DITY BIIJWLETIN. REFORMATION CELEURATION.—Yesterday the three hundred and fifty-first anniversary of the great religious Reformation started in Germany under Martin Luther, was appropriately ob served in the Lutheran churches of this city. At St. Mark's, Spring Garden street, the services were solemn and impressive. In the morning a sermon was preached by the pastor, Rev. Dr. Kunkelman,and the evening a sermon by the Rev. Dr. Schaeffer, of Germantown. Both Dr. Hat ter's church, on New street, between Third and Filurth,and Dr. Seiss's church,on Race street,east ofSlixtb, held special services. The heavy storm prevented many persons from attending, yet there was a large audience in the houses of wor ship. At Zion's Church, corner of Fourth and Cherry streets, yesterday, was an occasion of unusual interest to the German Lutheran Congregation of this city., For 77 years.the congregation had worshipped there, and this being the last day In which services would be held in the old building, a large number of persons assembled. It is said that UP to 1743, a small German Lutheran cqn gregat3on, at that time the only Lutheran flock in the city, held their public services In a carpenter shop, situated in Arch street. In that year, Rev. H. M. Muldenberg arrived in this city, and in that year the corner-stone of St. Michael's Lutheran Church, Fifth street, below Cherry, was laid, and five years after the building was consecrated to its sacred purposes. Daring the services of Rev. Mr. Muhlenburg the congre gation grew in numbers, and in consequence more extensive accommodations were required, and in 1766, the corner-atone of Zion Church was laid, and the building was finished November 22d, 1769. The church was taken possession of by the Fnplish army in 1777 and used as an hospi taL It was also used for the same purpose by the American soldiers in 1779. In 1794, on the 27th of December, all of the upper portion of the building was destroyed by fire, and nothing left but the bare walls. Measures were at once ta ken to rebuild, and in 1796 the work was accom plished. The old Zion Church will seat about 3,000 people. The altar services were conducted by Rev. E. Ruche, pastor of St. Paul's Church. The sermon was delivered by Rev. W. J. Mann, who has for the past eighteen years preached in the pulpit. On the altar was placed a plan for the new church, Co be built on the old Lutheran burying ground, in Franklin street, below Vine. THE SUPREME COURT. NATURALIZATIONB.—DiEr trict Attorney Mann has written the following letter:—l have been asked to give an opinion as to the duties of election officers in regard to the cer tillcatt s of naturalization issued or purporting to be issued by J. R. Snowden, Prothonotary, with the seal, or what purports to be the seal of the Supreme Court attached thereto, and I unhesita tingly say th6..t it is the duty of the officers to re ject all votes tendered by persons who offer to prove their citizenship by such papers, which purport to have been issued in September and October of this year. It is no torious that the Judge in almost all of these cases never saw the applicant or the voucher; and the certificates, being issued contrary to the express provisions of the act of Assembly of this Corn- I co n wihaa t , ijk g a, D na _clertion naiads should not receive them as the evidence of nat uralization by existing laws. WILLIAM B. MANN, District Attorney PUILAUEL]'IiIA, Oct. 31, 1868. NEGLECT as PAbbENGER RAILWAY COMPANIES. —The presentment of the Grand Jury, submitted to the Court on Saturday, Bays: The Grand Jury find it 'in imperative duty to bring to the knowledge of the Court the gross eghgenet on the part of the city railway corpo rations in permitting the paving in the street over the line of the road. in many places cut into ruts on each side of the ralls.thus rendering it al most impossible to drive a carriage on the track. In many instances the roadway between the rails is in such condition as to render it dangerous to drive upon. We trust the Court will, as early as possible,take such measures as may be necessary to cause thi,Chief Commissioner of Highways to exercise hie authority in the premises. DEATg2N,a POLICE STATION.—An unknown . xnan died at the Central Station yesterday morn ing from apoplexy..

Tho Coroner has charge of the body. ELECTION FEAUDS.-=The Grand Jdry rresent ment made on Saturday says: The Grand Jury have had before'them evidence of deliberate or ganization in open day in this and neighboring cities of bands of men having no right to vote at our elections, for this purpose coming to oar city and repeatedly voting under assumed names, and also preventing by violence and intimidation legal voters from exercising their rights. The , frauds have been carried to such an extent as seems to thejury to earnestly demand of all good citizens and officers of all parties to detect and punish to the extent of the law all such criminals. NEW JERSEY MATTERS. Tun Brawl-rm.—To-morrow will bo a day fraught with important consequences to the citi zens of Camden, as well as throughout the entire State. The interests involved are great, and no Republican who can in anywise walk, or be con veyed to the polls, should be left at borne. A United States Senator is to be elected by the Le gislature the coming session, and it is important that a majority of that body should be Repub licans. Henry L. Bones% William C. Shinn and Thomas H. Coles are the nominees of the Legislative Districts of Camden county, all sound and substantial men. It is imperative that they should be elected, and for this reason every Republican voter should go the polls. Every vote cast for these gentlemen contributes towards the preservation of the Union and Con stitution of our country, good order and peace. Neglecting to vote under such circumstances would be criminal. Ve hicles should therefore be provided to convoy to the polls all who are too aged and enfeebled to walk thither, and every effort should be made to search them out. The importance of the election demands that to-morrow should be devoted to the cause of right by every true friend of constitutional liberty,of the Union and its per petuity. A long pull, a strong pull, and a pull all together, and the day will be won. Fix/maim AFFAIBB.—Daring the year just closed the expenditures of the city of Camden were as follows: Salaries, $1,406 97; gas and lighting, $315 38; fire apparatus, $1,925 90; re lief of poor, $993 33; miscellaneous, $63,864 94; families of volunteers, $200; taxes, $4B 82; Hughes fund, $100; interest, commission and discounts, $8,838 50; police, $52,188 54. Total, $132,498 38. North Ward expenses were $26,- 532 70; Middle Ward, $21,798 94; South Ward, $20,654 01. Fru MarrzTo-day the Weceaeoe Rose Company of Camden will bring home and house their new and elegant steamer. This machine costs $45,000, and in order 'to assist the company in defraying the burden of debt thus created, the city council have presented them with a year's appropriation in advance. BTILESTS TO BE OPENED.—III keeping with the progress of public improvements, Berkley street, from Sixth to Broadway, and Sixth street, from Clinton to Morris, are to be opened and dedi cated-es public highways, in conformity with the surveyed plan of the city. TICE DEMOCRATIC PARADB.—The Democratic procession and torchlight parade on Saturday evening, notwithstanding the inclement weather, was well attended, and made a very creditable display. Clubs from various sections of the county participated in the display. NPROVEMENT.—The City Councils have passed an ordinance authorizing the paving of Federal street, from the junction of the Haddon field turnpike to Newton avenue, the extreme limit of the city. ' • Chat About the Duke of Wellington. I had the pleasure more than once of seeing and saluting this famous English hero. Every one took off his hat to the Duke in those days, and if he were cantering along in one of the London Parks, you could trace his progress by the hats that were lifted to him. One day, m London, when I happened to stroll into eit. James Park, I observed that a great number of carriages and gentlemen on horseback were going toward one of the entrances of Buckingham Palace, the London residence of Queen Victoria. These carriages stopped but a few moments at the palace „door, and then rolled away. A great crowd of people had gathered to witness this spectacle, and I being very young and a stranger in the place, joined them, and stood there a long time, admiring the beautiful equipages, the excellent horses, and showy n livieries. Dukes and duch esses, earls and countesses, barons, baronets, knights and commoners, many of them dis tinguished for more than rank and wealth, passed in review before the crowd, without eliciting from them any mark of respect, or recognition. But at length an elderly-looking gentleman came up on horseback, attended by a single servant, whom every one instantly recognized, by his large and peculiar nose, to be the Duke of Wellington. There was no indication of the military man about him, except the stripes down his trowsers, which, on that day, as the Court was in mourning, were black. The moment he appeared, every hat was removed, and he acknowledged the salutation of the crowd by raising his fore finger to the brim of his hat, and holding it there as he passed along. I saw him after ward, when but a single individual took off his hat to him, no one else being present at the moment, but whether, one did so, or a multitude, the Duke always lifted his finger in the same courteous, military fashion. A princess had been born the day before, and all these distinguished people were going to the palace to inquire respecting the health of the Queen and the little stranger. They merely alighted, and entering an ante-room, made the inquiry of some official person, wrote their names in a book, and retired. The Duke was seventy-four years of age then, but while he remained on his horse he sat erect and firm, and might have passed for a well-preserved man of sixty-five. It was only when he was getting off his horse, and getting on again, that he showed some signs of decrepitude. The young stranger could not help thinking that, when the Duke of Wellington "mounted in hot haste" for the field of Waterloo, there must have been more spring in his back-bone than there was on this occasion. However, he required no as sistance, and when he had given his bridle to hie servant, he stepped lightly enough toward the door of the palace. There was something touching and roman tic in the spectacle of this aged warrior,whose lifemust forever be an essential part of the history of his country, paying homage to a youthful Queen. Lie was a warm friend both of the Queen and the throne, and there was said to be in his demeanor towards her a beautiful blending of respect and affection. The Queen,on her part, cherished for him an unbounded veneration. During the time when he was Prime Minis ter, his immovable opposition to liberal measures made him,for tv short time,the most unpopular man - in England: - ` - beautiful and spacious house near the principal en trance to Hyde Park, his country's gift, was assailed by the mob and its windows broken. At the same time his statue, just within the park, was pelted; but as it was made of iron, the stones rolled harmlesssly about the pedes tal of the statue, land lay within the railings. The indomitable old Tory, justly indignant at the outrage, boarded up the windows of his house, and refused for a long time to inhabit it or have it repaired. He did, however, at length, so far relent as to have the windows replaced, and to live in the house as usual; but the stones which had fallen about the statue were not removed for some years, and I saw them myself in 1843. At that time, every American, on getting access to the gallery of the House of Lords, desired, first of all, to have the Duke of Wel lington pointed out to him. I well remember seeing the Duke, sitting in his accustomed seat, in his accustomed attitude—his arms folded, his legs crossed, and his hat .drawn over his eyes; as though he had seated hita- THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN-PIIILADELPHIA;MON-DAY,4loViitilt 2;1868. self for an afternoon nap.- He had -a singu larly insignificant appearance while seated thus, as he was slightly undersized, and his formidable nose was concealed. It was a warm afternoon, and he had on White trow sera. seldom has an innocent youth betm more astonished than I was when I was told that that sleepy little gentleman, on the , floor of the house, was the great Duke of Wellington, the hero of Waterloo, the conqueror of Na poleon t. An hour afterwards, when the House ad journed, I hurried down to the entrance to - see him pass,• and possibly to have a sight of him as he mounted his horse and rode away. Both these privileges 1 enjoyed. He cer tainly looked better as he stepped out of the house, and brought up his , anger to the brim of his hat to the people who uncovered before him. His face, I remember, seemed all nose, and indeed I can recall nothing of his countenance at this time, except that well developed organ.—Jaynes Parton.

The Rejection olkthe , Votes of Ilatural • toed Citizens. . • , In the cases heard in the Court - of Quarter Ses sions on Saturday, a report of which was pub lished in thektatskris of that day, Judge Brew ster gave the following opinion : In a matter of so much importance, I would like to take time to deliberate on the points pre sented. But the matter was in part beforo me on last Saturday morning,and since the petition was presented, 1 have reflected on the matter, and given much thought and attention to it. Sof will state my decision now. This is a case of great importance. It concerns numerous election officers throughout, 250 odd precincts in this city. Those who were elected were compelled to serve. Men who do this aro liable • ter.very heavy punishment ; , if &hog know- , ingly accept a fraudulent, or reject a legal Vote. There arc certain elementary principles,' which I take to be my guide. in the littlevhaos which surrounds all this controversy in question of law. The first is that the validity of the certificate of record must be determiucti by the paper-sth Southwortb, p.-114, and Bilarewood in Comition wealth vs. Louden; second, that nit things done by officers of the law,, especially by judges. are prest‘ined,until the contrary, isprovedto be true. he authority of judges, cannot be impeached. This is another things must bo pro umed to be solemnly upright. • Applying this teat to the [Sets before me, they stand thus:. Certain . • Certain perions claiming to be naturalized ap peared at the polls and claimed the right to vote, presenting certificates of naturalization purport- Ing to be issued by the Supreme Court, with its seal and signature of its Prothonotary. These were rejected. How the judges reached their de c Mils lam not advised. In one case there was a difference of opinion between the inspectors. In the others the in frpectors appear to have been silent. In the case of the man from New York ho could not abjure his allegiances that ho had already done. I hold it to be the law of the land that a judge of election is not allowed to go into these matters. It is not for him to judge whether a man who presents himself to vote has been naturalized in another State. Ho was to accept it. It would be a sad - thing if election officers could go behind acknowledged- pa pers. He has nothing to do with the question of jurisdiction. This is a question of grave importance. A judge of the inferior courts should hesitate a long time before undertaking to judge the superior court. He should leave it to the judges of the superior court. If this was an ordinary case which is pre sented, I believe it would be my duty to remand the relators. But there Is an element in the case to which I cannot close my eyes. A judge of election is presumed to have judicial knowl edge. It appears that one of . the Justices of the Su preme Court, writing in his name and for ano ther Justice of the Supreme Court in reference to this matter, declared in these words: "We all three regard the practice of naturali zation pursued in the Nisi Prins, however old or by whatever Judges sanctioned, as contrary to the plain words of the acts of Congress, and as therefore ILLEGAL: He writes not only for himself but for a third gentleman, commissioned by the Governor, bat who had not yet taken his seat. tikes been pro perly suggested that the opinion of that gentle man is entitled to no weight- There is great truth in that remark.. But this will stand as the recorded judgment of two of the judges of the court. Therefore, this naturalizatloc was contrary to the - plain words of Congress and, therefore, illegal. I do not pause to ledge of the right of judges to address themselves this way. In the opinion of Judge Sbarswood there appears to be another matter of difficulty in reference to these papers. A rule was entered againat the Prothonotary of the court to show why an attachment should not be issued for contempt. That gave rise, to a pro tracted investigation before Judge Sitar:mood, and at the close of the arguments he took time to conalder the points presented. In his opinion he touches on the subject of the genuineness of the sealettached to the papers. Hp says, after hearing th all the case, and the testimony of Moran and oers,that they were not sealed in the office, and therefore fraudulent. It, is in proof in this case that two justices in the Supreme Court pro nounced these papers contrary to the act of Con mesa and illegal,and another pronounced some as forgeries, ana that a die had, been made counter feiting the seal of the court. • It le to be hoped that this will never occur again. This impeaching the dignity of the court and two other justices the seal. So successfully was the seal of the court counterfeited that two judges could not tell it, and that die was;, still in exis tence. This placed the election oaken in a ca rious position,' when papens , were vreaented, whether to accept or reject them. If they ac cepted the, vote, according to the opinion of two judges they could be indicted. If they rejected the vote they could be indicted for it. In it there wait the grave and serious resporsibility of deterinining two' questiOnS—the genuineness of the law and the genuinenesa of the seal. When it is zuolluated that the judge himself had & difficulty in deciding, and the Prothono tary could not recognize his signature, it can readily be seen what great difficultleithere were. The law imparts that full faith must be given to its seal, but it is only when it is a genuine im pression. It is not when papers par porting to bear the seal of the court are presented that they must be accepted without inquiry; that would be terrible. If a paper is genuine, it is the bounden duty of the officer to receive the vote. But irre spective to any opinion of the court, if forgeries itis his duty to reject them. lam here to pass on the question of faith; does the evidence sat isfy rue that they acted in good faith or cor ruptly ? If I had a moment of doubt on the subject, I would send the •relators to a jury, for it would be the duty of a jury to determine. But it is my duty to remember, that as sworn judges of the law, they are entitled to as much respect as any judge, of the bench or in the land. It may, be in this case that the relators inflicted great wrong on voters, and that the seal was genuine. Bat they take that risk. If they do, they will be liable for damages to every man so damaged. But shall I, send them as criminals to the bar of the Quarter Sessions, to go to jail if not able to pay the tine ? I cannot take that responsibility. This is a case of the law maxim which tells me to give full faith and credit to'thests judges, and I am, therefore, obliged to discharge them. XIISCELL.ELNEOUS.
