Doctor Robert J Breckinridge and “ The
Danville Review.”
Editor of Irk Press : Please apprise the public
that a quasi conspiracy seens to have boon formed
of Stoessionists to put down The Danville Review,
of which Dr. Breckinridge is the principal editor,
and from which we hare had some of the nobloat
of oar noble papers in defence of the Union.
These disloyal moTomente have taken such a turn
that the Dootor has felt himself obliged, in ordor to
carry on the work, to assume the whole pecuniary
responsibility, and has published an appeal to loyal
men for support. The work is a quarterly, and
very ably conducted. Its second number (pub
lished in June last) sketches out very nearly the
campaign now working oat by our brave men in
Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama, and Mississippi.
We must not let him and the cause suffer. Phila
delphians! let us give him a few hundred subscri
bers. The price is $2. Send your money and ad
dresses to the office of George Jnnkin, Jr., Esq ,
southeast corner Sixth and Walnut streets, or
Henry D. Sherrerd, Nos. 4 and 5 Merchants' Ex
change, and tho matter will be attended to.
March 10,1862. Geo. Junkix.
The appeal is as follows:
THE DANVILLE REVIEW.
Godly and loyal persons, who fear the Lord and
love their country, everywhere, but especially in the
'West —and of all religious persuasions, bat espe
cially Presbyterians—are requested to consider
carefully the statements which follow, and after
wards do whet shall seem to them good.
About a year ago a certain number of ministers,
of whom I was one, founded the Danville Quar
terly Review, four quarterly numbers of which. ’
making a yearly volume, have been issued. It is
to prevent the destruction of the work, that this
appeal is made; a destruction such as could happen
only by means that would justify SUCh an appeal
as this. „
Before the first number of the work was issued,
the Rev. Messrs. Stuart Robiuson, Thomas A.
Hoyt, and John H. Rice, withdrew from our associ
ation, of which they w«re members, because they
understood the majority of its members desired me
to advocate, in its pages, the loyal principles of my
discourse of the 4th of January, ISol—that is, bo
cause they were Secessionists. At a much later
period, the Rev. R- L Break withdrew from the
association, btcauae the majority of its members
besought him not to publish in the Review tho po
litical articles which he has since published in
pamphlet form, and which, as was feared before we
nad full knowledge of its contents, it was impes
stble for any loyal man even to appear to endorse.
Still later, and in sncoMrion, the Bert Dr. R. W.
Landis, and the Rev. Professor Jamas Matthews,
went into the army of the United States as
chaplains, and the Rev. Dr. J. T. Smith re
moved from the West to Baltimore. Finally,
Richard H. Collins, Ewj the publisher of tho Ke-
VliiC) and the owner of an extensive bat qualified
property in it—and who, if not a Secessionist, is
much mi&ucderstood —having first notified the asso
ciation of bis inability and unwillingness to carry it
on upon the terms oi his contract with us, refuses
to allow ns the use of our own mail booh, except
upon tormg which are wholly inadmissible. Tho
Rev. J. M. Worrall approves of his conduct, as ho
did of Mr. Brock’s. What remains is that the Rev.
Drs. E. P. Humphrey and S. Yerkes, together with
Proftfgor J. Cooper and myself aided by Dr.
Xtfsndis and Professor Matthews, as their duties in
the army permit, muse start the work anew, or it
roust he discontinued.
In the present state of the country, and, I may
add, of the minds of men in the region to which
th 6 Rwiiw particularly appertains, touching a
multitude of subjects of the greatest importance,
it seems to me its destruction, especially by the
means that have been resorted to, is both a calami
ty and a wrong, which loyal Christian people will
not hesitate to defeat.
The insuperable difficulty 13 Ihe Suppression of
our mail book; for we had subscribers enough to
sustain the publication, and enough money was paid
by them, within the year, to have covered all pro
per expenses. The object of this appeal is to pro*
cure the names of a certain number of subscribers
immediately' whether of those who have already
taken the work, or of new patrons. Aad so great
is my confidence in the loyalty of my countrymen,
in their approval of the past course of this Review,
and in their love of upright conduct; and so little
am I either inclined, or accustomed, to be baffled
in'important matters, deliberately undertaken, by
such conduct as 1 have that I have be
come personally responsible for the expense of con
tinuing the work, under the Conviction that a suffi
cient number of patrons would be ready as soon as
the next number can be issued, which I hope will
he by. the end of March •
Thefeubscription price is $3 per annum; $2 SD, if
paid strictly in advance; $2 where a club of five
members is paid for strictly in advance. Every
one frhndly to the enterprise is requested to obtain
subscribers, and remit by mail their name 3 and ad
dress, with money current whore roooivod, to the
Rev. Professor Jacob Cooper, at this place. Ex
changes, and works sent to be noticed, must bo
directed hereafter to Danville, Kentucky.
Whoever will oousider the state of public affairs
in Kentucky a year ago, will hardly need any ex
planation of the mistakes which loyal men were
liable to commit, in organizing our association, and
starting our Review. And, perhaps, those who
bear in mind the present state of affairs in this re
gion, and tho perils of all kinds through which the
favorable change has been wrought, will hardly
agree that any instrument, or any man, used in any
degree by Hod in producing that change, shall be,
just yet, ignominiously put out of the way, in the
Interest of the most flagitious conspiracy that ever
asgailed human society. If in these things lam
mistaken, I desire, at least, that all who feel any
interest in the matter should understand by what
means this enterprise failed, and how thorough was
my conviction that the failure ought to have been
prevented. R. J Bujsckutridoe.

This elicited considerable discussion, Bev. A. A.
Reese proving conclusively that tho same truth was con
tained in the preamble and resolutions he had offered on
' Wednebday last. The resolution was finally laid on the
table and a substitute offered by Bev. JohQ 11. Dashiell.

and resolutions, passed on tbe sth of March, in regard to
the unhappj state of the country, most respectfully pro
test against any interpretation of that vote which im
pugns their faith in the twenty-third article of religion.
This was passed unanimously by the OouforeDoe, which
gives in one sentence tho position of the iilusirlode fifteen

vailed among the members during this session* which had
a good effect c pou all.
Bev. John Bowen moved that we sonfine ourselves to
tbe legitimate business of tbe Conference J the Biahop
aeconded it* and John A. Gere put tbe vote j earned and
produced considerable merriment in the congregation*
During a debate this morning In Conference* the latent
feeling in tbe minds of the Baltimore Secessionist* was
shown. When 11. D, Chambers made a remark, which
bore too upon tbe flag, hisses were heard* espe
cially in the gttilmos, when a motion was immediately of
fered sud passed stating that hereafter the Conference

this morning.

“ Unchangeable* Almighty Lord,
Our souls upon thy truth wo stay,”
And led in pra> ©r. Tbe journal vm read and approved.
A paper wag presented and referred to tbe Committee on
Seminaries *
Bev. John A. Gere, during the debate yesterday, on
the case of Bev. Henry Blicer, moved that “ as a Confer
ence we disapprove of the conduct of Brother Siicer in
declining to vote, and not retiring without the bar, sub
ject to the fifth rule in'tbe constitution 5 that his conduct
be not a for any future oeftariou.”
This morning he said he wished to withdraw the motion
thus made.
Bev. Blicer then arose to make a statement He re
marked that for forty yaars be had been a member of
that body, ai d had never earned tbe reputation of an
«cciu»er of hi, breibreß, 80, huw.Tcr, bad beoa eom

The Bishop remarked. Thank God the hearts of Method

given j and a score of voice responded—“ Thank God!”
Bev. John H. Dasbiell desired to be heard. He had
mode come remoiki during the debates which hod here;
tofore taken place, which had given offence. He had
said Bev. A. A. Keeee was the watchdog of tho Confe
rence* questioning the loyalty of men. To which Rev.
Beeße said he had only fifteen men !u custody, referring
to the men on the negative of the ro«olution offered
March 5. This answer called forth another from Rev.
Dasblt-il to Hie effect that he wished lm had a jailor with
a betttr he>.> 1 ui.d more euviabie reputation. Thia lat
ter is what he desired to recall.
Bev. A. A. l'resc desired to recall also his answer and
anything that bad been offensive to fife brethren.
Bev. It. IL.Chambers hod written alctter to the Car
lisle fferakl some mouths ago stating tlmt it was puonr*
ed that of the forty Methodist preachers in Baltimore
ten or twelve were Secessionist*. Am m* ttn>m it ww

Asa reporter of the proceedings in the Conference, I
have heretofore carefully avoided Bpeaking of the perso
nalities indulged in iu debates —tho criminations and re
criminations or those Christian brethren—for various
reasons. Since they are thus honorably adjusted and
every man has made the proper concessions, 1 report
them in part. A leeling of perfect concord and harmony
prevailed throughout the assembly thia morning when
these bitter personalities were laid aside, and all were
permitted to see ej eto eye. The public, however* are
not to misapprehend tbe*position of the Conference
in regard to thismatter of loyalty ■ for 4 if snflloiunt
proof Is given of a mimater’s disloyalty to the Go
vernment of tbe United States* aud such chirgcs are
preferred And sustained, such a minister would be
expelled immediately. A young xnau of the first year,
Kev. William J. Simpson, was this morning discon
ifeded, as pvAaf vu given that ha was dielftyal to th*
Government under which he lived.
There seems to be but one mind in regard to the mat

Several members re prosonted him as having attondod

lirtbo Supreme Court) yesterday, for the first time aince
the passago of the law of 1839, the constitutionality of
that part of it which provides that soldiers in aetual mill*
tary service, by authority of the Stat* or of the Fodorat
Government, shall be entitled to vote wherever they may
be, eaino up for argument and an authoritative decision
by the tribunal of last resort in tbit* Commonwealth. The
case in question is that of a contested oloctionfor the
office of District Attorney for Luzerne county, wherein
Jerome G. Miller was declared, by the Court of Quarter
Sessions for that county, duly elected by the army vote,
as against his competitor, Ezra B. Chase, the latter hav
ing received a majority of the votes cagt within the
county.
The case was submitted to the court below, aud was
argued on the following agreed slate of faois i
u It is agreed the following facts he submitted as a case
stated for the court’s decision. Admitted that, of tbo
votes polled within the county of Luzerne, Ezra B. Chase
received 6.811 votes, and that Jerome G. Miller re
ceived 5,646, and that the said number of votes by each
reWYtd be counted by the cou»t as legal, Tfcat of the
votes polled by the volunteers in the army, E. B. Chase
received 58 votes, &nd Jerome G. Miller received 362
votes. But the legality of the votes polled Dy the volun
teers in the army not being admitted, the question as to
tho legal effect thereof is submitted as matter of law for
the court. If the court should be of opinion that the army
vote is constitutional mid legal) the saute to bo allowed
by tlie court, and added to the votes cast in the county
for the party or parties in whose faver they may be, and
then the court to decide in favor of the party having the
greatest number of votes. If no part of the army vote is
received, the decree to be in favor of Air. Chase, the
army vote being taken as above stated ? the objections to
jt being all waived except hb to its constitutionality.* 7
The case came up before Judge Conyogham, of Lu
zerne county, or- tbe foregoing agreement, and tho facts
and the opinion of the court were filed by him in favor
of the constitutionality of the army vote. He, thereupon,
decreed ihai Jerome G. Miliar was duly elected to the
office of District Attorney for Luzerne county.
It was upon an appeal from this decree that the easels
now before the Supreme Court, and in view of the fact
that at least two of our most important county offices
may be affected, viz: sheriff and Clerk or Orphans’
Court, a decision will be anxiously awaited.

with 1.500,000 gallons to spare.
Dr. Uhlbk t-poke relative to a disease peculiar to the
people residing in Kensington, said to be caused by tbe
impure water from this basin. He cited a case of a
family suffering from the dissase in question who drank
no Kensington water. While this was the case he fa
vnrM the resolution. The great fieh-cldauiug &»p6t at
Gunner’s run, which lets large quantities of offal into
the very fore* bay of the Kensington water works, in
in summer time must be very unhealthy. But part of
Kensington is supplied from the Fairmount works, and
the peculiar disease is quite as prevalent there as in the
other section where Delaware water is drank. Dr.
Übler thought that here was a line field for investigation,
and that examinations into the different properties of tho
two waters should be carefully made.
Baltimobb, March 11
Mr. Wbthbuill expressed an apprehension that the
tax upon the machinery at Fairmount weuld be too
great to supply all Kraiingtout Instead of a surplus of
I*soo*ooo gallons* the capacity of the works was but
80,000,000 gallons in four days.
Mr. Mkgary explained that for two months Fainnount
could easily furnish the supply. The difficulty require!
prompt remedy. Mr. Dallas, naval contractor, who is
superintending the building of the iron-dad steamer at
Kensington, said that fifty of bis men had been taken
sick, during a single day, from drinking this water.
Fairmouut can give a supply until tho Kensington re
servoir and works can bo examined.
Mr. Fox stated that the proper connection can be
made at Vine street, and tbe water immediately let into
Ktnsington.
Mr. Cassis said that the Council committee, in con
junction with tho Board of Health* had united in
Birongly recommending the measure. The experiments
would be doue without expense to the city* and should
be made forthwith.
Dr. UiiLEßgaiil that the disease was very malignant in
a family of seven persons living at Front and Coates
streets. One of the family had spent a day at his house,
and waß cured in that short time. Another had spent a
day at hiß brother’s house* with tbe same beneficial re
sult. Tbe Kensington water was drank by neither. Ex
periments could be made as to the water in a week, and
the cause of the disease could then be ascertained.
The resolution passed finally.

Mr. Mclmtybs offeree aa an amendment* that the chief
engineer, under the direction of the committee, be em

evtr, teltevtd it was a suitable time to reduce the sala
ries of the professors.
Mr. Baisckk contended that tho Councils had no au
thority to reduce the salaries of tho professors. He cited
from tho laws of the city, made before and since consoli
dation, to atimv that tho Legislature must repeal certain
)a*s before the Councils could make the proposed reduc
tion.
Mr. Quins thought tho attacks on the High School
were ill-udviswl. He thought tho High School had not
as yet given n proper rotum for its cost. lie thought
this was the result of some mismanogemont in its con
trol. He thought it paid, as an institution, by elevating
the standard of education in tho other schools. lie
thought that, while fouteHug democratic mutilation* in
our midst, it was welt known that the graduates were
uioro aristocratic than their qualifications warranted.
Tho Chair called the speaker to ordor, after ho had
rambled a long distance from the subject of debate.
IfcFin&Uy, after cons derable debate, the amendment was J

sion of whole numbers.
Payment of Water Rents.—For
the past week tbe small and narrow quarters occupied
by the "Water Departmert, at the corner of Fifth and
Che&tnut streets, have been daily crowded with property
owners anxious to settle their bills. Owing to -(he gntitll
apartments occupied by the clerßs, the bufiuesj of this
department of tho city is gonorally much retarded, espe
cially at this time of the year, when tho rush of those
who are always behind time in settling their aooounts
with the city is very great. During the present week the
(mn3 anil the r.coipts at this department h»TO btt«B
daily augmented. The receipts on Tuesday reached
about $7,000, on Wednesday about $9,000, and yesterday
they were over $lO,OOO. After the Ist of April, those
who have not paid their bills will have aq additional fire
per cent, added to the amount. An extract from tbe or
dinances regulatiDg tbe Department of Water says:
•* Water rente are payable annually' in advance on the
second Monday of January. On the Ist of April five per
cent, will be added on all unpaid rents, and on the first of
July after an additional ten per cent., and all promises
upon which tho routs aud charges remain unpaid on the
Ist of September will be deprived of the water, aud the
amount sued fur, with two dollars added for tho expense
of cutting off, find nil premises in arrears will be deprived
of the water until the same is paid.” Wo understand
that, owiug to the temporary dulness of business this
year, an effort will be made iu Councils to have the time
for the payment of water rents further extended.
Annual Conference of the M. E.
CHURCH.—On Wednesday next, tho Fifty ninth Session
of tbe Philadelphia Methodist Conference will be com
menced at the Union M. 11 Church, on Fourth street,
below Arch. Besides a' large portion of Eastern Penn
sylvania, this Conference includes iu its bounds a portion
of Delaware and Maryland. During the last session,
among the many interesting subjects introduced, aud
which will no doubt be agitated this year, was the divi
eion of the Conference. It was proposed to divide by
the State fine betweon Pennsylvania, Delaware, and
Maryland, the advocates of the measure being residents
south of that lino. The subject was referred to a corn
niittee, wlio reported tbat> iu yiow of the national ilifß.
culties and embarrassments, and the disturbed condition
of the public mind, aud the conflicting opinions of the
churches in Delaware and Maryland on the subject,
a division waß deemed inexpedient at that time. The
committee recommended to the Quarterly Conference of
the Peninsula a consideration of the matter, with a view
to future action. The report of the committee way
adopted. The slavery question was also agitated at the
last Conference, and it was disposed of without much de
bate. A preamble and resolution was submitted by the
Committee on the State of the Church, in which it was
declared to be iudispeuß&bly necessary to tbe restoration
of peace and harmony in the Southern borders of the
CobfeMUCe, that the ft MV Chapter Ah febW4t?, Inserted in
tbe Discipline, should be repealed, and requesting the
General Conference at its next session to repeal the same.
The chapter referred to was supposed by some to embody
a new condition of membership.
Larceny of a School Teacher’s
WARRANT.—Thomas McNeely was put on trial yes
terday, in Court of Quarter Sessions, charged with the
larceny of a warrant or order for money. The evi
dence against tbe Accused was that Miss Chalmers, a
school teacher, had in her possession two wart ants, each
for $87.50. They were long overdue, and she wa i aux
icud to eucure the money. McNeely, with whom she
was acquainted, volunteered to get them cashed by Dr.
McCHutock, City Treasurer, and upon the 25th of Feb
ruary, Mrs Chalmers, the mother of the owner of the
warrants took the two, and met Mr. McNoely at the Gi
rard Bank- After an interview with Dr* McCHutock,
McNeely requested Mm Chalmers to baud him the war
rants and Bbe did so. A check for one of the warrants
was then given to her by the book-keeper, aud she was
told by McNeely that thero was not money for
the second warrant She requested the return of the un
paid warrant, but was told by McNeely that it had
been placed on file by Dr* MuClintock and would be paid
the next day, and an appointment wab then made for the
next day. Mrs Chalmers the a ascertained that the war
rant hau not been placed on file, and a subsequent ad
vertisemeof brought to light the fact that It bad been
sold to a broker. A verdict of guilty wasjrendered, and
senteaw d?f«r«!. ■
Celebration op St. Patrick’s Dat.
—Monday next, the anniversary of the birth of St.
Patrick, will be appropriately celebrated by the Irish
men of this city. Tho absence in tbe army of tbe volun
teer Irish companies will prevent tbe usual military pa
rade lt is expected, however, that the two
regiments of the Irish Brigade, now recruiting in this
city* will turn out.
In the evening, an oration will be delivered by Dr.
Moriorty, on St Patrick, at the Academy of Music, at
half past seven o’clock.
The Hibernian Society will meet in the
the Continental, and will participate in the festivities of
an annual dinner.
At St. Patrick's Church* in the morning* there will be
an orchestral performance, and Hajdn’e Mass No. 3 vrisl
be sung by tbe choir* under the direction of FroL M: F,
Aledo.
At this church there will be a solemn Pontifical Mass
A. M., celebrated by Bight Bev. Dr. Wood. Tbe
panegyric of the great apostle of Ireland will be preached
by Bev. B Maguire, S. J., of Washington, D. C., and
late president of Georgetown Collego*
Aid for the Port Royal Contra-
BANDS —Successful efforts are being made in this and
other cities to raise a fund, by volunteer concerts, lec
tureg* Ac«for the relief and instruction ot the negroes at
Port Boyal* who are now in a helpless condition 0 suing to
tbe flight of their masters. The committee appointed at
the meeting recently held at National Hal! state that not
only must these poor creatures be provided from some
quarter with tbe subsistence and clothing heretofore re
ceived from their masters* but medical attendance* and
some sort of instruction in the arts of civilization, of
which they have thus far been in . perfect ignorance.
These negroes have been reduced to their present helpless
state through no misconduct of their own. Faithful to
the condition of their lot, they were found by our army
at work on the plantations which their masters had
abandoned. A concort in aid of this object wits given at
Concert Hall last evening by the Hutchinson Family.
The Oyster Trade —During the
past few weeks parties engaged in the oyster trade have
tern wmewhftt pentad fewum of tho impossibility of
procuring such stock as is desirable. Tbe oysters now
brought to this city are said to be of very inferior quali
ty, and the supply ia not equal te the demand. No oys
ters from Virginia* except those on the coast of the East
ern Shore, are brought to this city* and so
eagerly nought after by the public houses that few or
Bono fail ioto Ae band* of ike packing Irade. The large
supplies from York river and Lynnhaveu bay of former
years are still cut off, and they were generally the last
that found their way to this market. Spruce-street
wharf, the main market for all the oysters arriving here,
has presented* within the past week* a much duller scene
than usual.
In Town.— Yesterday Lieut. Bird,
of the Fourth Maine Regiment, recently released from
the Richmond prfeon, was in this city. Lieut. Bird was
wounded trnd takeo prisoner at Bull ftuui §nd languished
In prison until within a week or so, when he was ex
changed. Be is now absent on sick leave. His escape
from death was almost miraculous. A musket ba l struck
him on tbe left side of the forehead and penetrated the
skull. The ball then split into two pieces, separating,
and one of them penetrating the brain itself. One of the
pfecto woe oxtyuMed on the day of thd battle but the
other remaintd when 1 it bad lodged until a Federal sar
geon extracted it at Fortress Monroe, last week. The
indentation in Ihe skull actually allows the pulsation of
the brain to be seen. Pieces of the skull were extracted
with the ball and have betu preserved.
Salting the Streets.—The commit
tee of Councils having charge of the investigation in re
ference to the salting of railroad trucks have received
from the College of Physicians a lengthy report on the
Butject* in which they maintain that, in their opinion,
there ie no evidence that tne praotice of salting the rail
way tracts exerts any injurious influence on the health
of the citizens. They suggest the necessity of making
provision, by ordinance, for keeping open the gutters
aud Inlets to tho sewers at the period when the snow is
melting, and for keeping the footways at the intersection
of the railways free from the melting anow and ice.
Sentences.— The. following persons
have been sentenced in the Court of Quarter Sessions:
Susan Gibson and Susan Morris, colored women, lar
ceny, plea of guilty. The first was sentenced to twelve
months and the latter nine months* county prison.
Robert Thomas, larceny, plea guilty : four months.
William Ellis, two bills of larceny, 01 a watch and gold
rings; plea of guilty. He made a speech before receiving
sentence. lie said he was poor and without friends, and
that necessity compelled him to steal. He pledged him-

four inches thick, and no heavy that fifteen or twenty

The Soldiers’ Hospital at Broad
ANI) CUKRttY STREETS.—Every one knows that
there are many comforts widen sick and wounded soldiers
need that no military hospital affords. It was to furnnh
these that Florence Nightingale and her efficient corps of
nurses went to the Crimea. It is to supply the crowdod
wards of tbe soldiers’ hospital, at Broad and Cherry
streets, with such hunmue donatinns, that a society of
ladies, irrespective of church membership, has been
forned, and a depot established, at the Rev. Dr. Sud
durd’s (Episcopal) church, corner of Twolfthand Cherry
streets.
This society has been in active operation for about
three months, and have, time far, finished aud furnished
eo many hundred garment? fur the suffering troo j? that
have been daily arriving at this extensive hospital, that
tbeir stock cm hand is now well nigh exhausted; and it
will, doubtless, be quite sufficient for us to give toe assu
rance to our readers that aid is needed to securo liberal
voluutary contributions for an effort that needs n* words
ofonni to wnmmri it to the warmest syuipaihtesof every
loyal heart.
It may bo interesting for us to state in this connection
that there are now no less than six hundred and fifty sol
diers at this hospital—most of whom have little or no
means of buying anything—that they are mostly etrau
gcT» in this cliy, many of w&om bear honorable but
frightful life-long wounds. For the information of those
desiring to give what will be useful, we would suggest
that there is a constant call for under-clothing,
drugget or carpet slippers, and other articles of that
description, to alleviate the sufferings of tbe wounded;
and that the material, manufactured goods, or. money
would be equally acceptable. There is also great demand
f/,Y h»-6iia by those recovering from fever?, they being
allowed by tbe attending surgeons, and are exceedingly
grateful to the parched palates of the patients
We Central Soldier’s Aid Society, with
confidence, to the consideration of our readers. It
meets on every Friday.
Behoved.—An order yns recently
Issued by tbe Mayor, instructing the lieutenants 5f tho
different police districts to report at headquarters all
poles, signs, Ac., that were hung in a dangtirous condi
tion. This order has had the effect of removing two
large liberty-poles, one on Third street, below Green,
and tbe other at Ninth and Green streets, both of which
were much decayed, and in danger of falling. '
A Patriotic Thief.— A few Sights
since, an oil painting of General McClellan was. stolen
from the Vohuteer Refreshment Saloon. - The painting
wav recently -to tiM* ealoon, uSkwsf felgbly
prized by the com iiittee as a perfect likeness of our young
and gallant Commander-in-chief, as well as for its orna
mental feature to the saloon.
Militaky.—Captain H. A. Bead, of
the Ninety-ninth Regiment, Pennsylvania Volunteers,
has been promoted to major in said regiment; also, Lieut.
A. H. fr&yder, of the same regiment, has been promoted
to captain. Major Read and Captain Snyder aro both
from this city.
Bequest to the Protestant Epis-
COPAL CHUBOH.—We learn .that tbe will of Louisa
Gibson* just recorded at the Register of Wills* office, con
tains a bequest of SlOO to tbe Society of.the Protestant
Episcopal Church for the advancement otUhristianity in
Pennsylvania.
Indications of Warm Weather.—
A day or two since several flocks of wild geese passed
over the city in a northern direction. The presence of
these fowls indicates that the winter has passed, and they
are now relurtilug to tli6 ftreat lakes at the North, where
they spend the summer and rear their young.
Robbery.— Two lads entered Hams’
jewelry store, on Bidge avenue, betwebn Fourteenth and
Plftwnth gtrasU. cll WddLtoday, white the attendant w&a
in a back room, and carried off two gold watches and one
silver watch. The young scoundrels were net arrested.
Rock Fish.—A large rock fish, weigh
ins uineteea pounds, was caught, a few days since, at
Faii-mount. This is the'first of that species captured
this Eeason.
Died Suddenly.— A German, named
Huttner Yachob. a native of Baden-Baden* died suddenly
yesterday morning, at Marcia Fisher’s Inn, in Water
