OVEHATCONS OP THE LAW-AMOUNT OF COLLEC.
TIONS IN THIS CITY
We have gathered with great care and labor nu
merous statistics and facts which will tend to show
the operations of the internal revenue law, and the
probable amount that will be collected in this city.
The figures given below have been compiled by the
collectors themselves for the inflrmation of the
chief commissioner, and will differ but a trifle from
the final result obtained at the close of the year's
labor, ending September Ist, 1863. The only uncer
tainty is in reference to the income tax, which in
some of the districts will be very lislit.
FIRST COLLECTION DISTRICT
This district embraces the Second, Third, Fourth,
Fifth, Sixth, and Eleventh wards. Sesper Harding,
collector; • Washington Keith, assessor. The &s
-trict is a very wealthy one, and the receipts will
reach a high figure. The number of licenses granted
will be exceedingly large. We are unable to give
an estimate of what the probable receipts will be,
but some idea may be formed when we state that
the sum of $e2,754 was collected during the month
of September, and $77,000 during October. These
sums were paid over to the collector by the assessor.
The total receipts cannot fall short of $600,000, and
will probably be much more. Owing to-the vast
number of stores, offices, and other places of busi
ness in the }list district, the Income tax will not
he so heavy. One clothing establishment, during
the months of September anti October alone, paid in
$7,700; while a distillery will pay annually about
$50,000. There are also numerous other large es
tablishments in the district which will yield to the
Government a handsome income.
SECOND COLLECTION niavrtio'r
comprises the First,Seventh,Eighth,Ninth and Tenth
wards; John H. Diehl, collector; Thos. W. Sweeney,
assessor. This, undoubtedly, will prove the weal
thiest of the whole five districts. The amount of
gold and silver here to be taxed will be much greater
than any other section, while the income tax reaches
a large amount. The gas works are within this dis
trict, and will yield an annual income of $91,000. The
largest brewery, probably, in the country is also
located here..• The following statement, prepared by
the collector, will exhibit the probable receipts of
the district for the year ending Sept. ist, INS:"

Second, Twenty-third, Twenty-fifth wards, and all of
Bucks county,.and occupies the largest extent of ter
ritory, the area being about fifty by twenty-live
miles, with a river front of eighty miles. It is di
vided into nine sections, which are necessarily large,
and thus much time and labor is consumed in travel
ling from place to place. In one of the sections of
Bucks county the amount of ground travelled over
by the assessor, in fulfilling his duties, was 146 mites.
In consequence of this fact the collector, John W.
Cowell, and assessor, Edward T. Chase, have not
been able to prepare a correct statement of the pro
bable amount of receipts. One or two of the as
sessors have not yet handed in their returns ; but it
is thought the revenue that will be derived 'by the
Government from this district will not fall short of
$250,000. About two thousand licenses have thus
far been granted. The Twenty-second ward (Ger
mantown) will pay, this month, about $lO,OOO, and
the Twenty-third ward between seven and eight
thousand dollars. This is a great manufac
turing district; but much of the material, when
made, is transferred to other districts, where
it is taxed. The manufaQturing of hosiery and
woolen-knit goods, which is carried on to a great ex
tent here, is now almost suspended, the season being
well over. In Bucks county, agricultural imple
ments and large numbers of cigars are made, but, as
many of these articles will be taxed in the city dis
tricts, the receipts from the county will not be more
than $20,000 per annum.
The result of the labors of the collectors and as
sessors is, thus far, very gratifying. The tax is
borne cheerfully by the people, it being but seldom
that a dissenting voice is heard. In many cases
parties appear before the collectors voluntarily, and
it quire when they can pay that which they feel is
due the Government. Each collector sends out cir
culars to the tax-payers, notifying them that their
licenses are ready, and requesting them to call as
early as possible and obtain them. The amount due
is stated, and the parties are requested to pay in
current funds or certified checks.

TILE FIRST OP JANUARY AND THE MEAN
SCHE3tE.7-On a great occasion like the
present, the proclamation of freedom to all slaves in
rebel States, it might reasonably be expected that a
great celebration would take place to-day among the
anti-slavery residents of,this city. Many of these
have belonged to that chesen band, who, with pa
tient labor and superhuman energy, have for thirty
years battered earth's greatest wrong until it top
ples to its base, yet, humbly de hid of self-glorifica
tion, fly the thanks of their fello*-nien, and pursue
the quiet tenor of their way, filled with the peace
of God, which passeth all understanding. Beyond
meeting in genial private 'parties, these people
ushered in the new year, last night, without mark,
nor will they assemble together in 'any manner to
day.
In addition to these especial apostles of the anti
slavery creed, may now be counted in their ranks a
number of the cleagy, who, since the opening of the
'war, have had their attention directed strongly to
the cause. Calls, therefore, for New-Year's meet
ings in the Firafßaptist Church and First Reformed
Presbyterian Church appear in the papers. At a meet
ing also of the Presbytery of Philadelphia, held in
the Sixth United PresbYterian Church, on Tuesday
evening the following resolutions were unanimous
ly adopted:
Resolved, That this Presbytery deem it proper to
reaffirm their most hearty approval of the Presi
dent's proclamation, in relation to the emancipation
of the slaves of those. States or parts of States, in
rebellion against the United States whether . it. be
,conSidered as an act of justice to the oppressed, a
means of re-establishing the national authority in
the rebel States, or as a means of preserving our
own liberties.
Resolved, That we deeply deplore any efforts to
save slavery rather than the Union, or to make any
new concessions, whatever, to the rlave-masters,
believing, as we do,
that slavery is always injurious
to the best interests of society, and dangerous to the
liberties of nil classes, and believing, as we also do,
that to give new guarantees to slavery would be ex
ceedingly offensive to the God of nations in view of
the tendencies of the institution, as shown in the
history of our own country, and in view of the vials
of Divine wrath now poured out upon the land.
Resolved, That when we consider how' often our
armies have suffered reverses, and how little evi
dence is furnished, either by the people or their
'rulers, by professing Christiana, or by our citizens
generally, of a disposition to repent and break off
from the prevalent sins of the land, we feel more
than ever called upon to humble ourselves In the
dust and pray that God would arise forourhelp and
redeem us for His mercy's sake.
..We have been speaking above of white persons.
Among our colored population a grand 'celebra
tion will take place to-day, at Big Wesley church,
Loipbatd street, below Sixth, commencing at
2 Pri and continuing through the afternoon and
• evening. Among the speakers will be Revs. John
Walker Jackson, and Wm. T. Alston, with Messrs.
Wm. Nicholson, Thomas N. C. Hinton, and Prof.
A. M. Green. Musical selections will be given in
the intervals of the addresses, and a most elevating
and happy hour will doubtless be enjoyed by those
participating.
DESTIIUCTIVE FIRE IX TUE POURTEENTIr
WAI:D-LLOSS OF LlFE.—Yesteiday morning, about
3 o'clock, a fire broke out in a large three-story stone
building, with frame attached, located on the south
side of 'Willow street, below Thirteenth, in the Four
teenth ward. The structure was known as Scho
field's Woolen Mill, being owned by Mr.'Thomas
Schofield, whO was extensively engaged in the manu
facture of woolen yarns for carpet, and was in full
tide of successful operation, employing about thirty
hands, consisting of men, women, boys, and girls.
The mill was kept running day and night. Recently
there had been introduced into the premises a large
amount of valuable machinery, preparatory to the
manufacture of army cloth In addition to the woolen
yarn.
The fire broke out in the picker room. on the se
cond floor, at the southwest end of the building.
There were two pickers in operation at the time.
One was attended by John Miller, the foreman of
the night hands, and the other by Mary Ann Mc-
Caully. Mr. Miller states that he saw a piece of
lint fall from the gas burner which was over the
picker, and immediately all the light material which
was lying about the floor took fire. There were
water pipes through the building, with spickets and
buckets in the different rooms. Miller and Mrs.
McCaully took these buckets and endeavored to ex;.
tinguish the flames by throwing water upon them,
hut the tire progressed too rapidly, and the clothing
of Mrs. McCaully was soon in a blaze. Miller then
told her to save herself, and he supposed that she
ran down stairs. He continued to battle with the
flames, but found that he was unable to manage
them. His clothing was also on tire, and he at
tempted to make his escape. He dikovered his re
treat down stabs cut off by the dense volumes of
smoke, and then went up to the third story, from the
window of which he swung himself to the.ground by
the hoisting-machine. He was terribly burned
about the head, face, and wrists, and, while suffering
the most intense agony, ran all the way to his rest
(fence, No. 1537 Seybert street, in the Twenty-fourth
ward.
Mrs. McCaully was either suffocated, or burned to
death. She had evidently tried to make her way to
the front of the building, and her moans and screams
were heard for fifteen minutes. No relief could be
afforded her, however, as the immense volume of
smoke stifled the firemen, and kept them at a good
distance from the mill. The body of the' unfortu
nate woman was subsequently found by Richard
Reich, a member of the Good Intent Hose Company,
who went into the second story by means of a ladder.
The body was lying near "the front door, upon a
small portion of the floor which had not been burned.
It was removed to the Eighth District station house,
and Coroner Conrad notified to hold an inquest.
The deceased was a widow, and lived in the same
house with Miller. She leaves three children, one
of whom, a girl about nine years of age, has been de-,
formed from infancy. A son is in Girard College,
and the other child was at home.
A boy andgirl, who were in the picker-room at
time the fire broke out, escaped in safety, as did
also the other hands employed in the mill.
The building was filled with material for the manu
facture of yarn, And there was also an immense stock
of yam on hand. The doors were saturated with
oil, and the flames burned so fiercely that it was im
possible to save the mill, although there were about
thirty streams from steam engines playing upon it
at one time. The whole structure was compldtely
wrecked. and the contents are a total loss. Nothing
remains but the walls.
On Willow street, east of the mill, and separate d only by a partition wall, stands a on two-story
brick building, known as the Keystone Wood Turn
ing Mill, And occupied by Hoover & Antrim. This
was saved, but suffered somewhat by water. All
the adjoining property, comprising coal-sheds, dye
houses, &c., escaped through the exertions of the
firemen, who were at work until after daylight.
The contents of the mill, including machinery,
stock, and materials, were valued at about $15,000,
and is partially covered by insurance. $5,000 of the
insurance is in the Royal Insurance Company.
The building and the fixed machinery belonged to.
the estate of Peter A. 13rowne, deceased. The da
mage is estimated at from $3,000 to $4,000. There is
an insurance of $3,000 upon the building in the
Royal Insurance Company. •
PAYLNG THE BOUNTY TO VOLUNTEERS.—
For the past few days the "City Bounty Cennmis
aion has been paying over the bounty money to
the men of Colonel Segebarth's regiment. This is
a good move, and should be continued as long as
the appropriation for this purpose holds out, as the
Government still needs all the recruits that can be
obtained.
The Citizens' Bounty Committee, which holds the
money subscribed by the citizens of Philadelphia,
have stopped paying the bounty, although they have
still a large amount of funds on hand, which was
contributed for this specific purpose. A fleeting
has been held by them, to determine whether they
shall go on paying bounty or give the money back
to the contributors. This course would be a rather
irksome job, and would be of no special benefit.
Why not continue paying the bounty to those regi
ments which have been recruiting! It would facili
tate recruiting, and thus lend the Government con
siderable assistance in organizing the grand army.
Colonel Segebarth is still lying at Cooper's
creek, in Camden, and only needs about three bat
teries to complete his organization, which, when
full, will number nearly eighteen hundred men. The
good citizens of Camden intend furnishing the regi
ment with a New Year's dinner to-day, and a fine
time is anticipated.

order of the United States Marshal, part of the

mall, on account of the disagreeable and stormy
Weather.
INUREMENT OF. PRESIDENT ALLEN, OF

THE POLIOD.
The India-if, übber Man.
' We hare heard of a number of daring exploits
perfopned recently at all early hours after the shades
of night have fallen. The operations seem to have
generally been confined to the northwestern part of
our city, in the section where the Girard College is
located. Several ladies have been robbed by a well
dressed man, who wears India-rubber shoes to facili
tate him in approaching his intended victims so
noiselessly from behind as not to attract any at
tention. At the request of certain of the police, we
have refrained from saying anything publicly on the
subject, as it WAS thought that quietness would fa
cilitate the arrest of the daring robber. The time
has arrived when The Press readers should be warned..
About two weeks since, at half past eight o'clock in
the evening, a Miss Mason was quietly walking
along West Green street on her home. All at
once aho felt a hand upon her mouth, and before her
recovery from fright, her muff and fur cape were
taken.
An evening or two subsequently, a domestic
in the [employ of a family residing on Green
street, near Twenty-first, was robbed of her
shawl and reticule, in the same manner. It is stated
that in this instance the robber sneaked behind her
and put a sticking plaster on her mouth so that she
could make no noise. She made all the resistance
possible, but it was of no avail. She says that the
whole airair did not occupy more than a minute.
The latest case that we have heard of occurred on
last Saturday evening near Fourth and Apple
streets. A woman with a basket pretty well tilled
with groceries was returning from a neighboring
store to her home, when suddenly some one ap
proached from behind, put a sticking plaster on her
mouth, and then relieved her of the basket of groce
ries.
There are a number of young ladies who have•
formed themselves into sewing circles to make up
various articles of comfort for the Union soldiers.
They visit each other's houses, and sometimes leave
for home as late as 10 o'clock in the evening. We
learn that an attempt was made to rob one of them
by the above process. There is not a little conver
sation in some of the sewing circles on the subject of
what they choose to denominate the Daditi•rubber
man. Ladies whose business requires them out
after nightfall should, if alone, avoid all lonesome
places, or they may become the victims of an old
operation of sneak thieves—the application of a
sticking plaster. This method of pursuing a . very
nefarious business was very much in vogue in Lon
don some years since, anti also in New - York. The
attention of the poiice has been especially called
to this subject. Anybody who wears gum shoes in
lonesome streets at night should be arrested as 'a
suspicious person.
Utcrore Aft. Aldermnn Hutchinson.]
Juvenile Delinquents.
Four small boya were arraigned before Alderman
Hutchinson yesterday, on the charge of stealing a
number of brass screws from a plate-printing estitt:
lishment !on Arch street, near Sixth. It was ascer
tained they had sold the articles to William Splane,
Who keeps a small shop on Cherry street. The man
was arrested on the charge of receiving stolen goods,
for which offenoe he was held to answer at court.
Of the boys, three of them are the children of very
respectable citizens. They are scarcely of sufficient
age to estimate the enormity of stealing. The other
boy, who seemed to be more reckless, and who led
the others• from the straight-forward pathway of
honesty, was sent to the House of Refuge.
The children were detained, and will probably ap
pear as witnesses against the receiver.
[Before Mr. Alderman White.)
Ignorance of the LaW.no Excuse.
Daniel Crowley, a countryman, haling from•Diont
gomery county, was fined, on Tuesday evening, for
obstructing the railway track at Fourth and Chest
nut streets. • He had his wagon on the rails, and,
when the oar came along, would not get out of the
way. He was remonstrated with by Officer Raw
'lnge, but. did not appear to heed him. All this time
the passengers were getting impatient, and the whole
intersection of the streets was about to become •-
blockaded, rendering a passage across the street a
dangerous experiment, and almost an im;:ossibility.
Crowley was taken before the magistrate, and claim
ed a discharge on the ground that he did not know it
was unlawful to stand his wagon on the track. The
magistrate informed him that ignorance of the law
is no excuse. The single duty he had to perform
was to render judgment against him. The country
man left the-office somewhat-wiser, perhaps; than
when he entered. . I
Attempt to Rob a Till.
• Robert BreCormack, a lad not over 12 years old,
was committed to prison yesterday morning to an
swer the charge of attempting to rob a till at the
small shop of George Hoetz, a German, on Union
street, above Third. This lad had been caught on
two occasions of petty pilfering, but was let off at
the time, at the earnest solicitations of the youth
and his lather. Reformation was promised, but it
seems. that he had forgotten it all. The evidence in
thepresent instance is that, at half past ten o'clock
on Tuesday evening the defendant and another boy
went to the shop of Mr. Hoetz. One staid outside.
:McCormack entered and succeeded in getting .
around behind the counter, and just as he was in .
the act ofremoving the till a customer chanced to
come in and gave the alarm. The boy was caught
in the act. He made a clean breast of the whole
affair yesterday before the alderman, and said that
his plan was to steal the drawer with its contents.
He had procured a ten-cent postage note, and if like
ly to be caught intended to buy a half pound of soap;
the note being intended for payment. In laying his
plans for the theft he did not think ofthe emergency
of anybody coming into the shbp s a customer. His
accomplice outside ran away.
[Before Mr. Alderman Oe •
False Pretence and Larceny Case.
A lad, apparently about 18 years old, named Her
man Bloomingdale, was arraigned yesterday after
noon on the charge of obtaining gOods under false
pretences. A considerable amount of evidence was
given in, of which the following is perspicuous con
densation : George E. Hart, of the police, arrested
the defendant on Tuesday night, on. the charge of
obtaining goods undenfalse pertences, and then sell
ing the same to other parties. It seems, according
to the evidence, that the lad went to the store of
Messrs. Boyer & Muilly, on Market street, on two
occasions recently, and in the name of his father pur
chased several pieces of black paper muslin and
Italian cloth, which he sold at a liberal discount
to Messrs. Richard Annum, Solomon Mastbeam, and
ethers, representing in one instance that his father
had purchased the goods at the auction store of
Myers & ()bighorn, and in another instance that he
MB selling them on commission for his father. The
case was continued until last evening, when the
young man who attends the store from which the
goods were obtained gave In his evidence as to sell- •
ing the godds to the boy in the name of his father.
Samuel L. • Plumingthal charged" the defendant •
with larceny. He had employed him several months
since to attend his Store. He missed some hanks of
sewing silk and pieces of muslin, but never once
thought the boy had stolen them. Since - his arrest,
yesterday, he charged him with having purloined
the goods from him'
t and he made a full acknow-•
ledgment of having . ..aken several pieces of muslin
and Italian• cloth.. Under this, state of facts the
Memnon committed the defendant to answer the
charges of false. pretences and larceny. The de
fendant seemed to be much downcast at finding him
self in an unenviable position, and the prison -house
in the perspective. , , . _
Big Haul of Stolen Army Clothing.
Last evening, under the 'direction of Chief Frank
lin, several pretty large loads of made-up army cloth
ing were brought to the Central Station. We are
only prepared to say; at this stage
.of the proceed
ings, that a manufacturer' of army clothing, who
employed a large number of operatives, found hie
garments short in point of number. Among other
expedients resorted to, he put a private mark upon
a part of the trimmings, Po that he might know the
clothing if he should ever see it again. In the course
of time he found another manufacturer selling army
clothing equal, in point of quality and make, with
his own, but at a far cheaper rate. On making a
minute examination he discovered his private mark
upon the coats his brother manufacturer had for pale.
This was made known to Chief Franklin, who.sent
his detectives yesterday afternoon to " work up the
job," and the result of their labors was seen at the
Central Station last evening.„Enough coats had
been recovered to fit out at lest one company of.
soldiers. The people who had taken the clothing
out to make up sold the goods to manufacturer num

LEGAL INTELLIGENCE,
The courts yesterday were almost entirely barren
of business. A warrant of arrest case was heard by
Judge Sharswood, in the District Court No. 2, and
the District Court No. I was obliged to adjourn at
an early hour, without trying a single case. The
United States Circuit Court, Judge Cadwalader,
was in session, and the case of Jenks vs. The Collec
tor and Assistant Collector of the Fifth Collection
district, was called up, but by agreement was con
tinued. The other courts were not in session.
