Alderman Beitler.3 THE ENLISTING BUSINESS. On Saturday afternoon two men, glvingthenames of Ralph Walsh and Michael Houghton, were ar raigned at the Central Station on the charge o attempting to fraudulently enlist a young man named John E. Herring, fbrmerlyof the rebel army, from which he had deserted. It seems that Herring was born In Florida, and pressed, as he says, Into the rebel army. He deserted and oame Northlnsearoh of employment, and was finally engaged on a farm in New Jersey. On Friday last, while crossing in a ferry steamer from Camden, he got into conversa tion with Mr. Houghton, who was a passenger, and to whom the stranger related his adventures. Upon arriving In this city he proceeded to Mr. Hough ton’s residence, on Christian street, and In a short time Mr. Walsh was introduced as a person who could have him properly enlisted. The young man slept in the bar-room at Walsh’s tavern, and on Saturday morning was taken to McNally & Co., substitute brokers, In Chestnut street, above Fourth, He was to receive $350. The recruit was taken to the provost marshal’s, at Frankford. On the way he was told to say that he came from Montreal, Canada. Upon being closely questioned by the marshal, the young man could not think of the name of the place he was to hall from. He hesitated, and finally related the entire narrative of his adventures. This led to the arrest of Walsh and Houghton. The worst fea ture of the cate Is that after the reorult had been received at Camp Oadwalader he was to get a pass for five days, which would allow Mm an opportu nity to desert. It Is alleged that an arrangement for the pass had or would be made with a lieutenant at the camp. Though there does not appear to be any legal evidence implicating the defendants In any felonious transaction, yet the magistrate felt it his duty to have the matter further investigated. There being some doubt In his mind aB to any au thority under the State law, he required the de fendants to enter ball in the sum ol $3,600 each to appear beibre Mr, United States Commissioner Smith, on Tuesday at noon. Bail having been en tered, the defendants were liberated. WIFE CRUELLY TREATED. A man named' Joseph Orr was arraigned on Saturday afternoon, at the Central Station, on the charge of cruelly beating hte wife. The parties live on Trout street, formerly Pine alley. It Is alleged that on Friday Orr threw a large-Blzed sancer at his wife. It struck her on the elbow and chipped off a piece of the bone. The defendant was also charged with kicking and beating his wife In a most un merciful manner, threatening to kill her, ete. He was bound oyer In the sum of #1,500 to answer. CBefore Mr. Alderman Cloud. 1 THE O’ROURKE FAMILY AG ATS. Patrick O’Rourke was arraigned on Saturday on the charge of participating in the'dlsgraoeful riot on Christmas day on Richmond street, Ntatoonth ward. It Is alleged that he was very aotlve among the rioters, and was heard to offer to bet one hun dred dollars that his son could-“llek any man of his weight and size In the whole orowd.” CBefore Mr. Alderman Miller.] STABBING CASE. Edward Burgess was arraigned on Saturday on the charge of stabbing Michael Riley. The san guinary affair, It Is alleged, took place at a public house in West Philadelphia, Riley was stabbed In the stomach. The wonnd is considered rather dan gerous. The accused was held to answer. CAMP CADWALADER, We understand that a captain at Camp Cadwala tier, with his books, papers, accounts, memoranda, &e„ was taken Into oustody on Friday by Colonel X,. O. Baker, of Washington, and conducted to the Continental Hotel, lrom which place they-started In the next train for Washington. It 13 further al leged that a certain firm on Market 3treet had re ceived the sum of $25,000 as a loan for business pur poses, the said sum being a part of the retained bounty fund of deserters, rejected men, etc. It is not known how much money has been retained by this process. The desertions from Camp Cadwala der have been enormous. Most of this bounty was given by the oity of Philadelphia, and consequently the people generally regard Its Anal distribution with some degree of anxiety. ALLEGED ROBBERY AT THE CUSTOM HOUSE. It was reported on Saturday morning that $20,- 000 had been stolen from the vault of a fire-proof at the Custom House sometime In the previous night. The looks were opened by means of a key. It was necessary to break a hole through the walls on Sa turday morning to get to the Interior of the proof or cafe because the key could sot he found. It was then the discovery of the robbery was made. There are two men employed to watch the building at night but they heard no noise at the time they were about the premises. The theft Is supposed to have been committed by the same thief who stole the baga of gold coin from the customhouse several months since. ALLEGED ROBBERY.' • It was reported at the Central Station on Satur day that on Friday midnight two men entered the bar-room of Mr. John Speeht’s hotel, near Wash ington lano and Ridge avenue, knocked the pro prietor down, stole his watch, and escaped.
