JpOw'Oh'iouM tay, that no word had boon uttered
* em ob Oad added to the ferocity of
the struggle which was now going on amongst us
as a people, the brethren of a common ancestry.
And there, as an unworthy Protestant, In the
presence of their bishop, he made the grate
ful acknowledgement to the only Christian
Church hr the land that had done nothing to
make peace impossible. In the midst of the tun*
moil and confusion attendant upon civil war, no had
wondered what subject he could present to them
that would draw their minds and his mind away for
the time from the sorrowful and perplexing matters
With whioh wo ail as a people are surrounded. He
had chosen with that view as his subject “ The Hast-,
orn World,” whore for some time it had fallon to
his lot to live. The speaker then gave a glowing
account or his voyage'abound the Cape of Good
Hope, and of his visiting the classic spots of the East,
all of which were described—the Great Desert, Mal
ta, the Catacombs, Rome, the Temples of China.
He gave some amusing details of Chinese customs,
pnd described some of the anomalies of Paganism.
He said that he was, In China at the time of war
there, and he found that the despatches from the
War Department in China were as different from
the truth as they were in some other countries.
There was.on one occasion a terrible defeat suffered
by the Chinese. The War Department immedi
ately issued flaming despatches announcing a great
and decided victory. In China the officers of St&to
receive a fixed salary, but t hero is a sum to be added
to this upon their leaving office, which is fixed in a
blue book, contingent that; the officer resists all bri
bery and corruption. He related an incident rela
tive to the sending of letters from the President of
the United States to the Emperor, and the receipt
of his reply.. It was a question with the speaker of
how the reply should be received. Ho informed
some ol the officers, who were to bring the message,
tbatitehould be received with all the honor with
whioh all State papers and officers were received
by Americans. The offleers's reply was that 1 this
way might do for the President of the
United States and . ids kind of people; that they
were only human boings, but that his sovereign was
the Son of Heaven. Knowing this belief of the
Pagans, Mr. Reed, uprm[rece!pt oft he letter, had it
raised up toward heaven, and then he tbok it down
as if leceiving it thence. The long-headed infidel
Pagans believed years ago in communioation
with, absent and dead persons by means of spi
rit-rappings, in table movings, and such things,
and still continue to have faith therein. The
speaker then related the circumstances attend
ing the revolt of the India Sepoys, in September,
186Tthe murdering of the white masters by the
black hired servants; the revolts of the soldiers,
and the killing of their white officers. No black
soldier was allowed a higher grade than sergeant,
and he drew a- comparison from this as to what might
probably occur from thearmyof the blacks in this
country. He concluded his address by saying that
he had attempted to' keep his mind and the minds
. of Ida audience away from the terrible events
which, as a nation, were crowding upon us ; but he
■felt likeone who walks on Yesuvius and sees along
. its entire height, gleaming through crevices,T;he
burning lava, ana docs not know at what in
stantlt will burst forth and swallow him up. There
was a fable, which he had read, of an old man who,
walking one day,in a peaceful valley, was startled
by a prophetic voice whioh told him that at the end
of thirty days, there would be three full days and
three dark nights of rain-upon the earth. That
everyone uponwhom therein fell wonld become
mad, as would also their children, and their child
ren’s childr en. The voice told the old man to hide
himsolf in a cave for the space of the three days of,
rain, and at the end thereof he could again visit
his former abode. At the end of the thirty days,
the old man, following the prophetic voice, entered
theoave and remained there the length of time la
which tho rain, by prophecy, was to fall. At the
end of that lime he came out and entered his accus
tomed habitation; but what a change had come over
the land. He saw brother slaying brother,and afriend
driving a daggor deep into the back of a friend.
The voice of Christianity was raised in eulogy of
these dark and dreadful crimes. As the old man
looked upon them in wonder and in pity, he was
looked Upon with suspicion. He was threatened
with the prison-house and with death. In despair
lie too plunged into the waters which had covered
them all, saying, in a world of madness it is better
to be mad than to be wise. The speaker said such
is tho fable and the audience could make their com
parisons. During his address the speaker was fre
quently applauded.
GRAND DIVISION SONS OP TEMPERANCE.
The twenty-first annual meeting of the Grand

Whereat, The ‘Grand’Division of the 8. of T.\ of the
State of Pennsylvania—an organization originally de -
signed for.fhe protection of,society against the evils of
intemperance—is now, according to lta constitution and
laws, in session, aDd faithfully striving to promote the
interests of the cause which for many years has en
gaged the time -and attention of its members; and
wherees, this Grand Division was orianlzed in 1818, :
held Us firet session in that year, and Jrom that time,
. through good. report and evil report, through sunlight
and darkness, has regularly, met until this, its 21st
annual eession, when it has attuned its majority and
is now fn 1 ol age and maturity ; and whereas, the
occasion being me of extraordinary interest to every ,
■friend of the Order, it .is thought that it should be dis
tinguished by an appropriate minute upon the journal
of the,Grand Division-; therefore, ee it :....
Resolved. Thai this .Grand division gives humble
than Is to the Great Dispenser of all goon to maa, for
the preservation oi our Order through the many viois
eitudes surrounding it during the moat eventful period
of our country’s history, aid for the success Hehas
vouchsafed nr tbs sttuggle of reason against appetite,
m which the Sons of Temperance are engaged.
Resolved,, That the occasion be'improved h6re aiid
now, by each member obitirattng himself anew, to pro
mote the harmony, aild. advance the interests, of the
Order throughout its jurisdiction; and that when ho
goes from tl is to his more immediate field of labor be
willfeelibereepcnsibiiityofa iruaeon of Temperance
resting npoa hint and inciting him to action.'
Resolved, That this Grand Division, as an integral
portion of the -national organization of- North America, -
greatly regrets that ’ any: portion bf its: jurisdiction
shoald by any cause be deprived of a foil and har
monious co operation of all its parts, and .particularly
that fratricidal strife sboiild oivldeihterests'so universal
‘as are those belonging to onr Order Bnt believing that
that same Providence, who has graciouslj-granted ns so
many years of useful life, is working out a lesson for',
the instruction .of the nations of the earth, which for
the time- divides bur family, we bow to the infliction
With: imeek submission, and with patient confidence
await the time when the Union of the States shaii again
unite qur Grand Divisions of North America, and onr
motto L. P. and F. again shed its radiance over tiiß
entire brotherhood ottheiand.
Resoved. That on this day, the 26th of October, 1564
the Grand Division of the State of Pennsylvania, in the
full strength and glory :of its fresh manhood, hereby
Mserts Its loyalty to the Union, in the fall belief that
they, who are not for Rare against it, and because we,
who profess to labor for the good of our feilow-man,
can be consistent in no higher degree than to yield our'
homage and allegiance, while tnue laboring, to the
country that gave us birth, and to the glorious: stars
and stripes beneath whose'beniiicent folds this organi
zation, which inculcates the doctrine of tatal absti
uence from all tnat intoxicate*, was created for the
benefit of fallen humanity.

In Select Council, President Lynd was In the
chair, , - ....... ...
The 'Pennsylvania Railroad Company, lu a com
munlcotlon, called the attention of Councils to the
unfinished condition of the City Railroad. In view
of this, a resolution and ordinance to lease the road
were both referred.
The Commissioner of City Property was autho
rized by ordinance to dispose of city property at
Eleventh and Lombard streets.
An ordinance appropriating $2,200 to the Board
of Health.
The special committee la whom was entrusted
the Investigation of various abuses In-the Alms
house reported that they had no existence.
A series of resolutions, from the committee to re
port the sense of Councils on the death' of Major
General , Blrnoy, expressed the regret felt by our
citizens at the death of a brave and gallant officer
who, by his ability and patriotism, has endoam
himself to the memories of the citizens of his native
city. • -
An ordinance from the Street Cleaning Commit
tee, appropriating $lB,OOO to the Street Cleaning
Department, the $lOO,OOO appropriation having been
exhausted, was passed.
An ordinance was passed transferrlng to the Wills
Hospital certain donations made to It, but horeto
iore in the city treasury.
Another ordinance, for the erection of a culvert In
Franklin row, was adopted, after much delay from
wantof a qoorum.
. The bill making an appropriation of $85,000 to pay
for labor on the Chestnut-street bridge.
A bill requiring the Medical Department, now
occupying the Ohrlstlan-street Hospital, to vacate
it m . favor of the Provost Guard, who wish to use it
as a barracks, was . postponed.’ It was asserted
that, although the hospital is not now used for the
purposes to which it was originally devoted, still It
affords a home and . a school for maimed soldiers,
where they are taught telegraphing and other pro
fessions or callings which may enable them to gain
a livelihood. In this view—that of humanity to men
maimed in the service—most of the members op
posed the consideration of the bill, until it could be
ascertained whether. it was absolutely necessary
that .the Medical Department should, vacate lt v or
whether the conflict of authority between the par
ties Interested could not be arranged to their mu
tual benefit.
A bill from Common Council, authorlzing'a loan
Of *1,000,000 for the extension of the City Gas
Works, passed second.readlng and was, then post
poned. . ... .
A bill from the same source, authorizing the con
structlon of a sewer at CallowhlU and Twenty-se
cond streets, was passed. Several other bills from
Common Council were acted on.
Mr. Lane (U.) moved to take up the highway ap
propriation bill. This bill, which appropriates S9L
-000 to the department, has been discussed and re
discussed for the past three weeks, and has been most
stubbornly contested by the Opposition, who have
fancied that; they discovered a “ snake” under its
fair exterior. . -Although it is a well-known fact that
the Reed-street culvert Is still a gaping chasm, pro
mising damage some of these days to life or limb,
and that numerous streets need repairing, refuge is
taken under an aot of the Legislature which Is said
to prohibit any operations on the highway after No
vember until the coldest days or winter are passed,
and under the assertion that the money Is intended
for political purposes. By refusing to vote, calls of
the house, questions of , order, etc., they succeeded
for the fourth time yesterday in postponing the bill
Adjourned. . .

EBSIQNATION Ok ME. EP.IGOS.
MriXopaHniN (O.) presented the resignation of
Mr. Briggs. It Is as follows :
,T° lhe President and Members of the Common Council
■ of the City of Philadelphia: *
Gkxtlbmkn : Feeling that I can no longer con
selentlously support the policy of the National Ad
ministration touching the question of slavery, I
deem it my duty to resign ray membership in your
body. In order that what I have just written may
not be misconstrued, allow me to add that I am wil
ling that the whole resources of the country shall be
placed at the disposal of the President for national
defence, but not a cent for emancipation, except it
bo in the line of military necessity. “
Resident, “ To whom it may con
ecm,» in which he intimates that he will not con
slaer any [proposition which embraces the reatora
tlon of peace except upon “ the abandonment of
Slavery," I assuredly do not endorse.
I am now, as I have always been, opposed to
a ° arrtont friend of emancipation,
but hold to the opinion that tho consummation of
the latter should he left to the teachings of Chris
tianity ana the onward march of civilization, and
o?t be made the pretext for the continuance of
the war, involving as.it will the further saeriftce of
the lives of our fellow-citizens—to say nothing of
the tremendous national debt, which Is dally aug
menting, and other kindred burdens which the :
people will have to bear.
However desirable emancipation may be, when
ln M ro ,Per way, we should uot. l’or one
"°n, r > jeopard the lives of onr fellow-citizens on that
account alone. Entertaining these views, and be

Graff, Bennett, & Go. vs. H. N. Burroughs. This
was an action of assumpsit, brought by plaintiffs,
who do business In Pittsburg, against H. N. Bur
roughs, of this city, to recover damages for the
breach of an alleged contract for the sale of 1,000
tonsef pig Uoa. Th? evidence consistedchJefiyof
letters between' the' defendant and his agont, John
Morehead, of Pittsburg. The letter authorizing
Morebead to sell the I,OOD tons was dated *®ctober
W, 1862, and this authority was reyoked by a letter
dated October 15, 1862 (the next day), but sale, if
made at all, had already been made before the letter
or withdrawal was received. The main question
In the case was the offer ofthe de
fendant had been accepted by' the plaintiff
on the loth, That offer was to sell the iron for
oath, deliverable on board cars at Columbia, while
■the plaintiff had suggested that the Iron should
be weighed at Pittsburg. The defendant refused to
deliver, alleging: first, that his wlthdrawal'Uadbeen
received beiore his offei had boon accepted; and, se
cond, that It was never in fact accepted, the propo
sition that the iron was to be weighed at Pittsburg
having been made a condition ofthe purchase. The
plaintiffs contended that this proposition was a
mere suggestion, and not a part of their acceptance.
- The Judge charged the jury,'on this point: That If
the plaintiffs had put their acceptance In writing,
and it had contained a proposal to change tiwplaoef
of delivery, he would charge that thore had been no
consummation of the contract; but that as It was
only suggested orally tho question was for them. If
they found that there was a contract between the
parties tho measure of damages for Its breach would
be the difference between the contract price and the
market value on the day of. its breach. Verdict for
defendant. .

[Before Mr. Alderman Welding.]
ASSAULT AND BATTERY.
I olyard Degan was arraigned yesterday on the
charge or having committed an assault and battery
on Henry W.(Green, at the Democratic Headquar
ters, on Wednesday evening. It seems that Mr.
Green was in company with Mr. R. Claiborne, a
regular-reporter .of the; German Democrat. Both
were present in order to report the speech of the
Hon. Reverdy Johnson. The place was filled to Its
utmost capacity, so that the-reporters could not ob
tain accommodations. ; In the effort to get a place
where they might see and hoar, young G roan opened
the door of a priVato box, but finding that place
full, retired. In doing so, It is alleged the defendant
stepped up to him, and, using an epithot, struck
him a blow with an open band that sent him reeling
a distance of ten leet. , Mr. Claiborne expostulated,
whereupon the defendant threatened to strike him.
An appeal was made to Colonel McCandless, at
which time, as is alleged by Mr. Claiborne, the de
fendant steppod.up, and. In the presence of Colonel
McO., threatened to 'strike'him. The reporters re
treated, and thus the semi-pugiltstie' scene termi
nated. The defendant was bound over in the sum
of $BOO to answer at court.
