CITY BULLETIN. lssukA.Nen.---This is a subject the im- T ,,,,rtauee of which is not considered. by mail kind gcliernliY.AT it 'were ",more complied with, there would be lees miEery in the World, in the event of the rieath of beads of families. The large class of citizens who have to labor daily to .maintain themselves and families should be the first to safe. little of their earn-, ings and appropriateit to life insitrance. If such were the case r there Would not be so much wretchedness among the orphan children of workingmen. Within the past two weeks, tire deaths of men, in one locality down town, have made twenty-seven children fatherless, and in two instances there was not a, cent to bury, the dead. The price of ' one glass of whisky per - day would secure a pretty-gOodnmount ofinsurance upon the life of any healthy person of twenty, thirty, or forty years old. This kind of insurance has been reduced to a system, or rather systems and 'While we do notintend to recommend any one of them to particular consideration, yet we feel it to be a journalistic duty, for the sake of humanity, impoverished widows and suffer ingthildren, to call general attention to the subject. A. case came under our notice, a few days since, of the uncertainty of life. A well to-do business man was taking an account of stock "about the middle of December. He had made up his mind to effect an insurance on his life on New Year's day. An agent called at this time to effect the purpose: when he was•informed that the gentleman had died on Christmas, and was buried on the third day thereafter. Such is the uncertainty of life. THE GOVERNOR'S INAUGURATION.—The Good Will Hose Company left for Harris burg this morning to participate in the cere monies attending the inauguration of Gov ernor Geary to-morrow. y The company wa A s accompanid b the National Cornet Band of nkford, e and took along its carriage, which has been handsomely repainted for the occa sion. Thomas Wallace acted as Marshal, and James Todd, Richard Curry and John Deane as Assistants. The Good Will Steam Fire Engine Com pany also left for Harrisburg this morning, and was accomßanied by the Liberty Cornet Rand and Chief Engineer George Downey, of Philadelphia, and Chief Engineer J. A. Weart, of Trenton. Lewis.S. Heins acted as Marshal, and Tbeo. Brackney, John McCor mick, Daniel Clew and William P. Alexander as Assistants. The military representation from the city will be very creditable, and will comprise the Philadelphia Fire Zonaves, Col. A. J. Sellers ; a battalion of ".Ours" Regiment,commaiided by Captain Lewis; the members of the Scott Legion, Col. A. H. Reynolds in command and the Excelsior (colored) Regiment. The Fire Zouaves will leave the city this afternoon,and the other organizations this evening. • Delegations of the Republican Invincibles and of.the Grand Army of the Republic are also going to the Capital to take part in the inauguration ceremonies. 'BURGLARS CAUGHT IN THE Reed and Henry Harris were arrested on Sat urday night upon the charge of attempting burglary. Early in the evening these men had been observed by Lieutenant Steinauer lurking about the neighborhood of Tenth and Green streets. He detailed two officers is citizen's dress to watch them. The accused get into the back yard of the house of Joseph Herr r bio. 1019 Green street. While engaged in cutting a panel out of a door they were ob served by a neighbor, who gave the alarm. The fellows fled, and as they ran into the street they rushed into the arms of the disguised po licemen and were captured. They were locked up at the Central Station to await a bearing. This is the sewed attempt which has been made to rob the house of Mr. Herr. DETERMINED TO KILL HIMSELF.—A man, named Christian Fred, went to Green street wharf, yesterday afternoon, and hung himself to a pile of laths. Some boys discovered him, made a great noise, and then he released himself and got down. ,He was not to be baffled in his attempt on his life,however, and jumped oll'ofthe wharf into the.river. - fie was fished out by a couple of men and was taken to the Seventh District Police Station, where he was allowed to dry his clothing, and was then sentto his home on Fourth street, near Callowbill. ALMOST A SE - R - I - OUS ACCIDENT.-011 Satur day afternoon a man named Schaffi3r, proprie tor of a clothing store on Main street, above Church, in Frankford, discharged a load from his gun in the yard in the rear of his store,pre paratory to cleaning the weapon. He, says that he fired into the ground, but the ball passed through a frame kitchen attached to the house- of Samuel Furness, adjoining. woman who was in the kitchen at the time made a narrow escape, as the ball ,struck within a few inches of her head. GAR-METER INSPECTORS .—The occupants of houses would feel greater security if the gas-meter inspectors were uniformed: These now enter people's dwellings, go into the cub lars, and in some instances remove the cover ing from the meters and do not again wrap them up to prevent freezing. Anybody, under pretence of being an inspector, can demand admittance, and perhaps exhibit their author ity if put to the test. A uniform,however, would be tar more preferable, as im imposi tion could be the more readily detected. JUVENILE F IRE-RU N NERS.-13oys still keep us their old habit of running with fire companiep during alarms of fires,. notwithstanding the orders of Mayor 1+ ox to his policemen.. very few days a raid .is made, however, and some of the juvenile ilie-sharps are captured. Yes terday the Eleventh District Police captured two youths, aged-respectively 19 and 20 years, while running with a fire apparatus at Frank ford road and Dauphin street. They were held in $3OO bail to keep the peace by Alder man Heins. M AN 'STABBE D.—Last night,about 9 o'clock, a party of men who had been on a visit to a house at Front and Laurel streets got into a wrangle .just after they had left the premises. During the trouble one of the number re ceived three stabs in the side. The ,injured man is named Arthur McLeary. "He was se riously butt and was conveyed to lit. Mary's Hospital. It is not known who inflicted the stabs, and no arrests were ade. ALLacEn DISORDER Y-HO USE. Armed with a warrant issue from the Mayor's office, the Reserve C ps, last evening, made a descent upon t , house of Peter Leisner, N 0.727 North F nt street. Leisner and his -wife were ar ted on the charge of keeping a disorderly- ouse.and were held to bail for trial Two female inmates were captured and were held to keep the peace. Several men, who were in the house at the time, escaped. PnomoTEn.—Mr. Drayton $.

Tim FOLLOWING description of one of our well-known citizen from the Indian- apolis ?Sentinel : I - Correspondence of the Sontinelj DEidt .SENTINEL.—After devoting my atten tion for a week to the commercial interests^of Philadelphia, I find the manufacturers and merchants vrefking up to the importance of securing the immense western trade, which is now placed more directly within their reach by the late consolidation of the Pennsylvania Central with other ra, a direct, unbroken line ilroa of tra ds nsportation now to-In dianapolis; your celebrated railroad centre. A spirit of determination is aroused to extend their commerce through your city by a liberal use of the -of-.your ..vale- _ able paper, learning, as they have, the intrinsic value of printer's ink. Bidding adieu to mine host, Mr. S. M,. Hen hugs, proprietor of the American Hotel, lo cated on Chestnut street, opposite Indepen dence Hall, which, by the way, is one, of the most pleasant homes to be found in the country, I started to make my last call for the week, previous to taking, my departure for New York, on Dr. Schenck, at his office. On arriving at my destination I learned that the Doctorhad just returned from a duck hunt, with a number of friends who had accom, panied him in his private pleasure steamer named " Seaweed," in honor of the success of " Schenck's Seaweed Tonic." Having a desire to see the beautiful boat, 1 put in my appear ance at the dock where she was moored, and was kindly invite hed by her owner to step aboard for a trip up the Delaware, which in vitation I accepted with many anticipations of the pleasure I was to have. With a numer ous company on board, we were soon steam ing up the river, and swiftly gliding by the beautiful residences dotting its banks on either side. The " Seaweed" was built by one of Philadelphia's best boat-builders—is some what smaller than the Ohio river steamers, and is fitted up with all the modern improve- multi; and conveniences, .To use a nautical expression, she was as taut and trim a little craft as I ever saw affoat,and we passengers had nothing to •do but enjoy ourselves. Just as the spires and steeples of the city were receding from sight we were summoned to the elegant state;room, where a tempting repast bad been kerved up for our benefit. It is almost needless to say that we promptly re sponded to the call, and commenced the work of destruction with a will. The dinner over, we returned to the cabin and indulged in a social smoke. Our fragrant Havanas'were scarcely finished when the boat touched the landing-place near Dr. • Schenck's rural .residence. Disembarking, we reached the house after a short walk, and were heartily welcomed. After 'passing a very pleasant evening we all retired to dream over , the pleasures of the day. A morning stroll over his farm, which com prises five hundred acres, three hundred of which are under good cultivation, convinced me of the fact that the Doctor follows his agricultural pursuits with the same energy as helms applied himself- to curing that dread disease, consumption. On one acre, last sea-. son, he produced4so bushels of potatoes,_ one bushel, weighing sixty-five pound.s,numbering sixty-two potatoes. 1 was shown one carrot, grown on this farm, which was 'twenty-six niches long, and another twenty-two inches in circumference. His horses, cattle and sheep are proof of his good judgment of fine-blooded stock. In feet, Dr. Schenck is one of the first farmers of Pennsylvania. His farm is situated' only eighteen miles by water and sixteen by rail from the city of Philadelphia. Consider ing that the Philadelphia and Trenton Rail road made it a passenger station on their lino, and honored the same with his name, some time ago g when it was much smaller, be is justly looking forWard.with a great deal of hope to see " Schenck's Station" a thriving city at no distant day. He has secured all the land he wants, and has commenced laying out and selling lots of a few acres each which will Make very desirable homes for persons doing business in Philadelphia' who wish to avoid high rents. His estate contains a beautiful grove, at which Dr. Schenck generously gave the Philadelphia Washington Grays a pic rite, including a free train to and from the grounds, last summer, in honor of his son's, P. H. Schenck, membership. This grove is reached direct by steamers and sail boats or by rail, and is bound to be the favorite pic-sic grounds in that vicinity. On the grounds adjacent to his mansion be has built several fine houses, which he is renting to persons from the city. These, with his farming tenants, constitute 'quite a population, and give Schenck's Station a lively appearance even at the pre sent day. Dr. Schenck' will soon announce and create a sensation by. announcing to the . public the rare medical virtues which he is convinced that the water of a spring which is situated in his lawn possesses. Now that he has secured all the land he wishes for the town project, there is no longer any reason for keeping this second Saratoga a secret. ' Dr. Schenck, however, owes his tame to the medicines whith he has discovered for the cure of consumption, and a few, words about his method of treating this disease may not prove uninteresting. In the first place, be does not claim that all cases of consumption can be eared, but does assert that often when patients have the most alarm ing symptoms, such as a .violent cough, creep ing chills, night sweats and general debility, even to such a degree that they are obliged to lie in bed, and when they have even - been given up by their physicians they need not despair. His treatment is unlike that of other physicians. He does not aim to check the disease at once, and leave the causes smothered to show themselves iu a worse form ; but 'by the use of his Mandrake Pills lie restores ahea,lthy tone to the organs of diges tion. The digestive powers in good order, food has its proper etlect, the system is invig, orated, and the lungs begin to exercise their function in a. normal and healthy manner; the healing power of his Pulmonic Syrup,com pletes the, cure. That thousands who have, been cured by the use of his celghrated medicines and the world at large owe Dr. Schenck a debt of gratitude, no one, will pretend to doubt. It gives me much pleasure to announce that his son, J. H. Schenck, Jr., who has recently graduated with the highest honors from one of the best medical colleges in the' United States, bids fair to equal his father as a successful phy sician. Wishing my amiable host ands hostess, as well as their affectionate family and chosen Ilends, adieu, I have inscribed on memory's aige the anticipated pleasure'more than W illed. IMPORTANT SA LE OF BEAL ESTATE.-To morrow, at M. Thomas Sr Sons' sale, will be offered the lot of ground situated at the north west :corner of Broad street and Girard avenue. It will be sold either as au entire lot, or in lots of twenty-five feet front. The site is unequalled by any in the city, and it is doubtful, indeed, if any such site exists in any' other city. Being at the junction of the two most imposing and rapidly improving avenues, having a magnificent front of two hundred and eighty feet on Broad street, and a depth of one hundred and sixty feet on Girard avenue, with Carlisle and Stiles streets as their parallel streets, making four fronts, and the grotuid:-being . the &lest and most elevated in the city. it is difficult to conceive' of a ntore covetable piece of property. As, in a few yearS, Broad street .and Girard avenue will be the centre of the city, haYing for its surroundings mansions of the most superb character, to say nothing of the Lincoln monument to be placed there in a few months, itis to be hoped that the property in question will be secured by some judicious capitaliSt or capitalists, capable of holding and converting it into either a grand public building or such private mansion or mansions as the occasion may require and the site demands.
