ALOMi THE WHARVES—NAVY YARD.
Delaware avenue presents, at the present time, indi
with:7ns of unusual prosy may. 'Vessels are arriving
and departing as in the good old time, when Phila
delphia was famed for its mercantile greatness.
The cxports from this port are daily increasing.
The articles exported are of an extensive and varied
character. Bi eadstuffh, however, are the most con.
liplotions, and they are sent to all quarters of the
world. Until lately flour was seat principally to
England aid the West Indies. Since Monday, 400
bbls. flour were sent to Fiance, a country which has
Seldom made any drain upon Philadelphia for the
staff of life. Our imports are not so large, and this
fact contributes to our wealth, for we gain by the
excess of what is sent away.. The chief articles of
import are oranges, raisins, lemons, coffee, molasses,
saltpetre, and such articles as are, in a manner, the
exclusive property of other nations.
. The present number of vessels lying at the wharves
Is about '7O. Of these 13 are ships, 14 barks; 13 brigs,
And 20 schooners. The ships are the Wm. Ournmings
Valley Forge, Crescent City, Fanny McHenry,
Lizzie MOses, Kate Prince, Frank Boult, Western
Ocean, Westmoreland, Constitution, Tuscarora, Ta
merlane, and 'Wallace. Most of these are Liverpoo
packets, and are chartered for that port. The ship
Kate Prince is loading at Lombard-street wharf with
coal for the Government. This vessel is of very
large dimensions, and is capable of carrying about
1,800 tons. The brig Herald is taking on board mate
rial, already finished, for three locomotives, intended
for a railroad under the control of the Brazilian
Government.
The wharves at Richmond show the same activity
which has long been their characteristic.
At the navy yard about 2,600 men are steadily em
ployed, and the utmost stir prevails about the pre
mises. The new man-of-war Monongahela is pro
gressing rapidly. It is expected that she will go into
commission on the 26th inst. Most of her officers
have already been assigned. • Captain McKinstry
will be in command; John Water, first lieutenant;
M. W. Thothas second lieutenant; J. D. Fletcher,'
gunner; Wm. Green, boatswain. Chief Engineer
Ohoates has been detached from the Pawnee for this
vessel. -The Monongahela is provided with two
brass 24-pounders; two 12-pounders, smooth bore;
two rifled 12-pounders; two Dahlgren 11-pounders,
and one 200-pounder rifled Parrott. The Dahlgrens
weight 15,769 pounds, and the Parrott gun 16:520
pounds. •
The-gunboat Lodona, iron -clad, will .sail Inn few
days. 'She carries a battery of thirteen gtins. The
gunboat Patroon, found unseaworthy, will be sold
next Friday at the tinily,. yard. — 'She- still 110 near
the:receiving ship, her guns having been taken off.
The repairs to the Pawnee, De Soto, Hendrick Hud
son, and Botan, are progressing with great rapidity.
Workmen are in great demand, and even to such an
extent that requisitions are often made upon work
shops in the city for assistance. The keel of the
Tonawanda has been laid, and the stern-post put up
in the lower end of the yard. The Juniata pro
ceeded on her trial hip..n day or two ago, but was
obliged to Mit in at the breakwater, on account of a'
break in the bed-plate of the machinery. She re
turns to the navy yard immediately for repairs.
The Board of. Ex:uniners,. now -in. session at the
navy yard, have recommended the following gentle
men tor. pmmotioa. in the Engineer Corps of the
navy: Second Assistant Engineer B. C. Bampton, -
to be first assistant engineer; Third Assistant Engi

TIIE TRADE IN FllRS.—Dealers in furs are .
•
doing quite a brisk business this year, and realizing
handsome profits. Pure rise higher in estimation in .
proportion as the thermometer ranges lower. Gar
ments in this material are therefore rapidly coming
Into use for the season. The most noticeable fact is
the enhanced cost of furs of all descriptions,compared
with former years, owing to the circumstance that
large number of trappers and hunters have, gone
from the forests to the war. The regular sources for
the supply of furs are thus cut off in a measure, so
that the collection of skins and peltries isicarce half
that made heretofore. For.the same reason furriers
ire less troubled by competition in the market, and
have little fear that their limited stock will not meet
with ready sale'
The styles of ladies' furs remain about the same
as last year, as the cost of fur apparel is too great to
admit of the caprices which control in other depart
ments of fashion. The full cape is still much in
- vogue among those who can indulge in such expen
sive luxuries, though the half cape takes the prece
dence of all other styles ; for while it is perhaps the
mostgraceful, it also combines the other more essen
tial quality of comfort in a large measure, and can
be worn to advantage with other garments, of what
ever description. The victorine is also a favorite
with many; but the mink collar is the latest novel
ty, and commends itself for general use.
The furs formerly in vogue—such as martin, fitch,
etc.—have gone into disuse. Chinchilla and gray
squirrel are the leading s tyles for children and misses.
The cheaper grades arc made up, as usual, from a
variety of animals, hut these find their principal
market at a distance from the great centres of popu
lation, where comfort is the main consideration,
without special regard to appearance.
THE SLEEPING CARS ON TILE NORTHERN
CENTRAL RAILROAD.—The new sleeping cars to be
used to-day on the Northern Central Railroad are of
the most luxurious .description, and form a superb
contrast with the original specimens of the inven
tion. They accommodate forty-eight passengers
Sleeping'or sitting. The comfortable cushions, the
I3russels carpet, the completearrangements for
heating, ventilation, and regulation of hot and cold
Air, the mirrors in each compartment, the toilet
accommodations, and the red•light signals :at both
ends of each ear, arc all sureties for a most satisfac
tory journey. The bright and tasteful drapery, the
white sheets and pillow-cases, and showy woven
coverlets, and the beautifully delicate flab% both
within and without. the ears, were quite Attractive.
In a word, every traveller's comfort seems antici
pated. Every section contains one double and two
single,beds, capable of accommodating four persons.
The workmanship is easy and elerant, the transfor-
LOSS 3N COLLIS' ZOI7AYE REODIENT.=-
Lieut.• Gilmore, of Co. I; Collis' Zouaves, which
company was raised principally at Frankford; writes
as follows relative to the conduct of his men during
the recent battle at Fiedericksburg
" We have been in the hardest fight of thewar, and
have - acted like men. Our company did more than
any new troops in the field. We have beenpraised
by old and new men. Our loss was two killed and
two wounded. The killed were Francis Sheridan,
of Philadelphia, and George a Vanhart, of Smith
field. The wounded—Sergeant Ed. S. Marion, of
Philadelphia, and Corporal Daniel K. Hartley, of .
Milltown. Hartley was only slightly wounded by a
spent ball, and was able to take his post ten minutes
afterwards."
T.TIE SCHITYLtaI4., .AIISFNAL.—The same
activity and bustle, is still going on at the United
States Arsenal on Gray - Ferry road. Every de
partment is taxed AO its utmost, and the workmen
are kept well employed. Colonel Urosman, the
deputy quartermaster general, has so perfect disci
pline and such line system established that, '
with an
bones notice, the whole army could be furnished
with all the articles generally used by the' soldier.
The Schuylkill Arsenal is well stocked with Go
vernment goods,' although the 'amount - on hand at
present bears no comparison with what has been
forwarded to the field from this depot within the
last six months.
MONUMENT IN MEMORY OF AN ESTIMA
.
yli.E LA DY.—A magnifiCerit monument has just been
erected at Mount Vernon Cemetery to the memory
'of Madam.Gardel,
.by her husband. The lady was
well known in past years as the proprietress iof a fe
avale'seminary on Chestnut street, above Ninth. -Af
ter her marriage to Mr. Gardel she paid a visit to
'g-ypt, where she died. Her remains were brought
home to Philadelphia, end interred in Mount -Ver
non Cemetery, where the monument alluded to has
jag . : bein completed. It is a beautiful, pyramid-.
shaped obelisk, covered with life-sized statuary that
is designed to illustrate the life and virtues of thade
ceased lady.
DISTINGUISHED IN BATTLE.—Among the
many Philadelphians who have distinguished them
selves' in the late battle at Fredeiicksburg may be
mentioned the name of Colonel. Wm. McCandless,
commanding the 2a Regiment . Pennsylvania Re
serves. For his bravery upon that memorable occa
sion he has been promoted to the rank of brigadier
general of the First Brigade, Pennsylvania Re
serves. Captain R.. 1. Smith, in the same regiment,•
while 'urging his men forward in 'one of the charges
Upon the enemy, observed the color-bearer to fall,
pierced with a number of bullets. He immediately
rushed forward, and seizing them,
.carried them
through the fight.
INTERESTING TO DRESSMAKERS. —The
Commissioner of Internal.ReVenue has decided that
dressmaking is a manufacture, and as such, if car
ried on to an extent exceeding one thousand dollars
per year, including price of goods, requires a license.
The dressmaker is required to make monthly re
tures and to pay a tax of three percent. on the whsle
value of her manufactures. When a dressmaker
Makes up goods belonging to her customers, she is
required to make
.returu of the same, and to pay a
tax upon them ; hut she is authorized by the law
(section 69) to add the tax to her bill for labor, and
has a lien upon the dresses until the bill is paid. •

THE POLICE:
[Before Mr. Alderman.Beitler.7
The Robbery at the Contthental.
Wm. Henry Johnson, the colored man who was
arrested a few days since on the charge of purloining
a number of articles from the Continental, came up.
for a final hearing, before Alderman Heftier, at the
Central Station. The superintendent of the depart
ment of porters made .a statement, he having been
qualified at the first hearing. On the Bth of Novem
ber, a pair of boots belonging to Mr. Collis, of Provi
dence, were missing from room number 96, which
apartment the owner of the boots occupied. On the
6th of the same month a pair of lace boots, the pro
perty of Mr. Hirsch, of Harrisburg, were stolen.
On November 28th a pair of boots were stolen from
number 61. These belonged to Mr. Eudelott, of New
York. The proprietor of the Continental had to pay
$7.60 for another pair of boots for his guest, the
boot-maker having to be sent for on Sunday morning.
The witness had some talk with the defendant on
the subject of the robbery. He admitted that he had
taken two pair of hoots, and nothing else.
Q. Was he employed at'the Continental 1
A. Yes, sir, as a servant to Mr. Olwyne, since de
ceased. .
Q. How longs time?
About six weeks or two months. Mr. Olwyne had
two or three servants during his sickness.
Q. Had you any conversation with the defend
ant about a pane?
- -
A. Yes, sir. He said he took the cane, but had
taken it back, and placed it near the private pantry.
This cane wee found in Mr. Olwyne's room. There
was also a dollar and some postage stamps stolen
from the pantry.
The evidence here closed, and the defendant was
committed to await his trial. In order to convict, it
is necessary that the owners of the lost property shall
appear on the day of trial.
Alleged Robbery of a Soldier.
Theodore Peters, a cab-driver, was arraigned be
fore the Alderman last evening, on the charge of
robbing a one-armed soldier, named John Gehring,
who belonged to. Oompany'K, 65th Pennsylvania.
The soldier had been in two battles, and was wound
ed in that at Fair Oaks, by which he lost his left
forearm, amputation having been performed a few.
inches below the elbow. He was paid off and dis
charged from the hospital at Baltimore on Monday
morning last. He arrived in Philadelphia on the
same night, ar 4 o stopped at the house of Mr. Buck,
on Carpenter street. He had with him forty-seven
dollars, which he gave to the landlord for safe
keeping. On Tuesday morning the money was re
turned to him, and Mr. Gehring employed a cab-driver
to take hint to a friend's house on Oallowhill street,
where he expected to meet his sister, whom he had
not seen since he had enlisted. Not being able to
find her, he desired to be taken to the New , York
depot, but, by some means or other he did not reach
that place.. It is tated that; during his travelling
around he handed Vo-treasury note to the cab
driver Peters, requesting him to put it into his (the
owner's) left pocket, as he himself could not do so,
because of the loss of his arm. Mr. Gehring says,
that the driver appeared to put the . money into the -•
pockeias desired, and the witnelis'thought he really
did so. ,The.note has not been seen since. Informa
tion of The supposed robbery was left at the station,.
and, yesterday • afterndon, Officer Kerr; of the Ka : .
serve force, arrested Peters at Water and Walnut'
streets, and took him to the look-up.; The accused.
asseverated his innocence of, the charge. He was
identified by Mr. Gehring at the hearing, afEer which
the alderman required bail in the sum of $BOO to an
swer at court. Mr. Gehring belongs to New York.
• William McKeown, the proprietor of it• public
house situate on Gray's Ferry road, near the United -
States Arsenal, was arraigned_ before Alderman
Harmer, yesterday morning, on the_charge of coin- .
mating an assault and battery :on Wm. Miller with
intent to kill. The circumstances, as delieloPed, are
that on Thursday Miller made an attack on a tree
box in' front of the tavern of Mr. McKeown and
partly demolished it. Considerable wrangling oc
curred in consequence' thereof, and finally .Miller
paid two dollars and a half damages.
After this he went into the street, picked up_ a
large-sized pebble stone, and attempted to strike Mr.
McKeown on the head with it. The old man, who
is lame, pulled a pistol out, and fired it at Miller, the
shot taking effect in one of his eyes,'and also pep
pering his face all over. The wounded man was re
moved to the hoSpital, and McKeown was taken
into custody. The defendant admitted to the police
that he had shot at Miller, and would do so again, in
self-defence. "It is a lame old man, that I am,";said
he, "and I'll never let it be said that Billy McKeown
allowed_ anybody to dash his brains out with a
sthone." Under the circumstances, the magistrate
required the defendant to enter bail to answer at
.court.
[Before Mr. Alderman McMullin.)
Alleged Robbery.
,
J. Sharp, a-young man who had arrived in town
on Thursday, to " see sights," while wandering
about, in the vicinity of Fourth and Shipperhstreets,
was accosted by a female, minted CatharineHeitch=
ler, who conducted him to ti house in i that
Of course he could not refuse to iMbibe; and,the, ro
suit was that at a subsequent Period he found him- •
self minus all his money, amounting to nine dollars
and a half.. He complained to the police, and Catha
rine was taken into custody on the charge of robbing
Kr. Sharp. The evidence was such as to warrant
the alderman in committing the accused to.answer.
This is one of al class of similar cases that seldom
ever reach a court of justice. The prison has no
terrorsfor sucliveople as Catharine. As a class of
people, they are rather fond of the retirement, every
now and then. ." • •
The Bethlehem Robbery.
The two brothers Klottsman, , arrested on the
charge of robbing the Young Ladies' Seminary at .
Bethlehem, Pa., made a full confession of their
guilt. While going up in the cars, one of them sud
denly'," seized a bayonet and attempted to stick him
self 'in the throat with it. It. was caught by the
other brother, and thus the tragedy was prevented.
Upon arriving at the scene of, their recent nefarious
operation, they made a full confession: They said
They climbed up an arbor, and finding the doors and
windows unfastened, entered the seminary, and
helped themselves to as many things as they could
welrcarry away. • . ' . •
All the jewelry which the "bride,' at the hearing
on Wednesday said belonged to her, was identified
as the property of several of the young ladies of the •
seminary. The female has, of course, thus been
caught in a positive fabrication, and will insure her
conviction on the charge of a receiver. There are
certain circumstances connected with this affair,
that, for obvious reasons, should not be made public
at the present time—from which it would appear,
that the marriage certificate presented privately to'
the detectives, was for a certain effect. The detec
tives are too hard-hearted to misplace what little
sympathy they have. One of the silver thimbles
'claimed by this woman as a bridal gift, was stolen
from the tieconti story of the seminary.
. A handspine set ofjewelry, that the: "bride" wore
. upon the occasion of her Marriage. was identified as
the property of a young lady at Bethlehem, who va
lued the articles because
. they were a present from a
near relative. But little is knewn of ..these thieves.

LEGAL INTELLIGENCE.
Supreme Court at Nisi Prius Justice
.. Thompson. . .
TEE DOUGLAS. FA-MITCHELL CASE ENDED--VERD/CT
•
.Douglass Vs. Mitchell.. The jury in this case yes
terds y morning brought into Court the folio wine ver
dict
"The jury find for the plaintiff, and assess the
damages as against Joseph W. Miller, administrator
de bonze no cam lesiamento annex° of Thomas S. Mit
chell, deceased, at the sum of $10,450.84, in which
is included the sum of $943.49, the costs of the pre
vious suit and we find for defendants, Clara Mit-
Chell and 7.mily Mitchell, by their guardian Samuel
N. James."
The finding of the jury against the adminiatrator
is but a formal reiteration of the former verdict in
the suit in which the executor alone was the party
defendant. That judgment bound only the person
alty, and in order to charge the real estate of the
decedent in the hands of the heirs and devisees, Clara
and Emily Mitchell, it was necessary to bring them
in by sci. fa., as in the present case. In the former
judgment they were, by law, entitled to make the
same defence in this action that their testator could
have done, (cif living, to the original claim;
and availing themselves of this legal privilege, they
have combated the case anew, and won the fore
going verdict. Of the personal estate, against which
the former judgment is a lien only, there is nothing
left, Mr. Douglass having received some $5OO some
time ago, the balance on settlement of the executor's'
account. Mr. Douglass loses his entire claim. If
he actually loaned the money, he is unfortunate in
deed; if it was a fraudulent claim, the verdict is a
righteous one. The case attracted a great deal. of
attention, and caused much division of opinion
among those who carefully - watched its progress.
SLAINDER-ACTION FOR DAMAGES.
Valentine vs. Myers. This was an action to re
cover damages .for slanderous words, alleged to have
been used by defendant against plaintiff. Suit had
'been brought by Myers against Valentine before one
of the aldermen of our city, in defence to which Va
lentine presented and proved by his books of origi
nal entry a. set oft: Myers then. charged him with
having sworn falsely ; that he had perjured himself;
had sworn to lies, and was a perjured man. These
expressions were repeated, several times in the al
derman's office.
Justice Thompson instructed the jury that where
a party in a suit conducted his own case,
he had a
perfect right to criticise the tetimony of his oppo
nent, and denounce it, at the time, in the terms
complained of in this case, as often as he thought
proper, if he honestly believed it to be so, and did
not do so maliciously, and that no damages could be
recovered therefor. Under this instruction the jury
found a verdict for the defendant.

. Richard Peterson et al. vs: The Navy Yard, Broad
sta ect, and Fairmount Railivrty Company, The
Richmond and Schuylkill Passenger Railway Com
pany, and Jonathan Bullock and Price J. Patton.
Yesterday the bill filed some. days ago by the com
plainants, citizens and tax-payers, and owners of
large and valuable properties on broad street, on
Howard street, and on Girard avenue, praying an
.injunction to restrain the laying of a railroad, on
those streets in the manner propoked by defendanti,
came up for argument. •
." .
The act incorporating the Broad-street Company
authorizes it to construct, in such manner as rail
ways' are /now constructed'. in -this eity,-a single or
double track, commencing with a single 'track at or
near the intersection of Broad street and Federal
street, extending east along Federal street to Front
street ; thence south along Front street to Wharton
street; thence west . along Wharton s street to Broad
street ; thence north with a double track along Broad
street to Spring Garden street ; thence west with a
double track along Spring Garden street to. Fair
mount ; and they shall have the right to connect
their single track with their double track at Broad
and Wharton streets, — rit Broad and Federal 'streets,
and to .make. such turnouts, connections, and sid
ings as may he necessary for the prosecution of the
'business of the company ; and they shall have the
right to cross at grade any oilier railroad, and by
agreement connect with and run over any other rail
road now constructed, or which may hereafter be con
structed, in the city of Philadelphia; and further,
shall have the right to extend their railway by/single
or double track from - Broad and Wharton streets
southwardly, and from Broad and Spring Garden
streets northwardly, at such times as the company
may determine that the convenience of the public re
quires such extension or extensions; , and they shall
enjoy all and singular the same privilegeir that are
now or may hereafter be extended to any other rail
wit company.
The bill charges that thedefendants are about to
commence and lay and construct a double-track rail
road, with three rails for each track, beginning at
the depot of the .Baltimore Railroad, at ,Broad and
Prime streets;. and , extending northwardly along
Broad to, Girard avenue, thence eastwardly along
Girard avenue to Howard street, again northwardly
along Howard to Harrison '
and thence eastwardly
along Harrison to the depot of.the Philadelphia and
Trenton Railroad Company.
That it is the purpcise and design of the defendants
to use this railroad to carry passengers and freight,
propelled by steam power, between the two men
tioned depots, and not to 'make the road applicable
for a passenger railway for the convenience of citi
zens of Philadelphia; on the contrary, by laying.
three rails to each track they propose to adapt the
road to the gauges of the railroad transporting com
panies and carriers of freight bet Ween New York
and Baltimore. • „
That this attempt to make Philadelphia a way
station for freight and passengers on the line be
tween the ettlea of New York and Baltimore, arid of
carrying freight through some of the most beautiful
and thickly-populated streets of the city, is.in violl
tion Of the terms of their charter, and if carried into
effect would greatly depreciate property along the
proposed route, imperil the lives of citizens, - be a
public nuisance in the streets, and inflict a serious
and irremediable Injury upon the interests of the
. That the defendants have no authority to: make
any connection, at Broad and 'Prime or at any other
point along the line, with any transporting railroad,
anti that if they have any right at all to connect, it is

FOIL DIXE.NDA'NT
INJUNCTION
Onty with a 'passenger railway, known and nsedits
such r and hot with that if it is in proximity to any
Aracisporting railroad, in order to form a continuous
Link with the latter.
That the only termini of the railway are the Navy
Yard and Fairmonnt, and when the termini arc ex
pressly mentioned and a power is atterivards' given
to extend without limitation, such 'right of exten
sion is void.
That even if they have the right to construct a
railway connecting the two depots they cannot use
that part only; but must complete ° the whole route
from the Navy Yard to Fairmount. •
' That there is no railroad on Howard street con
necting with the Richmond and Schuylkill Passen
ger Railway Company on Girard avenue, and in no
event can any connection be permitted with the
depot of the Philadelphia and TrentOn Railroad by
means of any street on which there is no track
already laid. •
That the defendants have not complied with the
city ordinance of July 7, 1857, inasmuch as they have
not tiled in the office of the City - Solicitor a written
obligation to conform to the regulations of Councils
respecting passenger railways.
That the permission of City Councils for the con
struction of the said railroad has not been obtained.
That they have no right to lay more than, two
rails to each track, which must be of the pattern,
size, weight, and exact height and measurement of
the rails used by the passenger raihrays now tra
versing the streets of the city.
That the proposed road, if it cante lawfully con
structed,. must conform to and be under the require
mend of the said 'ordinance of 'the city; and, as it is ,
prohibited therein to 'carry freight or use steam as
the motive power, no freight can be carried over the
said proposed road, and no locomotive engines can
be attached to propel any cars through the streets of •
the city.
The bill concludes with, a prayer for an injunction
to restrain the defendants from buildingtho railroad
on the streets above mentioned; from making any
connection with the said depots ; from laying any
. track with more than two rails, or any rail Which is
not of the pattern, size, .weight, and exact. height
and measurement of :rails now used by passenger
railways in the city;. • from interfering with the
streets until all the provisions of the city ordinance
• regulating passenger railways shall have been fully
complied with in every respect; from using steam

' Company had entered into an agreement with the
Philadelphia. and Trenton, and the 'Philadelphia,
Wilmington, and Baltimore Railroad Conipanies to.

transporting companies over their road, and had
agreed with the Richmond and Schuylkill Passen
ger Railway Company to lay a third rail on the pre
sent track of that company, for the same purpose.
Afterthe reading of the bill, and amendinent by,F.

nue,The whole track will be, in platKimilar to other

Broad• Street will really he a single trahk, yet allow
ing the use of cars differing in gauge, to attain which
-three raile - will be laid as now in use on Second
:livid Third streets, from Market to Dock street. On
ihis.point the affidavit says:
." The track will be laid on heavy crosediesiplaped]
four feet from centre to centre, upon and to which
Will be secured stringers of large dimensions--that
OR the western side being ten inches wide and 'eight

That the Navy Yard company has the right to

and that as the lessees of said portion of the road of
the Philadelphia and Trenton railroad, they applied
to, and obtained permission of tha Board.of Surveys,
to lay a part of the track of their said- road' to the
said depot. Andthat the Philadelphia and-Trenton
road, in order to make and construct the said exten-'
sion of their road ; agreed with the Navy Yard Corn-
pany to give them-the right of way' over the same '..
from its intersection with theßichmond and Schuyl--

ranee certain sums of money to dhable them to con

to carry the freight of the said riiiiroads;tut ;they .
hove agreed , to carry their passengers.with their or
dinary luggage from and between the two depots.
"Dint it is the design of the company to carry pas
sengers and their baggage between the ,said depots,
but that it is not, and never was, their design to use
steam power on said road, or any part thereof; and,

With the use of the streets by the citizenS. t {
The argument was opened immediately on the
completion of the reading of these documents; and
was continued until the hour of adjournment. The
abstract of bill and affidavit we have above present- .
ed, however, is a complete embodiment of the views
Orally presented to the court, and it is unnecessary
.to repeat . them here. Messrs. Edward H. Well, F.
0:. Brewster, M. Russell Thayer, and Henry DI.
Phillips appear for the complainants, and James F.
Johnston, John C. Knox, George M. Wharton, and
Garrick Mallory for the defendants. Mr. Brewster
offered to read the remonstrance against the road,:
signed by some 600 citizens, but the court refused to
permit. it to be read. The argument will be resumed
this morning. . .

READ THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY.
About twelve months ago had a. severe. attack of
- Diabetes,' attended with other difficulties too numerous
to mention. My desire for drink was constant, and al
• though I 'drink gallons per day . , my thirst was, never
.. 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 wits in constant misery. I was also suffering
from all thn horrors of Dyspepsia, loss of appetite, Nan
smand frequent and severe attacks of vomiting; andso
prostrated was my general system, that .1 was scarcely
able to move about. l had availed myself of the science
and skill, of distinguished medical men, both of the Alto
penile and Hommopathic school, and exhausted their
catalogue of remedies, but found
.only temporary relief.
In this condition, when every ray of hope seemed para
lysed; 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 diffi
culties soon &appeared ; my appetite has'returned,sleeri
undisturbed,' an in fact, I feel like one made anew.. •

:In attempting a definition of my disease; I can only
give some of the many symptoms which, taken altoge

not know my disease from pathological symptoms. How

after I entered his office, and offered to warrant a perfect
cure in eight applications. And I frankly admit thatin
eight applications of Electricity, administered by Pro,

perfectly cured ; and to me this is most astonishing, for I
had exhansted 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 &male, if a right application could
be made; and now I can comprehend, from its powerful
effects on me; for a speedy cure,.although uo shocks were

PIiOFEBSOR Boum, MO Walnut street: The remarka
ble cure which I have derived from your method of aP

great obligations I am under to you for snatching nie,.as
it were, from immediate death. About two years ago,
while a resident of.Cincinuati, Ohio, I was visited with

rendered me almost entirely unable to stand upon my

proiimiliced a fit of apoplexy: Two weekd elapsed from
that time before! became the least conscious of anything
that had transpired, nor could I concentrate my mind or
