THE NEWS. Tex plans of General Grant in the Southwest are approaching full reality, andthe war in that quarter rapidly attaining its - greatest concentration. A movement, long foreshadowed and for some time noiselessly, taking place, has at last accomplished and announced itself. General Sherman's corps has joined to the right of Grant's forma, in the region of ltdattanooga, Sherman himself having reported at .the headquarters of Gen. Thomea. This event is of the highest value to the military eituation,and almost determines at once the fate of the rebel cause in the West. The leaders of the enemy designed to prevent this junotion, or delay it for a very long time. Their utter failure in this partieular, and the Ina bility of Bragg, in the intervening pet bad, to make any headway at Chattanooga, must prove die heartening. Sherman skilfully threw out forces SUlfielent to amuse the enemy Along the Memphis and Charleston Railroad, by eusciimbia, &J., while he sent Um great body of his troops forward by another route. He has left his department under excellent guard, while he has given for. midable reinforcement to the Army of the Cumberland. If them is truth in the rumor that the rebel Government is again eroding fames to Bragg by Southwestern Virginia or from Charleston, this fact may explain it. But, in any cese, the enemy appears to be pieced at final disadvantage. Loegatreet, who was reported to be marching upon Burnside, has need of greeter vigor, or 'must return at once to the main army under Bragg, in peril of being intercepted and destroyed. Grant's army, it would seem, has now force enough to operate with equal vigor upon the right and left of the enemy, whose retirement upon Rome and Atlanta may be reckoned a foregnne conehr-ion. Resents events abundantly prove shat our military authorities are neither so deficient in means or sagacity as to be outnumbered and out generelled in the Weat. Within a few months Generel Meade has twice thwarted and defeated the enemy, and in the same time the army at Chatta nooga has insured its safety and gained important advantages , To crown all, we do net doubt that the Army of the Tennessee is in junction with the forces of Hooker and the Army of the Cumberland. GRNERAL KILPATRICK on Sunday made a ream 10.01Seatte0 along the Rapidan. ascertaining that the enemy still held the line Of the river in strong force. It is reported that two divisions of Hill's Corps have left the Rapidan and proceeded southward, possibly to reinforce Bragg. A LARGE body of Unionists from North Carolina and Georgia have recently escaped from those States into Tennessee. At Warren Springs, near Ashe ville, N. C., on the 29th ult., they were attacked by -a portion of the 26th North Gkroline Regiment, 'under Lieut. Colonel Samuel 0. Bryson, who were 'badly whipped, and forced to beat a hasty retreat to Asheville. The rebels lost six men killed and thirty Wounded. After the fight the Unionists advanced and took Asheville as a feint, and came near taking General Vance (son of the Governor) and his staff prisoners. After this the patriot band fell back to the mountains, and a letter from Governor Vance, dated Madison county, N. 0„ Nov. 3, states that 1, the enemy have withdrawn from Western North Carolina to East Tennessee. They carried off se veral prominent citizens in chains." THE dedication of the National Cemetery at Get tysburg will probabl ybeattended by many thousands of people, including the President of the United States, who will leave Washington today, the Go. remora of most of the loyal States, and other its tirguished Americans. Governor Curtin has issued an important order, published in another column. Hon. Edward Everett is now at Gettysburg. An Fnglisb. Plea for the Rebellion. We presume that of the men in England who sympathize with the rebellion it is the minority that sympathizes with slavery. Our presumption is sustained by many fa#ts, and: it is not unfrequently that those gentlemen Who abuse, the Government of the United states in Parliament or at public meetings, expressly deny that in desiring the success of the rebels they desire the success of slave holders. They profess that their sympathy is excited, by the spectacle of a brave and United people struggling for independence, and are horrified that any one should infer that they approve of the monstrous system of negro slavery ; though they add, to be sure the rtegroes in the South are very well treated, and much happier than the unfortunate colored men in the North. Then the United States is so tyran nical, and the Southern people are so spirited and chivalrous, and Englishmen naturally feel for the weakest party, and the cause of .the Union is really not that of freedom. Of the men who thus speak, Alderman SALo arorqs is representative, and in his recent explanatory speech to his constituents at Greenwich, we find this singular ignorance of our national affairs clearly exhibited. It is amusing to find Mr. SALOMONS corn plinaenting the farewell address of WASH INGTON, as "the finest state paper ever writ ten by human hand," (Divine hands, we knew before, had other work to do,) and at the same time misinterpreting its meaning. Never did the author of that address counsel the extension of slavery ; never did he be lieve that the Union was to be preserved for the sake of slavery ; > but, on the contrary, there is evidence that he, with all the other statesmen of his time, trusted that the Union would in the end be the means of abolishing slavery in all the States. Mr. SALoatorts says that everybody felt that when slavery was touched the Union must be dissolved. But slavery has been touched for thirty years, and the Union stood. Nay, it was more than touched, it was embraced, it was revered ; the people of the North bowed be fore its throne. The policy.of the nation was shaped to advance its interests. And when was it touched with the heavy hand of menace? Not when Mr. LINCOLN was elected, for his election was not an attack on Southern State' institutions, but a de fence of Northern freedom. It was simply a denial of the right of a minority of slaveholders to extend their man-selling and woman:whipping system over all the vast territory from the Mississippi to the Pacific. It was then, when slavery threatened to de stroy the Union, that we resolved that sla very must be destroyed itself. Mr. SALo )soxs compares the North to "those lathes of a certain character who inlulge in for bidden luxuries until they advance in years, and then become the greatest prudes ima ginable ;" but no matter how our Northern repentance was caused, or how our virtue was obtained ;,enough that the North is now earnestly, sincerely, effectively anti-slavery, 'though at one time it was disreputable to be an Abolitionist. If Mr. SaLomaws thinks, by accusing the Northern people of hypo- crisp, to justify the rebellion, his accusation is not only false, but even if true, his infe rence would be illogical. .The fact cannot be denied that formally and virtually the Union now means freedom, and the rebel lion slavery, and no sophistry can exonerate those who oppose the Union, from the shame of defending the meanest and most contemptible of all systems of extorting labor from the many for the selfish gratifi cation of the few- Mr. SALOSIONS, and thousands of other Englishmen sustain him, is the advocate of the south, because it it is fighting for inde- pendence, because is the weaker, and be- cause he believes it to be honest and sincere These are nearly his own words, cheered 1)y the large meeting he addressed. But, le is not, therefore, in favor of slavery. •Oh, no I There may be no difference in fact, but he is fully capable of finding a dis -Unction in theory. Yet, he truly says the -south is fighting for independence ; but not ,for that alone. It fights for the destruction .of the Republic, and the degradation of America. The independence it seeks is the independence of slavery. It is the weaker 'side, but evil should be the weaker, and we have reason to thank God that at last Freedom is stronger than her foes. Victory - upon victory, advance following advance, prove that the rebellion is too weak to resist the authority of the nation, and it is well for all the world that we have the virtue and the power to subdue it. The very men— free-born Englishmen they, are—who are most bitter in their denunciation of the Re- public, will ; in the end, profit by its preser vation. Mr. SA - Lomoxs little thinks, and no >man can realize, how greatlY England, `.Franoe, and Europe would suffer from the lestablishment of a great slave' Empire in 4inerica.

The case of the Alexandra was brought up before the Court of Exchequer, in Len don, on the 3d instant, being the second day of Michkelmas Term. 'I he case, it will be remembered, was tried some months ago before Sir Frimmestrox POLLOCK, Chief B iron of the Exchequer, and a special jury on the part of the Crown, prosecuting, it was claimed that the Alexandra, built and being fitted, out for the Confederates to be em ployed against the. United States mercantile marine, was 'forfeited to the Crown, as having violated the Foreign Enlistment Act and also the Queen's Proclamation of neu trality. A prima facie case was made out, and a verdict condemning the vessel was expected. But it pleased Chief Baron Pot,- Locx, an old gentleman of eighty, with oc casional crotchety notions, to charge the jury, in the strongest manner, that there was no case for the Crown, whereupon the jury, led or misled by the. Judge, delivered a verdict for the builders of the Alexandra. The law-officers for the Crow-n took excep tions to the Judge's summing-up charge. They did this, by Bill of Exceptions to the Judge's ruling, under statute of West minster, the second (18 Edw. 1, c. 31), but had no opportunity of arguing the point until the Michaelmas Term, which com menced on the 2d of November. The case was mentioned on the 3d, in the Exchequer Chamber, when it was arranged that it should be again brought up on the 5 th, when would be discussed the point whether the case can be brought within the terms of the Common Law Procedure Act, which. has abolished the Writ of Error. The Court, before whom the case will then be argued, consists of Sir FREDERICK POLLOCK, Chief Baron of the Exchequer, and four puisne Barons—MARTIN, BRAM WELL, CHANNELL, and PIGOTT. The last named has only just been made a judge, and may naturally have a. novice's submis sion to the opinion of his Chief. Sir FEE- Immo> PoLLocs unequivocally has strong Southern sympathies, being a bitter Tory, who was PEEL'S AttOrney General in 1834-85, and again in 1841-44. Moreover, at a civic banquet, since the Alexandra trial, this same POLLOCK made a speech in which he strongly expressed, his sympathy with the slave-holding South. Sir SAMUEL MAR TIN, another of the Judges in the Court of Exchequer, is POLLOCK'S SOIL-111-law, which does not promise mucb;.for his impartiality. Sir W. F. CrtANISELL has been six years on the bench without having done or said any thing particular in any way. Sir GEORGE W. G. BRAMWELL, third puisne Baron, is the only one of the five judges, before whom the Alexandra case will be argued, whose opinion is of much value under the circum stances, Eccentric in some things, he is a clear-headed and independent lawyer, who never has allowed his Chief to pooh-pooh his opinion. When the trial took place the. Crown was unfortunate in its legal advisers. Sir Wm,- mos ATHERTON, who stands in the van of second-hand plodding lawyers, was then Attorney General, but the responsibility of this Alexandra case overpowered him, espe cially as his health was very feeble. He has since been compelled, by increasing de bility, to surrender his office, which proba bly brought him an income of $lOO,OOO a year. His colleague, Sir ROUNDELL PALMER, Solicitor General at the time, is a man of great ability, but was then too re cent in office to have much confidence in himself; besides, he was obliged, to a cer tain extent, to follow in the wake of his somewhat timid superior officer. Sir WIL LIAM ATHERTON, it should be noted, has always practised at the Common Law bar, whereas Sir Rovliimia, PALMER is a Chan cery barrister, which makes a vast difference in a case involving international as well as common saw. Sir R. PALVER, now Attor ney General, will lead the case before the Court of Exchequer, assisted by •Mr. COLLIER, the newly-appointed Solicitor General, lately Counsel to the British Admi ralty, and well known in this country as the independent lawyer who, though holding office under the Crown, did not hesitate to give his opinion that the building of the Alabama was an infraction of British statute law. He also recommended the seizure of the Alexandra. It may be expected that the case before the Court of Exchequer will be more ably conducted for the Crown, than if Sir WIL- T...lAm A.THEEToN had still been Atorney General. At the same time, we are not among the sanguine few who hope and ex pect that the Crown will succeed, on this occasion. The Court will be requested to pronounce that the charge to the jury by its own Chief, who tried the Alexandra case, was so unfair that a motion for a new trial shall be granted. The Chief Baron, whose law, sagacity, and fair play are thus challenged, will himself preside over the tribunal which will try himself; and will vote, if needs be, (for his own acquittal,) in his own case. This may remind our legal readers of the old professional adage about the unprofitableness of going to law with a certain black gentleman, and holding the court in a. certain hot plaCe. The accused will preside on his own trial, as it were, and his son-iulaw will assist Here are two votes out of five. Barons BRAMWELL and .CEARNELL may vote the other way—but the new judge, Baron Preorr, if he vote at all, will probably have a leaning towards the bead of his Court If the Judges'_ opi nions were two and two, the Chief Baron, whose legality and fair play on the trial are challenged, would have the casting vote; which, of course, he will give for himself, and against granting a new trial. If the Crown be not content with this, it may ap. peal to the House of Lords, as the highest and final Court of law in the Kingdom. This would be such - an expensive and tedious course that the war may be ended long he fore their Lordships could come to a decision. It was considered that the Crown Lawyers I had only feeble hopes, under all the circum stances, of inducing the Exchequer Cham ber to declare its senile Chief wrong, by setting aside the verdict. Thus the common law of the matter would continue in doubt, for numerous persons are not satisfied with the verdict in the case of the Alexandra. There is a serious question of international law also involved. The Times truly says : "If iron-plated rams are constructed here with the moral cer tainty that they will proceed to run down Federal merchantmen, without ever going near a Confederate port, it is time.tb arrive at a distinct knowledge of what the law is that bears upon the subject " Earl RUSSELL, in his Blairgowrie ora tion, dimly shadowed out the probable action of the Government, during the next session—namely, to ask Parliament to make the present Foreign. Enlistment Act a living book instead of a dead letter, or, what would be still better, to repeal that feeble enactment and pass a new and stringent law which will cover all contingencies such as the cases of the Alabama, Florida, and`' Alexandra, as well as the war rams. A great deal of legal verbiage will be ex pended in the Exchequer Chamber when the Alexandra case comes up. Chief Baron Pormour, looking more frog• eyed than ever, will of course asseverate that he charged the jury according to the law and his conscience, but we shall be disappointed if any thing like substantial justice be rendered. The ineffi ciency of the law will be made the scape goat for denial of justice. Meanwhile, our readers have the case as it stands, put very plainly, with careful avoidance of legal technicality. Passenger Railway Engines. The residents of the northern suburbs of the city, including Holmesburg, Blistleton, `Frankford, and Fox Chase, impressed. with the necessity of having better facilities of communication with the city proper by rail, applied to the Legislature last winter forthe privilege of constructing 'city passenger railway, connecting with the three first mentioned`points. The charter was granted, and we now have before us the " Prospectus of the Frankfort]. and Holmesburg Rail road," which has lately been projected, and which promises to be no Insignificant com petitor of the Philadelphia and Trenton ' road. In their prospectus, the friends of the new enterprise, which of course means all the residents, of the section referred to, glgerye V 1,1011111 5, that the adyantages to TFLE PRESS.-PHELADEAAPIM: WEDNESDAY„ NOVEMBER 18, 1863. be derived front: the construction of the road will be twofold, firstly to the Tiro - party holders in the increased value of real estate, and secondly to the whole population, in the greater facility of access to the business centre of tlie city. Nor will the benefit end here ; for aturther re sult, quite as certain to follow, will be to re duce rents in the built-up portions of Phila delphia to a more moderate figure ; and at the same time extend the area of population, stimulate building imProvemente, and in general tend to increase the prosperity, wealth, and business importance of the city. The introduction of• the passenger-railway system marked the •inauguration of an era of improvement in Philadelphia, whose re sult has been to benefit all classes of the com munity. But the system is yet far from being perfect. There is still plenty of room for vast reform. The projectors of the Frank ford and Holmesburg road have appreCiated this fact, and have given us an evidence of their intention to turn their appreciation to good account It is gratifying to know that they propose to employ steam " dummy engines" of sufficient power,. with a car at tached for passengers, and an apartment for light freight, to be run as fre quently, as the wants of the commu nity may suggest. The . prospectus _,tells_ us 'that " the time consumed in running from Holmesburg to Frankford will be about fifteen minutes, and thence by steam to the city . depfit of the Frankford Road about twenty minutes, or thirty-five minutes in all." Such an enterprise as this, if its success shotild be at all proportionate to the eipectations of its originators—and all cibt on this point is dispelled by actual experiment— cannot fail to be, a popular and profitable one. Henceforth the resi dents of Holmesburg can attend a lecture ,or a theatre in the • city with as little in convenience as our people who live on Chestnut or Walnut streets. Therefore, we are glad . to learn that there is a tiattering prospeet that the new line will speedily be completed. It is a step in the right diree tkm. After awhile—very soon, we hope— we shall have " dUremy" cars on all our pas senger railways. The result is inevitable. Like the fall of the Southern Confederacy, it is merely a question of time. Horse-Cars may answer very well for New York, where any wider departure from the old-fashioned " Knickerbocker" Stage-coaches would be too u_noithodox to be popular ;• but Phila delphia must be . more' progressive, as she was in the matter of municipal telegraphs, steam fire-engines, the Gray's Ferry en trencbments., and a hundred otherr - popular enterprises." We are willing to admit, in common with all who ever wrote a compo sition in their school-days, that the horse is a noble quadruped. The sphere of his use fulness,- however, is rapidly contracting, and, unless, to use an expressive Micawber ism, something should "turn up," the genus equus will .iu a very few years be come extinct, as is nowthe case, we believe, with the, mastodon and the icthyosaurus. Still, let us hope that the fear of such a dire result will not deter our railway presidents from turning their attention to steam as a motor for city passenger cars ; for steam has been weighed in the balance, and never • found wanting. To Loyal Delawarians. As evey true soldier is bound by honor and duty to join his regiment before a battle is begun, so is every loyal man bound to de fend loyal principles whenever they are at tacked. At every State election this year, the efficiency of these principles has been, or will be, endangered, and every man who calls himself loyal is personali t y dishonored if he fails to use his whole power to protect them. Delaware will to-mogrow maintain or lose at the polls her reputation. The is sue is between the friends and the enemies of the Union, and should be decided by a full and exhaustive vote. Every disloyal voter will be brought to the polls—this we knout. Dare any loyal DeiaWarian be ab sent ? Many citizens of Delaware are now in Philadelphia ; they should be at home to morrow. It is their duty to vote for Mr. N. B. SMITHERS, the Union candidate for Congress, and to aid in utterly defeating those disgraceful principles which Mr. CHARLES BROWN represents. If Delaware should be dishonored by the success of the disloyal party, the many Union men who are absent from the polls without sufficient rea son, must largely share in the responsibility. Philadelphia Rioters at the Delaware Elections. We are specially informed that the mili tary, authorities at Wilmington• have been notified that a large number of rowdies, from New York and Philadelphia, intend to visit Delaware on Thursday, for the purpose of taking part in the elections. This must be very gratifying to all who prize good order and a free and peaceable exercise of the elective franchise. But it is more gratifying to know that Brigadier General TYLER has made preparations to receive these gentle men with due honors, and that they will not complain of the inhospitality of Delaware. But they must not complain if they are not allowed to take. forcible possession of the polls, to drive 'Union voters away, or to cheer for Mr. JEFFERSON DAVIS with their usual energy. We trust they will, be ac companied in the cars by all the loyal citi zens of Delaware now in Pennsylvania. These rioters and rowdies show an example of enterprise and interest in the result which all patriotic and respectable voters of Dela ware may wisely imitate. Public Eatertainments. Tim GERMAN OFBRA.-Mr. Ar1801111t; at the be ginning of the season, promised the performance of four new operas—the "Faust" of Gounod, the Indra" of Flstow, the "Euryanthe" of Weber, and the "Seesonda" of Spohr. One-fourth of this very liberal promise will be redeemed to.night, in the production of "Faust," but though we are in formed that ' " Indra" will be given next week, we cannot expect the management to keep its entire word. Four new operas in twelve nights was a great deal to promise, and while we altogether ac- quit the management of any intentionto disappoint the public, and believe the announcement was made in perfect good faith, we are sorry it was made. Many reasons there are why the promise is broken. Madame Rotter, who was to sing in "Indra," has been Sick, and unable to appear in public; a very serious accident preyented the earlier production of "Faust" We are more willing to accept as satis• factory txPiEtrtati9n# theme arsi Similar facts, be cause Mr. Anichutz has really kept his great pro`- mise—that the German Opera should be worthy of all the patronage the public might choose to give.. It is not impossible, either, that we may yet, hear both "Indra" and " Euryanthe." Butlet the least, the German opera will have the honor of producing "Faust" for the first time in America, and in a style worthy of its merit What we have heard of the music of '; Faust" is beautiful, justifies its Europeon reputation, and so counts for its remarkable success in Paris. The libretto closely follows the language and, plot of Goethe's drama ; the opportunity for stage effect is immense, and we trust will be well used. New scenery has been expreasly painted for this opera by Nicola Meister, and a ballet is introduced in the second act Faust will be sung by Herr Hirnmer, and Marguerite by M. 3 11e. Frederici, and these artists are familiar with their roles, having sung them Sue. cessfully in Europe. The choruses are numerous and very fine, and will develop one of the strongest parts of the company. The orchestral rehearsals have been,,of course, thorough. " Faust" interests and excites the musical world, ands its production this evening should attract the largest audience of the season, A Cascrumr for the benefit of the Moravian Church w.l.begiven -to-morrow evening, at the Musical rend Hall. It will probably be a musical entertainment of interest and value, and certainly deserves to.be attended by all who desire the pros- perity of a useful religious organization.

It is due to Miss Charlotte Cushman to say, that Able extraordinary gift of money, so magically evoked by her spell, is but the least part of the ser vice which, ever since our war becan, the has been rendering our cause in Europe.

THE [POH ADDITIONAL CITY MUMS, 5E13 VOURTE PAWS.) MEETING OP THE HORTICULTURAL SO c.re.TY.—A meeting of the above society was held last evening at their Hall, southwest corner of Broad, and Walnut streets. The attendance was large—President J. E. Mitchell in the chair. - The committee to whom was referred for exami nation a variety of - dessicated vegetables, presented by Professor Booth, reported that the vegetables under examination were as follows : Cauliflowers, cabbage, turnips, onions, ,potatoes, parsley, leeks, tomatoes, globe artichoke, ground or Jerusalem artichoke, and a package marked "Julian Soup ;" the latter was tried at a restaurant during the annual exhibition of the society. They were boiled according to the directions, with the addition of a small portion of butter, and was tasted by the president and other members of the society. This was whfkt the directions on the package termed "Soup "Magre." Your committee unanimously agreed that it WAS, indeed, very "meagre soup;" but ugln a SUbsefplent trig When boiled in the usual WaY With some meat, it proved admirabie, the taste and flavor of the vegetables being perfeet, and very little, if any, inferiorlo these fresh from the garden. The potatoes when boiled showed an astonishing in crease in bulk, and asstudt.sfte appearance and taste of ordinary boiled and melded potatoes. The same may be said of all the other dessloated vegetables, creasing greatly in bulk, and assuming the appo...dr ance and taste of those fresh from the garden. The globe artichoke, "cynasa scolymus," was quite astonishing; the appearance of the dessieated ar ticle in the package is that of shriveled or dried sticks or chips, but when boiled they, assume the perfect size,. shape, and color of the natural leaf; the rich, marrowy substance they contain apparently as abundant as In the fresh plant, and is really &Helium. Your committee tin ant mouely arrived ,at the conclusion that these deseicated vegetables are invaluable where fresh ones cannot obtained, and that the great reduction in - hulk and weight renders them highly important to the army and navy and also to travel lerr, who may, if they desire, put bushels of potatoes, for instance, in - a small trimk. An election of mem bers was then gone into, and fifty•eight new members were elected.

We have faith, however, that before the winter fairly gets in that something will be done which will materially affect the longevity of the rebel Confederacy. a Money was comparatively easy at 6(417 per cent.; the demand, however, is very stroneon stock collateral, nod we hope for the healthiness of the various markets, that all trouble is at an end, for as somebody said, "tall oaks from little acorns grow." so may a distrwsful rank disturb the entire current of mercantile prosperity.

THE POLICY OF GETTING TUE BEST.-- We have seldom been more forcibly impressed with the truth, that it is the best policy in making pur chaser, especially - Az articles of machinery, to get the best, than we have recently been in finding that very many of our citizens, who have been using • ..- sewing machines of •other makes, are now selling them out at a heavy discount, and supplying them• selves instead with the Wheeler & Wilson instru ment," sold in this city at their splendid new brown stone arise, No. 704 Chestnut street. 'And-the fact that scores of other machines are daily offered at their rooms, for exchange, in this way, (which, we believe, for obvious reasons, they invariably decline,) is the beat evidence in the world that the wisest plan is for purchase the Wheeler & Wilson instrument at first. Other instruments may have certain kinds of merit, but this' is absolutely perfect' in every particular. The recent history of the origin and progress of the Wheeler & Wilson Machine, published in the papers of this city, we perceive, is being extrnsively copied in the leading journals throughout the country as an interesting chapter of popular information, and the effect of it can only be to secure for it, in a still higher degree, the prominence to which it is justly entitled. Every body should call at their rooms, No. Mt Chestnut street, before purchasing any other machine. TUE GREAT PIITLADELPRIA FETR Em- PORIUM.—It ought f 0 be the pride of every Phila_ deiphian that at least in one department our city can boast an emporium of trade and manufacture unequalled by any other in the Union ; we allude to the famous old Fur Rouse of Mr. George F. Womrath, Nos. 415 and 417 Arch street. Besides having realized a splendid fortune for himself by his industry, sagacity, .and enterprise, Mr. Wonirath may justly be said to have "placed Philadelphia at the head of all American cities in this important de partment of trade. Of course, his own house continues, and will continue to occupy the pre eminence in the Fur trade; nevertheless, the Fur business of this city owes to him, and acknow ledges, its paternity. An immense capital, the widest and most intimate acquaintance with the Fur dealers throughout the world, and a proverbial integrity in his mode of conducting business, has secured for Mr. Womrath such a patriarchal posi tion in this branch of trellis as has successfully de fied the most pretentious competition on the part of New York houses, And, as we are, now on the eve of the Fur-buying season, we take the liberty of remarking here, that while persons who wish to procure the richest and most costly Furs invariably patronize Mr. Womrath, his present immense and varied stock furnishes also the very highest ir_iduce ments to purchasers of Furs of every grade. His store is now daily thronged by the very first ladies of our city. GREAT RUM TO OBTAIN THE " PLO BENCE" SEW/Na MAClriN . E.'—The new , office In this city for the sale of the " Florence" Sewing Machine, No. 620 Chestnut street, is just now the most at. tractive " new thing under the sun" in Philadel phia. The merits of this noble machine (which, it will be borne in mind, makes four different stitch-es, the lock, knot, double-lock, and double.knot) are being universally acknowledged, judging from the crowds of buyers which daily throng their splendid new emporium. By the way, as this is for many+ reasons the most acceptable machine in use, as a Christmas or New Year's gift, the demand for them between this:and the holidays will be very !great ; and as it will be impossible for the Company to fur nish as many of the various kinds of instruments as will be wanted, unless ordered in advance, we advise our readers to send in their orders to No. 630 Chest nut street, without delay. MAGNIFICENT STOCK OFD 0 VERCOATS.— Gentlemen wishing to supply themselves with this seasonable outer garment, in the very best style, will find their wants anticipated in the most auperb manner by calling at Messrs. C. Somers & Sons, No. 615 Chestnut street, under Jayne's Hall. Their general stock of Fall and Winter Clothing, to suit all tastes and circumstances, is also very fine, and their custom work, made up to order, is unrivalled by any merchant, tailoring establishment in this city. Give them a call. FIFTY-TWO THOUSAND AND FORTY- Two.—This is the number of dollars paid into the office of the city treasurer last week by our citizens, on account of taxes of 1863, etcetera, or about the same figures as it would. take to express the number of tons of coal which passed in and out of Mr. W. W. Alter's celebrated coal yard, Ninth street, above Poplar, since the Ist instant. The enormous business done by Mr. Al ter is attributable to two facts. First, he sells the best and cleanest coal, and secondly, his prices are more moderate. PREPARING FOR VIE CHRISTMAS HOLI DAYS.—It has become a very pleasing practice among the people of Philadelphia to make photo graphic portraits a prominent article in the selection of holiday gifts, and hundreds of our citizens are already acting upon this plan, and sitting for their pictures at the popular ground-floor Gallery of Mr. E. P. Hippie, No. S2O Arch street. For various yeasons, Mr. Hippie's pictures are preferrednow to any others. DELICIOUS ALMERIA GnArns. We per ceive that Mr. A, L. Varmint, the lesdinfr confec tioner of this city, }AN how, In connection with his superb line of French and American confections, and hot house and Tropical fruits, a splendid lot of White Almeria Grapes. These fruits are highly prized for the use of invalids and social entertain ments. A FRESII IN - VOICP.

This is certainly an excellent order, ana it will give many families not only the means of relief for themselyes, but that of sending assistanceto their relatives or friends. Mr. George W. Ford, bounty and pension agent, Dock street, one door below Third, has all the ne cessary forms prepared expressly for the,. purpose . ; and for a speedy collection of claims, call on Mr. Ford.
