When I got the tickets I put them both in the same
pocket; I did not look at them attentively: I could not
distinguish betweon them ; I took both tickets and held
them In my band; I did not care which party won; I
Aid not choose any one ; I voted the one that, came first,
the other 1 tcok home and threw in the fire without
■opening it; the reason I declined to anßwer for whom I
voted, was because I did not really know for whom I
voted.
To Judge Ludlow. After I got the tickets, I staid
About half on hour away ; I did not open them, but kept
them In my pocket.
Joseph Manuel recalled —I reside at Ho. 1339 North
Eighth etreet, in the Second division of the Twentieth
ward ; I have lived there for the past ten years; I voted
that day; I have raid the tax within two years before
the election, it was personal tax.
The witness was asked to show his receipt, but refused
fto produce it unless he was shown to be a fraudulent
voter.
hlr. Hirst asked the court to compel the witness to pro*
fluce the receipt. ,
Mr. Brewster thought bucH a manner of proceeding
Was wrong. He did not tike tboße fishing voyages fdtfv
case in point. .
Mr. Hirst again asked the court to instruct the witness
to show the receipt. It was not proper, ho thought, that
A person who bad paid a tax on his real estate or his dog
Should vote upon that.
Judge Thompson thought it was wholly wrong to call
tip voters in this manner and assail their votes.
Judge Thompson desired to know what Mr. Hirst in
tended to prove. " >
'Mr, Hirst stated that he expected to prove that Mr.
‘Manuel bad only paid a real estate tax.
Judge Thompson (aid that, unless some better evidence
iwas given $ be would noi call upon the witness for the tax
receipt. • ■* •- ,
Judge Ludlow said when a paper vital to the cause at
Issue is spoken of, the counsel have a legal right to see
the paper.
Examination resumed.—l paid a personal tax in 1860.
Question. To whom did you pay that taxi
• The witness. I decline unless compelled by the court
todußwer. ..
The court intimated that it should be answered.
I paid the tax to George W Briggs, the authorized tax
receiver, at the receiver's office; I don't pay it to an al
derman to keep in his pocket; Ido not recollect the
month ;'it was paid early enough to get the discount off
my bill; I paid taxes In the First, Thirteenth, Fifteenth;
Seventeenth, Nineteenth, and Twentieth wards; the
Twentieth ward bill contains my perrons! tax.
Gross ei amh el.—My vote has never been questioned
I>y any one before.
Judge Tbompst n remarked that tho practice of calling
citizens against whom there is but a bare possibility
that they have not paid a tax is certainly wrong, if not
for the valuable time it takes op. Such examinations
have olready taken up a good many hours, and in nearly
all cases, the witnesses bad turned out to be perfectly
legal voters.- • r ; :
The court then adjourned until.this morning.
A! Singular Case or Inciting to
BlOT.—Yesterday George W. Hufty and
George W. Oare were charged before Alderman Wm.
MoMnllen, on the oath of a man named Seycrns. with
Inciting to riot. Irseema that a few days since Mr.Qaro
was standing with another person in front of the office of
a weekly paper, published on.south Third street, the
proprietors of Said, paper but a short tiras since having
fceen held to answer the charge of libeling John Dolman
And others, members of an organization in this city,
known OB the “ Sons of Liberty.**. Mr. Oare ia also a'
member of this organization, which, in tho libellous
Issue, was charged with being “a band of aword trai*"
tors:" *, This gentleman, while standing in front of .the
Office and oonverstng, .was-accostud by another party.
Allusion was made to the paper, and a warm dlsondrion
ensued. Mr. Hufty made his appearance about this
thus, and learning the subject of the conversation, said,
AS the paper was of strong Secession proclivities, it
Should not be allowed to be in existence. This remark
Is supposed to have given rise to their wrest, upon tbe
charge of inciting to riot, and for whioh they were held
to answer,: Both Mr. -Hufty ajid Jlr.-Careare gentle*
men of well-known patriotism land. worth. The latter,
mp, doubt, felt much aggrieved over the Btigma cast on
ills character by the publication alluded to, especially
When he was hot in the least deserving of the same.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.
THE MONEY MARKET.
, Philadelphia, July 24,1862.
The most noticeable feature in the money market to-,
day was the sudden decline in the premium oh gold. The
tales opened at 1 ratheifstiffl? ; about noon large
pales were made at 117, and at the close the rate fell to
116; Advices from Hew York caused the decline here,
And very probaliy au immense supply thrown on the
Cnarket by specelators who were forced to sell, caused
the decline there, She bast reason forjthis decline is,
perhaps, to be found iu the following: Certain parties in
Hew York busied themselves in buying up all the gold
they could get at tbo lower rates, say 8 to 10 percent.,
snHpipating a rise, yet, being compelled to use their
money, they put; the gold on special deposit with their
Banks, and received the notes of Ibft banks for circula
tion for a certain length or lime. That time aspires, and
width it the term of tbo «special deposit,” and the bankß,
With not an overliking for deposits which they oannot
entirely control, and fearing too great inflation of their
currency, debiro to wl hdraw from the conditions of the
"bargain; the speculator is compelled, therefore, to sell his
gold to pay the hank, and if several large operators come
on the market together, a panic is created, and theprice
fails. The high rate was fictitious and caused by specu
lation, and now that the maximum figure lias been
reached, the vehicle known as >• premium” will travel
down tho hill, perhaps, as fast as It travelled np; always
allowing, «f course, for the action of tho brakes, with
.Which operators moy temporarily check its speed. Silver
also declined two per cent, and tho market was un
settled, .. , - ,
‘•Old demands” were very active, and large uuantltios
were floating on the street.: The opening flgnre was
107), among the buyers. On the decline in gold becom
ing known they foil to 10GX, but rallied later in the day
to IOT, at which figure they closed. There was rather
tnore Inaniry for (ha s.van-thirties on the street; buy
ing rate was 102, selling ]O2Jf, A smaller business was:
done at the Board of Brokers than has been noticed for ‘
, Some time past. Prices were generally about the same
sa yesterday. Unitrd States sixes, 1881, .advanced
feeing in demand at OSJf. The seven-thirties, blank,
wero steady at 102;,'; no change. Oity sixes, new, were,

CITY ITEMS.
Patriotism in the Churches;-— Tea girls
oftha Sunday school of the Befomed .Church, on Race
street, below Fourth (Dr. Bomberger/pastor), recently
held a fair, in tho lectnre room of the church, in aid of
our rick and wounded .patriots., The handsome sum
of one hundred and eight dollars was ronlizedt aad paid
over to the army committee of the Young Men’s Christian
Association of this city, and is to be applied to the relief
of thoiomates of one of the Alexandria hospitals. About
a week before the fair, the same Snnday school,furnished
two large boxes of suitable articles for the John Brooks,
and thus ministered to the comfort of sufferers conveyed
to {hie city by'{hat vessel. These are some of the plea
sant fruits of the sincere and beneficent patriotism of the
pastor and people of the old B ace* street Reformed
Church—a patriotism inherited from the days of Wey*
burg, its pastor during the Revolution, whom the British
imprisoned and threatened to kill, on account of hi* influ
ence upon the Hessians, many of whom be persuaded to
desert lfca'flag of the invaders, and join the Colonial
army. ..

’ Dr. Geome T. Barker,Dental Surgeon,
No. 1111 Arch street, is now prepared to perform the
most dellcaio and difficult operations upon the teeth and
surrounding organs, in tho most scientific and satisfac
tory manner. . Dr. Barker is a most successful practi
tioner, and is a gentleman of great personal popularity.
: Iron-'clad Rebels.— -Colonel Tucker has
devised a new mode of punishment for refractory- rebels
at Camp Douglas, Chicago. It is an Iron collar, which
locks around the neck of Use offender like a haudeuff, to
which is attached a bar of iron running down the back,

“ I Don’t. See It.”—Lord STelßon is un
doubtedly the author of this slang phrase. At the cele
brated naval battle of Copenhagen, Nelson, .who. was de
tiimined to continue tho fight, but whose attention had
been called to a signal of the commanding officer to;
cease hosiiJities, placed his hand over his good eye, and.
prelending to look with bis blind one, said,, “ I don’t see:
it,'’.and at once ordered a brisk renewal of the 1 engage-"
ment. This expression Is never used by those who visit"
