Wby N W SE...SW by S TILE CITIZENS' VOLUNTEER HOSPITAL.— The Citizens' Volunteer Hospital is an institution in which every citizen takes a deep and abiding Yin tercet. This interest is felt both from the nature of the establishment and the great amount of good Which it has done and is doing. Many months ago, in September last, when the hospitals near the seat of war were overcrowded, about one thousand suf fering soldiers were sent on to Philadelphia with out ant:Relent warning having been given of their coming. Various churches, engine housed, and pri vate dwellings in the vicinity of Broad and Prime streets were at once thrown open for their recep tion. At this juncture the idea of a temporary hospital was first broached. For commodiousness and convenience of arrangement the building is unequalled. The cash paid for the building amount ed to $5,630.32, and the donations for materials, in cluding everything in its construction, to $1,911.42, the whole making $7,660.74. There are 260 beds in the house, with bed-sacks for about 400 others. As many as 720 persons, however. have been accommodated within Its walls during night. In one week 2,859 invalids have been trans ferred from this to other hospitals, by menus of ambulances. Since its erection over 8,000 have been received within its walls, but only those patients the most seriously ill are retained there. It was originally intended that the citizens should conduct the hospital without any aid from the Government. This being found to be impracticable, an agreement was made by which the Government placed a sur geon in charge over the Institution, and .furnished the beds, bedding, medicine, and rations. The managers supply the heatand light, keep the build ing in good repair, and do all that may be required for the comfort of" the soldiers. The very efficient committee of ladies who have Volunteered their services, and who have performed those services with zeal andjudgment, assiduity and success, raises the tone of the establishment to a very high standard. The amount of money received in donations from Sept. 12, 1862, to Jan. so, 1863,was $10,170.06. The greatest amount received any one week was for the week ending Dec. 26,1862, and made $954.78. The smallest amount received for any one week was for the week ending Dec. 12, 1862, making $26. The weekly receipts averaged $484.28. This includes a period of twentpone weeks. The greatest amount of expenditure for any one week was for the week ending Nov. 21, 18V.., making $988.92. The smallest amount expended for any one week was for the week ending January 30, 1863, making $204.32. The average weekly expenditure from the week, ending September 18th, 1862, to the week end ing Jan. 30, 1863, made $463.70. Tire whole amount of expenditures for this period was $9,737.65. These Short statistics will not be altogether without some suggestion of interest to those who understand the working of such institutions. The Oitizene' Volun teer Hospital is of incalculable worth. All its offi cers and attache are intelligent and hardworking, and, having the interests of the establishment at heart, always work faithfully to promote those in terests. THE QUA:KERS AND THE WAIL—The Quakers have petitioned the Legislature to relieve them from the payment of fines and penalties for declining to take up arms. The following is a copy of a petition forwarded from this city a few days since : To the Governor,Senate and Howe of Representatives of the Slate o Pennsylvania: The memorial of the Representative Committee or Meeting for sufferings of the Religious Society of Friends of Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware and adjacent parts of Maryland, respectfully show eth, that the religious society which we represent has been in existence more than two hundred years. In all that time its members have been conspicu ous for their fidelity to every government under which they have lived, for their love of order, and strict observance of all laws that did not directly conflict with their religious scruples. They have always supported their own poor, at the same time paying their equitable share of taxes for the suppo,rt of the indigent public; generally educated thely own children, and maintained a strict moral discipline amongst themselves, without aid from the public authorities. During this time, notwithstanding there have been numerous cases of individual unfaithfulness, as a body they have maintained a uniform testimony against war believing that allegiance to their Divine Master and Holy Pattern forbade their uniting with any in warlike measures, either offensive or defen sive. For thil teitimony, from time to time, they have suffered diatraint of their property and imprison ment; but the penaltkes of the law, however severe and grievous to be borne, have never caused them to abandon their testimony or even weaken their devotion to it; so that these laws have only gained to those Who executed them a small pecuniary re turn in exchange for the large amount of distress and suffering they have inflicted. We believe that our neighboring States of New Yolk and Maryland have enacted laws entirely screening ".those Who conscientiously scruple to bear arms" from that service, or paying any equiva lent therefor. In view of these facts, we ask the Legislature to consider whether true wisdom will not justify them in relieving from fines and penalties all those who, for conscience sake, and obedience to what they sacredly believe the Divine will requires of them, decline to take up arms or pay an equivalent in lieu thereof. Signed by direction and on behalf of the meeting. WM. DORSEY, Clerk. THE CULTIVATION OF FLAX.—As has al ready been stated in these columns, the high price of cotton and the consequent enormous increase in The cost of all cotton fabrics, has had the effect of causing numerous experiMentsto be made with such materials as would be likely to answer as a substi tute. We learn that in all the adjoining counties a 911.W.111 Jae devoted to the raising of fl ax. Many Lannert,' in — nrr - - - t-rier... of Bucks county have been in the habit of raising .Jro several years past, and they are now taking it to the city 'markets, where it is readily sold at high prices. There is a good deal of seed in that county, and no doubt it will be eagerly sought for during the ensuing spring.. At present rates, a crop of hex is as good an invest ment as our farmers can make. The United States Senate, lathe appropriations for the Agricultural Department, provided $20,000 for experiments in preparing hemp and flax as sub stitutes for cotton. Invention has already reached a point where It seems to be on the very verge of complete success in the manufacture or flax on cot ton machinery. Our most skillful manufacturers and machinists are very sanguine in their belief that the result will be accomplished, and those who have given the most attention to the subject are the men who are the most sanguine. But the requisite in vestigation and experiments need to be conducted on a scale which requires considerable outlay . . If the problem shall be solved; and the vast quantities of materials that are now absolutely thrown away shall be used upon the spindles that are now spin ning cotton that costs a dollar a pound, what a bless ing it will 'be to the West, to the East, and to the whole world ! THE STORE-ORDER SYSTF.M.—Governor Curtin, in Ms last annual message, took strong grounds against the payment of workmen and laborers in orders on storekeepers. In order to do away with this practice, a bin ham been introduced into the State Senate providing that, from and after the passage of the act, it shall not be lawful for any iron -master, foundryman, collier, factoryman, or other employer of workmen and laborers, or their agents or clerks, to pay the wages, or any part thereof, of the workmen or laborers by them em ployed in either printed, written, or verbal orders upon any storekeeper or shopkeeper, or other dealer or dealers in merchandise or other articles, whether 'connected in business with the said iron -master, foundryman, collier, factoryman, or other employer of woikmen,.or not. That any mployer of workmen or laborers, any iron.master, foundryman, collier, or factoryman, paying to the said workmen or laborers so by him employed, or authorizing and directing his or their agent or agents, clerk or clerks, to pay any .part of the wages of his said workman or laborer in any or der or orders upon any such storekeeper, shop keeper, or other dealer in merchandise or other arti ales, shall forfeltthe amount of said order or orders so given anti paid; the sum shall not be recoverable at htiv—the amount thereof shall not be defalcated against the wages of said workman or laborer, and he shall he entitled to recover the full amount of his wages, as though no such order or orders had been given or paid, and no settlement or settlements made with such employer shall bear such secovery ; and any such employer of workmen, iron -master, foundryman, collier, or factoryman, ofibnding against the provisions of the first section of this act, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor, and upon convic tion thereof, shall be plinialied by fine and imprison ment, or either, at the discretion of the court trying the same: THE lon PnosrEcT.—Our ice men com plain that they have not near half a supply of this useful article for thh coming season. The ice crop in this vicinity, it is now thought by many, will be a failure, the season being so far advanced that there is but little hope of a hard freeze. Others maintain that the extreme mild weather of the past few weeks cannot be relied on as indicating a scarcity of ice. In 1848, there was no ice to cut till the middle of March, and then a full crop of the desired thickness. In 1866, the first and second weeks of March pro duced the entire crop of that season, and we find that the record shows cutting ice as late as April 7, 1811 and 1842. Notwithstanding these views, we are in clined to think that those who gather ice where it is now to be found, in acdessible localities, will find a good market the coming season. Probably a larger quantity than usual will be gathered at the North, which will partially make up the deficiency.

SALTING TUE RAILWAY TRACKS.—Some of the railroad crossings were in almost filthy condi. tion during yesterday. The pickled slush flooded the streets, and in some places it was impossible to cross without getting in knee-deep. The railroad companies seem to care for no one's comfort but their own. They salt the snow and render the walking miserable, when, with a little labor, they might dig drains and thus carry off' all the filthy slush. CORONER'S CASES.—The body of a man named Clayton Shultz was found, yesterday morn ing; upon a lot at Frankford road and Richmond lane. The deceased was frozen to death during the night. Yesterday, the coroner was summoned to hold Inquests in the following cases of sudden death: At 400 Penn street, below Pine, a woman found dead in bed; Springmill court, Twenty-fourth, above Callow hill, Eliza Walker, aged '72 years; Martinsville, in the First ward, a colored child, named Sarah Mur ray, found dead In bed. FAT CATTLE.— Yesterday there were slaughtered, at the Western Market House, the beeves known as the " George B. McClellan and " Garibaloi," two of the fattest cattle ever brought to this market. They were raised from blooded Durham stock, imported by the Kentucky associa tion organized for The purpose. Their total weight i 56,00 0 pounds. They were purchased by A. it. rallll Mit rotrri-o:km--the meeting a the sufferers by the terrible failure of the United States Saving Dind, called for this evening, has been postponed, in consequence of the required absence of the lead ing 'spirit of .the movement. A meeting of the Le gislative investigating committee, which will be held in Harrisburg this afternoon, requires his attention at the seat of Goyernment. THE REMOVAL FROM THE OLD POST OFTWz.—The old post once was clo■ed at seven o'clock last evening. Last night and this morning have been employed in the removal of the goods and chattels to the new post office on Chestnut street, where all the postal business will be for the future transacted. • BMIGLAII FIBLBD.—Some time during Tuesday night an attempt was made to enter Hbakleis market house, on Brown street, above Marshall. The burglar bored a hole through the back door, but before he had time to latest an entrance he was frightened or. Tar. LADY OP TU HOUSE.--Poetry is the opera of language; prose is the drama. There is much poetry and much prose comprised in the small sentence, "The lady of the house." When the proprietor of the last new invention sticks a yellow envetope under the door, he has, it is likely, both poetic and prosaic ideas in regard to the lady whose favor lie would propitiate. If the door-knob and the bell-handle are in an ecstatic state of polish; if the disposition of the mat answers. hie most sanguine notions of propriety; if the scraper looks as though it had been systematically used; if the steps are white and redolent with marble sand; then, through an intuitive process of logic, will he arrive at the conclusion that the lady of the house is a very tidy sort of creature. At that conclusion he will have to stand. Arriving at a conclusion, however, is like arriving at a railway station; you always have to wait n little The baggage of ideas (very often a .‘ good- for-no bing baggage") has to he got out from the train of thought. The passenger contemplation is startled by logic's locomotive whistle. The lady of the house is a species of the genus woman, just as the master is a species of the genus homo ; there is generally a family belonging to this species, She may be a sugar•srveet bride of sixteen—she may be a salt, sour vixen of sixty—the one is like floating Wand, and the other is like vinegar and salad. She may be a demure Quaker prude, with a smile like the gloss of a tear, and a look round the eyelike the remains of a cry. She may he an upstart, black browed body dressed in shabby silk and ringed and braceleted with meretricious jewels. She may be an imbecile invalid, fond of eating late brealtfasts,ond crackingjokes with her doctors. She may be a stunning denature, very tired of try ing on new flesh-colored tights, and very fond of picking up paper-laced bouquets before a tumultuous house. She may be an ogress with red-rimmed eye balls, a snivelling nose, and smirking mouth. In short, a stranger never knows, when he rings the door-bell, the quality of the presiding deity whom be summons. The beggar boy with check pooket handkerchief, and the little girl with the large bas ket, and the man with brooms, and the old woman with matches, and all the innumerable indescriba ble nonentities, with their innumerable nondescript wares, are absolutely ignorant (unless they have learned wisdom by experience) of the reception they are likely to meet with from the lady of the house. PROFESSOR McCoy's LECTURE.—The great oration, The London Times on the Rebel lion,” delivered by Professor McCoy, of Washing ton, D. C., over fifty times, will be repeated in this city this evening, at Concert Ball. Admission is free to all. After the lecture we understand that the friends of Professor McCoy will tender him a serenade at this La Pierre House.. Douglass' Bri gadeßand will be in attendance. FINE CATTLE.—Seven head of fat cattle, raised in Lancaster county, were recently purchased, in this city, for the sum of $lO5 per head. The ave• rage weight of the cattle was about 1,101) pounds. THE POLICE. [Beton, Mr. Alderman Baitler.] Fully Committed. The colored man arrested on Tuesday evening by Reserve Officers Rawlings and Benkert, the par ticulars of which were published in The Press yester day, was an signed before Mr. Alderman BeWel., at the Central Station, yesterday afternoon. Quite a number of persons, who had lost pleCes of clothe, cassimeres, or cassinet, came to the Central Station during yesterday morning, in respOnse to the notice in The Press, but none of them could identify the piece of goods. Finally, a clerk of Mr. Archambault, who keeps a store at Eleventh and Market streets,Came to the station and identified the goods as ha ving been stolen from the front of the .store early in the evening. The prisoner was arraigned. • When first arrested he gave the name of George Stout. Ile admitted his right name to be Henry Scott. He is a short, thickset, intelligent looking yellow man. • F. Devlin sworn.—This piece of goods was stolen from our store door early last evening. The prisoner was asked where he got the goods. He replied, "In Market street." "Why did you deny, last evening, that you had the goods in your posseasiont" inquired the alder man. The prisoner looked blank—he was particularly dumb. In default of $1,600 bail, he was committed to prison to await trial, Officer Rawlings having him in custody. The Other Lifter. James Morgan, who was arrested on Tuesday eve ning, as stated In yesterday's Prcss, was also ar raigned for a hearing. The. recovered silk goods were displayed by Mr. Detective G. H. Smith, who obtained them at the express office, as stated. The little boy, Hugh Lynn, identified the prisoner RS the other man who visited the store, as reported yes terday. Alderman to the prisoner. "Have you any ques tions to ask 1" Prisoner. "No sir ; none at ail." "You are required," said the alderman, "to give bail in thesum of $1,600 to answer at court." 'The defendant was led into the private room, where he was entertained by the detective in charge, prepare.; tory to a free ride to the "stone jug" in the First ward. [Adore Mr. Alderman While.] A Well.itressed Shoplifter. Yesterday afternoon a woman, very respectably dressed, and modest in her deportment, was ar raigned before Mr. Alderman White, on the charge of stealing a pair of shoes from the store of Mr. John B. Mooney, South street, above Third. She gave the name of Margaret Burk, and said she resided on Jacoby street. The evidence elicited the following facts: About three o'clock, yesterday afternoon, she M purchased a pair of shoes at the store of Mr. oo ney. - While a daughter of the proprietor was wrap ping them up, the customer helped herself to an ad- . ditional pair. She was not observed to do so by Miss Mooney; a little boy, however, happened to be looking into the store, and he saw the female in question put them under her shawl. He so informed Miss Mooney, after the customer had gone froin'the store. Miss M. followed after her until she reached the store of Mr. Keyser, at the corner of Second and Spruce streets. While waiting for her reappearance .on the street, the attention of °Meer Miller was called. He took her into custody. On making an exa ination he not only found the pair of stolen from . ey s etorThtrriteigeteNrig trifling articles at this place. From er as no one would suppose she would be guil t y it nec of theft. Mr. Keyser got his goods, but did nat.thi I nary to appear, at least at present, ageing tne ac cused. The alderman asked the accused if she had any questions to ask, to which she replied no. She further addea that it was her intention to pay for the shoes. The worthy magistrate required the defendant to enter hail in the sum of $l,OOO to an swer. This woman had frequently stopped at the store of Mr. Mooney to price shoes, and occasion ally she would purchase a pair. LEGAL INTELLIGEN OE.

WONDERFUL DISCOVERY AND WONDERFUL RESULTS ACCOMPLISHED BY PROF. C. H. BOLLES, 1220 WALNUT Street.—The difference between fact and Alfons, of permanently curing tile gtsifering of their disease, and advertising to cure, and showing no better evidence than offering re ference of some persons in far-off localities, can well be appreciated by anxious seekers after health, upon atten tively reading the following( certificates of' cases from some of the most reliable gentlemen of Philadelphia, who were permanently cured by Prof. C. H. BOLLES, of 1220 WALNUT Street. Facts are stubborn things. and as evidence is required for the establishment of all facts admitting of the least doubt, and as the astonishing cures perfored by Prof. BOLLES are such as no other man has ever performed in this or any other city, it seems important in the present case to offer some proof by way of certillcatea from some of the most reliable gentlemen of this city, and more because there are some in this city who have the auda city to claim to treat according to Prof. BOLLES' dis covery, and these same persons are really ignorant of the Positive or Negative Poles of any Electrical Machines, and therefore. Prot BOLLES has cautioned the- sick against trusting their health in such reckless hands. Read the following certificates of cures of most oloetl sate clfeeasec fly Prof. Bolles, 1220 Walnut street Philadelphia. The first cure via jar t ......1.......-- ,-- ceurrafia.:and -... "Vointir'Vt years ago I had a severe attack of dysgePtie symptoms, which increased on me during the while time, and I supposed, and also my physicians that treated me, that my real disease was dyspepsia, and at - ra Wila treated for that disease. My seet. war* at first great hunger. and bad and exhausted feeling in the stomach, only when I ate often. Sometimes, however, I experienced loss of appetite, very disagreeable nausea in the stomach, pain in the epigastrum, heartburn, great fullness about the stomach, and pain through the pyloric region; collections fmetimee of great weight in the sto mach, of acidity in the stomach, fetid taste in the month. When - the sense of hunger came on as above described, I had a sense of flattering about the chest, and a sinking faint-feeling at the pit of the stomach which was, in my first Attacks, re- • lieved only by taking food, and many times m my walks through the streets of Philadelphia, when these sinking spells came on, I woe obliged to cal at some restaurant and take food, but this only relieved tne for the present time, and thus I suffered foryears under the best medi cal treatment in the city. However, my physician at last pronounced my disease cancer in the stomach. • I continued to be treated for what I was informed to be a cancer up to the time that Professor Bolles came tn this city and advertised his important discovery in the application of Galvanism and other modifications of Electricity, for the cure of (as he announced) acute and chronic diseases, and more especially cancers, tumors, white swelling, &c. I immediately called on Prof. Bolles, at I=ilVainsit street, for advice In my case. I will bare state that I considered my caso a hopeless one, but. notwitlutteeding thin, my holve. were. at once re vived, when . Prof. B. frankly told me that .he could cure me in a few das e, and I am frank in saying that in twelve or fourteen treatments I was perfectly cured. This care to me looks mysterious, and will ever appear a wonder of wonders, but to Prof. B. all seemed cer tain, as he remarked at the commencement that he knew to a day how long it would take to products a care. I am certain of a permanent cure from the fact that about two years have elapsed since my cure, add I bare had no symptoms of return: I think Professor Bolles has made every important discovery in the application of Electricity for the certain cure of acute and chronic diseases, know of a great number of persons whom he has cured of the most obstinate diseases, both acute and chronic. I have watched his success for more than two years, and takepleasune in recommending his scientific discovery to suffering humanity. I shall take pleasure in being referred to by the diseased. H. 0. SHURTLEFF, 3722 M &BRET Street. The following wonderful cure of Epilepsy was per formed nurre.than eight menthe afro and rematn,e well to We date. Read the following attentively : • The following is a statement of 'netts in reference to my condition and astonishing cure of Epilepsy: For five years previous to my knowledge of Professor C. H, Bolles' discovery of the therapeutic administra tion of Galvanism, Magnetism, and other modificatioos of Electricity for the cure of all smite and chronic diseases, I had been severely afflicted with Epileptic Fits of the most obdurate character, and had abandoned all hopes of ever being cured, as I had for years tried the treatment and received the counsel of the most emi nent Medical Men of the States, wish the view of obtain ing relief if any could be found among the Old Schools; but all my efforts wore unavailing. and, therefore, all bones were abandoned, as I then knew of no greater skill for the cure of obstinate cases than in the Old Schools. About six months ago my mind was turned to investigate the new diseovery of Prof. C. H. Bol les, I 2 Walnut street, and, after noticing several certificates of cures which were published, and some from persons with whom I. was acquainted, and knew them to be reliable men, I was induced to call on the Professor, and obtain his opinion of my case. After he had examined sue about ten minutes, he frankly informed tile that he could cure use, and offered to give me a written warrantee of a complete cure, and in case of a failure to charge me nothing. This at first seemed an impossibility; but the frankness and earnestness of the Professor convinced me of his gebll/1 tide accuracy In the diagnosis of my case. Be disclosed all my sufferings and symptoms for five years past as well as I know them myself. I will here state, lot the good of humanity, and ?especially those suffering as I was,. that l amr fectly cured. I further would state that more than fur months have elapsed since my cure, and I have had no symptoms, and, therefore, feel confident that I am cured. I shall take pleasure in being referred te.at any time, by any one suffering as I was, and any information of my condition previous to say cure will be freely_given to any one at 15 42 North THIRTEENTH Street,Thiladelphist. W. FREED. - N. B.—Professor C. H. BOLLES will publish, from time to time certificates of the cure of chronic caseshvhich had resisted the treatment of the most eminent medical men for years. Please take notice that Professor B. does not ad vertise any certificates of cures, except those cared In this city. See advertisement in another column. Consultation Free. PROF. C. M.
