Thirteenth, in the First ward. It seems that she was in the act of reaching for something behind the ... stove,: in the kitchen, when her clothing caught on the spout of a'kettje 'filled with boiling water. It was oVerturned in consequence, and Mrs. Sinex was !Mockingly scalded on her neck, body, and arms. Medical aid was speedily summoned. Though her injuries are severe and painful, yet she is not con , aidered in a dangerous condition. A similar accident happenedin the same neighbor hood, about the same time. A little boy had4ust gone into his home, on Twelfth street, below Ells worth, and seating I;iinsell in front of the stove, put bis'ket up to the hearth to warm them. His grand mother' about the same moment, put a large boiler of icalcling water on the floor near by. Presently the lad, in getting up from the chair, stepped into the boiler, and in an• instant the skin; from his knee downward, was peeled off:' He Suffered great agony. REDEMPTION • OP- • POSTAGE STAMPS.— / Peetinaster Walborrigivel . notice that, on and after next.Plonday, postage stamps which have been used as currency will be received at the post office and - registered for redemption. The time for making application is limited to thirty days, after which the Postmaster General. warns all people not to .use postage stamps for currency : if they do, it must be at their own risk. The postmaster of this city states that but one deposit of stamps will be allowed by or received from the same party, firm, or association. ;The parcels as received will be numbered regularly, . 'and a check or receipt, with a• corresponding number and name thereon, given to the applicant. When payments are ready to he made the public will be notified thereof by notice posted in the ave nue of the post office of the numbers ready for de livery, when the holders thereof may receive their payments in Government notes or postage currency, on surrendering the receipts held by them. It being understood that no payments are, to be made until after the expiration of the thirty days. Only such postage stamps as have been in actual -Circulation as currency will be redeemed. The Postmaster is authorized by the Postmaster General, whenever he may deem it expedient for the Interest of the Department, to require an affida vit from any applicant for the redemption of postage Stamps that he obtained the said stamps honestly and legitimately, and that they have never been used on letters or cleansed after such use. THE NEXT COUNCILI3.—On joint ballot; it appears that the Democratic party will have a ma ority in the next Councils, if Mr. Duffield is not re- N.-keted. The expulsion of Mr. Duffield exalted the .dopes of nuu....01 1a small office-holders who are dependent upon the City-uut.....11. _for political crumbs. The precedent having been made; mass. no reason to suppose that if it be found necessary to turn out another Republican member, in order to secure a Democratic majority, it will be done with as much haste, and with as little decency, as in the case of Mr. D uffield. The Fifth-ward difficulty has not yet been settled. The Democrats are confident that the member of Common Council elected from that ward will secure his seat. It will be remem bered that the sheriffls proclamation did not call for an eleetion In that ward. TESTIMONIALTO A WORTHY beautiful gold medal is being ManUfactured in this city, for presentation to the railroad engineer, who so heroically saved, the lives of a large number of pissengers on the Allegheny mountains, last No vember.

Thatthe Philadelphia Associates of this Sanitary Commission hate learned, with the deep est sorrow, the death - Of their late most faithful stir perinlendent, Plattr Jr., Esq., who fell A Nictira to dihefise contracted on the battle-fields of Maryland in the service of the. Commission, and in the discharge of the highest duties of humanity and patriotism.' • . Reso(vcd, That the Associates desire to record their high appreciation of the character of Mr. Platt, awl of hie invaluable labors in the cause of the Sanitary Commission. Accepting the invitation of the commit:executiveotee, in June last, to undertake the superintendence of the business of the Philadelphia agency, Mr. Platt devoted all the force of a highly - energetic, though gentle character, to the discharge of the du ties of his post. Giving his whole time, and ap plying remarkable vigor to the business of the agency, he soon brought it to a state of efficiency not previously reached, while his judicious and effective applications to the friends of the Commis sion brought its claims under general notice in Philadelphia, and rapidly filled its treasury, so that the contributions which, on his entering on his office, in June last, were but eight thousand dollars, had at the time of his death, in' November, ex ceeded the suns of forty thousand dollars, an in= crease which .the associates ascribe almost wholly to the labors of Mr. Platt, and of an agent of his own designation. All the services of Mr. Platt were rendercd.gra tuitously. When the battles in Maryland were Im pending, in September last, Mr. Platt hastened to Washington, and volunteered to take charge of a Wagon train of hospital stores, for use in the field. Visiting and supplying the hospitals at Rockville; Frederick; and Middletown, and reinforced with other supplies, forwarded by the Commission, he left Middletown at eleven o'clock at night, on the 17th of September, and proceeded with his train, of 'wagons to Boonsborough, and thence to Keedysville; and arrived at the headquarters of the army at nine o'clock the next morning. his own modest official report of his services o.nits mention of the fact that; as he came within sound of the cannon, he quickened his speed, driving the leading wagon himself, and when darkness threatened to delay the train he left it and walked in advance, carrying a lantern, and compelling the reluctant drivers to follow. The supplies of the Commission thus brought to the battle-field by Mr. Platt anticipated those for- warded by the Government, and were at once dis tributed by the medical director and surgeons of the anny,•to the unspeakable relief of the sufferers. But Mr. Platt's earnestness was not satisfied with mere direction and s.upervision. On the 20th Septem ber, as the ambulances appeared bringing the suffer ers from the bloody battle-field of Antietam; but un accompanied by competent assistance for their 're moval, Mr. Platt gave himself up for a long time tq this arduous service, carrying the wounded in his arms to places of shelter, and there rendering them the tenderest offices of a nurse. Thus engrossed, he overteaked himself, and, through fatigue and expo: sure, contracted the disease which, on the 22d No vember, brought to a close, in his 37th year, his short but well-spent life. - To those who knew and loved him in the relations of private life, and particularly as an active member of the church, which he adorned by a consistent Christian conversation, no public record is needed of his modest virtues. But as he fell in the service of his country—a willing offering in the noblest cause—his life has become part of his public history; and it is, therefore, ' • • • - Resolved, That the Philadelphia Associates of the Sanitary Commission desire to perpetuate their esti mate of the services and worth of their late friend and officer by some enduring memorial, and they, therefore, most respectfully request that the fatuity of Mr. Platt,•and the vestry of St. Thomas' Church, Whitemarsh, (of which lie was warden,) to allow them to erect in that church a mural tablet to his memory. - Resolved, That the foregoing resolutions be com municated to the family of kir. Platt, and to the ves try of St. Thomas'. Ohurch,'lvith the assurance of the most sincere sympathy of the Associates in their loss. Resolved, That the foregoing resolutions be pub lished.

Elerton and loca ted at Mount Airy, in the Twenty-second ward, was slightly Injured by fire. H E P POLICE. Professional Gambling. Some years since we attended professionally an exciting and interesting debate on the subject of gambling befiVieh Green,- the reformed gambler* and Mr. Freeman, '®f South Carolina. ,The debate took place in the lecture, zoom of.e: the' old'Ohinese Museum building, and continued for three evenings consecutively. Mr. Freeman defended gambling, and by the power and beauty of language elegantly expressed he fairly captivated his audience. Mr. Green depended upon the audience for a verdict qy explaining in a logical and forcible manner the many tricks and devices resorted to by gamblers, generally, to dupe all who were allured by them into their gilded saloons. Recently, in a conversation with a young man who had fought . the " tiger" until he could do so no longer, he stated, among many of .the unfair tricks which gamblers . often 'resorted to, particularly in the southwestern part of the country, are the following : Marked cards, said he, are manufactured to exactly imitate the fair-playing cards in common use, and so ingenious are the devices that it is all but impossible for any hut the initiated to detect the difference. One establishment in New York manuTactures fifty different styles of these advantage cards, by which the color, size, and suite are told, after some prac tice, as well by the backs as by the faces. They are adapted to bluff or poker, all-fours, seven-up, euchre, cribbage, whist, 100, and all other games where knowing just what an opponent has in his hand would cause the winning of the game. The prices of these cheating implements vary with the style. The common sort are sold for six dollars per dozen. Marked strippers, containing all the advantages of marked cards and strippers, are put at ten dollars per dozen. T'ransparent cards are also manufactured, by which the gambler, who will not expose his own hand, sees what cards his adversary has through the backs. Our informant has seen no less than eight different ways of marking on the common "star-backed' , cards. There is a certain character in the right-hand corner, placed in five different positions, to denote the ace, king, queen, jack, and ten. Another cha racter in the same position denotes the nine, eight, seven, six.' five ; and still another, the four, tray, and duce. These characters are - part of the star, and, must be noticed as differing from any other part of the card. For suite these are four charac ters, differently shaped, one for each suite, found in the left-hand corner, the marks being at both ends. Sometimes, however, the marks for size and suite are placed in the same corner. In marked striped back cards the size is told by the position of the stripe running out at the right-hand corner, high cards being denoted by a spread of the stripes ;in low ones the stripe is contracted. The suite is told by the spread between the bare on the left-hand cor ner. In some marked cards, with fancy backs, the suite and size are denoted bileaves, flourishes, &c. It Is very rare that the marks are placed lower than a quarter length of the card on the side, yet some are found to be in the centre. We might particularize further, but as the marks vary with the style of the back it would be impossible to make the explana• tionintelligible to the reader. rrofeseional sharpers know where to obtain the. advantage cards. Many have peculiar marks .of , their own, which they have the manufacturer to pub upon the backs of the cards they order. The mae! lecturers of marked cards are at all tunes in' league . . with the gamblers. , Thief Sketch of , The individuareamus himself the Wesiey Green, who has been practising-ilie.-denn0....4.0 game on l'resident Lincoln, Is known in Philadelphia RS a most consummate scoundrel. The following is a brief history of him : Early in the year 1852, he made his appearance in this city, and preached in a number of Methodist churchea. Great crowds of people flocked to hear him. lie was eloquent. At that time he resided in Poplar street. He gave out that he was the confidential agent of the Post master General of the United States, and had 'a large number of o ffi ces ' to ' 'give out. He in duced many a young man, belonging tolhe . Metho dist church, to give up their clerkships and accept Of an office ifs the postal department, in almost every part of•ths country, even as far as California. They did • sd;:but just previous' to going. on their tour he exacted a bonus from each of them,•in sums; ranging from $26 to $6O, and, in one or two instances, he received as high as a'hundred. As the parties were ready to start; having relinquished their Wife tions; sold out their household goods in some in stances, he suddenly disappeared: Alarge number of highly ., respectable young men were thus duped. Information was left at the police marshal's office, and Detective Blackburn (now fire marshal) pro ceeded to Baltimore, and, with Officer .Zell of that city, arrested the fugitive in his room, at Barnum's Hotel. When he saw the officers he endeavored to secrete himself under the bed upon which his wife lay, having been taken suddenly sick. It was her, sickness that delayed Green in Baltimore longer than he intended to stay. He was brought to this city, was tried before the Hon. Judge Kelley, noW' 'member of Congress from the Fourth district l'enna. The charge against him was obtaining;nioney un-• der false pretences. He plead his own cause, and, though a very smart man naturally, and an excellent scholar, he was convicted on May 6th, 1862. On the day he was called up for sentence he made an ell* fluent appeal to Judge Kelley in mitigation of punish ment. He was tried on two bills; . and Was sentenced` to twelve months' on one, and nine months °lithe other. He served his time out in the Eastern.Paid tentiary. While in Philadelphia, this fellow obtAin ed two gold watches from .Messrs. stoddart & son, at Third and Market streets. One of these was found at a pawn shop in Baltimore, and the other in possession of his wife. The watches were returned to the owners. About two years ago he was arrest ed by Detective Calananin the La Pierre House, on Broad street; but there being nothing against him p a rticularly, he was let off upon a solemn promise to leave the city. He is known in the police records of Philadelphia as J. Wesley Green, alias Leonard Wil son, alias Benjamin Grier , by which names he .is known in other localities besides Philadelphia. White, the Counterfeiter. United States Matshal John Jenkins arrived in this city, from New York, last evening, bringing with him information that will be gratifying to bank officers particularly, that White the celebrated counterfeiter, who was recently arrested in that city, had ten true bills found against him yesterday. His trial is fixed for an early day. • Selziare of The canal boat Thomas F. Burns, commanded by Captain Joseph Burns, was taken to the State maga zine, near the banks of the Schuylkill, in the First ward, yesterday morning, having been seized, by order of Chief Ruggles, for having powder stored oa board of it. The boat arrived at the Schuylkill canal locks on Sunday last, and was detained there by the ice, which , happened to be freely made about that time. The powder was enclosed in tin canisters, 'each holding twenty-five pounds; there were 3,109,' all told, weighing in the gross 77,725 pounds; valtied "in all'at $13,990. There is a very stringent law rela tive to the storage of powder, or bringing the expic. sive article within the city limits. It is confiscated bylaw, Q fine of $6OO is also imposed upon the Owner of any powder, upon conviction, for violating' the act of Assembly in such case made isnd,provided., The revenue derived from .the .of: powder thus r,onflecated accrues to the benefit of the Association for the Relief of Disabled Firemen. At the present time, including that seized as above stated, there are about one hundred and twenty-five tons of powder in the State magazine. The people of this city, esperciallY thine retilding in the southern, part thereof, and others, ladies, gentlemen, and fami lies, fond of taking a drive on pleasant summer after, noons, in the rural section of the First ward, peti tioned the State authorities to remove the magazine: A bill was framed to this effect;it passed one bcanoli of the Legislature, but it was never reached in the other branch. An effort will be made early in the approaching legislative session to have the magazine removed to a more distant place from the built-up portion of the oat. • " • [Before ➢lr. Alderman Plankinten.: Larceny of -a Padlock. George. H. Curtin, a - lad, was arraignedd - yesterday morning on the charge - of stealing a padlock from' one of the stalls in the Spring Garden market-house on the previous evening. For some time past farmers and butchers have missed sundry things from the stalls after having carefully locked them. It is not known whether the accused figured in any of these transactions or not. In the present Instance, a pad-:, lock that had been broken from a stall was found in his possession. He was required to enter bail in thei sum of WO to answer atoourt. [l3efore Mr. Alderman Kennedy.) Cruelty to Animals. • Samuel Niece was arraigned on the charge of cru elty to animals. He was taken into custody by one of the River and Harbor Police, on Front street, above Noble, for beating a mule in a most unmerciful man ner with a heavy stick. The animal appeared to be, stubborn, and the accused seemed to lay on the blows heavy and fast, without rhyme or reason. The ver was fined the usual penalty. LEGAL INTELLIGENCE.

Judge Read was ealled - to the stand, and testified that he was formerly associated with Mr. Bessie as , counsel in the case, and continued so until he went on the Supreme Bench; that he saw the two notes sued.on in the original suit, and that he examined them caref•illy, as was his professional habit, where' papers were connected with a case, and saw no pencil marks on them; if there had been, he be lieved he would have seen-them. Mr. Rawle then offered to read a commission to' South Carolina, issued by defendant, and in re sponse to defendant's counsel, stated that the object. was to show the• birthplace of the plaintiff; and the nature and extent of his business in Charleston. • This was objected as not rebutting anything.' proved in defendant's - ea:ie. Judge Thompson held that the birthplace and! business of the plaintiff were entirely immaterial facts, but that his possession- of money prior. to and about the time of the loan was material. The commission was then withdrawn for the pur- Pose of allowing counsel for the plaintiff opportus • nity to select such carts of the commission as they' wished to offer. • . After this had been done, counsel for defence with.: drew their objection, and the entire commission was . read, showing that the _plaintiff had been doing a; prosperous business in Charleston before leaving for the North. Other witnesses testified to the same effect. For the purpose of proving that Douglass was possessed of money,.and that Zr. Mitchell was well acquainted with him, Isaac Rodgers was called. He testified that he had known Douglass since 1818, • when he came from Charleston, .and livediin witness's house. The rest of his testimony is important, and we give it in his own words. I remember Mr. Mitchell coining to my house.to see Mr. Douglass ; he nose in the habitof coming: there; 18-19 he came for ice cream, and Douglass passed in, and he called to him, and I went out and told Douglass a gentleman wished to see him ; he came back, and nay talked together; I did not stay in the room •, when Douglass came out I went in, and: Mr. Mitchell told me that Douglass was his barber A few weeks after Douglass bought the Ronaldson street house, and Judge Hare fixed the title for him, he asked me if 1 knew good broker where he could get some money changed,• I told him yes, and went with him in Third street above Chestnut ; we went in and a gentleman asked how much he wanted to 'get changed he said two thousand dollars; they got talking about the discount, and he - agreed to give it; he had a red silk handkerchief with ai roll of notes in it, and he rolled them off, and the gentleman counted it in three piles; he then saki: here is $2,000, but I cannot change-it at that rate for you ; Douglass wouldn't agree to give him what he wanted, and lie took the money up, and we went home; two weeks afterwards I went up into the garret; Douglass' door was open, and he called Me in ,• at that time he had a brown bag,. sitting up on end, and full of money ; I se* that bag in court at . the last time; I remember seeing the red silk hand kerchief in court; in 1854, early in the spring, I had, occasion to borrow $BOO, and went to see Mitchell ; he said lie hadn't as small a sum as that, and asked: me if I knew Douglass, and said he had money, why didn't I getit from-him ; I didnYtthink of Douglass having money at the time or I shouldn't have gone' to him ; he said that Douglass had some money, and he would try to get it for me ; that he was a pretty clever fellow ;. I borrowed the $6OO from Mr. Bengali. • George W. Camblos, broker, Third street, testified to changing some $2,000, in South Carolina bank notes, into gold, for Douglass, in 1847 or '4B, and to. subsequently changing various sums, ranging from' $2OO to . $6OO, into gold for him. The cashier of Adams' Express Company testified •• to paying drafts in favor of Mrs. Douglass, drawn: by the California Company, during 750 and '6l, to the, amount of nearly $4,000. Deposits, of large amounts, during these years, in the Western Saving Fund and Bank of North Ame rica, by Mrs. Douglass, were also proven. It was also testified that Mr. Mitchell was in the habit of being shaved at the barber-shop of Wills &Langdon, Fourth street, near Walnut, where Mr. Douglass was employed, and by him. John C. Mitchell, the.cousin of Mrs. Mitchell, tes - titled that he knew Mr. Douglass, and recollected . having transacted business for him while he wits away in California. Among other things, he invest ed the sum of $1,600 in his.own mortgage on property in West Philadelphia to a third party, and assigned to . Mr. Douglass the drawing of a werof attorney money for him in two growl rents. Soon a erilV.' Douglass' return from California he demanded the amount• of the mortgage, and Mr. Mitchell itrune . diately paid him. ....;Xeter Glascow-testified to the 'sale of. the Ronald-'• - ston4treet house:sto Mr: Douglass; and the payment - Alf - the' purchase money, partly in cash, and the ba lance in a judgment - note, - which was afterwards . paid off. The copy of the • defaasition of Peter Basset was here called for. by Mr. Eawle, and. Mr. •McMurtriei • replied that they would 'produce it when proof was made of the loss of the original. This is one of the papers that were in the tin box, and proof wsa made of the fact. Counsel for the defence then de4 mended that the plaintiff.ha pit on the stand to sho' that it was not in his possession. Mr. Douglass accordingly took the stand, and promptly denied posseision of the lost document and all knowledge of the lost box. When asked where he was in the summer of 1860; Mr. Douglass became very much affected, and stated that . he was in the Eastern Penitentiary, under sentence for perjury, of which, he said, he - was unjustly convicted, through the efforts of parties engaged in the present ease and others, - ' - Alexander Wilson, for more than twenty years connected with the Walnut-street Theatre, in the capacity of machinist, was called, and testified that he had known Douglass-since 1852, and had sold him a farm in December of that year, through Dr. Horner. for $1,200. When he received the money from Dr. H., it was" tied up in 'a reiPsilk handkerchief. Dou glass was not there. The witness saw thl, notes in suit soon after Douglass got possession of - the farm.' Douglass wished him to purchase a farm near Cam-. den for hint, -for $4,000, and on the , witness i not knowing where the money was to conieTroin, telling him that' he was afraid •he -would get -in a scrape, Douglass took out his pocket-book and exhibited. two notes; signed by Thomas S.: Mitchell, one for! $2,600 . and the other for $3;600; Douglass also ex ' hibited a letter signed by Mr. Mitchell, also saying: that he (Mr. Mitchell) was ready to settle for his. money whenever he (Douglass) wanted it. This was' in the year 1863. The testimony of Frank Williams, taken on the former trial, and who has - sinee died, was also read' in evidence. Mr. Williams was quite a wealthy; colored man, and his testimony was to the effect that Mr.. Thomas S.' Mitchell did' buainess Tor him. • Among other things, he had a farm to sell for him, the price demanded being $lO,OOO. Mr. Mitchell one• day told him that, if he would take less for it, he, thought he could sell it for 'him. Mr. Williams . in-, `quired who to, and, on Mr. Mitchell's telling him to a colored man he knew, he replied that that could not be, for he knew no colored man in this city had money enough at that time to pay for the 'farm.. Mr. Mitchell replied that there was a yellow man by: the name of Robert J. Douglaps who was quite well' off, and he (Mr. Mitchell) had then $6,000 of his in his possession. Mr. "Williams then agreed to take sB,ooo cash for the farm, but the matter went no further. The court adjourned - about 3 o'clock. Supreme Court of the United Stated, "Wash- in_ ,n, El ! C.
