searched, and the foUo’wing stock In trade found
concealed under her clothes: One pair of fine boots,

The Chicago Draft Committee recently visited.
President Lincoln and laid the proofs bafbre him,
that thelr clty had been assessed for men ont of ai'’
just proportion to the arms-beariog population. He
expressed himself convinced that great Injustice
had been done Chicago by enrolling ten .or twelve
thousand exempts, and will grant whatever relief
is practicable. He said the provost marshal of the
district had been too zealous In getting names, and
reminded him of an anecdote about Ben Wade’s
praying, during Buchanan’s administration, for a
continuance of Judge Taney’s administration. Ben

Lenten Pastoral to his clergy:
Another motive for keeping this Lent well Is
tbe consideration that the destructive war fn which
we are now Involved-may be regarded, jig a abasMse
ment for national and Individual sins. - We surely
have provoked it, North and South, by cur trans-
Sessions. And as we have seceded froip God, so
>d has-punished us by the secession of one part of
our nation from the other. Bet us hasten to be-rd
conclled to God, that we may be reconciled as aji ;
tlon. There are hundreds or thousands of bvr
brethren enduring the hardships or the camp, ttti
march, the trenches, and the battle-field; there are*
upwards of seventy thousand of our own bravo)
Union defenders suffering from wounds and disease
In our hospitals, and alas!: many more lu Southern
prisons. Is this a time for gayety, and revelry, and
luxury t If It be unchristian to msok the dying-ago
nies of the Great Penitent of' the universe, by at
tending the ball, the opbra, and the ballet on Good
Friday, islfc true andSbllghtened patriotism to In
dulge In heartless leylt y and amusements, when the
shrieks of the dying; the palns-of the sick, and the
privations of the prisoner, demand of us commisera
tion and sympathy 1 Heavier calamities than an;
we have named may yet be impending. How shall
we avert the evil future, or terminate that which
is upon us! By expiation,: by prayer, by alms,

The London Morning Star relates avery novel
circumstance, which, occurred recently in the House
of Commons, Mr. Boyle, the new momber from
Buteshire, took the oaths and'his seat at the usual
hour, and in the usual way 5 hut, being resolved to
distinguish himself, he subsequently, after Mr. Dis
raeli took his seat, walked up to the right honorable"
gentleman and presented his card, ,The unusual
proceeding attracted notice, hut Mr. Disraeli was
equal to the occasion. Instead of evincing aurprlßO,
he coolly Inspected the card, hud handed It back to
the owner, apparently for the purpose of getting his
address. Hr. Boyle accordingly wrote the address,
and again presented the card to Mr. Disraeli, who
Splemnly.gaxed on the writing, then slowly roi&
from bis seat, advanced to the table, applied some
blotting paper to the card, and carefully consigned
It to the breast pocket of his coat. This accom
plished, In the same grave manner as if the business
bn hand had been of overwhelming Importance, the
right honorable gentleman returned from • the table
and resumed his seat. Mr. Boyle tfaen gave a part

A gentleman In England named Feather ha s
put in a petition of right, claiming compensation
for an alleged infringement of a patent granted- to
him in the construction of what arc known aB “ Mr.
Seed’s 15 small, armor-plated ships. The case came
before the Court of Queen’s Bench recently, and
the Attorney General raised the questions whether
patents of improvements or inventions useful- for
the defence of the realm are valid as again Bt the
Grown; and if so, whether the breach of-them,

The Boston Journal contains the following
“ It has been stated that Governor Andrew inter
fered to secure the reprieve of the'plrate Beall, and
some Invidious comments thereupon have appeared
In certain quarters. The facts are simply these:
On the night previous to the execution of Beall,
Governor Andrew received a despatch from Adio
taut GeneraiSchouler, who was then m Washing
ton, requesting him to telegraph the President to
respite Beall, lor reasons which he would communi
cate In a letter. There was no time for explana
tions, and Governor Andrew at once telegraphed to
the President that Adjutant General Sohouler, who
was then in Washington, had telegraphed that Im
portant reasons existed fbr commuting the penalty
of Captain Beall, and asked lr the execution eould
not properly be delayed. It matters not what were
- the reasons which Induced General Schooler to In
terfere. They were cogent, If not conclusive. But
the Governor, In responding to his request, simply
followed the of humanity, and his ac
tion will be approved by all who Believe that human
life Is more sacred than that of brutes.”

I am not personally acquainted with the above
named persons, but they are recommdhded by ten
true men (with whom ! am'personally acquainted),
as proper persons to be permitted to take the oath
ana return home. From the recommendations and
information received, I ash the President to permit
them to be released on taking, the oath of Decem
ber, 1863. I.tr. Abdhbson.
In tiio forenoon of to-day the young gentleman
referred to appeared at the Presldent’awith this
paper, and asked to be permitted to present It. He'
was Informed by G. O’Leary, who Is in charge of
tke door of the President’s office, that he oould not
be permitted to enter.* Subsequently, on being in
formed of the object of the call, he was taken asi le
and told by O’Leary that if he would pay him fifty
dollars he (O’Leary) would take charge of the pa
pers and'procure the President’s order for the re
lease of these prisoners ; that otherwise he would
hare to remain for many days without any proba
bility of having an Interview with the President.
Be saw two other persons on a similar errand pay
money to O’Leary, and saw the desired papers, a
few minutes afterwards, given by O’Leary to such
persons. Tha young gentleman had but little mo
ney at the hotel; nothing like that amount with
him. He left the papers, however, with O’Leary,
add reported-the fame above recited to me.
I went with him Immediately to the President’s
intendlng to play a simple and rustic' part.
/With some difficulty I succeeded In disarming iittn
of all suspicion, and arranged with him to pay the
fifty dollars so soon as the President’s order for the
discharge of these prisoners should be handed to the
gentlemen above named. O’Leary prombed to
meet him at hla room at the National Hotel (taking
the number), at precisely three o’clock to day, waea
he waß to bring the order of the President for the
release of the prisoners and reoeive the amount
stipulated. I remained out of sight until the order
for the.dlseharge of the prisoners was delivered and
the Monty paid. Just as O’Leary was bowing him
self out, l intercepted him, forced him backinto the
room, denounced Dim as a swindler, and caused him
to surrender the money (thirty dollars), that »Wng
the amount which he had agreed to take finally,
because of the assurance that nothing would be
advanced for two of the prisoners, and the inability
of the gentleman topay more for the others. '
The order of the President for the release of the
grlßoneis is written on the paper whloh wasslgned
y Mr. Anderson, and Is In the following words:
•-Let these men take the oath of December 8,
1803,ami be discharged. A. Lincoin.
“February 23, 1865.” ’ "
Just asO’Leary was taking his leave he gave to
his supposed victim his address, and urged him to
inform the relatives and friends of prisoners of war
that the; eonld have them released from confine
ment by applying to him and paying ten dollars in
each case. He gave his address, which X have in
his own handwriting:
“O. O’Lbabt,
“ Executive Mansion,
“Washington, D. O."
I make this matter public from motives of hu
manity. During the last year I have made many
applications for thedlsoharge of prisoners of war
upon the terms mentioned in the above order of the
President, but in no instance have I been success
ful. I have often written to the friends and-klndred
of prisoners that there was no end to their captivity
but peace. I rejoloe, however, to be able at last to
inform 'those nho feet an interest in the matter that
a cheap and expeditions remedy is within their
power. Commissioners of exchange may disagree,
Bfitlermay higgle about his niggers, batten dollars
enclosed to “O. O’Jjeary,-Executive Mansion,
Washington, D. C.,” will restore any repentant
rebel totlie blessings of freedom and the society of
Jriends. Em. ErflßßiDaa.
Washington, D. C., Fab. 23,1866.
The above communication appeared In the Consti
tutional Unint. of Friday, the 24th Inst. It was
shown, on Saturday, to Mr. Nlsolay, the private
secretary of the. President. The servant, O’Jbeary,
therein mentioned, was Immediately summoned
and examined in reference to the charges published.
Be coofecsed that he had undertaken, for Mr. Echo,
ridge and his friend, to place Mr. Anderson’s com
munication before the President; that he had re
quested and Induced Mr. Harrington, of Indiana,
to present the paper to the President, who had en
dorsed It and returned it to him; that he had taken
it to the hotel and delivered It. to the petitioners,
and had received a present in money from them for
his services.
On this oonfesßlon the servant was at once dis
missed from hfs plaoe in the Executive office.
The whole occurrence le of the most remarkable
character. Every one acquainted with public busi
ness knows that it is the dally habit of the President
to discharge from prison rebel soldiers who desire to
take the oath of allegiance, upon the certificate
and request of the member of Congress in .whose
district their homes lie. In this ease, the re
quest of Mr. Anderson, presented by another gen
tleman of good character and standing, also a
member of Congress, was at onoe compiled with,
as a matter of course. It would have been
granted with equal readiness If brought before the
President by his private secretary, who Is always
.accessible for these very purposes. But Mr. Ethe
ridge, with that strange perversity which has of late
so astonished and pained his former friends, prefers
to bribe a servant to accomplish a thing which would
have been granted for the mere asking In the regu
lar way. And when the servant, whose character
previous to this affair was at least as good, a# that of
his tempter, yields to the temptation,.the bribery is
followed by a forcible extortion, and that by a be
trayal of confidence! sni Mr. Etheridge insanely
forces his own disgrace upon the attention of the
world.
Deaili of a Hallant loyalist.
[From the Louisville Preas ] .....
The loyal portion of the nation, but especially the
loyal men ot Kentucky, have been deeply bereaved
by the death of Colonel Oloero Maxwell, late of the
26th Kentucky Beglment of Infantry. He was one
of the notable men .of this State, and was honored
and esteemed wherever known. From'.the begin

Ids principles, his hopes, and nations, and through
all the varying phases of Kentucky Unionism he

faithful, and energetic lu‘his devotion to (the'na

well was the possessor of an enviable reputation as a
lawyer, and had readied a distinguished positional

joyed, the confidence of the people. But, at the
oall of his country, he turned his back upon all
those avenues ofj ambition that opened widely be
fore him and entered the military service of the na
tion. In this service he was true, faithful, and emi
nently useful." Upon the promotion of den. Bur

safety of railroad travellers (punishing negligence -of
employees with fine and imprisonment) -
Mr. WILSON moved to proceed to Its consideration.
Agreed to
The act provides that if any person in the service of
any railroad company shall re/use or neglect 3 to obey
any ntie t -cr shall neglect any precaution Tor the safety
of travellers, he or they shall be guilty, of a misde
meanor, and may be punished bya One not exceeding
$5,600 and imprisonment not exceeding five years. The
inxoTiDerißto obtain one half or the fine, and nothing
in the bill shall be considered to release the company
or the agents and employees from any civil damages to
wMch they may beTiabi*.
Some debate ensned, and Mr. LOWTJTsaid that the
“government” (the Pennsylvania B&Uroad) desired
the bill, and-he supposed that it would pass, of course.
Mr WILSON said that such assertions were trashy
bosh, bolder dash, auc smoke,. |
Mr. LOWRY replied that he knew what he hid been
saying, and he had said just what ho meant, a few days
ago he had introduced a lair bill for the publication of -
the names of those who were killed or wounded by
railroad accidents, the publication to be made at every
telegraph office of the company. It was drawn up by
the highest legal officer of this Commonwealth, and yet
it was denounced as “smudge.” It actually passed
the Senate (as amended) unanimously, and yet it was
called “smudge,/ 1 bat when the “power” came into
these halls it was reconsidered by tbe self same Senate
the next morning, and was then defeated. What
was th* pitiable , condition of the great Senate
of Pennsylvania, actually “backing down” and
refusing to sanction a 'bill which it had previously
parsed unanimously! The fact should' ring like an
alarm bell through the hills and valleys of Pennsyl
vania. The new bill under consideration, favored by
the * 1 Power, ’ * was intended only to make employees
of railroads serfs and tools as completely as the Sana*
torrla these halls. wUh a few honorable exceptions.
These corporations hold ns in leading strings, and a
Senator who dare make bold side ? emarku wilt be rid i
culee at the bidding of corporate rascality. No bill in
troduced here to make corporations responsible! <or im
proper orders to their employees could pass. For four
years the power-had been taken from the hands of the
sovereign people and given to grasping corporations,
and set ho punishment can be inflicted here for any
crime committed by. these corporations—a humiliating
thought “After lour years’ service in these halls, I
declare it to be mj conviction that we can get no legis
lation except what the railroad corporations want ”
Mr. WILSON defended tbebill under consideration,
anc repeated the assertion that it was &U folly, fudge,
and smoke to make such side remarks as those of the
gentleman from Bile. The bill had not come from any
perron connected with railroads.
Mr. CL'S MEB moved to recommit to the Judiciary
Committee, and believed that a more perfect bill could
be framed by-tbe union of this one with the one which
KQELir* d the company to give public notice of accidents.
Mr. BALL objected very decidedly to the manner and
assertions of the gentleman from Brie (Mr. Lowry), aad
declared that It was at-least uncourteous to impugu the
motives of Senators; %.JBLe aaid that the bill before the
Senate. so far from having been prepared by any rail
road officer, urns the work of a distinguished lawyer of
Lycoming. He explained hie own action and that of
the Sen ate in defeating 1 he act reQuirio g publicity to be
given to accidents. It could have dene no good, and
was impracticable in He notiesd fchs diffi
culties of. obtaining eompetentemployees in times like
there, when railroad companies, like oth-ar corpora
tions, were often obliged to * place untried most in re
sponsible positions, and when their old officials had en
tered the army. Certainly the companies did not wish
accidents to take place, and the present bill simply pro
vided tbaf those who occasioned these accidents should
be held responsible.
ttr. BKAKLbLEE considered that it was a novelty in
legislation to punish men not for violating any esta
blished law, but the unknown rule of some railroad
company.
The debate was continued further, and the bill was
finally-referred to the Judiciary Committee by a vote of

Passed.
An act repealing certain laws relative to lav collec
fon in Montgomery county, so as to make the consta
bles a<*a»t«tßectors, was considered.
Mr. HaB&LBT said that the bill;sought to make
Montgomery county an exception to the general law.
and urged that this fact alone should be sufficient to
prevent its passage. The County Commissioners have
the immediate charge of tbe finance*, they levy all
tax**, regulate assessments, hold appeals, decide
claims of exemption, and see that the taxes are faith
fully collected, and yet it is said that it is very wrong
for these Commissioner* to appoint the tar couestore.
The advocates of the act tacitly admit that it would be
wrong to extend the * * benefits 1 ’ of this proposed bill to
any other county, and why then lafitet it upon Mont
fiomery, the people of which have asked for no change*
and want none? The hill should cot pass.

It Is estimated that the oil product of Yenango county,
Poinsylvania, Is at least 10.000 barrels daily. This, at
the average price often dollars, atthe Welle, which is a
low average, will give one hundred thousand dollars a
day, or over thirty-one million dollars a year. The
number of wells on Oil Creek, In July, 1862, was seven

down, and going down. In the county, la estimated at
between three and fourthoruand.

the suggestion. The American Exchange and Eeciew,
discussing the question Of the difference in the epsci Ac
cess of the reports which should be exacted, of moneyed
corporations and mining ventures, which include of
course oil companies, eaye:
“To give to such undertakings the impress of fair
business venture ie witnin the powers of the respective
State Legislatures, upon the establishment of the re
quisite authority, a uniform system of (say quarterly)
reports should be adopted {with balance sheet),conc&tn

“It is deer that trader each a system our oil compa

the average value per < trace is about $19.25 for every
year exceeding $l9. whereas the average value of the

It will be observed on an examination that each of the
two great gold ports reached its highest exportation in
1858, and its lowest In ’6l, From ’62 to ’6B, Melbourne
surpassed San Francisco; since ’59 the American has
surpassed the Britieh city. The late increase in the
shipments of Sen Francisco is owing to ATevada and
Idaho! the late increase is the shipments of our trans
pacific rival is due to How Zealand.

The Hew York Poet of yesterday says:
The suspense relative to the military situation has its
effect in checking the business of the Stock Exchange,
and the heavy drafts on some of the national banks
compel them to call initheir loans, , „ ... ,
Bence there is on One tide a feverish indisposition to
buy, and on the other a necessity for realizing, which,
is the present incertitude and irritable condition of the
public - mind, depresses quotations for the moment,
notwithstanding the lnflatiosof the currency might lead
lo the anticipation of an advance.
Gold is dull, and quotation* are lower than yesterday,
-the decline being attrihutedin part to the ahanisnee of
gold on hand for delivery. The loan market 1* more
active, as the national banks have less money to lend.
The prevailing rate la .6 per cent. Commercial paper
passes at B@9 for high-grade acceptable names. The
stock market opened dull, and closed heavy Govern
