RE RETURN OF THE TWENTY-TIIIRD.—
`The gallant old 23d Regiment, P. V., composed of
Philadelphians, are expected to - arrive in this city
tomorrow. This regiment, in the three-months'
campaign, was under command of Colonel Charles
P. Dare, deceased). It - did yeothan service at Per
ryville, and other places commanding the Baltimore
Railroad. Tke three months' campaign being over,
the regiment re•enlisted for three years, under the
command of the heroic Col, Birney. It is now under
the command of Colonel John Glenn. This regi
ment has been in many battles. At the first fight at
Tredelicksburg it pushed on and drove the rebels
from behind the famous stone wall, and planted the
American flag and the flag of Pennsylvania on the
heights of St. Mary, and gave cheers for the Union.
That was a bloody scene. The word fail was not in
the vocabulary of the 23d. It is emphatically a Phi
ladelphia regiment, and deserving a reception that
will be creditable to the patriotism of the great city
of Brotherly Love. It was not known ' until the ar
rival of the afternoon train yesterday, that the regi
ment was coming. The news was brought by Lieute
nant Frank Taylor, Just from the front. As there
will be little or no time for arrangements, it is sug
gested that General Cad walader order out an escort,"
and that Colonel Ricksrds form his gallant men into
the line of reception.

BUILDING PBum - rrs.—The official account
of the number of buildings erected during the year
1863 will not be furnished for publication before to
day. It will receive attention in ThePreas tomor
row. We have' an account made up from the
monthly tables published in The Press during the
year, but fearing that it may contain some mistakes,
we await the complete official report. We may say
that during the past year the number of buildings
erected was much larger, than any other season for
many years. The great bulk of the houses were
erected in the northwestern section of the city. 'ln
West Philadelphia many beautiful buildings of
brown sand-stone have been !erected, many of them
costing from $15,000 to $20,000 each. That section
of the Twenty-fourth ward, near the Satterlee Mili
tary Hospital, is really worth a visit.
Permits issued for buildings during December,
1863: Dwellings, 104 three-story, two-story, 16;
brew-house, 1 ; dye.house, 1 ; factories, 5 ; stables, 8;

the 95th Regiment P. V. held a meeting yesterday ,
afternoon, at Major 'Berry's, and adopted the pre
liminary arrangements to have a grand reception of
the 95th veteran Regiment, that will be here in a few
days. This regiment has re•enlisted. It started
away in August, 1861, under the command of as
good a man as ever drew a sword, Colonel John M.
Gosline. He was killed In the battle of Gaines'
Va, Colonel Gustavus V. Town, who wag
called to the command, was also killed at the battle
of Salem Heights. Lieutenant Colonel Edw. Car
roll bas command of the regiment. He was badly
wounded at -the battle of Gaines' Mills, but re
covered. The regiment has been in many battles.
It returns with thinned ranks, but with - as brave
hearts as ever beat with Union impulses behind
Union rifles and-muslzets.
A DISAPPOINTMENT.—Nine gentlemen,
representing, the Cooper. shop Volunteer Refresh
ment Committee, proceeded to Washington, D. C.,
on Wednesday, with 3 stand of colors, to be presented
to the gallant 2d Pennsylvania Reserves. On reach

A. Hardie, assistant adjutant general for only three
of the number. The committee declined accepting
these, and with a repeat ful communication, returned
them. The committee took the evening train and
reached. Philadelphia on the same night, bringing
with them the colors that were to have been pre
sented several months since. The 2d Reserves had
been expecting the colors for several months.

obtain the large bounty, as the act of Congress de
clares that it will not be given out after the sth of

regiment they see fit, as Captain Cadwallader is the
recruiting effect for all the Pennsylvania regi

c e u t of- firin&
the old year out was not -forgotten in the suburban

a heavy gale' tdowing from the eastward, accompa
nied with ro. A more disagreeable evening has
not been experienced this winter. There was a
slight indication of snow in the morning, but rain
soon commenced, and the people were storm-stayed.
To RECEIVE THEIR BOlTliTY.—Company
IJ of the 183 d Regiment, P. V., Col. McLean, Capt.
H. W. Graff, is, now full, and the members will re
ceive the city bounty tomorrow. Captain G. is
desirous of continuing his labors until the regi
ment is full. Those wishing to escape the draft and
obtain their bounty to-morrow, should call at the
barracks at once, at Broad and Sansom street. We

have wives and children, have invested the bounty
money in the 5-20 Loan.

CITY COUNCILS_
The regular stated meeting of both Branches of the
Oft Councils was held yesterday afternoon.
SELECT BRANCH.
President Clinnodo in the chair.
The journal of the last stated meeting was read.
Mr. Lynd moved that the words " for the unexpired
term" in the following motion, made at the last meet
ing, "That Council proceed to the election of a Fred, •
dent for the tinexp!red term." be stricken out.
-Mr. Brightly said,that we have no righ; to strike out
that which was recorded in the journal, unless by the
unanimous consent of the chamber.
tiND Said at tie time he offered his resignation be
was . laboring under a severe attack of sickness,' which
has since confined him to the house. What we want in
the journal is the right account of our actions. Motions,
when they are made. should be consistent ones. He
still insisted on his motion.
. . . .
Mr. MILLER said that the gentleman from the Twenty
.F.meond r. Brigt tly ) haa been mousing among the
Journals to find out Amnon:dog. Here.le a matter which
has no bearing w hatever upon anything that will here
after take plEtee. The words are improper and should
not be there.- - For his part, he had. Lot heard those
word! mentioned at the time. '
- - - -
Mr. ZANE said, according to the rules of the Chamber,
we have the- power now to correct the minutes of- the
last meeting. It is not expunging the word's; but it is
making a correction. This must be a material matter to
the opposite side of the Chamber. Some trouble is brew
ing. Theis must be something here to make this the
exception of other cases. similar corrections have been
made in the past, which were not disputed. These
words should be corrected, because it was not the Inten
tion of the gentlemen who made them to do so.
Mr. UHLER said. if this ie nothing. why do the gentle
men on the opposite side oppose it? The very fact of
this opposition proves that there Is something behind it.
That eoznet hing means that the old whale is turning over; 1
and we are now getting a specimen of the blubber.
.111 r. Gnat s•ld he did not want it sepposed for a mo_
mem that he intended to ,etlect upon the clerks of this

The special committee:appointed to investigate into the
charges of corruption against certain members of Council,
in reference to leering the Girard Coal Lands, samoitted
a majmity mid a minority report.
The majority of the committee report that after meant
- zing the committee they gave to the gentlemen named in
the proceedings notice, and resolved -to require the at
tendance before them of all persons who might in any
way be able to shed light upon charges so . erionsly in
volving the character of public officers. and the dignity
and reputation of the Councils of Philadelphia.
At the business meetings held on the 14th day of De
cember, A. D. 1863, the committee was attended by
Messrs. Bulger, Barrie, and Panting, who appeared in
Person, with his counsel, W. S. Price, Esq., and by the
witnesses whose names and testimony appear in the
schedule annexed to the report.
A fultinvestigation was desired, and, therefore, the
largest liberty given in the - way of examination and
cross examination of witnesses. A charge to be the
basis of a proceeding for the impeachment ohs member of
a body like the Councils,of Philadelphia ought not to be
lightly made, and, when - made, -- ought to be so esta
blished as to leave no reasonable doubt on the minds of
-
the-examining-body of the guilt of the party accused.
Acting upon this belief, as well as a desire to preserve
the reputation of our city government, - YVAT committee
proceeded to the discharge of their duties.
In reference to-Messrs. Bolger and. Harris, it .affords
us pleasure to report that the committee are of opinion
that there 1s nothing in the testimony presented to them,
or in the conduct of these gentlemen. in any way to
warrant any charge of corruption, or the attempting to
do anything which would warrant the belief tDRI-41.99_
intended other than the proper discharge of'their duties.
As to' Mr. Panling, the testimony does not enable them
to speak so decidedly in hiacase ; but one witness speaks
or any improper act on the part of Mr. Panling. and the
testimony of that one person teems to have been obtained
by hold routyindncements. Id.l . ek.lte.eleite v n___
- your commitree, therefore, think that his case does not
Present such a clear and undoubted case as would war
ier t us in deciding that he ought to be impeached, and
yet leaves it in such a condition as does not enable Its to
declare that he is blameless Your committee, there
fore, submit to the Chamber the evidence taken by them,
in order that, in relation to Mr. Pauline, such action
may be taken as may seem just and proper.
Resolved, That the committee be discharged from the
further consideration of the subject.

of Committee.
ms...,,oareity report is signed by only two members—
Messrs. Bichols and Barnes—and sums np as follows :
1. That Mr. Panling has been guilty of corrupt prat
tires.
311,670.663
2. That Mr. Pealing solicited $2,000 as a consideration
for thegrantins of a lease of a portion of the Girard Coal
Lands in Schuylkill county.
S. That Mr. Panting received too car-loads of coal as
another consideration.
4. Tb at ffir. Panting - should be impeached.
'5. That the committee find no charges substantiated
against any other member of Councils. -
The resolution attached to the report calla for an im
peachment of Mr. Panting.
Both reports were read. - The question was first taken
upon the minority report; and the resolution attached to
it, calling for an impeachment, was valid down.
The majority report was, then considered, when Mr.
Loremax said that he regretted to differ with the com
mittee in the conclusion to which they had come. He
bad known the member from the Tenth ward for some
time, and entertained for him a high regard, and regret
ted leery much to hear that his conduct required investi
gation. The member from the inlet ward he has known
many years, and was also surprised to hear he had act
ed in the manner set forth in the report of the committee.
The present accusation originated in Select Council. The
facts obtained by a committee of that body were by di
rection communicated to Common Council, which is the
tribunal established by law to prepare articles of im
peachment against members of Select Council for viola,
tions of law. He held that there is sufficient testimony
in the report tubmit,ed to place those members npoa
trial. The members of Common Council act in the capa
city of a grand jury. If probable cause exist it is their
duty to say so. Then the members proceeded against
have an opportunity to defend themselves, and prove
their Innocence, if able to do se. He trusted members
might be enabled to satisfy Councils that they. are not
guilty of the crime charged. Justice to the community ,
and justice to ourselves demand that so grave a charge
should be fully and thoroughly acted upon
Mr. lone-max offered an amen tment to the majority
committee's-repot t, that a special committee be appoints I.
to prepare articles of impeachment against Messrs. Sill
gerund Tattling.
Mr. PEALS moved to aid the name of Mr. Barris as
being implicated with Messrs. Sniger and Panting, but
was subsequently withdrawn in consequence of an ex
planation exculpating that gentleman
The discussion created a lengthy•debate, in which the
characters °aeons Bulger anti Tabling were vindicated
from the charges of corruption referred to.
Mr. STOKELEY finally moved to lay the whole subject
on the table, which was agreed co by the following

Mr. LEECH offered a reso'ution appointing a committee

more Railroad. to ascertain upon whit terms the Gray's
Perry can be obtained for the excitu lye rue of the city.
The CHAIR explained that such a resolution could
have no weight, as Councils would dissolve on Monday.
The resolution was therefore withdrawn.'
. . . .
Mr. WOIRERT then offered a resolution tendering the
thanks of Council to the reporters of the press for the
faithful manner in which they had reported the proceed
ings. Adopted. Messrs. Leeds and. Painter only voting
n the negative.

In retiring from the position which he has so ably and
faithfully filled, he has the best wishes of his fellow
members (without distinction of party) for his long•con
tinued health and happiness.
In urging the resolution, Mr. Gray briefly and quite
eloquently testified to the worth and ability of air. Kerr.
He asked leave, he Paid. at this time, to offer a resolu
tion or thanks to Wilson Kerr. Esq.., for the efficient
and courteous manner in which he has discharged his
duties as the presiding officer of this body; and in re
tiring from the position which be has so ably and faith
fully filled. he has, I trust, won the respect and esteem
.of every member on this floor Although opposed to
him in politics, and having differed with him on many
questions.; I am proud to say that he has executed the
duties appertaining to this responsible position w.th a
fairness and dignity, and has, by his social and Impar
tial course, gained the confidence and best wishervof hie
fellow-members.
Other speeches were made, complimentary to' the re
tiring president, and. the resolution was unanimously
adopted.
Resolutions of thanks were also adopted, complinten•
tary to Philip H. Letts and Isaiah H. B atter, amks, and
Hugh Collins and James A. Taylor, messengers of
Councils. -
In reply to the resolution of thanks, Mr. Haan said:
.Gentlemen of. Common Council:
In your generosity, and in compliance with a time
honored cui.tom, you have been pleased to pass a resolu
tion complimenting me for the manner in which I have
discharged my duty as your presiding °Meer ; for which
"Please accept my thanks. In retiring fro,m'this position,
I assure you it is without ft e least reluctas ce. The only
regret I feel upon this occasion, and. I have no_ doubt it
is felt more or less by every member upon this floor. is
the loss of several of our most useful members . to whom
the public are indebted for their legislative and practical
experience. I refer particularly to the gentlemen from
the Fifth and. Fourteenth wards -one of whom, the gem'
tieman from the Fifth. I have been associated with in
this Ct uncil for nearly seven eon , ecntive years. To the
gentleman from the Fourteenth, under whom I have eat
for upwards of four years, I am indebted. for what
little legislative knowledge I now possess.
Gentlemen who are about to retire, I assure you that
my best wishesgo with you in our retirement to the
walks of private life To those who will remain asso
ciated. with 'km for another term. I would say .to the
that I sincerely hope that their path will not be a thorffy
one. This being the last meeting of the members of this
Connell reminds us that, in all human probability, the
same members will never:meet again this side of the
grave, and it is to be hoped that we will all be prepared.
at that last great day to answer to our names at roll-call
with a proper corttficate .entitling us to a seat in that
home n - 6t made w ith hande. eternal in the heavens,
qilentlernen, I bid you farewell.
' A number of ordinances from Select Connell were con
curred in, and the Chamber , adjourned.

A BIT Or RIMEL Humou.—The Virginia rebels
occasionally enliven the gloom and monotony of
their condition by bits of (acetic never elsewhere
presented. Recently the president of the Virginia
Senate has ordered a special election to be held in
the city of Norfolk to fill a vacancy in the senatorial
representation from that city. The thing is done
with the utmost gravity and apparently in entire
unconsciousness of the existence of General Butler.

restrain the President and Clerk of the Council from re
qr.e.oording his votes, or recognizing him as a

drawn to try the ease adjudging the election to be undue

that be persists in taking his seat, and acting as suck

THE POLICE.
(Before Mr. Alderman Beltler.l
Imposition Fully Developed
A man dressed in the uniform of a United States
naval officer, giving his name as Franklin Henry
Herr, and representing himself as A. D. Herr. of
Flushing, Long Island, was arraigned before Alder
man Beitier yesterday. A pretty-looking young
woman, giving the name of Eugenia Wright, was
also arraigned. The man said he resided until re
cently at No. 44 Clift street, New York. The young
woman said she boarded with Mrs. Schofield on
Marks' lane, near Eleventh street: The following
interesting developments weremade at the hearing:
Samuel Ovenshine, residing in SansOm street, be.
low Eighth, testified that on last Tuesday two
weeks, Mr. Herr came to the house and represented
himself as an officer of the United States navy, and
engaged board there ; he said he knew all about my
family, knew, my uncle and aunt—in fact all my re.
latives ; a few days after
-he came to the house, a
fur cape. breastpin and ear-rings to match, belong
ing to Mrs. Ovenshine, were missed ; no;suspicion
was entertained against the supposed naval officer,
but finally it was determined to watch his move
ments ; about one o'clock, yesterday morning, he
was discovered in the room of Mrs. Ovenshine,
rummaging about, as though on a thieving expedi.
tion; alter which he retired to his own room.
Mr. Ovenshine, who, with his wife, had been
watching the midnight prowler proceeded to the
Central Station, yesterday morning, and related the
facts and circumstances. lt 'was thought that he
must have had an accomplice. Detective Header.
son took the matter in hand, and proceeded at an
early hour to the house and ascended to the room
occupied by the suspected individual. The officer
tapped lightly at the door, to which there was no
response. - -
He rapped louder than before, and a voice from
within said:
" Who's there 1"
"Get up and let me in,"•was the reply.
"Yes, air, in a minute."
"Make your minute short." Another rap, and a
kick at the door.
Yea Mr, yea air, in a minute, I suture you," came
the 'voice from within.
"If you don't open quickly, I'll burst in upon/
you," said the officer, raising his voice of authority.
He listened at the keyhole and satisfied himself that
more than one person was within.
Presently the door was unlocked, and swinging
upon its hinges revealed the wonder.straok hero in
dishabille. He affected to be very polite.
Walk in, walk in sir," said he,
did you wish to
see me ; pray sire what the matter
"Have you any body here with you 7" asked the
" tir, oh, no sir, not all," replied the incon
venienced representative of Uncle Samuel'amavy."
"i'm not so aura about that," said the officer, as
he glanced mound the room, looking behind curtains,
doors, &c.
At last he opened a closet door—out popped hoops.
"Ah, ha," said the officer, " what have we here?
atrange, but true, a young woman.
She was led out from her hiding place, and, with
JosepliSurface, taken to the alderman's office. The
parties were committed. It is thought Par. Render
son will recover some, if not all the articles, stolen
from the house.
A Chaise Driver in Trouble.
Hugh Black was arraigned at the Central Station
yesterday, on the charge of misdemeanor, in inciting
to 'a breach of the peace, at Walnut-street wharf. It
seems the defendant had taken a sailor, who was on
his way to Boston,. tO Walnut street, a few, minutes
before the two-o'clock line started, yesterday after
noon. -
.The sailor , was somewhat intoxicated, and
during the trip, from Front and Christian streets to
the wharf, bumped his head against a pane of glass
of the chaise, and-the brittle fabric was broken. The
driver demanded- $3.60 for damages, whereupon a
pas master of the U. S. navy intert'red, and said that
amount was extortionate. Uther parties interfered,
and quite a crowd collected. A police officer was at
hand. The driver sprang on his box and attempted
to drive away with the sailor's baggage. The officer
arrested the driver, and brought him, horses, chaise,
sailor, and baggage, to the Central Station.
Witnesses were produced to show the driver de
manded exhorbitant pay for the broken glass ; that
he resisted the polies officer; that the glass was not
worth over $2 60 ; that the sailor had money hi his
hand to pay any amount ; that the bystanders would
not -let him pay; and, worse than 'all, the boat
,started, leaving him behind.
---- Tne - ohaiee-drlver was required•to enter bail in the
sum of $6OO to be of future good behavior and to
keep the peace. The alderman ordered the baggage
to berestored.to the sailor and then told him he was
free to go. _ .
•A young MEM, giving.the name Of John RoWland,
was arraigned et the Central Station, yesterday af
ternoon, on• the- charge of being concerned in pick
ing the pocket ofSamuel Gaunt, of Dlullea Hill, N.
J., of the sum of s2t6, about three weeks ago, while
waiting to procure a ticket of admission into the
great national circus. Mr. Gaunt testified that he
went to the...Arent, and on going up stairs to the
f...ams - orfite, was suddenly pushed or crowded by a
party of eight or ten young men ; there-wawa big
crowd of people waiting for tickets; witness sus.
pected the crowd, and tried to extricate himself; he
put his hand 'on-his pocketbook, but suddenly his
' hat was knocked of; his arm raised, and in a mo
ment his pocketbook, with $256 in- it, taken ; -the
young men then went down stairs and escaped..
Q. Was there anything peculiar about •-any of the.
money-7 • . . •
A. Yea,'sir ; there was a $6O note on the City .
Bank of Boston ; it was cut in the 'lower corner in
the shape of a V. •-- .• • •.
Q. Have , youaeen the note since? .
. .
A. Yee, air ; I believe I have seen it,:though, as I
told Chief Franklin, I think the nut has been al
term] a little.
The accused was committed in default of $l,OOO
bail to await a further bearing.
(Before Mr. Alderman Moore.]
A Soldier Beaten almost to Death.
Joseph Thompson and Elias Tucker, colored men,
were arraigned, yesterday morning, •on the charge
of brutally mal-treating. a soldier named- Thomas
Henry, who belongs to the hospital at West Phila
delphia. The soldier, it seems, was drunk and dis
orderly in the streets, and almost ungovernable .He
was taken to the lockup of Fifth district. - The two
colored men were arrested at Seventh and Lombard
streets for dirorderly conduct, and on the way to the
station•house, one of them attempted to cut Officer
having them in custody. These two pri
soner s were placed in the same cell with the soldier.
The place was dark, the soldier quiet. Presently,
loud cries issued from the cell. The officers hastened
there, and, on entering the place, found the soldier
shockingly injured. He had been kicked and stamped
upon, and his lace presented a frightful appearance.
Dr. Hooper was called in to attend the unfortunate
soldier; he considered his injuries very dangerous.
Yesterday morning he was placed in an ambulance,
and_ taken to thle.hospital at West Philadelphia.
The accused were committed to await the result of
the soldier's injuries, the alderman refusing bail.

was in " deep distress" at the death of her husband ;
he was killed in battle, &c., &c. The son of rural
felicity was induced to accompany her to her house,
and when he retired therefromne found himself minus
his watch. The police were speedily on the track,
and recovered the watch. The accused was com
