~?Thb Union League Brigade.—The 3d
Regiment of the Union League Brigade received its
flag yesterday, and, after receiving refreshments and
their bounty at the Soldiers’ Reading Hoorn, in
Twentieth, street, proceeded to West Philadelpnia
to take the cars for Harrisburg. The regiment is
commanded by Colonel ft. P. McLean, an experi
enced officer, and his stall' and company officers
have generally seen service. It was a subject of re
mark, as the regiment marched through the streets,
what a fine body of men composed it, showing how
ample is the material still in this city for good
soldiers after the tens of thousands who have left
it. It is ceitainly to the credit of the League that
it haß, in so short a time, put three regiments in the
field,'having raised among its members, and through
its influence, the large sum of money necessary for
the purpose. The commanders of the Ist, 2d, and 3d
Regiments are, respectively, Lieutenant Colonel
Wm. D. Whipple, of the regular army; Colonel
Wm. A. Gray, of the volunteers,/and Colonel G. P.
McLean, of the volunteers. ;
.. Depasture of Troops—Y esterday
morning the 3d regiment raised under the auspices
of the Union League, left their.'camp and paraded
through the city, accompanied byßirgfeld’s Brigade
Band. The men were all uniformed and armed, and
marched exceedingly well. In froht of the League
House, the regimentwas halted and received a beau
tiful stand of colors, a gift from the members of the
League. Accompanying the regiment was the Dana
Troop, which is also attached to the brigade. The
men were uniformed like the Anderson Cavalry, and
were armed with carbines, but were not mounted.
Both organizations left for Harrisburg. Company
H, of the 2d Corn Exchange Regiment, Captain Jaa.
O’Dougherty, commanding, left for Harrisburg on
Monday evening. The company numbered 100 men,

attacked several persons, injuring them severely.
On Second street he rushed on a man and inflicted
serious injuries. At Fifth and Chatham Btreeis a
German woman was struck in the left side and was
tossed about three feet into the air. She fell upon
her head and was considerably bruised. A lad named
Thomas Kelly, twelve years of age, was attacked on
Little Poplar street, near Sixth. He was struck in
the abdomen, but fortunately the horn of the ani
mal did not enter" the body. The skin was torn all
the way up to the chin, however. The boy made a
very narrow escape. As far as could be ascertained,
no further damage was done by the infuriated beast.
• Runaway • and Narrow Escape.—A
Jady and gentleman were driving up Brown street
on Monday afternoon, and they had nearly got upon
the track of the Germantown railroad, when a train
came down Ninth street. The horse took fright at
the locomotive, and turning about dashed down
Brown’street. The wagon was overturned, and the
occupants were thrown from it without receiving
any serious injury. The frightened animal, with
the overturned, carriage hanging to his heels, ran
down Brown street to Fourth, before hia course was
arrested. The wagon was literally broken to pieces,
and the horse sustained serious injuries in his efforts
to rid himself of the wreck. The incident caused
much excitement, as it was feared that persons in
the street would be caught in the wreck of the car
riage which the frightened horse was whirling along
with frightful speed.

THE POLICE,
THE GREAT CONS PIRACY CASE
Further and Interesting Particulars.
THE TREASON PLOTTERS UNEASY.
The United States Grand Jury room was filled to
almost : suffocation, yesterday morning, on the occa
sion of the resumption of the investigation of the
case of O’Neal/ Benedict, and Moore.' The pro
ceedings were to have commenced at ten o’clock,
but District Attorney Coffey not making his ap
pearance until nearly eleven, all this time was lost.
The case will be resumed at ten o’clock this morn'
sharp time.. The following additional evidence
was elicited yesterday: -
Lewis J. Sherman, reoalled.—ln regard tothe con
versation, on the Bth instant, in relation to the cap
tore of the United States transports for Washing
ton. and the project for fitting out the sahooner
Lady’s Delight as a privateer, I asked Benedict what
he intended to do with the transports that might be
captured ; O’Neal ppoke up, and said that if it was
convenient, the transports could be taken ashore—if
not, then they could be sunk; Tasked hlm.whatwas
to be done with the crews; he replied: “ Sink them
too, or take them to Richmond, if possible, or to
some other convenient place; the masts of the
transports could be cut away, the hulls sunk, or we
could do any other thing to destroy the d—d vessels.”
, Question, Did he mention particularly what ves
sels! * .
Answer. Those going to Washington, District of
Columbia; it was also Baid that if'we captured a
vessel more suitable than the Lady’s Delight, we
could destroy her and take the better one, then pro
ceed to the Delaware Breakwater, and sink such
merchant veßßels as might be there; all this could
be done on some favorable night; Captain Benedict
said he did not oare what became of him; all he
wanted was to show the Confederate Government
that he was a good Southern* man ; all he wanted
was to build up his reputation; this is about all I
recollect.
The witness underwent a long and tiresome cross
examination, but there was nothing elicited calcu
lated in the least to impair his voluminous .testi
mony in chief. In answer to question proposed by
Mr. Vandyke, the counsel for the defence, the wit
ness replied: I made no proposition to the parties
to fit out a privateer; I did not make any proposi
tion to purchase a steamer as a privateer, because I
had a rich uncle who would supply the funds ; I did
say that I had a rich uncle named John Dobson,
who lived in ‘Wilmington, North Carolina; I do
Bay, under the oath that I have taken, that I
never made any proposition at any time to fit
out a privateer, the proposition, came from the
parties; all the proposition I made to them was to
take my goods; of course my business was to detect
the parties, and I adopted the most effectual way to
doit; five boxes were sent to me from Philadelphia
by my brother. Wm, H. Sherman; can’t Bay that
I know exactly what line brought the goods;
they came to Jersey City;. I ,was to purchase
the Lady’s Delight at a mock sale for $2,500 ;
the schooner Lady’s Delight is now lying at anchor
off Jersey City; have Been vessels like her fitted
out as privateers; the parties were arrested on the
order of the War Department; the letters of the
rebel mail were handed to District Attorney Coffey
before the arrests were made; in consequenceof the
important papers haying been brought to Philadel
phia, it-was thought proper to bring the prisoners
here: Idid not,arrest the prisoners: Mr. Moore told
me that he had a vessel captured, which at the
proper time will be proven.
The District Attorney now offered in evidence cer
tain letters found in the possession of Mrs. Moore.
They were written from Capt. Benedict to Moore on
the subject of purchasing vessels. These letters do
not possesH sufficient interest for publication. There
are rebel letters that will be offered in evidence.
One of these is from Mir. Andrews, of Virginia, who
urged on the rioters in New York. The publication
of all the important letters in. the mailjwould be gra
tifying to every loyal person in thiß community. An
effort will be made to-day to read them in public.
Mr. Vandyke will resist the offer.
[Before Mr. Alderman Ogle. ]
Further Items of Burglaries*
Aaron Hilt alias Joneb, Joseph Hilt, and Joseph
Monk, the three lads arrested a few days since by
Officer Rice on the [charge of attempted house
breaking, in the vicinity of Locust and Eighth
streets, came up for a final hearing yesterday after
noon. Since the first hearing the detectives had
succeeded in recovering a considerable quantity of
stolen goods. The following places, according to
the confession of-the parties, were robbed:
On the 25th. of June, the dwelling of W. O. Logan,
Nbi 535 Norib Nineteenth street, of clothing, to the
yjiue f-:»~ * • __ ——■ —
On -the 30th of June, the dwelling o£ ftfabtoo. 5.
Leideneetter, No. £-13 North TwelUh street, 6f cloth
ing, valued at. $BO.
On June 27th, the store and dwelling oF Solomon
K. EJkin, No. 1037 Callewhill street, of gold chain
and earrings, and from $4O to $5O in money. At
this place,-the fire-proof safe was blown open by
means of gunpowder.
On the first of July the dwelling of J. M. Me
garge, No. 656 North Eleventh street, waß robbed of
coats, pants, and other clothing, to the value of
$l5O. A couple of revolvers, powder flask, and an
opera glass, were also stolen.,
The prisoners were committed, in default of $3,000
bail each, to answer at the next term of the court.
We are informed that Aaron Hilt, alias J. Jones,
is between .eighteen and nineteen years of age, and
a deserterfrom the. army. The police have been in
formed that he is so utterly worthless that the mi
litary authorities will have nothing to do with him.
He never was in a battle, but always skulked when
an engagement was about to come on. Thieve v sin
the army generally skulk, like cowards, and finally
desert; at least this opinion is entertained by the
authorities.

AYER'S COMPOUND EXTRACT
SARSAPARILLA.—No one remedy is more needed
in this country than a reliable Alterative, but the sick
have been so outrageously cheated by the worthless pre
parations of Sarsaparilla abroad that they are disgusted
even wiurthe name. Yet the drug cannot he blamed for
the impositions from which they have suffer* d. Most of
the so-called Sarsaparillas lu the market contain little
of the virtues of Sarsaparilla or anything else. They
are mere slops—inert and worthless, while a concen
trated extract of the active variety of Sarsaparilla com
pounded with Dock, Stillingia,lodine, etc., is, as it ever
will be, apowerful alterative. and an effectual remedy.
Such is Ayer’s Extract of Sarsaparilla, as its truly won
derful cures of the great variety of complaints whtcb re
quire an .alterative medicine have abundantly shown.
'Do not, therefore, discard this invaluable medicine, be
cause you have been imposed upon by something pre
tending to be Sarsaparilla, while it was not. When yon
have used.Ayer’s—then, and nottill then, will you know
the virtues of Sarsaparilla. For minute particulars of
the diseases it cures, we refer you to Ayer’s American
Almanac,' which the agent below named will furnish
gratis to all wbo call for it.
AYER’S CATHARTIC PILLS, for the cure of Costive
ness* Jaundice, Dyspepsia* Indigestion, Dysentery.
Foul Stomach, Headache, Files, Rheumatism Heart
burn arising from Disordered Stomach, Pain , or
Morbid Inaction of the Bowels, Flatulency, Loss of
Appetite* Liver Complaint* Dropsy, Worms, GFout,
Neuralgia, and for a Dinner Pill. .
They are sugar-coated, so that the most sensitive can
take them- pleasantly, and they are the best Aperient in
the world for all the purposes of a family physic. Price
26 cents per box; five boxes for $l..
Do not be put off by unprincipled dealers with other
preparations which they make more profit on. Demand
AYER’S, and take no others. The sick want the best aid
there is for them, and they should have it.

M. C. Sadler, Esq., Agent for Lillie's Safes:
Dear Sir : During the night of May 19, 1863, our Gro
cery and Provision Store, at North Second and Willow
streets, took fire at about 2 o’clock A M., and as tua
store was a two-story wood building it bomt rapidly,
and before the fire- engines could act upon the fire, our
whole stock of goods; including much combustible ma
terial* and amounting to over $2,000, were wholly de
stroyed. -We had one of your No. 11 Chilled Iron Same,
which was in the hottest part of the fire, and.it came out
of the fire not in the least injured, except the melting on
of the name', plate and paint. The contents inside were,
not affected in-the least, and we consider the Safe just a»
good a protection against fire now as before, and. shell
use it hereafter wuh increased confidence. The lock

I would say to all parties who want a Fire and
Burglar-proof- Safe that LILLIE’S WROUGHT AND
CHIXLEI) nr>N SAFES are much the cheapest and the
only real Fire and Burglar-proof Safes now made; and
to those who want simply a Fire-proof, I would say that,
LILLIE’S WROUGHT JEON SAFE is fully, eaual in-all
respects to any of the most-approved makers, ana m
