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. By the Constitution of the Confederate Stares,
Bo man could vote unless he was worth two thou
sand dollars. But enough. Ho closed amid pro
found silence—not a cheer, or sign of approbation
greeting him. M
Interesting Tract Meeting Avcrv large

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

The binding of four children to various parties
was confirmed.
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

voting.
The stewards requisition was granted, and the
Board then adjourned.
Trouble amoxg the Policy Mex.—The
lottery-policy men of Philadelphia al l 6 ill gP&ilt tri
bulation. caused by an endeavor on the part of
Ben Wood and Messrs. Eddy and France, to secure
their business in this city- These lottery capitalists
liavo combined their respective lotteries, and, in
stead of drawing four times a day. ns formerly, only
draw two, in consequence of tho sale of tickets fall
ing off some two thousand dol lava per duy, The
expense attendant upon the drawing, they allege,
does not pay. 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

“ 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

be used to the prejudice of the Confederate States.
“ 4. Any alien who shall return to these Stntos

_ « This body will reconvene in extraordinary ses

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

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.

lU'flaEMij OP THE LOSWJt Times.-—Much lias
been &aid and written about the description of the battle
ill Hull Run, as* published by Mr. Bussell, in the London
2Y?.‘»es. From his account, it is evident that he saw very
little of tho affair, ami, of course, was not capable, of
writing a description. Every one agree?, however, in
one thing, that Mr. Bussell has said that the most supe
rior and finest garments in the country can be obtained
at ili* World-renowned Clothing Store of Granville
Stokes, 609 Chestnut street. The useful gifts presented
to purchasers are suitable for either ladies or gentlemen.
PußLismsfl Army Movements.— The Go
vernment at Washington applauds the determination of
the newspapers of IMuladelphia to refrain from publish

give publicity to the fact, that tho groat military clothing
depot of the country is at the Brown Stone Clothing
