in batrylkill, Northumberland, and Uolumbia coun
ties, made by consplainant to defendants in the year

Court of Oyer and Terminer anti Quarter
Sessions—Judge Thompson.
David R. Porter, conductor on the Tenth and
Eleventh•streets Passenger Railway was put, on
trial yesterday, charged with having committed an
assault and battery on a Mr. Reifstein, a passenger.
From the evidence for the prosecution, it appeared
that Reifstein had a trunk on the front platform
where he was standing and the defendant demanded
live cents for carrying it, when Reifstein told him he
had not any more money than the five cents he had
paid for his own passage. The defendant then, it is
alleged, struck him several violent blows in the face,
threw him off the car, and threw the trunk after
him. On the other hand, the defence showed that
when the defendant demanded pay for the trunk
Reifatein refused, and on having his five cents
handed back, and being ordered to get off, raised a
hammer he held in his hand in a threatening man
ner, and said he would Iry him with that. The jury
were unable to agree upon a verdict, and were dis
charged.
John Walker was put on trial charged with hav
ing committed an assault and battery on a German
by knocking him down, and also with larceny, for
having, as is alleged, stolen his watch. From the
evidence it appears that the defendant, in company
with some other., did attack and knock down the
Herman, and that at the same time, it is alleged,
some one of the party stole his watah. One witness
testified that she saw the defendant grab at the
watch after the man had been 'knocked down. The
defence did not deny the assault and battery, butilid
deny having stolen the watch. Jury out.

CHel.re Mr. U. B. Commissioner A. H. Smith.]
Charge of Evading the Income Tax.
A case of considerable interest came up yesterday
afternoon, for a preliminary investigation, before
Commissioner Smith. It is the first one of the kind
to which the attention of the authorities hes been
called. Joseph Detwiler, a farmer, of Salem town
ship, Yotk county, Pennsylvania, was arraigned on
the charge of evading the payment of the national
income tax. Mr. J. Y. A.stiton appeared on behalf
of the United States Government and T. P. O'Neill
for the defence. The hearing progressed as follows :
Edward C. Eply, assistant assessor of the Fifth
division of the Fifteenth district of Pennsylvania,
was callen to the stand. He testified that he handed
a blank form to Mr. Detwiler to be filled up by him'
this was in the latter part of May, 1862; when I
handed him the form, I requested him to make a
statement of his income for the year 1882, from
January Ito December 31, inclusive ; I showed
him - thee first page of the form, and told him
that the gross amount of income must be stated ; I
then read all the items carefully, and stated to hint
as plainly as I could the meaning of them; I turned
the paper and showed him the right hand columns
for credits, that he was entitled to ; that each ore
dit should be placed opposite the item as specified ;
then I closed the paper and showed him the certifi
cate on the back thereof, where he could see the
date of 1862 in case he did not remember it; I told
him to be very accurate in making the statement, as
it would have to be sworn to by him; he then left
and returned me the paper on tee first of June fol
lowing when he returned thepaper I read oft' each
item ; he returned $ 1,500 as interest, on bonds and
mortgages, and other securities not of the United
States; he returned that he had no interest in
stocks, banks, or railroad corporations, he had
only a little turnpike stock ; I then entered
the amount myself; to the item number 11,
he returned, farms and profits, $ 1,000 ; to the other
items he replied, Nothing; I then turned to the
credit side, and I entered $6OO as exempt ; local
taxes, $134 ; the next item was marked $166 ; I got
down to the item hired labor—tne whole amount re
turned by him as subject to the three per cent. tax
was $1,388; he said it was all right; I called his
especial .attention to it; his amount of tax to pay
was $94 64 ; he said he had no bank stock, orany
other, except a little turnpike stock.
Cross-examined —I think the defendant owns
three farms; I have known him since 1845; handed
him the blank form at a hotel in Wrightsville; I en
lured some of the credite for him as he had not en
tered them himself; the defendant is somewhat
deficient in hearing; his arrest was on a warrant
issued on my affidavit; I was ordered by the sues.
sor of York to come to Philadelphia to make the
charge ; there was a aeareh made for bonds and
mortgages in Lancaster county courts ; I did this in
order to obtain revenue due the United States; I
knew that he bad money at interest, but gild not
know how much or what kind; I am sure I asked
him all about the items separately.
At this stage of the proceedings the Commissioner
desired to know what the counsel for the defence
wanted to come at by this course of cross-exami•
nation.
Mr. O'Neili replied, to show malicious promo,
tion.
Mr. Ashton rejoined, the United States prosecute
'and not the witness. •
Mr. O'Neill. Well, I wish to show that the re
turn was made for 1863, and that my client has made
a mistake. When was the return made'?
Witness. On or about the Ist of June the return
was made to me; the reason why the proceeding
against Mr. Detwiler was not commenced at once
was because I had to come to Philadelphia, and
some time elapsed in getting ready ; I came to Phila
delphia on July 23d, and made my affidavit ; I can
assure you that I was sent here by the assessor.
Edwin B. Brown sworn, I reside at Lancaster ;

on June 14th ; he drew the November dividend on
58117 of November; the' whole amount he drew in
the year 1862, was $l4l 50.

There were a number of other witnesses to be ex•
amined, but not being present, i\lr. Ashton desired a
postponement.
Mr. O'Neill contended that there was nothing in
all the evidence to hold his client, and asked for his

for the purposes of this hearing, to admit the follow

Mr. O'Ntill, counsel for defence, having admitted

Committed by the Coroner
Lawrence Carroll was committed yesterday by
the coroner to answer the charge of killing Anthony
McKinney, on Long lane, in the First ward, on
Wednesday. At the inquest held upon the body, it
was testified that Carroll, who was driving a horse
and cart, was racing with another man. McKinney
was knocked down by Carroll's cart, rue over, and
died in a short time after. Neither of the drivers
stopped to ascertain the amount of injury inflicted
upon McKinney. The defence will probably set up
that the horse was unmanageaole.

MEDICAL.
A VERY IMPORTANT SCIENTIFIC
QUESTION, TO BB ANSWhRED BY MEDICAL
MEN OF ALL THE PATHIEB IN THIS CITY.
Shall we any longer continue in the practice of Allo-
Path'', Homeopathy, or any etberpathy whioh has ever
proved en uncertain in its reliable curative effects. while
in our vary midst we have daily and hourly the most
incontrovertlinedertionetrations of the success of PEW F.
BuLLES. 1220 WALNUT Street, in his discovery of
the aprlicatien of GALVANISM, MAGNETISM, and
other modification's of ELEC.CEICITY, for the speedy
and reliable cure of nearly all ace te and chronic dis
eases which have bid defiance to all medical skill?
If any medical man has soy doubts as to his duty
in this important answer. we would invite him before
be makes application to. Prof. BOLTAS for private
lectures and inetructions, to read carefully the fol
lowing complimentary resolutions and extract. of totters
from medical men who have been instructed by Prof.
8., and also bear in mind that Prof. B. has sixty
different complimentary tokens, and has qualified near
ly one thousand medical men of all of the different
schools VIM now use Electricity se a specialty. and that
In no other system is there union of thought and
practice.
COMPLIMENTARY RRSOLUTION3
At the close of a Coarse of Lectures, delivered to as.
members of One Of the many Classes of Prof C. H.
BOLLES, who has been developing his discovery for
nearly four years, at IMO WALNUT Streat, to the City
of I. hfladelphia, In the application of GALVANISM,
MAGNETISM, and other modifications of EL IsCTEN.)I
TY, the following rem:lotions were unanimously passed
Resolved. That, as we have been eyewitnesses for
many weeks In the Institution of Professor Bolles, and
have good reason to believe that he ha• discovered new
principles in the application of the different modifica
tions of Electricity to the various diseased conditions of
the human system and that, in the treatment of dif
ferent diseases, we have been convinced that, in his
hand. as also his Students, the application of Electricity
is a reliable therapeutic : and that he has taught us a
new, rational, and scientific Philosophy, and we be
lieve the only reliable theory of.disease and mode of
cure
Resolved. That, in our judgment, the philosophy ad
vanced, and so clearly demon,tratril in the Course of
Lectures, is entirely new and original with Professor
Bolles. and not known to the Medical Profession, and
that the great success which has attended his practice
in this city is alone the result of his scientific discovery.
of Electrical laws i itherto unknown to man, and that
the many !allures of other men in this city using this
mighty atent is their ignorance of the true principles of
Electricity.
Resolve:ft, That we,-in duty to suffering humanity, and
for the great progress of the human race in aPProgi
meting to a condition of health and happine.e, commend
the Pr, lessor and his theory and practice to the public,
and bid him God-speed, as we believe his great mission
is one of benevolence and mercy, and calculated to
benefit humr nity in the only scientific and ralianlo way
to a final restoration of health and physical happiness,
Resolved. That we tender to Prof. Bolles our thanks
for hie lucid instruction and kind, attention to us. indi
vidually and as a class; that he has redeemed every
pier ge or assurance Made by him. and that: in parting
OM him helms our beat wishes for hie happiness and
prorperity, and we heartily commend him to all scien
tific investigators, and also to the diseased of body or
mind.
Also, Resolved, Thai the proceedings of this meeting
be signed by each member of the class. and published
in the city papers.
By order of the Class.

Profewor Bolles:
Dean Sin: As you have frequently requested me
to give you my opinion of the therapeutic effects of elec
tricity. when applied according to yoar di- covery
of its physiological relation , . to the human system, in
Producing and curing disease; and this being the first
favorable opportunity. I will give you a brief statement
of my success since I closed Inv instruction with yon,
and also my faith in it as a remedial agent for the cure of
ail curable diseases. At every step as I have proceeded
in the practice, my astonishment has — been increased
when witnessing its power in controlling and curing all
forms of disease. I can hardly say what class of diseases
electricity is best adapted to—but think it adapted to all;
but its power is complete over Consumption. Rheumt
tine—acute or chronic—tieuralgia,.Broncbitie, Catarrh,
Asthma, Amanrosis, Erysipqas, St. yitus' Dance. all fa
mes diseases, and all derangements of the ner sone sys
tem. The above diseases having been treated by me
since I toot in, traction from you, as also many others,
therefore I speak positive of its powers to control, with
out any medicine heir g - given acccording to Allopathy
or Homeopathy, cures ten to one of all that other system
claim to cure Yon have a knowledge of many astonish
ing cures performed by me Mace I took Instruction of
you, and when I find time I will give you some more ac
count of my doings. S me people in Mt. Morris rejoice
that I broke away from ray old system, and took in
struction from you. Dr. Themes, Miss Bun, Mr. Magee.
and some others, entirely hopeless ca• es, especially feel
as though it was to them as life from the dead. I feel
strong in the faith of Electropathy, and have entered.
the field of labor with unbounded SIICCEIFIL and can say,
With one of old. "the harvest is truly great. andJabor
e s are ft w." With the highest regard. I remain your
friend, W. It, WELLS. AL -D..
The opinions of medical men, after having been in
structed by Prof. BOLLES, 1220 WALNUT Street, Phila
delphia, in the application of Electricity:
I think my faith fully comprehends the fact that Elec
tricity, correctly applied, according to your discovery,
is abundantly competent to core all curable diseases.
My experience and success, after exten.ive practice,
fully warrant this assertion. Were I sick with a fatal
disease, I would far sooner trust my life in the hands of
a skilful Electrician than all the " patbies " on earth
besides. W. R. WELLS, M. D.
BLFLLO, N. Y
For the lest pine months I have made Electricity a
specially, and my faith is daily increming in its thera
peutic Effects, and I believe, when applied according to
your discovery, it will cure all curable diseases, ain mg
whi:h are numerous cases never benefited by medicine.
BUFFALO, N. Y. P. W. IitANSPIELTI, M. D.
I would recommend my brethren in the medical pro
fession to avail themselves of an opportunity o' be
coming acquainted with Prof Bolles new method of
applying },lectricity. which I think is not ktown to
medical men, except those who have availed themselves
of his instruction, for T am very confident that mach in
jury must be the result of a wrong. unskilful applica
tinn of so powerful an agent. AMOS GREY, M. D.
.DETROIT, Michigan.
What I have now to say is from actual observa'ion, as
I have spent moot of- my time for the last two mouths
with Prof. Bolles. and have witnessed the effects of the
Electrical agent on from fifteen to twenty-five patients
a day. suffering from almost every form of chronic dis
ease: and, as strange as it may appear in a majority of
cases, a perfect cure was effected In from five to fifteen
days. And I will here remark that most of his patients
were afflicted with longs ending compiainte, consider
ed incurable by all other known remedies.
, H. El. KIRBY, M. D.
I believe electricity to be a relia ' therapeutic agent,
and feel It my duty to recommend itrl Since I have _
re
ceived instruction from you I have apftltsd it in cases o
Ap b ony, Bronchitis, Chorea; Amenorrimea, Asthma,
and Congestion, and find that I have the same success
that you had when 1 was under your`inatruction. I in
variably recemmend medical men to avail themselves
of an oprortunity of becoming scquainted with your
new method of applying Electricity.- - -

PROF. POLLEE A great revolution in my mind and
practice has taken place since I became acquainted with
your new discovery of applying Galvanism, Magnetism,
and other modifications of Electricity, as a - curative
agent. I havefonnd. by manv'.experiments, that Elec
tricity is a safe therapeutic agent in all acute and chro
nic cases, when applied according to your discovery. I
desire that medical men should become conversant with
y our discovers% MARVIN GODDARD, lT D.
CLEVELAND, Ohio.
ROCHESTER. N. Y. Sept. 10. 1859.
PROF. BOLLES—Dear Sir: The more I investigate this
system of practice. the more confident I am that it is all
powerful to meet the ten thousand diseases to which
flesh is heir.
You, who Bret discovered Electricity to be a reliable
therapeutic agent, should be considered a great benefac
tor of the race, for it is the only reliable system of cure
for the woes and ills of suffering humanity. It is strange
that physicians have become so wedded to their several
systems. brought up from the darkness of past ages. that
they will close their eyes against the light now beaming
forth through this system of practice All other systems
I regard as the morning star to the rising sun.
P. SHEDD, D.
Prof. Rolleg: ' -
The nearer I conform - to your system of.application,
the more successful I Amend as I have exannmed all the
guides and works published upon the subject and seen
nothing in reference to your theory, I do not hesitate to
say I believe it to be original with you, and the only re
liable s 3 stem extant for curing disease.
