GRAND IMPERIAL BALL—The pleasures of
the Carnival were never more brilliant than the pre
sent year. The amount of money spent in, dress is
frightful, and while the poor are getting rich, the
rich are getting poor. One millinery establishment,
that of Worth & Bobergh, of which Monsieur Worth
is the ertist.tiesigner of the toilets of his fair ens.
tourers, made bills on the single costume ball of the
Empress on Monday last to the extent of $.100,e00
And yet there were not quite four hundred ladies at
the ball, and Worth & Bobergh, although they are
the fashionable house the present season, did not
furnish all the costumes at the hall. At this ball,
which was private, and to which invitations were
made directly by the Empress, the following Anett- •
cans were invited, which was a verylarge list in view
of the limited number of persons at the ball: Mrs. Da
yton, in robe of moire antique and powdered hair; Miss
Dayton, as Red Riding Hood; Mrs. Ridgway. of
Philadelphia, in Marchioness; Mole. PUte. of New
Orleans, powdered heir; Miss Minnie King, of Geor-
Pia, Undine; Mrs. Penniman, of New York; Miss
enniman, Ophelin; Mrs. Moulton, (Miss Gree
nough, of Cambridge, Mass.) in Salamander; the
- Viscountess de Gabrlac, (lilies Phalen, of New
cork,) Hungarian costume; Mrs. Eustis, (M
' iss Cor
coran, of Washington ); Stiles Duette, of Louisiana;
IVirs. Butterfield, of New York; Mrs. Dr. Thomas
W. Evans, of Paris; Miss Willing, of Phibillel
phin. the Countess de liloltke, (Miss Hutton, of
New ' York,) in Marchioness, covered with dia
monds; ' and the Countess de Ganay, (Miss Ridg
way, of Philadelphia.) The American ladies, es
those of your readers will see who are acquaint
ed with them, were chosen by her Majesty,
not only on account of their high position in French
society, but also for their general personal beauty
and well.known taste in dress. It was an occasion
for the display of all the wealth in diamonds and
other precious stones of which each was possessed;
for, while it is bad taste to make an inordinate dis
play of diamonds on ordinary occasions, a costume
ball admits nny extravagance in this line the wearer
chooses to make, The Empress represented on this
occasion the wife of a Doge of Venice of the six
teenth century, end wore all the erownjewels. She
was literally citirassed in diamonds. Thefupe wee
black velvet - , over a robe of scarlet satin, bearing
casestelles of diamonds. ' The Imperial Prince, dres
sed in black velvet knee-breeehes, and Venetian man
tle, was present, and danced twice—once with the
Princess Anna 'Murat, and once with Mlle. de Clue
teaubourg. His dance with his cousin the Princess
Anna, created no little amusement, for while the
Prince is only seven years old, and, of course, very
short for a ball-room performance, his partner was
princely in dimensions as well as in titles. The
Princess Anna wore n Neapolitan costume. The.
Princess Nalhilde Bonaparte was in the costume of.
Anne of Cleves, of Holbein, and wore the whole of
• her famous collection of emeralds. The Princess
Clotiltie Bonaparte, with the hair frosted, had also
'''copied a picture from the Louvre, and her robe
of brocart glistened like a rising sun. The Prin
cess Gabriella (Augustine Bonaparte) was in
Syrian coltume. The Princess de Metternich
in Night, illuminated with diamonds. The
Countess de Persigny in burning fire. The
Countess Walewska in Amazon Louie XIV.,
powdered hair, corn.colored robe, gold but
tons. The Belle Italian Countess Castiglione,
dressed In a costume remarkable for its want of cos
tume, was the hit of the evening. She was dressed
as " Salammho," copied front the new Clarthagenian
romance of Gustave Flaubert, author of Madame
Bovary. Naked arms and shoulders, short dress, and
feet naked in candela, dress of black velvet, falling
straight, with a long train, which latter was borne
by the young Count tie Choiseul, who, in turn, had'
lint face blackened to represent an Egyptian page,
and who, besides carrying the train of the famous
daughter of Hamilcar, held over her head an um
brella of the genuine Robinson Crusoe dimensions.
The superb Carthagenoise wore on her head a die.
dent Of gold; her robe, which was without waist,
was held by a rich clasp of diamonds, and was copied
exactly after the floating tunics worn by the women
of the upper classes in the period of Carthageninn his
tory in which Salammbo lived. She promenaded
not on the arm of the faithful Matho of the romance,
but on that of the Count Walewska, who delivered
her over to the Emperor, and who, in turn, left her
to enjoy a long and close conversation with the
young 011es - eller N 1 a, Italian ambassador at Paris.
The' surprise" of the evening was the " Quadrille
des Abeilles.” At 12 o'clock several large beehivet
were carried in by villagers in the costume of Wat
leates pictures, and from them issued a charming
and graceful swarm of bees, among whom were the
Princesses Trouhetskoi and Dolgoroulci, Medlles.
13reneard, Coppens, Maven, De Teacher, De Vatry,
Rintlinkoft; Erman, Pereira, dressed in golden cor
sage and shining wings, and who at once proceeded
to dance the quadrille, which had been arranged and
taught them for the occasion by Merante, of the
Grand Opera.
A NEW 'FRENCH ROMANOE.—M. de Villa
=enfant, the editor of the Paris Figaro, some time
since informed his renders that he was the illegiti
mate eon of an unmarried lady of noble family
whose name he bore; that out of filial respect for his
mother's memory he had long withheld the legal
evidence of his parentage, hut that being harassed
and persecuted by some of his mother's relations,
represented by them as an impostor,
and actually
prosecuted by them in a court of lawfor bearing a
name to which ther alleged he had no right, he felt
it his duty to his children to lay aside the scruples
which had so long restrained him, and to lay the
whole case before the tribunals of the country. The
action arose In the form of a demand for a judicial
declaration that the plaintiff is in reality the natural
son of the late Mademoiselle Louise Delaunay
de Villemessant, the daughter of Philippe . De
!Runny de Villemessant, one of the bodyguards
of Louis XVI., by his wife, Louise Hurault de
Saint Denis. M. Lachaud, counsel for M. de Ville.
aneesant, stated, in substance, that the mother of his
client, a lady of excellent family in Metairie, was
seduced by a Colonel Cartier, whom she accompanied
throughout Europe in the wars of the Empire, in
'which he greatly distinguished himself. By him she
bad two children, the plaintiff, born at Rouen in
MO, and a girl named Isoline, now deceased. The
mother, after her elopement, bore the name of Car
tier, and that name was habitually given to her chil
dren during their infancy. Nevertheless, when the
present plaintiff, at the age of sixteen, went through
the Catholic ceremony of the first communion, he
was described by his name of de Villemessant, which
Was then recognized both by his mother and grand
mother. A certificate of his birth at Rouen, in which
he was described as the sonof Mille. de Vilemessant,
was also among the proofs. That he was the son of
bldlle. deVillemessant, was notorious in Blois, where
be was known as a dare-devil boy, and where, to all
those who knew his mother, the striking likeness
spoke for itself. The only (11111culty in the case was
that, at the age of el, M. de Villemeasant fell in love
and married without his mother's consent. On that
occasion, in order to evade the law, he procured an
" act of notoriety," in which he was described by the
name of Cartier, and as having been born in Poland,
of "parents unknown." Soon after the marriage, his
mother forgave him, mad he lived on terms of affection
with her until her death, which happened in a most
tragical way in 1847. Colonel Cartier had then been
long dead, and she, having lost a lawsuit in which the
whole of her expects (1 fortune was involved,wfuo living
in Paris in great poverty. DI. de Villemessant, him
self poor at that time, had helped his mother to the
best of his ability, and one of the proofs of her as
knowlesigment of him as her son was a bill in her
favor, drawn by him, and endorsed by her. However,
in 1847, Mile. de Villemessant and her daughter Iso
line committed suicide together, leaving letters in
which they desired that their little furniture in their
lodging . at Montmartre might be given to the plain
tiff. Ever since that time, the name of de Ville
niessiint has been borne by the plaintiff without dis
pute. But, very lately, M. Onzain and Madame
Vezein, the legitimate nephew and niece of his
mother, brought nn action against him in Paris, in
whic,h they alleged that his only real name was
Cartier, and that he had no right to bear the family
name of al. de Villemessant. In answer to this
action the plaintiff, not wishing to brand the memory
of his mother contented himself with pleading the
notoriety of ' his name of de Villemessant.. The
tribunal of Paris, however, held that, in the face of
the "act of notoriety " obtained by himself on the
occasion of his =fringe, the evidence of contrary
notoriety was not suMcient, and it 'accordingly
granted nn injunction against his liaingthe name of
de Villemessant. M. do Villemessant appealed, and
the Court of Appeal has Just decided that, "from
all the circumstances of the case, it resulted that
the child born at Rouen in 1810,.and duly registered
there, was the appellant, and that he was conse
quently entitled to bear the name of de Villemessant,
as legally belonging to him."
THE GREAT FRENCH NECROMANCER.—
There is one M. Edmond in Paris, who is said to
gain 100,0001. yearly by revealing "the past, present,
and future:" His establishment is the real thing.
The astrologer is dressed in a black velvet robe and
cap, decorated with hieroglyphics, and gold chains
round his neck. Before him is a table on which he
spreads the netronomically-illuminated cards. One
stream of daylight is allowed to light the chamber,
by slatting through colored glass, and falling on a
skull. A pleasing niyaterimis twilight prepares the
curious for N. Edmond's revelations. Early in the
morning and throughout the day M. Edmond , ' rooms
are crowded by the old and the young of both sexes,
and of all classes of society. They are mostly
women, and young women; and often that class of
human beings who, from imprudence and Idleness,
have got into some trouble, and believe eventually
that " something will turn up" to get them out of it.
When M. Edmond has done his daily work he has
to write his "correspondence" for abroad. People
consult him from all parts of the world. M. Edmond
is a clever man, and no laborer in Paris works harder.
MISS COUTTS AND WEBSTER.— Miss Bur
dett Coutts (the wealthiest single lady In the world)
is said to be the generous supporter of Feohter, the
manager of the new dramatic enterprise in London.
Though, very often, surprises to the public, as in the
present case, the munificent bestowals of bounty, by
this queen of the banking-house, are always ulti
mately found to . have been very discriminating.
Feohter, we are very sure, is this harbinger of an
advance In. art. "At a breakfast party at this la
dy's house, in iSIO," says N. P. Willis, "we saw
Daniel Webster sit at her side for two hours ; and
it was curious to see two such different potentiali
ties—each quite a monarch in its way—exchanging
the common courtesies of life over every-day
bread and butter! In the quiet and kindly con
fldingness with which they talked together, there
was (it seemed to us!) an instinctive and reciprocal
recognition of each other's superiority. His godlike
eyes felt the presence of her millions—and vice
versa
A CURIOUS EX PERINEENT.—Take a piece of
pasteboard, about five inches square, roll it into a
tube with one end just large enough - to fit around
the eye, and the other end rather smaller. Hold the
tube between the thumb and finger of the right hand
(do not grasp with in the whole hand); put the large
end close to the right eye, and with the left hand hold
shook to the side of the tube. Be sure and keep both
eyes open, and there will appear to be a hole through
the book, and objects seen as if through the hole, in
stead ofthroneb the tube. The right eye sees through
the tube and the left eye aces the book, and the two
m
appearances e so confounded together that they
cannot be seperated. The left hand can .be held
against the tube instead of a book, and the hole will
seem to be seen.through the hand.
A DISASTROUS VOYAGE —lnformation was
received at Liverpool on the 12th, that the screw
steamer Zara, hence for New York, had again put
beak to Queenstosvn. She left that port on the 15th
of December, .1862, and after encountering moat bois
terous weather put back to Queenstown, short of
coals, on the 7th ult. Having coaled, she proceeded
to sea on the 1811,, and again was compelled, after
fighting' her way near across the Atlantic, to put
back to Queenstown, end reached it in safety, after
being out 58 days from Liverpool and 27 from Queens
town. Latest accounts from the ship state that she
is again coaling previous to starting once more for
her destination.. The Zara is an Iron screw-steamer
of 1,006 tons aed 160-horse power, built only last
year, and the present is only her second voyage.
NUMBER OF PRISONERS IN ENGLAND
AND WALES.—It appears from a Parliamentary
return that the number of prisoners confined in the
several prisons and reformatories in _England and
Wales on the 10lb July, 1862, was—males 17,761 ;
females, 4,204 ; total, 12,065. Of this number, 664,
or 3.2 per cent., were brought up in workhouse or
district schools for various Periods, ranging from
one day to five years and upwards, thus: 22 had
been in 'school lon a period ranging from I to 6 days ;
48 from 1 to 3 weeks, 214 from I.to it months ; 238
from 1 to 6 years ; 70 upwards of 6 yore - 25 had
been in school, but the period is not stated.
THE THEATRE OF EPIIESUS.—The ancient
theatre of Ephesus has recently been examined end
measured. It must have been the largest ever •
erected. Its diameter was 860 feet, 40 more than
the major axis of the Coliseum. Allowing fifteen
Inches or each person, it would accommodate 66,700
spectators. This edifice was the scene of Appolo
rdus' miracles. It is memorable for the uproar de
ocribed in Acts xIX, when the Ephesians accused
Paul and the Christiana in this very , building. To
this edifice the writer to the Corinthians alluded
probably, when he said: If, after the manner of
men, I have fought With beasts at Ephesus, what
advantageth it met"
COTILLIONS FASHIONABLE.—One of the
characteristics of the soirdes at the Tuileries is the
injunction laid upon all men by the Empreas to dance
the colillon. Neither age nor profession are exempt.
The Emperor laughs heartily at hisown and others'
awkwardness, but accepts the obligation with good
humor. The new figure—lntroduced lasttime only 7.
was called "The Mule of Amgen," and'consists in
the endeavor to hook the little bell with which each
dancer is armed to the dress of the leader; the effect
of the jingling and the excitement of the pursuit
make this one of the prettiest figures yet invented.

AOItICULTURE-TUN CULTIVATION 01 , SOTIONUN.-
Yesterday the Philadelphia Society for Promoting
Agriculture held,their regular monthly meeting, at
the rooms, on Walnut street. Craig Diddle, Esq.,
presided, and 1)r. Kennedy acted as secretary.
Several donations were received and communica
.
dons presented in reference to agricultural and
kindred subjects.
An interesting discussion upon the cultivation of
tne Chinese sugar plant, known as sorghum suer;
took place, and many new facts in relation to it were,
adduced. A sample of the article was presented by
Mr. Milton Conrad, of Westgrove, and its merits
were practically tested by the members. Mr. Con
rad addressed the Society at some length, explain
ing the manner of its culture, and the prospective
importanee of sorghum in the commerce of Penn
sylvania. He claimed that the development of sorg
hum should be urged on the ground of domestic
economy. He stated, as his belief, that the moment
remmllvania shall have introduced the culture of
the Chinese sugar cane regularly into her system of
husbandry, she will add to her positive 'wealth an
nually, over And above her present savings, more
than a million of dollars.
The aggregate of syrup made in Chester and adja
cent counties the past season cannot have fallen
short of 32,000 gallons, a gain of two to one over last
year ; and from present appearances Chester county
alone will exceed this quantity the coining season.
The sorghum plant may be said to be a vigorous
and determined grower ; yet, being of foreign intro
duction, it has been liable to failure from disease in
duced by the rigor of our climate, unless its nature
and habits arc carefully studied.
While the full-grown plant far outstrips the In
dian corn, its seeds are so small that one grain of
corn will outweigh twenty of them. Hence the
plant in the early stages of its growth must necessa
rily be delicate and feeble. Here lies the only criti
cal point In Its culture.
In poor soil, with a chance frosty night after it
has come up, and dry, parching winds by day, the
plant sometimes sickens, and either becomes the
prey of insects, or dies outright.
The following embraces briefly the outline of a
method of culture which has, so far as Mr. Conrad's
experience and observation have reached, fully
counteracted till constitutional tendency to disease,
and secured a vigorous and healthy growth through
out. Any other method, however, by which the
diminutive plant shall be stimulated in its infancy
to n vigorous growth, and the other conditions ful
filled, may succeed equally well.
In choice of Boil, the speaker would select upland,
light loam or sandy. It should be of sufficient
strength to produce forty or fifty bushels of corn to
the acre. Plough deeply in March, and cultivate
thoroughly in the early part of May; procure pure
well•ripened • seed, four quarts to the acre, and for
the same amount of ground one hundred and fifty
to two hundred pounds of finely-powdered super
phosphate of lime, to be applied in the drills. Scald
the seed, and keep moist and warm till it has begun
to sprout ; dry with plaster, drop in light furrows,
and cover to the depth of one-half to three fourths
of an inch. When up, and the plant has four or five
leaves, it should be partially thinned, but this pro
eras should be conducted with care, seeking to retain
the strongest plants, to be selected from on subse
quent occasions, until reduced to eight or ten inches
in the row. When the cane is thick enough without
the suckers advantage will result from their re
moval in the subsequent handling, and a heavier
crop will be realized. Such trentre ent, with thorough
cultivation till about three feet high, will secure
crop, varying according to the Lesson, of front one
hundred and fifty to two hundred and fiftygallons of
syrup to the acre,
The cane may be regarded as fit to work up when
a majority of the heads have become brown. At
this stage it may be cut off (obliquely) at the ground,
the tops lopped off' below the upperjoint, bladed
and tied into bundles, and shocked or piled where it
can be sheltered from the sun and weather. In this
condition it may remain, if necessary, and without
damage, for some weeks.
Of the cost of manufacture Mr. Conrail said syrup,
such as sample, can be made with profit for to cents
per gallon, when the cane is properly handled and
furnished in suitable quantity.
He spoke in general terms of the method of menu•
facture, as his buildings and the fixtures were free
for examination, and their owner always willing to
render any information that his experience can sug
gest.
He uses Clark's vertical three-roller, four-horse,
mill, and Cook's patent evaporator, Ito. 5, capable
of producing twelve to eighteen gallons of syrup per
hour, according to the richness of thejuice. It is an
interesting fact connected with the crop of the past
season, be said, that the juice, weighed by sacharo
meter, ranged from nine to fourteen degrees, while
ordinarily it has weighed from six to eleven degrees.
This difference is attributable to the extraordinary
drought of -the season, but dot at all calculated to
confirm the suspicion that the cane will depreciate
in our climate.
Now, it followed that the agricultural interests of
the States where sorghum can be successfully raised,
and in common with these, the interests of our
whole people will be promoted by the early intro
duction of its culture. The superior quality of the
syrup and sugar, the peculiar necessities of our
present political condition, our natural love of in
dependence, combinedl with the consideration of the
very limited amount of capital necessary to establish
the manufacture, it seems should stimulate every
farmer to introduce the culture of the cane, and
should prompt enterprising men in every neighbor
hood to provide establishments for its manufac
ture.
At the conclusion of Mr. Conrad's statement sevo•
ral questions were asked, which were satisfactorily
replied to. Among them, one as to the comparative
profitableness of the sorghum crop, as compared
with the cultivation of Indian corn. Mr. Conrad
stated, as his experience, that of Indian corn, fifty
buehels could be raised to the acre. In the fall, at
the time the syrup is sold, the corn realizes about
seventy cents clear of expenses, which is lees than
the proceeds of an acre of ground planted with
sorghum, yielding about two hundred gallons.
Dr. Kennedy, secretary of the society, stated that
this was the first time that so full and explicit an
explanation was made regarding this important
subject, though many references had been made re
specting the conversion of sorghum into sugar. The
eocietysoon after adjourned.
.141KITUPACTURE or WHISKY.—The manu
facture of whisky has, of late years, become quite a
business in Bucks county. There are no less than
five places where apple whisky is made. The whisky
made in Bucks county is all distilled from the juice
of apples, and mostly made for farmers by the
shares. The distiller converts the cider into whisky,
and keeps about one-third of the product for his
pay. A forty-gallon cask of cider will make about
ten gallons of whisky of ordinary strength. Some
times the distiller takes the apples fresh from the
trees and, returns a stipulated amount of liquor.
Years ago the apple-whisky business was quite
common in Bucks county, and many farmers thought
it es important to have a barrel of whisky for family
use as a barrel of vinegar. But times have changed,
and whisky has lost the eminence it once enjoyed.
The Immense crop of apples last fall no doubt sug
gested the making of them into whisky, as many
people had more than they knew what to do with.
GOVERNMENT PIWYERTY.—A recent army
order prohibits any citizen from wearing a United
States uniform, no matter how he came by it,
whether by purchase or otherwise. Discharged
soldiers have a right to wear a uniform as a badge
of honor. The provost guards in the different parts
of the State have been instructed to act under this
order, and take from every citizen any portion of
the uniform or buttons of the United States army
which they may wear in public. It is well that these
facts should be known. A•peanut man, whose stand
is located on Uheanut street, had, recently, the but
tons cut from his coat by one of the provost guard.
Many of the by-standers did not understand the
meaning of this set, and were loud in the denuncla-
Mons against the guard, who were only carrying out
the instructions of the War Department.
FURS ANTI Sarics.—Muskrat, mink, and
other skins are greatly in demand, and are bringing
fai uric's& The business of trapping and collecting
furs is calmed on to a great extent in many of the
counties of this State. There are two kinds of
muskrats—one known as the black, and the other
the red or lightbrown muskrat. The black skin is
now worth 25 cents, while the red will only bring
about 20 cents. Mink skinsare worth from $3 to $4,
according to quality. Most of these skins are ex
ported to Europe; where they are used. Although •
the skunk is a repulsive animal, yet the collecting
of the skins is quite an extensive business in the
back part of this State, and thousands of the skins
are exported to Europe, where they are highly
valued for the fur, on account of the black and white'
color of the skin being so beautifully defined.
DEATH OF A Pan,ADELpfriAN.---On Sun
day, March 1, Mr. Frederick Morris, a member of
Co. 3 , , of the 27th Fenneylvania Volunteers, died in
the hospital of the Arsenal, in Washington, D. C.,
of typhoid fever. Mr. Morris was universally liked
by the members of his company, and hie death has
thrown a shade of gloom over them not easily to be
dispelled. His comrades made all preparations
necessary had his body embalmed, and sent to the
home of his sorrowing parents. No one but those
situated in like circumstances can feel how sad is
the final parting from one who was always a
pleasant comrade and a true friend.
PROMOTION.—We notice with pleasure
the promotion of Sergeant Major John W. Wood

Regiment P. V. Sergeant Major Woodward Joined
hie regiment at the outbreak of the rebellion as
third rergeant, And by his own merits and bravery
ban Tilled step by step to his present position. This
gallant young °Meer is connected with what is
known better se General Joe Hooker's lighting bri
gade, and has been in every battle with the above
general. We doubt not that we shall noon speak of
his further advancement
lall'llOTEMElCT.—Efforts are being made,
with considerable success, in the subscription of
stock for a macadamized read, starting from the Wis.
sahiclion turnpike, to Township- ine road, thence to
Twenty-second street, and thence by way of Lamb
Tavern to Broad street, for which a charter was ob
tained some years ago. Should this road be built,
it will be a great accommodation to a large amount
of travel; and this accommodation would be greatly
increased by the stoning of Manbeim street, as, by
resolution submitted to Councils, it is contemplated
to do.
THE "RARENESS CONSIURACY CASE.”—
From the court proceedings, published in another
column of our paper this morning, it will be seen
that the charge made by Mr. John Harkness against
his mothers, Messrs. Charles H. and Norris W.
Harkneae, clothing merchants of this city, for con
spiracy to defraud, has not been sustained, and the
defendants have consequently been discharged.
Judge Allison, In his decision of the case, which
was quite lengthy, said that from the prosecutor's
own showing there could not possibly have been
any combination against him and no conspiracy.

THE POLICE.
Vicious Girls.
Recently, as the readers of The Press know, quite a
number of arrests were - made of little girls who hail
been in the habit of going into counting-houses,
brokers' and lawyers' offices, and other business
places under pretence of selling matches or apples.
Such a profession is not the kind for little girls to
follow. It makes them coarse, vulgar, rude, and
strips from them all that refines the female charac
ter ; they become brazen, and are speedily cast from
respectable society. There are many temptations
which surround little girls who follow the business
of apple or match selling. They soon lose the art
less characteristics of childhood, and become capable
of telling lies, no matter how atrocious they may be.
In the recent developments made before air. Alder
man Welding, consequent upon the arrest of a score
or so of these bad girls, it seemed as though they de
lighted in relating the most disgusting stories at the
expense of very aged men, some of, whom are noted
for their undeviating morality and even religion.
Trembling with feeble old age—trembling mentally
with fear of having their good, name tarnished by
the publication of the girls' statements, caused
morality to weep over the melancholy scene of
so much juvenile depravity, sporting with and'
torturing silver-haired respectability, These girls,
brazen to the fait degree, running like so
many streams from an impure fountain, must
have bad a moat pernicious example set them
at home. Their mothers, or those who pretend to be
such, have much to abswer for. There is an in
stiativeModesty about a girl, even before reaching
the age of reason, that may be considersd heavenly.
But it dies under the pestilential influence of ma
ternal immorality, and the girls are reduced to
wretchedness, misery, and despair before reaching
the age of womanhood. They become a byword and
reproach among sensible young men, and the mere
toys or playthingii of beastly, lecherous individuals,
who are always to be found in large cities. The
moral responsibility - that rests upon parents or guar
diens is heavy, •and public decency, if nothing
else, will hold them accountable for the painful
rends for want of proper attention to those
whom nature has committed to their charge. In
the recent eases that came under our personal or
professional observation, we came to the conclusion
that some of the women were indeed sorry their
offapring had been arrested. They seemed to be
come rather melancholy, when the magistrate
doomed the wayward; bold, bad girls to the House
of Refuge. Since that time, some effort hag been
made to have a few of the worst girls liberated, from
which it is fair to presume they had been merely
used for purposes of extortion. It was necessary to
have them restored to liberty to effect the resump
tion of so detestibble au object. Morality may well
shudder in contemplating such a theme. There
were, however, in that crowd of offending juveniles.,
some who had just taken their first steps on the road
that unquestionably leads to moral death. The
mothers of these became sick, sonic of them
fainted when the hideous facts were developed.
These girls are not beyond redemption. The
House of Refuge may he to them just what the
institution was organized for ; but for the others the
Refuge can have no beneficial effect while mothers
or guardians are BO shamefully prone to immorality.
What aglorious blessing It would be if there was a
house of correction, to which such mothers might be
sent for a short time! The moral atmosphere then
would soon be disinfected of the upas that now im
pregnates it by the presence of such an abominable
class of women. Public society would be less
shocked, and public morals would go up fifty per
cent., and there would he less' to disturb us in the
reverential love and respect we entertain for the
virtuous of the female sex generally. Messrs.
Adams and Tate have done society an essential ser
vice, for, since the arrest of the apple-girls, others
have been withdrawn from such a profession, by
mothers who were not aware of the real doings of
the worst of the girls. The result is, the trade has
been abandoned to corns extent; we hear less ex
piessions, "Buy any apples to-day, sir"' " Mother's
sick ;" "Father's in the army ;" "Father was
killed in battle," or a host of other similar ex
pressions, well arranged by older heads to disarm
opposition, or to cause a tear to start in the eye of
sympathy, charity, or humanity. Since the allu
sion to the arrests, as made in the press generally,
little girls [lnd many a repulse in their efforts to sell
their apples, cakes, matches, or candy. The words
"Clear out of here,"_ " Never show your face here
again," have started them into comparative ob
scurity. For the sake of morality, common de
cency, humanity, and the well-being of society, we
hope the officers will not relax their eftlarts in the
good work they have already done, but rid the com
munity of the presence of the little apple girls en
tirely. All persons who cherish moral sentiments,
who are friendly to their fellow-beings, will find no
fault, but, on the contrary, will speak of the work
in terms of commendation.
[Before Mr. Alderman Beltler.
Policy Hit and Larceny. -
A case came up before Mr. Alderman Beitler M
idday, from which it seems the policy business still
flourishes.
A. colored man, named Adam Craig, was arrested
by Ofilcer Yoder, on complaint of a colored woman
known as Maria. She charged him with stealing
$lB from her. On giving in her evidence, she said
that she had made a hit.
"A hit," said the alderman, " what did you hit ?"
"A policy," replied Maria.
"Tell us all about it," said the magistrate, "in
your own way?"
" Well, yea ash. Well, you see, alderman; I runs
on threes long enough and did not get nauthen;
then, thinks 1, Pm gwang to try fours; so says I,
I'm bound to try 4, 11, 44, bekase as you see four

the magistrate.
"Ain't a word of breezed trnfe in it, kase I didn't

Adam was committed, in default of ball, to answer
the charge of larceny.

Coal Picker Arrested.
Bridget Campbell Was arraigned before Mr. Al
derman Hutchinson, yesterday, on the charge of
purloining cos), the property of the Reading Rail
road Company. Bridget was caught in the act.
She belongs to that class who are always prowling
about picking up bits of odd coal. It may seem
rather hard to arrest a poor woman for an offence
that seems so light, but when the aggregate amount
of coal thus taken is computed by the year, the
figures seem important. It is estimated that over
five hundred tons of coal were purloined during the
past year by that class of persons represented by
Bridget. She was committed to answer.
[Before 51r. Alderman White.]
Constructive Larceny.
A- case, which happens once in a great while,
came up before Mr. Alderman White. of the Fifth
ward, yesterday afternoon. Julia Debrun, the wife
of the proprietor of .a South-street Jelv clothing
stole, was arraigned on complaint of Mary Barrett
on the charge of the larceny of ten dollars. The cir
cumstances are these: Mrs. Barrett has a son .in
the army. A short time since he sent hie mother fifty
dollars in treasury notes. She received one twenty,
two tens, and two. fives. She paid some debts, and
retained the twenty-dollar note and'one of the tens.
She went to the store of Debrun and purchased a
dress for five dollars. She tendered one of the notes
in payment, and received five dollars in change. On
the next day, on looking into her port monnale, it
not having been out of her possession at any time,
she discoved a ten and a five-dollar note. She had
given the $2O, in mistake for a $lO, when• she paid for
the dress. On explaining the matter to Mrs. De
brun, the latter refused to " fork over," alleging
that it was not a twenty-dollar note that she had re
ceived.
It so happened that the proeecutrix had a friend
with her when she bought the dress, who remembers
very• well that she had a $2O note and a $lO note,
These were about all the facts that were allotted.
The magistrate required the defendant to enter bail
in the sum of $l,OOO to answer at court.
A case of this nature was tried in our criminal
court seven or eight months since. A Mrs. Taylor
paid, in mistake, for a bundle of pennies a bundle of
quarter dollars, to a Jew clothier on Second street.
She did not miss the money, or rather discover the
mistake, until ehe reached her .home at Bridesburg.
In a day or two she returned to the store, and de•
mended return of the silver. The proprietor refused.
She entered Butt against him, and he was convicted.
Ile was granted a new trial afterwards, and thus the
case was ended. We learned that he restored the
money to Mrs. Taylor, and it's safe to presume that
be tinnily made up his mind that going to criminal
law was an expensive operation,
(Before Mr. Alderman Welding.) •
Suit Between two ()Metals.
Janice McClintock, Esq., the City Treasurer, was
arraigned before Mr. Alderman Welding, on Tues
day evening, on the charge of threatening Alderman
McCahen, of the Fifth ward. It seems that Alder
man McCahen went to the City Treasurer's office
on Tuesday to get a couple of warrants cashed, and
that the defendant, in his official capacity, ordered
him to leave or he would kick him out. The alder
man did go out, and proceeded at once to. Alderman
Welding's office and had the warrant issued. The
prosecutor insisted on having the case returned to
court, and the defendant entered bail to answer.
From evidence irrelevant to the case, it c does not
seem that the relations between the prosecutor and
defendant are anything like amiable, Upon enter
ing the office, Dr. McClintock addressed the prose
cutor, and asked if he had received a note from him.
The prosecutor replied. " I answer no questions. ,,
There is supposed to be some more cause than ap
pears upon the face of things in this case to warrant
the Olty Treasurer in acting as he did. It is stated
that Alderman McCalien had obtained n number of
warrants upon which the city was sued and judg
ment and costs obtained. Dr. DlcOlintoolc, as the
City Treasurer, in his endeavors to guard - the in
terests of the city, most decidedly disapproved of
any suits against the city in times such as we had a
few months ago. Whether the two warrants pre
sented by the Alderman on Tuesday were those on
which judgment had been obtained or not was not
publicly stated. Besides this, Alderman ItloOshen
made a sweeping assertion that the City Treasurer
has a hundred thousand dollars invested in two per
cent. bonds or securities. It is evident that a pretty
big storm is culminating between Professor Mc-
Clintock and the Alderman, and these side remarks
are simply the eddying gusts preliminary to the
genera/ whirlwind that prostrates as it goes along.

THE CASE OF DR. NEWTON, CHARON!) WITH ASSAULT
AND BATTERY-UE IS ACQUITTED
Dr. 3... K. Newton was put on trial yesterday,
charged with having committed an assault and bat
tery on Eliza Burgen, a child aged three years, to
whom she had been taken for medical treatment.
The evidence for the Commonwealth showed the
I ' ' 1 i : t .: MARCH 5. 1863
following facts: In the summer of 1851 this little
girl had a fall, which injured her knee joint to such
en extent that swelling. was produced, and she was
unable to walk freely. For sonic time her parents
had her treated in various ways, but, no permanent
relief being• allbnied, they concluded 'to take her to
the defendant, whose reputation for effecting won
derful cures had reached them.
On Thanksgiving day last, therefore, in the after
noon, they took her to the doctor's office, and aft&
examining her leg, he operated upon her. The child
was laid on her father's lap, face down, and while in
this position, the doctor rained her feet several
times with one hand. while lie pressed the other on
the small of her back. Her father noticed, at the
time, that something snapped during this process of
treatment, but paid no attention to it. The child
screamed a great deal, and the doctor told 'him to
put hie hand over her mouth ; nothing was noticed
on the child until the Sunday following, when her
mother, while washing her, discovered this protu
berance on the spine ; the father then took her to
Dr. DeLacy's, at Fourth and South streets, who in
formed him that her spine was dislocated. On the
next day he called on the defendant, and he told him
to bring the child up on the following morning;
this he did, and then told the defends of this snap
he had heard.
The defendant told him that that waseaUsed by
the putting in Place of a joint that had been dislo
cated. and that if he would bring the child back in
about three weeks—in the meantime having her
back bathed with. hot water—he would fix it. The
child was not taken back. The defendant never at
any time made nay charge whatever for treating
her. Among the other physicians called was Dr.
:Tames It: McClintock, and,' after examining the
child, he testified that she had been nnd was afflicted
with scrofula ; that it was an insidious disease, and
approached its culmination gradually ; that this
protuberance on the beck was caused by curvature
of the spine, which might very probably have been
produced by scrofula ; that in hie opinion it was very
improbable that the . treatment he had received
from Dr. Newton' had caused it; although it might
Possibly have tended to hasten its development.
When this testimony had been heard, the district
attorney said It would be very unsafe to convict on
such testimony as this. There was nothing 'in the
evidence to show criminality or blame in the defen
dant, and it would be highly improper to ask for a
conviction. Thejury accordingly returned a verdict
of not guilty.
THE NARK'S - F.6S CONSPIRACY CASP. — RISCRAROP. Or
Charles and Norris Harkness, who. were heard
some time ago on a writ of habeas corrnis sur charge
of conspiracy to defraud their brother: John Hark
ness, in the settlement of the affairs of. the partner
ship of Charles Harkness & Sons, were discharged
yesterday by .Tudge Allison. The charge . grew out
of the sale of the partnership effects on judgment
confessed by Charles Harkness, and the question
raised on the hearing, and for the decision of winch
the case went over then, was whether a partner,
after the dissolution of a firm, could, even for a
partnership debt, confess a .judgment which bound
part nership property. .
Judge Allison said that this question was the vital
point in the case. The Commonwealth alleged that
the judgment was confessed for a private debt, while
the defence alleged, on the other hand, that it was
confessed by the liquidating partner for a partner
ship debt. After a careful review of the decisions
of the Supremo Court, the Judge said that he had
come to the conclusion that a liquidating. partner
had no authority to confess ajudgment for apartner
ship debt that would bind anything but his own
interest; that it was void as to the other partners,
and a sale under it conveyed' nothing but his own
title; that, therefore, the sale under the judgment
confessed in the case passed only Charles Harkness'
title, and did not touch John Harkness' interest;
that there then could be no combination against him,
and no conspiracy, even taking the strongest ground
against defendants, alleged by the Commonwealth,
because the sale did not affect him: He had still
his remedy at law, and could compel the purchaser
to account. For these reasons the defendants were
discharged.

WONDERFUL. DISOOVER3F AND

PROF. C. H. BOLLES, 12.20 WALNUT Street. —The
difference between fact and fiction:, of permanently
curing the suffering of their dtrease. 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 lifter health, upon atten
tively reading the following certificates of cases from
some of the most reliable gentlemen of Pht ladelphirt, who
were permanently cured by Prot 0. IL 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 certificates 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 Prot BOLLES' dis
covery, and there same persons aro really ignorant of the
Positive or Negative Poles of any Electrical Machines,
and therefore, Prof. BOLLE3 has cautioned the sick

nate disease-9 by Pref. Bolles, 1220 IVainut Street,
Philadelphia.
The 'fret cure 7 , XLEI performed thin nears ago, and
continues well tothtr da e:
About nine years , ago I ad a eevere attack of dyspeptic
symptoms, which increased on me during the whole
time, and I supposed, and also my physicians that
treated me. that my real disease was dyspepsia, and at
first was treated 'for that disease. My symptoms were at
first great hunger, and had and exhausted feeling in the
stomach, only . when I ate often. Sometimes, however,
experienced loss of appetite very disagreeable nausea
in the stomach, pain In the epira.strunt, heartburn, great
fullness about the stomach, and pain thooug,h the pyloric
region; a feeling sometimes of great weight in the sto
mach. collection of acidity In the stomach, fetid
taste in the mouth. When the sense of imager came
on as above described, I hail a sense of fluttering
about the chest, and a sinking faint-feeling at the
pit of the stomach , which was, in inyfirst attacks, re
lieved only by taking fond. and many times in my walks
through the streets of Phlladerphia, when these sinking
spels tikee on I was obliged to call at some restaurant
and food, 'lint this only relieved MO for the present
time, and thus !suffered for years under the best medi
cal treatment In the city. however, my physician at
last pronounced my disease mimeo 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 to
this city and advertised his important dimmers in the
application of Galvanism and other modifications of
Blectricity, for the cure of (as he • announced) acute and
chronic diseases., and more especially cancers, tumors,
white swelling. Ss. I Immediately called on Prof.
Bolles, at P.M Walnut street, for advice iu my case. I
will here state that I considered my rase , a hopeless one,
brit notwithstandis. my hopes were at once re
vived. when Prof... E frankly told me that he could
cluro me In a few day s, and Inm frank tu saying that iu
twelve or fourteen treatments 1 was perfectly cured.
This cure to one looks myst means, 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 n day how long it would take to produce a cure.
I am certain of a permanent mire from the fact that
about two years have elapsed since my cure, and I have
had no symptoms of return.. I think Professor Bolles
has made a very important discovery in the application
of Electricity for the certain care of acute and chronic
diseases, know of a gnat number of persons whom he
line cured of the most obstiva te diseases. both acute and
chronic. I have watched his success for more than two
Years, and take pleasure in recommending his scientific
discovery to en fferin g humanity. I shall take pleasure
in being referred to by the diseased.
11. C. SIIURTLEPP,
3722 MkRKET Street.
The following wonderful mu., of Epilepsy was per
formed more than eight month's' ago and refitting Well
to Mt* dote.
Read the following attentively :
The following is a statement of facts in reference to my
condition and astonishing mu of Epilepsy:
For five years previous to my knowledge of Professor
C. IL Bolles' discovery of the therapeutic administra
tion of Galvanism, Magnetism, and other modifications
of Electricity-for the cure of all acute and chronic
diseases, I had been severely afflicted with Epileptic
Fits of the most obdurate character, and bad abandoned
all hopes of ever .being cured, as I had far years tried
the treatment and received the counsel of the moat emi
nent Medical Men of the States, with the view of obtain
ing relief! any could be found among the Old Schools:
but all my efforts were unavailing, and, therefore, all
hopes were abandoned, as I then kuew 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 discovery of Prof. C. If. Bol
les, 1220 Walnut street, and, after noticing several
certificates of cures which were published, end some
from persons 'with whom I was acenainted. and
knew them to 'he reliable men, 7 was irduted to
call on the Professor, and obtain his opinion of my case.
After he had examined ate about ten minutes, he frankly
infornied me that he could cure PIP. and offered to give
me a written warrantee of rt complete care, and in CASA
of a failure to charge me nothing. This at first seemed
an impossibility; but the franknao and earnestness of
the Professor convinced me of his scientific accuracy in
the diagnosis of my ease. Ho disclosed all my SU Waring's
and symptoms for five yearspast as well as I knew them
myself. -I will bore elate, for the good of humanity,
and' especially thole' snfrolng A 3 I was. that I amr
fectly cured. I further would state that more than fur
months have elapsed since my once, and I have had no
symptoms,' and, therefore. feel confident that I am cored.
I shall take pleasure in being referred to at any time, by
any one suffering as I won. and any information of my
condition previous to my CIIIIIIOII be, freelygiven to any
One at 1542 North THIRTEENTH Street, Philadelphia.
