THE SLEIGIIINII CARISTVAL.—The people
of Philadelphia have been enjoying, sues last Fri
day, what they have not had an opportunity to do
for several years. Sleighing has been conducted on
the most gigantic scale. The heavy and even fall of
anew .iad admirably arranged everything for the
invigorating pastime, and the opportunity was not
allowed to Mule by those who had the means and
were desirous of joining in the general winter ear
nival. From Point Breeze, in the lower amnion of
the city, to the extreme upper limits and beyond
them, the tinklfrg of the merry bells might be heard.
Everybody who could afford a sleigh was out, and
everybody who could not afford a sleigh sighed ar
dently for the cherished pleasure.
The extreme cold which preceded thiefall of snow
had well prepared the ground for its fleecy visitor.
There has been but a slight abatement in the cold
ness of the weather, and so far but little danger of
the snow Melting. and thus spoiling, to a large ex
extent the sterling enjoyments of the occarden.
The sir was keen, yet refreshing, during the past
three days, while the sun cast a mild lustre front
above. AU the city, with its surroundings, seemed
redolent of winter charms The rnow-capp;el house
tops, the whitened throughfares, the mild beams of
sunshine illuminating with varied hues the lively
scene, all lent an appearance of classic beauty to the
'Nay streets and favorite drives. Nleng,lis were here,
there, and everywhere, while ecruutlese numbers of
individuals viewed with interest, not unmingled
with somewhat of jealousy. the pastime of those
who were ei.jov leg the pleasure.
Of course. Fairmount Park, Ridge avenue, and
Broad street were the great theatres for the exhibi
tion of sleighing proclivities. The general mamell
vies of the day might easily be taken in at a glance,
after a stay of a couple or hours in these vicinities.
The Fmk wee crowded to overflowing. One con
tinual stream of sleighs dashed through the drives.
These were laden principally, of course, with fair
freight. Bright clot, peered coque tishly out from
under an array of furs, and handsome beaus sat in
stately Edith:des beside those heart-killing daughters
of creation.
Tailing it all in all, there has been more sleighing
within the ;mat three days and nights than has been
known for many years in this latitude.
EAST TENNESSEE UNION SUFFERERS.
The members of the Corn Exchange Association
held a meeting On Saturday morning, at which the.
Hon. H. C. Taylor, ex member of Congress of East
Tennessee, was introduced by the vice president of
the association, NH.. G. Allman.
Hr. Taylor delivered en eloquent address in refe
rence to the sacrifices made by the Union people of
that section of our country, and their dreadful suf
ferings from want of troth food and clothing. At the
conclusion of his remarks a special committee, con
sisting of Alexander G. CattelL Henry Windsor,
and Henry Budd, was appointed to receive collec
tions for the relief of the destitute people of that
section. Mr. E Harper Jeffries submitted a reso
lution, that the usual annual supper of the associa
tion be dispensed with, and that the cost thereof
be appropriated for the above object, which was
unanimously adopted.
We might add to the above that in all parte of
Philadelphia, during the last six months, we have
heard the working classes say they would at once
give One week's wages to procure food and clothing
for everybody in rebeidom, provided the rebels lay
down their arms. This we have reason to believe
would become general. By this, hundreds of thou
sands of dollars would be subscribed in a single
week.
The present question is one that appeals to com
mon humanity, and there is no noubt that the ex
ample set by the Corn Exchange will be promptly
meaondat by the citizens of Philadelphia.
ARRIVAL OF TROoPS.—The Volunteer
Refreshment Saloons at the foot of Washington
street were kept busy yesterday defiling out provi
sions, &c., to the 2d Regiment Asesachusetts Hea
vy Artillery, which arrived in this city frOin New
Brtutswick earls , in themoroing The regiment num
bers seven hundred and eighty in all, and is
composed of a fine looking and muscular set of men,
who look as if they were able to stand all the priva
tions which a soldier must necJessrily pass through.
About four o'clock in the afnernoozi they marched
to the &Tot i.l the Pnileineivit ' Wilmington, and
Baltimore Railroad, and then took the cars for
Washington.
142 men of the 66th new York, and 132 men of the
59th New York, arrived in this city from Washing
ton on Satuiday. evening. They have received a
furlough, and were on their way home to recruit.
These squads were also entettained at the Refresh
meet Saloons. The committee attached to these
saloons bare been kept night and day, for the past
two weeks, attending to the wants of the soldiers
going and returning from the seat of war, and they
deserve the highest commendation for the unceas
ing labor of love Our citizens should contribute
liberally to the support of these patriotic institu
tions, es the great good which they perform will
prove the benevolence and loyalty of this city of
Brotherly Love.
RETURN OF THE TWENTY-ETBRITI.--ThC
Twenty eighth Regiment reached the city yesterday
on a thirty days' lurloueli. We gave in the Press
on Saturday a detailed statement of the active ser
vices perfoimed by these veterans; from the Point
of Rocks to Lookout Mountain. The regiment
reached the d6pdt at West Philadelphia yesterday
afternoon, w here they were handsomely received by
the Henry Guards, Captain John Spear, preceded
by Birgfeld'a band. The line of march was taken
up, and the veterans were escorted to the Refresh•
went Saloon ; one half were quartered at the Cdoper
Shop, and the other at the Union. Between six and
seven o'clock, last evening, the Henry Guards, hav
ing also partaken of supper with the veterans,took up
the line of march, and proceeded to their headquar
ters, Fifth and Chestnut et eats, where they were
dismlseed. The veterans remained at the saloons. It
is expected that they will proceed to the National
Guards' Hall this monileg, where preparations
have been made to receive them. They, look hardy,
and would have had a very grand ovation if ar
rangements could have been made in time,

ATTRIVITON, DIVISION.—The officers and
men of General BirueVe division, now in the front
of the Army of the Potomac, are about to become
the happy iecipienta of Is pair of time woolen mittens
each, through the friendship of the Means, Bullock,
nomufactcrers of woolen goods. These gentlemen,
by a straightforward policy, have furnished the
Government with enough fabric to clothe the army,
and not a single yard or goods nor a single blanket
has been rejected They are, perhaps, the heaviest
manufacturers in the world, having bad twelve or
fourteen &at-class mills running day and night for
nearly two years past. Their centraota are, of course,
proportionately heavy, but the profits light, com
paratively speaking. Many thousands of dollars
have been given by these gentlemen to aid the Go

The Messrs. Bullock, with a few friend., will start
to. day for tto. purpose of presenting the mittens to

LEGAL INTELLIEtENOPIL
Conriol Common Pleas--J udglNSThOMpaleit
Mintzer vs. Baker et al. In this ease, the trial of
Which , on a feigned lame to test the validity of the
will of the late Adam Mintzer ,a well-known and
much respected citizen of the Northern Liberties,
where he resided the best part of his life, created
considerable interest & short time ago, and which
resulted in a verdict by the jury adverse to the will,
Judge Ludlow, on Baturnay, read the opinion of
the court on a motion for a new trial, granting she
motion.
The opinion is very interesting, as treating Of
What may or may not be considered ,4 undue in
fluence" to procure the making of a will. The ver
dict of the jury In this ease was ag,ainat the will
upon theground that undue influence bad been used
by bill Wif e to procure its execution. We publish it
at length :
We are not surprised at this verdict upon the
first tune, and, therefore, in dealing with this mo
tion we cannot forget the fact that the teats:tor, a
man of no ordinary strength of mind, has, accord
ing to the verdict, indicated a weakness which, to
say the least of it, is in striking continua with his
general character, as developed by the evidence.
.Pfor are we at all surprised at the verdict rendered
upon the second issue for with the materials fur
ribbed to the counsel for defendant by the evidence
in the cause, it is no wonder that ajury responded to
the powerful appeals made to them. It is our busi
ness', as it is our duty, in calm retirement to exam
ine the law and the evidence, and if we believe that
irjustice would be done to the plabUijfarcoreffinifo ftC
law of tee land, unhesitatingly to administer the re
medy. We cannot consult our feelings or passions,
and therefore look alone at the law and the evi
dence.
In examining the evidence, we incline to disregard
all the testimony 40 the cause which bears upon the
period of time antecedent to the execution of the
will of August O. 1649, and for the reason that, by
this will, Dlr. Mintzer not only disposed of his pro.
perty, but BO disposed of it as to disarm all criticism
upon the act ; for, by this instrument, he provides
for each member of his family, and the proposition
is established, beyond all cavil, that at that time he
was not only sane, but was totally uninfluenced by
any One.
Now, if we examine the testimony submitted, em
bracing the period of time between the date of the
will of August, 1849. and the date of the will now the
subject of controversy, we notice three distinct lasts,
which we will state, and apply to them the law as
nettled by our court of last resort.
First. It is a fact that the evidence of undue influ
ence in this case consiats of inferences drawn from
the conversations and acts of the testator and his
wife, and that in out judgment every act and each
conversation of Mr. Mintzer may be explained upon
a theory which excludes even the existence of taat
influence which is legal.
In Dean vs. NagleY. 5 Wright 317, the Supreme
Court declared that Lawful influe‘me, such as that
arising from legitimate family and social relations,
must be allowed to produce its natural results, even
in influencing last wills. However great the WO a
once may be, it has no taint of unlawfulness in it,
and th ere will be no presumption of its actual un
lawful exercise merely from the fact that it is known
to have existed, and that it has manifestly op-rated on
the Parolees mind as a reason for his testamerdary dis
positions. * * ■ It is only when the influence is un
duly exerted over the very act of devising. so as to pre
vent the will from being truly the act of the testa
tor, that the law condemns it as a vicious element
of the testamentary act."
Here, then, is the rule which must be applied to
the evidence ; and, measured by this standard, can
the verdict stand? A man disinherits his children,
and gives powerful reasons why he does so, but as
he has had trouble with them all, every act of hie
villein by the defendants regarded as an "anis w
full' exercise of her Influence. Suppoee that the
testator had given no reason for his conduct, would
any single act of the wife amount to an unlawful
exercise of influence?
We do not intend to say that we would take from
the jury the evidence submitted, accompanied by
other testimony, the want of which will be here.
after referred to, but we do not mean to declare that
the moat serious doubt would arise, as to the pro
priety of allowing a verdict to stand which must
rest upon testimony such as was presented in this
case, and which embraces the period of time above
referred to.
Second. It is a fact that no item of testimony
bears upon the proposed execution of this will, nor
was the subject of a will ever (so Asir as we are in
formed by the testimony) mentioned by the wife to
the husband, either directly or indirectly.
We have searched through and through the ervi.
donee, in the endeavor discover any attempt
made by the wife to introduce the suhject of the
will to the notice of the huaband, but we have
searched in vain. Mr. Mintzer on more than one
occasion did declare that he would put the children
in the power of the wife; but no bvbsenee hag been
produced fending to show any interference by her
in the matter of the actual disposition of the hus
band's estate.
In McMahon vs. Ryan, 8 H., 326. Jude Wood
ward declares, "it must be a pies nt condraint
operative on the mind of the testa or is tue very
act of making the testament." I.u. Dean vs. Ss
giey, 5 Wright, 317, Judge Lowrie declares, "it
is only when such influence is uoduly exerted over
the very act of devising." .11,t the law condamas it,
and in the very last adjudged case upon this sub •
ject, Eckert vs. Flowers, 7 Wright, 62, Judge Stung
says, undue influence "however exercised, must, to
avoid the instrument, destroy the free agency of the
testator af the time when the instrument is matte.”
. . . .
In applying there principles to this case we are
asked to sustain this verdict, when, in point of fact,
no evidence exists proving that Mrs. Mintzer ever
spoke to her husband about his will, or t rat it was
the subject 01 the simplest conversation. It is pos
sible that a case may arise where the efforts of the
wife may have been to conceal every direct attempt
to control the husband, and yet operate upon him
in the very act of devising, but some evidence ought
to be submitted. tending to prove the existence of
this very state of affairs, and it ought not to be left
to mere conjecture. 'to establish such a principle
would be to destroy the power itself, and to render
it not only possible, but highly probable, that in
every case in which the children of a citizen by a
first wife become clic:satiated with a second marriage,
they may defy their father's authority, treat with
contempt the wife whom he had sworn to maintain,
protect, cherish, and honor; and if he asserts his
authority, and requires them to obey his just com
mands, prove these very acts against him to esta
blish his insanity, or the existence Or the "undue"
influence Of the wife. With the adjudged cases be
fore us, we would deliberately fail to do our duty
did we sustain this verdict.
Third. It is a fact that at the trial no evidence was
produced, extending over a period of more than a
year before the execution of this will, which had
any bearing at all upon the question of undue in
fluenee.
Supposing, for the purpose of an argument, that
an unaue influence did exist more thin a year pre—
vious to the date of the will, can a verdict stand in
the total absence often evidence upon the subject for
the period of time above specified?
By the law of Pennsylvania, already referred to,
We influence Mint operate upon the very act of de-
Wring,. in "Eckert vs. Mowers, the court say:
There is nothing which tends to prove that
practised upon her any fraud, that he made any mis•
rtprementatinna, or in any manner constrained her in
June. 1858, when the well 2ves made."
It is true that in that case the evidence admitted
improperly had reference to a period of time ;subse
quent to the execution of the wilt but if the lan
guage of the Court in this decision is coupled with
that used in Dean vs. Hughes and Mc Ylahon vs. Ryan,
it must be understood to establish the broad prinst
ple that evidence must be produced tending to prove
that the testator was influenced in the very act of
devising. In a cause, then, in which we are left
without any evidence upon this Most vital point for
more than a year, ought we to sustain the verdict,
awl especially ought we to sustain it when, by the
. testimony submitted, it is clearly established that this
testator sent for his friends soon after the execution
of the will, read over to them the will, explained to
them distinctly and rationally why he made it, and
when we are satisfied; as was the jury, that this
very testator was a man of sane mind?
It is untecessary to go further. We might Isom.
moat upon principles of public policy involved in
this case, and show how important it is, so long as
the law allows a father to disinherit his children, to
sustain every legitimate act of parental authority,
when causes exist which seem to have influenced
the tettator, and required its exorcise. Sat we for
bear. Possiblymany men situated.. was this testa
tor, might haN e treated their children differently, but
the law devolved upon Mr. Mintzer tae right to de
termine what course be should pursue, and we are
not authorized to establish a cede of morals or a
rule of distribution, but to maintain the law of the
State, which we do now by declaring that the rule
for a new trial must be made absolute.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.
THE MONEY MARKET.
PHILADELPHIA. January 9.1664.
There was more life in all the branches of the money
business to-day. Gold fluctuated somewhat excitedly
for the first time in several week s. opening at 152:fall
ing ,11, and emirs to 152.34 frequently during the day.
Moller was easy. but securities are closely scrutinized.
and strong rates put on. We heard of large balances in
bank at the close, that had to lie over unemployed. The
Sic per-cent. legal tenders have made their appearance
nearly simultaneously with the national-bank currency.
Both clues are well executed and present a handsome
appearance, while the lovers of an easy money market
hailed their appearance with delight. Government secu
rities are strong. as usual, and the demand about the
same.
The stock market was generally dull. There was a
strong movement in Catawissa, which, notwithstanding
a severe hammering by the Bears, who put out their op
tions quite freely, the preferred advanced largely. The
condition of this road, and the promising appearance of
its future, is too good not to be seen and appreciated by
the public. Upwards of nine thousand shares changed
bands, closing, at the last session of the regular Board.
