The presentment of the Quarter Sessions Grand Jury
for the ensuing term is more than ordinarily individual
and interesting. The presentment was made before
Judge Allison. We print the presentment in full:
To the Honorable the Judge of the Court of Oyer and
Terminer and Quarter Sessions of (he Peace for the
city and, county of Philadelphia:
The Grand IminMt of the Commonwealth of Penn
sylvania, inquiring for the c l ty aud county of Philadel
phia. respectfully present that they have concluded tlioir
labors for the February sewion, 1562 ; that they have,
-during said aeaaioa. actyd upon six hundred and twenty
eeven bills, of which they have returned four hundred
and ninety-live as true bills, and ignored one hundred
aud thirty.four.
DIMINISH MKNT OP CHIMBS,
The Grand Inquest are gratified \9 cV§7IYS tbilt tU&
number of cranes has much diminished, And that very
few crimes of a higher grado have beeu brought to their
notice. A careful examination of the calendar will show,
in an extraordinary degree, the peace and good order in
our city.
VOLUNTEER REFRESHMENT SALOONS.
The Grand Inquest, in connection with this subject,
deem it but jusli je to those having charge of the Volun
teer Refreshment Saloons to state that, iu their opinion,
the peace of the city is preserve* and tendencies to disor
ders are checked by the admirable arrangements which
they have mndt* for the feeding and comfort of the largo
number 6f fuddfeiu who have and are pawing ihr/mahoui!
city. The comforts so well provided keep the troops to
gether and prevent uneasiness of the public mind that
would otherwise necessarily exist whenever large bodies
of men are suddenly thrown into our midst, and who, for
the time, are freed from the restraints of military disci
pline. So admirable, in theopinion of tlio Grand Inquest,
art the peace mid good order »f tho city preserved, and He
eafoare all the rights of person and property, owing to the
excellent police arrangements of our city, that wo fool it
our duty to call public attention to this subject, anil to
express our commendation of that excellent public spirit
and devotion to the public good which, emanating from
the Mayor, to give eUftiastor to the
whole department.
COUNTY PRISON,
In performance of their duty, the Grand Inquest visited
the County Prison and found it in good order, with every
care and comfort bestowed upon the prisoners that the
convenience of the building would permit * but they have
observed, and they present, that the south wiug of the
building Is entirely toe small for the large number of per
sons confined there. Untried prisoners and vagrants are
brought in here often in very filthy cone ition, and, being
necessarily crowded together, rentier the cells too small
and unfit for hnmnnheinsß to be confined in. ImmtdiatA
zneaures should be taken to better ventilate this wing
and to enlarge its capacity. There are confined within
the convict department of the County Prison seven per
sona who are believed to be incurably insane It is es
sentia! to thopuhlic good that these persons should be re
strained, but the County Prison is not the legal nr proper
place For their custody. There S* no place for them ia
the Almshouse, for that is for the insane po~r. It would
be extravagant for an? crusty in the State to erect
buildings and prov de proper accommodations for them,
as the number of such persons is so few in each comity.
The Grand Inquest are of the opinion that thero should
be an asylum provided bv tbe State for all such insane
prisoners within ite borders,
ALMSHOUSE.
The Grand Inquest visited the Almshouse and found it
in excellent order, exhibiting perfect fidelity to the pub
lic and economy in its management. The insane de
partment contains £6l patients, and humanity and true
economy require that means should be provided with the
view of OUtibg its i&lii&tos Os well as the safe custody- of
their persons. It will be found cheaper to cure ten in
sane persona whose average residei ce is a few months,
than to keep one his lifetime. Early and judicious treat
ment will keep t)io number down. Provision for the in
sane does not increase their number; it only very pro
perly aggregates them. Facility for curative treatment
is the great want iu the insane department o£ the Alms
house. Medicine, employment, exercise, government,
and restraint, are the iue*ua to be used. There is a sad
deficiency in the facilities for the employment of lb 9 pa
tients. Th* re is not room for ont-door exorcise, nor
grounds sufficient to induce the patients to take exor
cise In the op£b Air j the wards are too condaed and the
yards too limited.
The buildings now used for the insane poor could be
well used for a house of correction for vagrants aud of
fenders, and, if new ’•uildinga are to be erected, we say
that the cause «f humanity and public economy aliko re
quire that so large a number of the insane poor should
have buildings erected adapted to their curative treat
ment, and a location where they can have plenty of pure
air, sunlight, and room.
HOUSE OP REFUGE AND PENITENTIARY,
The Grand Inquest visited the House of Refuge. From
their observation of the Inmatcß and the present appear
ance of the place, they were not favorably impressed with
its general superintendence.
The Grand luquest also visited the Kas'ern Peniten
tiary, aiid were pleased to find the institution conducted
In such a manner that it well deserves the public confi
dence that is reposed in itstnanagement.
DOCK'ATENUE MARKET.
The Grand Inquest calls the attention of the court to a
building erected over the highway in Water street, above
Spruce street. The market company there has erected,
over and across the street, a building which shuts out the
light and air. It is an infringement on public rights.
The Grand Inquest presents it as a public nuisance.
« HOPING n RAILROAD OARS.
The Grand Inquest also reprobates the practice now in
use of “roping” railroad cars over the footways into the
coal yards and freight depots in the city. Tho horses
being rapidly driven along the street parallel with the
footway, the cats are suddenly Mid driYOU 601033
the footway, without notice and without exciting the at
tention of the people pawing along. This practice has
resulted in the loss of life. It should be repressed by
legal enactment.
ILLEGAL ARMY VOTING.
Tb® Grand Ir»qu**«t have returned a true bill against a
defendant for illegal voting for city and county ofiteAra of
Philadelphia, at a camp in the State of Maryland. Im
pressed with the impnitaiice of the subject, they pursued
their inquiries until they became convinced that exten
sive frauds, of a highly criminal and dangerous charac
ter, had been perpetrated against the purity ot the ballot
box.
Tli& 4-vji.let-co submitted to them revealed facts of so
startling a character that they cannot forbear especially
alluding to some of them.
At one election poll, held in a camp in the State of
Maryland, one hundred and five persons wore returned
os votes in a company which consisted only of eighty
three tteiuhtrs.
In another, sixteen minors, under the nge of twenty
one years, were allowed to vote without objection, and
in other companies alt the wholesome checks and re
straints of law were thrown aside, aud votes received
from all persons whatever who chose to present them
selves to vote.
So rectlPßelf mid go criminally was the election con.
ducted In the camps that the election officers seemed to
bft?e evinced ft perfect diarega d of the importance or
the sanctity of the duties they undertook to perform.
The Grand Inquest has received conclusive evidence
that upwards of four hundred and forty persons in three
regiments alone were allowed to vote who did not belong
or were not attached to the company at whose polls they
voted.
Upwards of sixty minors under the age of twenty-one
years were allowed to vote, and whole companies of men,
of whon a large portion were unnaturalized foreigners,
voted to a man; the officers who conducted tho election
saying that, in their judgment, every one had a right to
vote who fought under the stars and stripe3 t notwith
standing they lacked nil the constitutional quatiScaMons
of voters. Returns of elections thus held were taken and
carried into the returns, to affect the popular will, as ex
pressed by the honest and constitutionally qualified
voters of our city. Not only were abuses of this cha
racter shamelessly enacted in the camps, but wicked and
Signing men, either in or oat of cnaipa, prepared and
forwarded returns of elections in companies that never
were held, and strove to defeat the will of tl e people, and
control tho mnncipal government of our city by forge
ries or election returns, and frauds of the most base and
infamous character.
The Grand Inquest are fearful that the law is powerless
to prevent thtee or to reach and pnnish the of
fenders. The constituted authorities of onr city have
offered a reward of one thousand dollars for such in
formation as will lead to the detection and puuishxneut of
these offenders, but-, an yet, no information has been re
ceived of o character sufficient to base a criminal prose
cution upon.
The Grand Inquest, in view of these practices, are so
well satisfied of the impossibility of conducting elections
among soldiers in camp with fairness and impartiality,
that th*7 are forced to call public attention to the law
providing for each elections as fraught with danger to the
best interests of toe citizens, and highly injurious to pub •
lie liberty.
The elective franchise is too sacred a right, aud its es
tablishment cost our fathers too much to be thus dis
graced and violate!*, and the best interests of society, in
the deliberate opinion of the Grand Inquest, require that
this law, permitting elections in camps, far away from
the supervision and participation of the citizens, should
be erased from the statute book.
REMARKS OP JUDGE ALLISON.
Judge AHieon refeindiu detail to the various sugges
tions made by tho Grand Jury, aud eulogized the exer
tions of the committee iu charge of the Refreshment
Saloons. In relation to that part of the presentment
which wa» devoted to the law allowing volunteers to vote,
he eaidi
You ref* r, gentlemen, to a bill of indictment found
against a defendant for illegal voting at the last general
election for city and county officers, at a camp in tha State
of Maryland. That hill has boon disposed of, so far as
this Court is concerned, by a judgment sustamix.g the <le
murrer which was filed by the defendant* fer tile cause
assigned—namely, that the law under which the voluu
teer soldiers claimed to exercise the elective franchise, at
the October ejection, in camp, in the States of Virginia
and Maryland, was in direct conflict with section first of
the third article of the Constitution of this Common
wealth, which provides that every white qf foe
age of twenty, one years, having resided in this State one
year, and m the election district, where ho offers to vote,
ten days immediately preceding such election, and, with
in two years, paid a State or county tax, which shall have
been assessed At least ten days before tho election, shall
enjoy the rights of an elector. The claiuo of the section
which a residence of ten days in the election dis
trict in which the elector offers to vote , immediately pre
ceding the election, a pre-roquirite to the enjoyment of
the rights of an elector, is so clear, so free from anibigui
tj, that I do not see how a fair and reasonable doubt can j
be entertained upon the question. The legal residence
of the soldier remains unchanged by thefactof hi* having
left the place of his domicile or his election district for
the purpose of fighting the battles of his country. If
therefore, he votes in an election district in which he
never had a residence, or in no election district at ail,
bow can it be pretended that this requirement of the
Constitution is io any sense satisfied 7
It will sot do to baj that bin vote is recorded and
counted iu his proper election district; for the funda
mental law of the land, which is superior to all mere stu
tntory law, makes no mention of, and has no reference
to the purely ministerial acts of election officers, whose
duty it is, under the law, to send the vote, aftpr it hal
town received, to tho residence of tho voter, td bo there
enumerated; but it requires that the offer to vote by the
elector shall he in the election district iu which he has
resided ten days immediately preceding the election, so
that it follows a» a necessary consequence that if the
offer by the elector to vote cannot he madt iu his proper
district he does not meet this *§imrttal requirement Of tllQ
Constitution, and that the law which undertakes to (lid*
pens© with It is null and void. As well might the Legis
lature undertake to dispense tho qualification of color,
with the term of residence in the State, or with tho pay
ment of a State or county tax, and the time of its
ment. The importance of this qualification iaovideut from
the fact that it is insisted upon in each modulation of the
general right to vole. A qualified voter of this State
who removes therefrom may, upon his return, vote af- i
ter six months’ residence, h&vite? resided ,?i the election j
district, and paid taxes as aforesaid. So, also, in the I
proviso to section first of article three} citizens between
the ages of twenty-one and twenty-two years, having j
resided in the State one year, and in the eh’.r.linn dix- t
irict ten days, aa aforesaid, shall be entitled to vole, »1- j
though they thull not have paid taxes
The in passing the act of IR'V), t.-,
have overlooked the fact that, in this respect, it am«*iul*l .
-the C'unaMuUon of 1899, and differed entirety front tho j
Constitution of 1790. Nothing of the kind existed in the 1
Constitution of 1790: and this law* when first enacted, if !
restricted in Its application to the Stateof Pennsylvania, j
was, therefore, undoubtedly constitutional. But in the j
revision or codification of the election laws iu 18£y, when
h-e law vlilvli w tin frtnnd tipOn thestfttUtA-boAk ~ le
gitimate and valid law under the Constitution ul 1790 .
was re-enacted, it was passed in ignorance or in dial egard
or the vital change wliich tho new Constitution inauga- ;
rated In tbe qualifications of electors, and cannot, there- '
fore, be held In hi l - u valid and binding law. ;
1 have thu* briefly stated several of tho reasons which ;
•led me to the conclusion which I have already announced ;
•to you, in disposing of the bill to which you refer in ?o*ir ;
•presentment; it is but due to the Grand Jury that I
uhonld say thus much in reply to a question made by
these, hut there are other good and weighty reasons
tpliirh might be oasisued in support of tte judijmeiit of
the Court, but which it is unnecessary to specify at this
line.
In relation to the general subject of illegal voting in
the campy, and of the extent to which frauds were per
petrated, as proved before yon, it all accords with the
fecU, which have already become a part of the judicial
history of onr fetate. Your investigations have wocea
parilv been of the most restricted character; the few
witness*s whom you have found within the jurisdiction
of the court, and subject to its subpoena, have furnished
vou with proof which reveals in part only the enormity
of the crimes perpetrated under the pretence of h ,ld
}fP sn si Potion in tho camps of ttoroHrataen <mt«
jsiaV a the Stab of PemsylTania. These facts show
what a mere farce the form of the election was, to how
grtat an extent the laws wer* disregarded, officers
and nun, iu many inwtauens, prostitutiug them«dvoi
to the base purpose of defrauding tho legal voters of
the Slate out of their fair and legitimate thus
depriving nieu duly elected of tbs hODorg and profits
of officer and the citizens of their chosen representa
tives, in the various departments of Government It
is a matter of surprise, geuilemen, that the Legisla
ture now in session has takeu no step looking to the
repeal of the law under which these elections were held
—a law to productive of crime, so subversive of righ<
and jnafcicA, so dangflfaiu !& jk* ps&M ot ths community,
so unequal in Us operation, and. to my mind, so clearly
violative of the Constitution of our State and at tho ad
vanced period of their session ; with no beginning, even
made towards wi ping this blot from the statute book, little
is to be hoped for in that direction. There i# but one
remedy for this evil left to us, and that is to obtain a
speedy judicial determination of ihn question, that shall
bo final. Ia the law of July 2, 1869, within or without
the pale of the Constitution ’ if the former, then we can
only wait for legislative relief, however long it may ho
before it reaches us; but if the latter, we may congratu
late ourselves and the community that there can be no.
repetition of the enormities of October last—that dospe
raie and abandoned men ehalt not again be allowed to
perpetrate wholesale frauds against which honest voters
cannot protect themselves, and then bring the result of
their crimes to taint the very atmosphere of j ustice in her
most sacred temples.
The Gra*.d Jury were then discharged.
Tile First-Waud Explosion.—The
survivors of the late terrible disaster in the First ward,
who are at the hospital, were alt getting along comforta
bly yesterday. There is quite an improvement in tho
condition of all. although a number of them are yet Vy
no means out of danger. Miss Ann McKarnan and Misi
Isabella Felocey have so far recovered as to be conveyed
to their homes. Many of the families of these unfortu
nates are in a destitute condition, aud are true objects of
charity. A committee, composed of A. N. Macpneraou,
of Merrick’s foundry, aud others, have collected, by sub
scription, the sum of Bs&P,7s iu aid of the sufferers. Iu
addition to this, nearly S2UO were subscribed for the same
worthy object through the medium of the Evening Bul
letin. These sums, although large, are not sufficient to
afford relief to any great extent, the snfferera being so
numerous. A portiou of the funds have been placed iu
the bandß of Fire Marshal 'Blackburn, who passes a large
portiou of his time iu hunting up and reliving the
wounded.
Among other cases of sympathy related by the Fire
Marshal is that of a little boy named John Yeager, aged
14 years, residing with a widowed mother, in Earp street,
above Eighth. The mother, who is fast sinking with the
consumptioni was obliged to send her son to work at
ftkdfcotJL Ai the tlmo of the explosion lie hod
both eyes shot out, received a terrible wound in the
stomach, and had one of his bauds blown ofT. He was
conveyed to bis home, whote he has siuce remained in
au insensible condition. The little fellow was still living
ou Saturday, but the physician in attendance says tie
most certainly] will din, and his living bo long in more
than can be accounted for. A younger sister of this un
fortunate lad was also badly burned, but she is not
thought to be dangerous. This family should receive
he speedy attention of some of our benevolent citizens.
It seems that the enti-® business of Jackson's factory
conducted by bis non Edwin, who was instantly
killed by the explosion—thns enttiog off the only source
of obtaining the precise amount of powder in the estab
lishment at the time of the occurrence. Mr. Jackson,
whose testimony has been published iu full, professed
entire iguorance in regard to this point, having, as he
enye, not yet fully completed all outside arrangement^
Which, deterred him from turning: his attention to other
matters of more importance. He, after finishing the
present contract, intended to remove the wholr business
to Chester, where a building hud already been leased.
It teems in the evidence, however, that a larger quantity
of powder than the law allows was permitted to remain
in this establishment, built within the limits of
the corporate city,. at one time, Several years
since, tho legislature of the State caastod a law for bid
ing the storms, or carrying through the streets of the
city, of gunpowder in sufficient quantities to be danger
ous to the lives and property of Citizens. Persons were
allowed to have two pounds of the dangerous material on
hand at one time, and by procuring a ‘‘license 1 ’ aud
putting up a conspicuous sign announcing the fact,
twenty-five pounds could be aton*d in one piaco and at
one time. But this whs tho maximum amount that the
law allowed to be stored at one place, or to be trans
ported through thecity. The legal penally foraniufrac
tiou of this law is a fine of $5OO, which goes to the Asm
ciation for the Relief of Disabled Firemen, ami a forfei
ture of th© powder. It 2s st pretty notorious fact that
this law is constantly defied, and that powder, iu quan
tities far exceeding those allowed by statute, are trans
ported through the streets and stored in the warehouses
and manufactories. The difficulty of giviug this law
practical effect is well understood ; but within a very f© w
dare the consequences of allowing it to pass unheeded
have been demon-trnted by n terrible lesson.
Naval Matters. —On Saturday
morning, about cloven o’clock, the United States trans
port Rhode Island* Lieut. Commanding Stephen D.
Trepchurd, kft the navy yard with provisions and letters
for the blockading squadron in the Gulf of Mexico.
The United Statessteamer Bienville, Commander Chas.
Stecdmac, which arrived at our navy yard on Friday
evening,brought to this city the romaius of Lieut. T. A.
Build and Acting Master L. W. Mather, who were killed
at Mosquito Inlet en the 23d of lustmonth. Liont. Budd
wa© a descendant of a large and respectable family of
Mow Jersey, hut was a native of New York, and was ap
pointed to the navy from that State at the age of fourteen.
He accompanied Commodore Wilkes in his exploring
expedition around the world, and, subsequently,
with the consent of the Navy Department, commanded
tho steamer California* pljirgbetween Panama and San
Francisco. He resigned his commission in 1354, bat at
the onlhrtmk of llie iebollion he re* untiled the navy.
Acting Master Mather belonged to Connecticut, and pre
vious to tho war was a captain in the mercantile marine.
The friends of the deceased in this city bad made ar
rangements tor the proper reception of the remains, and
were greatly facilitated by Capt. Turner, commander of
the yard, und Lieut. Rolando. When tbe Bienville ar
rived, ex-officer Pennell, of tho Uuitod States transport
Rhode Island, sent a boat, in charge of Lieut. Rich
mond and a crew, containing a number of the frionds and
relatives of tho deceased heroes to the Bienville, where
th y were received by ex officer Lieut. Denham, U. S.
N., who had received the bodies from Commodore Du
pont, at gt, Austin?, Florida, The caws wntaining
the bodies were wrapped In the American flag, and were
rowed ashore, where a procession, composed of soma ef
the naval officers oh duty here, and about one hundred
sailors and marines, escorted them to the exit gate of the
nAvy yard. The romaius of Mr. Mather were taken to
Lynn, Connecticut, on Friday night, and those of Lieut.
Budd left for Buffalo on Saturday morning. The Lieute
nant formerly resided in Buffalo, and the authorities
have made arrangements for a public funeral.
Charged with Obtaining Money
UNDER FALSE PRETENCES.—On Saturday, iu th©
Court of Quarter Sessions, an officer in a volunteer regU
meet, now in service, applied to be dismissed from a
charge of obtaining money under false pretences. The
man who preferred the charge had purchased from the
defendant bis pay-roll of the company. The prosecutor
elated the facts, from which it appeared that he had a te
nant who could not pay his rent—this was in December
last—he was the lieutenant in a heavy artillery company,
stationed at Camden, New Jersey; he offered to sell the
pay-roll, oa he desired to get some money. The prose
cutor finally bought thu pay-roll, and gave him $227 for
it. Beiore be bought the ptiy-rolHiP ascertained that it
was good; when ho went to draw tha money, he found
that the lieutenant had made out another roll, on which
he get th© money.
Il was suggested by Mr, Mann that the Government
had not been %heatcd by the transaction. The prosecu
tor alone was the loser.
Mr. Earle, the counsel for the prosecutor, made appli
cation to hold the defendant for conspiracy to cheat and
defraud, by forging the name of the lieutenant oqfonel of
the regiment*
Mr. Bonham suggested that Mr. Earle change his tac
tics. First, we have forge* y ; this is set aside. Secondly,
cheating Ibe United States Government: this is set aside.
Now he sets up conspiracy, wliich he alleges was com
mitted in Washington. Can this last charge be sus
tained here 1
Jude Allison replied that if the conspiracy wag en
tered into here, thru the charge may beentortained.
Mr. Earle said his witnesses wert absent, ani he would
have them here at any time the judge might name.
The court fixed Saturday two weeks ior a farther
hearing.
Dishonest Bookkeeper.—Larceny
OF $6,000. —On Saturday a man far advanced in life,
and who is very respectably connected in this city, was
before Alderman Boitl&r on the charge of defrauding his
employers out of about 96,000 within the past two years.
He bad been employed for some years iu au estebSiYC
mercantile house ou Delaware avenue, in the capacity ot
bookkeeper, aud also had the haudliug of considerable
sums of money, lie was looked upon by his employers
as a m&uiu every way worthy of the confidence reposed
iu him, aud his advanced age aud position Iu society
made him appear far aiove suspicion, although the firm
had lost, at different times, euros of money iu a manner
that could sever be accounted for. At length a watch
was set, and sufficient evidence was procured to lead to
the be’ief that the money had been purloined by tho
bookkeeper, and accordingly he was arrested, taken be
fore the alderman, aud is now awaiting a trial before
court.
Bis mode of procedure was rather novel. When a
customer would pay his bill—Fay $l50 —he would enter
the correct amount upon the ledger, but in entering it
upon the cash-book he would drop the figure “1,” aud
enter the amount as cash $5O, reserving the one hundred
for his own use. He generally chose small sums to work
upoD, as the chancescf detection were less than if he had
taken larger ftniountb; but in the space of tiro years ha
had managed to purloin the sum mentioned above.
The Shad Fisheries. —The supply
of shad for the present season is principally derived from
the Delaware fisheries, all of which are in active opera
tion. Tho SuFijuphanna shad aro few and late in coming
to market. Anew dam has been erected at Columbia,
which materially interferes with the tabors of the fisher
men, as it prohibits the passage ef shad up the stream.
Meetings have been held in portions of Lancaster county,
and the followiug resolution adopted, viz: That the sup
plement to the charter of the Susquehanna Canal Com
pany, authorising the construction of a dam at Colum
bia, expressly provides that the some shall not impede
the ascent of fish, and requires such dam to be of a given
height, and sloped “so as to promote the passage ,of
fish;” a subsequent enactment of the Legislature, fur
ther provides for the construction of said dam so as “to
promote the pnasiigti of fish*” Any dam constructed in
a m$ nner essentially different from that authorized by
law, and placed in the Susquehanna river, would, iu our
opinion, constitute a nuisoDce, and as this dam iB noto
riously constructed, as you st&to to u», in violation of the
terms and provisions of the chatter of the company, aud
the several acts of the Assembly relating thereto, such
dam is a common nuisance. Ihe company cannot plead
& legislative license, for the license does not authorize
such a dam as they have constructed, but a structure of
u different character, preserving the valuable common
rights of navigation and fishing. Ntr can the company
avail themselves of any advantage from the lapse of time,
forthermistmeecontinue?, and no one can acquire tho
right to maintain a public nuisance, and tho length of
time the same exists only aggravates the offence.
Can a Man Enlist on Sunday I —On
Saturday an interesting case was brought beforo Judge
AIIIS6H, of the Court of Quarter Seasious* in regard to
the onlUtnu nt of a shoemaker, Lamed Joseph Gary, who
ktpt a store near Nineteenth and UallowhiU streets. His
discharge was asked for on the ground that he enlisted
on Sunday, and* therefore, the contract is not binding.
The investigation of this case developed tho following
interesting particulars* On & certain Saturday, uot long
since, bis wife’s sister buried a child. The recruit aud
wife attended the funeral, but they were put into the last
carriage in the train. Mr. Gary got mad at such treat
ment, sprang out of the carriage, went away and got
drunk, and on the foil swing Sunday morning went to
thg camp of Colonel Frißmmh’R regiment and was an*
listed; the captain, remarking that it was Smriay, told
him that be bad better come tho next day. Gary was
sober at the time; he looked os if he bad been drunk the
night or day before, but insisted on the enlistment. The
counsel for the rotator also set up the plea of iusanity
l>om strong drink. Thejudiz&efct this Aside. The point
rniped, ns to the validity of the enlistment made on Sun
day, he would carefully scrutinize the authorities, and
give bis decision on next Saturday.

Surgeon General Finley.—Sur
geon General Clement A. Finley, who has been removed
from the head of the Medical Department of tho army
and sent to Fort Warren, has been on the m«lical stafr
upwards of forty-three yearS| having boon appointed
aiirgeeu’fi mate in the First Infantry, August loth, 1848.
His commistfiou as surgeou general, with the rank of
colonel, a rank which be obtained by seniority on the
death of Brevet Brigadier General Thomas Lawson, dates
from May 15tli, 1861. Doctor Robert C. Wood, who is at
present acting surgron general,.was appointed assistant
Miigvofi dfi the 29ffi of Huy, 19'20* wad bos held lus

SPECIAL MEETING OF COUNCILS
Protest Against tbe Pasaage of & “ Street
Cleansing' • Bill by the Legislature—The
Accident in Independence Square,
A special meeting of both branches of Councils was
held on Saturday afternoon, in take some action upm
certain act* now pending before the Legislature.
• SELECT BBaNCH
was called to order at a quarter before 4 o’clock by-Pre-
B l<W flnvlcr. - '
The call for the meeting was read. 'lt requests a meet
ing to consider the bill for the cleansing ot th© streets,
now before tL-e Legislature, and other legislation per
taining to the city.
Mr. Mecauv then submitted th* fallowing :
Resolved , TJmt tho city of Philadelphia dopg roßDoet
fuily, but most earn* ally, protest auainsl the pasNag© by
the Legislature of a bill entitled “ An act to increase the
powers of the Bohml of Health of the city of Pniladel
pbitt relative to the cieandngot the streets,” and, auioug
other reasous lor doing so, they roup- ctfnlly represent to
the Legislature—
First. That said bill, under cover of a regard for the
public welfare, was Darned by private parties for purely
personal and selfish objects, and does not emanate eituer
from the Board of Health, or from tbe Mayor or Council*
of the city ; and. therefore.
Second.- Its effect will be to take from the propor au
thorities of the city, whose muuicipa! duty it i* to direet
th® Oleailfling ftf ths city, as they do It* lighting or its
police, an Important part of their pr iper functions;
while, in tbe third place, it will clothe a subordinate and
comparatively irresponsible department of the municipal
government with a wholly unlimited power of expendi
ture, and with authority to biud the city by a contract,
without limit as to cort. or tlm city having the slightest
feuperribiou over such contract, purely for the benefit of
private and selfish parties.
Resolved, That the joint special commilke »f Coun
cils upon legislate n be, and they are hereby, directed,
without delay, to take alt proper measures to bring these
resolutions of protest befoi© the Governor and Legisla
ture* and to prevent the passage of the bill to which they
relate.
Mr. Fox called forth© reading of tho act.
Tbo clerk then read the bill. It vests the Board of
Health with full power to enter into a contrast, in the
name of the city of Philadelphia, for the cleAnsiag of the
streets, and the removal of coal rtn-»t, smhoß, garbage, Ac.
Mr, GISNOIiQ tmid that tho people of PhUndolphiahava
been imposed upon. Couinuuiicutionp have appeared ia
all tho public prints, suggesting modes by which tho
street* could be cleaned. There was a time when Phila
delphia had the name of being the cleanest and best go
verned city in tho Union; but times have changed, and
the peopb have been obliged to .trade through mud UfiUl
“patience bag ccaeen to oe a virtue.” The citizen*have
sought relief in these Chambers m vain, and then they
went to the authority from which the municipal govern
ment obtained its powers aud asked redress. Either
Councils or the Highway Depurlment have been derelict
in their duty. Petitions have bcou sent in here, ami a
WAS Appointed on the subject, but the proceed
ings ot the committee had been smothered. If the High
way Department did rot do its duty, lie was in favor of
placing the power in the hands of some one who would.
Dr. Uhlku was opposed to ihe bill before the Legisla
ture. He considert d Councils more competent to attoud
(6 the buam&Bft 6f th* l ' City tL&li th© which Is
made up from every comity, tie was satisfied that the
streets must be rlimned soon orwo would have an epi
demic such ns the world has never eeou before. lie knew
that from what little scientific and medical knowledge he
possessed.
Mr. Megauv condemned the practice of tho Legisla
iure intvrJWjng with tbe business of Oitjr Councils. Th©
members of City Councils are responsible to the people
of Philadelphia for their action, but have no control
over the membe: from Allegheny or tho one from Berks
county. He was in favor of kuoping tho streets clean at
all hazards, however.
Dr. 13in.Kit UK&iu spoke upon the resolutions. He was
A BKiubtr of the committee to consider the proposition,
of Mr. Fey&son, and mentioned the understanding be
tween the members. He telt a littl© interest in thu mat
ter, as he thought tho city should derive some revenuo
from the cleauiug of the streets, .removal of garbage,
Ac., the same as some European cities do.
Mr. Lyxd thought that it was not tbo province of
Cppjicils to (licteto to or wkise the Legislature. He
considered that the functions of Councils were solely
confined to legislating for the city lc ought to be an
unusual case where Councils step aside to advise th 6
Legislature. If any bills are particularly injurious to
the interestß of the city, the people ate the proper re
monstrants, and not City Councils. Mr. L. concluded
by remarking that he should vote for the resolution »a »
simple and respectful remonstrance.
Mr. Fox said that tbo real fault was in the Legislature
fixing the organization of Councils in January, and thus
delaying the action upon the appropriation bills.
After some further discussion, the resolutions were
adopt' il*
Mr. FOX, upon leave, introduced au ordinance appro
priating $5OO for the relief of the widows aud families of
Thomas McCabe and Thomas Carberry, who were killed
on Friday afternoon by tho caving in of the bank in In
dependence Square. The bill was passed finally.
Th© Chamber then adjourned.
COMMON BRANCH-
This Chamber was net called to order until five o'clock,
when, on motion, Mr. Trego took the chair, and the call
for the meeting was read.
The Clerk of Select Council here entered, and an
nounced that that Chamber had passed an earnest pro
test against the passage of certain bills now before the
State Legiplature.
Mr. Bakoeu said that lu* had passed a portion of the
past week at Harrisburg, and he had observed that the
country membtrs took their cue from the city members,
who did notdo tboir duty to the city. In many cases the
city members did not act with regard to tbe interests of
the city. There is a feeling at Harrisburg that the Phi
ladelphia Councils wish to dictate, mem
bers that we had no disposition to dictate, but that we
wish simply to protect our rights. The speaker added
that lie had had a conversation iu reference to the street
cleaning bill, and showed how wrong it was. it did not
appear to be effective, however; and the speaker hoped
ihat the resolutions before tho Chamber would pass
Unanimously.
Dr. Sirks said that ir tho Philadelphia City Council*
had passed an appropriation of six, seven, or eight thou
sand dollars and directed the Legislative Committee to
expend it at Hatrisburg, wo would have no trouble. The
Legislature, for the last two or three years, has been a
disgrace to this or any Stare It is useless to send auy
mere committees to lf we appropriate tea
thousand dollars, to buy those scoundrels, we can do
something. Otherwise, let us appropriate money enough
to buy hemp for the scamps, who are sent from the city
to legislate for us at llarri»,burg. We are const am ly
startled by the corruption of the body which aits at Har
risburg, whil© they ridicule us for sending people there
without plenty of money. I shell vote for the roaolutlAWS,
though I think it will have no effect, without an appro
priation to buy those scoundrels up.
Mr. Ckesswei.l also made a brief speech in favor of
the protest, and against the bill now before the Legisla
ture iu reference to street cleaning.
Mr. Quix also tired into the and declared
that the persons who were to get tbe contract for cleaa
iue the streets from the Board of Health were rotten, and
their''scheme was a fraud.
Mr. Lououlik said that this special legislation was be
coming a curse to tbe city. This law iu reference to
cleansing operations would put us at th© soorcy of a mo
uopolii The Legi&l&tuie might luwoll go one atop fur
ther, and decree that jurors chosen by the courts should
represent the people of Philadelphia in Councils. He
trusted that thu resolutions of protest would be unani
mously adopted.
The resolutions of protest tken passed unanimously, as
the>' came from Select Council.
The ordinance for ihe relief of the families of Thomas
McCabe and Thomas Carberry, deceased, wo* then token
up and passed finally.
Tbe Chamber then adjourned.
Delay in the Payment op City
“WARRANTS. —There is groat complaint abroad of *lie
delay in the payment of city warrants, and the brokers
are realizing a handsome profit upon the papt-r in the
bands of city creditors. The system operates with parti
cular severity upon the teachers in the public schools,
who toil hard for the pay they receive (in many instan
ces but $2OO a year,) and who have no way afforded
them to realize the pittance due thorn, except at a
Shave of from Light to teii bet- dOht. If the Warrants duo
the teachers on the first of the present month are not
promptly honored, it will bo just one year since this
worthy class of employees of the city have received their
earnings direct from the treasury.
The Independence Square Aooi-
DENT.—-The coroner’s jury iu the case of the two men—
Carberry and McCabe—who were so summarily buried
alive in Independence Square on Friday last, have ren
dered a verdict of accidental death. Thev exonerate
Mr. Lee, tho contractor, from all blame in the premises.
He hue, he mitetftu'}, offered to bury tho two men nt
lus own expense. It will be seen, also, that Councils
have appropriated five hundred dollars for the same
purpose. .
TnE First Train. —The first freight
car over the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, sioce tho re.
bels took possession of a potion of that road in April
last, arrived on Saturday, consigned to Messrs. Colboun
& Cowton, corner of Broad and Cherry streets. This is
the opening of a new route, aud will contribute largely
to increase the trade of Philadelphia with the West and
Southwest. Goods by this route are now received from
fit. Louis within ten dajs.
Charged with Beckless Driving.
—Albert Staizell has been arrested on the charge of
running over a little child of Alderman W H. Butlor.
The accused, it is alleged, was driving a wagon near
Cellowbill and Marshall streets, and the child was crushed
toy tho wheels. Statzoll was bound over to answer at
court.
Charles Whiteman was held to bail, on Saturday, by
Alderman Swift, for driving a wagon over an old woman
at Sixth aud Pine streots.
North Pennsylvania Iron Trade.
—The iron trade over the lined the North Pennsylvania
Railroad bids fair to be of great importance at an early
day. The Allentown Bolling Mill commenced operations
with three furnaces last week. This is one of the lead
ing rolling mills in the country. We are told that no
better quality of iron is manufactured in the United
States. In six or sovsti weak* everything #lll be In
working order. Hundreds of hands can find employ
ment who have heretofore been idle.
A Libel Suit.— Tho case of John W.
Culling, charged with libel, will bo brought uu In the
Court or Quarter Sessions to-day. The alleged libel was
contained in a letter addressed to the non. E. M. Stan
ton, Secretary of War, rererring to frauds upon the Go*
vernment in connection with contracts for .hoes. This
is the first jury of the April term, and the court will be
presided over by Judge Thompson,

RAILROAD AND MILITARY MAP OF THE
SOUTHERN STATES,
Compiled from the moit authentic sources, and the
United States CoaatSurveys, by tne Committee on Inland
Tianßportaliou of the Board of Trade of Philadelphia*
and superbly engraved in the finest style of map
making.
The Information for this m»p was recently obtained
toy A PERSONAL TOUR THROUGH THE SOUTH,
as well as by the information given toy THE PRESI
DENT OF EVERY RAILROAD; the corrections make
it COMPLETE TO THE PRESENT HOUR; and it
gives so recent and such valuable facta co&cerniag all
the Railroads* that the War Department immediately au
thorized its publication, and distributed ONE THOU
SAND COPIES among the Generals and Colonels of
the Army; that order having been supplied, no further
delay in issuing the map will occur, and subscribers can
now be supplied at the following prices:

Beautifully mounted and framed for office use, S 3.
Several weighty reasons for purchasing t( HAZ ARD’S
RAILROAD AND MILITARY MAP #F THE SOUTH
ERN STATES:”
Ist. It is the official map, and, therefore, must bo the
Wet and moat reliable, which ia everything, particularly
at this time, when a good map is of such universal inte
rest. This is the ONLY MAP that has been officially
adopted for Government purposes
2d. The Coast is so distinct and accurato, it shows
every littlo island and inlet, and is as correct as the large
maps issued by the Coast Survey Office.
§d. it is very 21 i? toy 55 inches and is one
of the best specimens of map engraving ever done in this
country.
4th. It presents the whole Southern States at one view,
and the railroads are so distinctly tqarkod as to show at
a glance the most important strategical points.
General McClellan hak acknowledged in several com
raunicAttons the 11 gnat importiiw to hit mvemtnts of
the accurate information in regard to the Southern
railroads conveyed in this man
Testimasials ol the same character have been received
from Prof. A. D. Bachb, of the Coast Survey Depart
ment, as to the great accuracy of the coast line, and one
hundred extra copies ordered , 4l to distribute among the
Commanders of the Atlantic and Hulf
which have been furnished.
While ADOPTED FOR ITS ACCURACY by the MILITARY
Authorities* &9 has been stated, it is yet more especially
a Commercial Map, and was at first intended expressly
for that purpose. Hence its value will oe uadiminished
whan tho war is over, and ronowod attention is dir Acted
to that section. It will form a valuable aid in elucida
ting the forthcoming report of the Board of Trade ou the
commercial and industrial resources of the South, which
will describe the extraordinary beauties of parts of the
country, bow tho railroada are diverting tbo travel from
the Mississippi, and loading to the great commercial
centres of the North, &c&c.
After what has been said of the great value of this
wap to every intellioent man, is there any one who
will be without it '! particularly since. its price has been
mode as low as that of Inferior maps, in order to keep
up with the times. We are coostaotly told by those who
already have several of the maps rushed upon,tho public <
that they have laid them asiuo and use only this one.
Accuracy and Distinctness are tho characteristics
of ibis map* the only one sanctioned by the Government.
