MEETING OF COUNCILS. Party Feeling Still Rampant in Both .Ilranchcs — The Government Called to Ac • t for "Arbitrary Arrests"—Mr. Boi leau Made n Martyr—Election of Trustees of Gas Works and Railroad DireCtors The Democratic Nominees Elected. Yesterday• afternoon both branches of the City Council held a regular stated meeting. SELECT BRANCH. • _ _ At the open in g Of the Council yesterday afternoon there Was a scene of persona/ dispute,ln which Mr. Brightly took . a leading part. He said that the minutes of the last meeting were not correct. The following item appears in the printed journal : "Mr. Catherwood moved to suspend the rule which prohibits the reading of hills more than once on the same day, and that. Council proceed to the third reading of the bill, which was agreed to." Mr. BRIGHTLY remarked - that there was no sus pension of the rules, that he desired the record to state the truth and did not wish the clerks to cover up the incapacity of the temporary incumbent of the chair, (Mr. Davis.) If the temporary incumbent of the chair was so entirely ignorant of the rule as to put a bill on third reading with a.slispension of the rules, then the journal should show it. The speaker considered that the Chamber owed him a vote of thanks for the selection of Mr. Lynd as Pre sident, instead of the gentleman from the Fifteenth ward. In conclusion, Mr. BRIGHTLY moved that the objectionable item be stricken from the minutes. Mr. OATH/IRV/00D said he was surprised at the remarks of the gentleman froth the Fifteenth ward. The motion certainly was made at the last meeting, and it was agreed to as the minutes state. The gentleman from the Fifteenth ward (Mr. Brightly) presumes to dictate to the clerks what record they shall make, and, in so doing, he is impertinent. Mr. BRIGHTLY replied that if the gentleman froth the Twenty-fifth ward (Mr. Catherwood) avers that he made the motion to suspend the rules, and heard it put by the Chair, then I must take it, in spite of my own senses. Mr. WRTTURRILL arose to speak. Mr. LYN]) (president) announced there was no bu siness before the Chamber. Mr.WETit rutt r.r.,on leave beinggranted, made some remarks. He said that he considered that Mr. Brightly owed something more to the Chamber than a simple withdrawal of the motion. w A charge has been made against Mr. Davis, and the withdrawal of the motion is an admission that it 'MO unfound ed. The gentleman from the Fifteenth ward had been insulted by the gentleman from the Twenty second ward, and an apology should be made. The gentleman from the Fifteenth ward had been a mem ber of Council for a number of years, and is as able to fill the chair as the present incumbent, and cer tainly, in his (Mr. WetherilPs) opinion, much more able than the gentleman from the Twenty-second ward'. Ever since Mr. Davis has been in the Cham ber he has ever been.found faithtul and true, and would receive the endorsement of every member of the chamber excepting, perhaps, the gentleman from the Twenty-second ward. Mr. BRIGHTLY, in reply to Mr. Wetherill said: "if the gentleman from the Ninth ward had been hpresent at the last meeting, then he knows what I ave said is true." . WririmaiLL, with some degree of warmth, laconically replied: " I deny it" Mr. BRIGHTLY reiterated what he had said. Mr. o.mm:worn), on.the other aide of the circle, exclaimed to Mr. Brightly, "I deny it." Great sensation in the chamber. Mr. Bniorimr rejoined as follows: " The . cierks had heard no such motion." The exciting remarks so personal in their charac ter now mine to a close, and the President sub mitted the annual report of Trustees of the Phila delphia Gas Works, which was ordered to be printed. The report of the the Managers of the. Wills! Hospital was also presented and ordered to be printed. At this stage of the proceedings communication was received from S. 0. Dawson, the secretary of commission for the relief of the Families of Volunteers, from which we learn, that the sum of $26,307.45 had been expended for said purpose within the past two weeks ; that the whole amount expended since the beginning is $1,0'76,193.47. Passenger Railways. • • Mr. Gm'NOD° submitted a resolution in opposi tion to.the proposition to lay a passenger railway track on Ninth and Twelfth streets, and urging upon the members of the State Senate and House of Re presentatives to oppose the passage of any bill that ]lna y be offered or may now be pending before their bodies. The resolution was agreed to. - Mr. CATIIERWOOD made a motion that Select Council meet Common Council at five o'clock this afternoon, for the purpose of electing three directors of the Sunbury and Erie Railroad and two directors . of the North Pennsylvania-Railroad Company. A motion was made to postpone the consideration of the resolution. Agreed to—eyes 13, nays 12.:• • " It soundSlike treason." Dr. Naistantv„ of the Second ward, submitted the following : • • • Whereas, On the 28th inst., a lawless act was per petrated in the city . of Philadelphia, by certain indi viduals, who kidnapped a citizen of :Pennsylvania, the publisher of a publicjournal, took possession of his office and its appointments, and prevented the further publication of his paper; and, Whereas, The circumstances surrounding this transaction are such as to arouse the indignation of every law•abiding citizen, who feels that his liberty, his life, and his property, are guarantied by the consti tution and the law, and that any deviation of either, without due process of law, may be ranked as among: the moat infamous of outrages : therefore,) Resolved, That the Mayor be, and he is hereby au thorized and directed, to offer a reward of $l,OOO for the arrest and conviction of each of the participators in this unconstitutional proceeding. Resolved, That every officer of the law be requested and required to assist, as far as in him lies, in the accomplishment of the purposes of these resolutions. The resolutions having been interlined, the clerk could not read it smoothly, whereupon Dr. Ulatnn asked that the resolutions be again read, as he desired to understand them exactly .It seems to him they are an insult to the United states Government—it sounds like treason. A motion was made to refer them to the Commit tee on Law, yet to be appointed. Mr. hii r.nau moved to Jay them on the table. Mr. Awirarnoxo moved to refer them to a special committee. Dlr. Lytio, (President). The motion to lay on the table is in order, on which the yeas and nays are ordered. The motion was agreed to by the following rote— nays 13, nays 12: YEAS—Messrs. Brightly, Davis, Ginnodo, Greble, :Manuel, Miller, Paulin Riche, Spering, Uhler, WetherilL Zane, and Lynil, President-12. NAYS—Messrs. Armstrong, Baird, Baron, Cather wood, Harris, Kamer king, Marcus, McElroy, 'itt()lson, Itleketts : .and Weaver-12. Nal tonal Tax on Gas. Mr. WET H EuiLt offered a bill making an appro priation of the sum of $8,345 to pay the national lax upon the gas consumed in the street lamps in the city during the months of September, October, November, and December. On this prolific stilljer:. a long debate ensued, after which the bill was referred to a special committee of live. Ronrand Directors. After considerable discussion, select Council con curred in a retolution passed by the other branch, to meet in convention to elect certain railroad di rectors. On the return of the members to the chamber— Trusters of Gas Works. Council proceeded. to the election of two trus tees of the Philadelphia Gas Works. The Democrats nominated Daniel M. Fox and Charles Welsh. The. Republicans nominated E. H. Trotter and John llinnui. Mr. BittuitTLY, Independent, nominated S. MeMe namy and Theodore S. Williams. The first ballot resulted as follows : r. Fox 121 Mr. Manul Air. Welsh 12 Mr. McMenamy. Mr. Trotter 121 Mr. Williams Mr. BR:OHTLY voted for Mr. Williams and Manul. This vote elected .111 e last named gentleman, who Was the Republican caucus nominee. The second ballot for the remaining trustee was 'taken, which resulted in the election a .aa. Trotter, 31e having received 13 votes. The odd vote was east for him by Mr. Catherwooti, in order to prevent the election of Mr, Williams. The result of this vote caused quite a sensation among the outsiders. T here seemed to be a deep interest in this election. The votes having been east,, and the anxiety of lis tening spectators satisfied, the place appropriated for the people speedily became less crowded. Coun cil now proceeded to the consideration of - the bill making an appropriation to the families of the Volunteers. A long discussion ensued, in which it was urged that the bill ought to pass at once, as the commis- Mon have been paring out borrowed money for the, past week or two. The bill was finally referred to a committee of five, consisting of Messrs. Wetherill, Spering, Harris, Weaver. Longue Select Council concurred in thebill from the other branch, providing for the appointment of a commit tee to urge upon Congress the recognition of League Island as a site for a naval station.

Mr. PAINTI'.It Offered a preamble and resolutions respecting the Arrest of A. D. Boileau, of the Eve ning Journal. The preamble sets forth that the said arrest, being in violation of the rights of private citizens, and en outrage upon the Constitution of The United States and the State, deserves the con demnation of evurl right-minded person. The reso 3utions read thus : Be ft resolver!, That such proceedings on the part of the authorities of the United States, placing the military, in violation of the Constitution, superior to the ci it authorities, are an infringement of the rights of the owners and publishers of said jour -7111.1, and of the cit.zens of Pennsylvania. Resolved, That, in view of these facts, our repre sentatives in the Legislature of Pennsylvania are respectfully rcqu( elect to take immediate action, and adopt such measures as in their judgment will secure theindefeasit.le rights of our people, and pre vent the kitlnappieg or uur citizens and the illegal interference with and destruction of their property, and also that they will use all honorable means to procure tile passage of resolutions calling upon the I.:xecutive of this State to.demand from the Federal (Invernntent a due icspect for our sovereign rights, 4 , and to take such measures as will secure the imme diate release of Albert D. Boiletiu from militarycon. tinement and handing him over, if cause should be shown, to the civil authorities of his own State and vicinity, to answer to any charge that may be legally preferred against him. • Peso/red, That the Common Council, representing the citizens of Philadelphia, emphatically condemn the arbitrary an eat of Albert D. Boileau, and the suppression of his paper, as unlawful acts, dangerous to public liberty. ECKSTEIN moved to lay the resolutions on the table. The yeas and nays were called, resulting as fol lowa : YEAS. Adams, A. W. (R.) )3arrett. (R.) ]iumm, (R.) Cavin (R.) Comly, (R.) Creswell, (R.) Eckstein, (R.) Gray, (R.) Harper, (R,) Hodgdon, (R.) Leigh, (R.) Mercer, (B.) • Moore, (R.) ' Peale, (R.) Rafsnyder, (R.) _Ruhl, (R.) Simpson, (R.) Stokeley, (R.) Sulger, (R.) Taylor, (IL) Trego, (13.)-21. So the motion was lost. Mr. Lciwt moved to postpone the resolutions. Not agreed to. lie then moved to postpone for two weeks. Mr. Leigh said that these resolutions may be very proper if offered at the proper time. We as has been do. not know whether any man been arreeted by order of the Government. If Mr. Boileau litdi*.been guilty of any misdemeanor, the Governmenf..has the right to punish him. The speaker was personally of the opinion that every citizen should have a trial, if arrested. That trial may be given the subject of these resolutions at the proper time. In any event, it is not the business of this Council to arraign the Goren:intent for what ever, in its wisdom, it may deem tit to do. Mr. tinusswkaa, inquired whether the pre sident would not exercise his power, in keeping or der outside the railing, as he could see that the crowd there assembled were disposed to make a dis turbance. These Councils were never dedicated to ruffianism. Mr. PAINTER desired to say that he offered those resolutions with perfect sincerity, and did not wish to be lectured, or his motives impugned. A great public wrong had been committed in this city, and it becomes the City Councils to resent the outrage. Mr. Mr:EriEntaid it would make very little diffe rence ton citizen whether he is here when, without the privilege of uttering his' own sentiments or whether he is in Fort Lafayette. The only diffe rence is in favor of the . fort, because the prisoner is supported by the Government, whereas, if he was out of the fort, he would have to support himself. [Laughter.] So fares the charge of ruffianism is concerned, what has been the course of the gentle man from the Tenth (Mr. Cresswell)= but one of ruffianism since this Chamber tried to organize itself 1 - - Mr. CnksswEr,r. said that he had been a mem ber of Common Council nearly four years, and this was the first time in his life that he had been charged with ruffianism. He would leave it to his fellow-members to decide whether he had ever im pugned the motives of a single gentleman, either morally or politically. He had too much respect for himself, too much for the dignity of Common Coun-' cil. He, therefore, spurned the contemptible Bing of the gentleman, whom we all know has no light on this floor, anyhow. ••,- • Mr. ECKSTEIN said that he had no doubt but that the resolution would be adopted, for the political majority are determined to pass it., if for no other purpose than to show their opposition to the power making the arrest.. This arrest is no matter of ours,. and it does not become us to Introduce matters of this kind. Let us submit to the law, as law-abiding citizens. Mr. Qui - N said that it was a peculiar logic—pecu liar, probably,t o the preceding gentleman only—tha t because the Government presumes to do a wrong, that, therefore, the City Councils ought not to ex press its condemnation of that wrong. The speaker said that-no man was more favorable to the perpetui ty of the Union than himself. He loved the Govern ment, because it was the best Government of the earth. No one -ever heard- him express one word of sympathy for its enemies. He... Would wish that lie would become palsied whenever:he would utter one word in favor of the rebellion, as against the Union. Yet he. would condemn the Administration for its imbecility; he would condemn it because it did not deal more deadly blows to the rebels and give more hope for the re-establishment of the Union. In his support of the Government he would go a little fur ther than the Democratic doctrine, that inasmuch as the President devoted three-fifths of his message to the negro, and devoted not one line in expressing a sympathy for a million of white soldiers in the field, and thousands in the'grave; that insomuch as the Administration loves the negroes so much, that it should be empowered to enlist a negro army, place wooly-head Fremont at their head, and let them go South and fight for Union and Liberty. 'Din Qum would willingly give to the Administra tion all the power possible to suppress the rebellion, but, withal, he would not justify it in dragging pri vate citizens, living away off from the field of con filet, into dungeons, thus depriving them of the in alienable rights of citizenship and manhood. Mr. LEIGH could not see how a man could support The Governmentand yet work against the Adminis tration. He who did not support the Administration in its endeavors to put down the rebellion could not be in faVor of the Government. The motion to postpone for two weeks was not agreed to. . Mr. CaEsswiaz moved to refer the resolution to a special committee of five. Mr. BARGEr. gave his reasons why he should vote against the reference. He denied the right of the Federal soldiers to enter the house of any citizen of Philadelphia and drag him from his home at mid night without any allegations of guilt. He did not agree with some of the members, that the simple duty of Councils is to vote dollars and cents for the city of Philadelphia. We are the custodians of the interests of the citizens, and, as custodians, we should inquire into any alleged infringements upon the rights and privileges of the people. He did not wish to be understood as favoring those in armed opposition to the Government. The Democratic party is for the. Union but it is also for justice and right. It is against hie imbecile Administration whenever it prostitutes its power towards violating the rights and privileges of the people. We have furnished men and means and we demand that neither shall be squandereduselessly. The motion to refer to a committee was not agreed to. The resolutions were adopted—yeas 25, nays 18. Frnud in the Gas Department. Mr. PAINTER offered a resolution authorizing the appointment of a committee to inquire into an al leged fraud of $-12,000 on the part of a clerk in the office of the trustees of the gas works. Adopted. The resolutions from Select Council relative to the death of Major Hatvkaworth were adopted. Also, those in reference to the late Major Rosen garten. Election in Joint Convention. It was now five o'clock, and the members of Select Council were announced as ready to go into joint convention for election of certain officers. Mr. Lyn, according to the rules, took the - chair. Nominations being in order for Directors of the Sunbury and Erie Railroad, Mr. BARGER. nominated Alex. Convery, 11. W. Catherwood, and Thos. E. Gaskill. Mr. Stmot:n nominated J. Alexander Simpson, John Derbyshire, and John M. Riley. Mcsers. Convery, Catherwood, and Gaskill were declared elected. Mr. Bnions•r.v voted with the Republicans. The Democratic nominees were elected by one ma.. jority. Mr. BARGER. then nominated, for Directors of the North Pennsylvania Railroad, Samuel Magattoe and John Mclntyre. Mr. A. W. ADAMS nominated Jacob Riegel and Wm. H. Barnes. Messrs. Magargee and Mclntyre were elected by one majority. The Co*ested Seats: Mr. HARPER offered a protest, signed by' all, the Republican members, against the course of the Chamber in refusing to receive the certificate of J. R. McCurdy, Esq. The protest says Mr. McCurdy WAS " lawfully elected." The CHAIR. received the protest, but said that it could not be entered on the journal, as it stated to be true what is considered untrue. There is a sit ting member from the ward from which Mr. Mc- Curdy claims to have been elected. We are not to sit in judgment now on a question of a contested sent. Mr. QUIN moved to refer the protest back to Mr. Harper for correction. Agreed to. Mr. Sl3lrsoN offered a similar protest against the right of Messrs. Leech, Meeser, and Greenwood to hold seats in this Chamber. The CHAR: stated that he could not receive the protest. It was referred back. Mr. SIMPSON was about offering another paper, when Mr. NVOLIVERT moved to adjourn. The yeas and nays were called, the Democrats only voting for the adjournment. The motion was agreed to. ANNL'AT, MEETING OF THE SOCIETY OV THE "UNION TEMPORARY HOME FOE CHILDREN.- This meeting was held at the Home, northeast "'cop: ner of Poplar and Sixteenth streets, yesterday afternoon, at four o'clock. Rev. Mir. W. H. Furness was In the chair, and Mr. D. C. McCammon secre tary. in the annual report presented, the managers acknowledge the liberality extended to this valuable institution. This charity would seem to claim espe cial consideration, because of its providing a com fortable home and means of instruction for the children of the poor, and because it thus aids the pa rents without superseding them in the discharge of their parental duties. The Home requires from the parents the payment of a small weekly sum, which, while it does but little toward defraying its ex penses, yet establishes some claim upon the parents. At press nt there are in the home thirty children of soldiers now in the war. The support of the institu tion has thus become a patriotic duty. The paving of the yard and play-ground during the past year has been attended to. The bread has been uniformly excellent and of the very best quality and texture. A bath room is desirable. The Home is. situated in a most delightful and healthy locality, the views from the windows being fine and extensive; the interior is conducted with extreme care and neatness, with thorough order and discipline; the dilibrent departments are in satis factory contrition; the children sing exceedingly well, for they have been well taught, and look hap py, intelligent, and contented; the kitchen and dining rooms are attractive in the completeness of their appearance;.the bed rooms are clean and tidy. The present good state of the establishment is due general y to the efficient services of the matron, Mrs. Clara Mallery; assistant matron, Miss. Eliza Mallery, and the teacher, Mist; Clara Mallery. Sixty is the number of children to which the means of the Home limit the managers in admitting; only a portion remain any great length of time. Since January Ist, 1862, fifty-eight children have been ad mitted, and fifty-two taken away; seven have been provided with homes, and one admitted into Girard College. The amount received for the children's . board is $1;31. Last year the semi-annual payment of The Home's taxes and mortgage was liquidated through the exertions of the Board of Counsel. For the like purpose, from the .readings of Mrs. Kemble $6OO was realized. Among the inmates,thece was no serious Illness, and for the past two years only one death. • The treasurer's report shows the annual receipts of the Home to have been, during the past year, $3,317.61, the expenditures $3,283.42, leaving a balance of $94.19. The rules to be observed by the parents of the children received into the • Union Temporary Horne require that, upon the admission of a child, a fortnight's board is to be paid in ad vance; the board is to be paid weekly, in advance; no child will be allowed to remain in the Home when the parents or guardians have neglected to pay the board for two weeks ; the children shall wear Such clothing as the managers shall provide; the parents or guardians must provide the shoes; the patents and friends of the children shall be allowed to visit them every Thursday afternoon; no confectionery allowed to be brought to the Home; the children are not to be taken away on holidays, or at any time, except in cases of urgent necessity; upon the admission of a child, the parent or guardian bringing a child will be required to sign a certificate, one copy being given to said parent or guardian, and another to he retained and kept by the society, and endorsed with the age of the child, place of residence, and dale of admission; when, for the space of three months, no payment has been received for the hoard of any child, and nothing has been heard from the parents or guardians of said child, the managers will consider themseivei at liberty to.bind the child out or provide for it another residence. The officers were re-elected, and are as follows : President, Ttichat d Vaux ; vice president, Slimes H. Orne ; treasurer, Edward W. Clark ; secretary, David C. McCam mon.

Friendless Children has lost one of its founders; who t in health, was ever active in the discharge of his duties as a trustee; inillness was ever. solicitous for -the con tinued success of its benevolent labors, and in death will be gratefully remembered for his zealous in terest in its organization and throughout the infancy of its existence.

No one connected with the establishment had heard, officially or otherwise, the place of con= finement to which Mr. Boileau, the proprietor, was sent. Mr. Barger stated in. Common Council, din.: ing the debate in that body on what the Democratic members styled the " illegality” of the arrest, that he had reason to believe that Mr. Boileau was sent to Fort McHenry. The arrest has been the sullject of much comment since it was announced, and - the Democratic politicians are making political capital out of it, boasting that it is a subject for rejoicing. rather than for regret. Judge Ludlow's charge to the Grand Jury on the subject, as well as the pro ceedings in Councils, were the almost exclusive topics of conversation on the. street yesterday after noon.. TEE .

Court of Oyer and Terminer and Quarter Sessions—Judge Ludlow. JUDGE LUDLOW CALLS THE ATTENTION OF TILE GRAND JURY TO THE ARREST OF THE PROPRIE- TOR OF THE EVENING JOURNAL. Before the regular business of the court was pro ceeded with, yesterday morning, a decided MEM tion was caused by Judge Ludlow directing an of ficer to request the appearance of the Grand Jury. When they had come in and answered to their names, the Judge addressed them as follows : Gentleman of the Grand Jury: It has come to my . knowledge that within the last twenty-four hours a citizen of thin Commonwealth, and of this county, has been suddenly arrested at his residence in this city, and has been forcibly car ried, against his will, beyond the limits of this State and the jurisdiction of this court. Such evfnts have heretofore taken place, but as we have been anxious to support the United States Goverr ment in every way compatible with a proper discharge of our duty, we were not; inclined to be lieve that those in authority would attempt to exer cise a•power under all circumstances questionable and delicate, when temporary excitement had given way to reason, and a patriotic and I believe an ho nest desire to do a great public duty had resolved itself into a settled purpose to discharge that duty according to law, and with at least a decent respect for the laws of this Commonwealth and for the con stituted authorities of the State. Tne time has arrived when we can no longer hold our peace, when the obligations imposed upon us by our oaths of office compel us at every hazard to direct the Grand Jury to inquire into and determine by whose order and by what persons this arrest has been made; and if, after an impartial examination, it khan appear that any citizen has been forcibly ab ducted from the county, to inform the Grand Jury that it is their duty to present the facts in the case to the court where bills of indictment may be framed, and the accused persons, if they have committed a crime be tiled, and it guilty be punished for what in that event may become a criminal act. By the Constitution of the United States, Art, 'yr. of the Amendments,."ln all Criminal prosecutions, the accused Shall ejoy the right to a speedy and public trial by an impartial jury of the State atul dis trict wherein the clime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascer tained bylaw; and to be informed of the nature and cause' of the accusation, to be confronted with the witnesses against him, to have compulsory process to obtain witnesses in his favor, and to have the aa sistance of counsel for his defence." The Constitution of this Commonwealth contains the came provision, Sec. IX. of the Declaration of Rights, with this addition: "nor ran he be deprived of his lire ) liberty, or property, unless by the judg ment of his peers,. Or the laW of the land. These inestimable rights are thus guarantied to every citizen ty the Constitution, not only of Penn sylvania but also by The Constitution of the, United Slates. You will see, gentlemen, that the Federal and State Governments provided for the trial of those charged with having committed offences against either but the framers of these Constitutions in tended that the citizen should not be arrested with out having an opportunity to defend hithself. it may be supposed by some that the offence of treason cannot be punished under the Constitution of the United States except by the excreta. of military power. Such, however, is not the case, and that man is not only ignorant of the law, but must be inten tionally so, for the Constitution of the United States • expressly declares : Article 111, section 3, That "'beacon against the United States shall consist only in levying war against them or in adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort ;no per son shall be convicted of treason unless on the testi mony of two witnesses to the same overt act, or on confession in open court." And many acts of Con gress, now in force, declare before what tribunal, and' in what manner such cases shall be tried, The Legislature of Pennsylvania has also passed a law which declares it to be a high misdemeanor for tiny citizen to aid or assist " any .enemy in open war against this State or the United States" in the manner mentioned In the act; the offence,lf com mitted, may moreover be punished "by solitary im prisonment in the penitentiary, at hard labor, for a term not exceeding ten years. and be fined in a Burn not exceeding five thousand dollars, or both; at the discretion of the court." Act of 18th April, 181;1;P. L., page 408. You will thus observe that, under the Constitu tion and laws of the United States and of this'State, a man who is in point of law a traitor, or who aids in any niatelial way the enemy, may be , pu6ished ; and that with great severity, and he ought thus to sutler. Laws, then, exist which protect the Govern al L'i 7 11.IDAY, - 4ANUARY 30. 1863. 189 merit of the State, and of the nation aatnst thef forts of those who Attempt to destroy either. These laws, are amply sufficient to. protect our nation' and State, unless it may be within the limits, and in the immediate vicinity of an army upon the field, and advancing,. or about to advance, against a hostile force, and in an enemy's country. Then add in that extreme case necessity takes the place of settled, well-defined law, and the will of the commander be comes the rule of action. As laws then do exist, as the tribunals of the United States Government and the State are open, as magistrates abound at any corner of the' streets and are known to be loyal men—as peace reigns in this county and no impending danger destroys the authbtity of:law as duly administereil by the State courts and lays its power in the dust, by what right or pretended right can the persons making this ar restjustify it t Certainly not upon the ground of ne cessity, for no necessity exists, and certainly not upon 'a pretended Executive power, for it will be, it must be admitted that that power can only exist 'when the law is silent, and we have distinctly shown that by ; the Constitution of the United States,"and the law of this State, the Government is already se eured, at least in this court, against the designs of those who may attempt by any method to destroy it. But, aside from all this, the Constitution of :the United States declares in Article X. or the: amend ments that "the powers not delegated to the. United States by the Constitution nor prohibited - by it to the States, are resatiest to the Slates rcspcclively, or to the people. The Supreme Court of this State halve decided, 5 H. 119, that this Constitution must receive' a strict construction ; and, viewing this pection in this light, I ask, did the people of. this CattnOnwealth, when they entered into the Union; ever agree to devolve 'upon either the President' of the Unitedd-Statcs„ Congress, or the Judiciary, or three combined, -the power to suspend .the privilege of the writ of habeas corpus In a State or district when the "putt, lic safely did lint roriire.i(. 7, True, it may be the duty of some department of the Government to 'ludge of the necessity , and to suspend the privilege n a given caw, but public sentiment demands that, • in any event, the spirit of the Constitution shall be complied-with; and when the power is claimed by a single individual, the people have at least 'the rightto know who made the arrest, by what au thority it was made, or what charge was, or now is, weferred against the accused. It in -the case soon .to be examined by you, you discover that the arrest was ordered by authority of the laws of the United States, and commonly called-the • •‘!military" as distinguished from the "martial law," you will stale that fact, because it may possibly be that Congress has enacted such laws as they. may by vir tue of the Constitution legally enact, and which, as they affect the government ofthe'army of the United States, may be constitutional anal legal when ap plied to thote - who are amenable •to that particular code of laws. • Gxx'rte.sisx : I have alone taken the responsi bility of addressing you to-day. It has not been done without serious reflection. Prom the corn mencement of the rebellion, I have endeavored, in every possible legal method, to support the consti tuted:authorities. Time and again, questions of great - delicacy, and which seemed to threaten a col lision between the United States authorities and this court, have been disposed of in such a way as not to embarrass the General Government, while the rights of the citizen have been protected. We have even failed 'to. notice the fact officially that' arbitrary arrests have been made in thirr_county, because, as we have before intiinatedrwe had hoped that they would cease. ' That hope hits been 4e stroyed. A legal and moral necessity urges us to this step, not to countenance any sot committed by any man against the authority of the General Government, but to .sustain . a right as clear as the noonday sun, as vital as liffs giving breath, without the existence of which the Government itself is, a stupendous de ception, and which, if firmly maintained now and here, will go far to unite a people of immense fe sources, and which power can yet be wielded as a unit, when and as soon as the consiitutional rights of each citizen shall be respected and enforced. I have now discharged a great public duty, with no desire to do otherwise than to support the United States Government, and I sincerely believe that the result will be to strengthen, and not to weaken that Union which ought to be_perpetuated to the latest generation. I request you at once to suspend all other business before you at present, and instruct the District At torney of this county to send for Geri. Montgomery and the Provost Marshal, together with% all other persons who have any knowledge of this transac tion, and, after you shall have heard them your duty will be simply to present the facts to the Court. The grand Jury then retired, and the busineis of the Court commenced. Convicted of Maintaining a Nuisance. The jury in the case.of frasker and °lark, charged with maintaining a nuisance in their factory at Eighth and Prime streets, rendered a verdict of guilty. They were out but &short time before bring ing in their verdict. • Distriet'Coiart--Judge Sharswood4 ACTION FOR GOODS SOLD AND DELIVERED. 'Evan Morris, trading . as E. Morris & Co., vs. Catharine O'Byrne. An Wien on a book account, for goods sold and delivered. The defence set up was that the defendant had drawn a draft on a party in Richmond, Virginia, previous to the breaking out of the rebellion, which was accepted by him and taken by the plaintiffs in actual payment of his bill; that subsequently ,when the troubles broke out,' th e pla In tiE was unable to communicate-with the acceptor of the draft, and it was not paid, but no notice of non payment was ever given to defendant. Judge Sherri wood held that the court was bound to take judicial notice of the condition of the country and of the fin possibility of communicating with the acceptors, and he could not, Therefore, hold the plaintiff to the strict rule as to notice of non-payment; and, further, as the defendant was a party to the draft, the taking of it as payment did not release her from liability. The jury were instructed to find for the plaintiff; and accordingly, returned a verdict for him for $109.39. Geo. Sergeant, Esq., for plaintiff; Lewis C. Cassidy, Esq., for defendant. A SAD BUT SINGULAR INCIDENT—DETII. OF A JUROR. McKean vs. Effackiston—an action of ejectment. One of the most singular incidents occurred in the progress of this case. iiy agreement of counsel it Was tried before eleven jurors instead of twelve, and it was given to them under the charge of the court on. Wednesday afternoon, with permission to seal `their verdict, and bring. it in yesterday morning. After they had agreed upon and signed their verdict. they . separated, but one of their number, John liagan,llater in. the day, Was-run over; at the Tren ton Railroad depot, and instantly killed. • When the remaining ten jurors appeare'd in court yesterday morning, and this sad fact became known ' t the cairn-. eel in the case were sent for by Judge Sharswood, and notified of it, and, with their consent, the ver. diet was rendered by The ten jurors.

It is alleged that when the well was repaired by the plaintiff; the repairs were done in such an unskilful and careless manner, that the filth was continually 'escaping through into the cellar of ;the hose house, ';rendering the house almost uninhabitable to the „members of the company. Complaint was made to - theßoard of Wealth, and the nuisance abated; but :for damages then already sustained, this action was instituted. At the outset .of the plaintiff's case, one of the members of the' company, who was engaged in the construction, of the building, was called to prove the facts set' forth in our narrative ' but the de fence objected to his competency, on the ground of interest in the result, but Judge.Sharewood over ruled the objection; saYing that the Hpie Company was a charity, .and, as in the case of other charities, its members were not incompetent as Witnesses.

(Mora Mr. Alderman Battler.) Alleged Arson..: • Daniel Donati the . proprietor , of a shoe store on . Second street, near Callqwhill„ was Arraigned yester i day afternoon, at the,Clisd Station, on the charge 8 - s of arson, in settlue fi re to .111 time, on Wednesday • night, between ten and • eleVen o'clock. This is a somewhat singular ease, in one or two aspects. The defendant is a person rather beyond the middle-age 'of life, and has kept the store about three months. He was represented by Mr. Wm. M. Dull. The fol lowing , evidence was elicited : • Peter Getzler, .who resides next door to the store of the defend ant, was attracted by some smoke, between ten and eleven o'clock on Wednesday night ; ,he made a long search about his owu premise; and found no fire ; the wall of hie room seemed to grow unusually warm; on going to • the flat on the .top of his house he discovered the fire burning in the store next door; the alarm was given, and the flame; before they-had- obtained much headway, were extinguished. On making an examination of the condition of the store, the witness found several boxes, containing oakshavings -and also a small bottle, containing camphene or tinning fluid. This was on a shelf , and had apiece otborir it,. with a piece of twine saturated-with thi combusti ble material leading to the.floor. D. B. Slifer testified that he west ;into 'the .store, and helped to extinguish the fire • did not observe anything peculiar about the fire ; there was a lot of waste paper, and other rubbish under the counter ; there was but little tire in the stove; the draft of it was closed, and the door open; there was scarcely enough fire in the stove to emit a spark that would set ftre to anything &few feet off; the fire could not have originated from the stove ; the burning mate rial was several feet from it. Sergeant George Dietz testified that he and Offi cer Kee were standing at the corner of - Sebeind' and Callowhill streets; sawlthe defendant anqanother gentleman come out of the store; as 'they were pass ing by heard the defendant say "'what the - head ;or gets the heels must attend to;". he ;turned . ' back, went into' the store- but came out an. a few ' minutes and went away . This witness gave,a description of the condition of .the store shortly after,the'llre, but detailed no new facts. • 4, • • Officer Kee and Officer Turner weroexspined.— The last named gave a rninutudescriptiow of the manner in which the bottle of fflimphene had zbaen placed on the edge of the shelf. • .. • • Officer Sheets testified to the extent the fire. - htid reached:h Officer Albright's evidence is important: Jie tes tified that, while he had charge of the storb, about seven o'clock yesterday morning, -Mr. Donareathe there, and went in and looked around ;-the ' of camphine, twine, &c., were still on .the shelf when he went in ; 11ir.

The defendant was sent to the Central Station. Firelllart hal Blackburne, upon arriving inStitu ted a most' searching investigation. Under-his di rection a couple of colored men Were employed to examine the sink. There was so strong &smell •of en topherie as to, deodorize the contents of the cess pool. One of the men went down and found the bottle and the twine. On reaching the Central Sta tion the fire marshal had an interview with tile de fendant. The latter explained that the reason he went back to the store on Wednesday night was for the Purpose of opening the stove door, and thatwhen he left, the place was perfectly safe. He admitted having a bottle of camphene sometimes about the store, whieh he used in cleansing some of.the , work. be made up. The fire marshal asked hint if he had such an article about the gitore on Wednes day night. He replied, no:; he denied alb know ledge of it. The fire marshal then told him. of the discovery that had been made, and the defendant still made the most positive denial. He had no other statement to make. The books and accounts of the defendant were examined, from which it seems the defendant went into business about three months since ; had a stock then worth about, five hundred dollars ; it is now much reduced. The owner of the stock was a Mr. Davis ; the defendant was acting in the capacity 'of,tin - . agent for him, though the business was condueted , ln the .name of defendant.

Row completely this compound will do it has been proven by experiment on many of the worst cases to be found in the following complaints SCROFULA AND SCROFULOUS COMPLAINTS, ERUPTIONS AND ERUPTIVE DISEASES, 'ULCERS, PIMPLES, BLOTCHES, TUMORS, SALT RHEUM, SCALD HEAD, SYPHILIS AND SY. •PHILITIC AYPECTIONS,_ MERCURIAL DISEASE, DROPSY.

This compound will be found a great promoter of health when taken in the spring .to . expel the foul hu mors which fester in the blood at that season of the year. By the timely expulsion of them many rankling disor ders are nipped in the bud. Multitudes •cati,-by the aid of this remedy, spare themselves from the endurance of foul eruptions and ulcerous sores, through, which the system will strive to rid itself of corruptions. if not as sisted to do this through the notated. channels of the body by an alterative medicine.. Cleanse out the vitia- ted 'blood whenever you, dud its impurities bursting through the skin in pimples, eruptions, or sores ; cleanse it when you find it is obstructed , and sluggish in the veins; cleanse it whenever it is foal, and your feelings Will tell you -when. 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 IL Aud 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. .

The object of the following certificates is to show that - cures at 1220 WALNUT Street are permanent- and re liable. The first cure was performed nearly three years ago, the second was performed nearly one year ago, the third about one year, and hundreds mdre of like 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, sesich seemed like a trance. The mucous surface of my mouth and throat had become so parched and feverish, oat 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 d was scarcely able to move about. I bad availed myself of the science and skill of distinguished medical men, both of the Allo pathic and Homceopathic school, and exhausted their catalogue of remedies, but found only temporary relief. In this condition, when every ray of hope seemed para lyzed, I heard of the discovery of Professor Bolles in the use o f Electricity, and the wonders he was performing in curing disease, and placed-myself under his treatment; and, to the astonishment of myself and friends, in two operations my Diabetes was controlled, and other diffi culties soon disappeared ; my appetite has returned, sleep undisturbed, and, in fact, I feel like one made anew. I would further state that I have seers other remark able cures performed by Prof. Bolles, and would advise the diseased to call at 1220 Wal ant street, and be restored to health. I shall be glad to give any one information calling on me. THOMAS HARROP Rose Mill, West Philadelphia. Philadelphia, May Ist, 1860. Read the following from a, preacher of the Methodist Episcopal Church, No- 1033 Helmuth street, Philadel phia: In attempting a definition of my disease, I can only give some of the many symptoms which, taken altoges 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 was cured, lo cated my disease in the pelvic viscera, in five minutes after I entered hie 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 Boma% 1220 Walnut street, Philadelphia, 1 am perfectly cured ; and to me this is most astonishing, for I had exhausted the catalogue of old-school remedies, and grevi worse all the time_ I had long believed that in Electricity resided a potent agent for the cure of disease, if a right application could be made ; and now I, can comprehend, from its powerful effects on me, for a speedy cure, although no shocks were given. .All Was pleasant,-and accomplished as if by - Magic. "4' . "` •• I will give most . y symptoms, for the benefit of suffering humanitYX QS I'had dyspepsia, bad marasmns, or wasting of the 'tissues of the whole body ; at times s difficulty of breathing, some palpitation of the lissirt. Much bronchitis, trembling of the limbs after exercise, aversion to business and company ; at times gloomy, ina bility to collect my thoughts vigorously on any subject. a loss of memory, pain in various parts of the body : suf fered-much from lumbago, deranged secretions of the kidneys and other glands of the system, constant drag ging pains in the lumbar - region, and severe nervous diz ziness. .. I believe it is my duty, as a lover of humanity., to re commend this discovery of Professor BOLLES to Ithe aftlicted'of all - classes. There seems to be no guesswork, no confusion no matter of doubt in his treatment. He Proceeds on axed principles, and according to fixed laws, which seem to me infallible and harmonious. He-war rants, by special• contract, the most obstinate chronic and acute cases, and charges nothing, if he fails. I ad vise all of the diseased to try his treatment. EDWARD T. EVANS, Preacher in M. E. Church 1633 HELMUTH Street Philadelphia. ANOTHER CURE OF PARALYSIS oP THE LOWER LIMBS (Paraplegia) AND APOPLEXY COMBINED. Read the following: PAILADELPHai, March 31,1862. PR:0148801i BOLLES, 1= Wai not street : The remarka, ble cure which I have derived from your method of ap plying Electricity compels me to. thus_ acknowledge the great obligations I am under to you for snatching me, as it were, from Immediate death. About two years ago, while a resident of Cincinnati, Ohio, I was visited witn an attack of paralysis' of the lower extremities, which rendered me almost 'entirely unable to stand upon my limbs. I employed some of the most celebrated physi cians to be found in that section, but received no appa rent benefit, and after a lapse of about eighteen months was taken with a spasm, which one of my physicians pronounced 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 upon . rely 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 lam re- - stored to a sound condition, and • thefore feel it nirduty to gratefully acknowledge the benefits which I have re ceived through your treatment. Very respectfully yours, &c. WILLIAk EL MUM, Publisher of the Nationca Merchant, office 126 South SECOND Street, Philadelphia. 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. Consultation .ave.
