THE CITY.
Charity Hospital.
Philadelphia, to long famed lor her charitable institu
tions, seems still to maintain her pre-eminence in that
regard, it we may judge from the continued efforts, on
the pari of lit-rlieuev-'lciilcillzeus, io meet Die Increasing
demands upon tlioir charitable assistance in a thousand
different vajs. Bnpported mainly, and some entirely,
by voluntary contributions, onr chirities are a source <*f
■wonderment to the stranger, who is surprised that we do
so much and so well. TbeChnrity lloapltdl, to wlliftll
we would call the attention of the public, promises to
take position in the first rank of our benevolent institu
tions. Founded in 1557, by some philanthropic gentle
men, and dependent wholly upon the Individual offerings
of a Tew, it lisb Hfruggh-d along, dispensing Us benefits
to all who applied with as liberal a hand as its limited
resources would Allow. Its design presents the merits of
a general and lying-in hospital, as well as those of a
hospital for ereclaltifs. Following the mode adopted in
Europe. medicine is divided there into several depart-
each one of which ia under the charge of a dif
ferent physician, who has a ward or wards allotted and
prepared for the peculiar treatment of his specialty.
This plan, successfully carried out, must result in great
benefit to the community in not only affording those who
may apply for aid tho advantages of a more speedy relief
and euro, but also of Grouting a profitable school of medU
cine, wherein the student can acquire a more thorough
knowledge of each department of practical medicine by
carefully observing the large number and great variety
of each class of diseases which may successively present
then, selves.
The lying-in department alone should enlist the chari
table sympathies of our wealthy Christian ladles, who
could not do better than to aid iu securiug to their poorer
sisters a comfortable retreat during tho anxious period of
parturition. An extensive field is hero presented them
to exercise their Christian philanthropy, and certainly
great results, both to the Buffering and themselves, would
follow its generous and acrive cultivation. It is to he re
gretted that other hospitals do not provide for this class,
and that no other resorts than tho charity hospital and
almhousc exist where the poor female may find refupe at
that anxious period.
Funds are greatly needed to enable itfl OlliCOMtO COUI
- the woik of improvement so long desired, in order
to put it iu a state of perfect efficiency. A hospital of
grand proportions, aud mcd« lied according to the original
design, would he a noble mouumeut to our benevolence,
and would he the some* of inappreciable good to the poor
of our city, Ir is under tho direction of zeaioua and at
tentive physicians, and the ladies composing the Ladies 1
Hoard deserve great credit for the attention and active
y.eal they have shown in its recent management. No
charity claims more earnestly or justly the sympathy and
uwiwt 9? 9W 9itis?M than this, sro! it is truly to im
hoped that every one who can spare something, whether
little or much, will donate it to tho Charity Hospital.
Articles serviceable in an hospital might sometimes be
given more easily than money. Those who could thus
give are requested to send conti ibntions to the Charity
Hospital, Buttonwood below Broad. Donations in money
and annual contributions will be gratefully received by
Mrs. H. Overjiau, Secretary of Ladies 1 Board, IG‘29
Green street: or, Mrs. John W. Forney, 618 Locust
street.

the maintenance and perpetuity of good government, and
to sustain the powers that be in this great struggle;
therefore
Mesolvedtjst. That while wedisclaim all connection
with political parties, yet ns loyal ministers, in Confer

rence and opposition to the present rebellion as being the
offspring of treason, aud the instrument of the destruc
tion of the best Government of the world.
Reset ved* 2d. Tluit the army aud the navy have our
deepest sypipathy aim fervent prayers, and that we

and hope we lift our hearts to Him by whom kings reign
and prince? decree justice, that victories may continue to
Mw ns until <?nr brethren Sortli, South, East, and West
united may leirn war no more.

ns a body, on morning, of ——, at o’clock. '
0. That a £Opy Of Ilia foy&goihg be transmitted to the
President of the United States, signed by the presiding
Bishop, and countersigned by the secretary of the Con
ference.
A minority report was presented as follows:
UVfcreas, It is our dnty, both from the terms of com
mission us>ministers of the Gojpel, and from our ordina
tion vows. 10 be men of one work; to give ourselves
wholly to the ministry of the Word, and the care of
Christ’s flock, which he purchased with his blood: and
Whereas, Then; exists a state of things in this coun
try, growing cut of a wicked rebellion against the Go -
Tenraicnt, vliicli rend era it iuiligpuniable to an unotu
strutted fulfilmect of duty that our loyalty be above
suspicion, therefore.
Resolved, 1. That we. the members of the Philadel
phia Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, in
Conference ;ȣHembled, will, and hereby do, solemnly re
assume our vows to give ourselves wholly to the work
YiheieiiDTO we are called* entering in at every open door
to pitach “ the uusearahahhj riches of Christ.”
2. That no door, now open, may be closel against us,
either by the expression of political preferences, or on
the ground of any suspicion of disloyalty to the Govern
ment, we respectfully rtqnest the V. S. Marshal of this
district to bo present on the day of this month, at
o 7 ciock, for the purpose of administering the oath of
allegiance, w hereby we may assure ah good citizens of
our loja’tyto the Government, tko ( Constitution, and the
laws of the United States. *
5. That thjs preamble and resolutions be published in
the Christian Advertiser and Journal , and that other
paper* circulating within our bounds be requested to
copy* 0. GUOK.
The Bev. P. Coombe presented a substitute for both
papers, recognizing the United States Government aB or
dained of God, and that only tire actiou of the people can
dissolve the Union ; announcing the loyalty of the M. E.
Church; declaring that all grievances may be redressed
under the Ccindilutiouj endorsing the policy Qf tltf Ad
ministration and the prosecution of the war. Further,
the resolutions declare as follows:
5. That we specially approve the position taken by the
President, that “ this i ebellion is the rebellion of indi
viduals, and not the rebellion of Statesthat tlie’Con
stituticn being the supreme law of iho land, no State has
thought to withdraw from the Union, and, therefore, the
action of State officers to effect this object is a usurpation
ot official authority, and cannot change the legal position
of the State, nor destroy its rights under the Constitution.
6. That as the constitutional right of a State caunot
be destroyed by the illegal action of its officers, nor by
tlxe rebellion of its citizens, the General Government can
not cmißlittitiona ly interfere with the domestic affairs of
any such State. bur, as slavery, which is controlled by
the States where it exists, lias been made the occasion
of this war, the Gtuerul Government may co-operate
with such States for the removal of this evil from the
land. We, therefore, do most cordially uoite with the
President in paying, “That the United States ought to
CO-oparatO With »«>• Slate which may adopt a gradual
abolishment of slavery, giving to snch State pecuniary
aid, to be used by such State, at its discretion, to com
pensate for the inconvenience, public and private, pro
duced by such change cf system.”
7. That the President deserves, and shall receive, out
most hearty support in his wite and lirm resistance to
the measures of the ultra-Abolitionists cn the one hand,
and to pro-slaveiy Secessionists on the other.
S. That the success which has lately attended the
efforts of our brave and loyal soldiers not only proves
the skill of those who planned the campaign, but it fur
nishes cause of devout gratitude to Almighty God, who
has caused them to triumph over (he enemies of the
Union
{*. That as God h*s ordained that civil rulers shall not
only be “a praise to them that do well,” but also that
they shall he ‘ the ministers of God to execute wrath
upon him tbat dneth evil,” the Government, in order to
fulfil its divine mission, should not only protect loyal
ju/n. wherever fotihd, bul It should also bring to just And
certain punishment 1 lie leaders in this most wicked re
bellion.
10. That a~ Christian ministers, wo will moßt ardently
pray that the President, hia Cabinet, and both Houses of
Congress, together with all who are in authority, may be
80 guided and controlled by Divine Wisdom that the re
bellion may soon be put down, and that peace be restored
to our distracted country.

A Divorce Case upon tiie Plea of
DISLOYALTY.—A curious divorce case transpired last
\ve*k in Harrisburg, the complainant in which is a Phi
ladelphian.
It seems that in February, 1860, Mias Katharine
Brown, the daughter of a well-known druggist, was
luiihtl to rrt. fleorge Henry Hopbine, of Winchester, V».
The match was an uncongenial one, and tho petitioner
alleges that Hopkins treated her with marked neglect,
indifference, and cruelty. He finally forsook her iu
February Inst, and has since, it is believed, made ailegi.
auce to the Confederate Government. Upon the ground,
mainly, of his disloyalty, the petitioner asks for a fnli
and final divorce. £ho is corroborated, as to thedisloyal
ty of Hopkins, by Chief L. 0. Baker, of the Government
detective police.
The petition of Mrs. Hopkins is explicit as to details,
and narrates many incompatibilities ot disposition aod
seniinieut She lays, fofi lUAiapU, that «dii thi QOtk
December, 1860, we had a discussion upon the speech of
Tlios. R. Colb. of Georgia, when my husband argued
bis Secession views with such violence as to cause me
great faintness and illness. He seemed to regret his vio
lence, professed repentance, and, with a show of great
love for my mother and myself, threw aside his objaitions
to my going to visit my parents in his absence. He left
for Virginia on the 22d December, IS6O, aud did not re
turn until the 4th of January, 1861, when he passed
through the city and went fit et to Germautown to his
mother, where he remained several hours —thus passing
by without any knowledge or inquiry as to uiy condition*
having been without any intelligence from me for five or
six days. He had especial dislike to my habitg of care
for expenditure, and neglected no opportunity to ridicule
and condemn them.”
Again: “He strove constantly to impress me with
dietrnst of my menial capacity, and to impress upnn mo
his belief that my memory was failing through disease.
Although this caused me much anguish and apprehen
sion, I am happily unconscious of any abatement of
memory or any other mental faculty, and have the satis
faction of knowing that all who hold me dear and know
hie belt hftvi ant yet puu&iv&l no reason for so distill
ing an opinion ”
The petition is well written, and a strong case seems
to have been made out by tho petitioner.
The Army Vote.—The Act of 1839
DECLARED UNCONSTITUTIONAL—Ba Saturday,
in the Coint of Quarter Sessions, before Judge Allison,
District Attorney Mann called up the case of Joseph
Kunzman, charged with illegal voting at Camp Kalora
niH, District of Columbia. Kunzman is a member of C >l.
Baliier’s Regiment, and it was siUeged that he voted with
out being naturalized* After the defendant hivV. been ur«
reigned, Mr. F. C. Brewster, his counsel, filed the follow
ing demurrer:
And the said Joseph Kunzman, in his own proper per
son, conies into court here, ami having heard the said in
dictment read, says that the said indictment, and the
mutter;) therein contained, in manner and form as tho
same, ns above stated and .set forth, are not sufficient in
law, and that ho is not bound by the law c>f the land to
answer for the same, and this he is ready to verify;
wherefore, for waut of sufficient indictment in this behalf,
be prays judgment, aod that by the court he may be dis
missed, and discharged from the'same premises in the
said indictments specified.
And the said defendant, according to the statute in such
cages made and provided, specifies the following as his
causes of demurrer: That the forty-third section of tho
act of Assembly, passed July 2, 1839, referred to in said
indictment, is unconstitutional and void.
That said section is in conflict with the first section of
the third article of the Constitution of this Common
wealth.
That said section does not authorize an election to be
held out'ide of the State of Ppcmsylvania.
That said section has been repealed. That said law is
in conflict with tlie Constitution of the United States.
To this Mr. Mann presented a rejoinder, and tbe case
was ready for argument.
Mr. Brewster opened the argument and gave a history
of the legislation in Pennsylvania, on the subject of the
elective franchise.
In 1790, the Constitution of the State contained a pro
vision in the first section of article three, that every
freumnof the age ot' tiventr-one years, haying resided
in tbe State two years before the election, and within that
lime paid a State or county tax, shall enjoy the rights of
an elector.
No reference to the “district” is made in the Consti
tution k of 1790. That was found to be an omission,
and. in IS3S, tho new Constitution copied that section,
interpolating a clause forbidding a vote unless the elector
hud resided in the particular district where be offered to
vole.
The legislation kept pace with the Constitution, for, in
the Legislature enacted that volunteers in the ser
vice sbc ul Ibe entitled to vote. That might be regardvd
as c*nptilutlonal, for the Constitution of 1799 contained
no reference to districts. The amended Constitution
went into operation on the Ist of January, 1839, and
upon the 2d cf July, 1839, tho Legislature passed a con
solidat'd .election law, and, in the forty-third section,
they saw fit to copy the section of the law of 1313. This
was dearly an accident. ’
Mr Brewster then'addreseed himself to the question of
domicile or residence, and cited authorities to ostabliah
that a man did not lose his domicile by leaving tho Stato
upon public service. lie then referred to the difficulties
that would grow out oi tlie law in the matter of imposing
penalties for the violation of this law. The Constitution
of Ibc United Stales declares that every person shall bo
prosecuted, tried and punished in the State where the
offer ce is committed.
Mr. Ufa m, in reply, took the ground that the “ dis
trict” was no part of the qualification of an elector.
The qualifications are, that he shall be a white freeman;
next, of the age of 21 years j and next, that he shall have
paid a tax-.
The allusion to the residence is merely directory as to
where he shall vote or exercise the right given him.
The object of ilie law-, if fairly carried out, cannot con
flict with the Constitution. The only difficulty is that
the citizens do not have the privilege of overlooking the
votes thus deposited by soldiers, or of exercising the right
to challenge. Then- Is notblog in the ConelUuiion touch
ing the subject of challenge. The soldier does not loso
his residence, and*in voting be sends his vote to the place
where he resides to be counted.
After the argument, judge Allison entered judgment
on the demurrer and discharged the defendant, and thus
declared the act of 1859 unconstitutional. At tho same
time lie expressed the hope tbat the Supreme Court would
soon give an opinion on the question.
Military Matters.—Company F, of
Col. liobtrt B Patterson's rcsimenti was mustered in on
Saturday. The soldiers of the First California Regiment
will in great part join Col. Patterson. The places of
Capt Koffer, Lieut. Kenney, Lieut. W. H. Kern, Lieut.

Railroad Matters. —An unusual
number of railroad bills and supplements relative to
Philadelphia engross the attention •of Philadelphia.
Tho Bouse of Representatives has authorized the trans

On Saturday morning a serious accident occurred on
the North Pennsylvania Railroad, at Dauphin street. As

track. All efforts to avoid a collision proved of no avail.
The wagon was struck by the locomotive, and completely
demolished. The vehicle was occupied by Mrs. Auna L.
Davenport, who was seriously injured.
The Harmony Engine and tiie Fire
ASSOCIATION.—The bill allowing the Harmony Fire
Company to receive their dividends from the Fire Asso
ciation was before the Home, at Harrisburg, last week,
and postponed. The intention of this bill is to override
ft dcckion ol the gupr£hto Court. The Hutwmy Fire
Company has been out of Bervice for yews, and has no
apparatus. It was an original member of the Fire Asso
ciation, and was entitled, while in service, to dividends
from profits of the Association for the maintenance of its
apparatus And usefulness to the poblic. The few indi
■yidwdrt who bay© held on to the Harmony ask for the
dividends which the company would bo entitled to if in
service. Tim Supreme Court decided tbat by going out
of service the company lost a right to the dividends. The
surviving members want a law to compel the Association
to pay over the money.

unnolicnl. The 22d of February, for many years a
deeply interesting occasion, is now to all true Americans,
whether at home or abroad, a sacred one. Let ua on
this day cast aside all worldly occupations, and with
manly hearts and Christian faith implore the God of our
fathers that the great Republic, which Washington ai>4
iiis noble coadjutors founded, may not become the prey of
misguided zealots-and maddened traitors; but that our
beloved country—with all its constitutional liberties un-
InipHired, and the blot of Southern slavery removed —
may emerge from its present fiery baptism with increased
materiel power, and a vaster moral influence.
Deeply impressed with tliii view. I hereby request that
the i ational ensign be hoisted, on said day, on all Ameri
can vessels in port, and that every loyal citizen of tbe
United States at these islands abstain from business, and
manifest a proper and beooming observance of the me
morable occasion. JOHN E. NEWPORT,

Opening Exercises of the Arcii-
STREET M. E. CHURCH.—For some years the sub
ject of opening a church for the Methodist form of wor
ship cu Arcii Btreet has been agitated by different pro
minent gentlemen connected with that denomination in
this city, and at one time the matter had gone so far that
a site, upon which a church could ha erected, was se
lected. But this, like other attempts at the same conclu
sion, foil through on account of a lack of lutorost being
manifested by some of those who had the matter in hand,
and the subject at length became a matter of tlie past,
aud by some was considered entirely lost, until a few
young gentlemen again brought tbe subject before their
respective congregations a few months since. Their ef
forts W6i*A £ii)66Urdged by men ol means in the church,
who assured them of their support, and the gentlemen set
about their undertaking with considci Able zeal, and ou
Saturday afternoon last the second-story room of the
building situated on the northeast corner of Broad and
Arch was announced as the “ Arch-street M. E. Church,”
find was thrown open for the inspection of the public
The room is beautifully fitted up, with an eye to neat
ness and comfort, and an invitation is extended to the
public to attend.
Yesterday morning the church was crowded to its ut
most capacity, and many were compelled to go away,
there not being sufficient room for their accommodation.
Tho exercises were opened by singing the hymn—
“Fromall that dwell below the skies,
Let the Creator’s praise arise.”
After prayer the meeting was addressed by the Rev.
J. P. Durbin, from Luke xv: 10—“ Likewise I say unto
you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over
one sinner that repentoth.”
The Breaker said that he had chosen this teat as the
one most suitabie for the occasion, as it was the precur
sory idea to deep and sublime thought and labor. His
remarks were listened to throughout with great atten
tion.
The services of the afternoon were opened by singing,
which was followed by the Rev. Wesley Kenney taking
the chair* and a prayer from the Rev Franklin Moore,
A. M., after which tho Bev. Francis Hudson was called
upon by tbe chairman for an address. He congratulated
them for having undertaken Buch a glorious work, and
hoped that its philanthropic efforts might be crowned
with undying glory and success. Mr. Hudson was
followed by the Itev Dr. Holich, of New York. He spoke
of Vbiladelphia being bis native city, and recollected
when there were but four of the Methodist faith in the
city. He spoke of their proximity to the Baptist church,
and said that their churchy could not interfere one
with the other. They could go on in the good work, and
fit could the new church thej were then founding. The
field of labor wag one common field in which all could
labor, and each one could help the other in the good
work.
The speaker was followed by the Bev. Francis Moore,
and others, after which a meeting of those who wished
to become scholars or teachers was called, and the
foundation for a Sabbatbt school was laid.
In the evening, a sermon was delivered by the Rev.
Theodore Stevens to a crowded bouse.
It is understood that the Conference, now sitting in
this city, will appoint a pastor for the church this week.
Tbe Rev. Alfred Cookman will preach at tliis church
on 'Wednesday evening next, the 28th iust.

lutions were offered and unanimously adopted:
Resolved, That the Republican Convention of the city

wc, as Republican?, owe to its national and historic im
portance, declare our unanimous and unqualified ap
proval of—the recent special message of Abraham Lin
coln upon the question of emancipation, as one of the
most efficient means of self-preservation at the hands of
the National Government, recognizing, as we do, the
wisdom* honesty of purpose, and love of country which,
under Providence, have guided the President iu his views
and purposes, as expressed in this admirable State paper.
Resolved, Tbat the people look to Congress for practi
cal, speedy, and ei ergetic co-operatiou in the policy thus
indicated ; not doubting the largest measure of benefit to.
be derived, South as well' »b North, in the extinguish
ment of every obstacle which lies in the way of tho na
tion’s peace, and the permanent re'establishment of the
national authority over the whole country.
