"AUNTIE WADE."—Every soldier who passed
through Philadelphia during the war, remembers
"Auntie Wade," the brave, cheerful old woman,
who, with her three-score-and. ten-years, enlisted
at the Union Volunteer Refreshment Saloon, for
the war, and did such noble service in feeding
the hungry thousands of the "Boys in Blue.
The old lady, now past eighty years of age;
turned out again at National Hall, during the
recent Convention of the "Boys in Blue," and
worked with the beet and strongest of the
"Union Volunteers" during the .three days of
the Convention. The Massachusetts men pay
their compliments to the Union Volunteer -Re
freahment Committee and "Auntie Wade," in the
following terms:
The Executive Committee of the Massachusetts
army and navy delegation to Philadelphia is in
structed by a vote of the delegates to return the
thanks of the delegation to the patriotic ladies of
Philadelphia, especially to'the generous and open
hearted ladies of the UDIOD - Volunteer Refresh
ment Saloon, including the never-to-be-forgotten
"Aunt Wade," for the hospitality extended the
Massachusetts delegation upon the recent Phila
delphia expedition, which hospitality bas only
been equalled by that extended during the war.
The thanks of the delegation aro also extended to
Samuel B. Fales and Thomas C. Hand, Ens.,
'
and other citizens of Philadelphia, for liberal
hospitalities extended the delegates; and to
Hon. J. M. S. Williams, of Cambridge,
and citizens of Boston, whose gener
ous liberality rendered the excursion a complete
success. The committee would be doing injus
tice to a veteran of the late war if it failed to ex
press the hearty appreciation of the delegation
of the services of Brown's Brigade Band, and of
the untiring efforts of its leader, Captain Brown,
to merit the approval of the committee and dele
gation.

JEFFERSON MEDICAL COLLEGE.—OR Monday
evening last, Dr. J. Aitken Meigs entered upon
his duties as Professor of the Institutes of Medi
cine and Medical Jurisprudence in Jefferson Med
ical College, by delivering an inaugural address
upon the "Correlation of the Physical and Vital
Forces." In addition to a large and enthusiastic
class of students, there were present many dis
tinguished physicians, lawyers and divines, to
gether with a number of our prominent citizens,
attracted by the fame of the lecturer, and the
enthusiasm manifested by the medical profession
to secure his election in June last.
After,paying a glowing tribute to the labors
and worth of Professor Di - mason, the late in
cumbent of this chair, he gave an elaborate ac
count of the recent progress of science in relation
to the correlation qt the physical and vital forces,
and showed conclusively that all real advance
ment in physiology was due to the application
to this science of the methods of research em
ployed in chemistry and physics. He especially
directed attention to the labors in this field of
Dr. Metcalfe, of Kentucky, for many years a
resident of this city, and of Lardner Vanuxem,
one of the early members of the Academy ol" Na
tural Sciences, claiming for them priority in the
enunciation of the correlation theory over Pro
fessors Grove, Carpenter and other English wri
ters.
Prof. Meigs discoursed to his large and intelli
gent audience for fully an hour and a half,
and was listened to with profound attention.
We have rarely listened to each a combinatiow,of
eloquence and scientific research as was exhibited
in this lecture, and we congratulate the
Tru-tees of the Jefferson Medical College upon
their wisdom in electing one whb Is evidently,
by his studies and his practical expert:d - be as a
ph3sician, so well fitted to fill the responsible
position of a teacher of Physiology.
ASSAULTINC, A MAN.—Richard Warner was ar
rested yesterday on the charge of committing an
assault and battery on John Wiggins, at Twenty
second and Coates streets, on election day. He

streets. It is alleged that Lodge, in company
with a crowd of young men, pursued the young
man in question to the grocery store and then
made the assault. He was held in el,OOO bail to
mower at court.
IT is WONDERFUL how cheap goods are sold at
Gays China Palace!lo22 Chestnut street. The stock
was all selected by Mr. Gay in person from the largest
manufactories in Europe. The cause of their being so
remarkably cheap is the great reduction of prices on
the other side of the water. Business being very dull,
ail the manufacturers have large stocks on hand, and
are willing to discount largely to effect sales. Below
we quote prices of a few staple goods. Fancy are at a
still greater discount.

NEW JERSEY MATTERS.
CONTEST FOR TIIE AbSEMBLY.—There appears
to be considerable of a contest in Camden for the
nomination of Assemblymen. A number of can
didates are mentioned in connection with it on
the Republican side. Among the two most
prominent names, however, are those of Harry
L. Bonsall and Hon. James M. Seovel. The
Democrats will, it is generally conceded, take up
Hon. John Hood, and give him their renomina
tion. The nominating conventions will be held
in a few days, as the day of election occurs on the
third of next month, and but a short time is left
for the different parties to work in.
ARRESTS.—Yestorday, Officer Ayres arrested
two brothers named Zimmerman, aged about
fourteen and sixteen years, in Camden, charged

in their possession $127 7b. They were commit
ted for a hearing.
DISORDERLY CIIARACI ERS.—Patrick Monahan
and Ann Monahan were yesterday found at the
Federal street ferry in a beastly state of intoxi
cation, and were taken into custody by Officer

also been arrested and tined for drunkenness.
TAxas.—Persons who have taxes assessed
against them in Camden should remember that
alter the 20th of the present month all unpaid
bills will be returned to a Justice of the Peace for
collection. Twelve per cent. interest and other
costs will then be added.
R PEA. LED. - The law authorizing and requiring
voters to be registered, and which operated very
effectually In checking the gross frauds on the
ballot-box, was, last winter, repealed by a Demo
cratic Legislature of New Jersey. Republicans
must bear this fact in mind on election day, and
see that no illegitimate votes are polled.
THE CAMPAIGN.—The Buckeye Blacksmith
delivered an address before the Grant and Col
fax Central Campaign Club, of Camden, lust
evening. The reputation of the speaker and
the solid sledge-hammer arguments he employs
attracted a veil , large audience.
CALITIIVAIPIANN —Mayor Cox has issued in
structions to the police officers to disperse all dis
orderly crowds who annoy residents by cali
thumplan noises or other disorderly proceedings.
This order is being rigidly enforced.

PREVARICATIOCs JACK BAKER Was recently
examined in an important ease iu a Western Court.
Counsel found it extremely difficult to extract the
whole truth from him. Ills ingenuity and Ignorance
combined enabled hint to evade the question. At last
the <lawyer, losing all patience, exclaimed: "Why,Alr.
8., do you prevaricate so much?" Jack, supposing he
referred to hie peculiar manner of untrance,couvalsed
the court-and undieneB-by—replying-4ndigifittitly-:

A good answer, that. Bat there is no prevarication
in :he statement that the best coal in the city 18 sold
by W. W. Alter, 057 North ^ intb street. Those who
have purchased their coal from him bear witness to trie
truth of this assertion.
For the ronvenieuce of the public, M. Alter has

FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS
RAILROAD COMPANY.
t 360 Miles completed.
A limited amount of the First Mortgage Banda of the
Union Pacific Railroad Company are offered to the pub
lic, as one of the safest and most profitable investments.
1. They are a firat mortgage upon the longest and most
important railroad in the country.
2. By law they can be leaned to the Company only as
the road is completed, so that they always represent a
real value.
3. Their amount le limited by act of Congrope to Fifty
Million Dollars on the entire Pad de line, or an average of
lees than 830,000 per mile.
4. Hon. E. D. Morgab, of the United Statee Senate, and
lion, Oakes kmes, of the United Statee liouseof Repro.
sentatives, are the trustees for the bondhold,re, to see
that all their intereets are protected.
5. Five Government Directors, appointed by the.Preel
dent of the United States, aro responsible to the country
for the management of its affairs.
6. Three United States Commissioners must certify that
the road ie well built and equipped, and in all respects a
tirstclass railway, before any bonds can be Waled upon it.
7. The United States Government lends the Company
its own bonds to the same amount that the company is
sues, for which it takes a second mortgage as security.
S. As additional aid, it makes en absolute donation of
lit.edo acres of land to the mile, lying upon each side of
the road.
A. The bonds pay 131 X per cent. in fold, and the principa l
is also payable in gold.
10. The earnings from the local or way business were
over Fore MILLI ON DoLt.Arts last year, which, after pay.
ing operating expenses, was much more than eutlicient to
pay the interest These earnings will be vastly increased
on the completion of the entire line in 18615.
12. No political action can reduce the rate of interest.
It must remain for thirty years—Six per cent. per at
m °old, now equal to between eight and nine per cent, in
currency. Thr principal is then payaote in poll. If a
bond, with such guarantees, were issued by the Govern
ment, its mac kot price would not be leas than from 20 to
25 per cent. kremlum. As these bonds are issued under
uocernment authority and suuervision, upon what is
very largelo Government work, they must ultimately
approach (ievernuient prices. No other corporate bonds
are made so secure.
13. The issue will soon be exhausted. The salem have
acanbtimes been half a million a day, and nearly twenty
millions have already been Hold. About ten millions more
may be offered. It is not improbable that at Home time
not far distant, all the remainder of the bonds the Com
pany can issue will be token by name combination of
capitediats and withdrawn from the market, except at a
large advance. The long time, the hien gold interest, and
the be' felt security,munt make these bonds very valuable
for export.
All the predictions which the officers of this Company
have made in relation to the progromeandpuffiness success
of their enterprise, er the value and advance in the price
of their securities, have been more than confirmed, and
they therefore suggest that parties who desire to invest in
their bonds will tindit to their advantage to do slat oiwe.
'file price for the present is 102, and accrued interest at
6 per coat. in currency from July I, 1869.
Subscriptions will be received in Philadelphia by
And in New York
At the Company's Office N 0.20 Nassau St,
John J. Cisco & Son, Bankers, 59 Wall St.
And by tho Company'n advertised Agents throughout
the United Eitatee.
Bonds sent free, but :parties subscribing through loca
agents will look to them for their safe delivery.
A NEW PAMPHLET AND MAP WAS ISSUED OUT
let. containing a report of the program of the work to that
date, and a more complete statement in relation to the
value of the bonds than can be given in an advertisement
which will be rent free on application at the Company's
oflices or to any of the advertised agents,
