S W THE TER-CENTRICAItY JITINLEE.—The introductory exercises of the Ter-centenary Jubilee in honor of the formation and adoption of the Hei delberg Catechism were Inaugurated by the dele gates in the German Reformed Church, Race street, below Fourth, on Saturday evening last, at seiren o'clock. The opening sermon was delivered by Rev: Samuel R. Fisher, D. D., from Hebrews ii, 1-3. . At the same time an opening sermon was discoursed . in the German tongue by Rev. Philip Schaff, D. - D., in the Salem German Reformed church, .St. John street, from Hebrews xiii, 7-8. Upon Sunday Rev. John W. Nevin,preached from Hebrews xiii, 8. The essay, "T he Organism of the Heidelberg Catechism," was read' in the evening by .Rev. T. G. Apple, of Greencastle, Pa. The regular exercises epcned yelterday MOrning at ten o'clock, in the Race-street German Reformed Church, (Race, below Fourth), Rev. Dr. Bomberger, pastor. After singing, the opening prayer was made by Rev. Dr. B. C. Wolff of Mercersburg. In low and earnest tones he thanked the good Providence which had permitted the assembly thus to meet to gether; he asked that in all that was said and done a due appfeciation of the result might be evinced. To hare a good conscience, Void of offence' toward man end God ; to' plant throughout all the vineyards of the Lord the blessed seed of their goodly 'heritage; to ever have a wish and will to pray to God for just reasoning and for right conclusions, and to ever give . praise to Him, to whom alone it was due—this should be the spirit moving the meeting. Rev. Mr. P. C. Prugh, of Xenia, Ohio, was then chosen secretary of the organization. It was moved and seconded that a committee con- Rioting of Rev. J. 0. Bucher, Rev. E. Kieffer, Rev. W. F. Colliflower be appointed to collect commis sions. Agreed to. The Committee of Arrangement to nominate permanent officers, for the Convention, and which consisted of Rev. hr. Harbaugh, Rev. Dr. Nevin, Rev. Mr. T. G. Apple, and Elder G. S. Griffith, retired to complete their arrangements, The Rev. Dr. Bomberger, and Elder James W. Santee, were ,appointed_ a committee to have a list of dele gate printed. The report of the Organization Com mittee gave the following list of officers 1 President, Rev. Jno. W. Nevin, D.

Upon taking his scat, the presidentremarked that his election to hie new position was altogether against his consent. He thanked those who had thus chpaen him for Die honor they had conferred. He hinuielf felt deeply the importance of .the occa sion whioh had called them together. No symbol in the Protestant Church possessed so much intrinsic interest as that attached to the Heidelberg Cate chit= inaugurated on the 19th January, 1563. In his own church,. and in the sister churches of the Netherlands, its principles had been inserted. The life of the present should always renew its connec tion with that of the past. All varieties of life must feed upon memory.:--can only live in connection with past history.' rThe object of the present celebration waskt.trestpre.enli quicken the sense of their histo iicateennegtjon'with the past of their Church. A conacktus connection with the past must ever be en tertain by him who would advance steadily in the path of improvement. The relations of the churches should be understood on all sidea. The old ecclesi astic relations have come to be almost entirely un known or misunderstood. If they are to break away from the influences of the sixteenth century, if they were to lose all sense of its efficacy, they might as well break away from Proteitantism altogether. The Church stood on a ground intermediate be tween the different sections of the Protestant move. ment. The German Reformed Church differs front Reformed Church of Holland, France, Switzerland, and Scotland. To retain its denominational history, should be the object of the Church. The one title, Reformed, should be so resuscitated as to be invested generally with something of its original meaning. To so reinstate it in its true place, as to be under stood by the New England Congregational Churches, and by its Presbyterian brethren, Old and New School, would be and should be a feature of the church's present action. The Church should have no desire to set itself in any unfriendly antagonism toward any other Church. if anything were certain, it was that Evangelical Protestantism, as a whole, cannot securely perpetuate its existence, except by adhering to the great principles of the sixteenth century. To hold to our denominational life and chh meter was not only proper; it was also necessary. This will bring out the true idea of the German Re formed Church in distinction from that other grand, Protestant confession, the Lutheran Church. As a distinct part of the Reformed Church in general, the German Reformed has its peculiar and important mission. The Lutheran confession has a grand mis sion of its own. These two might work together without sacrificing anything of vital interest in either. In conclusion, the speaker hoped that God would so lend his spirit to the meeting, as that its actions should redound to hie glory, and the truest interest of the Church. The essay composed by Rev. Dr. Hundeshagen, of Heidelberg, was then read. The reading occupied three , quarters of an hour. It had been translated, and was read by Prof. Thomas C. Porter, who was introduced to the assembly by Rev. Dr. Schaff, of the Theological Seminaries of Mercersburg and An dover. It was then moved by Dr. Bomberger that all the clergy from evangelical churches be invited to take seats and report their names. Agreed to. The second essay was then read by Rev. Dr. B. S. Schneck; of Ohambersburg. The subject was "Fre derick the Pious." Both of these essays were eru dite and perspicuous in the extreme. They dealt in history, and delineated the rise and progress of the Heidelberg Catechism, in its influence and results, with great for t e and accuracy. They were listened to with very great interest by a congregation at once intelligent and numerous. EVENING SESSION. The evening session was more fully attended than the morning. The exercises commenced with sing ing and prayer. The Rev. Dr. Ebrard, of Enlargen, Germany, delivered an essay upon the " Melanetho nian tendency, and its relation to the German Re formed Church." The logic of the discourse was clear, and its treatment very able. It was listened to with the utmost attention, and discussed with more than, ordinary interest. The assembly then ad joured, to meet again this morning at half past nine o'clock, at the same place. A COMAIBmIABLE ASSOCIATION. —The constant appeals for aid and sympathy on behalf of the suffering freedmen in various parts of the country induced a number of Friends of this city to form an association to furnish clothing, medicines, &c., to meet the temporary necessities of this destitute class of people. The society was organized April 15, 1862, since which time, with the exception of a few weeks during the summer, the meetings have been held weekly, on the third floor of the Friends' Meeting House, Face street above Fifteenth. Donations in money, goods, and part-worn cloth ing have been received from persons residing in this 'city and its vicinity, from Chester, Bucks, and Westmoreland counties, of this State and from the States of New York, New Jersey, Delaware, Mary land, and Indiana. The Association has endeavored to make a judi cious appropriation of the means entrusted to it for distribution, and from the acknowledgements re ceived from the various places to which the articles have been sent, the members are encouraged to. be .lieve that their efforts have accomplished the pur poses intended, ns far as the limited supply would 1,600 .new and about 2,000 part-worn garments, pieces of uncut goods, comfortables, books, medi eines, needles, thread, buttons, kc., 6r.c., which were packed in twelve boxes, have been sent to the fol lowing places and distributed: Washington, D.

It is constructed differently from the Monitor or Merrimac, and is designed to ride and crush, or sink any iron-clad whose sides are of an elevation less than fifty degrees. The boat is partially of a fiat bottom, and the bow is heavier than the stern. The smoke stack can be raised or lowered at option. The port holes are provided with a sliding door, which can be lowered •in an in stant. PormacAL.—The Democrats of the .city held elections last night, in the various precincts, for delegates to conventions that will, to-day, in their turn, elect delegates to the Gubernatorial Conven tion which meets at Harrisburg on the 19th of June. The primary conventions will assemble in their re spective districts this morning. The Democratic candidates for Governor are : John Cessna, Wm. H. Witte, H. Olymer, Jacob Fry, and Wm. Hopkins. It is thought that Mr. Witte will secure the election, in this city, of delegates favorable to him. THE UNITED STATES SCHOONER ALICE DEAN.—The United States schooner Alice Dean, two guns, from the Western Gulf Blockading Squa dron, arrived in Hampton Roads on• the 17th inst. The following is a list of her officers : Master Com manding, Richard F. Brinaley; acting master, David MacAlpin; acting master's mates, Alpha Child and Wm. I. Chippendale. This schooner was fitted out at the Philadelphia navy yard, and is, of course, an object of very general interest. A SAGACIOVB DOG.—A. very knowing canine is attached to the 'Good Intent Hose Com pany. He invariably distinguishes an alarm of tire from the striking of the hours. he is invariably the first to reach the doors of the Good Intent Hose house, Spruce street, above Sixth.

Mr. Cummings, of the Christian Commission, writes thus from Murfreesboro; dated January 11, to Mr. Stuart, President of the Commis- Ilion in this city : Dluninensisono, Jan 11.--In view of the fact that a • very large portion of the wounded, and, for the most part, the most severe cases, were iaeoessarily detained here, it waejleemed best to visit this place. 'Bev. Mr. BleAulley, with his forte and part of; my own, is laboring in the hospitals at Nashville. I have regretted very mtieh'that the storeg'had not arrived when we left, having shipp,ed'them from Louisville sonic hOurs before leaving there. You are aware,,perhaps, that twenty miles of tiler:ill road between Louisville and" Nashville have been destroyed by the rebel7Wforgan and his banditti, Eight miles of tfie dist/ince our party were compelled - to walk. The UnionxbUnded in the late battle are to be found in Nashville, anti in the hospitals on the turn pike from Nashville and the balance in this town. In addition to these, there are about 1,500 rebel wounded here. The condition of things is sad, in deed, and at least a fortnight must elapse before the disorder and confusion that now prevails gives place to system and regularity. The wounded are crowded together in public and private houses, most of whom are severely wounded, whilst considerably the largest portion, having been but slightly' wounded, have been taken to Nashville. ' ' • ' • The United States Sanitary Commission have representatives here, but have no stores, although a supply is daily expected. This, in connection with the fact that every store In the town is closed, and the inhabitants having fled to " parts unknown," renders it impossible to make the condition of these martyrs on the altar of their country as comfortable as could be desired. This state of things however, can last but a very short time. Gen. Itoseorans, whose headquarters are here, kept me in conversa tion with him today about a half hour. He has en dorsed an order on my Commission "to the officers an d surgeons of the Department of the Cumberland," to render me every facility in, the prosecution of the work of the Commission. The stores we have with us were purchased in Nashville, and we have been very busy today in ministering to the physical and spiritual condition of these suffering men. Very many cases of most touch ing interest have come under our notice. In view of these masses of tattered limbs and mangled bodies, caused by this desolating war, we are ready to ex claim, Oh ! Lord, how longl When shall victims cease to be slaughtered to the dreadful demonl In deserved wrath remember mercy. One of our number will go to Nashville tomorrow to procure an additional supply of stores. Itis hoped those sent forward from Louisville have already ar rived there. There are numerous hospitals about Stone river, two of which contain over 1,000 patients. They will be visited before leaving here. • General Negley gave me a most cordial invitation to visit his headquarters, and promised to render every assistance in his power. • Ins division took a very important part in turning the tide of battle in our favor in the late contest. lie is a military man all over, and a son of the Key stone State besides. • I have much more to say, but must now conclude: Should any inquiries be made of you respecting the body of Private Orlando 'Weikel, you may state that he is buried one mile beyond Lavergne from here, or fourteen miles from Nashville, on the pike near a burned bridge. The grave is marked by two stones. Also the body of Frank Eaton, of whose death I advised you by telegraph, lies buried in this town, in the cemetery of the Presbyterian church.. You will excuse the paper upon which this letter is written, as it is all I can get in the house, and the contraband servant cannot go out at night without a cc pass."" Yours fraternally, J. S. C. P. S.—There is not the slightest appearance of the Sabbath here. The whole population is completely demoralized. lltioND'Ar MINI cu.—Having received an addi tional sheet of paper, I would add a few more lines, communicating some facts that may be important. You may not.be aware that, at the meeting held on the evening of our departure, a large number of the friends of the Anderson Cavalry boys made a special request that I should telegraph to them when it was ascertained that their loss was not so great as was at first represented. It was deemed prudent not to send despatches announcing the safety of those for whom their requests had been made, lest it" might be inferred that those of whom nothing had been commu nicated were not safe. • I wish, however, to mention the case of E. E. Griffith, Company who is safe. His friends gave me a letter for him : and handed me $5 to pay ex pellee of telegraphing to them, .but did not give me then address. Without this the despatch would be useless. His letter was sent to camp. I Will see him and the men at the camp when I return to Natih ville. . Dr. Read, who is officially connected with the U. S. Sanitary Commission, and with whom I hive be come well acquainted, has informed me that they have about three ,hundred boxes of stores just ar- Mired iriNashville, one hundred will be here to-day or to-morrow, and our commission here and there can distribute from them. A word in regard to the future of this work, so auspiciously begun. I apprehend most of our men cannot be absent from home beyond two or three weeks from the time they left. As there is eo much to be done here, (I mean in this department,) making Nashville the base of operations, I think it would be exceedingly desirable to have it continued. This is the more important as arrangements can be made with the Sanitary Commission,that when our sup plies are exhausted we 'can raw upon them, and have free access to their stores. _ Please, therefore, secure a corps of ten geicieni, experiencedmen, to come here when the delegations with us shall have been relieved. A few good men, who are not afraid to work, and withal who have experience, are worth scores of an opposite character. They must also be prepared to endure some privations in sleeping and eating, and in other respects. I must now close. The circumstances under whicll I have written this letter are quite unfavorable; you must therefore excuse its appearance. Yours fraternally, DONATIONS.—The following donations to the Homeopathic Hospital, 1118 Cuthbert street, are acknowledged by the corresponding secretary, Mrs. H. N.

THE BROAD-STREET RAILWAY CASE.—PRELIII NAM' INJUNCTION GRANTED. Commonwealth of Pennsylvania vs. The Navy Yard, Broad-street, and Fairmount Railway Com pany et al. In this case, which was argued on Sa turday, on the 'information filed by the Attorney General of the State praying an injunction against the company, Chief Justice Lowrie stated yesterday that in this case he deemed it proper to announce that the Court intended to grant the motion for a preliminary jnjunstion. They would not now define the extent of that injunction, except to state that the company has no rights but those of a street passen ger railway company. The Court would .write an opinion, but they made this announcement in order that neither party should incur additional expense. The Chief Justice, in reply to a question from Mr. Knox one of the counsel for the company, said that the opinion would be read some time this week. THE COMMON COUNCIL INJUNCTION CASE. Kerr vs. Trego et al. The application by the De mocratic organization of Common Council for an in junction against the Union organization, was to have been heard yesterday morning before a full Court at Nisi Prius, but the Chief Justice stated that owing to the inability of Justice Woodward to attend, the case would have to go over until Wednesday. • The following opinions were dblivered, among them an interesting one on limited partnerships, by Justice Thompson, as follows : Thomas Singer vs. Charles Kelly: Error to the District Court. Opinion of the court by Thompson, J. On the 16th of June, 1856, a copartnership was formed for the transaction of a general commission business, in the city of Philadelphia, between Wil liam J. Martin, William McCallaster, and Charles Kelly, under the firm name of Martin EckcCallaster. It was to be a partnership under the act of Assembly of the 21st of March, 1858. Martin & .McCallaster Were to be the general_ partners, and Kelly the spe cial partner. The firm was dlliy organized, and , Kelly paid in• $20,000 in cash, his agreed contribu tion to the firm. The firm commenced business, but in'ahout six months failed, sinking the entire sum contributed .hy the special partner, and had an un liquidated indebtedness of some $78,000, which the assets were totally inadequate to satisfy. Under these circumstances the plaintiffhas brought this action against all the partners as general part ners, seeking to make the special partner liable, on the ground that the business of the firm was changed, and that such change, without first having a new certificate, rendered him liable. The evidence of a change consisted of two distinct purchases by Martin & McCallaster; one on the 26th of June, 1851, of fifty bales of cotton, amounting to $4,200, for which they gave notes, and the. other, four days after, of sixty tierces of rice, at $2,100, also on a credit of four months. The learned judge of the District Court who tried the case was of opinion that there was no proof of knowledge or assent by the special , partner to these purchases, not within the legitimate scope of the . business of the firm. He, therefore, reserved the point whether a special partner could be made liable for a change in the business without a knowledge that it had taken place, and dirceted a verdict for the plaintiff, subject to the entry of judgment for the defendant non obstante veredieto. . Subsequently and after argument 'in bane in the District Court, judg ment was entered for the defendant on the point re-, served. We have before us, , therefore, the case "pure and simple" of an effort to charge a special partner as a general partner, on acebunt of a change in the business of the firm, without any knowledge what 'ever of a change in the business of the firm, either in point of fact or as a presumption arising from his connection with the transaction. Can this be Cone! The section of the act under which this result is claimed is the twelfth section, and reads as follows: ' "Every alteration which shall be - made in the names of the partners, in the nature of the business, or in the capital or shares thereof, or in other mat :ter specified in the original certificate, 'shall be deemed a dissolution of the partnership , and any such partnership, which shall in any manner be carried on after such alteration shall have been made, shall be deemed a general partnership, uTntess renewed as .a special partnership, according to the last .(pre 'ceding) section." The contest was, therefore, really between intellif gent action as the ground of liability, on the one LEGAL INTELLIGENCE- hand, ano a clairo;) ( 1 liability by force merely of the. words of the Istritute,•togardlees of the 'element of knowledge or assent, on the other. Did the Legiala- I ture mean this last position to be the true interpre- taf.;, o a of the clause? I Unless it plainly appdars that liability, without any reference to knowledge or intentional violation of the provision in question was meant, we shoUld not give it a construction leading to such penal con. sequence as is contended for. It would be contrary to natural justice, and this result should not be ae. rived at hyinterpretation,'unless it be inevitable.: It is 'a maxim of justice which declares that no one shall suffer for another's fault : ' , Nemo punitur • pro alien delido." I admit , there are exceptions to ' the rule, however . Things Maio prohibits may incur liability, sometimes, without the knowledge, really, •• of the party actually liable. So, in cases oesurety ship, liability always arises out of the acts or omit"- eibias of the principal ; but; In these easel; the con sequence results from positive municipal regulatiOn on.the one hand, and the nature of the engagement'. on the other. But neither of these relations exists here. I cannot find any warrant, under a fair inter pretation of this clause of the statute, for holding' that the special partner is a guarantor for the' gene ral partners, further than his definite acceding to the contract, nor that it is to be construed as a penal statute. I think that an analysis of the statute itself will show that its consistency can only be preserved by holding the special partner to be in volved only by his own acts of violation ' or by assenting to those of his copartners, when heknows, or is presumed to know, them. We have no decisions on the precise point under consideration in our own State, nor have any been referred to as adjudged .in the other States where a aimilar laid exists. We mint therefore, explore the meaning of this clause by the light of other provisions the statute involving the same responsibility.. Dissolution of the partnership is what, in contem plation of the law,' was the first consequence to flow from any of thenhanges or alterations spoken of in the section.. But the • law also contemplates the carrying on of the, business in an associated and general form of Partnership, without the limitation proviSions, and holding all liable as general partners. It is the carrying ono!' the business after a violation in any of 'the particulars specified which turns the concern into a general partnership. Now, if the general partners, without the knowledge or assent of the special partner, could change the " nature of the busineria,'.t so as to. render the special partner liable, it would be to apply a more' severe; rule than could obtain'if the violation consisted in a change of the firm name, or of the capital or shares in it, which manifestly ionic'. not be done- without the. assent' f all, and yet the 'consequences would be the mune. Thus, there would be no distinction between intentional violations and those neither intended nor known. In many other provisions of the statute, the conse quences of violations are fixed to the extent of general liability of the special partner—but without exception, I think, they all imply the knowledge or assent of the party to be charged of the acts done to which . the consequence is -attached. A false statement in the original certificate will have this effect, and Hills must be made by all. So, after organization, transacting the business of the firm, oracting as agents or, attorney for it, or interfering in its business, and perhaps for withdrawing capi tal, will each render the special partner liable, but they all imply violation with knowledge of the act. The 20th and 21st sections of the act especially exhibit the rule of justice evidently intended by the Legislature. Assignment for certain* purposes, and with certain intent, after insolvency or contemplated insolvency by the firm, or by a partner under the same circumstances, is forbidden ; and the 22d section provides that if any special partner shall violate any of these provisions, or assent to any such violation, he shall be liable as a general partner. The gronnd of liability is here plainly apparent as only to ensue in consequence of a personal violation of the act, or assenting to its violation by copartners. argue, therefore, that if the statute throughout, as I think it does, fixes the consequences of.violations of its provisions to be general liability, and they ne .cessarily imply knowledge and assent, we may fairly' presume that the same cause was supposed to be necessary to produce the same result in the clause in question. If the change of the nature of the business, therefore, by his copartners, was not known by the defendant Reny, and the business was carried on afterwards, without his knowledge that it had been changed, he would not be liable in consequence thereof. , • It is not intended to deny that the requisites of the statute must be strictly, pursued in organizing and conducting limited partnerships; but this should not change the rule of interpretation, which requires in publiceneficial statutes that construction which will promote their objects rather than destroy them. One of the great objects of this system of limited partnerships was to encourage• the employment of capital, without personal activity on the part of its owners, by associating it with industry and enter prise, which might not he possessed of oapital. But should we hold that a change in the business, which might be made by the active partners without the knowledge or assent, either actual or to be presumed from circumstances of the special partner, the capt taliet, and he be liable notwithstanding, it would deter all prudent men from investing or embarking' their capital in any such way; for, by the very terms of the act, he is not allowed to interfere with• the operations of the. concern. Such a construction would put him completely within the poiver and at the mercy of his copartners. But when we hold him only for his own act or assent, we place responsibili ty on its true ground—the choice of the party. • These views are supported by the case of the Madi son County Bank vs. Gould, 5 Hill, 309. That case arose on the New York. statute regulating limited partnership, from which ours was copied, I believe verbatim. It was attempted in that case, as in this, to hold the special partner liable as a general part ner. One ground was, a mistake of a month in the . advertisement, in 'setting forth the commence ment of the firm to be in November instead of Oct°. ber. The court there held that, as there was no evi dence of an intentional violation of the statute in the mispublication, the special partner was not liable by reason of it. Another ground claimed for liability was the investment of a large portion of the capital in the purchase of real estate not within the scope of the business of the firm.. The special partner's liability was made to turn on the question of know ledge and assent to the purchases, although the con veyance was taken in his as well as that of his co-: partner's name. Bronson, J. said : "I cannot think him liable for the wrong done by his copartners, without showing that he participated in the act." In the same Spirit is Bowen vs. Migall, 24 Wendell, 497. We are of opinion, therefore, that there was no error in the ruling of this point in the court below. We see nothing in the other specifications of error requiring special notice. We agree with the court below, that we see no reason for holding that the special partner had anything to do with the care and collection of the debts of the firm after it failed. If he was not involved as a general partner, he had no concern in it. His money was in it, and applicable to the debts, and that was the only extent of his connection with it. J. S. C. There was no offer to • show that Kelly assented to any assignment of assets, so as to render him liable on that score, and the court properly rejected the offer to 'prove that the general partners made some such assignment.

HOMICIDE OASE. . • Gilbert Lewis was put upon trial yesterday, in this court, charged with the murder of Benjamin Scott. It appeared that the defendant occupied a room in the second Amy of a building in the neigh borhood of Seventh and Bedford streets, from which a passage-way led to an opening, from which a lad der descended to the ground, a distance of some nine feet. At the foot of the ladder was a paling fence. On the night of the 12th of November Scott, very muckintoxicated, called on the defendant at his room, 'and while there an altercation occurred be tween them, in the course of'which the latter order ed him to leave his house. In doing so, Scott either fell down the ladder or was pushed down. it by the defendant for he was found against the fence with three of his ribs fractured, and a severe contusion on the head. He was taken to the hospital, and, in two days afterwards died from apoplexy, induced by his injuries. Dennis O'Brien, who represented the Com monwealth. after the evidence on the iiart of the prosecution had been heard, abandoned the case, and the jury rendered a verdict — of not guilty. John O'Byrne Es q., appeared for the defendant, having been assigned by Judge Ludlow as counsel. THE POLICE. ißefore Mr. Alderman &Men) The Fifth-Ward Election Case—Further Delay. Charles W. Brooke et al, charged with issuing a certificate of election to Wm. Meeser without au thority of law, by which Mr. M. claims a seat in the Common Council, came up at half past three o'clock yesterday afternoon. Mr. Geo. W. Biddle was pre-. sent, and stated that he represented one of the de fendants, but as the counsel for the others were not present, he suggested a postponement. Mr. David W. Sellers, for the Commonwealth, de sired to hear one or two witnesses—namelyr, Messrs. Robert Ewing, ex-sheriff, and Semi. P. Hall, who prepared the proclamation. There is such an evident desire to procrastinate the hearing that the case may be inquired into at once by the grand jury, and the return made to court in a style that will be apt to rather astonish some of the legal fraternity. The following evidence was elicited : . Robert Ewing sworn. I was sheriff last October; Mr. Hall prepared the proclamation for the general election; I signed it. Mr. Ewing retired. Mr. Samuel P. Hall was cal led to the stand to prove the proclamation. Mr. Biddle (counsel for one of the defendants) sug gested that as Mr. Brooke was not present the case be postponed. Mr. Brooke entered the, office at this moment. Mr. Biddle desired the evidence of the ex.sheriff to be read to him. Alderman Beitler responded as desired. llir.•Brooke remained silent, warming his fingers at the stove. Mr. Sellers desired to examine Mr. Bali. Mr. Biddle suggested that the case might go over until all the counsel could be present. Mr. Hall is in the immediate neighborhood, and his attendance can be obtained at any. time. Mr. Sellers, while he felt willing to accommodate his professional brethren at all times, modestly con tended that Mr. Hall could be examined now, as his evidence forms the basis of the prosecution. Mr. Hall was sworn. I prepared the proclamation of the last general election (printed copyof the docu ment here shown); .I received a list of the taxable. from the City Commissioner ,• the Fifth ward was excepted ; t h at was left out ; • there was some dispute between the assessors ; I had not the list of taxables before me when I made out the return ,• one of the City Commissioners, I think Mr. Neal, erased the Fifth ward ; I could not wait until the dispute be tween the assessors was concluded, and, therefore,: made out the proclamation:without the list of Fifth ward; because of the erasure spoken of there was no reference made to the election of member of Common Council, Fifth ward ; I treated the erasure as though it had been a blank.. " Question by Mr. Sellers. Before the proclamation came out did you not get a corrected returnl A. 'I don't remember having received it; I • know the dispute was still pending, and the case came up in the criminal court. R. At any time did you receive a corrected reporti Mr. Biddle objected. In answer to a question propounded by Mr. Bid dle, the witness replied; to the best-of my recollec tion I received no corrected or other return before preparing the proof of printed proclamation. rdr. Biddle desired the alderman to make a memo. random of this reply in the proceedings. The further hearing.was now postponed until five o'clock tomorrow afternoon. , ,„ Arrest of Alleged Burglars: Edward ,Duffy, Elias S. Relgel, George Hender son, William Watt, and Richard McCarthy, were arrested yesterday morning by officers of the police divisions of Lic.ut, Witcraft and Lieut. Spear, oa lil PRESS.--PHILADELPIEIA; the suspicion of having forcibly entered the dry goodr store of Thomas S. 'Feist,. at Girard: avenue and Shackamaxon street, at an early hour on Sun day morning. During the investigation some evi dence was adduced that tended to implicate some. One or more of , the prisoners in the robbery of the store of Dir. George Riche, at Front and Otter ;'streets. Two of the prisoners, Duff's, and Reigel, Were identified as being a part of a gang of six per sons who knoekid down funiredibed Louis alechesie of the sum of $26 on Saturday night. The parties , chkving been arraigned, the prOoeidings progressed as follows: . • ' . • ' • Officer Keyser tstified ifint iliciut 3 Weimar on • Sunday morning he saw. a MEM go away from the dry goodestore of Mr. Pais, ,t • followed him down to Frankford road ; •then turned back - and met °Moors Dietz and Bookhamer ; saw, alight over the transom, as though sonte - orie -was striking'a thatch ; saw Duffy - come out of the store and run do the greet ; Officers Dietz and Bookhamer chased him ; he knocked Bookhamer, illiwn,•find Dieti-eientifined the Chaim ; I saw another Man in the Store; I held the door shut and sprung my rattle for assistance; we arrested him, and he told us where we might get thaothers ; we recovered these two drawers at a house we were directed to (drawers here shown and identified by John P. Taylor as havinabeen stolen from the store of George Riche; prisoner told us "that Henderson was in the store; I took McCarthy into custody, simply from description given of a man said t. be one of the gang, but found out that he was not the right man. • These two drawers were stolen from a store in the Sixteenth ward; we found them in a room occupied by Watts jone of the prisoners), ,we arrested Henderson in Front below Laurel streets. The officer here produced an iron pry, a broken staple, several keys and Government musket screw-driver, a new pocket-book—nothing in it—no store mark upon it. Officer Irvin. testified that he heard the rattle epringing and hastened to Second and Shackamaxoff streets to assist Officer Keyser ;'went into the store, struck a light, , and discovere Reigel behind the d6or ; took htm into custody. ' Officer Dietz testified as to the chase he gave Duffy, the one who had knocked Officer Bookhamer down. . _ Officer John' McKee testified to seeing Duffy in a tavern between four and five o'clock ; arrested him; took from him this billy and pocket-book (billy and pocket-book shown.) Thos. S. Paint sworn.—Am proprietor of the store at the oorner of Shaolcamaxon and Second streets ; none of my goods are missing; a little over a dollar in pennies were taken from the , drawer-; also three dollars in uneurrent notes ; two or three counterfeit • notes were also taken; the store is separated from the dwelling part of• the house; two families live in the house;'there are no communicating doors be tween the store and these apartments. : • Here a question may arise whether the crime, t if any was committed, is burglary or not . Robert M. Paint, son of the proprietor, testified that on Friday evening last, just as he was about, closing the store, two persons came' there and made inquiries about handkerehiefs, but went away with out having purchased any; as they were going out one of. them pulled at a piece of delaine hanging 'at the door, but did not get it away ; these two men went up the street, - gave a whistle, and were joined by another man, 'and' the three persons then went away ; the two who came to the store are Duffy and Beige! ; .am certain of -this. - John P. Taylor sworn.—l am in the employ of Mr. George Riche, at Front and Otter streets ; the place was entered some time after 9 o'clock last night ;.a pane of glass was cut out and the fasten trigs removed ,• these two drawers are mine; pennies to the amount of $2.60 , and some small notes,: a 20- cent and a $1 counterfeit note were taken. This witness examined some of the things found in pos session of the parties arid identified the, government musket screw driver - and also a brass key,:aa his • .. property. The alderman milted The prisoners whether they had anything to say. Reig,el replied that hewent up town with a couple of fellows; found the store of Mr. Paist open ; went in and took a seat on a box ; only knew one of , the fellows; they call him Scotty ; never saw this man (pointing to Dully) before to-day. "Have you anythhig , to say, Duffy'?" inquired, the alderman. " Yee, sir, replied the prisoner. "At the time this affair happened I was in the lager-beer saloon on Third street, below Chestnut; two police officers were in there at - the time • I'm sure they would know me again if they could time; me ; I went up town and stopped at : Front and Otter streets, where the officer arrested me." Mr. Thomas Paid, on being asked, said it struck him veq-forcibly that he had seen Reigel and Duffy about.the store on Friday evening. Mr. Taylor said the dwelling part of the house at Front and Otter streets is occupied by•the family of Mr. Vandyke. Officer. Dietz recalled. I am sure that Duffy is the man I chased ; he is the one that came out of the store. Jacob Snell testified that he lives on Girard aie nue,•but does not know hoWthe drawers stolen from the store at Front and Otter streets got into , his house; have seen Henderson and Watts there to gether; have not seen Henderson there since last Tfiursday. Louis. Idacheski testified that he lives on Twenty 'first street, above Pine; on last Saturday evening went into a public house, with a friend, on Howard street, below Girard avenue; on coining our/was knocked down and robbed of twenty-five dollars ; there .were six men in•the gang; I recognize:Duffy and Beige! as two of them; I have no doubtabout their identity. A knife found in the possession of Henderson was full of putty as though used in removing.the pane of glass from the store where the drawers were stolen. There being no evidence against McCarthy, he was discharged. The other four parties were committed to answer the charge of committing two burglaries, highway robbery; as indicated in the evidence above reported. (Before Mr. Alderman Gibson.] Caught at Last. Wm. Mullin and .Tames McArnish, a couple of bad boys, were arraigned before the alderman yes terday, and were held to bail to be of future good behavior, and to keep the peace. For some time past, a number of boys% have amused themselves by. standing on a bridge that overlooks the German town cars, and throwing stones at the conductors or passengers. Several persons have been injured by the boys. Complaints having been made to the lieu tenant of the police he stationed a couple of officers in a. convenient place, and on Saturday the two above-named prisoners were captured in the act of pelting the cars. The alderman reprimanded them severely, after which he ordered them to enter bail as above stated. Three Warnings. A number of instances have been reported at the Central station of persons calling at the houses of some of the best residents of the city for clothes to wash, stating that because :the , washwoman being sick, she could not come herself and had sent the ap plicants. ,It was subsequently.ascertained that the parties had not been sent for the clothes. Warning number two may be stated as follows : Quite a number of poorlyiclad, worsen have been going around from house to: hou . se - Ivithi doleful stories about their husbands being in thefarmy—re ceiving .no pay—landlords about, to turn the dis consolate wives and children into the street because of the non-payment of the rent. Some of these. women act in so plausible a manner, that in many.. instances they have received a considerable amount' 'of money by these means. It was stated that one female had actually, by retailing out these pitiable stories, accumulated nearly fifty dollars in a single day. Warning number three may be disposed of as follows : From certain indications, it is evident that petty counterfeiters are about to flood the oity of Philadelphia with counterfeit city'of Wilmington notes, of various denominations, from fifty cents down to five. The community is hereby warned, in advance, of the expected issue of such spurious notes. UNITED STATES HOTEL, HARRIS BURG, PA—REFITTED AND RENOVATED—L.W.

READ THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY. - . About twelve months ago I had a severe attack of Diabetes, attended with other difficulties too numerous to mention. My desire 'for drink was constant, and al though I drank gallons per day, my thirst was never allayed; I was only able to sleep at short intervals, ve.ich seemed like a trance. The mucous surface of my mouth and throat had become so parched and feverish. nat 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 Homoeopathic school, and exhausted their catalogue of remedies, but found only temporary relieL In this condition, when every ray of hope seemed para lyzed, I heard of the discovery of Profeseor Bolles in the use of Elechicity, and the wonders he was performing in curingdiseaaa, 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 min disappeared; my appetite has returned, sleep undisturbed, and, in feet, I feel like one made anew. I would further state that I have seen other remark able cures performed by Prot Bolles, and would advise the diseased to call at 1228 Walnut street, and be restored to health.. I shall be glad to give any one information calling on Ins. THOMAS HARROP_ , Rose Mill, West Philadelphia- Philadelphia, May Ist, )860. Read the following from a preacher of the Methodist Episcopal Church, Ito. 1833 Helmuth street, Philadel phia : In attempting a definition of my disease, I can only give some of the many symptoms which, taken altogee ther, were the most horrid ; and even medical men did not know my disease from pathological symptoms. How ever. Professor, C. H. Bolles, by whom I was cured, lo cated my disese in the pelvic viscera, in five minutes after I entered his office, an offered to warrant a perfect cure in eight applications. And I frankly admit that in eight applications of Electricity. administered by Pro fessor Boum, 1220 Walnut street, Philadelphia, 1 am mrfectly cured ; and to me this is most astonishing, for I Lad 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 core, although no shocks were given. All was pleasant, and accomplished as if by magic. I will give moat 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 B()LLES to ithe enlisted of all classes. There seems to be no guesswork, no confusion, no matter of doubt in his treatment. Be proceeds on fixed principles, and according to fixed laws, which seem to me infallible and harmonious. He 'war rants, by special contract, the moat obstinate, chronic and acute cases, and charges nothing, if he fails. I ad vise all of the diseased to try EDW ARD his treatmen P. EVANS, Preacher in M. E:Church, . 16i HELMUTH Street Philadelphia. ANOTHER CURE OF PARALYSIS Ot THE LOWER LIMBS (Paraplegia) AND APOPLEXY COMBINED. Bead the following: Pitri.anaLPHre, March 31, 1662. PROFESSOR Boum, L 220 Walnut street : The remarka ble cure which I have derived from your method of ap. plying Electricity compels me to thus acknowledge the great obligations I am under to yon for snatching me, as it were, from immediate death. About two years ago, while a resident of Cincinnati, Ohio, I was visited wan. an attack of paralysis' of the lower extremities. which rendered me almost entirely unable to stand upon my limbs. I employed some of the moat 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 of apoplexy. Two weeks elapsed from that time before I became the least conscious of anything that had transpired, nor could I concentrate my mind or converse upon any subject without becoming very vi sionary and excited, until I placed myself under your valuable treatment. After my arrival in Philadelphia my attention was called to your treatment by a pamphlet handed me by my father, which contained the names of some gentlemen whom I had been formerly acquainted with and whose statements I could rely upon. I Imme diately made up my mind to place myself under your treatment. I have now been the recipient of four treat ments, and I now feel perfectly satisfied that I am re stored to a sound condition, and thefore feel it my duty to gratefully acknowledge the benefits which I have re ceived through your treatment. Very respectfully yours, Etc. wiLLIA H. BRAIN, Publisher of the Nationai Merchant, once 126 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 hazard, but it is the severity of truth, and designed for the good of humanity. See advertise ment in another column. Conzultation Free.
