny, mountains, known as Cresson Springs. Its elevation,its cold spring and mineral waters, its mountain scenery,and above all, its pure air, render it one of the most desirable sum mer resorts in the country. The house is kept now, and has been for several years 'past, by that experienced and gentlemanly landlord, Mr. GeorgseW. Mullin, whose at tention to the comfort of his guests is a mat ter of comment among all who have ever spent a summer at Cresson. We learn that many improvements have been made in the place since last season, thus adding to its attractions. It can be reached by all the through trains on the Pennsylvania Rail road, thus rendering it easy of access. Per sons desiring to procure accommodations at the Mountain Rimse should address the proprietor at Cresson Springs, Cambria county, Penni. SWINDLING BOARDING HOUSE KEEPERS. —Before Alderman Beitler, yesterday af ternoon,Lafayette Meyers was charged with obtaining boarding under false pretenceg. Several proprietresses of boarding houses testified that the defendant and wife had taken board with them, promising to pay their board promptly,hut had not done so. Mrs, Catharine English, with whom they hoarded for six weeks, testified that Mrs. Meyers had represented her husband to be a private secretary in the War Office, but afterwards said that he was selling cigars in Philadelphia. The case was continued for a further hearing.
