C, and F. of Colonel 3feLeat 's regiment of Penn sylvania volunteers; and whereas, Those Totes were :false and fraudulent: theref,:•re, Resolved. That the mayor pith@ city lie antherimed to .offer a reward of 81,000 fur the detection and conviction of the perpetrators c f these frauds. Mr. LEIGH said that we ought to unite for the con •Viction of the scoundrels who sent in the fraudulent -votes from Bailier's and Owen's regiments. Re wanted to see all Ouse scoundrels brought to ju4tice and hanged by the sheriff who would succeed Dir. Ewing, and that would be John Thompson. [Laughter ] he Calla. Theee itu,A be ocd..r in ttits chamber, and -the messenger will put out any person who is guilty of creating disorder. Mr. BARGEE said that when frauds were proved in the regiments referred to by the previous speaker (Air. Leigh), he would lute for punishing the perpetrators. Mr. DAnrun attacked the Democrats for not abiding by the agreement of the party, made some weeks ago. Be neees.,d the Dentocrata of breaking faith in that matter. Dr. Sires rejoined. He said that the committee to set tle the Nineteenth-ward case had proceeded legally. Each party was represented by its attorney, and its action was taken on an assured basis, after time bad been given to -the People's party to prove frauds in the Nineteenth and they had been unable to show, by a single witness, that atrandhad been perpetrated iu that ward. lfad the People's parry had a single witness, we would Lave opened -the boxes and counted the vote. If they bays the meet even to-day, let them contest the seats, for love traail-e theiamAttcr of the cauiration of the legal time. Mr. Cr.E:SWELL bitterly attacked the writer of a com munication on the Nineteenth-wand question, signed •' Omega," which had been published In a daily paper. Be saio the signature was significant. Truly the com munication was "the last "—it was the scrapings of the barrel—and was disgraceful and scurrilous to the last de gree. The speaker defended his conduct in giving the casting vote in the committee by which Messrs. Hulse man and Brinkworth had obtained their seats. Mr firm offered an amendment to Mr- Barger'e resoirtion providing for the punishment of 4 i any other fraud or frauds committed at the late October election." Mr. Qua supported his amendment, and declared that the conduct of the People's members in upholding the Nineteenth-ward fraud was disgraceful to the last degree. LEIGH replied to Mr. Quin. and said that he was glad that the "galled jade" (Mr. Cresswell) ,winced. Me added that the People's men did not claim their seats :in the Nineteemli ward on any army vote, but they did .claim their seats on the legal vote in the ward. This was why they wanted the boxes opened in the Nineteonth azel the votes TVVAIVItciIs Mr. Locontar: advocated the resolution of Mr. Bar ger, with Mr. Quip's amendment. He maintained that the terms of the agreement were acted up to by the De mocrats in the committee on the Nineteenth-ward case, and that Mr. Leigh's statement was incorrect. From time to time the committee adjourned to give an oppor tunity to the People's men to prove frauds in the Nine teenth ward, and nor NM to do it. Their petition was - vague and informal, and did not comply with the act of Assembly. The onus was thrown on the People's men in the contest, and they failed utt.rly to make out a case. Mr. HARPER attacked the Democrats Tot their conduct is comm.ttee. He said they did not examine a book or a 'hox, and they actually refused to hear the evidence of Mr. Cuyler himself, their own president of Select Conn -who hat Leen Instrumental in ma - lEll3Bllm pgreement. ?bey had refused to carry out Me jot or tittle of the pledge by uhich•they were bound. The preamble and resolution were then adopted, Mr. Barger accepting Mr. Quin's amendment. Mr. Womlyar called up the ordinance from Select Council, providing for the election of heads of depart cinema on the Jast stated meeting in January, or any stated meeting in February- While it was under consideration, the members of Se lect Council entered the chamber, and Mr. Cuyler took thie chair of the joint committee.

LER PASSENGER RAILWAY ACCIDENT.— I' o'clock yesterday afternoon, a lad of seven ued Adam , ', was run over by a RA., and Vine asenger.car, at Twenty-second and Callowhill int one of hie wrists shockingly crushed. The ifftrer was taken to hie !mute in Hamilton street, Twer4,y-second and Twenty-third, where his were dressed. That he escaped with his life was THE LOCAL AND FOREIGN TRAFFIC OF THE PXNNSYLVANIII RAILROAD.—Withont doubt, the line of transatlantic steamers 'ram this port, which has been talked of so long, and has even been attempted in a man ner, will be established in good time. But it will never be established through any laudable pride or eeltonicri ficing spirit of our commercial men, or even as a mere Speculation_ 7he day will coma when it must result lu an inevitable necessity of the Pennsylvania Railroad's enterprise The liret step to link our seaboard with the interior was the construction of the iron draw-bridge over the Schuylkill, below South street. The bridge has now been completed several months. It consists principally of two permanent spans, each of 192 feet, and one pivot span (the draw) of the same length. To support this cen tral span a middle pier is built. The bridge is about fourteen and a half feet wide and about nineteen feet high. The bridge being, at its lowest point, twenty-six feet above high water, the navigation of the river is in no wise interfered with, and the necessity of opening the draw is quite rare. Cars passed over the bridge, for the first time, about a week since. The second grand improvement of the company was the construction of the grain elevator—otherwise known as the Delaware terminus of the road. We have already entered fully into a description of its details, and princi ples of operation. It is, perhaps, the most complete strncture of its kind in the country, rivalling in magni tude those of the - Empire City. The two improvements were commenced about the same time—in July or August last, wo believe. The be nefits which are to accrue from them are the bringing of an increased Western trade to our city. the with drawal of the heavy burden cars from Market, Third, and Dock streets, and the shipment of freight direct to New York or elsewhere. Hundreds of thousands of bushels of grain can be brought from Chicago to this city without change of conveyance, and can be emptied into the holly of vessels 013 the Delaware by means of steam• machinery. In Addition to this, the prospect is held out that, before many years have passed, we shall become as great a pork-packing metropolis as Cincinnati now is. The hogs are to be brought to this city alive, and, after being guillotined, willebe converted into pork for Euro pean consumption. It is estimated that the offal alone, resulting from their slaughter, will defray all the cost of transportation. AN to their local improvement, the company have not been Quite ea eneeeeeful. Iu DecombeY last Aft ofdlnanoe was reported in Councils from the Committee on High ways authorizing the Mayor to lease the railroad on Market street to the Pennsylvania Railroad Company for thirty-three years, at a nominal rent. In the dis cussion which ensued, it was stated that if the measure were adopted the company would be willing to relinquish second and Third streets—thus abolishing the nuisance of hauling heavy freight cars through thooo thorough fares. it was also statad by one of the inembert that the Markel-street Railroad was simply to be need as a feeder, to convey passengers to West Philadelphia, where a new passenger depot would be erected. In the construction of the new bridge, and the use of Prime street, regard to the foreign trade was simply had ; and that in making these improvements it had never been designed to supersede market street. Those reasons, however, were not deemedsatisfactory, and the ordi nance., was voted down by a small majority. The company, nevertheless, has made a complete re nee al of their Market-street track, from . Market-street bridge to their depot at Eleventh street. In place of the old cast-iron rails they have introduced a new pattern of Wrought:iron rail, manufactured nt the Pluonix Iron Works, and have also introduced amore advantageous method of laying them. Being prohibited from unloading their cars on the main tracks of Broad, Market, Dock, and Washington streets, the company gave notice, some two weeks since, that all such freight as lumber, staves. hoop-poles, shingles, shooks, coal oil, rock oil, and petroleum (crude and re fined) would in tutors be delivered at West. Philadelphia, instead of at the freight station, corner of Thirteenth and Market streets_ Commission merchants and others, bow eiveneaving private denote or Mingo, and imuorklog freig t of the above description, can have it conveyed to them in the company's cars. r The annual meeting of the stockholders will take place on Monday nest, at Sansom-street Hall, when the an nual report will be submitted. ITATERFORD COLLEGE.—The annual Junior. Exhibition at Ilaverford College took place yesterday morning, commencing at half past 9 o'clock.

The exercises we r oi t marked by justness of thought and clearness and 61 co of exprenion, and must have breu gratifying to the friends of the performers. A manly and appropriate style of elocution prevailed, and, altogether, the young gentlemen acquitted themselves in a manner which spoke well for the character of their Alma Mater. MILITARY IrtaktßßA.L.---Yesterday aftefnoon, the funeral cf Lieutenant Arthur Gibbons, late of the 110th Pennsylvania Regiment, took place from the resi dence. No. 92.1. Spruce street. The deceased was welt known in this city, having (Injured an ostensive ac quaintance, especially among the dry-goods jobbing trade, in which he was engaged prior to his enlistment. He was universally esteemed by his brother officers, and the men under his command, and everywhere was ad mired for his many noble traits of character. He was a brave and daring _soldier, whose loss will be'severely felt. He was born in the county Westmeath, Ireland,. and, though a resident in this country but a few years, en tered heartily into the noble cause in which so many of his countrymen are now engaged. He died at Camp Curtin, Rarrrisburg, of typhoid fever, on the 25th Ind, LietiteLaLl Colonel H. It, Burnham, of the Sixty seventh Regiment, detailed Captain Eagleton's company to at tend the obsequies. OPERATIONS OF TILE HOLTSE OF INDUSTRY.— About 150 persons have been fed during the past month at this institution, which is located. on Catharine street, above Seventh, and from forty to My pet week have been furnished with lodgings. There are made at the house an average of eighty quarts of soup per day, and several hundred pounds of bread each week. 'She largo work-rootn for women had not been ensued this winter, for the reason that many who formerly eolicibgi work at the house are now engaged in sewing for the Govern ment. From thirty to thirty-five women are furnished With employment at sewing carpet rags, for which a ready sale is found. Thu schools of the House of Indus try LOW number fifty-five white children and seventy colored, all of whom are provided with dinners,. and some with shoes and necessary clothing. Medicines are furnished gratuitously to the poor. The managers appeal to tne public to contribute to the institution, to enable then to continuo their praise worthy labors. MALICIOUS MISCinEF.—A man, named Wm. E. Tucker, a member of the Sixty-seventh Regiment P. Y., encamped at Camac's woods, was arrested on Wed nesday- for malicious mischief, awl committing an as sault and battery upon Mrs. Malone and °Ruler Jack son. Mrs. Malone keeps a grocery store in Marion street, above Jefferson. Tucker went into her store while intoxicated, and demanded liquor. Mrs. Malone replied that she did not sell the article. Tucker por• nista] in hie demand, end finally jumped behind the counter. Mrs: Malone remonstrate d with him, when he seized her by the throat and threw her' upon the 11 . mr. He then upset the counter, and proceeded to break things generally. Officer Jackson, who attempted to arrest Tucker was assaulted but succeeded in getting him to the station-house. Yesterday morning the prisoner had a hearing before Alderman Rees, and was held in $l,BOO bail to All,ver. ATTEMPTED ROBBERlES.—Yesterday morn ing, between one and two o'clock, the house of Mrs. Don nelly, 935 South Tenth street, was entered by three men, who forced the lock of the front cellar door. Before they had time to commence work, Mr. Rogers, residing next deer, saw them and sent one of his family in the yard to prevent them from getting out of the back way, while he went front and secured the cellar door. They forced their war through the yard, however, and escaped. On Wednesday night the police of the Second district ar. rt-eted Andrew Eowder for a supposed attempt to pot. It toms that the accused went into Kline's lager-beer sa loon at German street and the Passyunk road, and passed through into the kitchen while the attention of the pro prietor was directed elsewhere. As the only passage to the upper part of the house is through the kitchen, and the servant girl was dispatched on a trivial errand by Sowder, itis supposed that he intended to rob the place. Re was committed by Alderman Dallas. HEARING of GrILCHRIsT.—The case of Gil ehriet came up for a hearing before tinned Stated Com missioner Bellalett, day before yesterday, and was Conti need during yesterday_ The most prominent witnesses were Officer Franklin, chief of our detective depart ment, and Mr. L. C. Baker, chief of the Government de tective department at Washington. Other witnesses were likewise examined. from whose testimony it ap peared that the defendant bad obtained articles contra band of war upon fraudulent representations, and had forwarded them to the South. A conviction is almost inevitable. CITY ITEMS. Lecture by Dr. James M. Sommerville at Concert Hall Last Evening. A lecture was deliVered at Concart Hall, last evening. by Tiones M Sommerville, M.. D., of this city, for the benefit of the Hingseasing Hospital Aid Society. His subject was, Pictures—Their Origin and Influence. The audience was small, but of a,ery respectable cha racter. The lecturer was introduced to the audience by Caleb Cope, Du., who said that, some years ago, an institu tion had been infdguratect In this city, entitled " Tho Philadelphia Art union," one of the advantages of which had been the annual delivery of a lecture upon the subject of the. Fine Arts. Of late years, however, this custom bad been neglected, and the Arts had had their lips sealed to the public ear ever since. With a few highly complimentary remarks upon the lecturer's compe tency to do justice to the subject he was about to discuss, Mr. Cope concluded his introduction, and Pr. Sommer ville commenced his leetnre. The origin and the influence of picture% tie said in opening, were eminently peaceful. From the beginning of his existence Rhea been a trait in man to resells me morable events from the destructive influence of thee by some rude resort to art. In illustration of this, the means employed by the race in different countries and ages, for this purpose, were referred to, beginning with the commemorative stones set up by Jacob and Joshua, and the hieroglyphs of Egypt. The influence of the fine arts t..as to eleeate and refine. They also linked different races of men in profitable intercourse. The Greeks—the most brave and refined of nations—had. he said, set as high an estimate upon their arts as had the Trojans upon their palladium. Upon a cursory inspection the fine arts might seem but instruments of amusement, but upon closer examination their value would be found far higher end nobler. The influence of pictures upon individuals, from the little child to the mightiest man, was ahnost magical. Nor was their influence even lost upon the lower ani mals, a few well-known historic instances in proof of which were given. In referring more especially to the influence of pictures upon children, the effect of school book illustrations was guile effectively set forth. The impressions for good thus made upon the youthful mind were often as indelible as if graven with a pen of steel, and in after years gave shape and character to thoir in clinations and pursuits. The lecture, upon the whole, however, was not as well conceived as we had haped it would be, as no theme is more worthy of popular treatment. Much of it was su perficial and desultory, and evidently dry to the au dience, their only outburst of applause having been elicited by a rather far:fetched allusion to the asters and stripes"—an effect certainly quite as compliment ary to the patriotism of the audience as to the taste of the lecturer. Dr. Sommervllle's delivery is also susceptible of improvement, being rapid and frequently indistinct. As we understand that the public are likely to hear of him in this field of eloquence—the lecture platform—frequently in future, a little attention to the elocutionary defects here referred to will be serviceable. lie next lecture is lobe given in the city of Buffalo.
