OITY • BUWECTIN.
Gnaws Jim Fassitinrmanz—The Grand Jury
of the United finites District Court ~ made a final
presentment yeeterday, from which the folloWingr
extracts were,:, made. They ea*: That in the
wimps of their luiestigatioes they have; been
painfully impressed by the gigantic 'and wicked
trauds which rers ben from time practiced
the Government, by the owners of whisky distil
leries and elbow, in the Eastern District of the
`State, and the base and dishonest means resorted
to to defraud the Government of the legal tax
imposed by Congress. That some of the men
holding positious that would naturally Screen
them.from a suspicion in the minds'of their fel-.
low men Piet they by any temptation lend them
selves to so nefarious and dishonest a traffic, are
nevertheless guilty and subject to indictment.
That, the partiea . petty cases heard before
them on charges of , distilling spirits withont a
license, and the carmen who nave been arrested
and put on their trial for secretly conveying it
away in the darkness of midnight to atoretr
waselitnises, and places other than the law dealt;
nates, butombody a corporal's guard compared
to the formidable army that .Hes behind them.
That the evil is deeper and wider than the cases
above stated would seem to indicate, and exists
among men in , official stations, who have hereto
fore escape d sspicion solely upon the ground of
their poons, and their•-connection --witk the
Government, whose interest they are morally
and legally bound to protect.
That they are persuaded a regular systematic
connivance exists between certain parties, In
elading government agents,detectives and others,
in the fraudulent manufacture and sale of spirit
sons Liquore,thereby depriving the Government of
its just dries, and distributing among the people
a poisonous dietillation,as destructive to nestth
as it is demoralizing and degrading to those who
indulge in it.
That they believe from the investigations they
have made that the greatest evil the law has had
to contend with has been in the facility with
which cases have , been settled at Washington.
For two years or more, whenever a case of any
magnitude was likely to undergo a judicial in
vestigation, •the friends of the party or parties
implicated would , repair to Washington, where
they have been too often successful in having
proceedings instituted and acomprtimise effected.
such a eystem-earries svith it its own condemn*,
lion and shuts out all cases of magnitude, ie.:T
ing the smaller cases only to be adjusted by the
Court.
Tho presentment closes with notices of the
Marshal's former operations among the illicit
distilleries of the old Richmond district.
TEN Hosts MISSIONARY Socur7.—This old
benevolent Institution of the city is about com
mencing the active operations of the season,
Ina will hold its 33d anniversary to-morrow even
ing. The President, George H. Stuart, Esq., will
preside, and the exercises will be of an interest
ing character. They will be as follows?' Singing
of the hymn, " Thy way, not mine, 0 Lord,"
followed by the reading of the Scriptures. Mr.
Stuart will then make an appropriate address,
after which the , psalm, " Praise God," will be
sung.. The annual report will then be read by
the secretary, Mr. lioellick. The report will
show that during the year the managers have
operated - with success among the poor of the
city, relieving the immediate wants of the sick
and destitute, by giving them coal, groceries,
wood and clothing, and medical aid where the
cases demanded it. The report also will show
the pleasing tact that there have been a
large number of children of destitute
families provided with homes in the city and
country, and that they are now being taught
useful trades, and their temporal and spiritual
wants provided for by those under whose charge
they have been placed. The Managers also keep
up annual visitations among the children to
look - into their condition and watch the
progress they are making in their new Forms.
The Treasurer's report will also be read, showing
that the funds of the society have been kept up
through the liberality of a benevolent public,
backed, by the efforts of the eolleeting agent. Mr.
Toland, who is now as heretofore making his
visitations among the subscribers.
At the close of the report an address will be
made by Rev. Jas. Nelll, after which the hymn
"Help us, 0 Lord, thy yoke to bear" will be
anog by the audience. An address will then be
made by Rev. A. A. Willits, after which the
doxology will be sung to the tune of "Old Hun
dred," and the audience dismissed With the bene
diction. From the interesting programme thus
presented, the audience will no doubt be large,
and the contributions to the Society. of the most
liberal character.
CORNER STONE LATINO IN WEST FRILADEL
rme.—On Thursday last, 10th inst., the Thirty
eighth Street M. E. Church, of which Rev. H. A.
Cleveland is pastor laid the corner stone of Its
new chapel, at Thirty-eighth and Hamilton
streets. Appropriate and inApressive addresses
were delivered by Rev. A. J. Kynett, D. D., Rev.
W. J. Stevenson and Rev. M. Simpson, D. D.,
Bishop of the M. E. Church. The free-will offer
ings of the people amounted to a little more than
$16,000. The site is elevated, rocomy,central and
commanding; no finer could have been selected.
The edifice is to be built of Trenton stone,
and in
the Gothic style of architecture. It will be two
stories high, with Sabbath school,vestry and lec
ture rooms, and a study for the pastor. The
audience room, 40 by 80 feet, exclusive of recess
for pulpit, organ and choir, 9 by 19, will occupy
the entire area of the second floor. The entrance
porch, with boldly moulded and recessed door
way, and the five light traceried windows, and a
Belfry over it, will constitute the principal fea
ture of the front. The plainness of the walls will
be broken by double recessed jambs to windows,
anti by projecting buttresses. The main audi
ence room will be finished with what is
usually termed an Open roof, formed with
arched,, principal rafters, moulded on the
face, with a rich cornice of wood, at
the intersection of walls and roof. The spaces
between principal rafters and purlines are to be
plastered and tinted. The pews and skirtings
are to be of black walnut, and the walls floated
and tinted of a worm-stone tint, harmolziug
with the onk staining of the open root.
The effect of the root, combined with the lien
tints of the stained glasS, and the dark tone of
the walnut fittings, will be most pleasing, and
will constitute au effective and church-like inte
rior. The edifice is designed and its erection en.
pei intended by Messrs. Fraser, Farness tk
Hewitt, of this city; John McUlare, Esq.. oullder.
It will cost, when completed, about $40,000.

Ward presided. Dr. Shepherd made a powerful
address, showing conclusively that the use of in

and 05 renewed efforts in the cause of total absti
nence. Thomas M. Uoleatari made an address
and argued that the only hope for a speedy tri
umph of temperance principles rested with the
children and youth of the country; that they

It is called a sofa-bed, is useful as well as ornamental,
and is an article which no well-conducted household
should be without. It is simple in lie structure, re
quiring but ten seconds to transfer it from a sofa to a
comfortable bed or vice versa. Its special maim is that
as a sofa it has a aprihg-back and as a bed forces a
spring mattress. Underneath the mattress is a recess,
suitable for placing wearing apparel of every descrip
tion. It la now being introduced on all our principal
railroad and steamboat lines. ' It can bo made in any
size, and at any price. The public would do well to call
onlir. 1., see it and examine the workings of it, and
without doubt they will_ be repaid for their trouble.

DRAMATIC AND MUSICAL.
—The performance of Lucrszia Borgia at the
Academy of Music last night was, in many re
spects, the most satisfactory that has been given
during the present season. The opera itself is
one of the beat in Mr. Maretzek's repertoire. It
is strongly mid - flied with all the characteristics of
the composer. The melodies are profuse, and ex
ceedingly graceful and beautiful; the orchestra
tion is remarkable for its dramatic effects; the
tragedy of the intenser episodes of the drama le
fully developed in the musical climaxes, and all
the moods and varieties of passion, whether of
tenderness or terror,. anger or despair, find ample
and beautiful expression. The whole work bears
the broad arrow mark of genius—genias of a
nobler and better stamp than that of other men
who preceded. Donizetti in the same peculiar
school. The music of Lucresia is as fresh and
spirited and striking to-day as it was when first
written. It captivates the popular ear with its
flowing rythm, while it pleases the artist with
its elevated sentiment and the ingenuity of its
construction.
Madame La Grange personated "Lucrezia" last
evening in a manner that deserves warm com
mendation. Her voice bas but the shadow of its
former power; it has lost the splendid beauty
which, in former times, used to enthrall and en
chant her listeners. Her singing is merely art,
unassisted by nature. But even now her execu
tion is most superb. She slugs with an ease and
grace and fluency, which are peculiar to hef, and
to which few artists of more recent fame have at
tained. Her powers were displayed to fullest
advantage last evening in the famous allegro
passage in the third scene of the prologue. This
is extremely difficult, and, usually, it is omitted.
Madame La Grange bravely attempted it, and It
is but fair to say that she executed it superbly,
although the audience, apparently oblivious to
the great merit of the performance, and the cour
age required to undertake it, failed to reward the
singer with an encore.
But whatever fault may be found with the vo
calization of La Grange, certainly there can be
none bat words of praise bestowed upon her act
ing. We believe her to be the greatest actress
upon the lyric stage. She has much of Ristori's force
and intensity, and she contrives to give vivid
meaning to all the varying passion of the part,
whether It be tragedy or comedy, whether it pre
sents strong contrasts or a single hue. The char
acter of "Lucrezla" affords an opportunity for
the highest form of histironic display, and Mad
ame La b range made the most of it. In this re
spect, at least, her effort was worthy of her rep
utation; and the calls before the curtain at tue
close of every act, were such recognitions of her
excellence as she was entitled to. Sig. Brignoli
did not sing as well as usual; and Sig. A.ntonucci
seemed to have only partial control of his fine
voice,but despite this miefortuno,his performance
was very satisfactory.
Signor Brignoli's Grand March created some
enthusiasm, and its author was crowned and
crushed with flowers. The march is a very ex
cellent composition, eminently suitable for a
grand army,
but from its fortissimo effects better
calculated to furnish enjoyment to the rear
guard, than to the van.
This very successful opera season will close
tonight with Von Weber's famous Der Frey
seh iitz. The house can hardly be more crowded
than it was last_ evening, but the audience will
certainly be as large. The Germans will, of
course, be present in numbers, for this opera is
unavoidably a favorite with them. More than
any other it is German iu sentiment and feeling,
in the character of its personages; and in its
magnificent music. The amatory passages are
demonstrative after the German fashion, and the
passion of the hero ib ardent enough to satisfy
the requirements of the most enthusiastic be
liever in the superiority of lovers in the Father
land. The diabolism is German In conception
ancLexecution, and the shooting match belongs
to the same nationality. Twenty years ago,. the
whole Teutonic race went mad over this opera,
and it still retains its hold upon their tastes and
affections. Its intrinsic merit is so great, how
ever, that it may have nearly equal fascination
for Americans, and with La Grange, Habelmann
and other good artists in the cast, it is very cer
tain that the Germans will not entirely monopo
lize the Academy to-night.
—Ole Bull will give two concerts on the after
noon and evening of Saturday, the 19th inst.
—A most excellent performance'will be given
this evening at the Theatre Comique, Seventh at.,
below Arch.
—The first concert of the Mendelssohn Society,
this season, will be given at Musical Fund Hall,
on Thureday evening next, under the direction
of Mr. Jean Louis. The programme is very at
tractive, and the performers are of the best class.
—Mrs. D. P. Bowers will appear at the Walnut

Monday Charles Readu's drama, Nell Gwynne.
—The Chestnut Street Circus Ccmpany an
nounce a performance for this evening which will
eclipse all that have preceded it.
—IVo/nes continue to be at Bay at the Arch
Street Theatre. When they are finally and hap
pily abolished, Mrs. Drew will electrify the public
with Duly's sensation, A Flash of Lightning. Tula
piece will boplaced on the — stage very handsomely,
one of the effects being three hundred feet of
Hudson river panorama. The cause of all the
agony in the play la the - insane conduct of a flash
of lightning in wandering into a room, mounting
to the mantel-piece, fining a lot of jewelry, and
depositing it in aneal-scuttle. An original, if
not a reasonable idea.
' —A miscellaneous entertainment will be given
at the American Theatre this evening.
—On Tuesday night next a grand concert will
be given at Concert Hall, in which the following
celebrated artists will appear: Mr. Carl Wolf
sohn, MIS. Mozart, Mrs. Behimpf, Miss Cunning
ton, Messrs. Jean Louis, George T. Bishop and
thigh A. Clarke.
—The Conservatory of Music, S. E. corner of
Teeth and Walnut streets, will begin its regular

conservatory has a preparatory course for be•
glnneis, and an academic department for those
more advanced. The graduating classes will re
ceive diplomas at the end of the prescribed
course. Now pupils should enter their names at
