to give to' it that force and effect, which'nt;

the principles, therefore, upon' which:-this

to employ, but freely, and Without obstruction

The relator appears to bent' sound mind and
of mature years and until it anpears 'by evi-,
, . dence that he is linable to act for himself, the
Court must treat him as he evidently desires
to betreated.
, As this writ did not issue at, the prayer of
the 33istrict Attorney, although it is the• Co

And now October.B, 1869, the body of the

upon the return of this writ, and he being in
structed by the Court as to his legal right to

pearing by an affidavit pf the relator that he

There was a great crowd in and abotit the ,

CITY BULLETIN.
THE MnAnows.—ln cons equence .o the
recent freshets' carrying away parts of the

Delaware, a large amount of valuable' prop

Soutlezark canal" to the Lazaretto.: Martins
ville, in the.eastern part of the First Ward, a
collection ot rickety old bnildings inhabited
,by poor people,' inundated. The eastern
part of the Pennsylvania Railroad track, for
nearly two miles, is several feet under water.
This overflow ,Continue • until, the banks
are fully • repaiied, which requires hard
work - 'td accomplish,. -because of the
rising of the tide twice in every twenty-four
hours. • Great numbers of cattle usually graze
uponthe meadows - until the butcherS in the
southern part of the city are - ready to convert
them into beef. The willow gardens, located
on both 'sides of Stone House lane, below the
;Girard' barn, are 'completely surrounded' by
, water. , These willows are used in the manu
facture of baskets, and are, protected from in
cursion.s by large, deep and dangerous ditches.
The dairymen in this locality, who supply
many customers with milk, are compelled to
bring the lacteal fluid' in boats to the 'upper

hearing, last el/ening, before , Alderman Heins.
It seems that at the meeting of the Canvassers
of the tenth division, ElghtgenthWard, a
man made application tube ,placed u pon the
list. Benson and Henbeffer were produced as
vouchers, and statedthat they had not known
the man before that, day i .but they had been to
hiR house and been introduced to his faintly.
Without any warrant, the. police. officers ar
rested them , and dragged them away. 'At that
time they were held for. another, hearing. In
the meantime, the man. for, whom, they at
tempted to vouch produced two other house
holders;and everything being'satisfactory, his
name was placed on the list by the CanvasserS.
After the hearing, last evening, the Alderman
discharged Benson and Henheffer: We under
s-tanci that warrants for the arrest of theno
licemen are to be procured.
COISCEALEI)EADLY 'WEAroxs.- 4 -There is
alaw.againSt the'earryingof concealed deadly
weapons, although the right to be in'arras
for self-defence Is admitted by. the "bill of
rights." Ex-Judge King,'When on the bench,
decided that it was the intent virith Which the
weapon was carried tbat made the'. offence.
Under this , decision, some of the present police
officers might be convicted if properly tried
before the Criminal Court.. They suppose
that because they are municipal officers they
have, the right to bear. tire-;arms secretly.' ,In
this they make a grand mistake: .' As some of
them have used their pistols, violently
rioters, which can be sworn to by respectable
citizens, it would be well for the Mayor to give
thenisonie instruction on this point. When
the Marshal's policemen were first appnliated
they were armed with revolvers, but even in

MusismATs.—The " Neck" abounds witi,
muskrats, which, like all amphibious animalg,
must breathe the air. The overflow has driven
these animals from their accustomed holes or
haunts, and some "of - the reed-bird gunnerS
.have turned their attention to killing,tlieni.
muskrat is a clean animal; and very shrewd,
and it requires more than'ordinary skill to geit
'a shot at them. Almost every, stump , that ap
pears above the water, at ,the, present time,
contains one or two of these rats, `.They are
killed for several purposes,:. When'Shot inthe
