and to persons famishing substitutes, the sum
A* bill* Similar "to this should have been passedln
the first place, as by this time the quota of the city
might have been very nearly fall. The inducements
te enter the service are now greater than ever. A

The pay of a volunteer under this law will be

at home of 91,000 a year. In addition to this his
family receives a weekly stipend from the Commis
sion tor the Belief of the Families of Volunteers.
These are, indeed, liberal inducements; more so, In
fact, thafl were ever offered by any other country to
Its soldiers. While we are thus making every effort
to free ourselves from the draft, oare should bo taken
that all men enlisting In this city should go to our
credit. It Is said that New Jersey Is filling up her
quota by means of Pennsylvanians enlisted for the
navy at a recruiting station In Front street, below
Spruce. We hear from those who are cognizant of
the fact that from ten. to fifty persons are dally in
duced to put their enlistments to the credit of our
nelghbortog State. It is time a stop was put to
these proceedings.
mBCEUABIBOIIB,
A LADY IN SEARCH OF THIS OIL COMPANY.
A day or two since a well-known gentleman,
while passing along Chestnut street, near Fourth,
was accosted by a lady, desirous of finding an oil
she, “can you inform me where I can
And the oil company i” ,
“Madam,” replied he, “there are numerous oil
companies In this neighborhood. Bo you desire any
particular one 1” -
“ Yes, sir; I want the one that will make me rich;
everybody is making money to oil; I am a seam*
stress, and have saved seven hundred dollars, and
want to put It Into oil.”
“Well, madam, don’t you know the name of the
only the oil company that can make me
rich—that Is the one I wish to place my money in.”
The gentleman recommended her to place her
money In Government funds as the best security.
“Oh,no, sir; though the bonds are good, yeti
want to get rich. I want to find the oil company that
suits me.”
The gentleman went his way, reflecting on that
curious disease known as “ often the brain,” and
the lady proceeded in her search tor the oil company
that was to make her a millionaire.
SCHOOL TEACHEBB.
Mr. Henry Bumm, the affable City Treasure!,
was busy on Saturday in paying the warrants or
the sohool teachers. As a financier, Mr. Bumm
stands very high in the estimation of that class of
citizens who give- tone and value to society. Not
withstanding the Immense pressure of business
upon the department, his clerks work with the pre
cision of olookwork machinery. One thing 1b very
certain, there is no slneoure position in that depart
ment. The payment of the teachers will be con
tinued until all are fnllypald to the amount ol their
warrants.
CASUALTY.
Bate' on Friday night, as the Baltimore train had
partly entered the depot at Broad and Prime streets,
Mr. Casper Souder, a member of thepress, attempt
ed to aught, hot at the.moment of stepping from
the ear, the momentum, slow as it was, suddenly
checked, and Mr. S. was thrown with considerable
violence to the .ground. One of his shoulders was
partly dislocated, and his face somewhat lacerated.
He was removed to his residence.
SKATING.
The skating at the parks on Saturday afternoon
was slightly damaged by the snow stqrm. Notwith
standing the snow there was probably a larger num
ber of skaters out than on any previous day during
the season. The parks at Fourth and Diamond; the
National, Twenty-first and Columbia avenue, and
the Philadelphia Park. Thirty-first and Walnnt,
were all crowded with visitors...

breakfast, discovered him hanging to tbe upper
beam of a weaver’s loom. The coroner held an In

THE ICE CROP.
The 100 crop, this season, is larger than it has been
within the last six years. A number of the ioe
houses are already completely filled, and all the
others are very nearly so, So far as human fore
sight oan go, there will be no excuse for an extra
vagant price for this necessary next summer.
ACCIDENT.
Ed. Callahan, the driver of a car on the Heston
ville Passer ger Kailway, was admitted into the
hospital, early on S&tnrda’-, with his lest broken,
caused by his horse falling upon him atYorkave
nne and Oallowhlll street.
THE POLICE.
TURNED OTJT OF THEIR HOME,
The particulars of the alleged conspiracy and ma
licious mischief case, upon which charge a person
named Pulty was bound over by Mr. Recorder Enou
a few days ago, were duly published in this column.
The following additional particulars have since
been made publlo. It seems that while the ease was
pending against Joseph Pulty, before the Recorder,
a constable, under the warrant of a writ of posses
sion, proceeded to the rooms occupied by the aged
maiden ladies, the two Misses Moore, burst the door
and without ceremony put their household
Slnto the street. This writ of possession was
by Alderman Hutchinson, upon an affidavit
made by some one, wbieh at present does not seem
to come up to the requirements of the law lu such
cases made and provided. This writ of possession,
it Is supposed, was Issued under an aot of Assembly,
March 25, 1825, which provides that upon the oath
of the landlord or owner, that the rent of any pre
mises not having been paia, and there not being
enough goods on said premises to pay the amount of
three months’ rent, then the writ of possession may
issue upomthe affidavit being made in accordance
With a form as prescribed by law. . ,r
The following faotshave been officially communi
cated to Recorder Eneu, which will probably be
duly investigated today. The subject is one of
very great importance to all persons who are what
maybe termed sub-tenants: The house No. 2000
Brandywine street was originally rented to a Mrs.
Clark. She rented the second-story rooms to the
two Misses Moore, very respectable, orderly, and
pious ladles. They paid the rent regularly, and
interfered with nobody’s business. It was deemed
necessary to oust them, for what reason is not pub
. Holy stated. Mrs. Clark, It seems, rented, or pre
tended to have rented, her part of the.house to the
Pulty family. Oi course; Mrs, G.'must have been
held responsible for the rent by the owner, as he
could not have known anything of the Pulty family
without implicating himself in the illegality of the
whole pz&ceedlngs.
The Pulty family having thus gained possession
of Mrs. Clark’s part of the premises, she remaining
or living! with the family, It is alleged that undue
efforts were made to eject the two maiden ladles, as
developed at the hearing before the Recorder.
Alter that investigation, the two aged complainants
returned to their abiding plaoe, for which they had
paid the rent; they found their little household
foods In the street. Thus they were homeless on a
eenly oold day, with tbe dull, heavy clouds of
winter for their canopy, and the frozen earthfor
their pillow. A Mend came to their assistance and
- gave them temporary refuge, otherwise they might
nave been compelled to lodge in a police station
house or freeze to death. The Case has awakened a
considerable amount of sympathy lu the neighbor
hood of BrandywlneandTwentiethstreets. Thepro
ceedings before the Recorder will be looked to with
interest.

HIGHWAY BOBBERY AND ARREST.
William F, Gross, Dallas Meyers, alias Reedy,
and Patrick McDevlt, were arrested on Saturday
by officers Hart, Houck, and Green, on the charge
of highway-robbery. The evidence developed the
following facts: It seems that Josiah Smith, of
Newton,* Buoka county, came to Philadelphia to
11 see sights.” He had in his pockets between four
and five hundred dollars in “greenbacks.” On
Friday night he appeared in the classic locality of
Water and Callownlll streets, and was free In the
display of his money, and asking of “ the party” to
take a drink. He Boon found mends. One of the
prisoners induced him to go to another publlo house,
and while walking along the dark pavement the
other two assailed him, knooked him down, and
took his money. This was the fourth or fifth high
way robbery that bad taken plaoe in that vicinity
■within a week. Officer Hart, who possesses supe
rior detective qualities, arranged matters to arrest
the party, ana, If possible, to recover the money.
The sum of $288.90 was recovered. A portion of
It was found inside the tlok of a bed In the house or
room occupied by one of tbe prisoners. The accused
made a confession of the crime. They were com
mitted to answer. Bail In such cases can only be
entered before the Court of Quarter Sessions.

PRESENTATION OF A CHAIR-
On Saturday evening a number of gentlemen ap
peared before the newly-elected alderman, Charles
B. Pottle ger, of the Second ward, oarrytng with
them a ehalr worth nearly one hundreddoUars. One
of the gentlemen stated that an Important arrest
had been made, which demanded the official con
sideration of the magistrate.
The worthy Alderman, opening his docket, asked
the iname of the prisoner, and the nature of tho
charge. The 'gentleman replied that the name of
the arrested-, was - “ chair !>> and the only charge
against him was that he was m charge of the whole
party, and it was simply desired to place him in
charge of the magistrate. tj
n Bring forth the prisoner,” said one or the party;
and the next moment a handsome chair, that up to
tfftbls time had been kept from view, was preoduoed.
The Alderman was surprised; the whole affair
was a surprise party,indeed.-. The .presentation was
Made, and a happy scene prevailed, *

IHTEBBSTING MSG At OriWIOH—IMTBfITStBKT OF
Estate of John Naglee, O, C. Exceptions to au
ditor’s report. Judge Thompson, on Saturday, de
livered the opinion of the court confirming the au
ditor’s report, and Judge Ludlow read the following
oononrring opinion: > •,
Opinion by Judge Ludlow: The trustees of John
Naglee held, among other securities belonging to
the oust estate, two ground, rents. - The owners of
the land out of which these rents Issued applied to
the trustees for the extinguishment of the rents, on
the payment of theprtoolpal and interest in lawful -
money of the United states. Hie owners aforesaid,
in April and October,lB63, tendered this money,
with deeds of extinguishment prepared, and de
manded their execution; the trustees accepted
payment, and thereupon extinguished the ground
rests, and with the funds thus In hand, together
with other moneys (the product of the sale of cor
tain bonds of thililty of Philadelphia and Camden
and Amboy HBroad Company, which had ma
tured), they purchased securities of the United
States Government. We are now asked to condemn
this set of the trustees, and to surcharge them with
the amount thus Invested.
The auditor has rerused to surcharge the trustees,
and has stated at length his reasons for so-doing; :
and while I concur with him in his final Conclusion,
I donot agree with'him In various reasons which lie
has assigned for Ms judgment. x
As a general principle of law, it is true that as
trustee cannot call to money Invested on good real
security, where no risk Is apparontjiaUhough it is ■
otherwise when, from a changeXSfltelronmstanoes,
the security of the investment’VSlmtolshed, ana- ;
the capital endangered, as where the Interest Is not
regularlv paid, and -becomes greatly In arrears.
Hul on Trustees, page 381, and authorities cited.
Every caEe must bejeonsldered and determined
with reference to the ifarilcolar facts surrounding
it. These trustees held seourlties which were un
doubtedly good, but which, should an attempt he
made to pay them off, might at any time become the
subjeot of tedious and expensive litigation. Even
at the present time the question whetherthe princi
pal of a ground rent is am estate In the land, or.mav
become a debt, laah open one, as no court of final
resort has settled It.
So also Is the more important question of the con
stitutionality of the aot of Congress making paper
money, or promises to pay, a legal tender.. Dis
tinguished jurists have delivered elaborate opinions
upon both sides of these questions. The country in
1863, and ever since, has been convulsed with a terri
ble civil war; this abnormal condition of publio
affairs, and the Inevitable tendency to an excited
state of social, political, and even judicial opinion,
has rendered It quite Impossible to foresee the prova
ble final determination of any question of purelaw
arising out of this sad condition of things. When
the principal of these securities was tendered to
these trustees, what were they to do I—lf they ac
cepted the payments to paper money, and thereafter
it should be determined that this money was not a
constitutional legal tender, they might be Involved
in litigation; but they'could, in the meantime, ln
veet the funds and thus secure to the trust estate
the Interest payable jon the. Investment; should
they, however, on the other hand, refuse to accept
the money tendered, and then alter It should be
decided that they ought to have done so, beoause
the tender was legal and constitutional,-the most
serious consequences might follow, heoause the in
terest would have ceased on.the day the tender was
made. How long this large sum. of money would
have remained unproductive would depend upon
the final solution of the questions in dispute, and It
may he safely estimated that from three to five'
veara would elapse before the Supreme Court of
Pennsylvania or the United States oould enter a
final judgment.
Surrounded with suohlnnparalleled difficulties, the
trustees had but one course to follow—they were
bound to aot with scrupulous Integrity, and with
that prudence with which, as prudent men, they
would have conducted their own affairs; having re
ceived the funds, (hey .were bound to invest them
muter an order of this court, or In an Investment
made legal by act of Assembly, and which would
have been sanctioned by an order of court.
Looking mow at the sots of the trustees,! am Una
ble to discover wherein they have erred. '
Pint. They have acted honestly—this has not
been doubted. .
Second. They have acted prudently under all the
circumstances surrounding them; had they acted
otherwise' they might have subjected themselves
and the trust estate to the loss of a large amount of
Interest, and this very probable consequence of an
act of Imprudence seems to me to Bottle the ques
tion upon this point.
Third. They have acted legally, for they have in
vested this money in securities aufftcriasf by the law
of Pennsylvania, (see act of Assembly 0129th .of
March, 1832, seo. 14 j It Is useless, it seems to me,
to argue that beoause the law is an anoient one, ana
was enacted during a state of profound peace, that,
therefore, it Is to be'oonsidered obsolete, for it is
nevertheless the law of this Commonwealth, and,
therefore, oannot be disregarded by us.
Upon the argument of this case our attention was
Called to the fact that one-sixth of this entire trust
estate was Invested in the securities of the United
States, and, for this reason, we were asked to refuse
to confirm the auditor’s report, and upon this point
Mono have I had any difficulty In this ease.
The law of Pennsylvania authorizes investments
to be made In Certain designated securities, and the
gravest responsibility is oast at the present time
upon this court In sanctioning these investments,
because we must remember that we are dealing with
the property of widows, orphans, minors, and other
beneficiaries. I presume no sane man, acting for
himself, would Invest all his means, or an undue
proportion thereof, In any one olass of securities;
ana, if ho would not do so for himself, he certainly
ought not so to act with trust funds. Assuming for
my present purpose that these United States securi
ties are as sareas any other class of securities which
could be named, yet It seems to me to be most judi
cious for a trustee and for this ioourt so to apportion
the various legal Investments which are from time
to tlme to bo made, as to secure the parties Inte
rested a variety of legal and safe-securities.
'With these views I am not prepared to say that
these trustees erred In making an Investment of
one-sixth of this estate In these United States
bonds, but I reserve the right hereafter In this, as
in every other caße of the same nature, to scrutinize
every investment about to be made, and to deter
mine its propriety in accordance with the principles'
heretofore stated, so that while surrounded by do
mestic convulsions, we may act advisedly and. for
the best Interest of the wldowß, orphans, and bene
ficiaries who have a legal rad sacred .right to look
to us tor protection. In doing'so,'however, we
ought not, and Bhall hot needtessiy-tejure the oredlt

-Price vs. The Glty Commissioners. This was an
appUcatlon for an Injunction to. restrain defendants
from executing a certain contract for the furnishing
of books, stationery, Ac., for the use of some of the
city departments for the year 1866. The application
was based upon the allegation that proposals were
not advertised for at the time prescribed by law ;
the advertisement having been on the,Bth of Janu-.
ary, whereas the city ordinance of 1863 required that
It should be on the 6th of November previous. The
conrt granted the injunction, and in doing so Judge

complainant; Brewster for respondents.
Court of Quarter Sessions—Hon. Joseph
In the ease of Patrlok Shay, whose parents ask
Ms discharge from the House of Refuge-, whore he
was committed in October, 1863, Mrs. Mehaffy testi
fied that she knew the father and mother of the boy;
the mother had worked for her seven years, at shirt
making; never saw the mother under the iniluenco
of liquor; always thought the Boy waß very well
behaved, and was surprised to hear he was in the
Honse of Refuge; never had seen any Improper con
duct in Mr. Shay’s house.
Mtb. McGulgley testified that she lived In the,
house of Mrs. Shay, who was an industrious woman
and did not drink. A number of other witnesses
gave the parents and the boy excellent characters.
mtb. MeOlory sworn—l was before Alderman
Carry, and made complaint against the boy; I lived
In the same house with Mrs. Shay, and on going
home I found the boy breaking the door, and the
mother Inside crying murder and watch; believe
the lather, mother, and boy had “ a little in them
that day ;” never saw any improper conduct In tho
boy before that day; It occurred about election
time; never saw the parents or the boy drunk be
fore ; they might take a drink occasionally, as I do.
Mrs. MoCrory testified that the boy had a diffi
culty with his mother, about some ashes; he got Ms
mother by the hair, and I said It was a shame; he
chased Ms mother up stairs, and pulled her out
from under a bed; a woman came In, thumped Mm,
and put Mm out the room; he then broke open the
door; -the boy was In liquor, also the father.
On cross-examination, the witness said she occa
sion&lly took liquor; she tested It, like other people;
the boy was always .good and well behaved before
that.
Daniel Dougherty, Esq., counsel for the boy, read
the commitment as made out by Alderman Curt*,
narrating that the boy Is a bad one; beats Ms
mother, broke open MoOrory’s door, and that the
parents and boy are In the habit of drinking to
excess.
Judge Allison Bald it seemed impossible to make
some magistrates understand their duties. The
law very plainly says that a child oannot be sent to
the House of Refuge by a magistrate unless its
parent, guardian, or next friend complain that the
child is a vagrant. Incorrigible, vicious, and beyoad
their control; or that by-reason of ‘ a parent, guar
dian, or next friend beiqg morally depraved and In
capable of exercising proper care of tne child under
their charge.. *
The managers of the Houbb of Refuge had no
right to reaeive a'chlld committed by any magis
trate unless. the face of the commitment shows the
law has been compiled with as stated above.
The evidence in this case showed the parents of
the boy bad a comfortable home, and never had been
teen to drink liquor but on one occasion. If tMs
constituted moral depravity, large numbers of our
citizens would come In tMs category.
Tbe boy was discharged from the custody of the
managers of the House of Refuge.
The ease of James MoElhare was again taken up,
and witnesses called to show that the father was a
proper person to have the custody of the child, a girl
ten years of age.
D. W. White testified that Mr. McElhare sold
wood and willow goods on commission for Mm, and
has made as high-as $BO a week. He did not neg
lect Ms business by reason of Intoxication.
On cross examination witness said that. Mr.
MeElhare’o salary would average fifteen or eighteen
hundred dollars a year. „
1 A number of witnesses were called to show that
Mr. McElhare did not drink, and was attentive to
business. ' . *«v' - -
Witnesses were oalled In behalf of Mrs. MoElhare,
to show that Mr. McElhare had created great dis
turbances at the house of Ms wife, and tut he was
unfit to have the custody of the oMid.
Joseph Elohle, convloted of committing an
assault , and battery on a Gorman, was oalled
up for sentence. He said he only gave the
man a smeller on the mouth. Sentenced to pay a
fine of $lO, and costs of prosecution. Adjourned.
A Yankee Stkixes OililhEukope.—The won
ders of the petroleum oil discovery will never cease.
Last year Colonel Gowan, of Boston, the gentleman
who had the contract for getting up the sunken
Russian sMps In the harbor of Sebastopol, was
coming down from St. Petersburg through Georgia
and Circassia, when, in the neighborhood of the Sea
of Azof, he stumbled upen some oil wells wMok the
natives were working in a very indifferent way,
and wMeh the Colonel bought. He then came
to Paris and London- organized a company,
sent' but men to work the wells, and ships
to carry to London and Liverpool tho pro
ducts, and they are now paying handsome
dividends. But what Is more surprising still,
the Colonel, In returning lately from the Black
Sea to Paris, stopped on tho way at the Island .of
Samos, on tbe eastern shore of the Mediterranean,
where he found and bought another oil well. What
Is still more curious, this well was spoken of by
Herodotus, the great Greek historian, 450 years be
fore Christ, and from that day to this no one has
thought of turning to use this important discovery.
Eventhe English traders of these later days, who
have control of tho commerce of the island, have
blindly walked over this Important source of wealth
without perceiving It. Colonel Gowan has bought
fifteen acres of ground at the ordinary price of land
on the Island. , , - 1

fully called to this old- established stand, which for the
past fixe months has been closed to trade* and during
that time has been thoroughly remodeled, repaired, ana
newly furnished throughout, until it now possesses all
the conveniences pertaining to a ff ret class hotel, which
are in any manner calculated to Insure the perfect com

Its situation alone would recommend it as a stopping
place, being only two and a half squares from the depots j
near enough to prove convenient, euffioiently dUtant to
avoid the an* oyance of railroad noise and bustle.
The furniture is entirely new* rooms large and well

LAMP CHIMHEYS. " *’
The World-Wide reputation which these Chimneys
have acquired is due to their acknowledged superiority
over all others. This superiority i* denred from three
sources:
Ist. Being fifty per cent, heavier than the common
Chimney, they may he handled with much less care,
2d. The oval shape is an adaptation to the fiat flame,
the Chimney being at all points the same distance from
the heat, so that.the danger of cracking: by unequal ex
pansion is avoided.
3d. The material of which theie Chimneys are manu
factured is tmeqaalled hy any other gift** as a rapid
conductor of heat; and, practically, it Is found that the
combination -renders them almost entirely free from
liability to destruction by the heat of the flame. Hence
the obstacle in the way of the universal use of Carbon
Oil, found in the unreasonable expense for Chimneys*
hasbeen met and removed by the Introduction of
SfTHHIIpeBfS PiEEtfiboj? CHIMNES 8.
Tie popularityof these Chimneys has induced some
unprincipled perions to make nee of ora name and trade
marks and their reputation haa been partially impaired
by the woi thleseness of spurious Chimney* sold asonra.
Parties who hare been annoyed with the cracking' of
Chimneys would do well to call and try the
