No Business Transacted in Common Coun cil—The Contested Sent of Mr. Miller, of Select Council—A Committee Appointed to Investigate the Facts of the Case. SELECT BRANCH. The PRESIDENT laid before the Council n commu nication, complaining of a defective sewerage in Christian street, west of Twenty-second. Mr. GIN NODO offbred a resolution authorizing the President of each Chamber to appoint ajoint special committee of live members on cleaning the streets. Adopted. Mr. CATIFETZWOOD submitted a resolution direct ing the clerk of Select Council to purchase copies of Biglees Manual, one for each member. Mr. DAVIS moved to amend by adding "a copy of Purdon , s Digest." Mr. Girmono moved to amend that the clerk be . directed to purchase for each member a green bag, with which to carry home his documents. Thetimendments were not agreed to. The resolu tioli*as adopted. Mr. ark:l - Visit offered a resolution of condolence in reference: : titithe death of Major Rosengartcn. The reriatutton- was adopted, with an amendment that Independence Hall be tendered to the relatives of the decettied, in order that the remains may lie there in state. The Chamber now proceeded to draw the commit tee to try the contested seat of Mr. E. Spencer Mil ler, of the Twenty-fourth ward. The roll being called, Mr. ZANJ said that the pe tition protesting against the right of Mr. Miller was illegal, and should not have been admitted. He stated that the Consolidation act required that such n petition should he accompanied with a certificate from the prothonotary or commissioner of the .eounty. This petition had no such certificate no -companying it. Mr. AnstsTno:co thought that, as the petition had :already been received, no other course was open then to draw the committee. Mr. ZANE said that besides the objection lie first pointed out, there is another one yet, as important. The law requires that the petition be pre sented within ten days after the organization of Councils, and must be signed by fifteen citizens, one or more of whom must make oath " that the facts as set forth are true." The committee must be drawn within five days after the presentation of the petition. Mr. 13ni air= believed that the law required such a certificate, but it was not too late for the petition to be amended, as this was the tenth day. Mr.' DAVIS thought it would be unjust to the re spondent to allow the petition to be amended. Mr. BRH;nTI.T said that since the subject had been discussed he had made an examination into the law upon the subject, and was now convinced that it was not necessary to have the certificate of the commissioners to the petition. The debate was continued at very great length. Mr. BraoliTLY said that he had been handed an affidavit -in proper form, and a certificate from the commissioner, which the petitioner desired to ap pend to the petition. Mr. 33. moved that he have leave to so amend the paper's. The PRESIDENT decided the motion out of order. Mr. 13monmy appealed from the decision of the Chair, and proceeded to put his appeal in'writing. Mr. M,x.ri in suggested a postponement of the matter until Thursday; then he would not oppose the appointment of a committee. Mr..BnieiliTLy had no objection to the postpone ment, after the petition had been amended. The appeal of - Mr. Brightly was then presented, and Mr. Davis took the chair, Linn briefly explained the reason for the de cision he had made, and said that he had been guided by a desire to dispense impartial justice.. The Chair was not sustained. The yeas and nays were as follows : YEAS—Messrs: DAVlSGinnodo, Greble, Nanuel, Paulin, Riche, Spe ring, 'Uhler. Bane-9. NAYS—Messrs. Armstrong, Baird, Baum, Brightly, Catherwood, Harris, Kamerly, King, Marcus, Mc- Elroy, Nicholson, Ricketts, and Weaver-13. The question now being upon the motion of Mr. Brightly, that the petitioner be allowed to amend his peti&m, An affidavit of three of the signers of the petition, and a certificate signed by the City Commissioner, were presented. Mr. SPEr.ucu objected to the reception of the cer tificate, on the ground that .it states the persons whose names are attached to the " foregoing papers" are qualified voters. This certificate is not attached to any "foregoing" paper. Mr. DAVIS said that it was difficult to understand how any public officer should have put his name to a paper under the circumstances. The speaker was bitterly severe on the negligende of the officer. The motion to allow the petitioner to amend his petition was agreed to, Mr. Brightly voting with the Democrats. Mr. Ricwa presented a protest against the recep tion of the petition. Mr. GINNODO, one protesting against the reception of the certificate of the City Commissioner. Mr. SPIMING moved that the whole matter be postponed. Tot agrea to. (Mr. Brightly voted with the Republicans.) Mr. Srlmizio moved to adjourn. Not agreed to. The drawing of the committee was then proceeded with. The names were called in the following or der: Mr. Brightly, no challenge. Mr. Greble, challenged by Mr. Lowry. Mr. Nicholson, " Mr. Miller. Mr. McElroy, ii ti Mr. Catherwood, " IS Mr. Ricketts, it Mr. Manuel, " Mr. Lowry. Mr. Armstrong, " Mr. Miller. ' Mr. Zane, " Mr. Lowry. Mr. Kamerly, " Mr. Miller. As it was necessary that thirteen members should be chosen; the remaining members of Select Council were constituted the committee. They were called by the President as follows : Messrs. Paulin, Riche, Uhler, Davisl Ginnodo, Spering, (Republicans,) Baird, King, Baum, Marcus, Barris, and Weaver, (Democrats.) The committee then retired for a short time, in order that Six of their number should be selected as the committee on the contested election, the law re quiring the number to be seven, Mr. Brightly, of course, being a member, as his name was first called, and he was not challenged. The committee were then Teported as follows : Messrs. Brightly, Paulin (R.), Riche (R.), Baird (R.), Uhler (H.), Harris (D.), and Weaver (D.) This committee agreed that the hearing of the case be fixed at this afternoon at d o'clock, The Council then adjourned. COMMON COUNCIL. Messrs. Kenn end TRE.Go took their accustomed seats at three o'clock. . Mr. KERR called the Council to order, and Mr. Lutte, clerk, read the call, the Republican members, -with the exception of Mr. Sulger, not answering to their names. Two communications, protesting against Messrs. Jones and Shalicross being admitted as members of Council, were laid upon the table.. Mr. KERR then stated, that in accordance with an agreement made in the Supreme Court, no busi ness would be transacted to-day. A motion that Council now adjoUrn was agfeed to. Mr. Timm then said—" The members will come to order, and the clerk will call the roll." Mr. Gonnox, clerk, called the roll, the Democratic members not answering. Mr. LEIGIt presented a petition, protesting against the right of Mr. George W. Nichola to hold his seat in Council. Mr. SimrsoN presented a petition from the citi zens of the 2d wnrd, protesting against the right of Mr. Loughlin to hold his seat in Councils. Both petitions were laid on the table. Council thell adjourned. ANIMAL MEETING OF :MANAGERS ANTI CONTRinterons ov Wows.' 'HosriTAL.—The annual meeting of the managers and contributors of the Women's Hospital of Philadelphia was held at the hospital building, North College avenue and Twenty-second street, at half past three o'cloCk, yesterday afternoon. Those ' %litho are acquainted with the location will at once - recognize in it a pecu liar aptitude for the purpose to which it is at pre sent applied. The situation is retired, the prospect pleasing and open, and the atmosphere peculiarly clear and salubrious. The building itself, though not originally constructed for its present purpose, is yet extremely well adapted for it. Two houses, intended as private residences, are merged by inter-communi cation into one. The medical college occupies•four rooms on the east side, drat floor; the remainder of the building constitutes the hospital. The two lec ture rooms, the laboratory, and the museum; are fitted up with everything to advance the intelli gence of the students, the museum, in particular, boasting no mean collection. The rooms through out the hospital are all large and airy, possessing the grand requisites so often wanting in invalids' apartments. At yesterday afternoon's meeting the second an nual report of the Board of Managers was read. The hospital itself has•been in existence since last October a year, although the college has flourished for some ten or twelve years. The annual-report comprises the board of advisers, the medical board, the committee on admission of patients, and the matron's report. The report states that the termi nation of the first year of the' ,Organized ex istence of the institution has proved not only the pleasantness but also the heattliful ness of its situation. No sickness had originated in the house, and the location itself seemed to have been beneficial to those admitted. The ground rent upon one of the two lots belonging to the pro perty had been cancelled, in part by subscriptions for the purpose, and in part by a loan of the Phila delphia savings' . Fund. The other ground rent had been purchased by a friend of the hospital, who held the institution account able but for the sum of fifty dollars annual ly. A course of lectures was now in progress in the rooms of the Female Medical College of Penn sylvania, occupying part of the first floor: Several members of the class are boarding in the college, thus securing the opportunity of uniting practice with theory. The training of a superior class of nurses had been one of the objects of the institution. Sixty-two patients had been received as inmates du ring the year. Twenty-five of these were obstetrical cases, twenty-four , medical, and fourteen surgical. Forty-one had been discharged well, six improved, five unimproved, mullt iv° not treated. Three had died. The mean term of residence had been five weeks. Ten had paid in part or in full for their accommoda tions. The nativity of house patients was, Ameri cans, 22 ; Irish, 31 ; English, 4 ; German, 3 ;_ colored, 2. Their civil condition, married 27; widows, 12; single women,l6 ; children, 7. 1,142 persons had been treated in the dispensary, and furnished with medi cines; 213 have been visited and treated gratuitously at their own homes. The nativity of these was, American, 1,005; Irish; 259; English, 51 ; German, 37• colored, 11; Welsh, 6; Scotch, 5; French, 1. The civil condition of dispensary and clinic patients was: married, 411 ; widows, 119; single women, 173•, children, 600. Two thousand nine hundred and thirty-three prescriptions have been furnished these, and thirty.three vaccinations performed. Through all the fluctuations of the times, the hand of .Provi dence had been evident in supporting and encou raging this institution, and as it had succored it in time past, so was it to be looked to for support•in the future. The following officers were re-elected: President—Anne D. Morrison. Treasurer—Martha Ann Warner. .Recording Secretary—Emeline F. Holloway. . Corresponding Secretary—Ann Preston, M. D. Chief Reaident Physician—Mrs. Emeline H. Cleve land, M: D. ' • • DISCHARGED SOLDIERS.—Among the dai ly arrivals at the Citizens' Hospital, Broad and Prime streets, by the cars of the Philadelphia, 'Wil mington, and Baltimore railroad, are large numbers of discharged soldiers, many of whom are in such a feeble condition of health that their further trans portation is an impossibility. They are kindly -takeh In charge by the managers of the institution, .and treated with their usual hospitality. Some of -the soldiers have died, and quite a number have • been, after a recuperation of several weeks, for warded to their homes. RAILROAD CARS FOR THE WEST INDIES. —A number of locomotives and railroad cars have iecently been constructed in this city, intended for the West Indies. Yesterday a passenger-railroad car was shipped to Sagua by Messrs. Madeira gr. Ca bada: Two cars and a locomotive wore shipped by the same 'firm to Cienfuegos, intended to run be tween that point and Villa Clara. ACCIDENT.—About one o'clock yesterday .morning, a man named John Ramsey, the driver of .a carriage, was run into by the New. York train, at Fifteenth and Brandywine streets, and was badly :injured. He was removed to his home, near Tenth and Walnut streets, by Messrs. illeßrian and Wal ter, of the police force. A NEW CpIINTERFEIT " FIVE "-DOLLAR note on the Lyons , Bank, Lyons, New York, made its appearance yeasterday. It can be known by these signs : Vignette, three females and ornamental five ; oars and ships in distance; V on eaoh side of vignette inedallion-head 5 above FIVE below, on right end; female with scales and 5 on left. , THE NEW Powr OFFICE.—The new post office on Chestnut street will be roady for occupation in about three Weeks, T Y. orneter. Isaac B. Garrigues, Esq., recording secretary, and Frederick Fraley corresponding secretary. Mr. Howson exhibited a large number of looks of an improved pattern. Mr. H. exhibited also an im proved burner for coal oil lamps, invented by Emil Tritten. The wick tube: is so isolated that although it is firmly attached to the burner, the heat from the flame cannot be conveyed to the reservoir 'so as to vaporize and thus waste the oil ; also an extremely simple and ingenious burner for coal oil lamps, the invention of W. 0. B. Merril, of this city. An im proved revolving pistol for metallic cartridges, the' cylinder of which, on withdrawing the centre pin, may be pushed to one side ivithotit entirely detach h; it from the frame. The advantage being that the . pistol may be loaded and the spent cases removed without any liability of hieing the cylinder by de taching it. The centre pin passes through a key so connected to the front of the frame that it may also be .turned to the side and the pin pushed back through the openings in the cylinder, thereby forcing out the cases of the discharged cartridges. A belt fastener invented by Messrs. Liebrich and Utting, of this city, was exhibited. Two eccentric rollers, the surface of which are so foruted as to pre sent a series of longitudinal ribs having sharp edges, are connected together at the ends by metal plates, in which the journals of the rollers turn. When the surfaces of the rollers are farthest apart, the ends of the stritp or belt may be passed upwards between them. On attempting to withdraw the strap, how ever, the rollers are turned, and the surfaces brought nearer together, securing between them the ends of the belt, which are prevented from. slipping out by the sharp edges, or ribs, on the rollers, which hold the ends together with a grip increasing with the force applied to separate the ends of the strap. A combined rule, square, level, etc:, presented by. C. A. Miller, Esq., was exhibited by Mr. H. The frame of the rule is of metal, filled with vulcanized rubber, which fcirms in the present instance the body of the instrument, although other substances may be used. By means of a strip of metal joint ed, and contained within the rule, and a spirit-level in a recess in the edge of the same, a number of operations, each heretofore requiring. a separate instrument, may be performed. G. F. Witsera patent combined washing machine and clothes-wringer was exhibited. In rt• triangu jar reservoir vibrates a similarly-shaped dasher, which is so constructed as to form a receptacle for the clothes, which, as the dasher is vibrated, are cleaned by the water which passes through openings in the sides of the dasher and through the interstices of the clothes. The journals of two rubber-covered rollers turn in the opposite sides of the reservoir, and are so situated that the clothes may be taken from the dasher and passed directly between the • rollers. Mr. T. J. Wagner exhibited a thermo•multiplier, an extremely neat and sensitive instrument, made by himself. The chief merit consists in the com pactness, the whole of the essential parts occupying a spacibut little larger than two cubic inches. Mr. "W. stated that a fly on the bars would deflect the needle from three to five degrees. A COMMENDABLE ENTERPRISE.—The Cen- tral Soldiers; Aid Society, which has been making up garments - weekly since the establishment of the Central Hospital, and the one at Filbert and Six teenth streets, has now exhausted all of the mate rials anti material aid, heretofore furnished by the generous beneficence of our citizens. None of our readers save those in the habit of visiting the hospitals, or of taking in the work of. furnishing needed supplies:forthe sick and wounded soldiers brought to our midst from the battle-fields or camp, can have any adequate Idea of the results n of the efforts of such societies as this one. They are most valuable auxiliaries to the hospitals them selves, inasmuch as they are designed to Procure for the patients such necessary comforts, that the Go vernment does not afford, as each particular case maylequire. This Central Soldiers' Aid Society has been thus doing a great work for two large hospitals of our city—a work of humanity to the brave men who have jeoparded their health and limbs and lives in support of the Government. . The society meets every Friday morning, in the church at Twelfth and Cherry streets, and we feel confident that our readcrs,when they know its wants of fresh supplies, will not allow the enterprise •to languish, and its heroic benefidiaries to suffer from want of contributions of money and of goods. • Supreme Court of Pennsylvania—Mite( Justice Lowrie and Justices Woodward, •Thompson, and Strong. ARE TILE CONFEDERATE STATES PUMMO ENEMIES. The Monongahela Insurance Company of Pitts burg, plaintiff in error; vs:Thomas It.' - Chester, for use of James A. Hutchison, defendant in error. Amongst the cases from the Western District, argued yerttertlay, this very interesting one was presented. The action in the court below was on a policy of in . surance issued by the Monongahela Insurance Com pany on the steamer Mohawk, for the sum of $5,000, on account of Thomas R. Chester, loss payable to James A. Hutchison, for a period of one year, front the 23d of October, 1860 the steamer being privileged • to navigate the Ohio river and its .tributaries, the Mississippi river to and between New Orleans, "Lou isien a, and Keokuk, lowa, andihe Illinois river; . the perils insured against being of the seas, lakes, rivers, tiresi enemies, pirates, assailing thieves, and all such losses and damages which shall come to the damage of said steamboat. The Mohawk left Pittsburg on the 18th of April, 1861., on a voyage to New Orleans, where she ar rived on the 18th. of May following, and left that place for the city of Pittsburg on the 20th of the same month, on her trip upward touching as usual at the ports and towns on the Mississippi river. 'While at Memphis, in the State of Tennessee, that place being a port of entry above tidewater, she was openly and forcibly seized, and taken out of the pos session and control of the captain and crew, by per sons assuming to act, and notoriously and in fact, acting, under authority conferred for that and simi lar purposes by the pretended Government of the Confederate States, then actually engaged in armed rebellion against the United States, and the boat was detained and confiscated. The captain and crew resisted and protested against the seizure by evet y means in their power, until compelled to fly in fear of their lives, and abandon the steamer as a • total loss. The seizure and capture occurred within the period for which the steamer was insured, and notice of her total loss and abandonment was duly served on the company. The case was presented to the court below on a case stated, which we have substantially embodied in our narrative, and the question presented was whether the loss was caused by any of the perils enumerated in, or covered by, the policy; whether the captors were "enemies, pirates, or assailing; thieves." The court decided that "in every.legiti mate sense of the word they are public enemies to the Government, and loyal citizens of the United States, as much so as the people of England or Pram ce, or any other foreign nation would be; if ac tually engaged in war with us." And the court fur ther decided that the perils of "assailing thieves" were alto covered by the policy - , Baying • " These captors took this vessel from the control , and possession of . the officers and crew by force, and putting them in fear for their lives. Their act, then, was either justifiable or it was robbery. If justi fiable, it must be because they had rightful authori ty to do so. But the only authority they pretended to have was derived from the pretended Government of the sb-called ' Confederate States of America,' which is nothing more nor less than an organized band of traitors, in open rebellion against the Government of the United States, whose lives and property have long since been forfeited for their treason. And every act done by themselves, their aiders or abettors, in furtherance of their wicked de signs,'only involves the perpetrators in deeper crime. It is very clear, therefore, they had no rightful authority whatever for their act." . Judgment was entered in favor of plaintiff, for E5,C00, with interest front September Ist, 1861. rror was assigned to this decision. Argued by Hamilton and Acheson for plaintiff in error, and by Wm. M. Shinn for defendant in error. The following other eases were also argued-- Brown and Corey—Allegheny county. Argument concluded by Arr. Penney. Nancy J. Painter, administratrix of Geo. Painter, demised, vs. the Mayor of Pittsburg, Allegheny county. Argued by Geo. P. Hamilton for plaintiff in error, and by Messrs. White and Seagle for de fendantin error. James P. Sterrett, administrator of Lorenz vs. Thos. Wightman et al. Allegheny county. Argued by John P. Penney and Jas. H. Hopkins for com plainants, and by J. J. Mitchell for respondents. These concluded the Pittsburg list, and the court adjourned until this morning. THE FEANKLIN INSTITUTE. —A stated monthly meeting of the Franklin Institute was held last evening at their hall, en Seventh, above Chest nut street. The following gentlemen were elected officers for the ensuing year: John C. Cresson, Esq., president. John Agnew, Esq., and Matthias W. Baldwin, vice presidents. TITE U. 'S. SAVING FUND.—The institu tion known as the United States Life Insurance, Annuity, and Trust Company, located in the brown stone building at the southeast corner of Third and Chestnut streets, as a saving fund for, several years past, has recently exploded. The building in which the company have been doing their business has been levied upon and sold by the sheriff several times during the past year, having been, it would ap pear, bought in by themselves each time, but has at last gone into other hands, and is now occupied by other parties.fiThe circumstances attending this fail ure are such that we understand active steps are being taken to have a judicial investigation. The, depositors are represented by Hugh F. Kennedy, Esq., who will, no doubt, have the subject tho roughly sifted. The effects of the failure of this concern will be wide-iipread, as it har. always been looked upon as reliable. Great numbers of the poorer classes, but ill able to bear their loss, espe cially at this time, will be the sufferers. FOUNDLING.—An-infant of apparently but a few weeks old was found upon the steps of a house on Shippen street, near Tenth, at an early hour yesterday morning. The child was neatly dressed, and had pinned on its dress a paper containing these words: "Take me in and treat me well, for in this house my father dwells.", SIGNOR BLITZ AT THE HOSPITALS.—Sig. Blitz is administering to the pleasures of the wound ed soldiers in our midst, by giving afternoon enter tainments at the various hospitals. They are hugely enjoyed by the inmates. Ruv OvE.R.--Last night, a boy named Wm. Costello, was run over by an ash cart, at Fourth and Thompson streets, and was seriously in jured. He was conveyed to the St. Joseph's Hospital. LEGAL INTELLIGENCE. District Court—Judge 'Hare. THE USE OF CJILOROFORM. John P. Bogle . irs. Henry G. Winslow. Before re.; ported. The features of this case are so interesting, and the subject they concern of such importance to the community, that we have been led to prepare a rather extended report of the case. Our notice yes tet day was a brief one, because we were not then in possession of all the facts of the case. We may now state it as follows : On the 21st of April last, the plaintiff, a driver on the Tenth and Eleventh streets railway, who was suffering with the tooth-ache, was induced by the recommendation of a lady friend to call upon the defendant for the purpose of having some teeth and the roots of decayed others extracted, while under the influence of chloroform. Dr. Winslow was re cognized by the profession as.one eminently skilful in the use of this anisthetic agent, and patients were frequently taken to him by other physicians. On the day named, Sunday, the plaintiff accord ingly called on him, and the chloroform was ad ministered and the roots extracted. Before this had been successfully accomplished, however, it was found to be necessary to administer the chloroform in large quantities, and for three interfere of an hour and in the intervals between the drawing of the ditiOrent teeth and toots, as signs of returning con. sciousness a speared. The opera ion completed, Mr. Bogle left, in com pany. with his lady friend, but the influence of the volatile fluid was still apparent. He staggered like a drunken man, and was obliged to lean on his com panion for assistance. He grew worse after that; his tongue thickened so that his articulation became indistinct, and finally, on the fourth day, he was st rink with paralysis of the left side. Dr. Winslow was called in, and treated him for this sickness for four weeks, at the end of which time, no perceptible relief 'having been afforded, another physician, Dr. Longahore, was employed, ur.der whose treatment he remained until the 24th of .Tuly, when he was able partially to resume his rmployment—acting as substitute conductor. For the loss sustained by him by reason of his sickness and continued inability to attend to ? duties this suit was instituted. . _ . Dr. Longshore, who was examined, testified that, after hearing the testimony in the case, he inferred that the chloroform was the cause of the paralysis; never knew chloroform to be given without produ cing paralysis; that is its purpose; it is not perma nent, however; there - are cases reported in the books of paralysis or the tongue, resulting from the use of chloroform; never heard of a case of paralysis of the side; chloroform might produce paralysis of the side by reason of its effect upon the brain; cerebral hemorrhage produces paralysis; never heard of a case of cerebral hemorrhage produced by chloroform; the kick of a horse will produce it; dd not think it resulted front such a cause in this case; there fts no standard for dose of chloroform; the operator must he governed by the action of the patient; if the effect was not produced in three-quartereot an hour. I would stop the use of the chloroform, as I would be I afraid of the consequence; there might .have been an injury to the brain, brought into action by the use of chloroform, but if it resulted from injuries received two months before, there would be complaints on the part of the patient. Dr. Harbeson, who was also called for the plain tiff; testified that in his experience he knew of a case where paralysis was caused by the use of chloroforin, A tumor had been removed from the left breast of a patient, while under the in fluence of chloroform, and paralysis ensued. He also testified that it was considered a dangerous agent, and was, for that reason, not used at the Pennsylvania Hospital. He had known of death resulting from its use. The defence set up was, that Dr. Winslow was' graduate of twenty years' practice, eminently skill ed in the use of chloroform, and that no matter how large the quantity used, or the length of its applica tioni•no such effect as paralysis could 'result. Be sideli it-was on evidence that in the preceding January the plaintiff had been kicked in the breast by one of his car horses, hurled over the .tlaaher into the street, and against the curb, his litinel violently striking a lamp-post, and it was con tacted that this was more likely to have been the cause of the paralysis. Eminent physicians, among them Drs. Gross and Goddard, were called in support of these allegation's. Dr. Gross' testimony embodies the whole, and we present it in substance as follows : Dr. S. D. Gross, Professor of Surgery at the Jeffer son College, testified that chloroform is regarded by the profession in general as a proper agent to relieve pain ; it is one of the approved remedies of the pro fession ; in the present case he considered the length of time . resulted from the want of the proper number of assistants by Dr. Winslow ; don't think there is any case on record, except two referred to by Dr. Longshon, that chloroform caused paralysis • Mete two are cases reported by Dr. Haphold of South Carolina, and these cases are not authentic ; I have given chloroform since 1842, and under almost all. circumstances, to a child of six weeks of age, and to a person of 75 years of age ; I have given it to all classes ' and never witnessed any ill effects from it; I do not think that the paralysis in this case was the result of the use of chloroform ; in my judgment it bail nothing to do with it. Dr. Gross then explained the effect of a concussion of the brain in producing paralysis ; several months might elapse between the injury and the paralysis ; I think it not unlikely that the patient would com plain of headache, he., though it does not follow that he would actually complain; if the Nan had not been kicked by a horse I would not attribute the paralysis to chloroforth from what I know of its effects. Dr. Snow, of London, in a late work issued by him, states that he had administered chloroform for fourteenyears, and he never knew any perma nently ill ettacts to be produced by it ; I have given several ounces to patients; in Louisville I gave a man eight ounces, and kept him under its in fluence for three hours ; I have every confidence in Dr. Winslow's skill. . Cross-examinetl.—Chloroform, like many other agents which a physician is obliged to use, is dan gerous; eo is laudanum, he. Question. If improperly used would it • noti pro duce paral3 sis 7 Answer. No, sir. Question. Would it be improper to continue the use of chloroform after a patient has resisted its influence for nearly three-quarters of an hour Answer. No, sir; I should continue for five hours until raccornplished my object ;.I hair° taken chlo rofoim myself; , a 'patient .who resists. only proves that he has not taken enough. . Judge Hare left the question of negligence or un skilfulness to the jury, and they found a verdict for the defendant. The case was very ably managed on both sides, and enlisted the greatest attention. J. P. O'Neill, Esq., appeared for the plaintiff; and . D. Webster, Esq., for defendant. • Supreme Court of the trulted States at Washington, D. C. , • WEDNF.S.DAT, January 14:—On motion of Hon. George E. Pugh, Hon. Warren P.

['Before Mr. Alderman BoItlerj: Alleged Dealers In Connterfellt Motel. .ek case was heard"before Alderpan'Beitler, yester day afternoon, which posseses—ntore thali ordinary interest. at this particular period. Two brothers, named Beverly Bloomer and George L. Bloiamer, ClMadians by birth, .but recently in the employ of the rebel government, were arrested at a grocery store, corner of Fourth .and Diamond streets, yes terday, on the charge of dealing in counterfeit money. They wire keepers Of the store, and from sundry papers found in their possession, they have had something. to do in - counterfeit notes even-in the distracted land of Secession. The evidence, as developed, relates the story in plain language, and from it the reader can gain an insight as to some of the business of the detective police. The defendants were represented by Wm. M. Bull, Esq.. In order to be prsperly understood, and to make our report complete, we may state that De tectives Henderson, Taggert, Levy, and C}. H. Smith are the ones who "put up " the affair. Samuel Smith, of the Sixth-ward police, was the instrument used to bring the parties to justice. How the offi cers obtained the first intimation of the affair need not - , for prudential reasons obvious to the reader, be told publicly. The prisoners are tall, thin• faced persons, rather seedy in regard to clothing, hair long and black, and seemed struck with more than astonishment at their present position. . TUE EVIDENCM Samuel R. Smith was called to the stand. On be ing sworn, he testified. that about. the latter part of - December, or the first of. January, he went to the . house of one of the defendants to get some counter - felt money ; he said he had none, and told me to come the next day ; I went there and got these notes ; _(here witness handed a number of three-dollar notes, - Black River Bank, to the alderman; some are printed on pink or reddish paper, and others on pale green ; as a work of art thchngravin is excellent;) I also purchased more at another time; and this morning purchased these notes ; (here the notes were' displayed before the magistrate ;) this is all I.have to say.

Smith sWorn.bi'lleers Levy, Tag gert, Henders'on, and myself, arrested these men; found this order on the shelf in their store, asking for counterfeit money. (Note produced.) It was di reeled' to Sam Stewart, for $9O in queer. Mr. Bull interposed, and said this was no evidence. What has Sani Stewart to do with this 1 Who is Sam Stewart? I know a Sam Stewart who is now fight ing for our country. Mr. Smith replied, by way of parenthesis, the Sand Stewart alluded to is an old koniacker. Mr. Bull, firing up with some degree of warmth— Well, konlacker.or not, what evidence is there the note alluded to counterfeit notes? The word queer can't be fotind• in any acknowledged dictionary. Mr. Smith. "Oh, we understand it." ' Mr. Bull: " Oh yes; you officers understand a great deal." Mr. Smith smiled, but made no reply, and left the stand. • Joshua Taggert was called. He found this letter, asking for one hundred dollars. [Letter produced.] One of the'prisoners here interposed, and said that the letter was written by his brother, in North Caro lina, and.what he wanted was a hundred dollars, in Southern bank notes. This letter, contended Mr. Taggert, came this morning, while we were there. We took the liberty of looking at it ; and here it is. Samuel .Ilenderson testified; that having called upon the Bloomers, I told them I wanted $lOO, for which I would give $4O; one of them swore he'd do no such thing; he would not take less than $5O; was to meet him at Second and Race streets; he asked me if I wanted any of the Wilmington stuff; I told him yea, I'd take all he could fetch. The evidence here closed. The defendants were committed in default of $2,000 bail to answer. A number of documents were found upon the prisoners, of which we present the following as specimens : DIAIICII 19th, 1861. George L. Bloomer is exempt from militia duty, by the Board of Exemptions of the. city of Rich mond, it having been certified to me . by the War Department to be necessary to the interests of the Government of the Confederate States. . . 8.0.

' Parkersville, March 27th, 1861, is the date of a letter signed by Jamesßloomer., It is written part ly in ink, and finished with lead-pencil, the letter being signed as follows: "I wrote this for your father, G. W. Bush." This letter is directed to Beverly and George Bloomer, and from its .date, 186 l; it would seem that some parties, were - doing 11 1) the fancy business, even in Secessia, about the time of the breaking out of the rebellion.. The precious document sets forth that "Charles hai spent all the money you sent him, and cleared out, after passing all the spurious money—Devine has taken all the personal property. * *. * Charles has paid bad money, and dare not come home. lam getting old, and want a little help." In conclusion, we may say that the defendants have been under the surveillance of the police for three weeks. The result of their labors is furnished in the above report of the proceedings of yester day. Fully Committed. Edward Tilden (colored). employed as coachman by W. B. Mann, District Attorney, had a final . hearing, before Alderman Beltler, yesterday after noon. Francis Lewis testified that Tilden came into his place of business, near Sansom and Eighth streets, on Wednesday, and said he found a check ,• witness looked at it ; it was drawn for four hundred dollars ; the defendant wanted witness to go to the bank and thaw it ; witness replied, " Do you think Pm a fool defendant replied " No, but 1 guess the check is good ;" witness ordered him out, and finally kicked him out into the street, and then went after an officer ; defendant in the meantime tore the check into small pieces and threw them on the paveMent, and then went into a watch-maker store in Chestnut street Witness had, the accused ar rested, and then, with Officer Clark, picked the pieces up and gummed them together in the best manner possible. While on the way to the station. house, the defendant said to witness, "If you'd took the cheek to the bank you could have 'drawn the money. The defendant denied saying so. Mr. Mann was present !luring the investigation. The prisoner was committed in default of $1,200 to answer. It may be hese stated that the figure 3 in the check is ex actly like the same figure in a small account book kept by the defendant. T.lnjustlfinble Pkosecution. - - Mr. Petry, who was no doubt greatly annoyed by a prosecution instituted by John Rea, has gone clean through the ordeal lilce pure gold. A more unjust prosecution has not fallen under our profes sional notice for many years. Mr. Petry has always stood before this community'as a highly honorable excellent public caterer—a man of the most sterling integrity, who certainly holds his prosecutor at his mercy. The case was to have been further investigated before Alderman Beitler yesterday afternoon, but instead of the prosecutor appearing, he Pent a note, which was handed to the alderman. The following is a true copy: "PuitamicLantn, January 15, 1363. "I sincerely regret having instituted the charge of -larceny against you before the _Mayor and Alderman I3eitler. I am convinced that. I was in error in adopting any such step, and that I have unjustly subjected your character to suspicion and yourself to injury by my proceeding.

[Before Mr. Alderman Welding.) Discharged. Mr. Sohn Freed, who was arrested a day or two since on the charge of the larceny of $.50, was finally heard before Alderman Welding yesterday after noon. The accuser, Lewis Ross, is a native : . of Bo hemia, and cannot understand the English language CI 6 4 4 RIDAY JANUARY 16. 1863 . very well. He underwent a long cross-examination. and seemed to contradict himself•in several import. ant particulars. The bar-tenders were present at the' hearing and said that the soldier handed .to Mr. Freed the sum of -$2O, and not $6 ), and that it was all exhausted by the prosecutor spending it in champagne wine,, &e. Under these circumstances, and the contradic. lions of the main or only witness, the alderman did' not think there was even probable cause made out. He therefore discharged the defendant from further custody. A novel case was adjudicated before the venerable Alderman Brazer yesterday morning, which is worthy of a place of record in these columns. While the alderman was enjoying the ingredients that com bined make- a •first-class breakfast, his office was• suddenly besieged with a crowd of persons, from Market street merchants down to the toil-worn day laborer. In front of the office. there was also a dense crowd of curious individuals, apparently anxious to .learn all the particulars of a horrible murder, that somebody supposed had taken place, The magistrate took hie position in his official chair and proceeded to investigate the offence. Two men—Mse,theoWner of a pair of dogs, the other hold- • ing hiiiirms a pet fox, with chain and collar-14); peered to bethe most interested. The person who had the fex in possession was Mr. O'Brien, .the superintendent of )Franklin Square. He stated that Alie•anlinataiadc his appearance in the square, and presently great crowds of every kind of inx>ple*came inside the enclosure. There was a general chase after thefox... Among the chasers was the young man with two dogs. The fox was finally pretty well run down, but the canines skedaddled every time the sly animal turned upon them. At last the superintendent caught the fox and claimed posses sion of it. " Well, sir,"' amid the aldermen to the other claim ant, "what harfe you to say in regard to 'your The young man replied, that if it had not been for his dogs, which. he ,took into the squarb, the fox would not have• hien' caught. :The dogs ,run him down, and he fell an easy prey to the captor, who now has him. "I suppose he has been pretty well chased, if we judge from his panting," replied the alderman. "Yea, sir, he was," replied the superintendent. • The alderman mused for a moment, and decided in substance tis follows : To the young man with the dogs, he' eaid : "You go home, and we'll say-no thing about the penalty you have incurred by•taking dogs into!' public- square, contrary:to the municipal - At this stage of•the proceedings a new idea broke., in upon the pining:luau ; and he replied,.

"Well, poisession, in such a case, is nine potties of the law—take the fox. with you, and perhaps :you • may find an owner." A buzz of satisfaction 'seethed to pervade: the • ciowdedniidiencoi. The office .was speedily leg - red, eachparty went 'h•Sx or- her way to reflectnpon the', termination of tub -impromptu fox chase, and the` alderman resumed. his-.breakfast.

Even where no particular disorder Is felt,people enjoy. better health, and live longer, for cleansing the blood. - Keep the blood healthy, and all is Well ; but with the pabulum of life disordered, there can be no lasting health. Sooner or later something must go Wrong, and the great machinery of life is disordered or overthrown. During late years the public have been misled by large bottles, pretending to give a quart of Extract of .Sarsa parilla for one dollar. Most of these have been frauds upon the sick, for they not only contain little, if any, Sarsaparilla, but often no curative properties whatever. Hence, bitter and painful disappointment has followed the use of the various extracts of Sarsaparilla which flood the market, until the name itself is justly despised, and has become synonymous with imposition and cheat. Still we call this compound Sarsaparilla, and intend to supply such a remedy as shall rescue the name from the load of obloquy which rests upon it. And we think we have ground for believing it has virtues which are irre sistible by the ordinary run of the diseases it is intended to cure. ' Prepared by Da. J. C. AYER & CO.

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 alike cases might be shown. • READ THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY. About twelve months ago I bad 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 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 was In constant misery. I was also suffering from all the horrors of Dyspepsia, loss of appetite; Nau sea, and frequent and severe attacks of vomiting; and so prostrated was my general system,-that -I was scarcely able to move about. I had availed myself of the science and skill of distinguished medical men, both of the Allo pathic and Homeopathic school, and exhausted their catalogue of remedies, but found only temporary relief. In this condition, when every ray of -hope seemed para lysed, 1 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 c,'^erations my Diabetes was controlled; and -other difft egliei zsin disappeared . ; my appetite has returned, sleep undisturbed, :Lad , in fact, I teal like one made anew. I would further state that I have seen other remark able cares performid - Vrof. Bolles, and would advise the diseased to call at • it: ''zut street, and be restored to health. I shall be glad one information calling on me. • TIMMAb 2AItROP, • Rose Mill, West Philadelphia. Philadelphia, May Ist, 1660. Reid the following from a preacher of the Methodist Episcopal Church, No. HITS 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 patholo.ical symptoms. How ever, Professor G.E. Bolles, by wlom I was cured, lo cated any' 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 in eight applications of Electricity.. administered by Pro fessor Bou.gs, 1.220 Walnut street, Philadelphia., I am perfectly cured ; and to me this is most astonishing, for I bad 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 accomplishbd 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 tojthe athicted of all classes. There seems to be no guesswork, no confision no matter of doubt in his treatment. Re proceeds on fixed principles, and according to axed 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 fails. I ad vise all of the diseased to try his treatment. EDWARD T. EVANS, Preacher in M. E. Church, NM HELMUTH Street, - . ANOTHER CURE OF PARALYSIS OF THE LOWER LIMES (Paraplegia) AND APOPLEXY 0011113I1TED Read the following: PHILADELPHIA, March 31, ISE3. Puontssoa Boum. IMO Walnut street: The remarka ble core which I have derived from your method of ap plying Electricity compels me -to thus acknowledge the great obligations I am underdo you for snatching me, ss it were, from immediate death. About two years ago, while a resident of Cincinnati, Ohio, I was visited. was an attack of paralysis of the lower extremities, which rendered me almost entirely unable to stand upon my limbs. I employed sonic 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 a fit or 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 alder your valuable treatment. After my arrival in Philadelphia my attention was called to your treatment by a pamphlet handed me by my father, which contaided_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 the benefits which I have re ceived through your treatment. Very respectfully yours, am., WILLIAM H. SERIN, Publisher of the National .2iferchant, office ]l6 South SECOND Street, Philadelphia. N. B.—lt will be well for the diseased to recollect that Prof. B. has given a word of caution in his pamphlet to guard them against trusting their health in the hands of those in this city claiming to treat diseases according to his discovery. This caution may seem severe on those using Electricity at hzsard, but it is the severity of truth, and designed for the good of humanity. See advertise ment in another column.
