PrOin'thie table it will he seen that the largest in-
Crease during the half century has been achieved by
the Methodists ; the EpilicOpaliaris and Presbyterians
- being next in order. ..Comparatively, the growth of
the)3aptist denomination has been much less rapid
during this interval, the increase being from 6 to 39,
while that.of the Methodists has been from 5 to '72.
REoravians have remained in stain quo. There Was
csie Moravian church in this city in 1811, in Race
Street, above Second ; there is but one now, and it is
the same, with its location changed to Franklin and
Vine streets. The Swedeaborgians have been more
Obtrusive. From no place of worship in 1811, they
have attained a strength of five churches, while, in
the same interval, the-Unitarians and llniversaltsts
• combined have only expanded from two to live.
Jewish el3 - nagogues have multiplied from two to
seven, and Catholic °burettes from four to thirty.
From the above statement it is apparent that Phi
ladelphians have become a more ehurch.going people.
The numbers of churches in our city now is about
eight fold greater than it was in -1811 3 while our
population is scarcely six times as large, which, con
sidering the fact that churches now are, as a general
thing, much more spacious, is proof that, relatively,
our church accommodations at least have largely in
creased. We will not have the impertinence to in
quire whether this statistical record finds a parallel
in the improved moral and spiritual condition of our
people.
New PASTOR OF THE Tamp REFORMED DUTCH
Calm-am—Since the resignation, some months ago,
of the Rev. Dr. W. R. Taylor as pastor of the
Third Reformed Dutch Church, Tenth and Filbert
streets, the latter has been Servad by temporary sup
plies, and it is with pleasure, therefore; that we are
enabled to announce to-day, that the members com
posing it have called to their pulpit a clergyman upon
whom they have not only agreed with unanimity,
but whose abilities as a learned divine wlll' be a wel.
come accession to the pulpit of our city. It is a
singular fact, that within the last three years the
three Reformed Dutch- churches of this city have
suffered the loss of their pastors, by the latter ac
cepting other positions respectively in Brooklyn,:
New Jersey, and New York; and that, in due
course of time, all three have been oupplied rupee
'lively by clergymen trona these same localities ; the
,plat church having exchanged her Mr. Willits for
Mr. Suydam; the second, her Dr. Berg for Mr. Tab
Drage, and the third, her Dr. Taylor for the subject of
this notice, the Rev. Denis Wortman.
• The latter, who will be installed as pastor of the
church at Tenth and Filbert streets, on to-morrow
(Sunday) afternoon, has occupied the pulpit of - the
Reformed-,Dutch ()hutch on Bushwick avenue,
Brooklyn, during the last three years, with marked
acceptance and fruitful results, and we have reason
to believe that his entrance upon a wider field in
Philadelphia at this time will be-no less auspicious..
The sermon on the installation occasion to-morrow
- will be preached by the former pastor, Rev. Dr.
Taylor ; the charge to the pastor will be given by
the Rev. Mr. Suydam, and the charge to the con
gregation by the Rev. Mr. - NI wage.
REV. MR. WIDERO'S MISSION To Swenrs.
About eight years ago the Rev. A. Wiberg, a gentle-
Inert who had been educated for the ministry In the
Lutheran Church, but who subsequently became a
Baptist, was appointed by the Publication Society
Of the latter denomination to superintend the col
porterage for Sweden. Mr, Wiberg accepted the
arduous and in some degree perilous mission, and
• soon after, with a wife eminently fitted for such a
companionship, and a heart alive to his evangelizing
errand, he set sail for the field of hia future labors ;
With what fidelity may be inferred from the re
quital. There was then scarcely a Baptist church
in all Sweden; today there are one hundred 'and
sixty-one churches, seven associations, and nearly
Mx thousand communicants. In their efforts du
ring these years to raise the standard.of the Gos
pel, Mr. Wiberg and ilia associates have been sub
jetted to fines, imprisonments, and persecutions of
toll kinds without stint. Yet the work has gone on.
Among other labors performed by Mr. Wiberg, du
ring this interval, has been the authorship of a work
Ongiaptism, which has elicited no less than fourteen
reface. He is now on a visit to this country, has
preached several times in Philadelphia, and is awe
kerdng a new interest, especially among his Baptist
brethren, in the great work. to. which he has dedi
cated his life in Northern Europe. The Baptist
Publication Society, at a resent meeting, resolved
to raise five thousand dollars in'behalf of this sig
.n
.
Sio from among its own Members, and a large par
lion of .that - amount was contributed on the spbt,
and it is not doubted that, before the appeal has
been presented before the Baptist churches gene
tally, throughout the country, a much larger sum
will be raised for this eminently-worthy and Chris
tian object. • -
Aaravermany OF THE NOONDAY PRAYER MIMI ,
/10e,—The sixth anniversary of what in the autumn
of 1857 was the great - Union Noonday Businesis Men's
Prayer Meeting will be held on Monday next, the
23d instant, at the usual hour, atthe' Church of the
Epiphany, of which the Rey. Dr. Newton, who has
been a regular and consistent friend and supporter of
this meeting ever since its commencement, is therm
tor. Dr. Newton, it is , announced, will preside
on Monday, and, in accordance with the aim
and usage of the meeting, clergymen and lay
men of all denominations will participate in
the exercises. The fact that this meeting has
been kept alive, even -in its present modified form
and spirit, for six years, is remarkable, and to
this extent, at least, it has sustained its claims to
being " a permanent institution." The Daily Morn
ing Prayer Meeting, at the church of the Rev, T. J.
Shepherd, Buttonwood street, below Sixth, is also
still kept up with about as much vivacity as it has
exhibited at any time within the last four years.
Its.v. W. S. HALL, pastor of the North Baptist
Church, of this city, was recently made the recipient .
of an agreeable surprise. A large number of his
congregation, together with several of his minister
- brethren, assembled and participated in the pre
sentation of a beautiful silver tea service. The pre
sent was timely and deserved, Mr. Hall has recent
ly recovered from a serious illness, and has lost a be
loved son in the battle of Gettysburg. Oae hundred
and nineteen persons connected with this church
and congregation have enlisted in the army.
IT Is SUGGESTED that the Baptist Churches
throughout the land meeting on Thanksgiving Day,
Shall give each a contribution to the Freedman's
Fund of the American Baptist Home Mission Socie
• ty, to be sacredly devoted to the support of mission.
Aries and assistants among the freedmen of the
South.
THE Bev. PHILIP IL MOWRY, of this city, has
received a call from the Mahoning Church, Dan
pine, Penasylvania, - of which the, late Dr. Yee
mans was formerly pastor.
ResioNamort.—The Rev. L.R. Christian has re
'signed the pastoral charge of the North Preeby-
Wien Church of this city, at Sixth and Green
Streets. •
THE BEY. Cu/maces D. Mualtay, formerly of
the Market-street Reformed Dutch Church of New.
York, has received and accepted a call from the.
Westminster Preabyteritat Church in Twenty.
mond street, New York.
Rey. Heraty A. Coos, - late of Providence, has
accepted the unanimous call of the Spring Garden
Baptist Church, of thisleity. Mr. Cook brings with
him an enviable name. We welcome him to the.
Ministerial fraternity of Philadelphia.
REV. WILLIAM SMITH has recently been appoint
ad agent of.the National Freedmen's Relief Associ
ation for Philadelphia and vicinity. He may be
addressed at 966 Hutchinson street.
ELDER HUGH BROWN, one of the pioneer Baptist
Ministers of Ohio, died at his residence in Guernsey
county, is that State, Oct. 25th, in the seventy-fifth
year of his age.
REOPEN/11G OP A CHUROM—The Third.street M.
,E, Church, Camden, will be reopened forlDivine tier
vices tomorrow. It 'has been thoroughly refitted,
And is quite a fine building. Distinguished clergy.,
Men will be present at the opening.
Tax New JERSEY BAPTISTS.—At Bordentown,
N. J., the annual meetings of the Baptist denomina
tion in that State have just been held. For 34 years
this body has had an exiatence, being composed of
all the Baptists in the State, and having for its ob
ject the planting and help of feeble churches. Its
fruit has been abundant—the sum. of $77,000 having
been expended by it in giving aid to 171 different
mission pastors, who have preached 61,624 sermons,
=rule 600,000 pastoral visits, and baptized 3,200 hope
. ful converts.
During the past year it has received and expended
about $2,900, and enjoyed the usual degree of sue.
elms in all respects. The annual sermon was preached
by Rev. Mr. Rollinson, oI Rahway, from Ex. xv,, 3:
t l The Lord is a man of-war." Rev. Dr. Fish, of
Newark, and Rev. S. Aaron, of Mount Holly, de
livered addresses by appointment last year. Reso
lutions upon the state of the country were adopted,
one of which was as follows :
Resolved, That as the war into which we have been
forced is one between freedom and slavery, we know of
no way of terminating it, and desire no other way of
terminating it, than 'by tne utter extlnetion-of slaveryy,
throughout the whole country."
An interesting_ feature of the exercises was an ad
dress by Mu. Vinton, returned missionary, as to
the mission of the Baptists in Burmah. Rev. Mr.
:Wiberg, from Sweden, gave a thrilling account o f
the rapid work of God recently in that country.
THE WESLEvAnn OP ENOLAXD.—The Wesleyan
Missionary Jubilee held in the city of Leeds last
month, showed that the Wesleyan Methodists of
England are neither afflicted by the lukewarmaess
which is complained of in the Established Church,
nor stingy - with their purees. During the series of
public meetings which occupied fa week's time r sub
scriptions amounting to $lBO,OOO were handed in for
church purposes ; thirteen gentlemen giving $5,000
each, it is anticipated that $1,500,000 to $2;000,000
will be rattled from the Jubilee subscriptionsheld
trailtaneously throughout England, and it is anti
,mated that a theological institution will' be erected
near Leeds, for the exclusive training of students to
not as missionariee, besides the establishment of
funds to provide for disabled missionaries, and to ex
tend the missionary Work in India, China, and ebse

OBERLIN COLLEGE.—We have the catalogue for
1863-4. It contains the names of fourteen teachers,
including President Finney, and 91'7 scholars, making
-one teacher to aa students. We do not know of any
other literary institution where the educating force
is so small in proportion of the students ; 21 are in
the theological department ; 122 in the college
classes, including 20 lattice;s6 in the teachers' course ;
271 in the preparatory department; 154 in the young
. ladies' course.; and 293 in the ladies , preparatory
Olishool. The whole number of ladies is 467; or gen.
tlemen 450. It would be a most productive use of
money to give the trustees the means of increasing
the number of teachers.'

NATIONAL AGRICULTURAL INTERISTS.
The Fall Crope of 1803-The Crop of Wheat,
Rye,. and Barley, for 18134-The tamper
and Condition of the Fattening Hogs and
Cattle—The Frosted` orn7The Amount of
Old Corn,
WAEamierroN, Nov. 19.—The following has been
obtained from the Department of Agrioulture :
In the monthly report for September, the amounts
of the crop of 1863 were given. The fall crops of
corn, buckwheat, and potatoes were stated in bush.
ele, for each'State. The estimates of their amounts
were based on their appearance only. But in the
circulars tot October, inquiries - of their amounts
were made, as compared with the crop of 1862, and
upon the returns to -these circulars, tables of these
crops, and of tobacco were made. The amount of
the estimates' for September and October were as
follows : -
• ESTIMATES FOE sinvinnnErt.

452, 440, 123 15,621,705 101,457.121 - 267, 802, 770
These estimates exhibit a remarkably close ap
proximation, and speak well for the system adopted
by the Department to ascertain the amounts, annu
ally, of the leading commercial crops., The amounts
of. these crops for 1862, were as follows;
Corn. Buckwheat. Potatoes. Tobacco.
256, 754,474 15, 722,995 114, 533, US 233, 897, 078 -
SORGHUM MOLASSES.—The-five principal States
of the West for the production of sorghum molasses
are Missouri, lowa, Illinois, Indiana, and Ohio.
Their estimated production last year was 10,203,728
gallons. This year only 6,976,882 gallons, a decrease
of nearly three and a quarter million gallons. The
amount of ground planted was much greater than in
1862, but the frost destroyed the yield.
The annual consumption of molasses and sugar
prior to the war was about 45,000,000 gallons of
molasses and about 1,000,000,000 pounds of sugar,
the amount per each inhabitant, slaves excluded,
being 39 pounds. The increase of the consumption,
of sugar in the United States since 1510'was 237 per
cent., whilst the increase of population was 63 per
cent. The Louisiana cane sugar, this year, will not,
it is supposed : exceed 30,000 to 50,000 hogsheads ;
and since the country must rely upon heavy im
portations to supply its wants, new modes to supply
its own sugar and molasses must be adopted by the
Country ; and hence the monthly report for October
very properly directs the attention of the public to
the great importance of the first experiment, now
makinghy the firm of Gennert Brothers, of New
York city, at Ohatworth, Livingston county, Illi
nois, to grow the sugar beet and to manufacture
sugar from it.
TDB FALL CROPS Non 1564.—The wheat, rye i and
barley crops, just sown, are full average crops, both
in amount and appearance. The fall weather has
been highly favoraole to them, and the correspon
dents of the Department speak of them most encou
ragingly.
TDB NUMBER AND CONDITION OF TEM FATTEN,
IN° Hoes AND CATTLE.—The hog cholera scarcely
exists in the eastern and Middle States, but in In
diana and Illinois it prevails in so many counties
that great danger exists of its spreading among the
fattening hogs. In these States a large number of
hogs have died of this disease- during the summer
and fall. The number of hogs in the great feeding
States of Ohio,Michigan, Indiana, and Illinois is
two-tenths less than last year, causing , a reduction
in the number fattened in these States of 806,139.
Their condition in these States is still lower, being
30 per cent. below a general average. It is believed
that but few hogs will be sufficiently fattened to
make mess pork of or to produce a supply of lard.
The exports of the animal productions of the
United States are shown in the report to be as fol
lows ; 1860, 24,766,795 Its ; 1861, 27,715,392 ; 1862,
42280,906.
The amount of pork which entered
Into the commerce of the country in
1560 was about - , 323,358,800 lbs.
Of which there wag exported in the
form of bacon, lard, and barreled
pork 46,009,0051tg,
Leaving for domestic consumption.... 236,449,795 iba
Of which the Southern States t00k,.. 184,386,409
Leaving for the consumption of East
ern and Middle. States .
- - - - -
The cessation of commercial intercourse between
the loyal and'disloyal States cut air this Southern
consumption ofpork, and so reduced prices in 1362
that the foreign demand increased in that year to
291,056,665 pounds.
THE VALUE OF FROSTED CORN for fattening pur
poses is regarded as very small. Hogs and cattle
Will grow on it, but not fatten. The amount of old
corn is much reduced by the demand far it during
the summer by the army. In Pennsylvania, Ohio,
Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, Missouri,
and. Wiscon
sin there is 30 per cent. less than last year, and 20
per cent. in lowa, It is fed out to stock in nearly
half the counties of these States.
THE MONTHLY REPORTS OF THE CROPS FOR
SEPTEMDER of the Department received a very ge
neral notice, and a commendation that is gratifying
to the Commissioner. The report for October, now
printing, conflrraS him in the utility of the plan
adopted for the monthly collection of statistics of
the crops.

Southern Yankeeism.
From the Halifax Citizen.
Says the bitter Polish proverb,- "Flay a Russian,
and you will find a Tartar beneath the skin." It
very forcibly indicates' the Russian Characteristics,..
a thin mask of superficial civilization which can
scarcely conceal the raw barbarism within.
We fear that it may be almost similarly said of
some of the Southern statesmen, that if the Con
federate coats vere taken off them they would show
like Yankees in their shirt sleeves. Mr. President
Davis was the right hand once of a Federal Ad
ministration. .His right hand, it would seem, has
not forgot the Yankee cunning it then acquired. As
Secretary of War to Buohanan'e Cabinet, Mr.
Jefferson Davis was rather too fond of humor
ing a strong point in the Yankee character by
snapping his fingers saucily in the face of Bri.-
tain as frequently as ibwas safe to do so. It used to
please the mobs immensely; and, though Yankee
and Yahoo were probably synonymous in Mr. Davis'
secret thoughts, he had still something to gain from
keeping the Northern masses good-humored iq . this
way, till the day when the plans laid by himself and
his Southern colleagues should be fully ripe
for execution. He entered with all that offi
cial zest for sharp practice and slippery di
plomacy which is thoroughly active in Washing
ton, into the selfish and unscrupulous schemes
deemed necessary for the progress of the Republic,
though he looked none, the less for the day when
he could turn Ids back on the Republic forever. The
day did come, and. Mr. Davis shook the dust of
,Yankeedom from off his departing feet. We fear he
did not look so well to his hands. The pitch he had
been touching all - those years had, doubtless, more
or less defiled them. lie and his Secession leaders
had consorted With the North so long that they be
came, whether willingly or inadvertently matters
little, knowing in much of the naughtiness of then
Northern manners they affected to despise.

A Busy. DAY IN fiI.BRY PRISON.—Lieut.
Babb, writing from Libby Prison, speaks of the re
ception and distribution of stores from the Christian
Commission. Colonel Powell distributed part in the
hospital of the prison. Lieutenant W. F. Randolph;
6th United States Artillery, assisted by Lieutenant
Colonel White, of the 67th Pennsylvania 'Volun
teers, distributed in the prison. A busy day, he
says, it was in Libby. The monotony of prison life
was broken, the gloom cheered; the gladneSs and
gratitude were very great. . -
In answer to an 'inquiry as to the refusal of the
rebel authorities to receive goods sent by the
Christian Commission, for the relief of the Union
prisoners, the following telegram was received : -

BEWARE or Tivr..—A • well-dressed, mid
ele•aged woman, has lately been committing a num
ber of depredations upon our shopkeepers. She re
cently made an attempt of this kind In the retail
department of Sharpleas Brothers, Eighth and
Chestnut streets, but was unsuccessful, excepting in
the matter of escaping arrest. Within the past
week, also, she attempted a similar experiment at
the Fur department of J. W. PFoctor IS Co., No. 920
Chestnut treat, in an effort to secrete a three-laun
dred dollar fur cape under her cloak. But here,
again, the vigilant eye of a salesman frustrated her
scheme, although, to the mortification of the pro
prietors, she was allowed to retire without the es
cort of a police officer. We mention these facts -in
order that storekeepers may instruct their clerks to
be on the lookout for -this dangerous class of Cus
tomers. •
Ercerturmnio—We notice in the advertise=
meats in The Press that Captain C. N. Cadwallader,
recruiting officer, has his headquarters at 611 Chest
nut street, where all persons who desire - to serve
the country, now in the hour of need, should call and
take the preliminary . steps. Recruits are wanted
for artillery, cavalry, and infantry regiments. The
applicants will receive the largest bounty offered by
the Government. Now, of all other times, the 'pre
sent is the most important. The Government want
men. A handsome response, such as the Govern.
meat would like, would be of more real benefit than
a battle. Every inducement is held out by Captain
Cadwallader, and the engagements will be scrupu
lously adhered to.
LIBRARY FOR PAROLED PRISOITERS.--The
following illiblishers and booksellers, of this city,
have made liberal contributions of books, through
the United States Christian Commission, for the pur
pose of forming a library for the paroled prisoners at

Society.
FOUND DEAD.—The body of an tinknown
man was found dead in bed yesterday at the public
house of John Colligan, No. 222 South Front street,
where he had been lodging for several nights past.
The deceased was about sixty years of age, had
gray hair, and was dressed in a light gray suit of
clothes. A paper, with the name of John MciDar•

an empty.bottle, labelled laudanum. Ms supposed
that he committed suicide. Coroner Taylor held an
inquest on the body, but no facts were elicited.
DEATH OF A MERCHANT.—Mr. Edward
A. Palmer, a provision merchant, who has been en
gaged for many years past in the provision business
on• Water street, below Market, died very suddenly

Richardson, Spence, & Co., have announced their
intention. of running a line of first clasesorew steam
ers between Philadelphia and Liverpool shortly, to
supply the place of the sailing packets which have
lately been withdrawn. This forward movement is
an excellent one, and the commercial 'interests of
our city will, no doubt, be greatly benefited thereby.
DE. Bownx, of Tennessee, will deliver
him lecture on "Union and Emancipation," on
Tuesday evening, December let, at Concert Hall.
We aze glad to learn that it is a free lecture. It is
suggested the same gentlemen having charge of this

Setting Up a Game of Chance.
Horace F. Ingell and Elizabeth Edwards were ar•
reigned at the Central Station, last evening, on the
charge of misdemeanor. They were arrested by
Messrs. Lemon, Henderson, and Bartholomew. - The
following is a brief of this case : Mr. ITU is the
Misled proprietor of a small show of wit animals,
stereoscopic views, &C., in Market street, all of
which are, perhaps, naturally interesting. The
sound of a hand•organ and large transparencies on
the front of the house attract the attention of
passers-by, and quite a number drop in. Among
other curiosities inside is a device set up known in
law as a game of chance. This is superintended by
Mrs. Edwards. The prizes to be drawn are jew
elry, watches, fr.c. Everything
_seems to be so
easy that many are induced to try their tuck. Among
this class were two little girls, who make a living at
a steamlaundry. They saw several young men
draw gold watches, by taking a quarter-dollar
chance. These little girls " hankered " after a
watch, paid their money, and drew shirt studs. They
tried a second and a third time, and were equally as
unfortunate. Several soldiers yesterday tried their
luck, and one of them spent as much as seven dol
lars, and received quite an assortment of studs, fin
gerrings, earrings, breastpins, sleeve-buttons, &e.
One or two young men drew watches, every now
and.then, and this induced others to try another
chance. As the revised penal code provides that
such games of chance are illegal, the arrests were
made. The accused were held to bail in the sum of
$BOO each, to await a further hearing on Monday.
Fully Identified.

The two individuals arrested a few days since for
stealing some pieces of cloth from the tailor store of
Mr. Robert Dunseith, on south Eleventh street, had
a final hearing at the Central Station yesterday af.
ternoon. They were Tully identified by several wit-
nesses, one of whom heard the expression of one of
the defendants to the other: "Sling it; sling it,"
meaning throw the goods away, "We are watched,"
The accused were committed to answer.
A Laity Robbed.
On Wednesday morning a man having a bad coun
tenance, as any one may see by his photograph in
the thieves' gallery, took boarding or.hiciging at a
regular boardinghouse at No. 11 South Seventh
street. He paid in advance for two days. On
Thursday evening one of the boarders missed from
her bureau drawer a pair of bracelets, a diamond
ring, and a plain ring. The trunk of another lady
had the lock broken. Another lady, having occa
sion to go to her room, found some one inside hold
ing the door. She went away, and the insider
shortly after this came out. Subsequently, the
boarder went into another room, and finding a co-
lore d servant there, he excused himself byasking
"if George had gone out." The colored woman did
not know George. The inquirer. then went away,
and was joined by a strange woman in the hall.
The lady who was robbed did not miss her jewelry
until eight o'clock on Thursday evening. Sus
picion at once fell upon the strange boarder, and the
attention of Officer Orout, of.the reserve corps, was
called to the case. At eleven o'clock on Thursday
night he proceeded to the room of the stranger and
arrested him. A pair of " nippers," a convenient
instrument by which a person. may turn a lock key
from the outside, and
,a number of dead-latch keys,
were found in hie keeping. He was, therefore, taken
into custody. Yesterday afternoon the strange
boarder was arraigned at the Central Station, where
be was identified as William Hughes, who has
served out a term or two in prison for thieving. He
is noted by the police for a strong Propensity to rob
drunken' people, which; in the profession, is con
sidered the meanest kind of robbery. He was com
mitted to take his trial.
A woman, named Maria Smith, was arraigned
yesterday morning - on the charge of picking the
pocket of a medical student, on Thursday night, at
Tenth street and College avenue. He alleges that
he boat one hundred dollars. Maria denied the state
ment in the most emphatic terms, She was coin•
witted for another hearing.

John Taylor, an old man arrested some time since
on the suspicion of having been engaged in certain
robberies at Aramingo 11Sffir, was arraigned on
Thursday evening, at Frankford, on the charge of
being the principal in the robbery of the Tacony
Mills of Mr. Baird, that took place several months
Since. He was committed in default of 2,600 bail to
answer.

The United States vs. John and William Bonier
shine. Indictment for enticing a soldier to desert,
&c. It appears, from the evidence on behalf of the
United States, that one Ferdinand Bomershine, son
of one of the defendants, and brother of the other,
enlisted as a private , soldier in the organization
known as the' Curtin Light Guard," in the month
of February,lB62 ; that on the same day he was
sworn into the service, received part of his clothing,
and the premium of two dollars allowed for an am
cepted • recruit ; but that he failed to appear as
required at the barracks or camp, and, in fact,
never did appear, having, as was believed,
_left the city. Several rdonths ago, he re
turned to his father's house, and a short time
since Provost Marshal Lane sent two police officers
with verbal directions to arrest Ferdinand as a de
serter. They proceededl to Bomerahine's house and
stated their business. Be demanded their authority
to make the arrest, which they not being able to
produce in writing, an altercation ensued between
the officers and the two defendants, in the midst of
which the alleged deserter escaped, and has not since
been heard of. Counsel for the United States not
being able to prove knowledge of the fact on the
part of defendants that-Ferdinand Bomershine wad
a deserter, and proof of this being essential to se
cure a conviction, they abandoned the case, and the
defendants were discharged.

`. HOMICIDE CASES.
The jury in the case of Henry Young, charged
With the murder of Ewa McCrea came in yesterday
morning with a verdict of not guilty.
Emma Burke, colored, charged
with the murder
of Lewis Peterson, also colored, on the night of the
25th of July last, the instrument used being a butcher
knife, was placed on trial. Two wounds were in
flicted, one in the region of the"stomach and the
other just above in the cheat, either of which was
mortal.
The Commonwealth proved the killing by the pri
goner beyond a reasonable doubt. The defence,
howelier, was sthat the prisoner acted in selfde•
fence ; that deceased was beating her with a stick`
and chased her into the street in her night- clothes,
and that to save her life, or prevent the deceased
from•indicting upon her great bodily harm, site used
the :weapon. The jury were out but a short time
when they came in with a verdict of not guilty.
*Jurors were then- discharged, and the Court ad

ty.one cases were tried during the term, the smallest
number tried for any term since the present district
