Union Call to the Election of 1861.
BY JOHN COLLINS. •
Who can hoar, unmoved, the story
- Of our patriot sires of old,
Pledging, for their country's glory,
Honor, life, and wealth untold'!
Who but loves that dauntless spirit,
Daring England's despot power;
Who would not from them Inherit.
Boldness for the present hour 1
Ilonor , d be their names forever !
Bright upon our history's page ;
{}raven on our hearts, and never
Dimm'd from age to distant age.
By those noble words outspoken
In the cause of Truth and Right,
Ay !•and by that pledge unbroken,
We have risen in our might.
Young and vigorous—undeming,
We have spread from shore to shore,
Where the Southern palms are swaying,
Or by wild Niagara's roar.
Justice—freedom—our true greatness
As we fill this wondrous land,
Naught shall stain our glory's brightness,
None our growing power withstand.
Shall the fires of treason smoulder
Still, the nation's hall within,
While each Southern foe, grown bolder,
. Strives a desperate cause to win 1
Shall we drop our starry banner
Where our fathers fought and fell !
Shall ice make, in foul dishonor,
Peace with traitors—truce with hell 1
No I a million voices thunder
From the mountains, woods and plains ;
4, Death to all whoe'er would sunder •
Union ties for selfish gains.
By the blood; the groans, the anguish
Of each hard•fought battlo.field,
By the wounds of those who languish,
We will never—never yield l')
still, our upward path pursuing,
Faithful to our soared trust,
Press we on ! a world is doing
Elomago to the true and just.
What the martyrs, statesmen, sages
Of the past to us have left,
Let us leave, for future ages,
To our sons, ti priceless gift,
Rally once again for battle !
Piot with drum and bugle ory,
Nat with clash of arms or rattle
Of the death•sbotb hurrying by.
Ours shall be a bloodless warfare,
Votes, not swords, in strife, we draw,
All our aim, the nation's welfare, •
AU our ends, Right—Order--Law
Men ! friends I brothers I day is dawning,
Rise to hail its glorious light I
Shades of even melt in morning,
Never rose a sun more bright I
Lift the voice for Union ever,
Spare no effort, cost, or pain ;
That Rebellion's curse may never •
Drinch our soil with blood again.
Give your votes, your prayers, for freedom,
That no elavc-brcath taint the olr,
That republic, throne, and kingdom
May the rights of man declare.
Let us teach, by high example,
Truth and power go hand in hand ;
Tyrants now no more may trample
On the poor of every land,
Yet one more short struggle ended,
Union votes will win the day ;
Friendship, Faith, and Freedom pleaded,
Ever then shall hold their sway.
Mark the golden age before us—
Riches showered on every hand ;
Earth beneath and heaven o'er us,
Soon will bless our peacefulland.
Freemen ! all your rights defending,
Rally round the nation's choice I
Vote for patriots, pure, unbending—
Faithful to its earnest voice.
When, 'mid shouts of exultation,
He, our honored head, again
Takes his high and well-earned station,
Let the people say, Amen
THE , CITY.
CORONER'S' INVESTIGATION.
THE DEATH OF JAMES CAMPBELL.
Important evidence.
TEE MURDERER STILL AT LARGE.
The coroner and Jury, in the inquiry in what man.
ner and by whom James Campbell; a respectable,
feeble old man was murdered, on Saturday evening
last, while the Democratic torchlight procession was
passing down Chestnut street, resumed the investi
gation yesterday afternoon in the Central Station.
The evidence is positive that Mr. Campbell was
killei by one of the men who took part in the pro
melon. Legally, from the testimony, it was a cruel
and unprovoked murder, as will be seen by the fall
report we present to-day. The murderer was with
the Seventeenth ward delegation. The office was pretty
well filled with :witnesses and spectators.

Dr. Shapleigh sworn. —On Sunday morning last I
made a post mortem examination of the body of an old
and feeble male, at this station; I should think he was
seventy-five yesrs •old ; Le appeared to be that old;
about an inch and a half under tne left ear there
was a transverse contused wound; it hardly extended
through the skin; 1 examined the brain; there was
- no bruise about the scalp ; there was no fracture
of the hone of the skull; I found a clot of blood press
ing on- the bate of the brain; the pressure of this clot •
nporethis important part of the brain, as far as life is
concerned, is. in my opinion, the vanes - of death; the
clot of blood might he .he consequence of the breaking
of a blood-vessel of the brain from concussion of the
blow on the neck or fall; the wound upon the neck, it
was evident, was caused by a blunt instrument; a club,
brick, or stone would have caused such a wound; the
wound on the neck was slight:it was one and a half
or two inches long. and shaded off into the injared skin
about a quiet tsr 01 an inch; I am of the opinion that the
feeble condition of the cid man contributed to his death;
do not think that to a your or healthy man the blow
would have proven .fatal; his feeble state could not
stand the force of the blow. • ' •
The investigation here closed, to be resumed
again this afternoon.
XLSCELLANEOI7IS.
THE BITRD ORPHAN MIna:a—DEDICATORY
RXERCIRES.
THU BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS.
In accordance with .the provisions of the will of
the late Mrs. Eliza Howard Bard, the work of erect
ing a building designed to -be used as an asylum for
the maintenance and education of female orphan
children, has been completed near Cobb's creek, in
Delaware county, three and a quarter miles from
Market-street bridge.
The work of erecting the buildings was begun in
1861. The corner.stone was laid on the lath day of.
October of that year. In July, lees, they were so
far completed as to allow of their occupancy by the
orphans under the care of, the trust. The formal
dedication took place yesterday.
This model charity, at the request of its founder,
has been named "The Bard Orphan Asylum of St.
Stephen's Church," and has been erected ander the
personal tsupervision,of a' building committee con
sisting of Rev. Dr. Ducat:het, .Edward Shippen,
Charles V. Hagner, and Rubley Dunglison, ap
pointed for: the purpose from among the trustees of
the asylum. • ,
The will of the deceased gives preference In an
enjoyment of .the benefits of the Institution tolimee
orphan children who may have been baptised in the
Protestant EpiscoparChurch of Philadelphia,. •
The same class of children baptized in the said
Church in the State . of 'Pennsylvania are provided
for secondly, and provision is made, lastly, for pa
rentless children, without respect to any other de
scription or qualification than that their ages shall
range from four to eight years, and they shall be of
legitimate birth, a necessary requirement in all
CMS of admittance.
If the establishment or the means provided shall
not be sufficient to accommodate all the several
classes of children herein described, each class shall
be preferred in the order which they are herein
mentioned, to the exclusion, - in whole or In part, of
the other classes, except that at all times, and -in
every case, the orphan children of clergymen of the
Protestant Church shall have the preference. By
the term "orphan," for the purposes of the codicil,
• is meant a child whose father is deceased and whose
mother remains a widow, or who may have lost by
deathluoth father and mother. It is directed 'that
all the children received into the asyluee shall be
faithfully instructed, as a part of their education,
in the principles of the Gospel, as they are held and
taught - by the Protestant Episcopal Üb,urch of. the
United States, and that no other system of religion
shall be taught there. •
The rector, church wardens, and vestry of St.
Stephen's Church are authorized to control and
manage the asyluni, and the right reverend bishop
of the diocese is'constituted a • perpetual visitor of
the institution, with full power to inquire into and
correct all existing abuses. The children of the in
stitution will be supported until of a suitable age to
be placed out in families, and instructed in the va
rious employments of life; all expenses for such
support being borne by the establishment.
The value of the estate bequeathed by the will of
Wire. Bard is, estimated at $350,000, of which. the
trustees were authorized -to expend one-half In the
erection and firnishing of the asylum.
The edifice is cruciform, of the early EtigliSh .
gothic style of architecture. It will have an ex
treme length of 261 feet, and an extreme depth of
150 feet. It is composed of three buildings, con
nected by corridors 60 feet long, in such a' manner
that each of the dormitories will receive light and
air from their four sides. To each of these dormito
ries, located on the second floor, are attached nurses'
rooms, wash closets, etc.; the rooms of. the nurses
being so arranged that their occupants will have
complete control over the dormitories. The base
ment, which Is above ground, is twelve feet high;
the second and third stories eighteen feet ; the win
dows reaching from the ceiling nearly to the floor.
The main hall is 260 feetiong, by 15 feet in width ;
and in.the second story of the main building is the
chapel for the asylum and neighborhood, capable.of
accommodating 400 people. In the basement a
large play-roam is fitted up, with simple gymnastic
contrivances; also, a bowling alley. A bathing
apartment is likewise provided on the lower
floor, in which a largo tank 'le constructed, for in
structing the 'children in the art of swimming. •
The main . school room is 30 by 60 feet, and con
nected therewith are four elan rooms, of ample di-
mensions, thd whole so arranged that, by means of a
sliding sash, they may be converted into one large
room. The natural system of ventilation will' be
adopted, and numerous ventilating flues will be
placed throughout the building. Tire only danger
to the building from fire will be on account of'the
gas chandeliers, as this fruitful cause of mischief
will be entirely excluded, with 'that exception—the
processes of cooking, washing, _baking, manu
facturing of gas and steam, etc., being carried on in
out-buildings, 60 by 60 feet, connected with the main
structure by a covered railway.' By means of this
railway prepared meals are sent directly to the
dining room, and numerous articles carried to and
fro at a great saving of time and labor. In addition
to this, there are four stairways, made of fire-proof'
material, and two piazzas, each 120 'feet in length.
In the main building a large room is fitted up, and
centaine the library and family mementoes of the ,
late Mrs: Bard; the °prof site room la a reception par
lax, in which the children may converse with their
friends.
The grounds of the institution cover about forty
eight acres, cne.half of which it is proposed to de
vote to purposes of agriculture, and, the remainder
Is now tastefully laid out. About ten acres of the
premises is a beautiful woodland of forest trees.
The ground possesses[the advantage of being well
watered, and from the springs alone some fifteen or
twenty thousand gallons of water per day may be
lumped into the buildings.
The Stone used in building was quarried on
the ground, and the walls are of the most Sub
stantial oharacter. The exterior of the structure is
of rubble work, and presents a very neat ap
pearance.

Almighty God, with whom do live the spirits of those
who depart hence in the Lord, and WI h whom the
souls of the faithful after they are delivered from the
burdens of the flesh are in joy and felicity, we give Thee
hearty thanks for the good examples of all those Thy
servants, who, having finished their course In faith, do
now rest from their labors.
In particular we would' bless Thy holiname for her
example by whom this charity was founded and en
dowed and who though dead, yet speaketh as well to
the faithful in thy church as to these OhlWreg Who.
from generation to generation. are to enj oy
i the fruits of
herßunty. May we and all those w o profess Thy
name be melted to follow in her footsteps, and to devote.
Oerselvee, as God may give ability, to the instruction.
of the ignorant, the sn.mor of the helpless, and the re
claiming of those who are as sheep gone astray. And
at kength, with all those who are departed in the true
, faitn of Thy holy name, may we hare our perfect con
summation and thee, both in body and soul, in Thy
eternal ancreverlaeting glory; through - Jesus Christ oar
Lord. Amen.
-Almighty Clod, Who host given Thine only Son to be
unto us both a sacrifice for sin and an example of godly
life, give us grace that we may
always receive that his
.inestimable benefit, and also daily endeavor ourselves
:to follow the steps of his most holy life. Mercifully
grant that Thy 1101 r Spirit may in all things direct and
rule the hearte of t wee to whom the care and manage
' meat of this Home for Orphans may be c immitted. 8.9
by Thy special grace presenting them, Thou dost pat
into their minds good desires, so by Thy 'continued
help mar they be enabled to bring the same to good
effect, through Jesus Chrhif our Lord. Amen.; •
0 Almighty Lord! who out of the months of babes
and sucklings halt ordained strength, and mildest in
fants to glorify Thee by their death, strength, ,
and .kill
all vices in the children who shall be trained in this
house. Leave them not destitute; we humbly beseech
Thee, of the manifold gifts of Thy good spirit,.nocaet
of grace tease them always to Thy honor and glory.
Enable then, to follow Thy blessed: Saints in all virtu
ous and godly living; and eo strengthen them by Thy
grace ;kat, by the innocency of tbei lives .and the con
stancy of their fa ith,even unto death; thew may glorify
Thy Holy Name, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
And now, in the name of the Father, and of the Son.
and of the Holy Ghost; we dedicate this house to - the
honor sad glo of Clod, and set it apart as the Orphan's
Home, under the title of "The Bard Orphan Asylum of
St. Stephen's Church."
May Almighty 'God's blessing forever rest upon, it,
and make it the - abode of virtue, religion, and t6pi
nese. Amen.

RECRUITING. " -
The following message was received from- the
Mayor:
"I transmit herewith a communication received
from the • Commissioner of the City Bounty - Fond
relative to continuing the offer of -bounty to volun
teers and enrolled citizens who have furnished sub
.stitutes. The suggestions made• by the Commis
sioner are timely, and should commend themselves
to your immediate action. In other cities and dig
' triets whose quotas are full under all requisitions of
the President, steady efforts are making to procure
additional recruits for the army and navy, and a
like policy should be pursued in. Philadelphia. 'The
scale of bounties recommended for your adoption is
deemed more equitable than the existing system of
•payments, in which there is no discrimination of
amount between enlistments for one or three years'
service."
Accompanying the Mayor's message was the
letter from the Bounty Find Commission, stating
that there is still $650,000 remaining of the appro
priation for bounties; and that should we decide to
continue recruiting wo would suggest a reduction
in. the bounty offered for short terms of service.
The Commissioners recommend as a scale the fol
lowing: For twelve months, $150; for two - years,
$800; for three years, $450 ; and for enrolled citizens
who tarnish substitutes, $lOO $2OO, and $3OO, for the
respective terms of service. Recruiting is now very
active,
and there is a prospect that for the next
month or two it will continue brisk. The ma
chinery Is working effectively.; there is little com
petition from other districts, and the approach of
winter throws men out of employment. At no pe
riod, therefore ; can we have a better prospect for
supplying men lbr our army. Referred to Commit
tee on Defence and Protection. •
