Contested. Scats.
The resolution offered lest Thursday by Mr. PArgygg,
to inquire into the right of certain members of Connell
from the Thlrtrenth, Eighth, and Ninth wards. to hold
seats in the C hamber, was taken up for consideration.
TheChuit - -tu amendment of Mr. ECK
gTBIN was In order. " t h a neo.nnisaittomlat.utra__i n th
the right of the new members from the Twenty- fi rst a nd
Twenty-fourth, Second and Third wards to a seat In
this Council."
. . . .
Mr. BOXSTBIN contended that it was only jest that
this committee of investigation bo anthorized to exam
ine into eli the contested seats of the Cowl', The ma
jority , members were willing to investigate the right
of the Union members to their seate, but aro unwilling
to extend the same courtesy to those gentlemen of their
own party who have no right whatever to claim mem
bership here. The Speaker. whose seat it was now con
templated to declare vacant, was elected in virtne of
the eherilCs proclamation—a sheriff' of opposite politics,
one, by the way, who retained possession of an Mike, to
which he was not entitled, until he was obliged to leave.
It is well know it.tlbat there is a gentleman in this body
who never presented a certificate of election, and the
Supreme Court has decided that that certificate le the
only title by which a man holds his utiles.
The PREBIDEST desired to know whether Mr. Eck
stein intended to say that any member was qualified
without having presented a certificate of election.
Mr. ECKSTEIN replied that the person referred to had
no certificate, which was In accordance with law. Mr.
E. then moved an amendment that the committee also
inquire whether the petitions of citizens in reference to
contested election cases were presented within the time
prescribed by law, and whether James Greenwood and
Isaac Leech are entitled CO scats In Common Council.
The Cu l ls decided the amendment out of order.
Mr. ECLUTEIN appealed front the decision of the Chair.
appeal, however, wax afterwards withdrawn,
and on motion of Mr.' Leigh the matter was indefinitely .
pohtponed.
Bills from Select Council.
The bill from Select Council authorizing the Board of
_Health to use the Richmond Hall as it hospital for small
pox cues was talon up.
' Mr. WiLLIA3I4ON spoke against the passage of the oral
mance, atating thnt the people of the neighborhood were
tinitaimously opposed to IL lie was confident that the
convention of the hall to such uses would greatly de
preciate the value of snrrounding property.
Mr. SINP:VN said that the Board of Health require
this ball from necessity. They would not ask for it
unless it was absolutely necessary. For one, lie wa.s
willing to subthit to the better Judgment of the men Who
devote their time to the amelioration of the public
health.
Mr. Banyan urged the adontion of the ordinance. If
it were not passed, the Board of Health would setae on
it, for they have a right to do so.
Mr. QUIN thought it bad policy to erect build Ingo for a
specific purpose, and then appropriate them for another
purpose. He was willing to extend every possible aid
to the Board of Health, to .lessen disease in the city.
Let that Board erect a temporary hospital outside of the
city, and Bounellawill foot the MIL
after some further discussion, the ordinance was inde
finitely postponed.
The reeoluilon from Select Council, instructing the
City Solicitor to inquire by what right the South and
Lombard-street Passengerßallway Company are laying
rails upon that part of the city was adopted, with an
amendment that the City Sol icitor likewise Inquire
whether the Legislature has the legal right to authorise
a railroad company to lay its rails in the city without
the previous consent of Councils.
The resolution changing the place of voting in the
Eighth precinct of the First ward gave rise to much dis
cosaion.
My. fievin moved an 'amendment that the place of
Toting beat Painiyunk road and Wharton street.
Mr. lung Paid there was no house erected at that spot.
Mt_ MIN then moved that It be designated at Tenth
and W tenon streets.
. . .
The resolution was agreed to.
All the other ordinances of Select Council wore con
cm red in.
Mr. A. W. APA3IB called up the bill in reference to
establishing a line of steamships between this port and
Europe.
Mr. PAINTER read a speech in opposition to its passage.
Re spoke of the efforts of rallroed 'meanies to control
the interests of Philadelphia. • He remembered the time
when the friends of the 'North Pennsylvania Railroad
made application to the various corporations of the city
to subscribe for its stock. The only corporation who re
sisted this influence was Kensington—Democratic Ken.;
*button; true to her faith.
Alr.Leten. Should the gentleman not have said KnoW
Nothing Kensington
This remark caused mach laeghter, aeMr. P. was net
of the Democratic faith at the time mentioned, bat
boasted in tho privilege of being a Native American.
Mr. PAINTER continued. The subscriptions amounted
to one auilhou sod a half of dollars, and yet tho stock,
said the speaker, was almost worthlesii. It is true, the
pima brlligu la Ike ally .WMI.O AAA rrillll.
118113 interrupted tbo smear by reminding him that he
might got Into the milky way. j He thought that It was
unconstitutional for the city to subscribe for the stock of
the company.
Mr, Haarna argued in favor of the ordinance, and
proved by s atistica that Philadelphia must always play
second fiddle to New York, unless she has a line of
eteameh ins of her own. In one year the imports for Phi
ladelphia, by way of New York, exceeded In valae those
direct to this port to the extent of eighteen • millions of
dollars. Hence the Importance of a direct line of steam
ships between this city and Europe. • • •
Mr. WalOllT. moved to postpone the subject until-
Thursday neXt. Agreed to,
Mr. Locouta v offered a resolution instructing the Phi
ladelphia delegation to vote against an act, now before
the Legislature, empowering the Board of Health to
snake arbitrary fora. Agreed to.
Council then adjourned.
TIIE POLICE.
[Before Mr. Alderman Beater.
A Practical Joke, Perhaps.
A half-simple young man known as George Pro
svert was arraigned, at the Central Station yester
day afternoon, on suspicion of having been engaged
in the robbery of the store of Messrs. Eyre & Lan
•dell, which took place on the night of the 23th or
morning of the 29th of January last. Mr. Edward
.Eyre testified the store had been robbed, as nearly
as could be ascertained, of silk goods to the amount
of four thousand seven hundred dollars.
The prisoner was arraigned on the oath of Peter
Smith, who resides at 1243 Coates street. The wit
ness -entered into a long detail as to an interview he
had with defendant. The latter met him in Cheat
tint street and desired him to sell some silk, for
which he might have all he could obtain over a dol
lar per yard. Smith made an agreement to meet
him the next day at the house of the mother of de,
fendant. He went there, but could not then have
another interview. In a conversation the prisoner
told him that the silk had been stolen from the store
of Messrs. Eyre & Leaden ; that he stood sentinel;
, the thieves went through the vault grating in the
eavaieset t that' had n herlf6 and wane& :A-16,,
43110113 f flint, 100lril Fourth I HlB =IP. Ming de
tached, was secreted in an alley. FroWert slid the
same party intended to go into the aountry to com
mit another robbery. An agreement was made that
Smith was to call on Frowert at his residence to
get some of the goods. He called, but failed to ob
tain any. In answer to several questions pro
pounded by the alderman, Mr. Smith replied that
his desire was not to get any of the goods, but merely
to obtain all the information he could, which he
intended to communicate to the authorities.
Sergeant Seibert, of the police, testified that he
knew the prisoner well ; considers him non compos
mensis; be induced the witness to watch a house a
whole night for thieves when there were no thieves
about• I saw him on Wednesday night, and asked
him about this affair ; he said if I would go along
with him he would show me where all the swag was
hid. The prisoner laughed, as though he considered
he had cracked a joke with the police officers. The
ease was held under advisement.
Suspicious Person.
A young man was arrested on Wednesday night
by Detectives G. H. Smith and Taggart, at the St.
Louie Hotel. The prisoner was regarded with sue
plata by one of the clerks of the establishment. The
accused had his name docketed as Edward Rivers.
Detective Smith testified that the trunk of the ac
cused was examined, and these "nippers f , were
found there)n. (Nippers shown.) Witness under
stood that several rooms had been entered at Norris
town, and the marks of nippers were upon the door
keys. Re desired to have the case further investi-
gated, until he could hear from the gentlemen at
Norristown. The accused wan committed, in default
of $1,500 1 to await a further hearing.
Postponement.
The investigation of the alleged cruelty to the
crew of the ship Northampton was to have been re.
Burned yesterday afternoon, before United States
Commissioner Heszlitt, but owing to the sickness of
United States District Attorney Uoffey, it WAS post
poned until this day week.
Burglary.
At an early hour on Wednesday morning, the
dwelling of Mr. John Miller, en aged man, located
on Fifth street;below Spruce, was feloniously catered
in the rear ; the window shutters having been pried
open. The thieves obtained an old silver watch that
had been in the family a century. Old illr. Miller
prized it very highly. It seems the house girl heard
the noise of some one on the steps, and she called
out, 66 Is that you, Mr. Miller." There was no an.
ewer. She heard the retreating footstep sounds of
the invaders, and immediately gave the alarm. The
thieves effected their escape.
[Before Mr Aldermen White.)
A Horse and Wagon Disappears.
A young man, giving the name of John Ryan, was
arraigned before Dlr. Alderman White, yesterday,
on the charge of the larceny of a horse and wagon,.
the property of Mtr.ble Sylve in Sylvester Considine, the ro
prietor of a livery savi
dence elicited sets forth the facts that, on the 10th
Inst., at 11 o ' clock in the morning, the defendant
hired the horse and wagon, to be used Unttl2 o'clock
on the same day, for the sum of $3. From that time
until Wednesday evening the defendant kept him
self aloof from the stable. The facts were made
known to the police, and Officer Sigmund arrested
the prisoner on Wednesday evening.
The accused admitted hiring the horse and wagon
and stated that on the .return to the stable on the
afternoon of the same day he stopped with a couple
of friends to take a drink with them in a tavern at
Third and (MAW streets. While inhere, his friend,
as he alleges, jumped into the wagon, and drove
away. This watt- between two and three o'clock.
Re named bie friends. One of the police officers,
stated that be saw the prisoner in company with his
two friends at about five o'clock on the same after
noon. They had not with them at that time, the horse
and wagon. The accused was committed in default
of $2,000 to answer at court. One of the parties
whom he named is well known on the police annals
of this city. His likeness is in the Rogues Gallery.
ißefore Mr. Alderman Miller.]
Assault with Intent to Kill.
William O'Donnell and George O'Donnell, were
arraigned before Mr. Alderman Miller yesterday
morning, on the charge of beating a man named
James Forbes, with intent to kill. It seems from
the evidence that Mr. Forbes resides in the vicinity
of Green street and Thirty-sixth, in the Twenty
fourth ward. On Wednesday night the defendants,
it is alleged, dragged him out of his house and beat
him in a merciless manner without any provocation.
They stated that Forbes was beating his wife, and
they only interfered to save her. She denied the
statement. The accused were required to enter bail
in the sum of $4OO each to answer at court.
[Before Mr. Alderman Hutchinson.]
Boy Run Over and Killed.
Robert Casslday, employed on Wednesday eve
ning as driver of car number ten on the Green and
Coates•street Passenger Railway, was arraigned
before Mr. Alderman Hutchtneon, on the charge of
running over a boy named John Dugah, aged IS years.
The sad event occurred near Broad and Goatee
streets. The boy's legs were shockingly Crushed. The
accused was held in the sum of WO to await the
result of the injuries to the lad. The unfortunate
youth died shortly after having been admittedlato
the St. Joseph's Hospital.

PURIFY THE BLOOD.-NOT A FEW
of the worst disorders that afflict mankind arise from
the corruption that accumulates in the blood. Of all the
discoveries that have been made to purge it out one
have been found which could equal in effect AYER'S
COMPOUND EXTRACT OF SARSAPARILLA. It
cleanses and renovates the blood, instils the vigor of
health into the system, and purges out the humors which
make disease. It stimulates the healthy functions of
the body, and expels the disorders that grow and rankle
in the blood. Its extraordinary virtues are not yet wide
ly known, but when they are, it will no longer be a
question what remedy to employ in the great variety of
anticline diseases that require an alterative remedy.
Such a remedy, that could be relied on, has long been
sought for. and now, for the first time, the public have
one on which they can depend. Our apace here does not
admit certificates to show its effects, but the trial of a
single bottle will show to the sick that it has virtues oar
passing anything they have ever taken. Sufferers from
Screfala. Scrofulone Swellings and Sores, try It and see
the rapidity with which it cures. Skin Diseases, Pim
ples, Postal's, Blotches. Bruntions, &c., are soon
cleaned out of the system.
