REMARRS OF i 1( N. MR. WRIGHT, MALE ON THE FLAG PRE
SENTA2ION TO COLONEL lIIIINEY'S REGIMENT PENNSYL
VANIA VOLUNTEERS, IN CAMP, ON SATURDAY LAST, IN
YrtEfiENTINGS SWO.IO, TO CAPTAIN 01 5 . .1.11,
G IMENT.
CArra P.: DILLY It was no part of the programme in
thisday's business that I eh be the organ of your
command, in presenting to 3 on, in their name, this beau.
WM testimonial of their affection and regard for you, I
em at aloes what to say, without a inoment's notice. But,
captain Dilly, when I cast my eyes around me, and be
hold every bill top, in this vicinity, crowned with fortill
c...tioms, mounted Nritb heavy vans i every -valley .whilett
td with the tents of loyal and brave soldiers, engaged in
the defence of our country; surrounded at lam by your
gallant colonel and his fifteen hundred men, and, above
all, with the Leanly of the Feetiopdie before me, these
shall inspire my thoughts, and I should regent myself a
dull man, indeed, if I could not, though in an imperfect
may, discharge the duties which have thus devolved them.
Alves upon me.
Capt. Dilly, you come from my own State, my own
county, my own town—nay, you are my nearest neigh
bor—and how gratifying it is fur me to speak your
Praificei Wet lit the prouce er your own ussocintee in
arm, and in the presence of this multitude of people.
Were you not entitled to this superb sword, which your
fellow-soldiers have put iu my hands to present you with,
these ceremonies would not Lave marked a period in the
history of your life, upon which you may look back with
-Irtalhide to that , Actiac,k&lity and scalsf.alon ha the
thought that you were the especial object of their ad.
miratiom
Captain Dilly, the cause in which you are called upon
to teas , this read one WM& APCated the aieet
and patriotic feelings. It is to put down that insurrec
tion and rebellion which menaces the existence of the
American Union ; and which, if not subdued, will destroy
and annihilate those principles of liberty and free fps-cru
mb( which it was your privilege and DIM to inherit,
and which wo should surrender only with our heart's
blocd. The war, if it may be so called, (and_
the time has
passed to question this,) is a war not to subjugate the
people of any State not to reb them of a single
tional right i not to interfere with the rights of personal
property—but to put down a wicked insurrection, and a
rebellion, originated without cause, which are shaking
the American Republic from its centre—a blitek eland
that almost obscures the nation's flag, and almost para
lyzes its armed power. It is a war for the restoration of
the Government as it teas, and with no other view. And
so long as the war shall be conducted upon the principles
Which inaugurated it, and which wore fully and frankly
proclaimed in the executive proclamation issued in April
last, it shall and will be a triumph; but woe to the na
tion and its destiny, when the object shall be changed to
at war of negro emancipation ! I cannot foretell the dan
gers and troubles which would surround the nation in
much a deplorableevent.Wm,can " i
It would present
a divided North, a united South, a demoralized army!
When the President sent forth his appeal to the tarsple
for men to quell rebellion, and, assuring loyal citizens
everywhere,that they should be guarantied in the en
:MD:Ma of l their political rights, how nobly did they
respond ! In a period of less than six months, six hun
dred thousand men were marshalled into the field. And
that brave army are now ready to light the battles of re
public.n liberty, but not of negro emancipation.
Three, Captain Dilly, I conceire to be the objects of
the war, and it is tu this cause you are to draw this
sword; and may you give it that renown, which those
who present it to you nave a right to expect at your
hands.
The ,word which the great Napoleon carried at the
ft old of _kustorlitz he regal/ILA Ag 4h6 Pieb6gt legacy lid
could confer upon Me son. The swords of Washington
and Jackson aro preserved in the archives of the Go
vernment, and no sacrifice would be spared to prevent

You are a young man. The fieldof honor and glory and
•advancetnent is before you, and when you real in tee
history of the past that in military life it is true merit
that eettrettl honor upon the soldier, let this encourage
you to itrtionL
You have the conlidenco of your inon—your vast see•
vices in the field are a good earnest of what your friends
Lace good reason to hope and expect in the future.
Take this sword, Capt. Dilly. Let it be drawn from its
SCaLlifird only dyfence of poustitutional li4erty ell<l the
restoration of the union, and may the OW of Burned
protect you, and may you live to return to your home
and friends wish honorable scars—if they must come-4nd
-with a reputation that shall cause you to be pointed out
as one of the brave men of the Wyoming valley who,
when their country required their services, wore found
ready and willing to face the foes of the Republic.
Birney, of the Twenty-third Regiment, received
the sword in behalf of Captain Dilly in a very gpirited
speech.

Mr. NEAL offered an amendment to the bill that the

ceesorg are elected, provided the term be not extended
beyond the first staled meeting in March.
bin rdiclsvr ne moved to strike out the proviso.
Mr. Ccrusit spoke in favor of the amendment, and
contended that if the prolix. we.Q Michell oat it wont,'

The Chair stated that the next business in order was
the resolution authorizing the lease of the Girard coal
lands, Schuylkill county, (which was under discussion
last xceek,) to Mr. James J. Connor, and such other Der.
eons as may be accepted from time to time, by the super
intendent of the Girard Estate, under the supervision of
the Committee on Girard Estates.
Lnia FialMA of Mr_ (! onus! not Laing inserted in tho
[ease, a discussion swoons to this point.
Mr. Lt.:alum stated that the lease was simply intended
as a form. and that its validity, iu this instance, was se
cured by the insertion of the name in the accompanying
resolution.
The resolution was finally adopted
Mr. HARPER, from the Finance Committee, reported
two ordinances—one to pay the interest of the public
debt falling due on January 1, 1862: also, one to make
an appropriation to pay the laieretsi o't the funned dent or
the city maturing in 1862.
Tito first ordinance provides for the paying of
5148,096.49 for the purpose specified. Passed a final
reading.
The second ordinance, appropriating , O-19,0003 also
passed a final reading.
Also, appropriation bills for the Fire Department and
Department of Surveys for the ensuing year. Ordered
to be printed and lila
The Highway Committee submitted a resolution ab
solving them from the further consideration of the peti
tion of Tames M. Smith, and of the ordinance read in
Council in November last, appropriating a certain stun to
pay road damages.
The resolution was adopted.
A report from the Committee on Highways was sub
milted by Mr. Stern. It authorizes the Mayor to enter
into a lease with the Pennsylvania Railroad Company for
the use of the city railroad on Market street, for the pe
riod of thirty-three years at the nominal rent of
per annum—thereby freeing the city of the expense of
maintaining a superintending officer.
Mr. ANDREW MILLER opposed the proposition.
Mr. Caasswim. asked whether the Pennsylvania Rail
road had been sincerein stating that they would cross the
river at the arsenal, and then come up the front of the
city at Callowhill street 'I It was avowed that they were,
and that they would take up the track below Eleveptit
street as soon as the bridge was completed.
Mr, NtioatitiVO adV9Pled the measare. It was the in
tention of the company, be said, not to use the tracts for
freight, but as a feeder to the new passenger depot pro
posts! to be built west of the SeimOEM. The interests
of the railroad demand that it should accommodate as
ninny of our citizens its voesible. The Washington
street terminus is not for Philadelphia, but this railroad
would be.
Mr CRESWELL moved that the ordinance be referred
bark to the committee for the purpose of making it ape.
citie in character and strict in requirements.
Mr. Quinn said it was conceded that this railroad was
a nuisance, and yet it is propose d to allow it to ride over us
scot free. Our passenger-railroad companies are re
quired to pal• so mn cli per car, and yet the Pennsylvania
Itailroad Company want to monopolize the principal tho
roughfare of the city for thirty-three years without the
least remuneration.
Mr. HODGSON stated that lta would be glad to see Mar
ket street filled with cars from the Schuylkill to the De
laware for as the business of the road increased, the
trade of the city would likewise be increased.
CRESSIVELL thought it questionable policy to
place within the reach of the southern section of the city
railroad facilities not extended to the northern section.
Mr. ()PINY denied that the city would ho benefited
ono dollar by this movement. He doubted the policy of
giving away your house to get rid of paying the taxes.
MEGARGEE said that the city now held 85,000,000
in the Pennsylvania Railroad, and 52,500,000 in the Sun
bury read, and theiriutcroit and prsocmwm icieutilbA
with her own.
Mr. A. DIALLER inquired: Whence do we derive the
right to lease the railroad on Market street to the Fenn.
...slk-eida Italie/qui ! I trust that no attempt to give a
monopoly of any kind to any company will be made by
this body. That which cost the city $20,000, and brings
into its treasury $lO,OOO annually, is to be given to the
VennsOvania Railv-ad for a dollar - a year!
111. r. MEGARGEE EGid that with regard to our giving the
road e 20,000, the boot was on the oth , r leg.
The question on the motion to recommit the ordinance
to the committee then recurred. A vote being taken, it
was defeated.
The oricinal ordinnnee nne then taken up
Mr. INGHAM opposed the measure.
Mr. Crests inquired whether he had understood cor
rectly that the branch railroad on Third street would be
dimontinued if this lasts woe grantod_
Mr. 111E0ARO RE stated, upon the authority of the pre
sident and directors, that such was the fact.
Mr. STERR moved that $1 be stricken out from the
ordinance. and, as an amendment, $l,OO be inserted.
Mr. FREEMAN favored the ordinance.
13.T.Y.a - a. - could not oat., as gentlemen had urged, that
by this measure the Pennaylvania Railroad would be
contributing *24,000 to the city treasury.
The anidnolnient of Mr. Sterr was withdrawn
A motion .sae theh offet , td. to Doe.trone the further eon
sideratiou of the subject, and was carried by a vote of
25 to 28.
Mr. SorTnwolTlT then moved to amend the term of
the totiiC. 'LI 26 -year,.
It was further moved to amend the term so as to make
it 3 years.
Mr. KERR gave the following statement of the receipts
and expenditures of the line of the road for the past fire
years:
Meelob. 19.15e1b1e1.
1850 $10,214 $5,981 00
1857 13,078 5,917 00

-1859 14,706 7,737 00
1860 15,506 8.498 98
Mr. HODGSON stated that these expenses included also
the repairs of the Broad-street road.
The question recurring on the amendment to the
amendment, it was defeated.
The 91999(11119.9t 1)1r, Soritliworth then came Up i awl
was negatiTed by a vote or 29 to 26.
A proviso was then put and carried, that either party
may terminate the lease at one year's notice.
Mr. A. MILLER moved that the yearly rent to be paid
by the Pennsylvania Railroad be equal to the yearly
profits of the city road, which, by the above statement,
has averaged SG,OOO for the last five years.
Mr. QUINN moved that the rental be determined by two
competent persons, one to be chosen by the Mayor and
the other by the penusylvomis Railroad Company. Not
agreed to.
Mr. A. MILLER renewed his motion, and specified the
yearly rental at $6,000, and not 451,..as a term of the
lease.
The question as to introducing the main question wee
then put and carried.
Mr. QUINN moved to reconsider.
A motion was offered by Mr. FREEMAN' to table the last
motion.
Mr. (tett& dereeeded the yea. and nays_
Mr. l'annit.tg. I withdraw my suotton.
Mr. Quont. You cannot do it now; it Is before the
house.
The motion of Mr. Freeman was agreed to,
Mr. Qum - N now moved to reconsider this vote.
The CHAIR decided that two successive motions to re
consider were out of order.
Mr, A, Mlller'ff Wort $5,444 in§to4

vote of 8 yeas to 30 1183'8.
On motion, a call of the house was taken, when it was
fonnd that but tkirty-three members were preeent.
Adjourned.
A LIBEL SUlT.—Yesterday, in the Court of
Quarter Sessions, Judge !tinsels, the libel case against
Lane ...4choßeld, ark-6*MA of the Publication of an ar
ticle attacking James M. Gibson, in his management of
the Highway Department in 1858 and 1850, was re
sumed. 'There was a large representation of con
tractors, commissioners of highways, clerks, &c.,in the
court, as the case is ono of considerable interest, the de.
fondant proposing to prove the various charges made in
the alleged libelous article of mismanagement in that de
partment of the highway, under the control of James M.
assistant commissioner of highwoye l in 1558 and
MO. One of the allegations in the article, published
over the signature of Lane Schofield, was as follows:
Why did he persuade George Shaffer, who proposed to
clean the First district fur 8200 less, to draw down and
give it to Mr. Thompson at 5200 hieher
1,, regard to this. Cieo. Shatter lc-stilled that he did make
Proposals for cleaning the First and Second wards (First
District). Ills bid, in 1858, for the First ward was
higher than that of William Thompson, but in the Second
curd the Lid was lower than that of Mr. Thompson i did
not know how much loaeri from $lOO to $200; Mr. 0-Ih
eon induced him to "draw down" in favor of Thompson,
and 14e was, in return, to act something better j did not
gut anything. hetter, The proposqll. by- Air. Shaffer was in
writing. Mr. Green, a clerk in the Highway Depart
ment, brought to the court the minute-book of the Com
mitaioners and the minute-book of the Committee on
highways; and, aileron examination, he testified that be
wee unable to discern any minutes, either in 1808 or 1880,
of any proposals by Mr. Shaffer or Mr. Thompson for the
First district.
Mr. Green testified in relation to the way of doing bu
siness in the office that before he entered upon his duties
it had not been mud to keep the original proposals for
cleansing the streets. The witness has introduced a new
system ' told ho dies the proposals, and he was induced
to do this in consequence of the numerous disputes be
tween contractors. When the proposals come before the
cOMplitiSiellerS t tend are vpcuctl, it minute is ink cf th 9
lowest bidder, and or no other. There - 15%6110 record made
by which the lowest bidder can be ascertained, the mere
fact of such a person being the lowest bidder, without re
ference to the others, being recorded.

um. Great at -MB been th e nimther of commitments
during the present year, they exhibit a marked diminu

tiro ways: First, as the effect of the war in draining
away a large proportion of the restless and unemployed
part o f oar popehttion and, in the aessnil plats, as a re

MILITARY ITEMS.—A Boston paper publishes
rather an apoceyaial &tory' of a young :+lel having been
arrested at the Pennsylvania Railroad depot, in this city,
time few days since, attired in military nnitbrm, and
concludes by stating that she was conveyed to the
ll Middle District" statiomhouse. The affair, if it really
did come off, must have been " spiritual"
A novelty in the art of swindling has come to light
within the past two days. A man dressed in the uniform
of . of the Pennsylvania Volunteers, milled at the
residence of several petsons whose sons are itt the regi
ment of Co!. Davis '
and, representing their sons had died
in camp, and that he was in charge of the bodies, re
lie, caul
s t E d money to pay the expenses incurred. In order
out the devePtieni ho had covered his cap With
crape, and left a piece of the material bang far dawn his
back. The fellow's story was doubted oy all upon whom
he called, and no money was given him. The attempted
retiehiutt the ears of the police s he was arrested,
and had a hearing before Alderman Plantanton. Upon
the testimony Submitted ho was bound over to answer.
When arrested lie had on his person a furlough for John
litenningd, of the 104th Regiment, P. V. He refused to
give any necomit of himself, but it is believed that he
represents the name on the furloughs though it is not the
name he gave to those whom he attempted to swindle.
A question has been raised as to the payment of those
volunteer: , reported missing at the termination of an en
gagement. A correspondent says: After the publication
of the names of the prisoners at Richmond, and of those
known to bare been killed at the battle of Ball's Bluff, a
manbcr were still unaccounted for, and were supposed to
have been left dead, unrecognizeth upon the field oh strife,
or to have met a watery grave. Does their pay cease
from the date of the battle, supposing their fate should
never be known, and can a settlement of their affairs be
effected ladle they are still missing, but supposed to be
dead, and yet no positive proof of their death existal
The recent order of Governer Vurtin, directing that all
incomplete companies and regiments must be filled by the
Pith of January, or be consolidated with other regiments,
has given a new impetus to the recruiting business in our
city, as there are several incomplete regiments in the vi
cinity. Colonel Lyle will, no doubt, have his regiment
raw before the limo specified aid Colonel Jones, whose
regiment is encamped near Roxkorough, has likewise
great expectations of a similar good lot tune.
Since the first of May last, there have been distributed
by the Soldiers' Aid Committee of St Peter's Church, 288
Pray - flannel shirts, 62 red flannel shirts woollenapl
shirts, 101 pairs of drawers, 696 pairs of socks,
85 pairs of mittens, 119 pairs of slippers, 126 pillow cases,
€126 havelocks. besides various other articles, chiefly de.
signed for sick soldiers. Donations in money or goods
May be left at northeast corner of Pine and Fourth its.
EPISCOPAL INTELLIGENCE.—A central Epis
copal reliti runciution tot- the tick andwounded , of the
army has just been organized in Grace Church, at Twelfth
and Cherry streets, of which the Rev. Dr. tiuduards is the
rector, and the first meeting of ladies residing in that
section of the city took place yesterday morning, at 10
o'clock. The association has been organized for the pur
pose of &tipplyiiig math romfert4 le the troops at the hos
pital at Broad and Cherry streets, as will not be afforded
by the i „Government.
The collections made in the carious Episcopal diuretics
on Thanksgiving Day, for the benefit of toe Episcopal
1E1,4,0W, uhi,,ithted ht $1,824.87. The largeet collection
made was at St. Peter's Church, the amount being $284.
St. Luke's contributed $151.12; St. Andrew's $112.30;
St. James' $154.78, and F t. Paul's $105.05.
The contributions for the election of a memorial church
to Bioko VOttlinan now amount to V 3,803,71,
THE RAILROAD ON MASTER STREET.—The
following resolutions were adopted at a meeting of the re
sidents of Master street opposed to the laying of a railroad
track upon that thoroughfare ;
Whereas, The Piorth fenntorlYania Railroad Company
have assumed the right to construct a railroad for the
transportation of coal on Master street. one of the princi
pal thoroughfares in the city of Philadelilla, teed th.P.by
ruining the property of citizens residing in said street'
and it being a matter of pecuniary interest to the said
railroad company, without any advantage to any other
portion of thccitimo of riliMeletia j and the said street
being tee narrow to admit of any obstruction except for
the purpose of ordinary travel, the street being but fifty
feet wide: therefore,
Resolved, That we will oppose, by all legal means, the
coast'. action of a railroad on Meeter street, as by itscron.
etruction the chlize of pkettetly would be depreciated at
leastfifty per cent.
Resolved, That, in additicn to the inj try to property on
said street. there are no less than three public schools lo
cated .n the portion of Master street intended far said
railroae, thereby endangering the lives of thousands of
children of citizens residing in that vicinity.
EMBALMING THE DEAD.—This art is now be
ing into rtsonsition by the war, and several of
our city undertakers have recently practised it with much
success, while most of the officers, and not a few of the
soldiers, who hare fallen in battle or by disease in camp,
have had their bodies preserved nod sent kW le their
friends for burial by this process. The system pursued
is said to be that of the celebrated Suceuet, of Paris ,
which consists in injecting a powerful antiseptic
which MOD hardens [ha times to a marblelline bubo's=
and perfectly preserves the color and features, while
keeping the body free from all offensive odor.
FOB THE VOLUNTEERS.—A . commendable
movement has just been brought to our notice. A spe
cial ineetihy, of the Boise Hose Company was held on
Monday evening last, when a committee, consisting of
Messrs. Benjamin Levy, D. Kennard, and J. H. Stahl,
was appointed to invite a similar committee from each
company in the Fire Department, to unite for the mar
nOßA of taking measures to lit Id a ball for the benefit of
the Cooper-Shop Refreshment Salo m. The delegates
will meet at the Humane Hose Hall, on Tuesday eve
ning; January 7, 1862.
TIIY. CITY LOAK.—NOIIO were more jubilant
than our school-teachers upon learning, as they did yes
terday, that the Mayor had signed the loan bill of $1,200,-
000, which passed Councils at their last meeting; but un
der the present state of affairs, it is likely that none of it
will L. put in the meek& The Mayes end the 101fillhee
Committee have the power to sell or hold on to it. War
rant holders, therefore, much to their regret, will have to
wait a little longer before obtaining theirmonoy from the
imam.
THE KENSINGTON POST OFFICE.—At a meet
ing of the citizens of Kensington opposed to the removal
of the sub-post office from that district, held Oh Wednes
day evening, a resolution was adopted appointing a cont•
mittee of live for the purpose of representing to the
Postmaster General of the United States the facts bearing
in the case of the Kensington Past Office, and to repre
sent the absolute necessity for the existence and continu
ance of the ISPE46ht pest ales as a diatlast nud MNINIIf4I
PBlftbli4bintht.
MEETING IN REFERENCE TO THE ENGLISH
TnonitLE.—A rather intemperate call has been circa•
lated for a town meeting to consider our difficulties with
Ilioulent. The effort had been made once before, but
failed. The call states that the undersigned, desirous of
eliciting vino public expression of opinion, call upon the
Irish citizens of Philadelphia, without respect to creed Or
party, to unite in town meeting in expression of their ab
horrence of Great Britain's conduct, and their faith that
the Vetted States Government will never relinquish the
ambassadors of the rebel Government.
A FLOURISHING ORGANIZATION.—The Penn
gylvapia goi:!cuitlirat Society have leased a m u lit the
southwest corner of Broad and Walnut streets, for the
purpose of bolding their monthly exhibitions of fruits
and flowers; The library of the society is valuable, and
contains many rare works on Horticulture and kindred
sublects. Heretofore it has been almost inaccessible to
tht. MeMbers, besidea being sulkiest to iiijimy from damp
ness. The room will probably be opened for the use of
members every Tuesday evening.
PtligoßAL.—Colatiol J. G. Wittak, the gal
lant commander of the California Regiment (now the Se
venty-first Pennsylvania), has arrived in this city. He
is fast recovering from' the effects of his painful wounds
received at DuMsff. Ife is eager to, get back - to the
command of his noble regiment. ills present mission in
the city is to open a recruiting office for his regiment,
which lost so heavily at Ball's Bluff.

G LUTEN CAPSULES
OF
PURE COD-LIVER OIL..
The repugnance of most patients to iSOD-LIVEIL
OIL, and the inability' of many to take it at all, has in
duced various forms of disguise for its administration
that are familiar to the Medical Profession. Some of
them answer iu spectra eases, but more often the vehicle
neutralizes the usual effect of the Oil, proving quite as
unpalatable and of ICOF therapeutic value. The repug
nance, nausea, Itc., to invalids, induced by disgust of the
Oil, is entire.y obviated by the use of our CAPSULES.
COD.LITEII OIL CAPSULES haw) been mull mad
lately in Europe, the experience there of the good re
sults from their use in both hospital and private practice,
aside from the naturally suggested advantages, are ant-
Pelept to warrant our claiming the ViltUoEl we do for
them, feeling assured their urn will resitin benefit and
