ATTEMPTED DESERTION.
The temptation offered by the large bounty now
tieing paid to recruits induces many to enlist
rvvithout any intention of serving in the army, but
'with the expectation of finding a favorable opportu
• nity to escape. This is a very easy mode of earning
'money, but a. very hazardous one. An instance.of
the danger happened on last Tuesday, to a man
named Myers, recruited in Lancaster. As Assist
•arit Provost IVlersbal Shenk was conveying a party
of recruits to camp in this city from Lancaster,
:Myers, being one of them, attempted to escape from
'the bonds of - Uncle Sam. The - mode he adopted was
•-a very unwise one. As the procession was passing
)ager.beer Selpoil on Ridge avenue, our would be
Gesertir mu out of the ranks and under the pro
tecting roof of Mynheer the saloon keeper. Beer
could not save him, however, nor pretzels, for he
Ryas Speedily captured by aprivate of the guard and
'brought out into open day. He was not easily to be
-subdued, however, and broke from his captor, with
- the intention to escape at all hazards. A ball from
the guarpe revolver, however, made him pause, and
be was ngain secured, and now finds himself the ir;
-mate of a camp hospital, having received a wound
an the fleshy part of the arm.

TWENTY-FOURTII WARD.
The loyal citizens of this ward seem to have en
tered the -political arena with much tnthusinstn,
determined to spare no exertion to carry it for Lin
coln and Johnson in November next. Their dele
gation was the first to arrive at the meeting on
Saturday Ina, and tonight a meeting will be held
at the headquarters of the National Union party,
Market street, above Thirty.third, to form a cam
paign club for the ward.
FRANKLIN INSTITUTE
The monthly meeeting of the Franklin Institute
was held last evening. After the usual prelimi
nary business an improved slide-valve motion for
steam-engines was exhibited by Mr. Edward Brown.
This motion is di signed for giving a short cut-off to
large slide.valve engines, and is somewhat similar
to the ordinary link-motion, except that a cam is
substituted for one of the eccentrics.
Prof. Fleury explained the construction and opera
tion of a universal blast and smelting furnace, the
Invention of Major General Rachotte, of the Rus
sian army. In this furnace the hearth has the
shape of an elongated rectangle, the interior being
wat the toand is with ouble
seriesidest
of tuy res,arranged infurnished
alternate inte a
ro d hang.
lug order. The furnace has also through its walls a
system of flues by which it is dried and heated from
• the outside, towards the centre, and afterwards
ventilated. A large number of these furnaces have
:been built and used in Europe.
Lorenzo Vance exhibited his improved saw mill,
in which four circ alai*. saws are so arranged and ope
.rated that the timber can be cat of almost any
:shape.
CARL SENTZ' BAND AT FAIIIMOURT PARR.
This afternoon. should the weather prove favors-
Ile, the band will, for the first time, occupy the
beautiful temple opposite the Mansion House,
which has been erected by the city ftir the aceommo
dation of the Park Band. The conductor promises
a selection of his choicest music for the occasion.
There will doubtless be a full attendance.
PAYMASTER DAVID TAGGART.
.*We learn that the order of the War Department
-directing Major Taggart to proceed to St. Lords has
been revoked, and that ho will continue to remain
in this city, where he has been located for the past
three years, Major Taggart has been so prompt
•and faithful in the discharge of his official duties
'that he has become a favorite with all who have had
any business with him, and we are sere that his
'numerous friends will be - gratitiod to learn that hois 4
- to be continued in Philadelphia.
A SOLDIER AUTHOR.
A. F. Hill, a soldier of the Army of the. Potomac,
who ham been in all the battles in which that army
.engaged, up to Antietam, where he lost his left leg,
has written a book entitled Our. Boys.' , Unable

work
in its behalf. It is well written, and interesting.
all "Xr. Hill has the book for , and it may be had at
bookstores. A generoussale public should aid this
crippled hero.
A MAN SMOT
Occasionally, for some time past, enlisted men
have deserted from Oamp Oadwalader, and mea
sures were adopted to arrest outside parties, whom
It was thought were aiding in the villainous busi
ness. Yesterday afternoon, between two and three
-o'clock, a fellow named MoLeeeh, hailing from New
York, having procured passes for several soldiers to
get out, in order that they might jump the bounty,
was caught with several passes on his person. The
guard attempted to arrest him, when the fellow
fled: He was hailed several times, but would. not
-Stop. While running across the lot south of the
,camp ground the guard fired at the fugitive, at the
distance of nearly one hundred yards, and shot
him in the shoulder and back, the musket being
loaded with a ball and three buck-shot. The fugt
.tive kept on running, but soon fell. He was taken
into the camp•ground and placed under surgical
care. Unfortunately, he was only slightly wound
- ed, though ho bled considerably. The blood was
black looking. On his person, and even in his boot
legs, a considerable amount of money was found,
which had been obtained, it was thought, from the
..soldiers.
Owing to the above circumstance, the presenta
• lion of three swords to officers of the gallant 001. A.
A. Lechler's regiment, the 199th, which was to have
- taken place, was postponed until a o'clock to-mor
row afternoon.
• We found it utterly impossible to gain admit
tance into the camp, because of the utt(r demo
• ralization of the whole concern. It contains several
regiments. and recruits for a considerable number
already in the field, and dersortions, for want of
proper discipline, are quite frequent. The War
Department's attention will probably be called to
this camp, with the view of having it more efficient
ly supervised.
- -
A fire brcke out yesterday 'morning, about half
past three o'clock, In an old three story brick btiild
ing, No. 309 Race street, which was used as a manu
facturing establishment, and contained a large
quantity of combustible material. The whole
building was soon enveloped in flames, which
spread with great rapidity.
The first floor was occupied by J. 0. Homayers,
steam block•letter.maker and fancy carver. The
second story front was occupied by A. Theodore
Dietz, turner in horn, bone, ivory, and hard wood,
and H . Calverly, worker in Brittania metals. The
second floor of the back building was occupied by
IL H. Mithcefer, wood.turner.
The building was completelpogutted, and much
valuable machinery and consifferable work, some
finished, was destroyed. . •
An accident occurred during the progress of the
fire in which it Is fortunate no lives were lost. The
second floor fell in upon John Carlin and Wm.
Wakefield, members of the Vigilant Engine Com
way, who were seriously injured.
While the fire was at its height, an incident hap
pened which appalled all who witnessed it. Be
tween the building in flames and the house adjoin
ing there was nothing but a narrow alloy, across
which a woman who lived in the latter house, fear
ing that her only mode of egress would be barred
by the flames, attempted to pass. She had an in
fant in her arms. She was destitute of clothing,
except her night apparel. Neither she nor her
child was hurt, which fortunate escape might al.•
most be attributed to Providential influence.
A fire occurred yesterday afternoon at No. 1420
North Fifth street, above Master, on which premi
ses there are a slaughterhouse and a dwelling. The
slaughterhouse was somewhat injured, and the
roof of the dwelling was partially burned. The fire
extended to the roofs of three dwellings on Sutton
street, which were slightly damaged. The total
loeswas about $1,500,

CITY ITEMS.
FALSE REPORT.—The report in some of the
papers that Gen. Grant had "bust" is a mistake.
Mrs. Grant having received and learned to use the
•elegant "Grover & Baker" Sewing Machine pro.
sentod to her through the "Great Sanitary Fair,"
with the compliments of 250 subscribers, the gene
ral's linen and under garments aro now so well and
durably made that neither they nor the General can
"bust." In addition to this, his outer .clothing
comes from a lirsbelass Chestnut-street house,
where none but the "Grover & Baker " . machineil
are used ; so it is utterly impossible for either the
General or his clothing to "bust," thotigh he will
doubtless very soon "bust" what little remains of
the rebel Confederacy.
WS ASE GLAD To nrrow that the Sewing Depart
ment of the Wheeler & Wilson Establishment is so
well patronized by the laflies Such
:Specimens of work we have never seen done either
41 , the hand or by any other sewing machine but the
'Wheeler & Wilson. The Wheeler &. Wilson Com
ipany send out obliging and competent young ladies
iby the day or week, with or without machines. This
, we consider a great accommodation to families. Al,
, together the Wheeler & Wilson concern is one of
She institutions that reflect credit on our city. Their
.elegant salesrooms, No. 704 Chestnut street, stand
unrivalled. The Wheeler & Wilson Sewing Mar
chine, we all know, is the only one that gives mil
•aersal satisfaction. They have been thoroughly
tried, and those who have them in use would not be
-without thorn for ten times their cost. Every mar
chine is warranted, and the money returned if not
entirely satisfactom Go to 704 Chestnut street, and
examine these wonderful Machines. Send for oirott

it is delighted with the mannerin which it performs,
and the wonderful range it possesseii for all kinds of
sewing. No one should think of Vuying a sewing

and examining the Florence. ll It is warranted to
give satisfaction, or the money refunded to the pur

TEE LATEST PARISIAN .SENSATION.--TMS
“ Lubin , s Hair-Dressing Floriline,” an article . that
eclipses all former triumphs of the Floral Art. it
decorates and invigorates the hair, makes it earl,
keeps the head cool, fastens the hair in any desired
position, and adds a delightful perfume imparted
by no other article. It is fitting that a land pro

works of art should have had the honor of origi
nating the now world-renowned " Fforiline."

WHAT IS MEANT BY BRONCHITIS
Is an inflammation of the bronchia, or passages
which convey air to the lungs. In its earlier stages
this (Ilse:m.ls commonly called a cold, or a cold in
the breast: It usually comes on with a little hoarse
.
'nese, followed by a moderate cough, with slight
feelings of heat or soreness about the throat and
chest. If not arrested, the cough becomes one of
the most proroinent symptoms, as well as the most
painful and distressing; the inflammation increases
in intensity, until it finally Interferes with the ac
cess of air to the lung cells, when the vital powers
soon give way. In most of the stages of this ilia ,

IN MEMORIAM. •
Sossi , rf HENRY Cox, on the outbreak of the rebellion,
enlisted with the three-months men, and, on the expi
ration of the term of service, he re-enlisted in the navy.
Since that period he steadily, and by merit alone, work
ed.his way up to the position of Acting Ensign, which
lie occupied at the time of his death. Although so young
in years, be was selected from the list of squadron offi
cers for that position by the Admiral of the fleet. Mr.
Cox was quick to understand. and as quick to execute,
with a perfect willingness to obey, the orders of his su
perior officers. This, with his many other good quali
ties, endeared him to all around him, and all united in
paying the laet tribute to emory. It has pleased
the Almighty Disposer of eventsto remove him from our
midst. We deplore his loss. but our feelings of regret
are softened by the confident hope that his spirit is with
. those who, having fought the good fight here, are en
joying perfect happiness in a better world. He was
brave, noble. and kind. He was generous. affable,
and loving. He was au affectionate and loving husband,
a dutiful son, and a faithful and true friend. He leaves
a young wife and one child to mourn his loss. 'We ten
der his family our sincere condolence and earnest sym

Silence on the public mind. We are deeply impressed
with the grave responsibilities of our situation. We
feel that we have reached a point in our national pro

must be thoughtfully balanced and resolutely decided
upon. _The solemn trust which we :received from our

To the Union League of Philadelphia':
GENTLEmste : It is with great pleasure that I accept
your kind invitation. If I entertained any doubt as to
the propriety of an officer taking an active part in the
political dietmesions now. agitating the country, Gen.
Grant's letter to Hon. B. B. Washburn, has done much
to remove them. It is certainly true that "all we
'ant now to insure an early restoration of the Union is
a determined union of sentiment North, " If I can con
tribute anything towards achieving an object of such
immense importance in this decisive crisis, an effort on
my part shall not be wanting.
I am, gentlemen, very truly ) ours,

This invention consists of Duplex (or two) Elliptic
Steel Springs, ingeniously braided tightly and firmly
;together, edge to edge, making the toughest, most elas
tic., flexible, and durable spring ever used, enabling the
°wearer,
wearer, in consequence of its great elasticity and flexi
bility, to place and fold the skirt when inuse as easily
and with the same convenience as a silk or muslin
dress. It entirely obviates and silences the only objec
,tiou to hoop skirts, V i-Z : . the annePance to the wearer
tie well as the public, especially in ere wded assemblies,
Carriages, railroad cars, churchpews, or litany crowded
place, from the dculty of contracting them to occupy 4
lag small space. This entitely,removes the difficulty,
while giving the skirt the usual fall and symmetrical
-Rum, and is the lightest and most stylish and graceful
appearance for the street, opera, promenade, or house
,dress. A lady having enjoyed the pleasure, comfort,
.and great' convenience of wearing the Duplex Elliptic
Spring Skirt for a single day, will never afterward
willingly dispense with the nee of them. They are the
best quality In every part, and by far the lightest, most
durable,•comfortable„ and economical skirt made. Mer
chants will be supplied as above, and ladies in most
first-class retail stores in this city and throughout the
different States.

higher rate of interest than any other, and the best
security, Any savings bank which pays Its depositors

4 s own assets are either in
Government securities or in notes or bonds payable in.

In addition to the very liberal interest on the notes
for three years, this privilege of conversion is now
worth About three per tent. per annum, for the Current
rate for 6.20 Bonds is not less than nine per cent. pre.
mium, and before the war the premicuu on six-pencent.
D. S. stocks was over twenty per cent. It will be seen
that the actual profit on this loan, at the present market
