SPEECH OF HON. W. E. LEHMAN,
CP PENNSYLVANIA,
tJs’IHS IIM>K OF RRrKESEXT.WIVKS, APRIL 9, 1862.
The bill being up to reorganize the medical
department- of the army, Mr. Wallace, of I'enn
syivama. moved to amend to authorize fcho Preri
dett to select the surgeons and assistants from the
rv(Wtvr seiYice a? as the ngtdar army.
Mr. Lehman. of Pennsylvania, in support of the
amendment, said:
Mr. Speaker : X regretted very much to hear the
sentiment which pervaded the close of the remarks
of the gentleman from Ncvr York (Mr. Steele). X
am in favor of the amendment which has been pro
posed. I have no doubt it was offered in perfect
sincerity by my colleague from Pennsylvania (Mr.
Wallace), and not as a bid for popular favor ; cer
tainly, it id advocated with entire sincerity by
myself. 1 have no disposition to deny the quali
fications or the loyalty of the officers of the medi
cal department of the regular army, who have
given their lives to this arouous service, but gen
tlemen will admit that we have had n<> anuy until
lately. Our army has, bereWfOrCj 1)8011 trifling in
size, and we have been ridiculed by other nations
for the smallness of our efficient military force. I
will ask the gentleman from New York, (Mr.
§teele.) when ho lauds the ability of tiwue oca
netted with the medical department of the regu
lar army, where they got their experience? Was
it at the small stations aud forts upon the borders
of our country, where a company or two of regu
lars Were stationed, -where There was no hospital,
and where, perhaps, the most indifferent and un
occupied man was the bead of the medical foree
then ? Sir. men in all vocations rust out sooner
than they wear out. In this fast age, it requires
Constant scfciun io keep up with present advances ;
and the medical pTofcs>ion is no exception to this
rule. When the present medical force entered the
service, medical science was not as it is now. Im
provements are being made daily;' and it is neces
sary that new books should bo road; new instru.
xnents tested; now discoveries examined, in order
that ordinary efficiency should be attained in that
science.
A great army hns been improvised—not of regu
lars, not of trained men, but froui civil lift
have been called out to support the Government
from all the various walks and avocations of life.
Go into our army of 000.000 men, and you will find
men of all professions and all callings. You will
find the lawyer there, and the man of study, and
the votary of science, side by side with the mer
chant and the mechanic, each vieing with the other
in daring the dangers of the field. Most of these
men are unused to the toils, privations, and expo
sures of a campaign, and they - arc peculiarly liable
to those diseases incident to a sudden change of life
and climate.
It is conceded on all sides that we want the most
efficient men in the service of the medical burean.
We must supersede the {nsa who Walk and fIIOVC
by the strictest rule. It is the curse of the system
that we adhere too closely to the regular routine —
the red tape—circumlocution order of manage
ment. Our hospitals are without the necessary
supplies; ther are filled with sick and dying sol
diers. who are not properly ministered to merely
because rule, and routine, aud circumlocution, and
rank, and seniority interfere with duty, and over
ride what men of common sense and discretion
would remedy on the instant. If we have a large
army and great battles, we will need extended hos
pitals, and if we would have efficient men to take
charge of them we must secure the serrices of phy
sicians who have spent their lives and acquired
ibeir skill in the hospitals of our large cities—men
who know how to build hospitals, how to YSSUlftto
Them ; who know how to construct the cooking de
partment, and to furnish the soldiers with the most
improved couches lor their tortured and suffering
frames to repose upon. Therefore, I think, if we
are going to institute a reform in the medical de
partment, of the army, we should entrust the en
lightened and patriotic Chief of this Government,
who is to make the appointments, with the widest
range of selection. For my own part, without de
siring or designing to asperse the professional skill
4? ability of any aurgeoa in the regular army, I
most unhesitatingly say that the best men to take
charge of tae medical department of the army and
the most efficient scientific counsel can be obtained
from that noble and honored class of physicians in
civil life; far more experienced and efficient than
cau be obtained from the limited medical corps of
the regular army. Sir, I hope the amendment aud
the whole bill will pass.
The bill as amended passed the House.
Splendid Munificence
The following correspondence has been published
in the Times of the 20th Maroti :
London, March 12,1502.
Gektlehitin ; In reference to the intention
which it is the object of this letter to communicate,
I am desirous to explain that from a comparatively
early period of my commercial life, I had resolved
in my own mind that, should my labors be blessed
with success, I would devote a portion of the
property thus acquired to promote the inielleetual,
moral, and physical welfare and comfort of my
fellow-meu, wherever, from circumstances or loca
tion. their claims upon me would be the strongest.
4i A kind Providence has continued me ifl pros
perity, and consequently, in furtherance of iny
resolution, 1, in the year 1852. founded an institute
and library for the benefit of the people of the place
of my birlb. in the town of Danvers, iu the Slate of
Massachusetts, the result of which has proved in
every mpi et most beneficial to the locality and
gratifying to myself
“ After an absence of twenty years I visited my
native land in 1857, and founded, in the city of
Baltimore, in the rftate of Maryland, (where more
than twenty ye«rs of my business life had been
passed}, an institute upon a much more extended
scale, devoted to science and the arts, with a free
library, coinciding with the character of the insti
tution. The corner stone was laid in ISSS, aud
the building is now completed, but its dedication
has been postponed in consequence of the unhappy
sectional differences at present prevailing in the
United States.
“It is now twenty-five years since I commenced
iu7 mid me and business in London as a stranger;
hut I did not long feel myself a 1 stronger/ or in a
‘strange land/ for, in all my commercial and social
intercourse wiih my British friends during that
long period. I have constantly received courtesy,
kindness, and eopficknce, Under a sense of grati*
tude for these blessings of a kind Providence, en
couraged by early associations, and stimulated by
my views as well of duty as of inclination to follow
the path which I had heretofore marked out for my
guidance, I have been prompted for several years
past, repeatedly, to state to some of my confidential
friends my intention, at no distant period, if my
life was spared, to make a donation for the benefit
of the poor of London. Among those friends are
three of the number to whom I have now the honor
to address this letter. To my particular friend, C,
M. Lampson, Esq., I first mentioned the subject
five years ago. My next conversations in relation
to it were held about three years since with my
esteemed Iriend, Sir James Emerson Tennent, and
with my partner, J. S. Morgan, Ecq. I also availed
myself of opportunities to consult the Right Rev.
Bishop M'llvuiLe, of Ohio, and with all these gen
tlemen I have since freely conversed upon the sub
ject in a way to confirm the original intention.
11 My object being to ameliorate the condition of
the poor and needy of <his great metropolis, and to
promote their comfort and happiness, I take plea*
sure in apprising you 1 have determined to
transfer to you the sum of £150,000, which now
stands available, for this purpose, on the books of
Messrs. George Peabody ft Co,, asyou will see by
the accompanying correspondence.
“In committing to you in full confidence in your
judgment the administration of this fund, I cannot
nut feel grateful to you for the onerous duties you
have so cheerfully undertaken to perform, and £
sincerely hope and trust that the benevolent feel
ings that have prompted a devotion of eo much of
your valuable liino will be appreciated not only by
the present, but future, generations of the people
of London.
“ X have few instructions to give or conditions to
Impose, but there are some fundamental principles
from which it is my solemn injunction that those
intrusted with its application shall never, under
any circumstances, depart.
** First and foremost among them is the limita
tion of its use?, absolutely and exclusively, to such
purposes as may be calculated directly to ameliorate
the condition and augment the comforts of the
poor who, either by birth or established residence,
form a recognized portion of the population of Lou
don.
“ Secondly. It is my intention that now, and far
all time, there shall be a rigid exclusion from the
management of this fund, of any influence calcu- ;
laled to impart to it a character either sectarian as I
regards religion, ur exclusive in relation to local or j
party politics. j
u Thirdly. In conformity with the foregoing con- !
dition?, it is xny wish and intention that the sole
qualifications for a participation in the benefits of
tnis fund shall be an ascertained and continued con
dition of life such as brings the individual within
the description (in the ordinary a ease of the word)
of * the poor' of London, combined with moral
character and good conduct as a member of society.
It must, therefore, be held to be a violation of my
intentions if any duly qualified and deserving
claimant were to be excluded either ou the grounds
of religious belief or of political bias.
u Without, in the remotest degree, desiring to
limit your discretion in the selection of the most
suitable means of giving effect to these objects,
I may be permitted to throw out for your con
sideration, aiueng the other projects which will
necessarily occupy your attention, whether it may
not be found conducive to the conditions specified
above for their ultimate realization, and least likely
to present difficulties on the grounds I have pointed
out for avoidance, to apply the fund, or a portion of
it, in the construction of such improved dwellings
for the poor as may combine in the utmost possible
degree the essentials of healthfulness, comfort,
social enjoyment, and economy.
“ Preparatory to due provision being made for
the formal declaration of the trust, and for its fu
ture management and appropriation, the sum of
.£150.000 will be at once transferred into your
names, and placed at your disposal, for which pur
pose I reserve to myself full power and authority;
but as a portion of tho money may probably not
be required for some time to come, to meet the legi
timate purposes contemplated, I would suggest
that, as early as possible after the organization of
the trust, £IOO,UUU should be invested for the time
being, in your names, in consols or East India Stock,
Ihlii &ddihg id the capital by means of the accruing
interest; and the stock so purchased can be gra
dually sold out as the money is wanted for the ob
jects designated. Meantime, pending the prepara
tion of a formal trust deed, you shall be under no
responsibility whatever in respect of the fund, Or
it? Investment or disposition.
“'With these preliminary stipulations, I commit
the fund to your management, and to tbatof such
other persons as by a majority of jrour voices you
nay elect, giving you the power either to add to
your number (which I think should not at any time
exceed sine) or to supply casual vacancies occur
ring in your body. It is my further desire that
the United States minister in London for the time
should Always, In virtue of the office, be a
member of the trust, unless in the event of hi 3 sig
nifying his inability to act in discharge of the du
ties.
“I have the honor to be, gentlemen, yours very
faithfully,' Uso. Pkauody.

United States minister in London.

something In the matter.

He thought it no morsdUftii proper that this great man*
wbo had undergone so many hardships for the ciu.-,e of

twiou this city and Camden. Thu high wind, in con
nection with the heavy snow, caused a groat destruction
of uwnings, Ac., and several sheds about the city were
domoliriied.
A shed attached to Roussel's mineral water establish
ment. on Fnmo street* was crushed bylthu heavy weight
of tiic snow. Five wagons wore much broken by tho
accident. A son of Mr. Kousstl, who happened to be
prceent at the time, had one arm broken, and was se
verely injured about the face.
About twelve o’clock Wednesday night, a frame build-
Itigr, which had been erected at H'enlli aud W ushington
streets, by the Welles Home Guards, for drilling pur
poses, fell down No person was injured, however.
At Second street and C’Oombß’alley tho lower port'on
of the front of a building was torn out. The awning had
been fastened to the frame work* and the weight of the
snow bore tho whole concern, including the bulk wiudow
and the doorv ay, to the sidewalk.
The storm did not interfere materially with the tele
graph lines. Yesteiday all the various lines were work
ins well, as usual.
The Eastern and Southern mails were detained
a very short time behind tiie usual hour, hut the Western
mail was considerably behind time. The delay was at
some point west of Harrisburg, and it is thought that the
storm has been very severe on tho Alleghany mountains.
Yesterday the sun shone out brightly, and the snow
commenced to disappear as fast as it came. During tho
early part of the day the streets over wnicli the railway
tracks are laid were completely flooded with pickled
slush. But few* of the radroad companies took the
trouble to open passages to tho gutters and allow the
water to pass off. It the salting of tracks is allowed, the
wmpairieß ehsmld compelled to* cut gullets for tho
passage of the water. This course has been recommended
by the college of physicians.
Alleged Overpayment of Duties.
—A cn§e <?f ?<??}&iderable infcrwt Imw been occupyieg the
attention of the ilnited States Circuit Court, in which an
action has been brought against an ex-collector of the
customs for the port of v Philadelphia, to recover the
amount of an alleged overpayment of duties cn certain
woollen goods, which were imported by tho plaintiffs in
the years 1855 and 1656 ashlaukcts. Tlie collector classed
them as coming under tho head of cloths or coalings, and
therefore subjoct to a duty of 30 per cent., blankots beiug
only subject to a duty of 20 per cent.
The plaiitifls paid this duty under protest, and, failing
to obtain a revision of the extra duty on appeal to the
Treasury Department, brought this grift, Qu the part Of
tho Government, it is claimed that they were coatings,
cut up Into blanket shape for the purpose of evading the
extra duty.
For the purpose of sustaining this view of tho cewa, a
number of custom-house appraisers from New York and
Philadelphia, most of whom had boon in fhc WPvilCU
goods trade for many years, were called, aud testified
that, prior to the year 1846, these goods were never im
ported as blankets, but in large pieces, as Duflield cloth;
and that after the passage of the tarifl' act, they began
to make their appearance in the shape of blankets, the
only difference being thftt ? instead of coming as pieces of
cloth, they were cut up in olanbft size, and had stripes
on. Manufacturers were also called, and testified, samples
being shown them, that they were cloths, aud net
blankets, and they pointed out the difference between
them.
On* the other hand ■ tluMilatnl iffs called ft number of im
porters from this city, and read the depositions of others
from other cities, testifying that they were known to the
trade, and had been sold as blankets, prior to and since
the year 1546, and not cloths.
The case is one of consid* rable importance, for its de
cision will give or take away from the treasury of the
Government hundreds of thousands of dollars. St Georgo
T. Campbell, of this city, and Griswold, of New York,
appear for the plaintiffs, and J. Hubley Ashton, assistant
United States district attorney, appears for the defendant.
Sword Presentation to a Gallant
OFFK'HR.—A handsome sword and belt hag been pre
sented t-i Lieutenant Geo. W, Kenney. The Lieutenant
joined Colonel Baker’s Regiment ut the opening of the
Mar. and served until the fatal day of Ball's Bluff. At
that battle he stood near the heroic Baker when ft? WM
killed, and. In company with a few of hie comrades, bore
hU noble leader from the field. Returning to the front
of tiie fight, the brave lieutenant was taken prisoner,
and, with bis comrades, sent to Richmond, from whence
he was recently released. He intends leaving for the seat
of war again io ft short time. On Wednesday a
nnniberof his friends presented him a haudsome sword
aud belt, the former inscribed with words indicating that
it was tendered him in memory of his gallantry at Ball’s
Bluff.
The presentation took place at his father’s residence.
Mf. Pfetei Lamb, i& a few-.well-chosen remarks, handed
the sword to the Rev. G. D. Carrow, who made the for
mal speech of presentation. Mr. Carrow eulogized the
American army in felicitous terms. In presenting tho
sword, lie pronounced the cause in which it was to bo
drawn a holy one, and tho sword as sacred as “ the sword
of the Lord and of Gideon;” as sacred as the ml of
Mo&es. l< George,” he said. “ your friends are moro
than satisfied with you; they are proud of you when
they remember Baker and Ball’s Bluff.” Lieut. Kenney
made a charmingly modest little speech in accepting tha
weapon, and with words which well became him, he
pt6h6unc4d his d&toftulcailob, by God'e grace, to boar
himsf If in a manner worthy of his late heroic leader, and
worthy of the sacred cause in which he was engaged.
Among the guests present on the occasion was Sergt.
Brown, of Lieut. K.’s company, who fought and was
captured by his siiU, and who will again go into action
with the gallant Lieutenant;
Tue Geeat Minds that Educate
US. The Board of Control has not profited by the re
cent clamor against it to mend its ways. Much of its
time was engrossed on Tuesday with business of a trivial
Character, &§, f6i ; example, the selection of a committee
to investigate the duties of an assistant at tlio High
School. It seems that the German professor there has
hired an assistant at his own expense, in order to forward
the efficiency of his department. The action of these
“Progressives ” is calculated either to remove the ffer*
man professor or to retard the study of the German In'
tbe High School; or, what is likelier than all, to injure
the harmony of the institution and the peace of mind of
its Principal. In the same way, a report of the pro
ceedings of an investigating committee is being pub
lished, at an expense of upwards of a hundred dollars.
It i* filled with the so3«P of pupils and teachers who
have been suborned to testify as to the character
of their Principal. The teachers who were some time
ago voted out of this school have been uniformly pro*
tent at these investigations: and, to gratify sundry
private spleen and scandal, the tax-payers must foot the
bills for the publication of a worse than idle document*
lu this publication will be printed statements of teach
ers inimical to other teachers, and of pupils and profes
sors who have testified against their Principal. What
will be the friendly relations of these gentlemen iu the
school for the future l
Important to Metutiers of the Bar,
—Judge Read, in the case of Chain et al. vs. Young et ah,
a case on the equity side of the court, has entered a de
cree dismissing all the exceptions to the answers of the
defendants to the complainants’ bill, excepting the sixth,
which is so far allowed that the blanks must be filled,
and the seventh, which is allowed, unless the name of
Samuel F. Godwin is entirely stricken out of the answer.
Iu this connection, Judge Read made the following order,
which is of importance to members of the bar:
“As the exceptions to answers are, under our rules,
heard by a judge at Nisi Prius, 1 weald particularly call
the attention of tlis bat to the hnihner In which excep
tions should be drawn, as slated by Judge Story, in
Brooks vs. Byam, 1 Story, C. C. R.3UO: ‘The exceptions
should have stated the charges in the bill, and the inter
rogatory applicable thereto to which the answor is ad
dressed, and then have stated the terms of the answer
verbatim, eo that the court, without searching tho Ml!
and auswer throughout, might at once have perceived the
ground of the exception, and ascertained its sufficiency.’
This rule must be pursued in future ”

Pirn. adeli’HlA, March 31,1562.
Professors Boli.es and Ahajis, 1220 Walnut street.
Gents.: The renuirkable euro which I have derived
freni your method of applying ELECTRICITY, compels
mo to thus acknowledge tho great obligations I am un«
der to you for snatching me, as it were, from an imme
diate death. About two years ago, while a resident of
Cincinnati, Ohio, I was visited with an attack of para
lysis of the lower extremities, which rendered me almost
entirely unable to stand upon my limbs. I employed
some of tho most ptu'siciitHß to bo found to
'that section, but received no apparent benefit, and after
a lapse of about eighteen months was taken with a
spasm, which oue of my physicians pronounced a fit of
apoplexy. Two weeks elapsed from that time before I
became the least cocsciona of anything that had trans
pired, nor could I concentrate my mind or converse upon
atp subject without becoming very visionary and ox
cited, until I placed oiyself uuder your valuable treat
ment.
While in Ohio, and after my friends, my family, and
myself had forsaken all hopes of my improvement or re
covery, my wife proposod that a visit to the Kast might
pcodibly bent fit uie, aud alter consulting with our phy.
Bician on the subject, obtained his consent and approval.
After my arrivalin Philadelphia’my attention was called
to your treatment by a pamphlet handed me by my
father, which contained tho names of some gentlemen
whom I had been formerly acquainted with, and whoso
statements I could rely upon. I immediately made up
my mind to place myself under your treatment. I have
now been the recipient of four treatments, aud I now
feel perfectly Batißfied that I am restored to abound con

acknowledge the benefits which I have received through
your treatment.

Attention Is called to this valuable remedy which should
be In every family, and for the Army and Nary it is In
dispensable, curing affections of ihe stomach and bowels*
and is a certain preventive from tho effects of bad water.
CAUTION. —To prevent this valuable Essence from

order to guard tbe purchaser against being imposed upon
by worthless imitations. And sold by aU respectable

or
PURE GGD-lIjIVER OIL.
The repugnance of most patients to COD-LIVBB
oili, and the inability of many to take it at all, lias In
duced various forms (of disguise for its administration
that are familiar to the Medical Profession. Some of
them answer In special cases, but more often thelvehiclo
nentmltees the usual effect of the Oil, provlnfl unite ai
unpalatable and of less therapeutio value. The repug
nance, nausea, Ac., to invalids, Inducod by disgust of th*
Oil, Is entirely obviated by the use of our CAPSULBS.
OOD-LIVBB OIL CAPSULBS have been much nsed
lately in Europe, the experience there of the goodfre
snlts from their nse in both hospital and private practioe,
aside from" the naturally suggested advantages, are suf
ficient to warrant our claiming the virtues we do for
them, feeling assured their nse will result In benefit and
deserved favor. Prepared by
