    THE CITY.
Ikon-clad Vessels.— Since the en
gagement at Hampton Roads between the Monitor and
tb? rebel steamer Mtrrimac* wooden vessels hare become
obsolete, add tho Government, it seems, has turned its
attention chiefly to the construction of iron-clad men-of
war. The affair on that day proved that the largest and „
best-nppoloted wooden frigates are but pasteboard houses,
made to be knocked down, Tho mania for Iron.clad
vessels has ev» n taken hold of the people, and during last
week thousands flocked daily to the ship yard of Messrs.
Cramp & Bone, Kensington, where is being constructed a
vessel which will, without doubt, prove one of tho finest
of its kind in the world, Tbe visitors to this yard in one
day reached nearly 5,000 persons, and the rush became
bo great that it was found necessary to close the gates, as
the operations of the workmen were much interfered
with.
passenger railroads nmning to this place did a
thriving business. and on tbe cars were large streamers
notifying the public that this was the direct road “to
the Kensington iron-clad frigate.” The work on this
veeeel is progressing rapidly, and her builders feel con*
lidont of having her launuhtd by the first of May. Her
planking is nearly finished, and yesterday the caulkers
were busy at work, and decks .were being put in. Over
four iundrcd men are at the present time employed. The
vessel is a formidable-looking ship without tbe armor,
and Is built with gnat strength. Her sheathing is of
jfl&trt Of fiUlt-MiJ-ti-li&lf.iucli iron, lougneJ and grooved,
which is flow being delivered at tho yard. In about two
weeks’ time, the work of placing on the iron plates will be
commenced. It is evident, while looking m such vessels,
that some new mode bf'attack must be adopted to destroy
them, for they seem proof against any caunon ball yet
used in naval warfare. I'hey cannot bo easily boarded
hot shol has no «-flVct, and all the ordinary modes of cap
ture fail, unless they are attacked by a steam-ram, of
much greater speed to cut through their sides, or guns bo
used of a calibre greater than has ever been constructed
for ship service. This Is tbe problem which has now to
he solved, and which such experience as we have had In
Hampton Krads may help towards a solution. It seems
to be determined, if tbe J lerrimac comes out acaiu, and
the Monitor cannot finish her, that the attempt will be
made by several strong vessels to cut her in two as she
did the Cwtnfrcrfaßd.
The iiniueb«o wlp fleets of England and France ftio
fleets no longer. The fight at Hampton Road3has de
stroyed them Ht one blow. They will do for store-ships,
or to lay in ordinary for receiving ships, but as for war
vessels, their vocation is ended. The only war fleets of
Franco and England are their iron-c-tsed vessels, which
have l»f en R.ade to ItArjje that tli^i l &i&nd too f;4? out oP
water. The British ship M'arrior. which coat 55,000,0a0,
is unmanageable, and, without doubt, a failure, while tho
Kensington frigatt, which will cost our Government
about 8D((>.000, is tar superior, drawing only fifteen feet
of water, and with but little of Tim vegg?| ?XP99?(V
With the money expended on the TTrcrrfor, five or ten
better, smaller, aT.d more effective vessels could be built.
Congress has already seen the uec< ssity of this, and ere
long we shall have a complete iron-cased war fleet.
The affair between the Monitor and the Mcrrimac has
had the edict ol bringing before tho proper authorities
new models end plans of iron-clod vessel*. Among
those recently introduced 1* one to construct a vessel with
a fist bottom, one hundred and fifty feet in length, fifty
feet beam, and eight fe+t depth of hold; sharp bow and
stern, and of very great strength. A heavy and efficient
iron ram is attached to the how, beneath the wator-liuo.
In order tbe better to boa*- ibe concussion which the
battery-would be subjected to when in collision with a
vessel, the wLole bow, below the water’s edse, would be
filled iu with solid timber, braced strongly the whole
length of the battery. This is the arrangement for the
mm. Thu battery would consist of an augular roof of
iliirh in all directions to the plane of the deck,
to be twenty inches in thickness, of heavy oak, and all
covered with iron plates of three inches rn thickness.
The construction of iron-plated vessels is something
new, and sbip-budders generally are of tho opinion that
many important improvements are yet to be made, which,
when adopted, will possess still many more advantages
over the plans now used.
Proceedings op the Methodist
CONFERENCE—SEVENTH HAT —The intense inte
rest of Tuesday was manifested again yesterday, ami the
church was crowded to its utmost capacity with those
who expected to hear a repetition of Tuesday’s debate.
With the exception of the members of the Conference, tho

tion.
The call of the effective elders was then resumed. The
Reading district was gone through with, and the Wil
mington district taken up. This district extends far into
the tiorder States, and the troubles of tse country have
somewhat iutt-f fared with The labors of tbe clergy.
Itev. Mr. Newman askei for a superannuated relation.
The presiding elder stated that Mr. Newman had left his
charge cuiiDg the year, and had commenced the practice
of medicine.
Rev. Mr. Flannery said that if he did leave his charge
it was because be was sfurced out .
Rev. A. Atwood opposed the gruntiug of his request,
lie had, however, the kiudest feelings towards Mr. New*
man He could not understand how a minister could
starve at his station. Ho msiatnd that if the people Bee
that a man is devoted to liia work they will feed him. __
ConsMersWe btiga'icn ttieu woh pinto between 'tbe
Rev. Stephen Townsend mid the Rev. Mr. AtwooJ, which
was stopped by tbe Bishop, who said that if it had any
relation to the subject in debate, “ he had not gumption
enough to see it.”
After some farther debate, the Conference decided to
reftr the c«se buck to presiding elder to investigate the
causes of bia leaving his charge, anti that, in tbe moan*
time, he should be faft without an appointment.
The Easton district was then taken up. The presiding
elder stated that, considering the geography of the dis
trict, it was in a fair condition.
Rev. J. B. A jars taid that he regretted that he felt it
his duty to state that Mr. Quigley was regarded as a
Southern sympathizer.
Rev. 31i. Quigley said that he was ready for any in
vestigation, ai.d to meet any charges against him. His
motto was, the Union, the Constitution, and the Enforce
ment of the Laws.
Rev. William irishop said that he was prepared to re
peat tome ihibkß tlmt 3lr. Quigley had said to him.
Rev. P. vcombe thought this was out of order, and
why was lliis not done according to law 1 AYhy stab
Brother Quigley after he had w-teil “aye ” to one of the
Strongest resolutions that could be written 1
Mr. Quigley said that he was prepared to meet any
flung iliM could tic brought egninat l\im, and the Ann
demeanor of the gentleman seemed to silence his ac
cusers. There was no charge preferred against him.
His character was, therefore, passed.
When the name of Rev. W. Bishop was called, a
charge was brought against him for breach of promise
to marry, and lor misrepresentation*
Rev. Mr McCarter appeared as the gentleman’s coun
sel. He contended that tbe case has already been ad
judicated, and thut Mr. Birfiop had been reprehended by
Ins superior, the presiding elder. He read extracts from
corre-spozidczice between Mr. Bishop and Mr. Quigley in
support ot hiß position. He i end also a letter of the pro*
aiding elder to show that he (the presiding elder) did
not think tbe matt, r ought to be brought before the Con
ference.
The Bisbop said that too much time was being occu
pied in the case.
Mr. Mecasl ey thought we had better stay hero *• till the
fill ILAh tli&t ibjlUl!& shduld be done.”
The Bishop said that “he hoped to escape before that
time.’’ [L aughter.J
Mr. Mecaskey then went on with his argument* and
cited precedents to show that the Conference should not
entertain this charge.
Bev. Mr. Gray appeared on behalf of the complainants.
He wished to ear in reply to Mr. Mecaskey that the case
has not been adjudicated. He cited a letter of Mr.
Bishop Limself, in which he said that the whole proceed
ing of the presiding elder was illegal. He thought that
if the humblest member ol the cliuich was iujured re
dress should be given by the Conference. He .regretted
that allusion had been made to the lady in question,
whose integrity is unimpeachable. He had no disposi
tion to wroDg Mr. Bisbop, but he hoped that the charge
would be entertained.
Tbe Conference decided not to entertain the complaint
by a vote of 95 to 75.
I!«y. Mr, Cuuuiuiiiiain uigvwJ that MnWilmeriamem
ber of Mr. Bishop’s church, be given leave to speak as to
this case. Upon ths representation of many of the clergy,
the gentleman withdrew his motion.
Bev. Mr. Bishop’s character was then passed by the
Conference, the presidium eider doing full justice to his
eloquence and zeal, and stated that these affairs had been
the only drawback, to Lis □sufuluess-
Tbt* list tv as then gone over, aud the characters of the
elders considered and passed. The Easton district being

New Government Hospital. A
new Government Hospital at the corner of Tweuty

It is proper to add that tho supplies of tho Sanitary

Arrival of the Bodies of Soldiers
SLAIN AT BELL RUN. —During -be p»sr, few (lay*
we have hail a great number of military funerals In
town. Tho wounded and diseased who have died in our
Government hospitals, have been almost dally followed to
the grave by corteges of soldiers \ from the battle-field?
of the South And West, we have received the corpses of
ninny slain townsmen, and now, after months of occupa
tion by the rebel army, the Alcedamasof Bull Bun and
Hall’s Bluff have been received, and the mangled bodies
of our country mon disinterred. Yesterday n slow, sad
cortege passed over Chestnnt street—tho remains of some
gallant Rhode Islanders, who had sealed their patriotism
with blood on the uiemortble plains of Manassas.
The remains of Col. John 8. Slocum, Mnj. Sullivan
Ballou, and G&pt. Lavl Towers, ©1 tho Second
of Rhode Island Volunteers, reached the city at 1 o’clock
under the charge of Lieutenant Colonel W. 11. P. feteere,
with a body guaid, consisting of ten men.
A despatch, announcing that the bodies would remain
here for a short tipie, was received from Washington, and
a coumiiltec, consisting of Major Wm. A- Thorp, Major
Wni. A. Delaney, arid Johu M. Malloy, Esq., inode some
hasty Arrangements for an appropriate demonstration on
the occasion.
It was arranged that the bodies should bo laid out in
liifiopondoncu Hall, and Colonol Stanton’s rogiinent of
Pennsylvania Volunteers were invited 19 form the escort*
Quito a crowd gathered about tho Baltimoro depot, but
at tho lime of tho arrival of the traiu tho military had not
reached there. _ _.
Tho coffins containing the bodies wore enclosed m pino
Wes, and iheso wore- -irrl.*.l hi tUfl IIGUMM llg tllft DOUfIO.
Tho hearses were provided bj Mr. Gartland, undertaker.
There was one large one, surmounted by the American
flag, and drawn by (our black horses, and two smaller
odpp, drawn by two horses each.
The police were then formed as an escort, but before
tiie line moved Col. Slauhbifi’d Peglliidiit, with a band of
music, arrived, and took a proper position. Tho proces
sion thou marched up Broad to Chestnut, and thence to
Independence Hall, where the bodies were deposited.
The ball was surrounded by a curious crowd, but en
trance was debarred, as nothing could have boeu seen
but ihvee plain pine boxes covered with the American
flag. A silver plate, shaped like a shield, containing a
suitable inscription, was laid upon each box, and two re
serve cfficirs guarded the remains, shut up in the solemn
silence of Independence Hall, with tbe storied faces of
ge see, patriot and soldier, looking d< wn upou tbemfrom
thaeimviig. The'bady of Major Ballou had baan dia*
fevered of the head, and the body itself burned to ashes.
The rebels bad tins wreaked thrir revenge upon Major
Ballou, mistaking him for Colonel Slocum. The latter
was discovered only by the lobs of one of his teeth and
by the smallness of his feet. Ills place of intormeut was
pointed out by some of ibe ru-»Uca of tho iielgkborlid&l.
The ashes copiously mingled with clay, are now enclosed
in metallic cuffii s, enclosed in turn by frame boxes.
Last evening at 11 o’clock, Governor Sprague arrived in
town and proceeded immediately to Independence
CbumbtT! lvlif re lie spent n <inteti wntemptoMr* in
the companionship of the dead Tho mnskots of the
guard presented to them by the Governor were stacked
in a corner of the room, aud their canteens and knap
sacks littered the floor. The bodies will leave this morn
ing and arrive in Providence on Friday, where they will
he received by citizens aud military.
Tiie Philadelphia Charitt Hos-
PITAL.—The Medical Board of tbo Charity Hospital,
Buttonwood street, below Broad, report thskt during the
last year 3,600 persons have been relieved and many other
persons have been attended at fclieli 1 HdfiS&l, df tdlK
Every form of disease has been treated In the surgical
and lying-in departments there has been a large ii crease
of cases, and aid is asked, especially for those depart
ments.
The board think that enlarged facilities arc greatly
noudid to moot tho daily iiiGroaiinsapplications for modi,
cal aid in tho various departments of tbo hospital; but
such improvements as even our limited means would jus
tify, could hr.rdly be ventured upon so long as we do n ,>t
hold permanent possession of the premises (which are the
properties of tho city.) We must remind you, therefore,
that as ibe possession continues billy by consent of Coun
cils. and that we are liable to removal at iheir will, it be
comes us to use our most strenuous efforts, without de
lay, to secure to ourselves a place whoreou to erect such
buildings as are suited to our wants.
The establishment of a permanent fund is also a matter
of vital importance to the interests of the hospital, as its
continued prosperity, and ultimate greatness, depend
upon tbe early possession of a revenue from some fixed
and unfailing source.
This hospital is one of the most useful institutions of
this character iu the city, :in«l it i.s to be hoped that its
menus will be bo increased as that its sphere of useful*
ness will be greatly enlarged.
Philadelphians Taken Prisoner.—
AmoDg the prisoners recently taken by the ivbt-la were
two young men, captured about one mile from tho
Evan sport batteries on tho lower Potomac. Tho name
of one of the parties is William T. Baum, a yoaug Phila
delphian, who at the time of his capture held the position
of ordnance officer on General Hooker's staff. Previous
to that appointment he was lieutenant in Colonel Win. F.
Small’s regiment of this city. While attached to the re
giment, he eecured the confidence of his fellow-officers
and The good will of tbe eiitire regiment. A tew months
ago, he was detailed by Colonel Small for recruiting ser
vice in this city, and the manner in which ho performed
his duties won for him the lasting friendship of the Colo
nel. His soldierly conduct and excellent address soon
attracted the attention of tbo commanding genera', who
immediately promoted him 10 a position on his own stxff.
He resided in Third Btree*, near Spruce, aud although
quite young, he had a host of friends, who will look with
anxiety for bis speedy release.
Expenditures on City Sewers and
CULVERTS.—The balance of Culvert Loan, created to
build the four great arterial sewers of the city—Cohock
eink, Twenty-fourth street, Vine street, and Moore street
—has been disbursed. These, with several others, were
completed during 1660, leaving an unexpended balance
of tbe loan, at the Logstmlog vf the year, Amounting to
gd.1,354.80, with which there have'baen completed:
The Montgomery and Ninth-streot, at a cost 0f59,75S 44
Changes of Fifth and Parrish streets 1,596 45
The result has been that but 6,548 feat of branch
sewers have been constructed during 1861,1,355 feet of
which have been at private expense.
The Ninety-Day Law.—Anotlior
commitment under the late act empowering the Mayor
of Pld)ad£l&hla imprison for ninsfp days any pe..fAfl
sional pickpocket found in a public place, or iu a crowd
of people, took place yesterday. Edward Byers aud
Pnddy Ridings, alias Henry Bavis, were arrested under
suspicious circumstances at tbe Trenton Railroad depot
on Monday night. Yesterday they had a hcariug be
fore there being nearly a arizen
pen oils present who testified that the prisoners woro
pickpocket*, they were sent below till the warm weather
comes. Byers convicted himselt by stating that just pre
vious to bis arrest he had said to L avis that they had

Freight Blockade.— For the first
time in several months, the Pennsylvania Central Bail •
road is now able to take tidily ail the freight that ia
offered, and will be able, with her increased facilities, to
anticipate the heavy business iikeiy to foiinw. The em
bargo upon freight, during the past few months, was the
cause of some feeling in our mercantile community.
This has been removed, and there will now he no cause
for complaint. The capacity of the Pennsylvania Cen
tral is greater than any other road in the country, aud it
proves loilimfite for our country that this great trunk
line was far enough removed from rebel soil to be safely
worked, in transporting, at a critical moment, tens of
thousands of soldiers, aad immense stores of munitions
of war.
Good News—We ave happy to an
mmuce to our readers this moruiug, that the streets of
the city of Philadelphia, so noted years ago for its cleanli
ness, are at length to be cleanstd. The good work will
be commenced to* morrow, when an effort will be made
to find the cobble stones with which our streets are sup
to kv payed. For tins the public are indebted tq
the Board of Health. Some time sluce a communication
was received in Councils from the residents of a certain
small street In the lower section of the city, asking
whether permission would be given them to raise potatoes
in said street, it being in a splendid condition for the
production of vegetables.
Improvements.—ln different-portions
of the city, the work of constructing dwelling-houses,
&c.. has already been commenced. In the Fifteenth nod
Nineteenth wards extensive improvements are about being
made; while in the Sixteenth and Seventeenth wards a
number of new dwellings have been commenced. No less
than eighty-two new dwellings have been contracted for,
to be built upon the square bounded by Eighteenth,
Nineteenth, Buttonwood, and Spring Garden streets. In
the Nineteenth ward, (the old district of Richmond,) one
hundred dwellings, suitable for families oflimited means,
are about to be constructed.
Bobbery of a Colored Man.— A
colored man, hailing from New Jersey, fell in with a
party of young gentlemen, on Tuesday night, who Invited
him to accoiiumw them to a house in the lower ponton
of the city. Bo accompanied them, and yesterday morn
ing found himself minus some seventy- five dollars. Two
of the precocious youths were arrested, and had a hear
ing before Alderman Balias, who committed them to
answer. They gave tlieir names as Thomas Winslow
and John Dallas, and upon the person of the latter Bomo
twenty dollars of the stolen money was found.
Windmill Island.—The lower por
ticn of Windmill Island, more commonly known ai
Smith’s lelnml and Point Airy, has been sold to Mr.
Robert J. Mercer. The property contains a large wharf
frontage, with great depth of water, and is susceptible
of important improvement. Wo understand that it is
the intention of the purchaser to expend upon it a large
6um, and make it an important depot for the loading and
discharging of cargoes, thus largely benefiting the trade
Of the cit;,
Effect of Lent upon Amusements.
—The theatrical managers complain that their receipts
h ive fdlcn off since the beginning of Lent. Good Catho
lics are tko best patroiiß of legitimate amusements, and
these abstain from extraordinary pleasures during the
season of Lent. The Episcopal element is also miisiug
from the theatres. The Continental Thoatre and the
Arch-street Theatre have new pieces to produce, but
they wisely postpone their production until the con
sciences of folks will insure success and good audiences.
Fatal Result.— lsaac Kinzcr, a flour
merchant, doing business at the corner of Broad and
Vine streets, died at his residence in Spring Garden
street, abovo Twelfth, on Tuesday night, from injuries
inflicted upon his throat and arm, whilo laboring under a
temporary fit of iasanity. The rash act %vaa committed
upon tho second floor of his store, and to fully accom
plish his eDd be took a largo dose of laudanum.
Disorderly House.—Yesterday a
Miss Jones was committed by Alderman Boitler, to an
ewer the charge of heeling a disorderly house at No, Old
Beach street, near Brown. A witness testified that a
great deal of dancing was had m Miss Jones* house, and
that the cry of murder was frequently hoard there.
Street Fight.—Two men, named
Michael Brady and Patrick Bradly,got into a fightabout
three o’clock yesterday morning at Eighth and Bedford
streets. Billies were used, and one of the combatants
had his head pretty sevorely cut. Both were arrested and
committed by Alderman Dallas.
Street Parade.—The One-hundred
and-ninth Begiiufut 1\ V., Col. H. J. Steiurook, made
quite a creditable parade through some of our principal
ftreete yesterday morning. They were accompanied by
a fine band of music, but were without arms.
Another Man.—The Rev. S. Town
send who objected to voting in favor of the majority re
port at the Methodist Conference on Monday, was net
Rev. Stephen Townsend, but Bev. Sylvanus Townßond.
T here aro three 8. Townsends in the Philadelphia Con
ference.
Cotton from Europe.—The ship
iresfmweltmtZ, which is now being discharged at Pine-
Birofct wharf, has on. board a quantity of cotton, Bhipped
from Liverpool for tills maikec, This is a very rare cir
cumstance.
A correspondent writing from Norristown, says:
We have achieved a great Union victory in our
town, us your readers will perceive by the follow
ing facts: That Norristown gave 387 majority for
Henry D. Foster, Democratic candidate for Go
vernor in 1860.
That Dr. E. L. Acker, editor of Norristown
Register* and a rampant Breckinridge Democrat,
is beaten by the lowest opposing candidate for
school direotor 217 votes. That the lioket on which
he ran was called Democratic, nominated as such,
and supported as such by Register and the
Defender , (the latter the Bell-Everett organ), who
called upon the citizens to Sustain it as such ia
order to put down the black Republicans who .were
in the way of restoring the Union to a 'peaceful
settlement or adjustment That nl though promluent
Douglas men and sound Union men, such as
George W. Rogers and A. B. Longaker. the latter
formerly a Speaker of the House of Representa
tives. were placed upon the tioket to redeem it
from its odious character and save it from defeat,
every one even of them were badly beaten, the
former by 178 majority, and the latter by 134. I.

It would bo like tbu rest* 1 felt reluctant about trying it,
hut a few days after 1 aaw a certificate in The Prest, a,
daily paper of a cure of a chronic case ho had made
upon a minister of the M. E. Church, 1633 HELMUTS
Street; and 1 went to seo him, and after examination he
said he could cure me. 1 submitted myself to his treat
tuent, and the effect waa aetoniahiug • no shocks, (such
as I expected*) but all was pleasant and agreeable, and
after the fourth application I felt better than I had for
some time* and in the fifth application I was perfectly
cured, the whole occupying not quite two weeks Ido
heartily recommend any person similarly afflicted, and
believing if any person who has any acute orchronio
affliction would call and see Professor GOLLES & GO.,
Electrical Physicians. 1220 WALNUT Street, he would
get rolieved of his suffering by their treatment.

QLUTEN CAPSULES
PUKE COD-LIVER OIU.
The repugnance of most patients to COD-LIVEB
OIL, and the inability of many to take it at all, has in
duced various forma ’of disguise for its administration
that are familiar to the Medical Froferniooi Some of
them answer in special cases, but more often
neutralizes the usual effect of the Oil, proving quite as
unpalatable and of less therapeutic value. The repug
nance, nausea, Ac., to invalids, induced by disgust df the
Oil, is entirely obviated by the use of our CAPSULES.
OOjD-LIYEB OIL CAPSULES have been much need
lately In Europe, the experience there of the goodSre;
suits from their use in both hospital mid private practice,
aside from the naturally suggested advantages, are suf
ficient to warrant our claiming the virtues we do for
them, feeling assured their use will result in bonefit and
deserved favor. Prepared by
