GIRARD COLLEGE. THE OFFICIAL INVESTIGATION: PRESIDENT SMITH'S EVIDENCE. eloquent DEFENCE. We ffive an extract from the evldonce of Major Smith before the Investigating Committee at Girard College : . There has been a good deal said here about pa triotism, loyalty, and the display of the flag. I am well aware of the story that has been goto around for ihe last two or three years about the absence of the flag from the flag-staff on the Fourth of July, 18(3; That ease seems tff .havo here, however, for it is well enough known that tlie flag was shownthe main building, and illnminated with the Calcium light at night; also, that the halliards of the.flag etaflf broke in the hands of my own son early on the morning of that day; also, that no repair was possiblo without sending down the topmast, and that no riggers were to he gotten *o work at it on that holiday. The epeclflcations on the sub ject are confined to the. single allegation that the flag was not displayed on the occasion of the dedication of the Gettysburg Cenietery. This circumstance liasiVbeeß treasured up for a long time—more than three years. I think—and -my recollection of ttlsnot at all distinct. I have not the slightest recollection of any application having been made to me by the boys on that oc casion, and IdCnythatl did then oral nnyother time, refuse auappllcatton from them to show the flag. And I here* once for all, Boiemnly dis claim ail, even the remotest intention t 6 reflect any party w sentiment whatever by etther the use or disuse of the National Ensign. The cus tom of dearly all toy life has been to see the flag fly; every day, hnt not in civil life. On alt proper occasions, such as victorias, and so forth, I assert and maintain that our flag has teen shown, and challenge any specification to the contrary. None has been ottered. One flag was host by being half-masted daring the solemnities following President Lincoln’s death, end the other in a similar way at the time that the remains of Professor Bache, the first Presi dent of the College, were lying in state in this city. The College waa without a flag, and I be lieve without the ability to purchase one until Mr: Simons iindly snppHed the deficiency. To men Who have never shown loyalty in any other way than by loud professions and a display ot bnndag from their comfortable residences, such matters may innocently enough be the supreme ~bw> offlnmlty. - Bah Mr. Chairman, there is an otfietf touchstone, one rub of which wflUhstantly distinguish. thetrue metal- • T&eflag is fired upon in Charleston Harbor, and lowered to rebel cannon at Sumter; at the call to arms a man lavs down a congenial profession, uis only means of support for hisfnmilyj breaks up a happy home, puts one son as a private in the Army, the other into the Navy, parts from ilia wtfe and two daughters—himself volunteers in April, 1881, and before the end of that month is in the-defences of Washington. Why should he do this ? Why, sir, should I do this ? Because I was, and am a thoroughly and essentially a loyal man. I served my country, sir, m the first rally for her defence. I served her with such knowledge as she had given me when eke called me to assist in raising her armies, and part of the time, too, in a disloyal State- ' . I served her amid the din und blood of the bat tle field, the hardships and privations of the camp and the march. Let the loyalty that steps for ward to fault mine, sir, come to me, tempered with the rebel yell and smoked with rebel powder, and then I will try issues with it. . One of the members who presumed to doubt my-loyalty has said here that he had known offi cers of the Army in Tennessee whose loyalty was . open to his penetrating suspicions. That may, or may not be; but what earned that member to the neighborhood of the army ? Was It patriot ism ? Was it loyalty ? „ , Officers of an army in the field generally know pretty well where lies the loyalty of their peace loving visitors in campaigning times. , Mr. Chairman, at the Unsolicited call of my fellow-citizens, of this my birth-place, and by the advice 1 of comrades In arms, whose names are now the gloiy of our history: by and with the advice and consent of the Com mandcr-in-Chief, fnllv and intelligently glveu, I came; and I say, sir, notwithstanding the affidavits of two of my opposers, to the effect that they never gave mo any such assurances, that my term of office was to he “the same as that of the U. S. Army," that I came here.with every assurance from many of the gentlemen at that time constituting the Direction that I was safe from ail influences extrinsic to official merit. The testimony before yon ot .good men and true will corroborate my own opinion that the step was an unfortunate one, renewing to me all the sufferings in the great cause of six years ago, then Cheerfully encountered, but now endured in the pettiest of local interests. It has been said that Fourth of July was never celebrated by me except by order of the Board. It is not so, sir. In the year 1865, the rebellion being suppressed, it was I,’sir, who proposed to the Board that they should make the day a special celebration’ by spending a little moiiey for music and fire works. This was done, and Mr. Lex has given you some account of tho celebration. On every occasion I have kept the day by public and ap propriate txerclees in tl)e chapo), consisting of the Declaration, singing, speeches, and such de corations and appliances ns I could command. I have never been out of the College on that day, but have, without a thought of all this mouth-loyal criticism, borne my part in such, a manner aB should have placed me beyond: tho reach of slander. I think, Mr. Chairman, that upon a general view of the whole ease, these facts will appear: First! —That the manner of my removal from office was harsh, and entirely unprecedented. Such a mode of proceeding was never before heard of in this community, and the indignation so generally and publicly expressed, was a natu ral feeling, as any one of the majority may easily see, if he would apply the circumstances to his own case or that cf any of his friends. I deny positively that I had anything whatever to do with the publication of any newspaper arti cle (except that In the Daily News, ana that a de- fenclve. one . and_cntirely_ respectful), land . "the common origin” Insinuated Is to be found only in last “touch of a generous nature which makes the world a-kin." I refused to communicate anything to any paper. I refused positively t to do bo for the/ nguirer. They sent a messenger tb the College, with the request that I. would state upon paper my side of tho case. This I refused to do positively. (Second—That these various reasons assigned, cither did not exist in tho minds of tho majority, at the time of their action, and were afterwards hunted up from all sortß of sources; or else wore wilfully and by concert, concealed .from a nu merous minority. lam inclined to think that the former is the state of the case, as all the testi mony as to facts is hearsay, and derived from the prejudices of subordinates; and the searching of records is admitted. » Third—t That tho published statement of the majority, [which by-the-by is incorrect in its figures, and in some other respects. The number of abecondlngs. in the. first eighteen months, is thirteen tt>o great, and the number of another period Is twice as great as my records show, and in another period the number is precisely correct, from such 'ft day in the middle of the month to such another day in another month. But that, sir, was copied f«)m my private journal, which I brought to the Committee room, and forgot. I went out and left it there, and during' the two hours that I was absent, it was copied out of it and published in the paper. That is correct, ninety-five is the number] —that —7 statement I say," sir,Wffietirer ofoplnionaaequirett previons or subsequent to their action, is so bit ter and so severe as to over-shoot the mark, and ' reflect disgrace upon themselves, the College and the city, no matter how much' praise they may take to themselves for their patience. For if these opinions existed before their action they wereculpably derelict; if formed or substantiated afterwards, they were culpably ignorant. Bat I hope, fllr, that your committee will give its ver dict, that unnecessary blame has been scattered broftd-caet over everything relating to tho Col- e ?iwr/A—That the fundamental cause and object „ for my removal, was the ever troublesome con sideration of politics. Now, sir, I never meddled in politics; what opinions I had by Inheritance and association, happened to be adyerse tot those of the Board who elected me; but I cannot divest myself of the notion that I am suffering from tho imputation to toe of thglr opinions., Hence,these anxious cffortß to fasten disloyalty upon mo. This can bo nothin* bnt ajjoltfi'caf oirfcry.lnvlew:' of the ever shifting nature of tho Board,there can , scarcely ever be any stability in admlniatoring tho.

The mill was three and a half stories in height and was built Of stone. It has been known for a long time as Kelly’s mill, and for many years Kelly s <lam has bfeen a famous resort for thojuvondes for swimming in summer time, and for skating In whiter. , • The mill at the present time was owned and occupied by Joseph B. Bcatchard, for the manu facture of woolen goods. It contained much valuable machinery, some of which was entirely new, and had but recently been put in. A large stock of lawmaterial had also been laid in within a short time, In order that the mill might resume operations on full time. , „ Notwithstanding the efforts of the firemen, po lice and citizens, the main mill whs completely gutted.' The contents were entirely destroyed, and nothing remains bnt the baro wslls. ■ A bortion ot the stock which was In discon nected buildings was saved by the police and firemen.. These buildings were also preserved . through the greatest exertions. Mr. Scatcbard estimates his loss at about $40,- 000, which Is partly covered by insurance. The fire broke out in the beiler room, and originated accidentally. It created a bright light, which could be distinctly seen In the city. Swindled Yesterday two men entered the store of Cbas. Kopp, in Germantown, and com menced a conversation with Mr. K. They finally told him that they had goods valued at $3,800 in the Custom House and wished to pay the duty, but had not sufficient money. They asked a loan of $2OO, and proposed to leave as security a valise which contained two gold watches and several eilvcrgoblets. At this point, another individual came upon the scene. He looked at the jewelry, examined it closely, and then offered Mr. Kopp $25 If he would allow him to loan toe $2OO to the men and take too valise as security, Mr. Kopp thereupon thought tbat be had a good thing of it, and handed over the money. The two men then left, promising to return in a short time and pay the amount. In a few minutes tho third individual, also departed. None of the parties made their appearance again, and an examination of the jewelry in tho valise showed that it was all bogus, and that Mr. Kopp had been very neatly swindled. James 8. Earle & Sons’Sale. Tickets for the exhibition of Messrs. Earles’ Paintings at toe Academy of Fine Arts can be obtained at toe galleries, 816 Chestnut Btreet, and of Mr. B. Scott, Jr., too auctioneer. The collection was largely visited and admired yesterdoj’, and late into the evening, as toe pictures ean be thoroughly ex amined by gaslight. Some Of the most important of the works which have graced the walls of Messrs. Earles’ Galleries for some weeks past are now at the Academy, and will be sold with the entire number next Friday and Saturday week. Carl Millnor’s two large Bavarian landscapes look grandly as they are now exhibited, as well as the large landscape of Weber, certainly his best work. Several genre pictures of toe best Dusseidorf artists are well worthy of attention. The exhibi tion will be open all day to-morrow. Death of an Old Philadelphian — Mr. Wil liam C. Milligan, an old Philadelphian, died near Haddonfield, New Jersey, on Wednesday last. Mr. Milligan was long a resident of this city, but for some years'past ho lived upon a farm near Haddonfield, New Jersey.. He was at one time a member of toe dry-goods jobbing firm of Deal ito Milligan, and at the time of his death he was en gaged at the National Armor Works at Kaighn’s Point. He was among the most active projectors of the Camden and Atlantic Kailroad, and very prominent in tho land association which caused Atlantic City to spring up among barren sands and dismal swamps. Air. Milligan was a gentle man of unusual kindness of heart and gen erosity of disposition, and his many friends will hear with pain and sorrow of his unexpected death. ' Dr. Schenck’s Remedies. — Wo refer our read ers to an article in another column of our paper, signed “One Who Knows,” setting forth the pe culiar claims to confidence of Dr. J. H. Schonck’s Pulmonic Svrup, Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake Pills, and biß mode of treating all cases of dis eased longs and respiratory organs. This, us well as the two former articles, are well worthy of a careful perusal, coming as they do from the pen of a practicing physician of this city, whose acknowledged skill and long practice .eminently qualify him to speak. Washington’s Birthday. —To-morrow will be the 1311th Anniversary of Washington’s birth day. In this State the day has been made a holiday, by act of Assembly, and it is partly observed as such in this city. A number of the military organizations in the city will parade to morrow in honor of the occasion. The Soldiers of the War of 1812 will hold their usual meeting in the Supreme. Court-room at 10 o’clock A, M- At the Polytechnic College there will be a cele bration by the students. The exercises will con sist of music, a recitation and au address. An Unsit ckssful Attempt at Roisiikkv. —Last night ah attempt was made to rob the wholesale grocery store of Krause & Kegrise, at Fourth and Vine streets. It is sup posed thnt the thieves were secreted in the cellar. They opened a trap-door leading into the store, and in doing so upset a barrel half-filled with mo lasses. The noise thus made frightened the rob bers, and they left without taking any plunder with them. Fatal Fall. —A man named John Dransfield, was found deaefin the yard of his dwelling, on School street, Germantown, a few mornings :6lncc. : :Itlß supposed.that ho got hdmolate at night, and instead of awakening some of the in mates, attempted to get into tno house by the second Btorv window. He fell and woe badly in jured, and died before daylight. Serious Accident.—A man named John Collins was admitted into the Penneyvania Hos pital this morning. He is the mate of a vessel, which 1b lying at the Breakwater, and on Monday last was struck by a hawser, and was serionsly injured. He was brought to the city to-day on the steam-tug America. Sent to the House Op Refuge. —A colored boy, named James Bondy, employed in a house at Seventeenth and Chestnut streets, broke open a closet yesterday, and helped himself to $5, be longing to his employer. He wes atreßted, and after a nearing before Alderman Hurley, was sent to the House of Refuge. Alleged Fugitive Captured —James Shear was arrcßted yesterday by Detectives Try on and Levy, upon the charge of having been concerned in a robbery of the barber shop of James Smith, in Harrisburg. He was taken to Harrisburg last, night to await his trial. Till-Tam-ing.—Two menentered a store, No. 231 South Fifth street, last evening, and while one claimed the attention of the attendant, by making a Bmall purchase, the other robbed'the money drawer of ®4O. Sailing of the Juniata.—The steamer Juniata of the Philadelphia and Southern Mail Steamship Line, has arrived at her wharf, and will sail on Wednesday, February 2fith, at 8 A. M. Overcrowding Pnsßcnger Railway cam. To the Editor of the. Mila. Evening EuUetin . Sir: . Occasionally there appears an article in print on this subject,as in yoursheet of yesterday, which is too unreasonable and too unjust to merit a moment’s favorable consideration.

I think that if there was any Dutch blood or bad words in our Com position, there would be a big noise made. Many persons have moved to , the rural districts, as, they are bo well accommodated with railways, and when they want to go,:they mil go, and mvst go, crowded or not; crowded. The fact is, our town IS large, .and the people cannot afford to wait for, empty cars, in stormy or cold weather. It all looks very pretty for a few selfish Insiders to monopolize a car; but if the insiders ; happened to be the outsiders, and had business or other obliga tions to meet, the aspect of things would be changed. Now put this matter to a vote of tho people, and 90 per cent of the brains of tho com munity will go against any ordinance to regulate this business. No, sir, it cannot be regulated. These cars belong to certain companies, but at the same time they are at the disposal of a dem ocratic? cent community, who must be willing to take the chances for crowding,; for there is no Bach thing os wait. All must DO accommodated, even if occasionally the crowd is a little uncom fortable. I’„ M., and not a Stockholder. Pain Paint $5 a Bottle. Wolcott’s Pain Paint beats everything.
