meeting of the Franklin Institute wise held last eve
ning. After the usual preliminary businestr, Kr;
"Washington Jones exhibited Messrs. Springer &.
Weaver's improved letter box, recently patented by
J. fI. Springer. Within this box, which in exterior
form resembles the ordinary letter box; two inclined
plates me so arranged in respect to each other, and
the opening for the, admission of the letters, that the
latter are directed to such a position beneath one of
the plates that they cannot be withdrawn by any in
ortrument which could he passed through the opening.
There was also exhibited Mr. E. Lane's patented
improvement in hanging' carriage bodies, which
consists in hanging the body of .the vehicle to the
front and rear axles by means of gum elastic springs
and kVera, the spring of each lever being inde•
pendent of the others, so that in case of one wheel of
the vehicle striking an obstacle it will rise, pass over
it, and resume its former position without disturb.
ing the general equilibrium of the vehicle, or in the
least acting on the other springs, so that the motion
of the carriage body, on traversing uneven roads,
may be of an easy undulating character, and .free
from the disagreeable jolts which result from the
manner heretofore adopted of connecting two or
=ore Otte levers to one spring. 'The full•sized car
riage exhibited was highly finished, and to all ap
pearancea capable of performing all that was claimed
for it.
Mr. Cyrus Ohambers exhibited his improved brick
making machine. The clay is introduced' into a
cylinder, and fed forward to a conical nozzle, having
a screw revolving in it, which screw forces the clay
through a square or oblong opening in the nozzle on
to an endless band, which carries forward the bar of
clay to a revolving knife, the latter cutting it off in
pieces of proper length to form bricks. The clay
being very dry, does not require to be sun-dried, but
may, be " hacked immediately. At about one
third the cost of handmade bricks, this machine
makes 25 to 30 COO bricks per day.
J. W. Nystiom, Esq., exhibited several French
meter measures, and discussed at length the different
systems of measuring, and especially the decimal
system.
Mr. Washington Jones exhibited A. Danforth'S

PRTLADELPRIA TRADE SALE.—The tr€ de
sale of books at the auction room of M. Thomas &
Sons, on Fourth street, was continued yesterday.
The. attendance was very fair, and there was a
marked improvement in the prices obtained. The
.bidding was quite spirited. The sale opened with
the invoice of Messrs. Little, Brown, S. Co., of Boa.
ton, consisting of miscellaneous works. Then fol
lowed the contribution of E. H. Butler & Co., of
Philadelphia. This comprised many valuable works,
and elegantly illustrated works. The invoices of
Wm. J. Weddleton, of New York; arose & Co., of
Philadelphia ; Ohas . Desilver and T. O. H. P. Burn
ham, of Boston, were also sold in the morning. Du
ring the remainder of the day the contributions of
the following firms were sold: Thomas F. Bell,
Philadelphia ; Willis P. Hazard, Philadelphia; W.
A. Townsend, of New York; Sever & Francis, of
Cambridge, Mass.; W. S. & Alfred Mullen, Phila
delphia ; Geo. S. Blanchard, Wm. Rutter, & Co.,
Philadelphia ; T. Elwood Zell Sr, Co., Philadelphia ;
J. Watson, PhiladelphiK; D. Faber, New York;
and Barclay & Co., Philadelphia. The invoice of
Mr. Hazard was quite extensive, covering twelve
pages of the printed catalogue, and comprised the
works. of Shalspeare, Milton, and Byron, and a
great variety of useful, religioue, and tuvenile story
books. A great portion of the sale of the afternoon
consisted of photographic albums, contributed by
the Messrs. Martien, Zell & Co., and Rutter & Co.,
Of this city.
HORTICULTURAL hOCIETY.—The exhibi
tion will be kept open until Friday evening at ten
o'clock. So far, it has been very well attended. It
should be borne in mind that the profits arising from
the exhibition will be appropriated to the United
States Sanitary and Christian Commissions, insti
tutions that have done an incalculable amount of
good during the rebellion. During a good portion of
- last evening the stage was so densely packed with
visitors that but slow progress could be made by
those who joined in the grand rush and crush. Be
tween the magnificent interior of the building, the
showy ornaments of the stage, the splendid display
of plants and flowers, the bright lights, and last, but
not least, the brilliant throng of ladies and their at
tendant beaux, a scene to be remembered was pre
sented.; The display of the society was never -finer
than it is the present season, and visitors are re
minded of the old shows at the Chinese Museum,
when the annual horticultural exhibitions were so
popular. The Academy of Music possesses great
advantages over any other place at which the liorti
oultural Society have held their exhibitions.
GEItMANTISWIi WATER.—The people of
Germantown certainiy deserve the sympathy of the
people of other more favorable parte of Philadel
phia. ,For months past the residents of that histori
cal city within the city have been deprived of good
Water. It is a matter of some doubt whether yob
of old wouJil not rebel, were he subjected to the
painful infliction of being compelled to live at Ger
mantown. The use of the water for drinking pur
poses Is wholly out, of the question, and even for
washing and other purposes it can scarcely be used.
This condition or the water has been a subject for
complaint for a_ long period. Some months since
the matter was taken into court, and for a time
there was some improvement in the water supplied,
but for several months past_the old state of things
has returned, and the water Is daily becoming worse.
It is to be hoped that the Water Company will take
Immediate measures to remedy the evil complained
of. It is expected that when the National Union
party gets into full power in the City Councils, they
will try to effect a long-cherished object of getting
water in its original purity from the Delaware Water
Gap.-.
-PRESENTAV,ON OF A HORN.—On Wed
nesday evening a handsemely•made silver fire horn
was presented to the Warren Hose Oompauy,.by a
committee composed of Messrs. Chambers, Fulaon,
and Proctor, who had selected Alderman D. Beitler
to make the speech of presentation. The Alderman
acquitted himself very well, felicitously alluding to
the affairs of our country, and predicting an honora
ble peace as not very far distant.- Ile was enthusi
astically applauded. The reception speech was made
by Samuel Copeland, Esq, whose remarks were well
timed and patriotic. He was frequently applauded.
After this ceremony thewhole party sat down to a
sumptuous collation, which was enjoyed with peen-
Ear gusto. Many good things were said and done.
The gay and festive scene closed at an miry hour in
the morning.
rItESENTAI.I.OI4 AT A HOSPITAL. —The
Z.rmy Hospital on Ohristian.street.was the scene of
gay festivities on Wednesday evening. The soldiers
there as some testimony of esteem which they en
tertain for Dr. P. Middleton, the Burgeon in charge r
presented him with a handsome sword, sash, belt and
pageants. The speech of presentation was delivered
by Sergeant Major D. H. Pidgeon, who was eloquent
and patriotic. The reply of Dr. Middleton was neat,
modest, and apropos to the occasion. A number of
visitors were present, and they were all delighted
with the happy events of the evening. Dr. Middle
ton was one of the surgeons who was captured by
the rebels during General IlloOlellan's retreat on the
peninsula campaign. He is said to be a kind-hearted
man. He certainly has won the affection of the
soldiers under his care.
THE GOVERNMENT LoArt—The subscrip
tion agent ennounces s the sale of $3413,600 five-twen
ties on Thursday by the various agencies. Delive
ries of bonds are being made to September Bd. The
arrangements for prompt deliveries of bonds are now
completed, and early next week bonds will be de
livered on the third day after the subscriptions are
•received. This will tend largely to increase - the
melee, and bring them up to nearly a million per day.
It cannot be denied that the delays in deliveries
were a serious drawback to the sales, and it is grati
fying to announce that the difficulty is removed.
POLITICAL.—A great meeting was held in
the Twenty-third ward, Trumper'e Woods, yester
day morning and afternoon, under the auspices of
the Ladies , Aid Society. The meeting was most

of Girard College, Hon. Jamea M. Scovel, Rev. Mr.
Bartine,-and others. The deepest interest and en
thusiasm was manifested. Mr. Scovel was invited

THE EFFECT OF THE PRESIDENT'S. PROCLAMATION SUS
PENDING THE PRIVILEGE OF THE WRIT OF HABEAS COR
pro,• ON WRITS PREVIOUSLY ISSUED AND STILL PENDING
—DECISION ON ITS LEGALITY.
The questions raised on Wednesday, as to the effect of
the President's proclamation, suspending the privilege
of the writ of habeas corpus, on the cases of those drafted
men who had previously sued out from the courts writs
of habeas corpus, and which were and are still pending.
came up for argument yesterday, together with the case
ed John Ynnger, reported in yesterday's Press. The
points which were raised on Wednesday are as follows :
1. Has Congress the power to delegate the authority of
suspending the writ of habeas corpus to the President of
the Cnited States, or is not Congress bound, if the Con
stitntion invested it with the right of suspension, to exer
cise that power?
2. If Concerns have the power so to delegate that an
thority,:can they do It far an indellniie eriod of time?-
Is not • during the present rebellion"an indefinite
period ?
-
3. The act of Congress, if valid, authorizes the suspen
sion "of the privilege of the writ of habeas corpus in
any case throughout the United States, whenever, in
his judgment, the public safety msy require it. " This
means that the President shall exercise his judgment in
each individual ease, as it arises, but does not empower
the President to suspend the writ in all cases that may
occur in future, as he does in. his proclamation. He meat
decide in each case.
4. The act of Congrese does not contemplate that the
writs shall be refused by the judges, but, 'oa the con
trary, states in what manner, issued, when the .writs
shall be suspended.
6. The President's proclamation does not embrace par
ties who are applying far the Writ when not drafted, but
claimed as drafted. persons.
The erst question was briefly noticed by blesses. D. -
Dougherty and George M. Conarroe, hat the principal
argument was made by G. Remak, Req., - who represents
Ynuger.
ltemak commenced by stating the general propo
sitionethat in all that are intended to be penal or
which abrogate an existing right of the citizen, theben
- citizen is to be protected. ' It is "the spirit of
our institutions,. OTIr Constitution and laws, that the
citizen who is not charged, nor even suspected. of an
cffence or crime, shall be protected in his rights. The
only provision to be found iu the Constitution of the
United- States having reference to the suspension of the
writ of habeas corpus, is to be found in Article sec
tion 9 and 2: "The privilege of the writ of habeas corpus
shall not be suspended, unless when in cases of rebel
lion or invasion the-public safety may require it:"
I The power to suspend tee writ is with Congress, and it
-alone, as the legislative branch 'of the Government, the
suspension of an existing right being a legislative func
tion. Tnis power would seem to be limited—let, to the
territory of the United States:effected by the rebellion or
invasion; and 2d, to individual cares anywhere in, the
United-States, where patties are charged with offences
directly or indirectly connected with - the rebellion or .
invasion. The power has to be limited as to time, and.
the suspension for an indefinite period is not admissi
ble. Without a special provision contained in the Can.-
etitntie n, the prohibition of the enjoyment nf an exist
ing right must be confined to offenders ye supposed of
fenders. This is in accordance with the genius of our
institutions and the sense of justice of our people. It is
. in consonance witle the preamble of the - Constitution,
which Os framed - "-To establish jetetice—peomote the
general welfare—to secure the Nee - sings of liberty to our=
selves and our posterity." It is In consonance with the
4th section, 4th article. of the Constitution, - which
" guaranties to every State a republican form of go
vernment. If these views be correct it follows—
lit, That an act of Congress suspending the writ
ought to describe the nature of the cases in which the
writ is to be suspended. The act of Congress, of March
3, 13(.3. says " ire any case," and suspends it throughout
the United States or any part thereof. 2. The cases in
which Congress has power under the Constitution, to
suspend the privileges of the writ must be connected
with drenees or charges having reference to the rebel
lion or-invasion,- 3. If Congress have the right (which
is doubted:),'iCCh the power of) - edging whether the pale
lie safety requires the suspension of the writ—can the

2. Officers, soldiers and. seamen described as enrolled,

case does not belong), as enlisted in, or belonging -to,

ant military officer. He is simply Enid set to the con
trol of the enrolling officer on a day certain, not yet
-
arrived _
At the conclusion of Mr. Items:Ws argument Itidge
Cadwalader declined to hear the IJ. S. District Attorney
on the question. saying:"' It appear. to M 9 that the words
' either as' govern all the words until we come to the
words 'or as,' and hence that any person held as' a
soldier, enrolled or dratted. - is—whether rightfully held
or not—within the meaning of the law. There are none
of these people who do not allege that they are held. as
drafted men, and, being so, they are rightfully held.
My present opinion is that the proclamation applies to
-
every man of whom the custody is hold or claimed by
these military officers." As to the point raised as to
whether the suspension of the privilege of the writ of
habeas corpus for the war was for an indefinite period,
and, therefore, illegal. tbe Judge said: The judiciary
"is-competent to deride when the rebellion exists and
when it ceases. * * late all of these Caries:UM
der the fourteenth section. there is no doubt bat that the
proceedings are suspended:" '
In regard to Yneger's case, and another involving al
most the came point, a decision was reserved.
THE POLICE.
[Before Mr. Commissioner Smith.] -
Charge Against a Leather Inspeetor,
Mr. John Dubree was arraigned before Mr. United
States Commissioner A. IH. Smith, 'yesterday evening.
on the charge of malpractice in his official capacity of
leather inspector at the United, tates Arsenal.. From the
evidence of Captain G, Martin, John Eppelsheimer, a
leather currier, and John McManus, a cutter at the'
Arsenal, it seems that Mr. Eppelsheimer. by the consent
of Colonel George If. Crosman, United States Quarter
master, paid a visit to the Arsenal - on September 2d.
There were four sides of leather, leaning against a' desk.
which appeared to be thin, and it was intended they
should be cut into strings. These sides were respectively
marked as containing e the following number of feet Two
19 feet each; one 16;5, and one 16 feet. One-of the 19-feet
sides only measured 1531 feet, the other 16.5 The-163i
feet side measured 191 g feet, and the 16 , feet side
W. feet. The total number of feet. as per markt,
11%. By the measurement made by Mr..BPPelsheimer,
611,1 feet, showing a difference of nine feet. This disco
very being made, the bundle was handed to Cant,' Mar
tin. It was discovered the next-morning that the marks
had been removed. Capt. Martin then pat some tape
around the bundle,-and-sealed..the same. These sides
were produced at the hearing yesterday. It- seems that
Mr. McManus bad his suspicions aroused that the sides
of leather did not contain as many feet as the marks in
dicated. He called the attention of Mr. Bpp_elsheimer to
the fact, and this led to the investigation. .6fr. McManus
said that on one occasion% pieee leather, containing
only_ nine feet, was market 18 feet. The case is still un
der edvisement. Mr.- Ashton appeared on behalf of the
United States and Daniel Dotigherty for the defence.
