French Art.
Two Purremen tit' MtttesOzeian.—This painter
has already made the acquaintance of the lovers of
art in Philadelphia, through his little miniature of
The Trumpeter," lately on exhibition at the Art
Gallery of the Sanitary Fair. It is In tiro strict
Sense of the word a gem. Although small, It is so
faultless, SO unique, so charming in Its naturalness,
that as high as $B,OOO has been offered for its posses
-
Tire are two pictures from his pencil now
On exhibition In FuZis—one entitled " A Retreat in
1814," and the other, "The ,Emporor at Solferino."
He has attained the IMMO wonderful success in
these two as In "The Trumpeter," and shows more
than ordinary talent. Of the "Retreat," a grand
picture, the London Times says:
(4 Untler a cold, cheerless sky, covered with mist,
- pourlog sleet on the earth, we see number of
horsemen riding along at a slow pace. It is the
Emperor, followed by his stuff, while a autumn of the
army follows at some distance. The subject is the
campaign of 1814, In which Napoleon's genius
!Ahmed itself greeter than, pellet's, at any thno
during his wonderful career. Tho ground they
_ride over is broken up into deep ruts by the
heavy artillery, or trampled into small heaps
of mud, colored by the Mir-incited snow which
covers the distant plain, not yet trodden un
der foot by the troops. Nothing can ho more
dreary than the scene ; the garments of the
men are soaked through with sleet, and the
men themselves broken down with long fight
ing, long watching, anti forced marches: l We
perceive that no sound is hoard but the horses'
hoofs mid the monotonous tramping of men's feet ;
nod not one of the numerous staff that ride behind
the Emperor but whose countenance tolls a tale of
exhaustion and almost of despair. Tho Emperor
himself, mounted on a white horse, his hat down to
his eyes, his right littnti with the riding-whip hang-
ing from a thong ronntl the wrist thrust into the
breast of his gray overcoat, which - reaches .to :his
face, and is closely buttoned round him, rides a
pace or two in front. His feeturee, firm and fixed as
stone, betray no fatigue and no coneeionsness of the
Ineleutent sky end the dreary field. His lips are firmly
pressed together, and his eyes look inward, as If, still
unconquered, and not yet exhausted in resources, he
Was conceiving some new plan of battle. Nothing
Can he more Intensely resolute thantthe expression
of that face ; but It expresses at, hope of success—
nothing but the tierce resolve to struggle to the very
last. Ha moves on wrapped up in his thoughts, and
insonsitile to all around. The officers of his staff fol
low him, their uniforms wholly or partly covered by
thick cloaks, or overcoats, brown, blue, gray, old or
new, close buttoned, or loose , like that of Noy, who
is easily recognized in his old brown snrtout, faa
toned only by a single button, which , you see must
Blindly give way. The horses are as tired as the
riders, and it requires close attention to the
to keep them front falling. So fur as we can per
ceive, the faces of these men are thoughtful; almost
desponding, pale, but still determined like their
chief, but like him, too, hardly hoping. In spite of
the moral energy that still supports them, two or
three among them .cannot hold out, and the heads
moving with the pace of the pone, or drooping to
cuddle bow,'show, that there is a limit to human
strength, and that sleep has overpowered them. No
one speaks to the other, and the only sign of life is
where as young officer in a Hussar uniform rises a
little in his stirrups., and :looks back at spine object •
behind. At a distance column of Infantry is
moving along the whitened plain on a line parallel
to thestall; and, though the whole picture Is not
much larger than the lid of a small box, the eye can
easily detect the drummers with their instruments
at their back, and the shrikes of the mounted officers'
above the column."
Rosa Bonnet:ft has contributed two pictures to
the French exhibition stint are, It is said, alone
worth the journey to the Palace to see ; ono is a de
lightfully natural picturesque scene of Landats
peasants, returning home with their depict of sheep
and goats collected from the wide ydains. Tho
shepherds, dressed in their sheepskin jackets and
leggings, are striding amongst the sheep upon short
Baits, which give a most singui ulook to the picture'
at first sight; but this odd anise, which makes the
wild-looking fellows look ike some strange kind of
being, half men half satyr, is so truly and faithfully
painted, that we soon take in the meaning of it, and
find ourselves amongst the simple herdsmen of the
Landats, and understand the sense of wearing these
stilts to protect the shins, keep above the ;heat and
duet, and to see nu over the flock after stragglers
or accidents. This picture is amongst those which
have been engraved. The other picture Is one of
liltille. Bonheur's Highland studies; It represents a
ferry boat crossing abroad lake in the. Highlands,
leaded with sheep, and two lusty "elites" pulling
stoutly at the oars. The-ease apparently with which
this crowd of tightened, panting sheep, all crammed
together in a small boat, have been got into the
picture without the least appearance of squeezing,
'flattening, and crippling, or any of the other do
fortuities of a less perfect master of animal painting,
is something astonishing. There is a life-like paint
ing in, these extremely uncomfortable sheep, with
openouths and glistening oyes, all hustling one
suother, and basting till we fancy we hear the hub
bub of their discontent.
A BIRTH-DlAntr.—A California paper, published
in Atuador county, gives a very curious physiologi
cal fact. In' the southern portion of the county
lives a man who has been in the habit of abusing
his family. A few days since he seized a hammer,
and threatened to kill his wife. That night she
gave birth to a stillborn child, and across la fore
head was the print of a hammer/ It created conside
rable excitement in the neighborhood, and if a lat
tice had been there the monster would have been
arrested.

RELIGIOUS CONVENTION.
NATIONAL ASSOCIATION FOR THE - AILE).ZD , :
NEST OF TILE CONSTITUTION.
This Association re-assembled In the Trinity Pd.
E. Church, Eighth street above Race, yesterday
morning at nine o'clock, Dr. Dales in the chair.
The 'Rev. John Douglas. D. ID., of Pittsburg,
opened the proceedings with prayer. In, the absence
of the Secretary, the Rev. Mr. - Stevenson was ap
pointed Secretary, pro tem. The nominating corn
. ntittee then made a supplemental - report, vie.: Vice
'President Hon. James Pollock; Corresponding Se
cretary, Rey. J. B. Dales, D.D.; Treasurer, Samuel
Agnew, Esti.; Executive Committee, Rev. J. Ed
wards, D. D., Rev. J. H. Bomberger, D. D. John
Alexander, Thomas.Wattson, and 0. Heiskilf,Eses.
Br. Dales tendered his resignation as corresponding
Secretary, and John Alexander was appointed In
his place. A Committee on Correspondence was
then appointed, and resolutions of instruction to it
and the Executive Committee, werepassed unanim-
Ously. •
Resolved, That the next meeting of the Association be
held in the city of Philadelphia on the last Tuesday of
October next. at Or, o'clock..p. ,
I.
Moved by the Rev. J. li. elellvaine,. D. D., se
condedj by Rev. John Douglas D. D., that the
'words "supreme law of the land s' be stricken out,
. cand•the words "of supreme authority" be Inserted.
- . --- . - Tue , eords_!‘j_til the inhabitants of the land," were,
.On motion, cu .11 _ the , pee _
pie," in the same document.
••• Dr. Alellvaine hoped that the words, " and in or
der to constitute a Christian government," which
•• had been omitted in some melons of the memorial,
would be restored. The_
bad much influerm jr heS .fralning
r s referred to were de
g•Beem-nter Into the "original isitenli'! of..the
• framers of the Constitution.
Rev. A. Id. Mulligan said we have no God as a
nation. There is a declaration of Jefferson and
Jackson on record in Washington to this effect.
Rev. Dr. Douglas did not believe that the Consti
tution was either atheistic •or pro-slavery. The
matter with the Bey of Tripoli, one of the oases re
•forreci to, had been satisfactorily explained, and did
not in the least compromise the Christian character
of the Government or the nation. There was nothing
in the history of the Constitution to warrant the
statement that French infidelity had exercised a
controlling influence in the framing of the Constitu
tion. The convention that framed it did not meet
originally for that purpose. Their object was to
emend the old articles of Confederation. Even
granting that Jefferson and Jackson did make the
declarations referred to, such declarations would
not make us an anti-Ohristian and atheistic nation.
But other declarations were on record at Washing
ten. The present President of the United States re
quires., In the amnesty proclamation, that returning
penitent rebels shall swear by "Almightyaod.l ,
Then we have a God, and are not an atheistic na
tion.
Adjourned till three o'clock In the afternoon.
The Association reassembled in the afternoon at 3
o'clock, and was opened with prayer by the Rev.
Mr. Graham, of Boston. The report of the Com-
Watee on Business was then adopted.
Congregations were requested to take up collec
tions to defray the expenses of the Association.
A-motion wag passed to appoint committees In
different cities throughout the country to enlist the
editors and proprietors of the secular and religious
papers in behalf of the cause of the Association, and
furnish articles on the subject.
On motion, the book entitled "The Book for the
Nation and the Times?' was recommended as being
worthy of a general circulation.
Committees were then appointed to enlist, the
'agency of the press In 'different localities in behalf
of the objects of the Association. The committee for
Philadelphia are: Dr. Edwards, Gov. Pollock, Rev.
Mr. Price, Dr. Newton, Rev. IN r Longacre, Dr.
Eddy, Dr. Bomberger, Rev. Mr. Krotel, Rev. S. 0.
'Wylie, J. H. Suydam, and Rev. 3. G. Butler, D. D.
' After some routine business the Convention ad
journed, Dr.' Cooper concluding by prayer.

THE FIT= AND SIXTII-STREETS RMIdIOAD.
The board of directors of this well-conducted pas
senger railway company have advanced the wages
of the drivers to $2 per diem. This was entirely
voluntary on the part ofthe directors. The wages of
oiler employees were also raised without having
been asked for. ?This road •was not represented
officially at the meeting of drivers held on Sunday
last, a report of which was published In The Press
of Illonday. We learn that President West opposed
the advance rate of fare, but as he was nnsuccessfal
in his laudable efforts on behalf of the travelling
public, it was wisely determined that the employees
should come in for a share of the income. The
Filth and Sixth•streets road was built at a very
heavy expense, almost as much again as any other
road, and yet in the opinion of its president live
cents per passenger would yield a handsome profit.
The fact is, the majority of the railroads aro poor
stock, and yet they hero an equal vote with such
model roads as the Fifth and Sixth' streets.. If
such roads as tho Green and Coates Richmond
and Schuylkill, Lombard and South; Callowhill
street, and one or two others of the small affairs,
are entitled to one vote each in the board of presi
dents, such a road as the Fifth and Sixth is en
titled to half a dozen votes to make a fair, square
contest on any subject.
THE FUNERAL OF ADAM KEEN
Adam Keen, who was accidentally killed on tho
Philadelphia, and Baltimore railroad,
on Sunday morning Inst., was a young man. of rare
talent and financial ability. Ho was the confiden
tial olerk ofthe great establishment of Messrs. Hea
ney, Son, Zie Archbold, located at Ohester, Pa., and
was universally esteemed and respected by all
classes in that thriving little town. His funeral,
which took place on Wednesday afternoon, was ono
of the largest civic funerals that has , ever taken
place in this city. His remains were escorted to the
Odd Fellows' Cemetery by a numerous concourse of
friends and several societies. -Nearly 1,000 persons,
residents of Ohester and vicinity, were present.
MEETING OF TILE WORE:DM WOMEN
A mass meeting of the Working .Women's Asso
ciation of this city was held in Sansom-street Halt
lest evening. The attendance was large, consider
ing the 'weather. •
The president, Mrs. Denett, occupied the chair.
The preamble and constitution of the association,
which was recently adopted, was then read by Mr.
Van Cleve. It provides that the organization shall

one. representative for every fifty members. The

for political purposes In the coming campaign. He _
also contended that the trustees of the tias Works -
wore not to be trusted with tho expenditure of the
people's mousy.
Mr. Louontisr (0.) rebuked Mr. Evans, and eon
tended, as a point of order that It was not. , proper
for any member to reflect In Connell upon the oho,
rector of the trustees of the gas works, or any other
men who wore not represented or present in the
Chamber.
Jgr. STOKELY (U.) said ho was tired of the petty
schemes and plans. used by some members of the
Chamber to retard legislation; and he would not
allow it to pass without his proteet.
Mr. EvANS (U.) if the gentleman from the
Ninth does not like my action he May lump tt.
Mr. STOKELY (U.) 1 will do so, and make the
matter a personal one.
Mr. Evans (U.) Very well, sir.

that none of the loan should be expended until the
trustees of the Gas Works reduced the price to

THE POLICE.
(Before Mr. "Aldernsan Welding.)
OUTRAGEOUS CONDUCT.
Owen O'Keefe and Daniel Wilds were arraigned
yesterday morning on thecharge of malicious mis
chief, in forcing their way Into the house of Johan
na Hays, a respectable Door woman on Nicholson
street, a small thoroughfare in the SLcth ward. The
evidence adduced set -forth that the defendants
appeared at the front. door of the house at 2 o'clock
in the morning, and commenced kicking and thump
ing at the same, and vehemently demanding ad
mittance. The inmates were terribly . alarmed.
'The assailants entered the house, and prceeded to
inspect the several apartments. A Mrs. Duncan,
who occupied a room, sent her little son, a.lad about
15 years old, in search of a police officer, who speedi
ly arrived, and took the two men into custody. The
prisoners committed various *messes, while in the
house, of an immoral character. The Alderman
read the prisoners aprotty severe lecture; and told
them plainly that the shooting of them Sown like
dogs would have been justified under the law. The
accused were committed to answer.
LARCENY ADMITTED.
Emma Fisher was .arraigned on the charge of
stealing a lot of wearing apparel and a breast-pin,
the property of William Little. • As the case was
about to be investigated, she said it " warn't no use
to go into particklars, because I stole the things,and
that's all about it." She was committed. Emma
seemed rather more delighted than otherwise at the
prospect of a sojourn in the county prison.
A WOUNDED. SOLDIER BEATS A MAN..
Joseph Bassett, a.- badly wounded soldier helong
ing to a hospital at Washington but who is in Phi
ladelphia on a furlough, was arraigned on the charge
of committing a violent assault and battery on John
Pretty., the driver of a horse and wagon. This is an
unfortunate case in all its aspaeie. beelus too
soldier, with the assistance of a stout walking-cane,
was limping along Delaware avenue, when - Freitz
drove pretty close to him. The soldier thought the
driver did not exercise sufficient care, and therefore
Struck himleavlly on the head with the cane. He
plied the blows pretty thick and fast, on the cut and
thrust or slashing principle. The driver did not
return the blows, but got away, and unloaded l'i°
wagon at Arch-street wharf. r i n it an d
.1,...th5-velefrEle on the side of the head.
The driver fell from the force of the_hlow...and.re
mained insensible for a couple of hours, at which
time, under constant medical attendance, he was
reanimated. The soldier in the meantime was
taken into custody, it being supposed that Freitz
could not survive. At the hearing. the soldier ad
mitted thathe was too rough, and he could not tell
what made him throw the bottle. He candidly said
that in this he did wrong. A number of witnesses
were examined who saw.thc whole affair, and they
all concurred that the soldier's life or limb was not
jeopardized at any one moment. Mr. Freitz said
that he could not find It in his heart to, strike any
soldier who had been wounded in the service of the
country, and it was because of this feeling, that
be got - out of the way of the blows in 'the first
place. The soldier was committed. He shed tears
quite,copiously when he came to reflect upon his
actio in the matter. •
[Before Mr. Alderman Carter.]
JUVENIMB.TIIIEVES.
Three little boys, 'mined Luke Archer, Thomas
Sweeny, and Joseph Ryan, whose moral training
appears to have been shamefully neglected, were
arraigned yesterday' on the charge of stealing a
box containing about ftfty dollars' worth of en
gravers' tools, the property of Adolph Berger. It
seems that Mr. Berger was, moving his goods yes
terday, from a house near Thifil . and Shippen
streets. Four boys offered their services to assist
him. The youngsters went to work, and wheri,an
opportunity offered the box of tools aforesaid !eras
stolen. The properly was recovered at a pawa-shop
at Fifth and South streets. The juveniles were
bound over to answer.
(Before Mr. Alderman Bottler.
DISORDERLY HOUSES
Alice Wilson and Emma Wormley were arraigned
yesterday, at the Central Station, on the charge of
keeping disorderly houses at 313 and 315 Juniper
street. A number of the near residents were ex
amined, who testified as to disordely characters visit
ing the houses atall hours, particularly in the night
time. The defendants were required to enter bail in
the sum of t 41,000 each, to answer at court.
(Before Mr. Alderman White.]
ALL ABOUT A POODLE DOO.
A curious case was adjudicated yesterday before
Alderman White, of the Fifth ward. It. was all
about a,dwarf poodle dog. It seems that two years
since ap Englishman started on his return to his na
tive land. He was the owner of the poodle. The
animal was presented to a woman named Ellen
Winslow, and she promised to take the best care of
IL Not having home conveniences to keep the dog,
she engaged theservicos of a Dirs. Dailey, residing in
the rear of a house in which Ellen-lived, on Spruce
street, between Front and Second, to board the ani
mal at so much per week. Thepoodle was regularly
fed, and grew up j ust like one of the family. Attunes,
it its breakfast on fresh kidneys ; other times,
the gastric juice was made to operate upon oyster
fritters, or cold chicken, and on divers occasions the
poodle went to bed, having .gorged its stomach on
first-class liver. The board bill was paid, and every
thing was perfectly satisfactory, both to the owner
of the poodle and the boarding mistress. Fourth of
July, with all its scones of Young 'America patriot
ism, was a sad day for Ellen. As she was walking
along Front street, above Dock, on that glorious
day, having the aforesaid poodle In her arms, quiet
ly meditating upon the; beauty of its white, silver
hair, a woman, with sunburned arms, auburn hair,
and sleeves rolled up, dashed suddenly from a door
way, and, - to the utter consternation of Ellen,
" grabbed' , (to use her language) the poodle, and
exclaimed, at the top of her voice, as she retreated
to the house with the affrighted canine—
" Oh, my long lost Fanny ; oh, my Fanny I"
"Give me back me dog," shouted Ellen, as she re
covered from the shock her nerves had received.
"Got out ov 'ore," responded the rough vice of a
"Give me my poodle," reiterated Ellen.
"Out of ',ere, or bile call the police, you thief,"
respondedd the yolee.
Out ov 'ere I out ov 'ere !" shouted half a dozen
women, the poodle yelping to make the chorus com
plete.
" Get out ov 6 ore, you thief, or 101 l putlye out," said
a man, coming towards the affrighted and wonder
stricken Ellen, who burst Into tears.
66 I'm not, a thief," she retorted.
"Ye are; where did ye steal the poodle, ye
Weft"
e:You call me a thief, c l do ye 1" replied Ellen.
lil l oi nk , a re e e responded
yo
t o ile man.
dhouted Ellen through
her tears.
Off she started and appealed to Magistrate White
for redress.
The case was duly inveStigated.
" Alderman," said she, with breathless haste, "
man called me a thief, because ho said I stole his
poodle ; !tie mine, yer honor, and / want a warrant."
"What do you want a warrant -fort" quietly
asked the good-natured Alderman, laying down his
pen, wig; which he had been filling a deed in fee
ample.
" Why ha called me a thief, and I want to make
him prove it," she replied.
• "That would be a sorry day for you, perhaps, if
you succeed In your attempt. Tell us all about 1t;
what Is the matter 1"
Ellen related the story pretty much as detailed
above, to which the magistrate replied, "Then, in
stead of your wanting to make the man prove that
you are a thief, you want to prove that he is ono."
"Yes,sir, that's it, an> I want me pocolle, „ me dear
little poodle, given to me two years ago." .
The warrant was issued, and the ease was duly
and patiently investigated.
The proseentrix related all the particulars as to
possession of the animal.
Mr. Merilch also claimed the poodle, and valued
it at $25.
Ellen put more value than this on it, for she re
garded ft with almost as much affection as she felt
for ono of her own children. Mrs. Bailey, the
boarding mistress, became quite melanoholy over
the scone, and said that she was so much attached
to the poodle that to be thus separated from it would
almost break her heart.
The magistrate overhauled the Rased Penal Code;
turned over a page or two of Blackstone ; thumbed
a few leaves in Binns' Justice, and while reflecting
what decision to make, both parties demanded that
gm case be returned to court. It was returned tie-
