CITY BFfIJETm. No\ i-ltiih in Enoinbmuno, Mechanics and Tiieoubtioai, Scikxck. —At tho meeting ol the Franklin Institute last evening, tho proceedings of which are published on tho second page of to day's BcrxETiN, the principal feature was the report of the Resident Secretary, Prof. Morton, on Novelties in Engineering, Mechanics and Tlieoreticfil Scicnco. This report was, on the present occasion, Illustrated by some admirable models, and many beautiful aud instructive ex periments. We can do little more, in this place, than give the titles of some subjects mentioned. Thus, the plans of. tho Kfeat bridge over the East River, at New lorK, were mentioned, and the actual progress or tnc work was described. Plans for a bridge a cro / i the Straits of Messina, and for one acroestiie English Channel, were discussed with reference to their value ns suggestions and their featu practicability and no-elty. The tt , ' now exciting so much interest in described; so also the new Graving dodt utlfolu, a novel grading machine, an apparatus ft r bossing metal tubes,- one for drjing ton. a new tool-holder for the lathe, T ei >' on “ patent steam boiler, the improved system of car brakes invented by Mr. S. MeCambndge, which, from the strong testimonials presented, seems to be coming into very general lavor, and many other valuable novelties. Lndcr the head of scientific subjects, some beautiful experiments were shown by means of the powerful lantern which Prof. Morton has had constructed for these purposes. These experiments woro to Illustrate ‘ the clreutotlcin 'devel .pad"ln' tluids _by heat, » subject so important in connection with the con struction of steam boilers and tho ventilation of buildiDgs. This subject, so difficult to illustrate to a large audience, was here demonstrated in a manner at once perfectly clear and emi nently beautiful. The apparatus devised for this purpose by Professor Morton will be used,we understand, in some lectures to be deliv ered on “Ventilation,” by Mr. L. W. Leeds, at the Institute this wintfer. The production of ozone, bv the action of electricity, was also de monstrated before the meeting, and various expe riments, bearing upon its application to bleach ing sigar. &c., were shown. This subject has excited great attention abroad. The Receition oe Bishop Wood. —The re ception «f the Rt. Rev. James F. Wood, Bishop of Philadelphia, by the Rev. clergy and the laity, on his return from Rome, which was to have taken "place to-day on the grounds of the St. John’s Orphan Asylum, was postponed, as will be seen by the following notice, which was posted upon the bulletin board at the door of the Cathedral this morning: . , ' „ i - In consequence of the non-arrival ol the Right Rev. Bishop, the receptiou ceremonies, procession, and festival at St. Orphan Asylum, are for the present postponed. Bishop Wood arrived at New York this morn ing in the steamship Arago. Puts. This morning, about six o'clock, a fire •was discovered in the tin store oi Miles Ritteu house, No. 1215 Ridge aveuuo. Mrs. Elizabeth Megarge, who occupies the upper part of the building, perceived the odor of smoke last eve ning, before going to . bed, and this morning, upon entering the cellar, saw fire dropping through from the first floor. It seems that some ashes from a portable furnace had been emptied among some charcoal dust upon the floor. The flames smouldered all night, and had burned a hole through the floor when discovered. No other damage was done. Fkiht with Knives.—Ltißt night, about teil o'clock, three men named Edward Hicks, Harry Huekle and Edward Warner got into a fight on Main street, Germantown. All three used knives in the affray. Huekle aud Warner were badly cut about the head. Hicks had his hand severely injured.
