Naval Matters The United States steam
frigate Pou*kaian arrived at the navy yard yester
day morning. She has, for some time past, been
engaged in blockading duty, and was brought here
for repairs. The most of her orcw were discharged
in New York, only a sufficient number to bring the
vessel to this port being retained. The vessel yes
terday was anchored off in the stream, and will be
brought in to shore to-day. She stands much iff
toeed of repairs, which will ho commenced at once.
She will receive new boilers. When the Powhatan
first sailed, she went in pursuit of the privateer
Sumpter. The portion of her crew who have been
discharged were sent to this city for the purpose of
Jtaing paid off.
A trial trip of the guuhAat Wid-on was
made to New Castle and back. The trip was very
satisfactory. A number of other gunboats at the
yard arc ready to leave.
The City Icc Boat, which has been mustered out
of the United States service, arrived at this port
yesterday. The boat was mustered out because
there arc now so many gunboats ready for duty
The ice boat has done an immense amount of ser
vice.
Within the last twn or three days a number of
naval iiuYv ivpoitcd at tho navy yard iof
duty. Most of them will go on board the new guu
fo>ats.

ing the policy of the Fremont proclamation, to
Wit; That the'slaves of all persons taken in arms

Such time and place as they may appoint.
The Recent Finn —During the whole of
yesterday a throng of curious gazers remained
around the ruins of St. Paul’s Church. Tho da
znage is much more extensive than was at first sup
posed, amounting to fully $30,000, on which there
IS only an insurance of SlO.OOO in the Franklin In
surnnee Company of this oity. The large bell lies
at the bottom of the tower, broken into three pieces.
!The walls appear strong, and there is no sign of
any giving way in any part. The tower is built on
an arch, which accounts for its standing so firmly.
As far as ascertained, there is no reason to suppose
that the fire was other than accidental.

Bridge.— Yesterday the City Solicitor filed his
answer to the biil of equity of Gilman & Co., rela
tive to the construction of the Chestnut-street

front, of 3fio feet, capable of accommodating 17
Vessels. They claim the Schuylkill as navigable to

Jaake their river property valueless. Mr. Lex re

the matter will be decided in the District Court.

and John Carter, were arrested at Morris-street
wharf by Soargeant Tryon and Officer Pearce, of
the Nineteenth-ward police, for passing a ten-doliar

Dr, Stillc’s Oration at the University Last
Evening.
Tho annual oration before tho Society of the Alumni,
of the University of Pennsylvania, was delivered in tho
halt of that institution, last evening, by Alfred StiUe, M.
D. The audience was large and select, as audiences on
these annual occasions usually are. At 8 o’clock the orator
of the evening, accompanied by several of the most dis-
JinguhJicri members of the society, entered the platform.
Tlio preliminary devotional exercises were conducted by
Btehop Potter, at the close of which the speaker, wag in
troduced. His theme was, “ War, the Civilizer.”
He commenced by saying that just thirty years had
elapsed since ho had had the honor of appearing before
an audience at the very spot where he was then stand
ing. The hopes, experiences, trials, disappointments,
and achievements of those who then met his eye—many
of whom were long since departed—were then briefly and
poetically dwelt upon.
racing to his subject proposed, the speaker said that
do observer of national events during the last thirty years
could fail to have perceived that public virtue in high
places limi been steadily undergoing u decline. Pros
perity.had to a degree stagnated the life-blood of the na
tion, and hardened its heart.
It was an error, he said, to suppose that war wag
cessarily hostile to civilization. The history of th 9 race
was, to a great extent, a history of wars, and yet the
race had steadily progressed in civilization. In speaking
of the influence of war upon civilization amt literary
culture, he said it must not be forgotten that. ftjg first
impetus.given to Greek literature was by a war waged to
recover a sacred sUrine. Then, again, the names of the-
Greeks whose literary achievements rendered Greece
most famous had all lived within ap* riod of a century
and ii half, and that duriug the progress of bloody wars,
or the . short intervals between them. And those men
were all Athenians—the natives of a State no larger in
extort than our own Rhode Island, and so rugged and
ban on that its grain-producing power wa9 not sufficient
to supply its ewu people.
Ppdiefedihg from Greece to Rome, lie said that the
seven centuries which elapsed between the fouudiug. of
Rome and the assendency of the Cmsars were spent iu al
most perpetual warfare. Yet, cut of this chaos of war
had arisen the majestic figure of Imperial. Home, and
htr Augustin age* the funic of which still lived, «»d
■ would live to the end of time. Virgil und Horace had filled
the world with the glory of their writings, and the pro
ductions of other names still challenged. the ad
miration of the most learned and refined of
modern times, It was true that this golden era
of Komnn literature and art was not of long duration,
yet it illustrated a principle. If any period in the his
tory of the world was most noted for the destructive in
fluence of war upon civilization, it was the eleventh aud
twelfth, the era of the Crusades. These wars had neces
sarily shaken the social foundation’ and yw that Roman
holocaust had been the immediate instrument of giving a
new and higher impetus to tho lifts aud civilization
throughout Kurope. The invading armies carried back
to the Romans stores of knowledge which they would
otherwise never have attained.
If it was true, as was said, that the Romans had de
rived the idea of the compass from Arabia, then, the
orator maintained that two of the greatest blessings of
the present age were due to the wars of fee Cruaftdeß"
the discovery of America, and the solved problem of
popular liberty. So that, chimerical as was t&e design,
of those wars, their influence for good to after ages-was
inestimable.
The civilizations now existing were next glanced ait* in
-which It was said that the duel was no more resorted to
in Christendom by gentlemen) excepting where tho people
were more or less degraded by the existence- of some
other barbarous institutions.
Concert at the Green-street M. E.
Ciu kce. —liy an advertisement in anotlior column it will
be seen that a part of the Thanksgiving programme, at
the Green-street Methodist Episcopal Church, will be a
Concert of Sacred and Select Music,in theeveuing, hy the
Choir of that Church. The Concert will be given under
the direction of Professor H. Priem, and will doubtless be
a very pleasing and attractive entertainment.
THAUKsGiviHa Dinner.—The time-honored
custom of “ eating a Thanksgiving Dinner” will be duly
observed today in many happy homes. In all populous
cities, bowev< r, there is necessarily a large floating,
«t loose-footed” population, who, on these annual festive
occasions, make it a. point to ll dine out.*' To accommo
date this class of gentlemen, and all others who may be
inclined to indulge in a really sumptuous, elegantly-pre
pared dinner, Mr. J. W. Price, proprietor of the first
class restaurant, southwest corner of Fourth and Chest
nut streets* will servo Thanksgiving meals to-day In a
manner worthy the reputation of his establishment.
Glancing at his poultry preparations last evening, we
found him amply provided with the choicest game. His
chicken salads, oysters in every style, terrapins prepared
in the beet manner, as well as liis desserts and wines, are
all of the finest quality. In addition to the large busi
ness of his saloon, his superior facilities for furnishing
families and parties with the choicest cookery in this line
have placed Mr. Price in the front rank of this class of
caterers.
Malaga Grapes. —Mr. C. H. Mattson,
dealer in fine groceries, Arch and Tonth streets, has now
in store a fine lot of Malaga grapes, which he is selling
at 33 cents per pound* about half the price ordinarily
charged for this delicious fruit. The finest articles in the
grocery line can always be had at this establishment.
Gilt "Window Shades, 75 cents, with du
rable fixtures. Fine Gold and Velvet, SI, S 2, S 3, and
84. Store Shades painted to order at W. Henry Patten's
West F.nd Store, 1408 Chestnut street.
Heavy Lace Clutaiss. —Some of the
heaviest Lace Curtains, of fine tambour and application
work, ever on exhibition, for sale at great sacrifices, at
W. Henry Patten's West End Curtain Store, 1408 Chest
nut street.
Quaere’s Lamp and Gas Shades.—The
establishment of Y. Quarre, southeast corner of Ninth
and Arch, is unsurpassed by any in the world. It em
ploys the most skilful artists and lithographers and keeps
constantly going an enormous number of presses. There
is a multitudinous variety of finish and design, ranging
from the lowest to the highest price. No parlor or sit
ting room is complote without one of these beautiful or
naments. The glories of classic history, the richness and
grandeur of celebrated sceneries, copies of noble Btatuary
and paintings, and scenes drawn from the Revolution and
fr«n the present war, a redolineated in colors, and the light
is made to give the life-like illusion of a panorama to the
pictures. The advertisement will be found in another
column.
Thanksgiving Exercises The customary
Thanksgiving dinner will be given this afternoon, at 3
o’clock, at the Northern Home for Friendless Children ,
comer of Twenty-third and Brown streets. Addresses
will be delivered by Hon. James Pollock, Rev. Brooks,
Rev. J. Hyatt Smith, and others, and interesting exer
cises will take place by the children, The public are in
vited, and donations will he gratefully received.
Religious services will beheld tUisfThursiay) morning,
half past ten o’clock, in St. Matthew’s Lutheran Church,
New street, when ltev. E. W. Hutter will preach the ser
mon.
Fall and Winter Clothing. —We would
remind onr readers, that the best and cheapest fall and
winter garments in the city, of all styles and qualities, are
now selling ut the Mammoth Clothing Bazaar of Gran
ville Stufccs, CO9 Chestnut street Mr. Stokes has just
r< ceivcd some of the finest and most durable materials in
the market, which are being turned into ready-made gar
ments as fast as the pressing demands made upon him for
his superior clothing will admit. Every garmont manu
factured at this renowned clothing depot is warranted in
fit, fabric, and fashion, and can be sold at more reason
able rates than elsewhere. Those who wish bargains in
the purchase of their winter clothing should visit the
mammoth emporium at 609 Chestnut street.
The Battt.k at Fort Fickens.—The news
iV.-ii* very copious or saihl'actory, and we
must wait tor an arrival from the fleet before wo can
have the details of the battle. We can assert with per
fect confidence, however, that the Brown Stone Clothing
Hall of Roekhill & Wilson, Nos. 603 and 005 Chestnut
street, above Sixth, enjoys tV»o reputation of turning Ollt
