The Horrors op Kegel Inhumanity. —A few day a since we published a brief account, relative to the appearance of Union prisoners who had been released from the inhumanity of the rebels. The following rather more extended account has been reoeived by our ; patriotic citizen, Mr. Geo. H. Stuart. The details are painfully interesting: _ „ AAnapolis, Md., Niv. 24,1883, Geo. H, Sfiurrt, Esq,/ . 1 The last boat load of our starved, emaciated, and barbarously-treated paroled men, landed at this wharf on the lSt-h. Uur time has been so mucli -.occupied, that we could not sooner write you the particulars of their condition and appearance. In this lot there were 350 Those who were able to v > walk off the boat, with some one to steady them, were in many cases hatless, shoeless—and we might aay, mostly, where there was anything on them, only covered with rags. Out of the number left at this hospital (about 160) in charge of Surgeon B. A. Van dergriit. nearly, il. not quite, foity (now five days) have died .already.. To day we tried to comfort the heart of a mother, who had satby the side of her only boy forth© last ten ilaj a Sue hurried onfrom Tioga county, 11 1., when abc heard he was here, but only to see a pitiable sktlecon of her once robust ana hearty son. She nursed him night and day, con stantly doing some little act which she thought would strengthen him, and counteract the effects of his long exposure, and the want of nourishment. Bat yeateraay he died In the morning she will start, lonely and Bad, homeward. It is not that these ; ilUlk.S2£&£3, And iWn woauJ- Slfilfft&fiS, £(£ itow to üb. OK no ! many hundreds of our noble boys roe have helped to consign to theit last resting place. But the tnought that starvation brought them to the grave, this is what} brings tears to maoy an eye, and stirs up all the feelings of the heart. Can we restrain our desires for vengeance When we see these men? We try to. But G-od will ,• if pay. He will not overlook the inhumanity and Satanio cruelty of the South. Nothing proves more conclusively that the Confederacy is in the agonies and throes of death. f f We have daily a painful and touching scene to witness in our little chapel. Sometimes there are four, five, and even nine coffins, brought in and placed in-front of the pulpit—?.ud all the remains of these starved ones. On last Thursday, the chap lain being absent, we conducted the funeral csrviocs over nine of these cruelly-treated and cruelly-mur dered boys. Oh, I shall never forget the scene! And we are sure no one present thought it uumanly if tears gathered in the eye of the speaker, and the utterance was choked as the beautiful words of beripture were read. declaring that Jesus, our hope and salvation, was "the resurrection and the life'. ls : There were few dry eyes as the Rev. Mr. Amberler, who had been a prisoner in Richmond, told of the sufferings endured by our men in the " Libby” and on “ Belle Isle.” The coffins were all arranged in a row, in front of ihe pulpit, the American flag thrown over them, ana upoaeach a bouquet of beau tiful flowers, gathered nnct placed there by the kind hearted and noble band of ladles who Are watching at the bedside ol these Buffering men, doing what they can for their relief.. We could only read the names Of five of these men ; four were unknown. They had died on the boat, with two others, as she came from Fortress Monroe. / Five States were repre sented by thoee.whose names were known—namely, J. Lesh, Go. D, IBtk P V. Cavalry ; G.B. Wingate, Co. I), Ist Massachusetts Cavalry ; G-aorge Fugifct, Co. D, 2d Maryland Cavalry. This young man came into our lines from Virginia, and in Washing ton joined the Maryland cavalry. His father and' brothers arc in the rebel army. The others were John Donohue, of 00. I,4th Maine Regiment, and George Shaffer, Co. 1,107fh Ohio Volunteers. The names of lour will never be known. Their friends will long to hear * something of thtem, and will anxiously wait And search the papers for their names, but it will all be in vain. They were not burled, however, by the hands of ene mies. The tears of fmnda were shed At their graves. It was an agreeable surprise as we oame to our room on Saturday evening, after going through the wards, to find the Rev. Geo. Bringhurat there. He spent the Sabbath wlth'us, and preached twice for Chaplain Henries. Our chapel was full, both in the afternoon and evening. Ail seemed to listen With breathless attention to the precious words of „ fife, We trust many were impressed with the im portance of making their peace with God and se curing the favor of our great and eternal Friend through Jeauß Ohrtßt, our’Saviour andßeaemeer. We weie ail sorry he could not stay with us longer,. The record of eternity will reveal that his visit was not in vain- At Camp Parole there is considera ble religious interest. Meetings are held every evening by the men, in the chapel, and we are told that several have c. me out and enlisted on the Lord's eide. We cannot go there as often as we wish. Every day we are looking for some one to come suitable for that post. "We have in our po*sße*aion the likeness of one Of the. unknown bo>a who died on the boat ooming from Fortress Monroe, and also a likeness we sup pose to be his Bister’s. They were found on his per son. Is there any way oy whioh copies of these could be taken and exhibited in different parts of the country 1 The, ineuds might in this way be found, We are not at all certain, but some of the men think Ills name was Buckley,And that he be longed to the 100th Ohio Regiment. ’ we have received many valuable boxes of stores from the Commission lor these men; but any oloth- ing or supplies you may'send will not be too much to meet the demand. W e are looking for more from Richmond. Send us pantaloons, caps, and sAoe£, I am truly and leepecriufiyyours, I. O. SLOAN. The Future of the Democracy.—We learn from an authentic source that a reorganization -of a political party, assuming the name of Demo* cratic, have held several meetings,-and adopted the following as their base of luture operations: Eetiotvtd, That the club i* opposed to the presentun justifiable policy of the present Administration in prose* cutmg the war lor the aboiiti-m ol slavery, the sup pression of liberty, and the subversion of State rights; and we are in favor of an armistice for the pur pose of attempting the re&t oration of the old American l r nion.

' OHW acCorf" ar.ee with instmotioss from the Finance Commit* tec, all oily warrants presented At tbe office of the City Treasurer were endorsed and stamped “in tercat pay able on Ist of March.” The treasury is quite depleted, at least it is not competent to pay the large amount'of warrants outstanding; and in view of this and the increasing indebtedness of the pity, before the next taxes can be collected, there was only one course left to the City Treasurer. Moke Books for the Soldiers.— We have received a fine lot of valuable books, through the kindness of Mr.;F. Clark, from a lady resident of Bridgeton, N.

Counsel in this case commenced speaking to the jury yesterday! but had not concluded at the ad journment oi the court. Supreme Court at Nisi Piius-Judge Read. In. cSfiity. George Oadwalader vs. Henry W. Gault. The complainant, being the owner of a valuable lot of ground at the corner of Twelfth and Master streets, was notified by the Board of Health to fill up a stagnant pool of water thereon, which it is averred he did. Some time after the Board of Health filled up, aB ie further averred, a pool of water on an adjoining lot, and filed a claim in the District Court against the complainant’s lot, to recover the expense of removing the nuisance. Under proceedings on this claim the complainant’s, lot was afterwards sold at .sheriff’s sale, and was bought by the defendant for twenty dollars. He gave no notice to the complainant of his purchase until after the two yearß allowed for redemption had expired. The complainant thereupon filed UU bill in equity, alleging that no nuisance whatever existed on his lot; that he had no notice of the sheriff’s sale, and that they passed no title to the purchaser; Also, that the defendant concealed the fact cf his purchase till after the time for redemption had gone by; but that pending a negotiation by the complainant for the sale of this lot, for which hejhad refused twenty thousand dollars, the defendant for the first time interposed and gave the proposed purchasers notice that he claimed title to the lot, which defeated the tale; that the complainant wa3 still in possession of the lot, paying taxes and exer cising all acta cf ownership thereon; that the de fendant had brought no action of ejectment to establish his title, and that’the complainant, had no power to compel him so to do, and the evidence whereby the complainant could prove that the work was not close upon his lot, depended upon the testi mony of witnesses who might die at any time, and that the defendant threatened and intended to assert his title alter the complainant should have been thus deprived of his evidence. The bill therefore prayed alternatively, that the court would quiet the title to the premises in such manner as to it should seem proper, whether by a decree for the cancellation and delivery up of the sheriff's deed held by the defendant, and declaring the same to he void, or by ordering a reconveyance thereof by him, and if should be in anywise neces sary to the relief prayed, that an action at law might be directed by the court to try and determine the legal rights of the parties to the premises, and that in the meantime the defendant might be re strained by injunction from asserting his claim, or in th e alternative that the testimony of the witnesses should be perpetuated. To this bill the defendant demurred for want of equity. ! • The case was argued by A. A. Outerbridge and William 11. Kawle, for complainant, and by Byron Woodward, for defendant, and held under ad visement, THE POLICE. [Suiore Mr. Alderman Beitler.] Recruiting for Regiments Out of llic Slate. E. W. Smith and George S. Raymond had sepa rate hearings yesterday, on the charge of violating an act of Assembly, providing that it shall not be lawful to recruit in regiments or companies formed in any other State. In regard to the first-named defendant, it was in evidenoe that he had his recruiting quarters in the vicinity of Ninth'and Market streets ; that Levering Minister proceeded there, and was told that he should receive a bounty of $365 byjoiniDg a regiment now being formed in an Eastern State; that his passage would be paid to that place, and if he passed medical exa mination the bounty would be paid to him; if he did not pass, then his passage money would be paid for his return to Philadelphia. In regard to the second defendant, he had his headquarters at Commonwealth Building, on Chest nut street, above Eleventh; that he offered $4OO bounty to each recruit for a New York regiment. Both defendants were required to enter bail in the sum of $l,OOO to answer at court. Reckless Driving. Andrew. Billing was arraigned for driving a horse and wagon at an immoderate speed through the streets. It seems that he endangered the lives of quite a number of persons in ths vicinity of Chest nut and Strawberry streets, and was taken into cus tody by a-polioe officer at the request of a citizen* The deiemlant was held to bail in the sum of $6OO to be of future good behaviour. Allcged Robbery-Money Recovered* James HolUngshead was arraigned, yesterday.af ternoon, on the charge of robbing John Pepiow of the sum of $220, at house No. 1120 South Front street. It seems that when Mr. Feplow went to sleep on Saturday night he wae the possessor of the sum nsmed. When he awoke on Sunday morning he found himself minus: the money. Suspicion fell at once upon the defendant, and he was arrested. On being searched, the sum of $lBO was found upon him, and the further development was made that he had placed Borne- money In possession of another person for safe keeping. This was recovered, and with that found upon the defendant identified by the complainant. The accused was required to enter hail in the sum of $1,500 to answer at court, . Charles Grimes Is the name given by a fellow hailing from New York, who was caught in the en try of the dwelling of Mr. Gulgley, on South street, on Sunday night. When taken Into oustody he was in the act of helping himself to a quantity of clothing. The defendant was committed. [Before Mr. Alderman Hay.] Larceny of a Victorlne. John Carroll waß arraigned yesterday on the charge of stealing a viotorine, valued at thirty dol lars, the property of a young lady who attends the dancing-school at Mr. Campbell’s academy at Eighth and Spring Garden streets. The accused was com mitted to answer. The season for Buck pleasant pastime as instruction in the graceful art of dancing is now at hand. Men and women who have a peon liar penckant tQt stealing everything they can conve niently lay their hands upon, often select such places as dancing academies. Proprietors of such places will, of oourse, make the disrobing room, more than usually secure, and keep a watchful eye upon strangers. Female in Ulaclc. We have several communications respecting a certain female, who, dreesed in deep black, pays muclsattention to funerals, jn order to facilitate the work of petty thieving, even im houses of mourning. A defective informs us that he has seen the same woman at seven funerals within a single week, hut owing to circumstances beyond his control/was not abld to keep her under strict surveillance all the time This kind of robbery was practised to a very freat extent some years since, and it seems to have een revived of late. - Supreme Proceedings. The case of Lizzie Stewart, who was committed by Police Magistrate White, on Friday last, to an swer the charge of larceny of $4.80 from a soldier, at Fox’s Casino, was taken before Judge Read, of the Supreme Court; yesterday morning, Lucas Hirst, Esq., appeared for the defendant. ; Alderman White,' wbb had more than usual inte rest awakened In this ease, because of Itß being taken before the highest tribunal in the State, spared enough time to go to court. The ease was called up by Mr. Hirst. Pending the proceedings, Judge Read asked whether the District Attorney had been no tified. “ Certainly, sir,” replied Mr. Hirst. ‘ “Prove it,” said the Judge. A young man, who feels an interest in thewel. fare of the defendant, was called to the stand. DM. Sou serve a notioe upon the District At torney!” asked Mr. Hirst. - “Yes, sir.’l “Whenl” asked the Judge/ 1 ■ “OnSaturday afternoon.” “ Who is the District Attorney 1” inquired the Judge. “ Mr. William B. Mann,” replied the witness. “Now take oare, sir, what you say,”- said the Judge. “Do you say that you served a notioe upon Mr. Mann, the District Attorney, on'Saturday af ternoon 1” x “ I left the notice at his office,” responded the bay young man. - ■ -“This oase must go over,” replied the'Judge inatanter, Thursday was fixed for a hearing. it wft* understood that the application for the writ had been withdrawn.
