A Voice from the Army.
» JCST HEVORB THE BATTLE, MOTUKR."
Just before election, brothers, _
We are thinking most of you,
While on picket, or in trenches,
“ With the enemy In view."
Bravely we have fought and suffered,
And with wounds and fevers died,
That the bright, tri-colored banner,
Still may float in starry pride.
"Cinoßrs— Listen, brothers, you may never
Hear from us in life again,
But oh I you’ll not forget us,’brothers,
If we’re numbered with the slain.
.Every night. In dreams we see you
In those pheasant N orthern homes,
■Where the peaceful dawn of morning
Brings no stirring roll of drums,
costs a pang of sorrow
That ungrateful men there be
Who would sell their country’s honor
And her soldiers’ liberty.
Chorus—Tell them weoan face the bnllets
That their “Southern friends”, shall send,
But, oh! we’ll hot forget them, brothers,
When this “ cruel war” shall end.
All along the rebel earthworks \
Wo have savage shoutings heard,
You will scarce believe it, brothers,
But “ McClellan” was the word.
Think of that, ye Northern voters,
Will yo make such demons gloat 1
Ask our fallen comrades’widows,
They will tell you how to vote.
Chorus—Sonless,mothers, weeping sisters,
Balse imploring hands to you,
And, oh! you’ll notflorget them, brothers,
And destroy their country too.
Let the traitors keep their pity,
We are soldiers, and can bear
Ail the hardships of the straggle,
And have courage yet to spare;
And we ask no wiser helmsman
At the ship of State than he
Who has paid, and clothed, and fed us,
As the Army of the Free. ‘ '
Chorus—Hark lit Is the bugle sounding, •
Grant still finds us work t&do,
But, ohl vje’ll not forget those traitors,
When this bloody war Is thro’,

An Answer to Mr. Xurtlirop's llnestions.
To ffte Editor of The Press:
Slit: is Mr,- Northrop has closed his debate I
trust you will allow me to: answer, in my own way,*
the questions he propounded to Judge Kelley:
1. The Constitution of the. United States within
its limitations is the supremo law of the land, and
the only bond of the Union of the States,
This Constitution, and the laws of the United
States which Bhall be made in pursuance thereof,
and all treaties made or wuioh shall be made, under
the authority of the United States, shall be the
supreme law of the land ; and the judges in every
State shall be bound thereby, anything In the Con
stitution or laws of aDy State lo the contrary not
withstanding.— Art.Bth, Sec. 2d.
It is the legal expression of Union already exist
ing, not between the staff's, hut between the people
of the States, (ordained, not by the States in their
sovereign capacity, but emphatically, as the pre
amble declares, by the people of the United States.—
1 Wheat, 324; 6 Dali., 277. It'required not the af
firmance, and could not be negatived by the State
Governments. — i HTienf.,4o4 ; 2 Du/1., 471 ; 6 Wheal,,
414), and establish;a 'to make that Union “more
perfect."— Preamble to Constitution,
2. The only mode by which the Constitution oan
be altered or amended,is presented by the Instru
ment itself.
The Congress, whenever two-thirds of both Houses
shall deem it necessary, shall propose amendments
to this Constitution, or on the application of the
Legislatures or two-thirds of the several States,
shall call a convention for proposing amendments,-
which, In either ease, shall be valid to all Intents
aßd purposes as part of this Constitution, when rati
fied by the. Legislatures of three-fourths of the seve
ral Stai es, or by conventions of three-fourths thereof,
as the one or the other mode of ratification may he
proposed by the Congress.—Art, 6/A.
S. ‘Whenever any department of Government ex
ercises any power beyond or antagonistic to the Con
stitution, it is revolution.
No; it is either an unconstitutional exercise of
power or usurpation. Congress, which Is a depart
ment of the Government, may pass an aot which
the Supreme Court will ultimately affirm to he un
constitutional. Till such affirmance, Congress is
exercising a power unauthorized by the Constitu
tion, and therefore beyond and antagonistic to it.
But this is not revolution. So the President may
exeroise a power unauthorized by the Constitution
and so exercisable only by'some one else. But this
is not revolution, but usurpation , which is the ad
verse assertion of some right or privilege belonging
to another.
Revolution Is a radical change in the Constitution
or mode of government, effected by forcible resist
ance on the part of the governed to the existing
authorities.
4. A successful-revolution against the Constitu
tion by those in power subverts the principles of our
Government, produces anarchy, and establishes a
despotism.
As there is no such thing as a revolution against
the Constitution by those in power, it cannot be the
cause of anarchy, and establishment of a despotism.
Ex nihito nihil Jit.
5. The theory of the equality of the negro with
-the white man is not a justifiable principle of revo
lution.','..--
A revolution is an act on tie part of the governed
arising from dissatisfaction with the existing autho*
Titles ; it is justifiable only when their measures,
being inherently wrong, produce more suffering and
calamity than the forcible prevention of them will.
Revolution implies, therefore, a reasonable expecta
tion that the force to be used will prevent the given
measures from future operation, Tbe theory of the
equality of the negro with the white man is not a
governmental measure, and so cannot be classed
among the justifications of revolution.
The questions proposed were as follows:
l. Are you In favor of the restoration of the
Union of these States, with their rights and powers
as they were at the breaking out of the rebellion 1
The provisions of the Constitution respecting
slavery were inserted through a compromise. This
compromise did not settle the question respecting
slavery. Neither did the second compromise of
1819, nor the third compromise of 1850. A compro
mise implies a prior conflict or preferences, and that
one party yields somewhat of preference for, , in con
sideration of the other’s yielding somewhat, of pre
ference against, a given measure. As the people of
some of the slave States have attempted to re
sume what they had yielded, and have taken up
arms to make the attempt good, and so settle the
question In accordance with their original prefe
rence, I am in favor not of a fourth useless attempt
to compromise, but of settling the question in ac
cordance with the original preference of the people
of the free States, and thereby removing effectually
the cause of diversities and war. I am In favor,
therefore, of amending the Constitution so that no
State Can establish or maintain any form of slavery
within its limits, and will then be willing that the
revolted slave States should come back, with the
same Tights and powers as the free.
2. Do you regard as constitutional, and do you
approve oi the exercise- ofthe military and civil
power of the Federal Government to create and
•establish a new State out of part of an old one ?
So long as the people of a State exercise the func
tions ofState sovereignty under the Constitution,
-they are entitled to all the privileges secured to
them In that capacity by that iistrument. Pre
mising this, “no new State-shall be formed or
erected within the jurisdiction of any State ” with
out the consent of the Legislature thereof concur
ring with the consent of Congress. But when the
people of a State, or a sufficient part of them, are
exercising the functions of State sovereignty ad
versely to the Constitution, they cease to be entitled
to any of the privileges secured to them in that ca
pacity by that Instrument. They are no longer en
titled by their Legislature to demand that their con
sent shall first be given. It remains, therefore, to
Congress to give all the consent necessary. Under
these circumstances, I answer the above question in :
the affirmative.'
S. Do'you approve of all or any of the twenty
three acts of Congress, each having for its object
the declared purpose ol giving to the negro all the
Tights, immunities, and privileges which have hith
erto been enjoyed hy the white men only 1
I have not heard of any one act, or of twenty-three
acts, which unite in giving to the negro all the
Tights, immunities; and privileges which have hither
to been enjoyed by the white men . only, I cannot,
•therefore, answer the question. ' - ,
4. Are you prepared to declare yourself in- favor
of the military, power as superior to the civil power,
on theplea of military or any other necessity 1
Yes. In all cases where the Constitution and the
laws pf Congressi passed by authority of the Con
stitution, confer on the military power permission
to do so. •
5. Are you.prepared to defend, upon the-plea of
military necessity, the suspension of the civil power,
so that the right of personal liberty or security of
property Is held only by the frail tenure of . the Pre
sident’s pleasure 1
in ail cases where the Constitution, and the laws of
Congress passed by authority of the Constitution,
•give the President permission to judge what per
sons shall be deprived of liberty, and what property
shall bo appropriated, and to arrest the one and
take the other, I do and shall defend the lawfulness
of his action,
I ; am, sir, yours truly, Iff.

Document for Intelligent Voters.
TRANCIS P. BLAIR’S STATEMENT OP HIS INTERVIEW
WITH GENERAL M’OLBLLAN.
Silver Spring, October 5.
To the EdHors of , the National Intelligencer :,
Dear Sirs': You give In. your paper, from “a
New York journal,” what purports to be an
™ « Paeeed in conversation between'General
-v.?,,i an n , a^L <i when I visited' New York,
in 8 ™? 1 ™ , of Jdly last. It la egrogiously erro- •
important points.vAs you evidently
attribute some consequence to what is termed mv
1 t’«Bthe S itatotoTubl”S
“ statement of its object and
. Twent to New York to heal the divisions in the
Dnion party, by presenting my views to the leading''
men there, who had in their hands the
giving direction to various and large aectfonsOfthSt
party.. I concur In the opinion reoentl? mcnresaed
by General Grant, ihaVunion in theNortlf would
-quickly quell the rebellion, and restore peaoe and
union to the whole country. To contribute my mire
to effect what I knew to be the wish of every pa
triot, I repaired to New York to make an effort at
conciliation. I went to the leading men and the lead
:ingorgans of public opinion there to ascertain in
what v ay harmony would best he attained. I be
lieve that united opposition to the rebellion could
be concentrated on no other candidate for the Presi
dency than on the man against whom the enemy
bad declared war because the nation had made -
Ailm its Ohief Maglßtrate, and for whom the de
legates of .the great party electing in the first
instance had again given its preference by renomi
nation. I went on this errand without consalt-,
ing the President—without giving him, directly or
Indirectly, the slightest Intimation of my object,
=and, of course, without his authority. I apprised
■no one but my son. When! reached New York
,1 first saw the. editors of the Evening Fast.' This
•press had evidenced dissatisfaction with the Admin
istration. . Its conductors felt that they had good
around of discontent. I explained to Mr. Bryant the
attitude of the President, aB I understood it, in re
ft rn.ce to the matters that aggrieved him, both as
regarded vital measures for the safety of the Repub
lic and of minor concerns of a personal character. I
ffnurd Mr. Bry ant the honest patriot which the:whole
•of his-life had Bbown him. He opnsideredT'Mr;
I.incoln, with all abatemen ts, the only man oh whom
•we eoulu rely forth© maintenance of the cause in
which we had embarked—for the union of its
strength, and restoration of the National Govern
ment. I next- flaw-Mr.' Behnett, of the Herald.
1 had a long, agreeable, enlightened conversa
iionwlth him. I expressed my views with earnest
ness and frankness, and as he did those he en
tertained—not forgetting old scores of differences—
and as I, left his office he gave me in prettyemphatic
raucous - Scotch accent his last words for the Pre
sident : “ Tell him to restore McClellan to the
army and ho will carry tho election by default.” I
called on Mr. Greeley. My Interview with him
satisfied me thathla best efforts would not be want
, tag to secure the peace of the country through the
re-election of the President. Through Mr. Barlow,
the Intimate personal and political friend of Gene
ral McClellan (who was not in the city), I let the
General know that I would be gratified by an op
portunity of conversing with him. He came to
town and visited me in my lodging at the- Astor
House. I had an hour’s conversation-with him
which I prefaced by telling him the motives which
had brought me to New %ork, as I have Kted
and P Et sf ln K distinctly to him
that I did not come from Mr. Lincoln; had no au
thority or even consent from him to make re
presentations or overtures of any sort-to him;
that he had not been apprised of my visit or
P''i r r£L B, i\ w k*'fi l was in part to advise with him (the
General) as one whom no knew to be his friend with
{ h ® ,CT? 11 S lnterestsana his own. I told
t”™ that I had little doubt he would be the nominee
of the,Cbioago Convention, and that if he accepted
he would be defeated, and, If defeated, his fate would
be that of allpre viously defeated candidates who had
played for the Presidency—Clay, Calhoun, Webster,
and the rest; that although aspiration to the chief,
place In the Republic was an honorable ambition,-
there was an instinct In the publics mind which always'
.excluded from general confidence any who sought it
with the least suspicion of selfishness at the expense
of great-national considerations; and, If the public
once pronounced Its ban by votings him down as
having sought the place, without duly weighing Its
great exigency, especially in such a revolutionary
crisis as the present he could never rise again. . I
urged that he ought to consider that at this moment a
schism of the Union party of the North, on the issue
of the Presidency, was: looked to everywhere, at
home and abroad, as the only way possible through
Which the rebellion could accomplish its objeot—the
dissolution of the Union ; that I believed that he,
the General, was the only man who had a position
that enabled any party in the North to rally on, to
command a force that could make a breach in the
patriotic Union party, so as to defeat or in any. es
sential degree enfeeble it, to give success or even
the hope to the enemies of our Government, foreign
or domestic ; and on this ground I appealed to him
to withhold his name from the so-called peace men
who were soon to assemble at Chicago. I expressed
the opinion that it was his duty to his country, and
therefore his own true policy, as it regarded his
fame and aspirations to public _ honors, to ad
dross a not© to Mr* liiacolQi aslting a command
In the army—declaring at the . same time that
he did not seek. It with a view ,to recommend
himself-to a Presidential nomination; that I
thought, and hoped he too thought,'that no man,
especially In revolutionary times, ought to lead an
army in the field and aim through the strength of
that position at onoe to grasp the civil power of the
Government; that no man had ever marohed from
the battle-field to the oivll power with an army
which he had disciplined and led In person, that did
not find himself able and willing to use that army
to secure that position. I urged,“therefore, that if he
wished to exert the high military attainments which
his friends, and I among the rest, believed, belonged
to him, for the benefit of his country in its life and
death struggle, that he should abandon the idea of
being a candidate for the Presidency If he enter
tained it, and return to servioe in the field. I said
If the President refused it, he would then be respon
sible for the consequences. If he assented, the re
sult would be that be would confound, his enemies,
who had, as I believed, urged on the War Commit
tee and impressed it on the public mind that the
delays of the great army he had commanded in
achieving decisive results were the -consequence of
an ambition to; clutch the Presidency by lingering
out the war, and his command to the end or the
Presidential term, that he might make,the prestige
and hold the means, to effect his purpose.
. This was the’ scope of my argument to General
McClellan on the topics referred to. It was honest
ly meant,’and designed to promote the public good
and.his own. He seemed so to consider it. Dis
claiming ,any dtsire-for a Presidential candldaoy,
he thanked me for the interest I had always taken,
as his friona, in the relations of whichT spoke; said
that the suggestions I had made were worthy of
deep consideration, and they would be well weighed;
that he was called to the country again by a, sick
child, and regretted he could not probably see me
again. I mentioned to Mr. Lincoln, on. my return,
the attempt I had made atthe conciliation of parties
in New York, with a view to defeat the Opposition
in the North; by restoring harmony among all favor
ing the crushing of the rebellion by arms, and told'
Mm I thought it probable General McClellan might,
write to him In respect to himself. He neither ex
pressed approval nor disapprobation of what I-had
done, but,his manner was as courteous and as kind
as General McClellan’s had been.

As a committee appointed by the excursionists to
celebrate the opening of the Philadelphia and Erie
Railroad, we have adopted the following to express
our sense of gratification and thanks; for'the plea,
sure and Instruction derived ;from our trip during
the 4th, 6th, 6th, 7th, and Bth October, 1861:
jßesolved, 1, That we tender our grateful thanks to
Mr." J.- G, Moorhead, tbe president of ihe Philadelphia
and Erie Bailroad Company, and to those gentlemen
who assisted him, for the liberal and generous enter
tainment they provided, and for their kind and untiring
efforts to contribute to our comfort and enjorment.
Resolved, 2. That to Mayor Metcalf,the Conncils.and
the people of Erie, we return our giatefal and sincere,
thanks for their warm welcome and generous hospi
tality,.as well in their private houses as at the hotel
and banquetting hall, and for their delightful and In
structive water excursions, given us in and round the
capacious harhor of. Erie. : ,
Resolved, 3, That it was with a high sense of gratified
feeling that we witnessed the greetings of our fellow
citizens at Erie and the surrounding counties. by l-oar of
cannon; strains ofpatrioiicmnslc. and eloquent speech,
all expressive of their, joy at the completion of the great
artery of travel and trade that la id bring into circula
tion the people and products of the middle and extremest
sections of our great Common wealth; a consummation
that should have been reached years enough ago to have
now made the population: of >the city of Erie at least
: fifty thousand Instead of one-fourth that number, and
to have added to that of Philadelphia an equal amount
of people, with a corresponding extension of theioity. :
Resolved, 4, That we witnessed with equal surprise
- and pleasure a rail way of 288'miles in length, located
and mitde, : with excellent judgment and skill, from
•Snnbnry to Erie, so high above the streams as to be se
cure from ireshets, so low as to he without high bridges
or deep cuttings or high embankment-, wiihont blow
ing off any rocky mountain bluff or driving a single
tunnel; but made along the hillside, the dirt dug from
one side of the road filling np the other ; and: withal
the grades were so easy to the summit that the Alleghe
nies were gained and pasßtd‘without being seen; all
bringing home to us the conviction that the only causes
of the'long delay of this great work bad .been hut the
inadequate excuse of a vast of the confidence and capi
tal of.the public. 0
Resolved, 5, That wetender to the people of Loek
haven for their cordial welcome and hospitality, and to
all the towns aiong -tbe whole route, our thanks for
their gratifying greetings, evincive of their pleasure at
thus being connected at once with: the tide-water or the
Delaware, and with a harbor on the great northwestern
lakes; happy in the prospect of their surely coming
prosperity, with increase of domestic comforts to be de
rived from the markets opened to the sale of their lum
ber, coal; oil, and iron ere, and next in succession to
their agricultural prod ucts, when tl ese almost unbroken
forests, felled by the hand of industry, shall become
smiling fields of pasturage and grain.
Resolved, 6. Thati in onr opinion, judging from all
we have witnessed, the tasteful tourist .can find on this
single railroad line of 451 mites all that can best afford:
him pleasure, through, the varied scenes of cultivated
hills and valleys of .Chester, Lancastei, Dauphin,
Northumberland, Lycoming, and Clinton counties, and.
a rarer and fresher delight while following the wind
ings of the streams among continuous mountains in the
district called “Wild Cat,'.'where all is yetheidun
der the dark dominion of primeval forests; andif tra
versed in the early days of October, these will be beheld ,
with surpassing wonder, when autnmn’s ieafy drapery
has assumed the varied colors of the rainbow, contrast
ing indeepest green, yellow, and scarlet, or blended by
Intermediate shades- To all who enjoy such scenes we
can but say, Visit them while nature there reigns su
preme, before .they are changed by the magic wand
of indmstiy, and then again and again, In coming
years, to mark the transformations; and. while thus
allured by the charms of nature, forget not the kindly
duty of cultivating feelings that shall cause the people
of all sections ol the State better to know and love
each other,- and to bind us together by chains even
stronger than that composed of the golden links of com
mercial intercourse and Interest.

entertainments of their cars, as we pat sed through some
of the wildest and most picturesque scenery of Penn
sylvania, as rising upon the mountains and overlook
ing the valleys of the Catawisßa and ihe sources of the
Little Schuylkill, and as descending along the valleys
of the Quakake and Lehigh.
3. Resolved, That it was with great gratification that
we witnessed in this region the evidences of an earnest
industry -and a liberal enterprise, which.are rapidly
converting these recently wild solitudes into thicklv
peopled communities of useful and prosperous men and
happy families; and beheld without jealousy that here
were intermingled with ours those resources which
were alike to swell the . common dividends, to develop
the treasures heretoiore hidden in our mountains, and
to add to the taxable resourcesand strength of our Com
monwealth. ; .
4, Besotoed, That after having passed over these
railroads, we were forcibly impressed with the convic
tion that they are all most important and essential
means for the development of the mineral, coal, and
other products of our Commonwealth.
6. Resolved, That it was with a peculiar pleasure
that we witnessed the care and skill that had been de
voted by the presidents, superintendents, and engineers
to place and maintain these roads and their bridges in a
high'condition of strength and security, so that in pass
ing over the road-, and even the high bridges of the
Cat&wista, the sensations of. enjoyment in beholding
the wild scenery, and the heights and depths beneath
or alongside the track, canstd no thrill of apprehension
of danger; while all we beheld Invite the tourist, seated
in an easy car, running upon a smooth rail, to witness
some of the grandest mountain scenes of our country.*

When the Israelites worshipped In the Teamm
Jerusalem, the service of this day wasTquaiiv
solemn and splendid. It was the only day thrbmrh. !
out the year on which even tho Cohen Hagodoi
(Hlghprlest) presumed to enter the most ~holy sanc
tuary of the temple, or to pronounce the reverenced
and sanctified name of the Deity, whloh at any other
time it was unlawful even for him to utter. The
glories of this day are- commemorated In the musaf
or midday service ol the synagogue. . . .
According to the Jewish tradition, also, the Your
Klppur, even before the, giving of fchelawy was a day
of atonement and pardon,. Adam did penance and
was pardoned on this day. Abraham entered the
covenant or the circumcision on this day.: Moses,
after he had broken the first tables, ascended the
Mount again on the first day of Elui, sVthat the se
cond forty days expired with the Your Ktppur. The
eye isailotted to solemn feasting, and at sunset the

IiT 1 !. or complete strangers, salute
other with brotherly love and sincerity. If
any dispute exists between the Jews, it Is obligato
ry on them to become reconciled-before either of
them presumes to appear In the pretence of-Uls God.
. The law which ordains the observance of the day.
likewise commands the Jew “to afflict his soul.”
The affliction.of the soul by means of the body, ac
cording to Jewish custom, bohsists in abstaining
from five Indulgences—eating and drinking, bath
ing, perfuming, wearing shoes, and sexual enjoy
ment. The observance of the festival is most strict
by every one who claims the name of-Jew, and even
those who make light of other observances through
out the year, pay due regard 'to this day. . The ex
ercises in the synagogue are of a, striking and Im
pressive ' character, the edifice is thronged with
worshippers, the ministers and officials are draped
in white shrouds, while prayers of lamentation and
Senitenoe are heard on all sides. The servioes are
ivided into five parts—the kol nidri,or eve servioe
for Sunday.night; the sharcheris, or morning servioe;
the musaf, or midday, service ; the mincha, or after
noon service; the neta, or conclusion.

CETCKET MATCH.
A match at cricket was contested at Camden, yes
terday, between the, first eleven of the Chippewa
Club, and the second eleven (with two players from
the first eleven) of the Philadelphia Club. The
tame resulted in a decisive victory for the PhilaA
elphia Club, In one innings. The play was rather
below the usual standard of both clubs, that of the
Chippewa, 1 especially, being very inferior. Messrs.
Howe and Hunt, however, of the Philadelphia
eleven, and Messrs, Jarvis and Wallace, of the
Chippewa, made a fine display at the bat, all four
earning their scores well. The bowling was better’
than the-batting, Messrs, Hunt and Large, being
very successful with tbe ball. Wewere sorryto see
one of the members of the Chippewa Club Indulge
in the reprehensible practice of bowling ground
balls. The same ten-pin style of play has been
adopted In some recent matches by a member of
another prominent club In this city. -This practice
Is, to say the least, n'ot at all chivalrous, and Is dis
creditable alike to these bowlersand their dubs.
The following Is the score of yesterday’s match :

POCKET-PICKING.
Yesterday afternoon Frederick P. Dodd, a young
man hailing from Mackerelville, Fourteenth ward.N.
York, was arraigned at the Central Station on the
charge of picking pookets at Sixth and Chestnut
streets on Saturday night. Quite a number of per
sons were robbed during the pushing of the crowds
that thronged the streets as the great Union pro
cession passed hy. Two persons testified at the
hearing yesterday. Mr.Benj. Franklin, wheelwright,
testified that he was standing in the crowd, and sud
denly there was great pushing ; he made the best of
his way out, and in doing-so pulled his hands out or
. his pockets; in a moment he felt somebody else’s
hands [shoved in there ; the prisoner is the per
son nearest him at the time; there were two of
them together; he charged the prisoner, at the time,
with picking his pocket, but the allegation was de
nied. Mr. Franklin lost $36.70, a due bill, and some
other papers.
Solomon Olsner, a Jew, was called to the stand.
This witness tappeared-at the Central Station of
Sunday and gave Information that he had been rob
bed. The following scene occurred.
Question. “Wore you robbed on Saturday
night I” ■-v: '
Answer. “1 have holiday to-day, and will not
testify.”
“ Holiday! What do you mean by that 1”
“Well, I have holiday.”
“Did you not complain at this office yesterday
that you had been robbed on Saturday night 1”
“ Yes, sir.”
“ Well, why do you refuse t’o testify now 1”
“ I have holiday,” was the reply. “I can give no
evidence.” '
“Let me understand'you,” said the alderman.
“ Do you refuse to testify In this ease 1”
“Yes, sir,” replied the witness.
“Then,” responded the magistrate, “I shall have
to lock you up.”
At this stage of the proceedings a person stepped
to the bench and whispered something in the ear
of the alderman, whieh elicited the following reply:
“I cannot help it if ho is a Jew ; he certainly
came here on the Christian Sabbath and entered his
complaint. The law of this country does not ac
knowledge any Jewish holidays; he must either
testify or I will lock him up.” ~
.The witness then answered the questions of the
Alderman as follows:
“ Were you at Sixth and Chestnut on Saturday
evening'?!’ ... „■ . J
“Yes, sir.” _
“ Did you lose your pocket-book ?”
: “Yes, sir.” '
“ How much did it contain i”
“ Twenty-seven Obllara.”.
“ Is the prisoner the man who robbed you ?’>
“Yes, sir.” /
The case here closed, and the prisoner was held to
bail. , ■■ - - ~v >■
i It was stated “yesterday that the prisoner and a
number of others of his stripe arrived from New
York a short time since, and they had their assumed
nameß placed-,, on the extrar assessments in the
Fourth ward, and probably In other wards.
MALICIOUS MISCHIEF.
A young man giving the name of Richard Rice
was arraigned on Sunday on the charge of mali
cious mischief. It seems that' as the great Union
torchlight procession was turning Fifth and Walnut
streets the prisoner amused himself by cutting the
capes of 'a number of the Republican Invlnolbles,
Several of the capes were slitto the extentof several
Inches. The accused was caught In the act. He was
committed to answer at court. .
[Before Mr. Alderman Butler. 1
MURDEROUS ASSAULT:
* Yesterday morning- William Elliott and Mary
Logue were arraigned on the charge of committing

Hoover. It seems,;that Hoover was knooked:down

for several hours, , The affair occurred near Sixth
and Poplar streets late on Saturday night. It is
alleged; that the female urged ■ Elliott to kill
Hoover. The parties were hound over to answer.
[Before Mr. Alderman Holme. 1
