RICHMOND ITEMS.
The high pricey of fanning implements, wearing
apparel, eta., is the great excuse of some farmers for`
their exorbitant charges for what they have to-sell.
If one of them has to pay four times the usual cost
fora scythe blade he odes out extortion, while at
i
the same time he' is selling potatoes and corn at ten
and fifteen times the old prices. The desire to make
]Money has taken possession of all ebonies i but none
of them mem more bent on getting a big bite than
farmers.
The waste lands of Virginia, if put in order this
fall, and cultivated next spring, would produce a
sufikiency of grain to supply the army. For every
field of a hundred acres or more the Government
could well afford to exempt one man to insure its
cultivation. Producers are now as essential to our
success as soldiers, and the law makers should have
an eye to this matter in drafting their militia bill.
Danz negroes, from all sections of the Confede
racy, have flocked here since the commencement of
the war, in search of easy employment. Toget rid
them the Mayer halt put his officers at work, and
in a very short time will have them all <under his
control. The males, it is intimated, are to be turned
over to the Confederate authorities, to be employed
in the batteries and other public works, and the fe
males will be sent back to the places from whence
they came, or sold into slavery.
Bootle substitute papers, said to be numbered by
tens of thousands, are about to get their holders into
Meriouts trouble. The Government officers are draw
ing their coils around these worthy gentlemen in all
sections of the Confederacy, and in the course of a
few weeks, at farthest, several regiments of them
are expected to be sent to the fields Bogus Mary
land papers have also kept many able•bodied men
from the field ; but they, too, have had their day.
Corr Orr FRAUDS IN TEXAB.—The Galveston
Niles has information that in Anderson county,
Texas, certain partite openly boast of having made
SlOO.OOO clear money by buying cotton as Govern
ment agents, while they admit they had no authority
as Agents. It doubts not a full investigation will
show that similar impositions have, been practised
in nearly every ebtton-growing county of the State.
General Kirby Smith has appointed commissioners
to look it. these matters.
ANOTHER LIBERAL AND PATRIOTIC DERD.—The
Eagle Manufacturing Company of Columbus, Ga.,
have long been noted for their liberal deeds and pa
triotic sets. They have given of their abundance,
and bountifully. whenever called upon and wherever
opportunity offered. They now propose to pay
twenty-five dollars per barrel for flour, to the extent
of one hundred barrels, or five dollars per bushel for
its equivalent in wheat, and will send the flour as a
contribution, free of all cost, to the sick and wounded
moldier', of the Tennessee army, and will also pay
one dollar per bushel for two thousand bushels of
meal, and distribute it among Adams , families, and
the needy of Columbus and neighborhood, at one
half its cost.
WHAT THE MEETINGS ARE COMPOSED OF.—Col.
Thos. M. Garrett, of the srh North Carolina Regi
ment, otters a reward of $250 for the arrest of 0. D.
Sides, a deserter from that regiment. Colonel Gar
rett says : "This man deserted on the 10th of May
/sat, and was last heard of as figuring on the com
mittee to draft resolutions for a meeting held in
Yorsyth county on the 26th of August." A deserter
drafting resolutions fora peace meeting No won
der the Administration of President Davis was de
nounced at such meeting. Deserters, of course, are
opposed to sending any more men from North Caro-
Tina.
Tux Mississippian states that the genuine tea
lalant grows wildly upon the Drell:ldea of Dr. 0. E.
Brown, of Opelika, Ale, from an original importa

pedition.
GOOD SHOOTING.—The color-bearer of the 10th
TenDeelsee (Irish), having been shot down in the
battle of Chickamauga, the COlonel 'ordered one of
the privates to take the cOlOre. Pat, who was load-.
ingest the time, replied: "By St. Patrick, Colonel,

MEXICO.
Files of DEstalette, of Mexico city, to the 25th of
September, and of La Independencia lie/nut, of San
Luis Potosi, to the 6th of the same month, give the
following : .
The papers state that it is becoming quite a common
thin_ g to see French golden lying dead in the streets
of Mexico, covered with dagger wounds.
At a representation given in one of the theatres
for the benefit of an actor, there occurred a passage
in a poem of Zarilla in praise of Mexico, conveying
the idea ihat those who were born. Mexicans had no
reason to regret it. The people immediately broke
out into loud huzzas and the cry of Viva Melted)!
'Viva la Republica I" The French quelled the out
burst brpromptly sending gendarmes into the thee
" Ire and arresting several citizens.
Th'ere are several conflicts with guerillas reported,
In which several French soldiers have been slain.
The guerillas, it is said, are growing bolder and
more, numerous every day, and not only do they
attack the French convoys from Vera Cruz, but
make raidi up to the gates of the city.
Arrests continued to be made of Meidoans'on sus
- pinion of being concerned in the late assassination
of a Frei= Zouave at Tlalpan. A number of the
parties so arrested were to be sent to Martinique,
While others are to be held as hostages, to be put to
death if any further assassinations should occur.
Speaking on this subject, the Independencia Mlicana
"aye: The barbarous measure adopted by Forey of
apprehending the peaceful inhabitants of Tlalpan
es hostages to be shot if any Frenchmen should be
killed in encounters with the guerillas of Nese°,
demands, however repugnant to our feelings and ohs-
Mater, that we should use the-right of reprisal as
cording to the decree of the 16th, and seize as hosta
ges, from among non.combatant French, men to be
shot in like manner if Forey continues to assassi
mate Mexican citizens. It will be painful to us to
act in this manner, but there is no other means of
bringing the French to the practice of the rights of
nations, and of the laws of war among civilized na:
lions.
THE RUMORED EVACUATION' OF MEXICO.
The Paris eorresponaent of the London Daily
Nava, under date of 23d, says :
Symptoms of the comedy being played out are
crowding upon us. Just as it is found out in Eu
rope that the gitarantees which the Archduke has
been fooled Into hoping he might get are not forth
coming, there comes an apropos letter in Bunter's
cortkmomeence, dated (or supposed to be dated)'
"Vera 0/112, Sept. ES," which says :
" The choice of an Austrian prince for an Em
peror is not popular. The people would rather have
a French;prince, or, if that is not possible, a French
general,just as was the case formerly in Sweden.
There is, moreover, a party now which seems to be
more numerous than any other, and which calls for
the pure and simple annexation of Mexico to
France. The Austrian party consists exclusively of
a Sew intriguing and ambitious men, greedy of place.
Thin party is unfortunately the only one which for
the moment possesses official channels of publi
city."
Bravo ! Compare this with the reiterated asset ,
Lions of the French semi. official press, that the whole
country, so far as it was emancipated from the op
pression of Juarez, was unanimous and enthusiastic
in favor of the Austrian Prince. I am aware that
the Constitutionnel only this morning pretends that
certain "elections" in Mexico are going on most
favorably for the Archduke. But then the Constitu-
Itcnnel bad not yet received the new orders.
What is to me most significant is, that the Mont
feur, which contains two or three columns of latest
news from Mexico, carefully abstains from printing
a single word in favor of Maximilian.
The Treason Arrests in Ohio.
[From theTinein matt Gazette.]
Mr. Thomas was found on Walnut street, in com
pany with a Mr. Burns, a cutter in the clothing es
tablishment of Mr. Nienaber. He expressed some
surprise and indignation at the announcement of the
°Meer that he had Wwarrant for his arrest. On ac
count of some remark and movement on the part of
Burns, he was suspected of passing a pistol to
Thomas, as a very tine one was found upen him,
and he was taken along with the prisoner, but
afterwards released, as there was no evidence against
AVMs.
The arrest of Mrs. Thomas was not effected with.
out some management. Any other officer than the
mild and almost reverent Mr. Pendery would have
had trouble with her. She was not at home when
he called ; was at a neighbor's ; he waited, and
while waiting different gentlemen called, seemingly
excited, and anxious to see her. 'They went to
where she was, and soon she returned, found Deputy
Marshal Pendery in her house. He arose, and she
inquired
"Are you a friend or foe?"
" I am a friend," the marshal replied.
The lady grasped him by the hand, and iiiinost
dragged him from the hall into a room.
" Oh," said she, "they have arrested Mr. -Tho.
teas."
"And," said the marshal, "1 am sorry to inform
you that I have a warrant for your arrest."
Mrs. Thomas stepped back astonished, and ex
claimed :
"I shall not go ; you can never take me out of
Ibis house," and wea greatly excited for awhile.
The marshal endeavored to quiet her; told her
she would think differently soon; it was a necessity
that would have to be submitted to ; she would re
ceive kind treatment, arc. At last she concluded to
go along, as she would get to see her husband. When
she met Mr. Thomas and Mrs. Parmenter in the
marshal.% office ' she again became much excited,
and alorg with the other lady expressed her detes
tation of the Linsoln Government; said this was
all the result of her husband's talk about the war.
An American Merchant's Generosity to
Russian Sailors.
Admiral Disovski, now In New York, was cap
tain of the frigate Diana when she was shipwrecked.
Ile, with about one hundred and fifty of his crew,
succeeded in reaching the Russian dominions in the
American schooner Caroline Foote. Hie other offi
cers and two hundred and fifty men attempted to
reach there in the Hamburg brig Greta, but were
captured by a British cruiser and taken to Hong
Kong, which afforded an American merchant there
(Mr. Silas E. Burrows) an opportunity of tendering
American hospitality to them, as the following let-
ter shows :
Howa Kowa, Nov, 23, 1855.
, To Silas E. Burrows, Esq. :
Sin: The unfortunate loss by shipwreck of the
Russian frigate Diana has placed me, with my
brother officers, as prisoners of war for some months
in Hong Kong, during all of which time we have
been treated by
you, in your house, the same as if
we bad been in the houses of our parents.
Your attentions have been to us so great that your
only desire appeared to be to render us as happy as
]ay in your power, and your goodness makes us forget
our sad position.
Your kind attention and goodness we feel most
deeply,find we regret that the warmest thanks from
our heftts are all we have at present to offer in re
turn.
Be ensured we shall never forget your goodness
and the treatment we have received in your house
from you and your sons. Our most ardent desire
and hope is for your continued good health and hap
piness. I have the honor to be, sir,
'Your moat obedient and 'very humble servant,
M. POTJSOFIKINE,
Late first lieutenant of his Imperial Majesty's fri
gate Diana.
Mr. Burrows received a similar testimonial from
Count Ncsselmle, the Russian Minister.
The President.
The following is the tribute of a gallant and faith
ful soldier to the President, whom he has had the
utmost opportunities of knowing, and whom the
Copperhead press unite in reviling There are
not a few who have quailed before the magnitude of
the task. 01-those, thank Heaven, the President is
not one. He whom the burden has most bent, has
never faltered in heart or purpose. He is sustained,
As is just, by the great mass of the nation, by the
potential force of the press, and by the armies and
fleets of the Union. Grappling with administrative
questions more difficult and delicate than ever be
fore tried the sagacity and courage of our statesmen,
be has so borne himself that every loyal heart ac.

A Illir..trAny RSPUBLIO.—By the census of 1880,
there were 27,000,000 of white people in the United
States.- Of these, 20,000,000 ttelong to the loyal
States, one half of whom, or 10,000,000, are males.
Of theme males 34 per cent. are between the ages of
20 and 44, making 8,400,000 of our arms-bearing popu

to the field, or slightly over 1 to 2% of all between
the ages of 20 and 45 1 And yet we have enough left
to whip out the rebellion, and carry forward the
great interests of the country u it no war WAS on
our hands. It was not thought possible that a Re.
public could be a military nation ; but the fact, ait,
. now demonstrated, is not the most encouraging to

43berles Welsh, from Schuyierville, was found deed

_ _
SELECT BRANCH.
Plpaide LTED in the chair. ,
The reading of thejournarwaa dhipensed with.
Petitions, Communications, gr.e.
The commission for :the erection of a Municipal
Hospital' presented a communication stating that
they had awarded a contract for the erection of the
same, to Messrs. Balderston br. Alverson, at a cost of
$46,032. Thiswas the lowest of all thebids received
and is higher by $lO,OOO than the sum appropriated'
for that purpose. The commission think the suet is
reasonable in view of the increased price of building
materials.
An ordinance was then introduced making the ad
ditional appropriation of $lO,OOO, the sum required,
which was agreed to.
A communication wan received from the , City
Treasurer elect, submitting his sureties. Referred.

joint resolution of Councils, passed October 2911 i,
re
questing him to inform those bodies "if the Junction
Railroad Company , has the right to destroy certain
fortifications," In which he says that" the location
of their route is exclusively for them, and tf it is over
and across ground on which earthworks have been
erected at the expense of the May, such location can
not be prevented for that reason. In all cases, how
ever, where the earthworks have been constructed
upon ground in which the city has a leasehold or
freehold estate, the compensation or security there•
for provided by the act would enure in her favor. l,
One from the Chief Engineer and Surveyor in an
swer to a'resolution of inquiry, stating that he was
not aware that a contract had been awarded for the
construction of the bridge over Cohocksiak creek.
The plan had been submitted to the Highway De

red.
The Committee on Water Works submitted an
estimate of their expenses for the year 1864, which'
was read and referred.

corner of York road and Willow street. Agreed to.
Mr. ZANE offered .a resolution transferring certain
items in the annual appropriation bill of the Board of
School Controllers, for the purpose of purchasing
stoves for the north school section. Agreed to.,
An ordinance was also presented, making an ad
ditional appropriation of $lB,OOO to the Board of
School Controllers, $17,000 of which is for fuel, and
the balance for minor matters. Postponed.
Mr. CATHIERWOOD offered a resolution, relative to
the paving of Bridge street, in the Twenty-third
ward, which passed.
'-The consideration of the mayor's veto to the or
dinance.for the admissionof additional pupils into

next meeting.
•' Bills om the Common Connell.
The bill from Common Council in relation to f au
thorizing a loan for the further extension of the
water works, received a vote of ii yeas to 7 nays,
which, not being a two-third vote, the blll was lost.
WICTHERILI. moved to reconsider the vote,
which was agreed to. He then moved to pcistpone
the bill till the next meeting, which finally passed.
An ordinance authorizing Samuel Shaffer to sign
certain transfers in place of the City Treasurer, was
amended and passed.
A relfolution authorizing the grading of Eleventh
and Twelfth streets, from Berk street to Montgomery
avenue, in the Twenty-first ward. .Passed.
One to paYe the intersections of Jasper street, in
the Nineteenth ward, was referred to the Commit
tee on Highways.
Deficiency Dill.
The Deficiency bill of the Highway Department,
for the -Tear 1862, which was postponed from last
meeting, was then taken up, and after several items
being stricken out and amendments added, the bill
passed.
The bills from Common Council, authorizing the
construction of a sewer in the Fifteenth ward, and
one in the Fourteenth ward, were agreed to.

cost of lighting the city 20 per cent.
A number of other bills from that Chamber were
read and concurred in.
Mr. KING moved. o reconsider the bill making an
appropriation of $l,OOO for the use of the Committee
on Schools, which was not agreed to.
Adjourned.
COMMON BRANCH
The annual estimates of the City Commissioners
were presented.
Mr. LououLirr, of the Committee on Finance, re
ported an ordinance making an additional appro
priation of $3,800 to the department of Receiver of
Taxes. Agreed to.
The same committee reported an ordinance making
an appropriation of $BOO to Edward Carrigan and
J. Andrie Irvin, for indexing and arranging certain
books in the office of the Register of Wills, which
was adopted.
Also, an ordinance making an advance of 27„4 per
cent, on the aggregate maximum price whichthe city
agreed to pay the constructors of the Chestnut-street
bridge. A report accompanied the ordinance, alleg
ing that in consequence'of the high price of mate
rial and labor, the bridge, is progressing at a loss of
27% per cent., and it is quite likely that the loss
would soon reach 30 per cent.
Mr. Linear opposed the passage of the ordinance,
because of the important principle involved in the
matter. It would be a very bad preeedent for
Councils to make a contract, and then reverse it
when such a proceeding would be prejudicial to the
city. .The contractors took the work at the prices
agreed upon, and were glad to have it at that price.
They agreed to put up the bridge at a certain price,
and they, should be compelled, to do so. Suppose
that the value of labor and material had depre
ciated, so that the contractors could make $BO,OOO
more than they could reasonably anticipate, would
the contractors, in that instance, surrender the
$BO,OOO to the city t When the contract was entered
into, the risk ofloss or gain was equal for both par
ties. Furthermore, he stated, that while workmen
could be obtained at one dollar per diem, and mate
rial was cheap, work was suspended on the bridge
for OA weeks. That was valuable time lost,. in
which everything , increased in price. Mr. Leigh
moved to postpone the bill for one week.
Mr. CHESS - WELL referred to the difficulties which
the contractors had, to contend against. The origi
nal contract obliged them to employ none but Phila
delphians on thework. This .was so onerous that
the matter had to be revised by Councils. The con
tractors always paid'good wages to their men. It
was unjust to expect them to proceed with the work
at so ruinous a price. When the contract was
agreed upon, coal could be bought for $4.50 per ton,
and now it is $lO. Iron, which then sold at CR,
now commands $42. Au increase of 27 per cent. will
not cover the increase.
'Messrs. 11AIWER. and Lovourirr made speeches
in favor of the ordinance.
The motion to postpone was not agreed to, and the
bill only passed second reading.
A resolution for grading Ellsworth street, First
ward, was agreed to.
The Committee on Wharves and Landings sub.
mitted an ordinance leasing to the Delaware-avenue
Minket Company Dock-street wharf, at an annual
rental of 84,000. 'Laid over.
The same committee recommended the extending
of the lease on Allegheny-avenue Landing to Jesse
Thompson for five years, at the same rate at which
it is now leased. Postponed.
Mr. ECKSTEIN, from the Committee on Surveys,
übmitted an ordinance authorizingthe construction
of a sewer on Thompson street, Nineteenth ward,
which was agreed to.
Mr. T. P. ADAMS offered a resolution providing
for the deposit of the dirt in the Seventeenth,
Eighteenth, and Nineteenth wards in Norris Square.
Referred.
. .
The resolution, directing the City Controller to
countersign the warrants of the Highway Depart.
went for cleansing the streets of the city, was taken
up.
Mr. BARGSR moved an amendment that the same
be charged to item eleven of the highway appropria
tion. Agreed to, and the bill passed.
Various Select Council ordinances were concurred
in, and the Council adjourned. A
' FIRE SIGNALS.—A communication '
signed
" New Patrons," desires a republication of the fire
signals, as given on the State House bell, so that a
large 'number of strangers who have moved into
Philadelphia within a few months past, may know
what they mean, Sr..c.
In answer to the request, we state that the city of
Philadelphia is divided into seven fire districts, as
follows:
First District—All of the city south of Spruce
street, from Delaware to Schuylkill.
Second District—From Spruce to Race street,
Delaware to Schuylkill.
Third District—From Race to Green street, Dela
ware to Schuylkill.
Fourth District—From Green street to Allegheny
avenue, from Delaware to S'chuylkill.
Fifth District—North of Allegheny avenue, from
Delawareriver to Broad atfeet.
Sixth District—North of Allegheny avenue, from
Broad street to the Schuylkill.
Seventh District—West Philadelphia, in the
Twenty•fourth ward.
The State House is considered to be the centre of
the city, and the district and direction of the fire is
struck from this point.
A single tap indicates north, two taps south, three
taps east, four taps west.
One tap and three taps (one, three) indicates
northeast. •
. .
Two taps and three taps (two, three) southeast.
One tap and four taps (one, four) northwest.
Two taps and four tape (two, four) southwest.
This is the old style of ringing the bell, and it will
be adhered to until a better arrangement can be
made. In addition to this, the district is first
sounded by the bell twice, and the direction of
the fire.
For instance : Suppose a Lire should oCCUr at the
corner of Broad and Chestnut streets. This would
be In the Second district, and directly west from the
State House. Now, in order to distinguish the sig
nal, in such a case, from a southwest fire, indicated
by two tape and four taps (two.four), the bell would
be struck as follows: 'Tap, tap (pause) tap, tap
(another pause) ; tap, tap, tap, tap ( pause); tap,
tap, tap, tap (pause) ; tap, tap, tap, tap (pause) ;
tap, tap, tap, tap (pause).
If the Jimmie in the First district—say, Broad and
Prime streets—then the bell would be struck as fol
lows:
Tap (pause) ; tap (pause) ; tap, tap (pause); tap,
tap, tap, tap (pause). Thus it will be seen that much
depends upon the skill or oomluon sense of the bell
ringer. In the above case there should be conside
rable pause between the taps indicating the district ;
because, if struck in quick succession, the listening
citizen might suppose the fire was in the Second dim.
trict, southwest. It should, however, be remem
bered that the district is struck twice before the di
rection is given.
In case orgeneral alarm; the bell will be struck in
rapid succession, the bell. having first signified the
district in which the fire is , raging.
CORONER'S INQUEST.—Coroner Taylor
held an inquest, yesterday morning, in the ease of
Patrick Doras, who was run over and killed on the
Market - street Passenger Railway at Forty-first and

THE POLICE.
[Before Mr. Alderman Battler.
Discharged.
The two young men arraigned at the Central Sta
tion on Wednesday, on the oharge of having robbed
the fire•proof of Nimrod Woolery of the sum of
$1,450, were yesterday discharged from custody.
rnexpeeted Development
A young man named Ernest Ebert was arraigned
about a week since, at the Central Station, on - the
charge of stealing some: bed clothes, &0., the pro•
perty of itir. Devoe, at the corner of Gold street
and Second. .The principal witness against the ac
cused was H. Wiltecamp. The case went over for a
further hearing, and it came up yesterday afternoon.
In the meantime, come evidence was obtained that
seemed to implicate Widtecamp in the robbery, and
yesterday be found himself a prisoner, instead of a
Apneas. Both the parties were required to enter
$6OO bail to answer at court. - •
LEGAL INTELLIGENCE.
Court of Oyer and Terminer and Quarter
Sessions—Judge Thompson.
Gottle% Reber was put on trial yesterday, charged
with the larceny ors9oo, the. property of Henry
Roth. From the evidence, it appears that Mr. Roth
is the keeper of a public house, and had this
money, which was all in specie, in a trunk in a
second-story back room of his house. On the even
ing that the money was stolen the defendant was in
the bar-room, and Mrs. Roth testified that she saw
him pass through the kitchen. When the larceny
was discovered the defendant's house was searched,
and some pieces of money were found, which the
prosecutor identified as his, although at the time of
the search the constable testified he could not posi
tively identify them. Every facility, it appears, was
afforded the officers by the defendant; some $350 in
specie was found.
The defence set up wail of course a total denial of
the charge, and evidence was offered to show that
the money found in his house was the product of
his own economy ; "that he= had been saving his
money, and had thus collected the amount the offi
cers had found.. Evidence of good character was
also Introduced. The case was not concluded when
the court adjourned.
