In Other words, the quotas of all towns are Increased oyer the /State quota under the eaU for 200,000, but those towns, wards and districts which have furnished under the previous eall a larae proportion of three-years men will have their quotas reduced by deductions on that- aeoount- Those dlstrlots which filled their quotas un der the last oall with one-year men will be required to supply tbe deficit oaused by the credits given towns which have furnished three-years men. The offiolal deoislon of Mr. Solicitor Whiting, under date of August Ist, 1864, confirmed by Provost Mar shal General Fry, stated as follows: „„„„ “ That district which furnishes three-veMS men now gains atonoe, on its account with the Provost Marshal General, the same benefit on.the quo taof the next draft os though it had furnished three tintfifl m mftßv TYißii for cm ymr s service. , pr“ ‘ cr , be allowed until the next oall follow w’ that under which the men are credited. It hag tSIn stated to us that these cron its were to bo made immediately, so that a town could fill, say a quota of sixty with twenty three-years 5 men. But this is got go at least no orders to this effect have been m&iilfi DUWIOi the quotas of the different districts, words, &0., are regulated according to the number of men ao tuallv liable to be draited residing In such district, it will bo to the Interest of all to have such list re turned sb for as possible. The following Instructions may be found useful In the furtherance thereof: I. Whenever a name appears of any person who Is not enrolled, but liable, notloe of the fact should be given to the provost marshal of the district, by any person who may bo cognizant of tlio f&ot t in or« der tnat the same may be recorded. 11. 'Whenever a name appears of any person who film removed, notice of the raefc mould be given at the provost marshal’s office, that the name may be stricken from the roll of that district, and recorded W III? whenever a name" appears which Is known to be fictitious, or any one is aware that the person Indicated is not a resident as describe*, notloe shonld be given at the provost marshal’s office, that the name may be stricken from the roll. TV Whenever cause of exemption exists for any reason, notice shouldlbe given to the provost mar shal of the diet riot by the exempt person himself, thht the name may.be stricken from the roll. The following are the recognised causes of exemp bloa: 1. Over 45 years of age. 2. Under 20 years of age. 8. Being an alien, ana never having voted. 4. Having furnished a substitute In anticipation of the draft. &. Having: been drafted and furnished a substitute. 6, Havlrg been drafted and paid commutation. T. Having been drafted and rboeived a certificate °T disqualified. 5. Having served two years in the army or navy during the present war, and been honorably dis charged. In. addition to this, bo far as possible, every one should use their efl'orts to have those Improperly enrolled takes off, and to add those not on, but who should be enrolled. , . , ■ . A number of wards have already taken steps to wards raising their quotas under the eall, and re cruiting will now go on quite briskly. We have over a month to furnish the number required. The Mayor has appointed a Commissioner of the Bounty, and everything Is now In a fair way for a speedy filling of our quota. IMPOST ANT RAILROAD BNTEBPBISN. The engineers to whom was assigned the import ant task of surveying a railroad from Frankford, in the Twenty-third ward of this city, to Attleboro, In Bucks county, have completed their labors. The gentlemen ol>the survey report as the most practicable route the one running on the northern fide of Frankford, continuing a little north of Bus-. tleton, and passing near to the celebrated Vanarts dalen quarries. The Neshamlny is crossed at Wil son’s old mill, running np the south side of the stream to the Attleboro and Newton road to the front of tbe bill on the north side of Attleboro. This road will open np to oue neighbors of Bucks county a ready connection with this city, and, to the farmers residing along It, it will bo of Incal culable benefit. Large numbers of our citizens have availed them selves of trips to Books county when the heated term Is upon us, notwithstanding the lumbering stage-coach was the only means of conveyance. When the comfortable oars shall be placed upon the road, we expect the iron-horse, drawing large numbers of pleasure seekors, to dash into bright and cheerful little retreats, where reoreatfon and sport may be enjoyed In one of the most healthful portions of our state. The stockholders of the road will meet In a short time, when the whole subject of the route will be considered, and we presume the road will be speedi ly put in operation. There is no city In the world, perhaps, which is surrounded by such a splendid rural territory as that of our own Philadelphia, and we always look with pleasure towards the means by which we aro placed In quick and easy communication with our neighbors oi the country. The road will, no doubt, be'kept busy Jh conveying milk, the products of truck-patches, and the various commodities of a light oharaoter which are brought to our markets. "Vast quantities of grain are raised In this section, and will find its way to onr city by rail, as our farmers are fully awakened (p the fact that In the. disposition of their crops time is money, BEATING. Yesterday and last evening the skating at the several parkß was excellent, and was Indulged In by a large number of l&dleB, gentlemen, and ohildren. The tall of snow has not Interfered with the skating at the narks, as It was soon cleaned off. by a large force of men engaged for that purpose. Some of the dresses of the lady skaters are unique and be, coming. It would be impossible to describe them all. we noticed amongst others a Butt of black with very small crinoline neatly trimmed with fur, and hat with fur trimming to match. A'brlght plaid, with sash and Scotch thistle ornament, and Scotch cap, was much admired. Colored skirts are worn almost exclusively; bright plaids being pre ferred. Bed stockings are not much admired, espe cially by the masculine visitors to the parks. Bed jockey sacks are much worn, and make a good ap pearance.- Expanded crinoline and long.dresses shonld be avoided by those who skate for pleasure. REPUBLICAN INYINCIBLES. The Invlnolbles will hold a publla meeting this evening at the National Union Club House lor the «seof peifeoting the arrangements relative to auguratlon of their grand ball, to take place on next Thursday evening at the Academyof Music.

Mr. Spbstho (U.) presented an ordinance appro priating the further sum of $3,260 for the Improve ment of Union Square, , Mr* King (O.), said that this was one of the old dents of one of the olty commissioners, who was decapitated by his party because he could not re ceive the support and approval of his brother offl* £©rs. T"©ie is no use, he Bald, In “kicking a dead Horn” The money for the work has been expended, and now au that remains to Councils is to foot the bills. A motlpn to referwas voted down and tho ordi nance was speed to. Mr. Zaub (U.) presented an ordinance to appro priate $B5O for the purpose of printing a manual for the use of the members. Mr. Brightly objected to the appropriation. Mr. Zane. The manual is necessary for the members. Those who have lately entered the Chamber need It. Some of the members who last year opposed this appropriation weie among the most Ignorant members, as far as parliamentary Jules which the Chamber holds. Mr. Brightly did not know how far his know ledge ol parliamentary roles extended, but the wis dom of the Chairman of Highways (Mr. Zane) is like’that of the man who spent all day trying to make a barrel out of a. bnsghole—beyond all pre cedent. [Laughter.] The credit of the city suffers while these needless expenditures are being con tinued. To-day the oltv bonds sell for 92. Mr. Zane. There certainly is a mistake. Mr. Brightly. 92 is the quotation. Mr.SrBBiNG (U). The city sixes are quoted to day at 88 jf. There are some mm in this Chamber who will vote away millions oi, the olty money, and at the same time will decry and attempt to de grade the credit of the city. - ... Mr. Armstrong (O.) said that retrenchment had beeii promised by the-new Councils. The members flhbuia set the example themselves, Mr, Zash, There are several new rules adopted by the Chamber which are not In our present ma n, Mr. Bribhtly said that the ordinance provides that the manual be printed without providing for any manner of printing, and should bo amended by letting the printing out at oontraet to the lowest bI Mr r ZANB stated that there was no use of such an amendment, for all large printing establishments barf adopted a similar scale of prices. The dfeeusalon was further extended. Mr. Bright jy’s amendment w&s finally voted down* The original motion was also lost.

The following oommunioation relative to the pur chase of the Northern Liberties Gas Works was received from the Mayer: 11 Gentlemen : My assent Is withheld frpm the bill entitled ‘ An ordinance to take possession of the Northern Liberties Gas Works and to oreate a loan therefor.’ The propriety of any further consolida tion of the Gas Works within this olty under the management of one trust Is very questionable. The capabilities of the Philadelphia Gas Works are al ready overtaxed, and In portions of the olty, parti cularly In the Twenty-second ward, the supply Is frequently so diminished that consumers are greatly lnoonvenleneed, and sometimes deprived of its use. Bat apart from snch questions of expediency there should be some urgent necessity to warrant at the E resent time any further increase of the olty debt, owever the redemption of such debt may be pto vided for. I have,-therefore, deemed It proper to refer this measure to the judgment of the present Councils. “ Respectfully, Alexander Henev.” « The further consideration of the subject was post posed for the present. The Mayor also sent a communication transmit ting the correspondence relative to the presentation of a sword to General Meade, whioh had been voted him by councils.
