A SUMMER'S DAY.—Yesterday upon one
of the muddiest corners of one of the muddiest streets
we saw a very sour and crusty old man talking with
a very sweet And generous-tempered-looking lad.
The cheeks and forehead of the one were tenderly
flushed with the delicate, glorious glow of youth,and
thoso of the other seared and wrinkled with the my;
riad imprints of time. That lovely stereoscopic pic
ture flashed by and vanished in an instant, resem
bling in the green gladness of its wintry gloom and
summer bloom the golden temperature of the day
itself, framing it in airy brightness. Y!terday was
a souvenir of summer, the remembrance of a happy
dream—the air one bloom of radiance, the blue and
misty skies, flecked and filmed with fleecy vapor,
blew like the breath of rosebuds over every quick
ened sense. Each happy countenance reflected the
happy day. Bean's of sunlight flashed on features
sparkling AR those beams themselves. The ludi
crous side of the picture was thatifurnished by lym
phatic looking old ladies and phlegmatic old,gentle
men, doleful damsels perspiring under the weight of
the third volume of some "Julia in Jeopardy," to be
returned to the circulating library, and foreigners
who had not yet been thoroughly acclimated. Just
as a splendid number of a newspaper is supposed to
eontain a small portion of everything, so does a splen
did day crowd into a few hours all varieties of natural
beauty, artificial
. grace, And ludicrous anomaly. Yes-,
terday was a subject of remark all over the city, and
was welcomed byfevery lover of" blue and gold edi
tions" of the weather.

The house receipts for the same period. were $106;
for support cases—infants whose board is paid by
parties outside—s37o. (Thin money is paid to the
mothers of the foundlings, because it is obtained
from the fathers, and not. because of their own mis
fortune.)
The treasurer, since last . meeting, paid into
the city treasury - $1,149.
A communication was received from the :function
Railroad, stating that they had-located their rail
road through the Almshouse property, alongside of
and adjacent to the ground now occupied by the
West Chester Railroad Company, and at a recent
meeting of the Board of Directors,. a resolution was
adopted that the engineer and secretary of the com
pany be authorized to make application in form to
the Board of Guardians to enter upon and take posses
sion of such'property, belonging to the city, as may
be necessary as right of way for the *construction of
the Junction Railroad, and to further arrange, if
possible, with said Board for such jury or board of
viewers as may be necessary to fix upon the value
of property so used,. and to perfect title to the rail
road comany. It is requested that a committee of
the Board of Guardians be appointed, with a view
to conference on the subject.
The communieatiiinivai referred to the Committee
on Farm, in connection with the president.
Mr. 'Whiten called attention to a growing evil
pointed out to him by the visitor of the Third dis
trict, that many children are buried where the ex
pense should be chargeable to other parties than thin
board. Many of these cases should receive the in
vestigation of the coroner.
Mr. Server said that the expense of burying a
child is about one dollar. If the coroner assumes
the responsibility the county will have to pay an
additional expense of fifteen or.twenty dollars.
Mr. Erety said that the subject was one about
which there should he no thought of expense, for
the public morals are concerned.
The matter was finally referred to a special com
mittee.
Mr. Dickinson submitted,. froth the Committee on
Manufactures, a report of the extension of the
water and gas-pipe on the premises. The amount
saved to the city by using pauper labor was $1,326.11
on - the usual charge for fdrnishing material and
doing work of this character. 1,656 feet water-pipe
were laid, 7 new tire-plugs_ placed in position, and.
406 feet vie-pipe added to the usual quantity.

Mr. Server offered the following:
Resolved, That in consideration of the newly
elected resident physicians having been exempt
from paying $lOO deposit money to treasurer of
board, that the treasurer be authorized to refund to
those already having paid the same, that no dis
tinction should exist relative thereto. Laid over.
The Board soon after adjourned.

THE POLICE.
[Before Mr. Alderman Bottler.)
Arrested on Suspicion.
At the hearing yesterday afternoon a man calling
himself Charles Wiener was arraigned before Alder
man Beitler. There was no specific charge against
him. But having been arrested, it was necessary to
give him a public hearing. Detective Taggert testi
fied that, on the night of December the ad, theapri
boner was arrested on the landing at Walnut street
just as he came from the New York boat. The offi
cers who made the arrest acted certainly in the most
bungling manner. They had evidently supposed the
stranger to be somebody else; and he was let oil' on
the same night. Early next morning a package of
counterfeit note.s, "Cuyler Bank" and' "South
bridge Bank." Massachusetts, amounting to five
hundred dollars, was found just at the spot where
he had been arrested the evening before. On Sun
-Orry-nlgart-lm-arrtred again from New York, and MIS
Taggert said that, although he had
nothing to publicly state at the present time, yet he
would like the prisoner held until Wednesday. -
The prisoner stated that when he was r ......ced he
had one hundred dollars in his n0r a,....e.- is money
bad been taken by - The prisoner said he
- would like to hate this money, as lie desire) to have
mummtr fl e a mat meals
to eat. The alderman ren
Would be furnished him. Wistun-ivas then taken
down stairs. Without some- an.planation, the arrest
"of 'Wisner may seem ra tLee,partaking of an outrage
more than an x tbl.ig - '6l - se. He was in the New York
Penitentiary tor a term of five years, and is only
known to some of the oldest and shrewdest officers
hiPhiladelplita. The prisoner is about fifty years of
age; . Pad three daughters who dance And sing in
lag Pr-beer and other concert saloons. He is regarded
as a dealer in. counterfeit notes, but was never
known to pass any of the spurious stuff. In his pri
vate business dealings,
he bears the reputation of
meeting his engagements in a fair and square manner.
[Before Ur. Alderman Welding.]
Juvenile Delinquents. • -
Five boys, giving the names of James Philips,
Hugh Philips, Frank Philips, John 14leCoomb, and •
Michael Irvin, were arraigned before the alderman
yesterday on the charge of breaking open a fruit and
candy stand near Sixth and Chestnut streets, on
Sunday afternoon. • These boys were ragged and
dirty. ' Some of them sold newspapers occasionally,
but they did not belong to the regular class .of news
boys who make a living at the profession. Oae-Or
the accused had already been in prison. They have
led a sort of Bohemian life in the streets, •alleys,
and bylilaces in our city..for some time past. Alder
man.Velding did not know whether or not they,
were beyond reformation: He gave them a lecture
on their evil habits, to all of which they seemed to
be entirely indifferent. After this talking to hesent
them•to the House.of Refuge.
(Before Mr. Alderman McMullen.)
Obstructing the Baltimore Railroad.
Three draymen, named Win. Hopkins, John An
derson, and John Sunning, were arraigned before
Alderman McMullen on the charge of obstructing
the Baltimore Railroad track, on Washington
avenue. They had their drays upon the track, and
would not get off when requested to do so. Besides
this, it is alleged, they tantalized the conductors of
the cars. The superintendent of the road had them
arrested, and they were put under hail. It may be
a matter of some moment for track obstructors to
remember that the United States mail is taken over
this road, and it is rather a serious affair to place
any obstructions in its way.
Larceny of a. Shawl.
A short time since a broche shawl disappeared
rather mysteriously from the residence of Mrs.
Catharine Smith, on George street below'South.
On Sunday night, a woman named Catharine Mar-'
tin, who leads n sort of vagrant life, was arrested,
and taken to the Southwark Hall lockup. Yesterday
morning she was recognized as a person who had
been about the house of Mrs. Smith, and, upon fur
ther investigation being made, the larceny of the'
shawl was fastened upon her. She was committed
to answer.
(Before Mr. Judge Ludlow.]
Convicted and Sentenced.
Josiah Bright, who was arrested 'a short time
since on the charge of selling counterfeit bank notes,
was tried in the Court of quarter Sessions yester
day. The evidence was positive, and- the jury
rendered a verdict of guilty. The judge sentenced
him to a term of four years and nine months in the
Eastern Penitentiary. Bright has long been known
to the police of the principal large cities in the
country. Though a dealer in bogus money for many
years, yet, somehow or other, he was always lucky
enough to escape. One time he gave up the idea of
pushing the'queer," as it is called in the police ver
nacular, and tried his hand at burglary. He forced
a house on School lane, Germantown, but was
caught. For this offence he was sent for a term to
the penitentiary, but was restored to liberty through
executive clemency. But very little was heard of
him from that time until about three weeks ago,
when he was arrested on the present charge, which
ended in his conviction and sentence yesterday.
He is an aged man, rather zoml-looking, has gray
'
side whiskers, and has appeared upon Chestnut
street hundreds of times, looking and acting like a
perfect gentleman, both in dress and demeanor.
Though he dealt by the wholesale in counterfeit
notes, yet he seldom attempted to pass any of the
trash upon the unsuspecting.
[Before Mr. Alderman
Truth.
ritere vere but few cases before the Alderman last
evening. Among them was a pretty intelligent look
ing man, who was , picked up from the mud on Wal
nutpstreet wharf, where he was in danger of being
run over at any moment. How he got into the
station house was a problem that he could not solve.
On being arraigned he looked pale and bewildered.
The Alderman asked him his name. '
" James McCloskey sir."
"Where do you lives"
"In Burlington, sir."
"You were drunk this afternoon.", • -
"Yes, sir ; the evidence must be truth:*
"...Well, what have you to say for yourself in '
• '
ex
planation',"
The witness, raising his hands above his head, re
plied :
"My dear friend, I'm sorry that I ever came to
Philadelphia ; I'm sorry ' • yes, sir, I am. very. sorry.
This is the first time that was ever before a court;
If you let me off, sir, I shall go home a sober inan."
"Then you do admit .you were drunk? What did
you get drunk onl"
• "Brandy and whisky ; sir; there's no denying
that." Here •he made a lurch ala Timothy Toodles,
but was saved from falling by the officer.
"I am a respectable citizen of Burlington, sir,"
taidte, recovering himself; "and .if you let me off
I'll—yes, sir—l'll never come back to the city."
"You are fined," responded the magistrate. "Of
ficer, take him below."
" Look here, squire, I've got no money to pay the
fine ; won't you let me offl Upon the honor of a
gentleman, sir "—here he reached the exit door, and
the sound of his retreating footsteps soon ceased to
awaken the least echo in the main hall. ' •
LEGAL INTELLIGENCE.
Supreme Court at Niel Prins --111164juitieis
Thompson.
THE DOCCLASS-MITCII/iLL CASE.
Douglas vs. Mitchell. The case was not concluded
yesterday, as was anticipated and will accordingly
be resumed this morning. The testimony of WIT
' Liam Wright one of the firm of Wright & Hunter,
Ninth and 'Walnut streets, given at a former trial,
was read in evidence. He is at present=seriously 114
and his attendance in court could not be had.
The testimony sets out that at one time, in 1853,
while at Mr, Mitchell's office on business; he observ
. al him in conversation witli two colored men, one of
'.whotn,he called Douglass; Mr. Mitchell was engag
; edin calculating interest on a large sum of money;
after they left the office he inquired if it was Doug.,
lass the printer; Mr. Mitchell replied no, that it was
an intelligent and industrious colored man from-
South Carolina, who had accumulated considerable
• property, and had some eight or ten thousand dol2.
lore deposited in his hands for investment. •
. The testimony of a clerk in the employ of the,
Southworth Paper Company was also read. He iden
tified the paper in the $3,500 note, and the paper on
Douglass' paper patterns, as being of the same kind,
and of a kind manufactured by their company for the
Southern book stores.
• John P. Owens, Esq., testified that in the summer
of 1853 he called on Mr.. Mitchell for the purpose of.
fort:geting him to negotiate the sale Mitchell • nd 'rent •
etweral thousand dollars. Mr. said he:
had not the money himself, but he could probablr
!get it from a party whose money he controlled.
•
•
• -•
• •
Owens went there several times, and the last time
he saw a colored man of Mr. Douglass' size and com
plexion, though the witness could- not . positively
identify liim, pass into Mr. Mitchell's back ot4ce, and
-shortly after come out. Immediately - afterwards
Mr. Mitcheircalled Mr. Owensin and stated that the,
negotiation had fallen through.
Samuel W. I)epuo testified that he called on Mr. •
Mitchell, at his office on Fourth street, below ()hest
nut, with Mr. Douglass, at hie request. Mr. Doug
lass told Mr. Mitchell that the witness was his friend
and would attend to any necessary business while he
was absent. • ' •
He took a couple of notes out of his pocket and
asked Mr. Mitchell' to calculate how much interest
was due on them; Mr. Mitchell did so, and asked
Douglass if he wanted the - interest ;Mr: Douglass
said that he did not, as he had no special use for the
money at that time; Mr. Mitchell said if he did
want it, he would give' him a 'cheek for it; these
notes were the notes on which the Suit wag brought ;
they entered and went out the back office door; Mr.
Wright came in while they were there, and when
they went out they left him there.
Afterwards, in.the summer 0f . 1863, upon witness'
return frorri New *Yolk; . he received a note, written
from Boston by Mr. Douglass, which caused him to
see Mr. Mitchell again. The letter was postmarked
New York; though dated Boston. The witness told
Mr. Mitchell that he had received a note from Mr.'
Douglass, saying had Written to him and expected
he would sent him some money. Mr. Mitchell
said he had received a letter from Mr. Douglass,
and also one for Douglass' wife. He expressed as-7
tonishment at DOugfass , sending to him , for money '
after he had recently accepted an order for so large
a sum in favor of his wife. He said he would Ivnite
to Mr. Douglass himself.
The witness also detailed the incidents of the in
terviews between Douglass and 3 .Eastburn Mitchell,
the executor of Thomas S. Mitchell, substantially
the same as Mr. Mitchell himself described them.
Other witnesses were called during the day. Mrs.
McCants, the mother-in-law of the plaintiff, testified
to interviews with Mr. Mitchell; inieference to the
purchase and sale of the ground.rents, and that the
letter to her from Mr. Mitchell, of July 31, a copy
of which appeared in his letterbook, was burned
by her immediately after it was read.
Samuel Roberts testified that Douglass tendered
him the $2,600 in payment of the purchase money of
a house and lot, which he declined to accept, and
then Douglass referred him to Mr. Mitchell to see if
the note was not all right.' The witness, however;
wanted a bond and mortgage, and finally Douglass
accepted this.
Other witnesses were called and examined, and
the case had not been concluddd at three o'clock.

1101EALING POWERS OF ELECTRI CITY DEMONSTRATED ON OVER FOUR THOU
SAND INVALIDS, AT 1220 WALNUT STREET_PHI
LADELPHLA.
The object of the following certificates is to show that
cures at 1220 WALNUT Street are permanent and re
liable.. The first cure was performed nearly three years
ago, the second was performed nearly one year ago, the.
third about one year, and hundreds more of like cases
might be shown.
READ TILE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY.
About twelve months ago 4 had a severe attack of
Diabetes, attended with other difficulties too numerous
to mention. My desire for drink was constant, and al
though I drank gallons per day, my thirst was naver
allayed; I was only able to sleep at short intervals,
which seemed like a trance. The mucous surface of my
mouth and throat had become so parched and feverish,
that I was in constant misery. I was also suffering
from all the hors ors of Dyspepsia, loss of appetite, Nau
sea; and frequent and severe attacks of vomiting; and so
a • e ed .was •my general system, that ..I was scarcely
and skill Of distrokhanhcld avalled.myself of the science
•-a ,, al men. exhausted Allo
pathic and Hoinmopathic school, And their
catalogue of-remedies, bat found only temporary relief.
In thie condition, when every ray of hoPe seemed Para
lyzed, I heard of the discovery of Professor Bolles in the
use of Electricity, and the wonders he was performing in
curing disease, and placed myself under his treatment;
and, to the astonishment of myself and friends, in two
operations my Diabetes was controlled, and other d'ffi_
culties soon disappaared ; mf appetite has retarnoi , --- ,
undisturbed, and, inflect I eel anew.
. I would rurtner-state' tea - I - - have seen other remark
able cures performed by Prof. Boles, and would advise
the diseased meal! at 1210 Walnut street, and be restored
to health. I shall be glad to give any one information
callingon me. THOMAS HARROP,
Rose - Mill, West Philadelphia,
Philadelphia, May 15t,1860.
Read the following from a preacher of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, No. 1613 Helmuth street; Philadel
phia:
. In attempting a definition of my disease, I can only
give some of the many symptoms which, taken altoge
ther, were the most horrid; and even medical men did
. not know my disease from pathological s . ymptoms. How
ever, Professor C. H. Bolles, by ,whom I was cured, lo
cated• my disease in the pelvic viscera, in five minutes
after I entered his office, and offered to warrant a perfect
cure in eight applications. And I frankly admit that to
eight applications of Electricity, administered by Pro
fmsor 110.1.1.a5, UM Walnut street; Philadelphia, I am
perfectly cured ; and to me this is most astonishing, for I
had exhausted the catalogue of old-school remedies, and
grew worse all the time.
I had long believed that in Electricity resided a potent
agent for the cure of disease, if a right application could.
be made.; and now I can comprehend, from its 'powerful .
-effects on me, for a speedy cure, although no shocks were
given. All was pleasant, and accomplished as if by
magic.
• I will give most of my symptoms, for the benefit of
•suffering humanity. I had dyspepsia, bad marasmus, or
wasting of the tissues of the whole body; at times a
difficulty of breathing, some palpitation of the heart,
much bronchitis, trembling of the limbs after exercise,
aversion to business and company; at times gloomy, ina
bility to collect my thoughts vigorously on any subject,
a loss of memory, pain in various parts of the body ; suf
fered much from lumbago, deranged secretions of the
kidneys and other glands of the system, constant drag
ging pains in the lumbar region, and severe nervous diz
ziness. •
I believe it is my duty, as a lover of huManity, to re
commend this discovery of Professor 'BOLLES to !the
aniicted of all classes. There seems to be no guesswork,
no confusion, no matter of doubt in his treatment. He
proceeds on fixed principles, and according to fixed laws,
which seem to me infallible and harmonious. He war
rants, by special contract, the most obstinate,. chronic
and acute cases, and charges nothing, if he falls. I ad
vise all of the diseased to try his treatment.

ANOTHER CURE OF PARALYSIS OF THE LOWER
LIMBS (Paraplegia) AND APOPLEXY COMBINED.
Read the following
PHILADELPHIA, March SI, 1862.
PROFESSOR BOLLES, /220 Walnut street:• The remarka
ble cure which I have derived from your method of ap
plying Electricity compels me to thus acknowledge the
great obligations I am under to you for snatching me, as
it were, from immediate death. About two years ago,
:while a resident of Cincinnati, Ohio, I was visited with
an attack of paralysis of the lower extremities, which
rendered me almost entirely unable to stand upon my
limbs. I employed some of the most celebrated physi
cians to be found in that section, but received no appa
rent benefit, and after a lapse of about eighteen months
Was taken with a spasm, which one of my physicians
pronounced aAt of apoplexy. Two weeks elapsed from
that time before I became the least conscious of anything
that had transpired, nor could I concentrate my mind or
converse upon any subject without becoming very vi
sionary and excited, until I placed myself under your
valuable - treatment. After my arrival in Philadelphia
my attention was called to your treatment by a pamphlet
handed me by my father, which contained the names of
some gentlemen whom I had been formerly acquainted
with, and whose statements I could rely upon. I imme
diately made up my mind to place myself under your
treatment. I have now been the recipient of four treat
ments, and I now feel perfectly satisfied that I am re
stored to a sound' condition, and thefore feel it my duty
to gratefully acknowledge tho bonellta which I have re
ceived through your treatment.
Very respectfully yours, ate.

using Electricity at h.Azard, but it is tho severity of truth,.
