Thb Military Excitement.—Owing to the fact that the fifteenth of August is near at hand, at which Ume the bounty money to those who enlist wilt be cut off, the business o! recruiting becomes more brisk each day. andwlll continue to do so until after that "pe riod. The first 800,000 volunteers oalled for by the Pre sident will undoubtedly be ready by that time, at least, the quotaoeslgned to Philadelphia. Those accepted un der the second call are progressing finely, and, if there be no falling off, a draft will probably be unnecessary in this city. The prospects of the old regiments appear to be brightening up. Lieut. Col. Buff has been appelated mustering officer and disbursing ageDt, and hereafter the recruiting officers *ill not be obliged to send their men to Harrisburg, This also avoids the deiay in the pay ment of the bounty, as all regiments are now upon the same fooling. It is Important that the regiments in ser vice should be filled first, and there is now no reaon why the enlistments in them should not bo as rapid as in the new organisations. Out of the 600,000 men asked for by,the Government, the State oi Pennsylvania will bo required to fnrnish 92,841, besides helping to fill up the old regiments. Orders having been received for the formation of an other regiment for the war, Colonel Charles, B. Doran oalled a meeting of the company officers yesterday morn ing, when they reported 489 men ready to be mustered Uto service. This regiment wilt be one of the flretreedy to take the field. 7be lieutenant colonelcy of this regi ment has been tendered Lieutenant Colonel Robert ME. McOlU’ e, of the Fourth Pennsylvania Reserves, wlfo is now in the city Both Colonel Qoran and Lieut. Ooionel McClure have seen service in the field, and are fully competent. Becrntting offices for this regiment will be opened In various parts ot the city. Ooionel Doran was formerly cotonel of thoiath Virginia Yoluntuers. The 113th Begiment has also been accepted by'the Governor. ' : The subscriptions at the Oorn Exchange Association rooms, in afl of their regiment, have reached the sum of •bont 824,000- ’ The regiment will probably be full this •week, as about two-thirds of the men have already been sworn in. The camo grounds, on Indian Queen Lane, Were visited on Sunday by several hundred persons. In the afternoon there was divine Bervlce, under the au spices ef Samuel L Ward and James Barratt, Jr.; at which the Bev. William R McNeill and the Rev. Mr. McDonnell officiated. The former gentleman delivered a most impressive and patriotic address. •- Despatches have been received from Harrisburg stating that troops are pouting in by thousands, and enough men had been raised to organize fifteen regiments last evening. These, together with those now forming in this city, will fill our quota under the first .call for 300,090 volunteers. Regiments completely organized, aimed and equipped, will leave for the seat of war early next week. i The Medical Director of Phila delphia.—The office of the Medical Director, at No. 422 Walnut "street, is besieged night and day by those who have friends lying sick or wounded inonr various military hospitals. The duties of the Medical Director is to take charge of all vessels that arrive with Blok and wounded, and assign the patients to the different hospi tals.; The duties of this post are both arduous and im portant. The present Medical Director of Philadelphia,; Dr. W. 8. King, U. 8. A., is in every way qualified to discharge the duties devolving on him- Dr. King was born in Chester county, and entered the army in 1837, at the commencement of the Florida war, and was ordered at once to that State. After serving nearly three years in Florida, and participating in several Indian battles, he was ordered to the northern part of lowa, which was at that tithe Indian terriiery. Here he remained six years among the Winnebago Indians, acting in the capacity of, assistant surgeon to bur troops, and physician of the ■“•enebag 0 nation. At tno-vM-fats oucot the Mexican war, he was di reeted to •proceed'h.-'Fort IJ '7r«nworth, to accompany General Kearney in his expedition toiroq—m —,— _ subsequently was ordered to Mexico, and placed on duty in the hospitals at Vera Urnz, where he remained until the dose of the war and the final e vacnatibn of the coua try, he being the last medical officer to leave. On arriv ing at New Fork by sea with troops, he was detailed to proceed with the 2d United States Infantry under Gene ral Blley, Ufa Gape Horn to California. ' After serving in California six years in the various In dian expeditions with United States troops, and travers ing the greater portion of that country, he was ordered to the Atlantic board to fill a poet at Fort Moultrie, in Charleston harbor. He was stationed here aboutoightsen months, and upon receiving his promotion to a surgeoncy was ordered to Texas, and alter a residence of three years on the Bio Grande he was ordered to New Mexico, where he remained until the breaking ent sf the present rebel lion. At his own request he was reieved from duty on the frontier and ordered again to the East.' Arriving in 'Washington at the time General McDowell wastorganiz ing his army, he was assigned to.dnty as Medical Birec tor and was present at the battle of Ball Ban, and came off the field with that General. He was next assigned to duty as Medical Director to General Banks’ column, where he remained until a few weeks since. General Banks, being temporarily absent, Dr. King volunteered and was present at tt e battle of Winchester, and In all tbe operations of General Banka’ corps in the valley of Virginia. It will be seen from this brief review that out of a service of twenty-five years, twenty-two of It have been spent on the extreme frontier. We think that Dr- King has fairly corned the Important post he now fills. TheVoluntber t subscriptions yesterday to for voiunieeis was as follow? E. 0.

There was ope car which was- detached from the rest. The inmates supposed that the engineer was only switch ing off and taking on more earn, after which be would return and take them in order. Just as they were mov ing off our informant observed that each door of the car was guarded by policemen, and that heads of individuals' were protruded from the windows with anxious 'countenances towards the departing train. This car contained a lot of o*i,<uwi o rusto. who expected to go on toHow York and take the steam ers which left yesterday for Europe. It seems that a Government agent, who thoroughly understands his Business, had told all.wbo expected to sail for Europe to repair lo a particular car, aud bad. thus been able to make bis selections with ease. After having been thus separated they were detained..;There is but little chance for runawai *, but those who wish to go from one State or county to anather with honest Intentions will not have the ‘least difficulty. A man who would cowardly sneak away should not be trusted at any time. A High Compliment.— Major Gene ral McClcllsn baa forwarded the following gratefnl-ac- Snowledgment to the Ladies’ Aid Association of this cfty HsadQoabtbrs Army op ths Potomac, July 31,1802. We dartre to ray to oil whom it may concern, that the noble work of the Ladles’ Aid Association of Philadel phia, in supplying our army with comfort* for the suffer ing and the Bick, is worthy of ali praise. Their labors hare been continuous, energetic, and to a very large amount. It has been a most gratefal serrico to those who are aided—is sppreciated,'and ahonld bo encouraged by all officers. And the solicitude of friends at home may be greatly relieved by knowing that life itself is often preserved by these unrewarded elTorts, Mrs. Harris is their efficient secretary. We tommend her and the asso ciation she represents to all who care for these brave men, and to the patronage of the Christian and patriotfe of onr entire country. GEO. B. MoOLELLAtf, Major General, TJ. S. A. Work fob All.—At the present time, hen such urg< nt calls are made by tbe country for vo lunteers, no man need be out of employment who has strength enongh i o shoulder a knapsack or lift a market. 'Wheir thousands of the bravest and beat men of our Commonwealth hare cheerfully left lucrative situations and responsible positions, and taken op arms for the ■afety and honor of our country and onr flag, how humili ating to bear strong, hearty men complain of their mis fortune inhaying no-employment! There Is a great work for every man to perform, ana that is, to aid in the preservaiionof the noble institutions handed down to us hr our Bevi lntionury sires—-and to rescue odr flag, the emblem of liberty in every part of the civilized World, from the hands of traitors cursed alike by God and man. Then, fall in, men, and join the ranks ef those brave fel lows who are about to maroh to the relief of our friends who have suffered all the per Ub of a summer campaign in our country’a defence You will then have the cheer ing and comforting assurance of standing where duty calls, and future generations will bless your memory.* r The Passport Order The Secre tary of War’s i ecent order preventing persons who are liable to be drafted from leaving the country does not suit a certain portion of our people, whose sympathies are with Jeff Saris & Co., and who are always ready to etu fctrran the Oort rnment by circulating false reports to intimidate the people. They have distorted the late order of the War Department in various ways, some of which are ridiculously snMime. It is stated that nobody could go to Canada without a passport, and that whoever ap plied fsr such a document would be obliged to pay the Sub-Treasurer fifty ante, or some other,adequate remu neration. v.. Tbe order j» not intended to Interfere with parties tra velling either t n husinees of pleasure, but it is to prevent person* from sbfrltiog a duty they oweto the Government whlob has prolcoted them thus far, and which now ex pects a return for that protection when tbe country is in danger. ' Seamen ra the American Navy.— No difficulty whatever has been : experienced in supply ing the complement of seamen of the United States war ships More able-bodied seamen at the present time ate offering than are required by the authorities at the various naval rindczvone. This arises-from the fact that Immense turns are made by the capture of prizes. A large jiumberof common sailors have, since, the war commenced, received upwards of three thousand'dollara in prize money, and but comparatively few who have not made a cot siderable sum In the Bame way These circumstances havo drawn sailors from all quarters to enlist in our nary. Aliens in Goyernment Works.— An order against employing aliens in the navy yards and Government works hag been in force for .several years, and when the fact of an employee being an alien be comes known, bis discharge must follow, as a matter of course. The significance of this order becomes appa rent, when we see the great rush that is made to the offices of foreign consuls for protection papers as soon as a <3 raft lfl ord fcr* d. The sa who have bees vdti&ft aad eervlngtbe Government in different capacities fit many jeare,wUi lose their situations by claiming protection as ollena.

Adjourned. ‘ The New Chestnut-street Theatre. —The hew theatre'that is to be bnilt on Chestnut street,: as was stated in The Frets a short time since, will be. -one of the finest in the country. It will have a frontage ■2* v-uit and a depth of one hundred and flfty. The toading arcW&^-.. tQr ., 0 , bgtj, tUa exterior and interior will be tbo Roman Tha aaaieo . rinm will comprise a capacious p!irfuietm, m,v— rise of two steps from the street, and above this will be an [elegant dress circle with private and prosoonium boxes, Bnrmonnted by a family circle. There will be no no gallery or amphitheatre. The decorations of the anditonnm will he chastely brilliant—being entirely white, gold, and crimson. The house will be lighted principally by a splendid crystal chandelier. The stage will be sixty feet wide by sixty-four feet deip; the curtain opening at the proscenium betng twenty seven feet, with a height of forty foot ot tbe proscenium. But it is on the stage itself thatthe'greatest improvement will be made. There wnt-bo ample height and depth to take entire sets of scenes up, or to .int them aNtyoeuro, while the stage will be so constructed os to enable nearly the whole of ittobe sunk to a great depth, in addition to the ordinary traps and mechanical contrivances, thus af fording facilities for scenic effects which no other es tablishment on this side of the Atlantic possesses. The arrangements for lighting the stage, and their perfect' control, will also be entirely noTel, and woi thily replace tbe-chmuy end unsatisfactory method now in general theatrical use. Astronomical.—To- day the rings of Saturn will again be seen, having been wholly invisible, except through the moat powerful telescopes, nearly three months. In the course of the last eight months these rings have twice disappeared, the first time, from November 23 to January 31, in consequence of their edge being tamed towards the earth, and the second time, or since May, 17th, their unillumihated side. Through poweiful telescopes the rings at the first dis appearance could, however, be seenjas a straight line, and at the second the ansae or extremities were still visible. During these interesting periods the appearance of Batnro and its rings has . been carefully watched by sstronc-mere, and In a communication to the London Astronomical Society! at its last meeting, that excellent observer, Bev. W. B. Dawes, says: «Nothing.*l imagine, can more fully prove the almost inconceivable thinnest of the rings than the absence : of all perceptible shadow. Had it even the leaat thicknoa, which has ever been ascribed to it, (forty miles, by Prof. Bond, Director of Harvard College Observatory, Cambridge, TJ. 8,) it would he sufficient to produce a total eclipse of the sun on Eaturn'B equator, and it would subtend an anglemore than donblo ihat subtended by the disk of the sun as seen from Saturn.” Colored Persons in B ailroad Cars. —A petition, lignedby prominent colored persons, asking that they might be allowed the privilege of riding in the pasEeuger railway cars, was recently forwarded to the Board of Presidents of,, the different wards. The Board postponed the consideration of the petition ..until the meeting in December. Wo now learn that at. this meet ing a proposition will be made to place oh the different roads a certain number of cars, in which colored persons may ride, and also any others who wish. By eo doing, those who hare objection to riding with colored persons can avoid it* It is proposed to have about every fourth car devoted to this par pose. The Worm Nuisance.—The present summer has been peculiarly fatal to tho.elm trees in this and other cities. Some years ago they were annually assailed by bugs, which destroyed all the foliaga but did not affect the vitality of the tree. Occasionally trees may now be found stripped of their leaves; but there is another more irsidioua fee to the elm than the leaf bug: Itisasortof curculio, which penetrates the roots and entirely destroys the tree when It is in fall foliage. Some of the elms, judging from the appearance pf the leaves, Beam: to he dead. None of the other varieties of trees are affected in the same way. Quite Commendable.— -When our brave sick and wounded soldiers arrived at Gray’a-Ferry wharf, on Sunday afternoon, Messrs. Benners k Dow ling, whose establishment is . located near the Baltimore Railroad depot, promptly and patriotically furnished no less than seventy teams, to; convey the soldiers to the hospital. The train of carriages was under the super ■vlaion of Mr. Bcamer, who performed the patriotic duty in an admirable manner. ' Mortality Record.—During the past week the number of interments in this city was 446, being an increase of 76 over the previous week, and an in crease of 26 over ihe same period last year. Of the whole number, 176 were adults, and 270 children; 164 being under one year of age ; >2sl* were, males; 195 females, 147 boys,.and 123 girls. The greatest number of deaths oc curred in the Nineteenth watd, being 34, and the small est number in the Ninth, where only 2 are reported. Bent to the Penitentiary.—A few flayi since, ft man named H. James was brought to this city by toe sheriff of Beading, aad consigned to the Eastern Penitentiary to serve a term of one year and three months, having. been convicted of committing burglaries in that city. . An Excursion to the Sea-shore.— The Young Mon’s Christian Association . will take a number of convalesce it aick and wounded soldiers on their excursion te Atlantic Olty. which will take,place on Thursday, the 14th inst. This promises to be, the most delightful excursion of the season. : Highway Bobbery. Yesterday morning, & mas Damed,.Gebrge Oplg!n -'was arrested and taken before the charge of high way robbery. He ls alleged to heM a man while another robbed him of a check for fifty dollars and bosqs * )c«se change. Tbe accused was committed) in default of* $l,OOO bail, to answer at court. Reckless Driving.—The good peo pie of Germantown have been greatly annoyed, on Sun day afternoons, by parties of fasfcyotmg men driving through their streets at a furious rate, to the great dan ger of thoße .who happen to be croesiog the streets at the* time. On Sunday last, two of these fast young mm were arrested by the officers and held to answer the charge.' The Canine War.—During last week one - hundred and fifty-eight unmuzzled canines were captured in ibis city, by Captain Jim Francis and bis dog; detectives. Of the whole number only twelve were re- : deemed; .the remainder suffered the extreme penalty.of the law. Batteau Adrift.—At an early hour yesterday morning, the harbor police found a batteau adrift in the Delaware, off Noble* street wharf. Tbe boat wfto about fourteen feet in length, and was painted flesh color, with blue gunwhale and a red bottom inside. - Railroad Accident.-—A lad named Dennis O’Donnell, aged 17 years, had his right foot cut off, by a railroad car running over it, on Saturday even-: ing. The sufferer was admitted to tbe Pennsylvania Hospital. Slight Pire.— Yesterday morning, about 9 o’clock, an alarm of fire was created by the partial burning of tbe roof of the dweilingoccupledby Mrs. BrowD, No :708 Front street, above Coatee.' -The damage done was trifling. Ministerial.— Rev. Robert Taylor, of Warren, Pennsylvania, has accepted a call to the pas toral charge of a Presbyterian Church in this city. He will enter upon bis duties at an early date. dGlmJ"Burh;ag e d‘*^ £ years, was admitted ltd the .hospital yesterday afternoon with bis hand crashed by the crank of a hoisting ma chine, in Upper Merlon township, Montgomery county. THE PROPORTION "OF LOSSES IN THE ARMY BY DISEASE, FIGHTING, Ad.—The following is an extract from a report to the.Saqitary Commission, by its authority, Mr. E. B. Elliott which is howlin press: Since one hundred and four (104,4) out of every thousand men (officers.and privates together) in,the .entire army, is the constant proportion of tick’, it follows; that, to se cure in the field a constant force of five hundred thousand (600,000) effective (or healthy and aide) men, the nation must coostantly maintain; in . hospitals or elsewhere, an additional force of flity-elghttbousand (58,000) sick men, making the entire force maintained, both sick and.effec tive, to consist of five hundred and fifty, eight thousand (558,000) men; four per cent, or twenty-two thonsand'of this entire force would be commissioned officers, and: ninety-six per cent, or 636,000 eoilited men. And since to .supply'continuous losses in the ranks of the enlisted men,* other than losses from extirpation of service re quires recruits at tbe annual rate of 229 per 1,000 enlisted met), It follows, that fo • keep the ranks of these 536,000 enlisted men constantly full, will requireannualli 123,000 recruits, 29,000 of these recruits being demanded to snp ply tho'ennnal loss occaiioned by death y 64,000, the loss arising from discharge from service, mainly from disa bility ; 27,000 for excess ordeeertions over returns of de striers to duty; 7,000 missing in action, not subsequent ly otherwise accounted for, and 6.000, tlie loss from other causes. ' " FATAL ATTEMPT TO ESCAPE FROM PRISON. —About nine o’clock, on Saturday night, one of the pri soners at the Gratiot, street prison was fatally shot while recklessly persisting in an attempt to escape. The de dessed was Charles Woodward, of Saline county, Mo. From the front basement ha passed through an apperture In a partition to the cellar beneath the dining room at the rear of the building. In the cellar wabformetly a window which has rocently been walled up with brick. The mor tar was still loose, and, with a knife, Woodward readily and almost noiselessly removod enough bricks to leave a large through which to make egress.
