The Tree Military Academy.
To fie Editor of The Press:
observed in your valuable paper of yester
day a paragraphin your Washington correspondence
stating that the F 4 ee Military Academy in this city
for mm 1.110913 ts for command of colored troops will
be (osed on the 15th inst. In common with Min
u reds et soli ter e In the army, and discharged vow
race, who have received valuable instruction at the
academy., I cannot but feel that its discontinuance
its deeply to be regretted. Through its agency htm•
dreds of gallant and patriotic young men are now
bowleg important and responsible positions in the
army of the 'Union, which they would never have
secured but for the assistance rendered them at the
soo e o hey. There are many others, too, who have
reoeivel furloughs from • Sherman's, Rosecranr,
Washburn's, and other armies, who have j ust arrived
here to take advantage of the benefits of this ovule-
Ely, nod who will be compelled to return to their
regiments disappointed and discouraged. I- know
of two who arrived today, who came all the way
from Tennessee on purpose to enter the academy,
but finding its doors closed against them, they were
obliged to return from whence they came.
I can only ask, Messrs. Editors, Why the academy
13 to be clued. Is It for want of funds, as I have
heard it hinted If so, I led assured that if the
fact only becomes known the generous and public
spirited citizens of Philadelphia, who have for nearly
year past sustained this meritorious institution
nest liberally, will not now suffer it to langnieh and
die for want of means to support it, when the de
mand for officers is almost as great as when the in
stitution was started. Regiments of colored troops
are now being formed rapidly, both in the East and
the West, and I have understood that upwards of
eight regiments have recently beep organized in
Kentucky by Adjutant General Lorenzo Thomas,
the greater portion of the officers of which were
selected from the graduates of the Free Military
Academy of this city. With the success of our arms
in Georgia and Alabama, a wide hold willbe opened
f rom w hich to procure material to form additional
regiments of this description of troops, for which
large numbers of officers will be required.
The academy has received the warm approval o
Major General Casey and other army officers ram'-
liar with its operation, and many of its graduates,
on the acasion of the storming of the rebel works
after the explosion of the mine in front of Peters
burg, proved themselves men of undaunted bravery
and skilful officers, and several of them Sealed their
devotion.to their country with their life's blood on
that fatal day.
I trust that the attention of the citizens of Phila
delphia *ill be aroused to this subject, and that an
earnest effort will be made to continue the school in
existence, A DISCHARGED VETEIT.AN.
/be Democracy or Blair county, Va.
To the Editor of The Press
Stu: The last revised edition of the " Chicago,
platform " has been forwarded to us by express,
and we are happy to Bay that it meets with aril.
venal approval. All shades of party politicians
are in raptures over it. It comes nearer to a stereo-,
sonic perfection than anything that has been
brought forth for many a day. The Convention
was in great travail for a few days, but the most
skilful accoudieurs were in attendance to assist
delivery, and to the amazement of all lovers of
royalty, a no less personage was brought forth than
the tender and lovable "anti•war, anti-peace plat
form." The Democrats of this county (Blair) has.
toned to convene the sevens of their party, and on
last Thursday they met together for comfort and
eehaolation. Like the boy with his ten-pins, they
considered it lost time to set up a county ticket that
they knew would only be knocked down. Among
other things done was the instrnetion of their Con
gressional conferees to vote for Robt. L, Johnston,
froze Cambria, for Congress, and at the same time
rubbing over the sore back of Ilon. Ar eh. Me Meter,
the present member, a. little oil to soothe his disap
pointment. This Convention was largely attended
by the "remains of Knowdiothingism," and was
all loud for Dr. 3olmston. Thad. Banks,Daq., who,
in 1861, was elected to the State Legislature upon a
"vigorous war platform," was sent for and made a
speech. Speaking of the Chicago platform, he said
the "nigger" didn't appear in that platform once.
"It Is a platform on which-all good Democrats can
Stand, and Carry through anecesafully, and if the
military shall attempt to interfere with us we will
bare our right arms to resistance?) • * #
"Abe Lincoln wants to deStroy this Government to
set the nigger free." * • * "The Aboli
tionists lie when they say the Democrats are op
posed to this war, and they know they lie." • •
"From the time McClellan told that miserable old
jester Abe Lincoln, and that Infamous rascal Stan
ton, if he saved the Peninsular army he would not
thank them, he has been persecuted." Snob, dear
sir, is the first out cropping of Democracy in Blair,
which, if it continues so prolific, will produce a fine
harvest of Lincoln votes.

Thanksgiving on Sunday—A Suggestion.
To She Editor of The Press:
SIR Tho President hes issued a proclamation
appointing next Sunday as a day of thanksgiving
for our victories in Mobile Bay and at Atlanta.
Every patr otio, grateful, and devout heart will re'
apond to it, and the voice of thanksgiving" nd praise
will ascend to heaven from millions of our loyal
countrymen. But is not the occasion worthy of a
thank.offeringl And should we not give of our
abundance to the widows and orphans of our heroic
soldiers who have perished In battle or by disease,
that not only our voices but our actions may go up
as a testimonial before God I I therefore respect.
fully suggest that collections be taken in all our
churches on Sunday next for this purpose, and that
a committee or committees be appointed to make a
judicious distribution of the money. So will our
thanks have a substance and flavor about them that
will make them acceptable to both God and man.
A Hint to Railrwin Companies.
To Me Editor of The Press
Stu : As you are ever ready, through the medium
of your valuable paper, to promote a good cause,
would It not be desirable to stir up the city railroad
companies to the Importance of looking after the
cleanliness of their oars ?
Since the citizens generally have acquiesced in
the Increased prioe of the fare charged by the rail.
road companies, it is not unreasonable that they
should insist that the cars should be kept by those
companies in a cleanly condition. The fact is no
lotions that many persons hesitate to enter these
otherwise great public conveniences from a fear
of enoountering a species of insect which some
times find their way to places not in any way in
tended for them. A hint in this direction will, per
haps, answer a good end.
I am, sir, very respectfully,

rived off the navy yard yesterday morning from the
West " Gulf Blockading Squadron, with fourteen
officers (six of whom were wounded i n the capture
of Fort Morgan) and two hundred and thirty-three
eta, woundefi, and discharged seamen. On hermit,
ward passage the Bermuda, on the 17th of Augnst,
at 2A. M., sighted a large bark-rigged steamer
lying to under spanker. The Bermuda immediately
stood for her, but the auspicious -looking craft made
sail and escaped to the northward. She was fixed
at, but without effect, and made her escape under
cover of the darkness. The condition of New Or
leans, when the Bermuda left, was healthful, and
business was improving. .
ItECIMITLN6 QUARTERS.
New quarters, for the reorulting.of men for the
naval service, have been opened at Lombard and
Penn streets. This has been considered necessary
hecauSe of alleged injustice done to parties at the

Unusual numbers of "rebel oath-takers " have
made their appearance in onr Streets within the past
few days. They recently deserted the Confederate
army, and availed themselves of the amnesty act
issued by President Lincoln. These men, or many
of them, are dressed in gray clothes.

and others had circulated reports that the commit
tee had no power to act, and bad disseminated other
report's calculated to excite distrust in the oommit
tee. Many witnesses whom they subpoenaed did

seforal prominent op:raters had been summoned,

of all trades, except those of competent pavers.
The work of these men was carefully covered up
with gravel to conceal the bad workmanship. The
cobble-stones were laid upon their sides instead of

culverts, 7,000 for repairs to bridges, and a number
of other items of smaller amounts.
. Mr. Loutiszare, (0.) hoped the chamber would
continue to run the city into heavy debt, .and he
lioped that the reckless extra.vagance of last sea.
Mon would not be revived. He hoped that the
matter would be pbstponed for one week, that mem.
bars might see if there was a necessity for such a
large amount being appropriated at' this time.
Mr. Bazoos (U .)thought the request a reason
able one, inasmu chas some of the members might
notlnow the necessity of the appropriation.
Mr. STOKZLEF (U.) hoped the ordinance would
pass to-day. There was a pressing necessity for re
pairs to streets, and the bill ought not to be de
layed from day to day and from week to week, when
there was no necessity for any delay. -
Mr. Eysies (U.) knew the demands of the High
way Department, and it was necessary for opera
tions going on properly in the Highway_ Depart..
mont that the appropriation should be made. He
knew if these appropriations were made the Com
missioner of Highway! could go out of office with
clean skirts, and It would not be necessary for a sub
sequent Connell to pass's deficiency bill for the pay

finally postponed for one week. •

, pr. Wm. Darragh testified that the aeaused was

appeared; she had been employed at times for two
or three years.
Col. James Page testified that the accused had
been In the employ of the members of his household;
I have Identified numerous articles; can't say that
I have identified all the things that were taken ; I

Initials upon them. -
Charles W. 'Wharton testified to the employment

George W. Callanan testified that he, in company

Mr. Gellman was questioned by the counsel for
the accused in substance as follows :
Question. Had you any conversation with the de;
fondant
Answer. I had.
Q. WIII you please state what it weal -
A. I asked her how long she had been at this; she
replied three years.
"At what ?"
"Stealing."
A Flight pause here ensued.
"We have made out thirty cases already," said
the officer.. -
question. DM you take all the goods you could
and in her room 7 .
Answer. Yea, sir.
Q. A watch
A. Yes, sir.
Q. Do you know to whet:Bit belonged 1
A. She said it was her mother's.
Q. Have you that watch
A. It is In the possesskin of the Chief, and locked
In his fire-proof. •
Q. Did you otter any inducements to tho defendant
to make her confess I •
A. NO, slr. I have been a police officer thirty
three years, and do not do such work.
F.dward Carlin testified as to the arrest of the de
fendant at Mrs. Lennig's, onWriday last. She had
on her a bag (known as a swag-bag), beneath her
skirts ; it had stolen articles ln It, some of them be
ing quilted to the bag ; we brought her to the sta
tion ; on the following day searched her room, and
at once brought part of the things away; she said
she had been doing this for three years; we made
no promises or threats to induce her to make a con
-1080011.
The ease here closed and the prisoner speedily
disappeared from the over.crowded room.
- The audience was composed mostly of ladies,
some of whom had been robbed. It was evident
that many were there from curiosity, which the
all gratified by making a pretty minute exami
nation of the array of goods that had been recovered.
Many of the ladies,were in the pollee office for the
first time in their lives. They had probably read
something about the rogues' gallery, but now they
saw it for the first time. Several rather amusing
scenes occurred within the gallery room. Upon en
tering, many of the visitors would give some sort of
an exclamation of surprise upon beholding the large
number of portraits of criminals.
"Are these the likenesses of the police officers 1 9
asked an elderly lady, with gold spectacles.
"Yes, madam "
, replied an unauthorized indi
vidual of waggish propensities.
" Some are very old ; are they not, sir w asked the
old lady.
"Yes, madam ; we have them of all ages ; they
are nearly all out of the draft."
Well, sir, these are the youngest, I suppose,"
said the anxious inquirer,-pointing to a row of pro
fessional pickpockets.
draft " Yes,. " madam ; they are also entirely out of the
"Well, they are quite good-looking young men ;
some of them are really handsome,u rejoined the
old lady, as she oontinued looking around the
.gal
lery. To her left hand she observed the female gal
lery, and expressed considerable surprise. " Why,
eir,u said sheaturning to her informant, "do you
have women on the pollee Tu
"Ohl yes, madam, they are very serviceable, at
times. They travel tneog.,land from them we derive
Considerable Information at times."
The colloquy here closed, and the wag left the
room to relate to other persons his practical joke.
In regard to the prisoner, many entertain the
opinion that , petty thieving with her was a sort of
manta, as she never sold, or at toast it is not known
that abe ever sold, any of the articles she purloined.
The affair has caused more than ordinary excite
ment in police circles, as well as among the wealthy
class of society. •
We must say that a memorandum book, found
among the pile of volumes, contains a number of
original records, also extracts from the writings of
favorite authors. We select a few, which are sup
posed to be In the handwriting of the defendant :
" Friendship Implies equality and the power to
help each other."
" The vows made in a time of terror and despair
fade in the sunshine of teturning prosperity."
"There is not much merit in doing well when
there is no temptation to do evil."
"To mortals no Borrow Is immortal ; the storm
Will spend itself and calm of some kind will come."
" For every soul sent on earth there is a work al
lotted.”
The book may be identified by the owner by a
copy of one page of the diary, as follows :
