whenever circumstances would admit of his so
doing. lle was a firm friend of the blind, and
ever desirous to extend to them and to the whole
cause his efficient aid and support."
IMPORTANT LEGAL. DtSCISION.—In the Court of
Nisi Prins, before Judge Strong, yesterday and
to-day, a suit was tried, brought by Robert
Thompson against the Philadelphia, Germantown
and Norristown Railroad Company. The plaintiff
alleged that he left, the city for Germantown on
the Bth of May last in the 12 o'clock train, and
that the train did not stop a sufficient time at
Germantown to allow him to alight; that he
jumped while the train was in motion, having a
bundle in his arms, but was struck by the car 'and
thrown and seriously injured. The Company
proved by a number of witnesses that the train
stopped longer at Germantown than usual, on
account of the pumps of the engine being ob
structed, and it was shown that the plaintiff was
engaged in conversation, and did not notice the
stoppage at the depot.
The ease was argued by Thomas K. Elcock,
Esq., for plaintiff, and by Henry M. Phillips and
Edward H. Well, Esqs., for defendant. Judge
Strong charged the jury that if a person jumps
from a railroad cur whilst the train is in motion,
he is guilty of negligence; and if he contributes
to the accident he cannot recover; and that under
the uncontradicted evidence in the case it was
their duty to find for defendant. The jury fonnd,
•
accordingly, for defi-ndant.
Run., 4:c.—Wm. Martin, Edward Flanigan
and John Cunningham were arrested last night,
at Nineteenth and• Market streets, for riot and
assault and battery. Michael McAleer and some
friendS were coming in from West Philadelphia.
and when they reached Nineteenth and Market
streets they were attacked by the defendants and
three others. The noise caused by the assault
attracted the attention of the police, and the ac•
cased wore captured.' The 'three others escaped.
The prisoners had a hearinw ' this morning before
Ald.rman Jones, and were held,in $BOO bail for

BLIND%r kb . (tool. tisnox.—We
1-arn with.p:casure that through the instrumen
tality of the American Sunday School Union,
over r(q,000 Sunday Schools have been organized,
&Om which more than 1,000 churches have
grown to adorn, and bless the land. In these
i•chords two million five hundred Thousand
children • have received instruction.
There yet remains in our extended
country four millions of children with
out the privileges of the Sunday School, and
the Society is making efforts to bring those ne
glected ones within its influence; but to accom
plish this work they need immediate help. It is
feared the Society will be obliged to discharge
one-third of its missionaries, for the want of
means to sustain them. We hope the friends of
the Sunday School Union will aid this important
and useful work.

NEU JERSEY !MATTERS
PETTY TITIEVIEG.—This business is carried on
to a great extent in Camden, the light-lingered
members of the fraternity operating in porno in
stances in a very held and daring manner. They
take all kinds of articles, from valuable over
coats to horse blankets and buffalo robes. An
evening or two since Dr. bchenek had his buffalo
robe stolen from his horse while it was standing
in front of his own house, and a short time pre
viously Dr. Marcy had his carried away. Several
of these operators have been made to till. the just
penalty of their crimes.
TEE COURTS.—In the Camden County Courts
now in session, the civil business has been dim
posed of; and the following named persont
pleaded_ guilty to the several charges agains;
them Edward Eike, selling liquor on Sunday,
Littleton Williams, do., and without license;
Jeremiah Julius, two indictments,for assault and
battery; Peter Hook, two indictments for petty
larceny, John Taylor, assn It and battery; Her
mann Shultz, selling liquor on Sunday; Ellen
Crawford, assault and battery; Andrew Collings,
grand larceny; Thomas Needham, assault and
battery; Lydia F. Gifford . ; three indictments of
grand larceny; Charles heonkle, malicious mis
chief; Robert Forman, Daniel Forman and James
Jackson, larceny of corn.
DDIINICENNESS.—During the past week there
has been an unusual number of drunken persons
arrested in Camden, Indicating that the quality
of the liquor is degenerating ; or else the persons
drinking It are less careful of the quantity they
swallow. Barnes Horn was twice arrested for
drunkenness, Daniel Doyle was found "dead
drunk;" Philip Calaway was found in a similar
way, a night or two since. These and several
others paid the penalties which the law In such
cases pieVides.
Dr.orc.vrto:c.--The Second Baptist Church of
Camden have erected a largo anti handsome edifice
for the purposes of Divine worship, at the corner
of Fourth and Mount Vernon sireets, South
Ward, and will dedicate the basement portion of
it on Sunday, the "_6th 'nat. The Pastor is the
Rev. C. M. DeitZ. The dedicatory sermon will
be preached by Rev. Dr. Boardman, of Phila
delphia, at o'clock in the afternoon. Sermon
in the everting by Rev. Levi Beck, of Pennsyl
vania. Services in the morning at 10, 1 o'clock.
A Gra:AT Dis.s.pvorrAtiE.—A few weeks ago
the night mail to Atlantic City was discontinued,
thereby causing much disadvantage to the citi
zens, as they now have but ono mail per day.
The reason assigned in Atlantic City for this dis
continuance is that no one has been sworn in to
deliver it from the cars to the post-office. Mr.
Keats, the baggage-master, has taken such an
oath, and the arrangement for delivering the mail
in the evening ought to be made at once. •
Tin= LADS DROWNED.—on Friday afternoon,
while a numbor'of lads were skating on Evans's
Mill Piaid, near Haddonfield, five of them broke
through the ice. Two wore rescued, but three of
them, named Took, Oafferty and Shinn, were
drowned. Their ages range from eight to twelve
years. Toole was quite a prising boy, and
Was taken in Church last Sabbath. He was about
ten years of age. •
LIFE-SAVVNG STATIONS.—An effort has been
made by some of the Democrats of 'Monmouth
and Atlantic counties to induce Congress to di
vide the life-saving stations on the Jersey coast
into three districts. This is designed to give posi
tions to two Democrats, whereas it is now held
by a Union man, Mr. Ivins.

The Company have ample facilities for supplying any

This may be done wholly or in part by additional suir

EARNINGS OF THE COMPANY.
At prevent, the profits of the Company are derived
only from its local traffic, but this is already much more
than sufficient to pay the interest on all the Bonds the
Company can issue. if not another mile were built. It ie
not doubted that when the road is completed the through
traffic of the only lino connecting the Atlantic and Pacl ,
fie States will ho large beyond precedent,and as there MU
be no competition, it can always be done at profitable
rates.
'twill be noHced that the Union Pacific Railroad is, in
fact, a Government Work. built under the flu pc rvislon of
Govetnment officers, and to a large extent with Go
vemment money, and that its bonds are issued andel
Government direction. It is believed that no similar
security is so carefully guarded, and certainly no other is
based upon a larger or more valuable Ooperty. 'AA the
Company's
