The Steamship Liar —Yesterday after
noon ad adjourned meeting of merchant* and other*
favozable to the establishment of a line of oceaa
atesmrr* between thia port and Liverpool was held
at The office of the Pennsylvania K&ilroad
««»» Frederick Fraley, E*q, oocupiad the clitir.
aTt. Lorin Blodget, secretary of the Board of
Trade, addressed the meeting in reference to tae
antjtct. He said that the decline of American
commerce wai, especially since ihe breaking out oi
the rebellion, of a moat tearful character. He had
recently been to Washington, and had an opportu
nity of witnessing!from the records, the htoroiag
cat-cellization of American ships. They have left
out own ports for China, Austrlia, and other ports,
and seldom have returned »« they went out. They
sir registered for the benefit or other nations, and we
were every day becoming losers. Pour times the
amount ol merchandise i* cow shipped from our
own shores in foreign bottoms than in American,
•up th#-Te was every prospect that in 1865 the ratio
-would still further increase. The proportion of mer
chandise exported as well as imported was until re
cently four times as great ia American ships as taat
in foreign ships. Now these proportions are re
versed. In 1863 the proportion carried in foreign
veuelx wu three times as great as in Amoricaa ves
sels, and in 1864 it would neat least five times as
great in our commerce with Europe. Ia 1858 Phila
delphia exported only $607,350 in foreign ships;
while „ln 1863 [the sum was $6.057,685—ten times as
much. With the export trade almost wholly in oar
hands six years ago and for all previous years, it is
now almost wholly out of our hands. Audot the
import trade of this port, which was ten millions ia
American vessels to one in foreign vesaela, the
proportion remaining to us in the Hat half ot
1864 is but about oue-teath —tnreo jhuadred thou
sand dollarsoutof three million. It was a situate that
our commerce should be conducted by
tspccifui} as we have the ability to do ifc ourselves.
It was time for the people to awake, and no longer
sutler their interests to be jeopardized by permitting
all our carrying trade to f*u into the hands of other
nations. The movement to inaugurate a steamship
line between Philadelphia ami Europe, that shall be
entirely American, was one deserving the support
of every Philadelphia merchant
JUr. <ieorge L. .Buzby said that this was a deplo
rable state of affairs for nu American citizen to con*
template- It was lime that the people should be
aroused to the perils of our commerce. Let them
be impressed with the conviction that it is abso
lutely necessary to have a home commerce, and
then will we of Philadelphia secure the long-desired
object of having a line of steamshins to Europe
which shall be owned by Philadelphians. A foreign
firm bad already commenced a soinme to run steam
ships to this port, but it would be no credit to our
merchants if they could not themselves support
such a line. *
Mr. John C.Cretson said that, as a Philadelphian,
he was aoxious fur the restoration of our com
merce. and he regretted very much that so respect*
able » body as the Corn Exchange Association
should have endorsed the foreign firm who are about
to run a line of steamships between Philadelphia
and Europe. That body would be among the drat
to sutler it foreign capital should oontrol our com
merce.
Mr. E. C. Pechln also addressed the meeting. He
stated that the Committee on Publication had en
deavored to procuie tr.e sympathies of the news
paper press, and had been partially successful. The
intelligent editors of the Philadelphia newspapers
were not long in observing the justice and necessity
of advocating an Ameticau ime of steamers as
against a foreign line. The speaker said that at this
stage, when the project was su ue «r success, it would
be saddening if it would have to be abandoned as a
failure. As a practical start, he would he one or
twelve gentlemen who would r*i«e .$25,000 e»oh.
Mr. Duzby moved that a committee be appointed
to prepare a oirouJar to be Addressed to the citizens
of Philadelphia, giving a brief synopsis of the enter
prise, and its value. Aib pted. • . _
j,Xr. Pechm further stated that It might be of in
terest to the meeting to know that he had been in
foimei that the Leglslatme of the State were
laxorably disposed 10 aid the company in procuring
such aid as it would bo iu their power to give.
The meeting soon after adjourned.
(Ju.uimans of tub Poor—The stated
meeting of the Board of Guardians of the Poor was
held ycateiday aiternoon, President Dickenson in

and memorializing Councils for an appropriation of
$6,314 for that purpose.
j>ir. Lee was opposed to increasing salaries, and
offered an amendment that the subject be recom

ami irp«rt whether it la advisable for this Board to

abled in the field, to be employed in the various

Runaway and Accident.— On Sunday
evening a deep hole in Passyuuk road, a few feet
below Federal street, caused a pair of fine horses to
run away. Messrs. Sharkey and Schuyler, deputy
United States marshals, and two other gentlemen
were in a light wagon. Owing to the darkness the
wagon went into the hole hub deep, the bolt which
connected the tongue or pole to the body thereof
parting. The horses thns having a free rein'ran up
the road to South street, thence towards the Bela,
•ware, accelerating their speed every moment. For
tunately, the animals were stopped by Mr. Dominick
Bradley. The wagon was broken to pieces, andiMr.
Schuyler was somewhat injured. The Highway De
partment, of course, is to blame. The supervisor of
the diatiiet must have known the hole was there.

Mr*. Elizabeth Wright sworn.—l keep a public
house on Second street, below Wharton; the pri
soner was in my house on Friday evening, between
eleven and twelve o’clock, and again ou Saturday
morning, between one and two o'clock, when the
house was shut and he left; no one was with him*
he spent no money, neither did he drink anything*
remember several soldiers being iu the house during
Friday evening, but no one in particular. *
Mr. Ulmer sworn.—Keep a shoe store at‘No 813
South Second street; Ford came into my place
about half peat nine o’clock on Friday night, in
company with a soldier and another young man,
dressed in citizen’s clothes; the soldier wanted to
buy a pair of light shoes, as he was going to a shin
dig ; Ford got a twenty* five cent note from the sol
dier and started over to Mr. Devitt’s, for the pur
pose of purchasing, as he said, a pair of stockings,
which he soon after returned witn ; a pair of boots
were selected And paid for; they then started out.
A pair of new boots were shown the witness, but he
could not reccgDize them.
Wm. Henry sworn.—Know the prisoner .by sight;
the last time I saw him was about 11 o’clock on Fri
day evening, on Second street, below Wharton; he
was in company with a soldier and another man
who was dressed in black clothes, whom he oouid
not recognize: he could not say whether they went
in Mrs. Wright's tavern or not, as he did not turn
around to see.
Mrs. Wright was again sworn,—To the best of my
recollection Ford did not come in tbe house with a
soldier; there were some three or four soldiers in
my house the same evening.
Mr. Stephen Girard sworn.—Know the prisoner :
saw him last between 2 and 3 o'clock on Saturday
morning standing opposite my house, which ia at
Front and Hazel streets; again saw him about half
past 6 o'clock in the same place; the house is abont
five hundred yards from where the dead man was
found; saw Ford and two others go into a dance
house near by; heard quarrelling in the house;
some voices sounded like soldiers; the noise kept me
awake for some time.
Mr. Grover sworn.—Live in Churoh street, below
Morris; about 6>v o’clock a gentleman oalled me
to him and said there was the dead body of a soldier
on the lot near by; I went there, and fouad him
lying between two logs, all cramped up, about fifteen
feet from tbe curbstone; a yellow subatauoe was
flowing from his mouth, but could not deteot the
smell of it; 1 straightened him out, and placed his
hat. which was lying about two feet from him, un
der his head; a man who was there at thessme time
put bis hand in one of the pockets of the dead soldier
and pulled out a paper with six or seven buttons in
it: this was all the searching that was done in my
presence.
Mr. Devitt sworn.—About half past nine o’clock
on Friday night, the prisoner came into my store
and purchased a pair of stockings. He appeared
very familiar, although I never saw him before. A
pair of stockings belonging to the deceased were
then shown the witness, but he stated that they
were not tbe ones the prisoner purchased.
Mr. Robert Jackson sworn.—Reside No. 209 Dick
erson street: about 11 o’clook on Friday was coming
down Wharton street, and when near Second, I met
Gui. Ford in company with a soldier and another
man* They went into Mr, tavern. The
soldier hesitated at first, but finally went iu; know
him by sight, but not to speak to.
A I*o named Etlmtnl Uornon waa then .worn.
He raid : 1 know the j.rlaoner by .ijfht. never
.poke to him: between b and e>* noluckon s»tor.
day morning, n» I wa. opening the door ofthe store
where I woik, on Worn, afreet, below Church, I
»aw him pan by; he was coming up Churoh street j
this is about a half square from where the body
was found i saw no one else about at the time; he
was dieased in a blue blouse, light pants, and high
crowned JCoßsuth hat.
Ford then stated that he was not at the dance
that evening, as one of the witnesses stated, and
neither.diil he know the dead man nor the third
party who was present. The soldier came up to
him and asked him where he might buy a pair of
shoes, and he told him. He also denied the state
ment madp by the boy as to his seeing him between
6 and 7 o’clock on Saturday morning. He said that
he went to bed about half past four that morning,
and did not get up till nine.
Mrs. Mary Carr sworn.—Reside in Tasker street,
below Front ; while in my room, shortly after eleven
o’clook, I beaid a noise on the pavement outside, *
as if two men were in liquor and quarreling; heard
one say something about killing the other; in a few
minutes after they proceeded down Church street;
she did not think there were more than two men
present; could not distinguish theirfaces on account
of the darkness; she could not recognize the voloe
of the prisoner as being either of the ones she heard,
Mrs. Ann Kelley sworn.—Reside atCnurch and
Tasker streets, which is about a half square from
where the dead body was found; between Hand 13
o’clock, on Friday night, heard a noise as if two
persons were running past the house; raised the
window, bat could not see any one about.
No more witnesses were examined, and the case
was postponed till this afternoon, when it will be
held at the same place. The supposition is that the
liquor which the deceased drank contained a sub
stance which brought on congestion of the brain,
resulting in his death. Other witnesses will be
examined to day, wbieh may throw more light on
the subject.
Steamship Jupiter.— ln our remarks
yesterday we stated that the steamer started from
John K. Hammett’s screw-dock,.Kensington. We
should have said John H., the son, the senior Ham
mett, a well-known ship builder, having long ago
retired from active life. We also omitted to thank
Captain W. J. Clark, late of the bark Meaco, for
his nautical the river and its shoals, of
which no sailor or pilot in our waters has a more
extended knowledge.
The Dana Troop.—Lieut. Clark, of the
Dana Troop, with other dffloers, is engaged in re
cruiting for this troop, otherwise known as the 21st
Pennsylvania Cavalry. Some of the best men in
the country, so far as general Intelligence, educa
tion, and powers of physical endurance are con
cerned, may be found in this military organization.
Public Reception.— Gen. Meade will
have a pubiio reception at Independence Hall at
noon today. All penons who desire to ahake the
hand of the hero of Gettyaburg will have an oppor
tunity.

How Von See It, Now Von Don't.
A man pretty well advanced in years, named
Samuel Dee, was arrested, yesterday, by Officer
Smith, of the Sixth division, on the charge of set*
ting up a game of chance. The paraphernalia of
such an institution as this consist of a sweat cloth,
figures, dice, and boxes, and an ingenious contriv
ance, knowngas the “ little joker,” or “now you see
it, now you don't.” Thedelendant was bold eaou gh
to set up the game at Seventh and Market streets.
He was required to enter ball in the cum of $BOO to
answer.
Tire Recent Highway Robbery.
A second and final hearing took place yesterday
afternoon, at the Central Station, in the oase of the
two iuU-grown boys, McGoldrick and Curren,
charged with highway robbery. Evidence was ad
duced by a small lad who saw the defendants in com
pany with each other, in tbe vicinity of the place
of iobbery, and about fifteen minutes before it was
peipetrated. It will be remembered that at the first
hearing Mr. Clinton, who was knocked down and
robbed, positively identified MoGoldriok as one of
the party. The defendants were arrested while
playing cards, In a tavern, with each other. The
accused were committed in default of $2,500 each to

The three young men arrested about two weeks
since on suspicion of being concerned in the at
tempted robbery and blowing open of the fire-proof at
the counting-house of Mr. Mcllvaine, at Thirty
fourth and Market streets, had a final hearing at the
Centra! Station yesterday afternoon. All the wit
nesses failed to connect the defendants in the rob
bery. The accused were subjected to a pretty search- *
ing examination by the magistrate, from which it
seems they came from New York recently, alleging
they desired to find employment in Philadelphia*
The police officers are somewhat divided in opinion
as to the party. AU believe them to be thieves; but
whether they operated at the Cathedral or Chestnut
street Theatre, is involved in some doubt. There is
a man already in prison on the charge of being con
cerned in the Cathedral robbery.

Supreme Court at Nisi Prlns-Jmlge 'Wood-
The February sessions of the Nisi Pxius for jury
trials commenced yesterday.
Antoni Hecbt vs. Henry Miller. This is an action,
to recover damages for breach of promise of mar
riage. The defendant is the proprietor of the well
known lager-beer saloon on Vine street, between
Franklin and Eighth streets. The plaintiff is the
widow of defendant’s former partner in carrying on
the business of selling lager beer. The allegation
on the part of plaintiff is that defendant, soon after
the death of Mr. Hecht, paid court to and promised
to many the widow. According to the testimony
for plaintiff, this promise was unreoalled and unre
voked for several months, when, in an unhappy
hour for plaintiff, Mr, Milter became acquainted
with a more youthful and perhaps lairer lass,
whose blandishments he could not withstand. In
fact, If ever he bad promised to marry plaintiff, he for
got his promise, for he married the younger lady.
As matter of defence, it was denied in the first
place that Mr. Miller had ever promised to marry
the plaintiff. Also, that the habits of plaintiff
were such, she having become intemperate in drink,
as to render a refusal to carry out a promise of mar
riage, If such had ever been made, justifiable* The
testimony in regard to intemperate habits on the
part of plaintiff was contradictory, some of the wit
nesses testifying that she was drunk during the time
this promise was alleged to have existed two or
three times a day, and by others quite ss positively
that she was a well-behaved and temperate woman.
The ease was not concluded when our report

John R. Dock was tried yesterday on a charge of
burglary. The case presented some ourious features
as to a question of identity. Dock, who is a man of
stalwart frame and marked features, was arrested
on a charge of having been concerned in the robbery
slew weeks ago of the altar service, consisting of
candlesticks, etc., belonging to ihe Cathedral at Lo*
gan Square. The thieves, whoever they may hare
ten, were discovered by the police when about get-

ting away with their plunder, and were put to flight.
Among those thus escaping, according to the testt«
mony of an officer who attempted to intercept his
flight and eeourc his arrest, was the defendant. The
latter got away, and was only arrested subsequently
at his own place. The policeman swore positively
yesterday on the trial that defendant was the man
he b&w running from the plaoe of robbery and trlel
to arrest. The hour fixed by the witnesses for the
prosecution as that of the robbery was about 12
o'elook Sunday night, and on this night, at about ten
o’clock, two witnesses swore they saw defendant
passing towards the Cathedral*
The defence wasan alitn. Two or three witnesses
for Lock, testified, that on the night in question, the
latter was at Lis house, at Ninth and M.ap.e atreets,
from an early hour in the evening, up to a period
after the robbery was perpetrated. Testimony was
alro ottered to show that there was a man in the
city whom defendant much resembled, and had by
peicons known to both been frequently mistaken
for.
*Tfee case was given to Ihe jury without argument
on the testimony and the Instructions of Judge
Ludlow.
The jury rendered a verdict of acquittal.
