A Notorious Ctiaracteti.—The residents of Franklin county, Pa_, for some time past have been greatly troubled by the depredations of a notorious gang of thieves and incendiaries. Dvrvll ange, stores, and barns have been brokon open, robbed, and bred, and Chamboraburg a.nd Uroen castle suffered severely. Carlisle was also visited and plundered by the outlaws. On last Wednesday night two large warehouses at Grcencastlo were robbed and fired. The flames died out in one of the buildings, but the other was entirely destroyed. A party of six or eight strangers, who claimed to pe returned volunteers, and who busied themselves about the scene of tho conflagration, becamn ob- jects of suspicion, and this fact scouts to have reached their ears, for they suddenly took tlieiu aelves off while the fire was still raging. The next morning tho people of tho town turned out and pursued the gang, and they succeeded in Becuring three of tho men. One, who appeared to be the leader, gavo tho namn of George W. lljlce, and he said ho belonged to Captain Spoar's com pany of the Scott Legion. Upon his person were found a number of valuables stolon from different places thnt had been robbed and fired, and among ■ thorn was the deed for the store which had been robbed and burned tlie night bofore. The villains wero placed in prison, and tbo au thorities at Greencastlo wrote to Captain Spear to ascertain whether liacc had belonged to tho Scott JjCgiOn, an assertion which they were loth to be lieve. Captain Spear happenod to be perfectly familiar with the character and history of Itace and he at once wrote back to secure the prisoner ■or he would give them the slip. ’ Itace is a Philadelphian, and he served an ap prenticeship at machine making in this city. Some thirteen or fourteen years ago he was a member of a fire company up town, and ho was engaged in re peated acts of incendiarism and robbery, lie was finely detected, and tlio burning of Thompson’s :saw mill and lumberyard, at Eleventh and But tonwood streets, and other acts of arson, wore fas tened upon him. lie was convicted nnd sentenced to twelve years’ imprisonment in the Eastern Peni tentiary. While confined in tho institution, he was set to wvork to repair e-mo looks and keys belonging to the prison, and while thus employed he managed to make a duplicate key for tho main gate on Coates Street. One day, whilo tho turnkey was tempora lity absent from his post. Race unlocked the door of tho prison and walked off. After making his osenpe. Be went to the State of Now York, where lie ehtainart employment ns a mnohiuist in oho of the shops of the Hudson River Railroad Company. He earned good wages, hut tho spirit of mischief Was too strong in him to bo repressed, and ho would go up to Albany in the evening, commit a robbery or an act of incendiarism, and return to bis work shop in time to resume his honest employment in Ihe morning. Ho was finally dotontod, nnd, upnn discovering lii? identity with tho fugitive prisoner from Cherry Hill, ho was returned to this city, and placed in his old quarters. He behaved himself well in tho main after his restoration to prison; but just before tlio close of his term of imprisonment he indulged in threats of vengeance against certain parties. About ono vunr flinch he was released from prison, his term of "sor vice having expired, amt, upon tho day of his dis charge, Fire Marshal Blackburn visited him in his cell and impressed upon him the peril he would in cur by resuming his old practices, now that his per son and character were so well known, and that he was an object of suspicion. Race made promises of reformation, and upon his Telease he went to Allegheny city, where he went to work at his trade. On tho breaking out of the war he came to this city, and enrolled himself in Captain Spear's company in tho Scott Legion, and lie served with that regiment during the time it was in General Patterson’s division in Virginia. During his absence be behaved himself welt, and he won the good opinion of Captain Spear, who believed that he had thoroughly reformed. After the return home of the Legion. Race or ganized a gang of scoundrels liko himself, and they want into 1 rank-tin and Cumberland counties, trhere they committed the outrages which wo have already narrated. Captain Spear (who is also a lieutenant of police) and Fire Marshal Blackburn hare taken the matter in hand, and if the arch villain does not get his deserts in Franklin county, it-will not be fur the want of a knowledge of his former rascnllilcs. D’Epeseuil Zouaves. —Lieut. Howard Buck, formerly of tlio National Guard, of this city, but now of the (VFpeneuil Zouaves, of New York, has £>een detailed to recruit for his regiment. The d. Epeneuil Zouaves are officered by old and expe rienced Frcnva svKlxcrSj who have soon service dii many of the sanguinary fields of Europe. Wc un derstand that the Secretary of War has consented that this regiment shall be organized and disciplined according fo tho regulations of the French army— every man becoming a thorough soldier, a fine gymnast, a skilful fencer. The uniform is very showy, being in the style of tho Zouave Algeria. The regiment is to be armed with the Enfield rifle nnd sabre bayonet. The Zouaves promise to be ihe most dashing corps that will leave New York city. Tho regiment is at present encamped on Staten Island, New York. Those of our young men, new or returned volunteers, who wish to unite themselves with a regiment where a thorough dis cipline will be adopted, a proper esprit dti corps cultivated, efficient officers, and an attractive uni form, should, present themselves at onco to the re cruiting Station of Lieutenant Buck, No. 230 South Fifth street. A Philadelphia Lawyer Stoipixc Key- TRCKY. — Mmk Mundy, Esq., of this city, who. during the last Presidential campaign, became prominent ns an ardent supporter of the Bell and Everett cause, is still a faithful advocate of the cause of Union. On the 19th insfc., (as we learn from the correspondence of the Louisville Courier.] he addressed a large assemblage at Georgetown, Kentucky, and spoke for one hour and a half. The correspondent adds: “ The large audience gave him a respectful and silent attention. No disturbance of any kind was made. They heard him patiently, though indig nantly, through his long discourse, he having, Among other things, had tho audacity to charge that.

Dr. Tyng spoke with much seyerity concerning tho character of some of the men who were appointed to chaplaincies in the army. He also said that in the hospital at Washington, some of the surgeons ate the delicacies sent to the sick and wounded soldiers. Dr. Brninerd denied that this occurrednt present, though it might have taken place earlier In the campaign. He also commended tho present ma nagement of rhe hospitals. fir. George H. Stuart announced that a meeting Would take place at the rooms of the Young Men's Christian Association, in this city, to further the cause of tract distribution, and al3o offered to re ceive at his office, No. 13 Bank street, any contri* feutions to that end. _ After a benediction by Dr. Brainerd. the meet ing adjourned.

A xeport similar to those presented at other meetings, and a set of resolutions directing that both civil and criminal proceedings against the officers of the in stitution be prosecuted, were presented and adopted. A slight disturbance took place on aocount of the presence of an individual supposed to be in the interest of the directors, but, after pom© consultation, he was allowed to remain. Is the Wire Bridge Safe ?—During the last three or four days vast crowds have been at tracted to the Wire Bridge, to witness the perform ances of Mr. Denier on tho tight-rope.

The committee appointed to inquire into the ex pediency of employing a homeopathic physician, for such out-door poor as inny prefer suoh treatment, presented two reports. The majority of tho committee, George Ercty and S. Taylor, made a report declaring it inexpedient at the present time, and offered a resolution to he discharged from any further consideration of the subject. The minority report, presented by Mahlon S. Dickinson, declares that many of the poor Trill need yueli treatment, as they have most faith in it. A resolution attached to the report provides for the election of four homeopathic physicians. Tho majority report was finally adopted. A resolution to cleanse tho house formerly occu pied by tho small-pox cases, and fit it up for the residence of the doorkeeper, was agreed to. Mr. Sorvor offered a resolution that all warrants upon tho City Treasurer drawn by the Board, and which have been unclaimed for oror one year, be cancelled, and that the City Controller bo informed of said action, and that he be furnished with an abstract of such cancelled warrants. Agreed to. The steward reported the house receipts to be $82.25. A number of bills were rend and ordered to be paid. Mr. Dickinson offered a resolution that no hospi tal patients shall be subjected to the punishment of the shower-bath.

The requisition was then read, Mr. Dickinson made a few remarks, advising the Board, in view of tho rapidly increasing prices of tea, coffee, sugar, and molasses, that a supply of those articles bo laid in by tho Board before tho prices advance still more. Ho would put it in the form of a resolution, and submit it to the Board. Mr. Server thought that the thing should be voted down. He was in favor of trusting in Pro vidence a little more. Tho yeas and nays were called on the adoption of the resolution; it was found that no quorum was voting. The stewards requisition was granted, and the Board then adjourned.

They now resort to a dodge to secure the business of the policy-backers, which, combined with the tickets, will largely increase their profits, besides giving them a full monopoly of the nefarious traffic. They threaten to cease drawing the num bers if their demand is not complied with, The policy-bnckers of this city nre, ns a olnre, ignor«ut men, and, it is thought, will soon succumb to the shrewd tricksters who find them pliant tools for their own aggrandizement. Can not the authorities interfere and cheat both parties of their victims ? Fire Yesterday 3lor.vi.vg, —About half past 8 o'clock, yesterday morning, a fire broke out in a one-story building, partially brick and part frame, located on the cast side of Beach street, above Palmer. The structure was owned by Mr. George Stockham, and occupied by Dr. I. I>. Knight as a coal-oil manufactory. Tiie fire spread with great rapidity, and the building, as well as its contents, was entirely destroyed. The loss of Dr. Ivnight was about $1,006, which is partially covered by insurance. The fire originated around one of the stills, and was accidental. A tlireo-gtory brick dwelling adjoined the factory on the south. The roof of this builillng took fire, and was partially burned off. This structure also belonged to Mr. Stockham. It was occupied by John Smith and Joseph Weaver. Tiie families suc ceeded in rescuing the most of their furniture, but in a broken condition. The whole building was flooded with water, and was damaged to the extent of S5OO or S3OO, which is insured in the Fire Asso ciation. Slight Fire. —A fire occurred at six o’clock last evening, at the dry-house of F. Gage’s woollen mills, at Fifteenth and Hamilton streets. Damage trifling. LEGAL INTELLIGENCE. Quarter Sessions— Judge Ludlow.—The second period of tho August term eommoneod yes terday morning, and a number of applications from the jurors on the new panel to be excused from at tendance were heard. Defaulting jurors were fined $lOO. During the early part of the morning a writ of habeas corpus was heard to procure the release of a volunteer who had enlisted while yet under 21, and without the consent of his parents. The officer who had him in charge Stated to the court that the boy, when he game to the recruiting station, represented himself ns over IS years of age, and he took an oath to that effect before the mustering officer, and also svrore that his parents had consented to his enlisting. Judge Ludlow, in discharging the boy, remarked that the young men iu tho city should bear in mind that, in thus swearing falsely to their age and tho consent of parents, they made themselves liable to a charge of perjury. Southern News. The Memphis. .Appeal of-the 24tli reports seeing a private telegram from Paducah, stating that a meeting of citizens on the 23d. passed resolutions requesting Governor Magoffin to propcrl}' protect the citizens of that section of the State against such occurrences as the late arrest of her Kentuckians in Ballard county, by armed ruffians from Cairo, and the subsequent capture of the steamer Terry by the ’ Federal gunboat Conestotn. announcing that if Governor Magoffin does not give that pro tcction,,they will call on Tennessee and the Con federate States. The same paper also states that Gov. Magoffin telegraphically proffered the aid required, instruct ing J. M. Johnson, Senator from Paducah, to visit Cairo, and demand of General Prentiss by what authority the arrest and capture was made, and report. The Appeal trusts Gov. Magoffin will issuca simi lar proclamation to Clnih. Jackson. A Board, consisting of the aldermen of Memphis, has been appointed a committee to confer, with Gen. Polk on tlie subject of impressment. The Avalanche says the deck hands of the steamboat having refused to work upon Con federate steamers, the commanding general has ordered all such to be taken. The deck hands had concealed themselves. In some cases farmers have boon taken on this order, mid tost evening James Plunkett, a deck hand, was arrested, and attempt ing to escape was seriously wounded by a shot. The Avalanche condemns the state of things which forms the basis of the mayor and aldermen’s ac tion. The Petersburg Express of the 17th inst. con fesses to solicitude on the subject of a coal supply during the winter. It says : On looking about at the wharves, we find every coalyard empty, and we might also say .swept. Tho approach of cold weather makes us all feel solici tous on the subject of fuel. We hare become so dependent on the Pennsylvania mines, that tho in terruption of supplies from that source will be pro ductive of much Inconvenience. And in another article it an equally im portant question: “ The question of how to supply ourselves with salt is becoming a very interesting and important one. From its present scarcity its value ha 3 be come greatly onhamicd. and it now readily com mands from's7 to 57.00 pci* sack. At the auction Sale of Liverpool fine salt, by Messrs. W. PanniU & Son, yesterday, one hundred w«l<* were offered, the larger portion of which—rome sixty or seventy sacs—brought §(> to $6.50.' None was sold under this price. Let our capitalists look well to tho matter.” Tennessee, it seems, is beginning to threaten Ken tucky. A letter dated at Georgetown, Kentucky, August 39th, says: ‘- To-day, being our regular county court day, was selected bj Colonel Roger W. Hanson as an appropriate occasion for making a very inflammato ry and traitorous apeeeh. His object was to stir up a hellish spirit of war. He began with an attack upon the camp in Garrard county. He declared that, if those troops are not disbanded in thirty days, they will he put down at the point of the bay onet. He said he saw Governor Harris, of Tennes see. a few days ago. and that Harris declared that he should consider it a violation of Kentucky neu trality, and that Kentucky would huv© to metit 50,000 Tennessee troops in battle un-ay if those camps were not speedily vacated. Thirty days are given to you, Union men of Kentucky ; use those thirty days to a good advantage, or a civil war will confront us with all its horrors."’ Jeff. Davis has followed up the passage of tho “ act respecting alion enemies” in the rebel Con gress by issuing the following orders for the punish ment of loyal men : “ The following regulations arc hereby established respecting alien enemies, under the provisions of an act approved Bth August, IStil, entitled • An act respecting alien enemies.* “ I < Immediately after the expiration of the term of forty days from the date of the foregoing pro clamation, it shall he tho duty of the several dis trict attorneys, marshals, and other officers of the Confederate States, to make complaint against any aliens or alien enemies coming within the purview of the act aforesaid, to the eml that tho several courts of the Confederate States, and of each State having jurisdiction, may order the removal of such aliens or alien enemies beyond tho territory of tho Confederate States, or their restraint and confine ment, according to the term* of said law. “2 The marshals of the Confederate States fire hereby directed to apprehend all aliens against whom complaints may be iniulcundcr said law, and to hold them in strict custody until the final or der of the court, taking special care that such nlicns obtain no information that could possibly bo made useful to the enemy. “ 3. Whenever the removal of any alien beyond the limits of the Confederate States is ordered by any competent authority, under the provisions of tho said law, the marshal shall proceed to execute the order in person, or by deputy, or other discreet person, in such manner as to prevent tho alien so removed from obtaining any information that could be used to the prejudice of the Confederate States. “ 4. Any alien who shall return to these Stntos during the war, nfter having been removed there from under the provisions of Said law, shall hr re garded and treated as an alien enemy, and. if made prisoner, shall be at once dolirorod over to the nearest military authority, to ho dealt with as n spy or ns a prisoner of war. as the case may re quire.” 2.CSS •>. .2.2 CS Tho transportation of a number of guns, intended for tile loyal Kentucky troops, through the town of Lexington, Kentucky, created a disturbance. The Louisville Journal says : “ Vc hear, that, when it was ascertained that tho guns were coming, .Tulin C. Breckinridge hustled about, arousing his Secessionists to rosist their pas sage. At the same timo armed aid was summonod from Harrison and Scott. In the meanwhile, 1)r. Itudlcv mustered two companies of the Homo Guards to sustain tho Government. There was a very fair prospect of a collision, but tho sudden and very imposing appearance of the cavalry from Camp Hobinson put an and at once to ail danger of a breach of the pence. All honor to tho gallant Union tuen of Lexington The Raleigh (If, C.) llegiater, referring to the Legislature of that State, says, in its issue of the 14th: _ « This body will reconvene in extraordinary ses sion to-morrow. The Supreme Court having deci ded the slay law passed at tho last session to bo unconstitutional, we presume tiie Legislature will address itself to the task of devising some measure of relief fur the people, which will not bo liable to the objections which constrained tho Supremo Court to pronounce the former enactment unconsti tutional. A measure of relief in somo shape or oilier is imperatively called for by tho public ne cessities.'' Mr. Putnam's Picture of Mr. Russell’s Retreat from Bull Run. From the IZnicTa-bocTer for .September wo take the following skilcli of Mr. HiissOll, of tho Lo&doii Times, as he appeared to a cool ob3orver (G. P. Putnam, tho Now York publisher) who was bound toward CcntrOTille at tho time our army (with Mr. Russell at the head of it) was in retreat from it: About half possibly near five, Ccntre viiio was etill (as It proved) a mile or so ahead of us. We reached tho top of « moderate rise in the road, and as we plodded on down its slope, I turned a glance bnek along the roiul wo hud passed; a thousand bayonets wore gleaming in tho sun light, and a fuii fresh regiment wero overtaking us in doublo-qnick step, having come up (as I soon after learned) from Vienna. They reached the top of the hill just ns wo lo gon to pick our way across the brook which flooded the road in the little valley beiow. At this moment, looking up the ascent ahead of us, to ward the battle, we saw army wagons, private ve hicles, and some six or eight soldiers on horseback, rushing down tho hill in front of us in exciting con fusion, and a thick cloud of dust. The equestrian soldiers, it could be seen at a glance, wore only im pronqdu horsemen, and tlioir eteedg were all un used I o this inciting inode, most of them being bare backed. Their riders appeared to bo in haste, for some reason best known to themselves. Among them, and rather leading the van, was a soli° tary horseman of different aspect: figure some what stout, face round and bread, gentle manly in aspect, but somewhat flushed, and impatient, not to say anxious, in expression. Under a broad-brimmed hat. a silk handker* chief screened his neck like a Havelock. He rode ft fine horse still in good condition, and ids motto seemed to be “onward'' —whether in personal alarm or not, it would be impertinent to say. Hi 3 identity was apparent at a glance. As his horse reached the spot where “we five” stood together, thus suddenly headed off by the stampede, the rei gimont behind us had reached the foot of the hill, and the colonel, a large and resolute-looking manj had dashed his horse ahead of his men, until he was face to face with the stampoders. “ AV'hat are you doing here ?” shouted the colonel in a tone jhat “ meant something’ I —■ ■ Halt!” (to his men).’ “Form across the road, Stop every one of them!" Then turning ff> the white-faced soldiers from the field, and brandishing his sword. “Back! back! the whole of ye! Back! Isay,” and their horses in an instant are making n rovorse movements np the hill.whiie the army wagons stand in statu <pto; the thousand muskets of tho rogi mont. in obedience rather to the action .'than the word of the colonel, being nil pointed at the group in front, in the midst of which wo stand. All this and much more passed in much less time than it takes to tell it. “ But, sir, if you will look at this paper,” thus spake our distinguished visitor in the advance to the determined and now excited colonel, “you will see that I am a civilian, a spectator merely, and that this is a special pass, ” (hero I half imagined a doubt of the character of tho regiment flashed in for a second.) “a pass from General Scott.” The manlier and the tone indicated that tho speakor and his errand were entitled to attention. “Pass this man up!” shouted the colonel, somc whnt bluntly, and impatient of delay, and on gal loped the representative of “ The Thunderer ” to ward Washington. Now. the art of bragging and the habit of exag geration arc Ticca to which ail we Americans are hut too much addicted, But if I say that my friend T and myself stood in the midst of this melee much more impressed with its ludicrous pieturesqueness than with any idea of personal danger, my friond at least would agree that this was tho simple truth. Tho brief parley of “ Our Own Correspondent'' suggested merely tiie thought that it was a pity such a stranger should be annoyed by such a crowd. I’d better say : “ Colonel, this is Mr. ■ —. of the London ; pray don’t de tain him.” However, this all pnssed in a twink ling. CITY ITEMS. Monthly Meeting of the Young Men’s Christian Association. INTERESTING DISCUSSION VPOW THE REEICIOC'S VOKK AJIONC TUB fcOLIUHIISJ—IIKMARK« OF Mil. STEPHEN U. TYNG*. OF NEW YORK, AND OTHERS, The regular monthly meeting of the Young Men's niivlalaon- Afismilfitmn nf litis ftitv WUS held ftt the rooms of the Association, Chestnut street, noove Tenth, last eToning, Mr. George Cookman in the chair. After the usual devotional exercises, an essay vrns read by Mr. Robert Nieholl-— subject : Human Happiness,” We did not arrive in time to hear the essay, and will, therefore, not attempt to describe it. It was spoken of, however, as a creditable effort. A letter whs read from Mr. G eorge 11. Stuart, president of the Association, regretting his inability to he at his post, and urging strongly the'special business of the evening, viz.: the work of Christian missions among the soldiers, Letters wore also read front Messrs, h’ox nnd Grant, two absent mem bers, in behalf of Ihc same object, which were fol lowed with remarks by Mr. Wanamaker. Mr. Patterson opposed the proposed work in camps near home, in the vicinity of the city, where the men are exposed to the blighting influences of drain-shops, ckawictometl by the speaker as i: dena of damnation;" but lie would go with them heart and hand in endeavoring to have our military en campments removed from the immediate vicinities of these destructive influences. Mr. Fox having tendered his resignation as chair man of the Army Committee, it was accepted, and Mr. F. E. Simons was appointed in his stead. The committee also was increased from five to ton mem bers. REMARKS OF NR. TYNG Mr. Stephen H. Tyng, of Sew York, son of the Rev. Dr. Tyng, being invited to address the meet ing upon the subject before it. rose and said, after a somewhat humorous introduction, that tho Y T oung Men's Christian Associations throughout the land were manifestly losing force : and the reasons for this were that they had nothing to rfo, and had been attending to matters not strictly their busi ness. The war now precipitated upon us, he looked upon ns opening a Providential field for thoir legiti mate labor, and it ought to be occupied without delay, lie believed there were few regiments in the army in which some one or more Young Men’s Christian Association wero not repre sented, which he said was favorable to tlio mission contemplated. Ho had devised a 'scheme for operations, which ho proposed to submit.. lie regarded the work iu iwe aspects: First, its heat character; and second, its application to the army, at tho sent of war. They hod now a representative at 'Washington, and they ought to have efficient re presentatives at Fortress Monroe, Sandy Hook, Baltimore, and Cairo. The business of tho agonts was to do what everybody else left undone. The particular operations of these pump missions wero further enlarged upon, and their practical charac ter illustrated by incidents which have already transpired in the experience of the agent at the National Capital. He next addressed himself to the local phase of the subject. There was. he said, no place like tho enmp to develop the heart, to bring it out strong and full, nnd nowhere else in the world were there stronger friendships formed than among soldiers banded together in battling for their country. The labor to be engaged in was to be in a measure supplemental to that of tho chaplains, and incidents were related to show that even the chaplains themselves might be superseded by laymen, in some cases, without disadvantage. Above all things, it was necessary to approach soldiers, not ns brutes or inferiors, but ns men. with boldness and affection. Nor ought they to be scared by soldiers’ oaths, or disheartened by even the vilest profanity. The worst men could be re claimed. Besides tills, tho moral standard of onmp life was proverbially so low that he doubted if more than one man in ton in an army actually knew that swearmg was wrong. To make men brave was to rnnko them wise in matters concerning their eternal welfare, and this could only be done by carrying tho cross into the camp, nnd giving it tb Q highest place there. Mr. Tyng said he bo.- tiered! with Bishop that u the plaee to put the flag was right under tho cross,” and neither the Christian nor any other power could put it higher. Mr. Tyng was followed by Mr. Iliram Ward. The latter said that the value of intelligent Chris tian litbor could not bo overestimated. Ho hod no faith) however, in any forced Christian operations, which, he held, should be always calm, 0001, intel ligent, and from the vory bottom of tho soul, 110 said he admired the speech of their young brother from New York; ho even admired his zeal; but ho thought this was a wrong latitude in which to exhibit it to the best advantage. The ideas sf the previous speaker were in his opinion impracticably utterly so. What had 'he seen on his way to the mooting last evening ? Why, that one of the rooms of thoir association was “to let,” because they could not pay the rent of it. To-morrow they were to make an excursion to Atlantic City, in order to raise THE PRESS.—PHILADELPHIA, TUESDAY AUGUST 21, 1861. money which they badly Deeded, This, then, was up time to incur largo additional expenditures by sending out agents, etc. The brother had pro posed altogether too mvrh. The chairman of the Army Committee (Already referred to) had just sent in his resignation, which showed how deop his soul was in this work. He had a better plan. u lf you want,” said he, :c to pray with or for the soldior, put on your hat and go do it. This thing of blowing a trmnpot before them, by raising committees and begging funds, and hiring men to do what no hire ling could do, was all out of plftCO-' 1 At this point, Mr. Simons, thinking that Mr. Ward was Spoiling the address of Mr. Tyng. made an ineffectual effort to bring Mr. IYVs remarks to a close, The latter, however, said that as ho was not only held responsi ble for the wisdom, but also for the folly of tho as sociation, ho could not conscientiously let Brolher Tyng's extravagant suggestions pass without ex pressing his dissent. Mr. Dale, a prominent merchant of this city, thou took the floor, and stated that he thought Mr. Ward's remarks wero rather a damper upon tho association 7 ? proposed operations; nevertheless, ho must admit that there was a good deni of truth in them. Mr. Dale gave an affocling and highly in teresting account of tho Military Hospital, located in Christian street, below Tenth, in a measure, wo believe, under the auspices of the associa tion, having for the last four months had the religious exercises of that institution in his own charge. There arc prayer-meetings held at the Hospital daily, and worship on Suikirty after noons. Some of the scenes described by Mr. Dale, witnessed by him during his visits, were exceedingly touching, and showed the necessity of somo such Christian efforts in order to mitigate the mental sufferings of poor, friendless soldiers, who arc aick and dying far away from their relatives and homes, Tho hour of adjournment was not roiiokcd until after ten o’clock. 37k hap tiik plkasiuk, recently, of visiting Bristol, nud partook of the hospitalities of Mine Ifoß of the Delaware House.

From his account, it is evident that he saw very little of tho affair, ami, of course, was not capable, of writing a description.
