'rate the anniversary of the Penn Freedmen's Bode* The platform was tilled by prominent clergymen of the city, and Rt; Rev. Bishop Boiler occupied the chair.. On being called to preside, the Bishop was received with,great applause, and then proceeded to •deliver an address: • He alluded to the large inoiense . of the freedmen of the South. From Fortress Monroe to Florida the blaoks had been loosened, and now appeal to the benevolent for aid, sympathy, and support. As a race they have been put to the trial, and he had no hesitation in saying that they had borne them. , selves well in the trial. [Applause.] You hear of no outrages or violence. On the contrary, you find them orderly and docile. On the held of battle they exhibit some of the highest quali ties of the soldier. All honor to that race which have shown their appreciation of their posi tion,, and their determination to embrace the advantages Which the new situations have openbd upl All honor to the men of the North who have given credit to those men for their devotion, energy, and self sustaining power! The Bishop read a letter from Admiral Dupont, in reference to the conduct of the blacks at Port Royal, in which it was stated that the blacks bad borne themselves well, and were obedient, laborious, and self-sustaining. The object of the present meeting in aid of the suttbring ne groea would be further stated by the speakers who 0 would follow. Rev. Mr. Fiske, chaplain of the contraband camp at Memphis, Tenn., was introduced. flow well it became an enlightened community, he said, to listen at times to the prayer of the humble and lowly. Re would make bold, now to speak a word for the Moat unfortunate people of the world. Our coun trymen have proved their spirit. No man shall say henceforth that the patriotism of the ancient days has cite out. What is it that !Ise taken away from Sour ccuuting-houses so many of the noblest of our south t How is it that fathers have left their well beloved familita to take up arms in defence of their count' y Their hearts were burning with hatred against a greet wrong. We have poured out our millions, and sent forward to tee battle-field thousands of the bravest of the land. It ie not wonderful that every thieg connected with this groat war should in terest every loyal man. Nothing is more interest lig in connection with the new idess which this war produced than the abolition of the prejudices against the blacks. These men had always been, our friends. They acted as guides and scouts, and begged to be received into our lines as servants 'or soldiers, and were refitted. Three-fourths of the freedmen, who are now a burden upon use would have been useful to us had we adopted towards them a rational, true policy. There are now no less than 35,000 freed-blacks on the Mississippi receiving support from the Government. They have, as far as possible, been organized for la bor and usefulness. He had some hard things to say against many of our army officers. But, amidst them all, the modest hero of Vicksburg stands spot less. He overcame all the prejudices of his polities and manhood. This patriot hero had done nothing which might be considered as in -opposition to the amelioration of the defence less blacks. Last December General Grant's army was in front of Grenada. Orders had been re ceived to break up camp suddenly. The orders came to hand one night of fearful storm. There was in One regiment a poor but useful negro boy, who could not .march off because of sickness. He lay on the ground, and presented in the pitiless - storm an of-- testing spectacle. The surgeon of the regiment re fused to place the negro in an ambulance. He " did not come out here to tend Lifters," was his brutal excuse. Other surgeons and other officers re-echoed this horrid sentiment. The poor boy was left to die, and no one who had authority deigned to give him relief. -It was not thought how valu able had been the service of the brave boy, when lie was physically able to perform the duties of the camp. His story is the story of a thousand other unfortunates which the war has thrown upon the mercy of our armies. The advance of our army is the beacon light of the enslaved. The blacks rejoice that the opportunity has come for deserting "masers." When the blue coats ap pear, "mane has gone and dared out." What becomes of the poor blacks) Our army must sub slat upon what they find growing around them. The slaveholder leaves the comfier(' and hie slaved; our army eats the corn. What ehell the slaves eat? No wonder that they hang on to the skirts of our. army. He spoke the truth when he said that no less than 1200 blacks died at Memphis for want of care, food_and fuel. Often were the contraband camps M at emphis without wood either to cook meals, or to keep warmth in the body. For three months, three fourths of the men in the camp had but one suit of clothing. The women andr children were al. most naked. It was a wonder, not that 1200 diecl, but that so many lived: The negroes have been robbed of everything valuable that they had in their possession. The prejudice of the North against the blacks was fully exemplified in our armies. Frequently have the soldiers shot and robbed the blacks of the camp. Once a party of soldiers discharged shots into the camp, mortally wounding a little baby, who soon afterwards died in the arms of its mother. A burial party had been attacked and fired upon, by a squad of soldiers uuder a commissioned officer. The guilt of the blacks was their being comrades of the camp. Often did officers and soldiers say they would like to see the "nigger army thrown into the Mississip pi." Happily, the prejueicee of the army against the negro are fast disappearing, and now the negro was much safer in the hands of our patriot army than in the enlightened cities of New York, Buffalo, and Chicago. [Applause.] In nothing was the speak. er more firmly convinced than in this, that never will thorough victory bless our arms till this unholy prejudice is forever rooted out. As to what shall be done with the negro, he could an swer that question the better by negatives. He could show what the negro will not do. He will not COMM to the .North, much as Illinois, Indiana, and Ohio may desire him. One thing cannot be done. The freedman roan never be again enslaved, simply lecause he don't wish to. He has beeome amis. tomea to the circumstances of war. He has learned the value of arms, and that knowledge incapacitates him for slavery.,'[Applause:] When the rebels commenced this war, they set free the Southern slaves. The institution is dead. The proclamation is but a rolling stone over the sepulchre. There ie no Ohiist in heaven, and no anti-christ on earth who can bid slavery come back. [applause.] In con clusion, be appealed to the benevolence of his hear ers to listen to the cry of the distressed coming up frcm the poor and desolate of the women, children, and helpless of the contraband camps. _ Dlr. Miller McKim followed in an earnest speech, and 'was received with much enthusiasm. After which he read the followingreeolutions, which were adopted: Whereas. We have heard with deep and painful in- • toast the recitals which have been roads to ns of the condition of the freed blacks in Tennessee, on the banks of the Mississippi, and elaswhere; and whereas, the destitution thus disclosed is of the inset pressing exi s which admit of no postponement; rn i Li c mkwhereas;ciit appeals be plainly unreasonable to de mand of the Government—with a colossal war on its hands, and difficulties to contend with of unprecedented magnitude—that it should assume the entire harden of the support and management of this hapless people: thr refer e. Resolved, That all citizens of the United States. and especially the loyal and humane of the North. owe a duty to the freed blacks of the South in their present die item, which demands immediate practical acknowledg. Rev sited, That the necessities of these people, being inevitably incident to their transition from slavery to freedom, and the result of circumstances for which they are in nowise responsible, ought to be, and must fie, provided for by those on whom, by their own assump tion, thls responsibility re: ht. Resolved, That the extent and probable duration of the' slate of things which now makes its appeal toms, forbid the idea of meeting it by any mere local. extemporane oue, or 'impulsive (effort; but that, on the contrary. they demand that It should be provided for by a well digested and carefully organized system of general ope rations; and that we recommend that immediate steps be taken by parties interested in the subject in this city, to put on Lot a plan of concerted raction, the scope of Which shall be coextensive witn the country, and the re sults a proper provision for the necessities, mental, mo ral. and physical, of all who may justly claim its bens -ills. Risoheel, That in the meantime the people of Phila delphia and of the state of Pennsylvania should come forward 'with their accustomed liberality to meet the present exigency, and ihit,beeldee contributions in cloth ing to eupply the demand now made upon them, a sum not lens than $50,000 shouLd be raised for the purpose of carrying out the object of this meeting Rev. Phillips Brooks then made an address, and the meeting adjourned. HORTICULTURAL 6ocrurx.--The regular monthly meeting of the. Horticultural Society was hem last evening at the Hall, corner of Broad and. Walnut streets, President Mitchell in the chair. An essay on "Ornamental planting of trees and shrubs" was then read by Thomas Meehan, and a supplement ary one on the same subject by Mr. Walter Elder, from which the following is an extract: "Ornamental planting of trees and shrubs has a fourfold purpose to fulfil—namely, seclusion, shelter, shade, and adornment. Too many small places are rendered ridiculous by miniature-landscape garden ing; too many short, little crooked walks, remind one of the offsets in a theatre, where the play actors suddenly disappear and soon reappear at another place. Winding walks are only beautiful when they shape the grounds into handsome figures, or when they lean to objects to which straight walks would disfigure the forms of the ground. Single shrubs of fine forms, if properly placed, are ornaments upon small grounds, but they would be so diminutive upon extensive grounds as to destroy the harmo ny of greatness, unless they were platted in small figures, formed out of a back part of the ground. Ornamental planting of trees and shrubs lies more in the proper arrangement than in the in dividual beauty of the plants. There should be what is oalled a shrubbery ; all the shrubs should be in groups of neat forms, shaped by walks, the tallest farthest off'the walks, and all set at such distances apart, that when they have attained their full sizes they will not overshade each other, nor their branches mix, but space enough between them for the gardner to walk freely among them to prune, hoe, and rake. Whether - shrubs are grown in border, groups, or hedges, they should stand a good distance from trees, and the space that intervenes be, %%seri ',Wald be an open and green lawn. Trie shade and shelter of trees upon a place will make the temperature ten degrees more comfortable both in simmer and winter. Trees shutting the out-buildings from eight are ornamental because they hide what we do not want to be seen. Grounds are more or namented by being divided into different compart ments by trees and shrubs. Wide, open glades should be .left,'and slew very- handsome trees may be widely set in these glades. The practice of plant ing trees at random over the lawn, as the stars are set in the firmament, is anything but ornamental, or of fine „taste. Every tree and shrub, when planted, should bespeak a plan, or part of a plan, to tell why it wax set there, and the whole should the marks of a contemplated design, and the beauties of Nature will thereby shine in all their fullness and grandeur. ' A. short discussion between the members on the above essay then ensued, after which the meeting adjourned." HOUSE OF THE GOOD. SHEPHERD.--FOr .many years the Sisters of this religious and chari table Order have devoted themselves to the Christian task of endeavoring to give a home and chance of permanent reformation to penitent• females who, having deviated from the paths of virtue, may de sire to change their awful and terrible mode of life. The Sisters of the Good Shepherd act on the broad di:7atholic principle of Christianity, and extend their ;helping hands and open their charitable hearts to all whe need their aid, without making the prefer -004 of anypartioular religious belief a sine Tel non. In their house (Twenty•sesond, between Walnut and Stumm etreetu), there are now, besides two • magdalene, who probably remain there, 195 unfortunate but repentant females in one . department—in some cases as young as twelve years old. The means of supporting them are derived from the labor of the inmates, and the benevolence of the public. The Lady Managers include persons of various religious denominations—for benevolence is not sectarian. On the 16th of this month there will be a Fair at Concert Hall, for the purpose of providing additional buildings for the House of the • efood Shepherd, and several ladies of the" first re speotability have already undertaken to preside at stalls fer this purpose. No reformatory institution in the city can have a higher atm, and It ill to be hoped that the public will cheerfully and liberally .soknowledge its moral claims. TSB Ladies of the "Penn Relief Asso ciAtion" propose sending stores of clothing and deli cacies to the Naval Academy anti St. Sohn Hos ,pitalc at Annapolis, for the returned Richmond p* soners, reported in the papers of Seventh•day (Saturday), as being in a destitute and starving , con dition.. Feeling an extra effort should be made in such extreme cases of suffering, they will thankfully receive any donations sent to the rooms of the also elation, northeast corner Broad and Spring Garden -streets. A hope is indulged that the public will re npond at once to tee patriotic endeavors of the BRAKEMAN INJURED.—Williatn.

Bomeisler, of. Olympia Club RAILWAY MATTERS. —The report publish ed in some of the papers, that J. Edgar Thomson, President of the Pennsylvania Railroad had ac cepted the presidency of a road in Russia, is untrue. Mr. Thomson is so identified with Pennsylvania railway interests that he could not be spared at pre sent, no matter how anxious foreign Governments may be to have the benefit of his services and vast experience. The report arose from his visiting New York to attend the nuptial reception ot a niece of Col. Thomas A. Scott, and confounding his name with that of a distinguished Baltimore engineer of the name of Thompson, who has accepted the ap pointment tendered by the Russian authorities. Our Pennsylvania road president is Thomson by name, without the p. George 0. Frandsen', Esq., the indefatigable divi sion superintendent of the eastern end of the Penn sylvania road, has been absent at Altoona, on busi ness sonnected with the road, for several days, but is expected home to-day. Anew railroad map of this State has been pre pared by one of the attaclAs of the Pennsylvania road. It is only for private distribution, which is to be regretted, as it is one of the best maps of its kind ever gotten up. The telegraph wire now being erected to West Chester, by the Media road, will be completed in a few days. It will be a great accommodation to the residents of that borough, and has been a want long felt. Their present intercourse is by means of a wire connecting, in a roundabout way, with the Na tional Company's line. The new route will be shorter, quicker, and cheaper, and its completion is therefore anxiously looked for. A meeting of railroad presidents was held et the Continental Hotel last week, in connection with the general terminus at West Philadelphia. The new shops now building at West Philadel phia, for the Pennsylvania road, will be rapidly pushed forward to completion. They are designed to accommodate a large number of workmen, and will be quite ornamental in appearance. RAWON HOSE COMPANY. —This active fire company, having determined to keep progress With the enterprising spirit of the age, have had the third story of their building, on Queen street, below Sixth, fitted up in a style of princely, magnificence, as a reception room. The floor Ys covered with a splendid velvet carpet, from Orne's—it is therefore decidedly ornate—the prevailing colors being red and crimson ; the figure beautiful. The upholstery work consists of red and blue damask curtains, and while lace, hung from ornamented gUt win. dow heads. Between the front windows is a splendid minor, elaborately framed in air port, style. The walls and ceiling are frescoed . From a grained archin the centre suspends an eight.. light chandelier, beneath which is a marble-top centre table, of spotless white, upon which, on a fancy zephyr mat, ream -the big silver horn of,the company. Spring-seat sofas, and chairs to match, are also introduced, and to finish the picture in furniture, a large, fine-toned, seven-octave rosewood piano has a convenient place. Last evening a number of members of the company, with some of their lady friends, were present, and under the skil ful touch of the latter the instrument was made to yield its-notes of harmony to the gratification of the company. The improvements reflect great credit upon the enterprise and taste of the members of the Marion. The company has two carriages, with a large amount of the best approved forcing. hose, a fine•toned alarm bell, and all the conveniences which are necessary to a first•class lire company.

Two young men, one giving the name of Charles Barney, hailing from Truxton, N. Y., and Edwin E. Niles, boiling from No. 924 Courtland street, New York, were arraigned at the Central Station, yesterday afternoon, on the charge of committing an assault and battery, with intent to kill a young man named George Soarack, and robbing him. The prisoners have smooth fares; one of them, Niles, has rather effeminate facial developments. He will probably never aspire to be a bold murderer, but has all the appearance of one better able by nature to perform the furections of an artful dodger. Bar ney has a bad look, and, in the language of an old detective, would not hesitate to murder anybody for the sake of a Sew dollars. At the hearing they affected to be perfectly indifferent as .the investlea tion progressed, though the feats were positive sgainat them. The evidence of Mr. Schraok is clear and conclusive. He appeared at the hearing with his head bandaged, and so faint from the outrageous treatment he had received at the haruls of the pri toners, that he could scarcely speak above & whis per ; it was necessary, aloe, to, provide him with a chair, as it was painful for him to stand. 5 51 6.131ict 40.9 50.7 George Schrack sworn.—l board and lodge at the Mount. Vernon Hotel, on Second street, above Rase ; I became acquainted with the two prisoners at the supper-table last evening ;`they they said they were strangers in the city and would like to go, to the theatre; I had some business to attend to in Cam den,.N. J. ; I arrived back at half past eight o'clock, and went to the Arch-street Theatre , with them ; we returned to, the hotel at half past ten o'clock ; Bar ney asked me to take a drink ; I did so, and shortly after retired to go to bed ; Barney also came up stairs'; ' , had taken my, watch oft and laid it aside ; Barney came in ; he invited me into his room to look at something ; when I got in there, he showed me a. sharp-shooter ; while I was looking at it he suddenly struck me a heavy blow with -a billy on the head ; the leaden end of it flew off ; he got my pocket-book while I was yet sensible ; he took my watch and chain while I was insensible ; my pocket took contained four $lO 11. S. treasury notes, and two $2 bank notes ; my watch is 18-aarat gold, and with chain, worth $80; my breastpin was also sto len ; it was in the shape of a hand, holding a small diamond stone;'after he got through striking me with the billy, he grabbed me by the throat; here are the marks (witness exhibited his neck, which bore unmistakable evidence of violence) ; the other prisoner came into the room, and tine* something in my face; this man was star.ding outside when I went into the room with Barney ; I don't know whether he put his knee on my breast or not, as I became insensible almost immediately after the stuff was thrown into my item. A. F. Blair oworn.—l am the proprietor of the Mount Vernon Hotel; the prisoners came there Stol getber in company they roomed together; were ac quainted with each other; one of them registered himself as coming from New York ; the other as coining from New Jersey; they gave the names of Rainey, and Niles. Charles Smith, detective, here brought in a dark colored overcoat, which he handed to the alderman. Barney acknowledged ownership of the boat. It is stained or rather besmeared with blood on its front, a fact that Barney did not appear to know any about. E. M. Bird sworn—Arrested this party at the Kensington depot at about half past one o'clock this morning ; found this pocket book (identified by Mr. Shrack) on the person of Barney; most of these keys and files were in a valise ; a bunch of keys was found in Barney's pocket ; found these two watches, gold and silver, on the prisoners ; found the billy in the room at the hotel;;found the sharp shooter in possession of the prisoners. Barney declared he never, saw the pocketbook. Niles said, " why, there'smothing against me." He also denied throwing anything into the eyes of the complainant. The prisoners were committed in default of $5,000t bail each, to answer. The following additional particulars of this great outrage were not developed at the hearing. It seems that when Barney had knocked his victim down, and partly failing, because the weapon, a large one, was broken by the force of the blow; the other came in and threw chloroform in his face.' They had, everything their own way. After stealing all - they could they retired from_the hotel, locking the door of the room in which the.prostrate Mr. Schraok was lying in a state of stupor. About half past twelve o'clock he partly revived, and hie groans brought assistance. A scene of excitement pre vailed in the hotel; the boarders 'were aroused, and one of them, Mr. Charles Bender; hastily put his clothes on, and proceeded to the Central Station. After much kicking at the door the sleepers were awakened. Messrs. Bird and Smith, night detec- tives, in company with Er. Bender, proceeded to. the New York ddp6t. Mr. Bender pointed them out, and the arrest was made. A more daring at tempt at premeditate murder, with malice afore thought, has not happened in this city for some time. The arrest of the villians may be attributed to the extraordinary exertions of several of the boarders at the Mount Vernon, who thus proved themselves good citizens. . Sarah McDevitt and Mary, Moore are the names of a couple of women who were arrested at Fourth' and South streets by Officer Burns, having in their possession .a couple of iron kettles, with lids, which they had probably stolen from some hardware store, on Monday evening. The accused were arraigned before the police magistrate of the Third district station, and failed to give a satisfactory account as to the possession of "the articles. A. pair or two of new shoes were also found upon them. The goods await owners at the station house, in Union "Street, below Fourth. The defendants were committed in default of $l,OOO to answer at court. LEGAL INTELLIGENCE. Distitict Court—Judge Sharavvood John Goodrich vs. - Thomas J. Kenton. This was an action to recover on a promissory note for $3OO, drawn to the order of defendant, and by him en dorsed. The defence set up was a failure of con sideration between the original parties, and that the plaintiff was not a bona fide holder for value. An application for a continuance was made on the part of the defendant, on the ground that exceptions had been filed to plaintiff's answer to defendant's bill of discovery. The court refused the application because the exceptions had not been filed before the next rule day after the filing of the answer. Ver dict foriplaintiff for $334 61. E. H. Tharp and George W.
