_ since the overthrow of all his prophesies and
the refutation ol all his arguments, by the total
collapse of the rebellion, Colorado Jewett has not
been heard of. We wonder where he Is. Has he anv
.more peace conferences to palaver about 1 or any
snore International law to expound In various and
exceedingly abstruse questions 11 Involving our
foreign relations 1”
The return of our armies has deprived hundreds
and thousands of officers of their commands. But
many otheis, from merit and other considerations,
have been retained In command, among them we
note General Custer, who takes command of the
Department of Missouri, which embraces the States
of Missouri and Arkansas, Major General John
,H. Hogan, who Is now la oomm&bd of the Army of
Tennessee, sucoeeds Major General Howard.

Generals Custer and Morritt left night before last
for the West.
Our Washington despatches, In another co
lumn, announce that Davie and Breckinridge have
been lndloted, and are to be tried for treason. But
vse believe they are not the only ones among the
rebel leaders. Hee Is said also to he In danger of a
similar indictment, as well as James A. Seddon,
ex-rebel Secretary of War, who has just been ar

Soldiers’ Families*
To the Editor of Tit Press:
Sm: I have been called on this morning, for as
sistance by two individual’, and ask to lay their
cases before your benevolent readers.
First. The wife of one of our brave marines. By
her needle and 16 per month of her husband’s pay,
she has managed to seenre a very scanty living for
Herself and three small children. One of these
children, a few weekß ago, sickened and died. The
undertakers bill of $2O is iu my hands, and she is
moreover compelled to leave her house for non-pay
ment of rent. She is a very nice, modest, and in
telligent woman. 1 told her I would make this ap
peal for her and give her what I oould obtain.
Surely there will be, 88 there ought to be, a cheer
ful and liberal response.
Second. A maimed and slot soldier from Chester
Hospital, with a line from his lieutenant, addressed
to me. He has had no pay for twelve months. His
wife and two children axe In the most needy olroum-
Stances. lie rocs to them to-day on a twenty-four
henr pass, to find pinching want and an empty
table. I furnished him with as much as I could
spare for a oomfortable meal with his family, and
told him I would make this appeal for him, and
give his wife whatever might be sent me. Contribu
tors will please state for which of these cases they
send their contributions. How much good your
spare mites will do these and soores of other such
«aseS Will he known only on the great day.
I could fill columns of your paper with teariul
cases, but must not tresspass on your kindness too
much. Indeed, did I write all such oases, I would
have time for little else. ...

A Horrible Affair*
A day or two since the neighborhood of Douglas
place, near the Chicago driving park, Ouijago,
were thrown Into great excitement oy the discove
ry ofseveral human skeletons, which were found ly*
log on the prairie, about a hundred yards from the
?oad, half burled in quicklime. The people were
-naturally horrified at such a ghostly spectaale,
which, to them, seemed to signify the finale of some
dreadful and mysterious tragedy.
The news spread rapldh, and crowds of people
hurried to the spot. The flesh was still clinging to
the bones, the skulls were In some instances sawed
asunder, the bodies were all cut up into sections,
and the odor proceeding from them was most offen
sive.
information of the circumstance was Immediate
ly sent to tfc* central police Station;fl, detective was
deputed to investigate the matter. On proceeding
to the spot he found lying on the prairie, a little
apart from the houses, four human skeletons, em
bedded in about four barrels of Ume, the barrels
having been broken and scattered aboat the ground
2>fot far from the place a trench had been dug and
hastily covered up again' In which It Is supposed
were several more skeletons. Oa the turf near it
lay a few bones, and a scalp with the ears and whis
kers still attached to it. Fingers, toes, shoulder,
blades, and every conceivable fraction of the hu
man body were lying scattered about In every di
rection. The bones were cc ilocted and will be pro
perly interred. The matter Is undergoing investi
gation by the police for the purpose of discovering
the authors of this hideous outrage.
Mybtbbious Quite an excitement was created
In Cyntbtana, Kentucky, on Monday last, by the
Ending of about (I.COO In sliver in a cellar. It seems
that about a year ago, while a flight WSB going Otl Id
Cynthiana, between John Morgan’s and Geo- Hob
son’s forces,several buildings were set on fire by the
rebels and deettoyed. The rubbish of one of these
tbnildlvgs has remained unoisturbed until a few
fiay* since, when the owner of the ground put a
force at work clearing away the debriß. While thus
engaged the workmen suddenly came upon a pile of
silver, when a general scramble ensued. The cellar
was quickly filled by an excited crowd, and the coin
nathered up- The fact that no person in Cynthlana
claims the money excites some curiosity as to how it
eame there. The general opinion Ib. we understand,
that It was placed In thKpPPer part of the building
hv some rebel, before the fight, and when the house
was destroyed by fire It fell into tbe cellar. There
is* suspicion, also, tkat the coin m a portion or
Siat taken from the Carrollton Bank about ei*h
tfen months ago,'hot how it ever got Into the plaoe
where It wm found will perh»ps forever remain a
BBUGIOVS IBTEIXIGENCB.
Religious Bicebbino.—We see, in many of tbe
newspapers, long catalogues of charges against the
Oathollo Church of the country, and bints that It Is
end savoring to gain political power so as to dlreotus
Its own ends. The New York Methodist and Boston
Record , of last week, are the leaders In the attack—
the one adducing the tone of the so-oalled Oathollo
newspapers, during the war, and the religious sentf
meats of some of the rebel conspirators, and the
«ther pointing ont certain things which It believes
to be suspicions when connected with our form of
government. These articles have provoked caustic
replies in the Springfield. Republican and other jour*
nals, and a good deal of unnecessary bitterness Is
manifested on both Bides. The whole controversy Is
the result of unchristian prejudice, and SO good can
arise from any “ religious civil war,** as some of the
disputants choose to call what they are laboring to
bring about.
Presbyterian General Assemblies Pro
posed Reunion.— The General Assembly of the
Old School Presbyterian Church Is now in session
at Pittsburg, and that of the New School at Brook
lyn. Both met on the 18th Inst. The usual busi
ness occupies moat of their sessions, and our space
does not permit any extended notice of It. The
most important question of all, that has demanded
the attention of either of the Assemblies, is a pro
posed reunion of the diverse branches. The com
mittee on bills and overtures, in the Old Sohool As
sembly, is now considering Beveral communication
from NewiYork presbyteries, proposing a consoli
dation. A plan has been presented by which dele
gates from each or The divisions &reto meat and
prepare articles of union \ and blhoo both hold their
next Assembly simultaneous, in St Louis, la 1856,
the plan oan be acted on simultaneously. Last
year, the same BUbject was considered at Dayton,
but the Assembly adjourned without taking any
final action. As it Is again to be debated this year,
a history of the schism will be Interesting. The
main facts are presented 1a the following from a re*
Igions paper i
In 1801 a plan or union was adopted by the Con
gregational and Preßbyterlan Oaurohes outside of
New England, In order to enable churches of one
communion to employ pastors belonging to the
other, and to be recognized as under the charge of
ecclesiastical bodies of the same denomination as
the minister, without changing the mode of govern
ment In the congregation. The Presbyterians for
a bug time obtained cue advantage, particularly
in Northern Ohio and Western New York, by this
arraigement. But when 11 revivalism” swept over
the churches, particularly the Congregational, It
carried with It an lntusion of latltudiaarianism In
theological matters. The “ New Lights,” as the
lrlecds of the “new measures” were sometimes
called, were less severely Caivinlstio than their
brethren, and their sentiments overspread the sy
nod s and presbyteries which had included the
greater number of Congregational Churches. The
abolition element also aided to widen the spilt.
The Old Sohool men attempted to arrest the storm.
Ecclesiastical trials were instituted In 1836—first,
that of Rev. Lyman Beecher, of Lane Theological
Seminary, and then that of Rev. Aloert Barnes, of
Philadelphia. Both these distinguished clergymen
came out triumphant; but the utter feeling engen
dered by the controversies led to final disruption.
In IB3T the General Assembly adopted a resolution
repealing the “ Plan of Union” with the Congrega
tional churches. The allegation against the latter
was that they were eating away the integrity of
Presbyterianism. The Assembly, without the for
mality of an ecclesiastical proceeding, proceeded
to vote the Synod of Western Reserve, two
synods In Western New York, and a pres
bytery in Delaware, out of Its jurisdiction.
The exscinded bodies, regarding this action as un
constitutional, sent commissioners to the General
Assembly, as usual, In 1838, but they were refused
seats. They withdrew at once, together with their
friends, and organized the u Constitutional” Gene
ral Assembly at Doctor Barnes’ ohuroh, la Phila
delphia. For nearly thirty years the spectacle has
existed of two rival ecclesiastical organizations,
having one dlsclpllte and one confession of faith.
As the men passed away who had taken part in the
original controversy their successors have begun to
oosMder the 6ubjeet of reunion. The abolition of
Blavery has removed one great Impediment *, as the
dlsfellowshlp of the disloyal churches weakens the
Old School Church and gives the New Sohool a
greater relative preponderance. The Gongrega
ilonalists, also, are becoming stronger at the North,
and so are gradually drawing their churches away
from Presbyterian supervision. Last year the suo
ject of returning to one organization was considered
in their General Assembly at Dayton, and this year
will be entertained by the Old School Assembly at
Petersburg.
Baptist Colleges. —The University at Lewis
burg, Pa-, is said to be In a critical position. An
endowment subscription has b Mil made, conditioned
that one hundred thousand dollars be subscribed by
the 15th of May, but it falls short 'by twenty thou
sand dollars, and the failure is likely to necessitate
the closing of all the schools. On the other hand,
the two universities controlled by the Baptists la
the State of New York seem to be very successful
In their endowment- Rochester is about completing
a fund of one hundred thousand dollars for the theo*
logical department, and Madison has just received
a gift ol sixty thousand dollars, one-half of which
constitutes an “ educational fund,” to be used as
tchcJarßhJpß for the immediate benefit of soldiers
who have served In the army or navy of the United
States, and are without adequate means to prose
cute their education. These scholarships are ultl
matelv to be used by students for the ministry. The
other half is to constitute a “ presidential fund,”

Items in Miniature.-— The receipts of the Board
of Missions of the O. S. Presbyterian Church have
been such as to enable the Board to offer to all the
missionaries Of the Board a special donation of
twenty*five per cent, upon the amounts given them
In the year just closed. .
The English Congregational Year Book gives the
number of Congregational ctmrches in Great Bri

Britain and wales, 2 262; in the colonies, 235; In
foreign lands, 176—total. 2,653. Theological stu

Side by aide with missionary meetings, the good
people of England have to endure a “thorn in the
flesh,” in the shape of an “ Anthropological Socie
ty,” holding its sessions In London, and trying to
prove that these missionary operations not only do
no good, but Inflict a positive Injury on mankind.
Bishop Coze, of Western New York, met with a
pleasing experience the other day. He made an
Episcopal visitation to the Cburoh of the Evange
lists, at Oswego, and at the close of the services the
children sang a hymn, “The Latter Day,” which
the Bishop had written twenty-five years ago.
The large number of Germans in the northern
part of the State and their destitution Of adequate
religious Instruction causes muohanxtety. In New
ark the churches of the Presbyterian and other
denominations are making vigorous effortb to supply
the religious wantß of this people. Some $B,OOO has
been raised to aid German churches In Newark,
Paterson and Bloomfield.
The U. S. Chrißtlan Commission announces the
intention to discontinue Its operations as soon as the
necessities shall cease which reqnired Its organiza
tion.
The Christian along with other Epis
copal journals, takes square ground against recent
performances In the church connected with the
Greeks and the Presbyterians. It opposes the use
of Episcopal churches for miscellaneous religions
purposes, and suggests the passage of canons to
prohibit it.
Bishop Whipple’S relatives have just received
news from Jerusalem that the Bishop is lying there
very low with the Syrian fever, with the chances
against his recovery*
A movement Is on foot to establish a theological
school in Washington for the education of colored
Baptist ministers. About fifty of these preachers
have been found In and around Washington, whose
names have already been enrolled as pupils.
There are 812 local preachers In the Philadelphia
Conference, distributed as follows: On North Phila
delphia district* 86; South Philadelphia district,
77; Beading district, 53; Wilmington district, 53;
Easton district, 84. This Is a decrease of thirty-four
since the last year. .
The leading article in the American Presbyterian
for last week Is entitled “ Reunion postponed.”
From its drift It appears that tbe New and Old
SChCOI Presbyterians are not so near together as it
was supposed they were a little While ago.
The Episcopal bishops at the Sonth anticipate no
difficulty in a fraternal reunion with their brethren
of the Northern dioceses.

ment's Church In this city, mortgaging certain pro
perty, and to the Ofcnrcnof the Redeemer, in Lower
Morion, and St. James, Klngse&slng, selling certain
real estate.
The report was accepted.
The report of the committee on the division of the
dlooege was taken up. Mr. Welsh thought the
church would he benvfitted by the division, and
cited a number of instances in connection with
church labor or an interesting character, In support
of Ms resolutions. He contended that a sum as pro
vided for in his resolutions should be raised and
tunded for the support of the Epiaoopate In the new
diocese. H would be impossible, In the convention,
to fix tbe line of division of tbe new diocese ; that
would be done by the general convention. It was
for this convention to determine whether the forma
tion of a new diocese was desirable, and whether it
would be beneficial to the church. The subject had
been before the convention tor years, and had been
fully and ably discussed. The speaker was of
opinion that It would be beneficial to the church In the
western pare of the diocese. The Bishop would re
side amongst the clergy and parishes of that section,
and could add tenfold to their usefulness.
The Rev. Dr. Hare deßlred to amend the resolu
tion by adding, 11 that sueb consent to a division be
granted, to take effect on and after October next,
provided it will be made to appear on or before that
dme to the satisfaction Of the standing committee
of the Diocese, that an income of not less than
#2 600 per annum be guaranteed as a support of the
Episcopate of the Diocese to be set off ”
The Rev. O. E. Swope, of Pittsburg, was not
here to question the right of the Bishop in regard to
Ms statement that he would not give his consent to
a division of the Diocese until the sum of twenty,
five or thirty thousand dollars was raised and funded
tor tbe Bupport of the Bishop. The speaker would
question the right of the Bishop, however, to influ
ence the action of the Convention. The B
was aware that his Rt. Rev. Father In God had no
such Intentions.
The proposed division will give the new diooese
about 16.000 square miles of territory, and a popula
tion of about 800 000 souls. This statement was
based won foots derived from the last census and
It was well known this ratio had .beep largely-in
creased since that census was tlkenf afid the .num
ber to-day Is not muob lees than one mtltion of
people residing within-the proposed boundaries or
the new dlooeße. Compare this country with any
other section of its size, and it cannot be surpassed
for wealth and population. -The speaker thought
he could guarantee that within less than sixty days
after the consent for a division of the diocese had
been given, more than doable the sum required for
support of the new bishop could be raised.
F. R- Bruuot, Esq., ;ot pKta.bure, said that the
Church In the western part of the State was empha
tically weak, and would be rendered still more
feeble If It had our Hpfsoopate to support* The
speaker contended that the consent of the Bishop
was necessary to the change, and that consent had
been forced from him. The Ohuroh very wisely
protected parishes already Inexlstenoe, from having
rural eburohes established within certain limits.
This was the splrlt of the Ohuroh, and the propo
sition to form a new diocese was to opposition to
that spirit. The'speaker contended that the new
dlooeßO would Boon be subject to the same spirit Of
division as existed In the present case. Its Conven
tion would be oalled upon to grant permission to
Erie, and perhaps to Butler, to zorm separate dio
ceses.
The Rev. D. W. C. Morris, of Germantown, said
that the Bishop had the whole matter in his own
hands. He had to)d the Convention what he would*
do, and the amendment offered proposes to ask tbe
consent of the Standing Committee to the project.
He was opposed to the plaoing of the disposition of
the question into the hands of a third party.
Hon. Thomas J. Bingham, of Pittsburg, thought
the amendment should be declared out or order, as
It proposed the referring of the whole subject to the
decision of’a committee, to whom, by parliamentary
observances, it did not belong.
It was a breach of legislative usages. The amend
ment was clearly unconsti utional, and the Stand
ing Committee had no authority In matters of this
nature, and It was an imputation upon the-exeou
ttve—the Bishop—whose authority was received
from a higher power than the convection.
Rev. Mr. Moms contended that Pittsburg and
locality was abundantly able to support a bishop.
Pittsburg had a population of near 200,600, and a
bishop wonld not crush the life out of the diocese,
as the last speaker had Btated, but would crush life
into it. Tblß motion for a new diocese began In
1803, and when Philadelphia .had only five preßby-%
tors. It bad then asked tora chief Shepherd throu<h
a meeting of four presbyters. It w&b renewed again
In 1816, and a delegate sent from Worthington to
Ohio to ask this boon, but who was oanoDloaSly una
ble to take a seat in the Convention held in this
city.
It was Impossible for one or two, or even three
bishops to give a proper oversight to a diocese
as large in extent as Pesnsylvabla. *
Hon. Thomas J. Bingham, of Pittsburg, hoped
that the president wonld declare the amendment
ont of order. It proposed, as the speaker previ
ously had stated, the referring of the whole subjeot
to the decision of a committee, to whom, by pariia
mentaryobBervance.it did not belong*- It was a
.breach of legislative usages. The amendment was
clearly unconstitutional, and the standing commit
tee had no authority in matters of this nature. It
was an imputation upon theexeoutlve, the Bishop,
whose authority was received from a higher power
than the Convention. He hoped the president would
so view It.
George M. Wharton, Esq., regarded the amend
ment as invalid and unconstitutional. The constitu
tion does not eay that the Bishop mast firßt give his
consent, bat provides that both he and the conven
tion shall give their assent. It makes no difference
whloh is first to move la the matter. The Bishop
may at first object; but when he finds the Conven
tion give Its assent, he may change his mind.
Would that consent be illegally given 1 The Btshop
has absolute discretion. Wnat he dO6S &8 a Bishop
outside of this Convention we o&nnot con
trol: in the Convention, both, could mate
rially advise and act. The constitution says
that there shall be fifteen self-supporting par
ishes, and we have no right to give onr consent only
on the condition that there shall be twenty parishes.
He therefore submitted that this proposed amend
ment was Illegal, It was no argument to offer that
onr Church was weak in the western portion of the
diocese, and lacked vital energy. The qaestion
with him was not so much whether the Bishop
stould starve or not, but whether the diocese Itself
would starve. Dlecusslon of the subjeot was con
tinued, and participated In by the Rev. Drs. Leeds
and Goodwin, and Rev. John H. Drumm, up to the
honr of adjournment, without a vote being taken.
Evening Session.— The Convention was cilia
to order shortly after five o’clock.
Mr. Austin moved that a Bum not exceeding $5OO
be appropriated to the use of tbe Bishop for travel
ling and other expenses during the oomlng year.
Agreed to. , •
Rev. D. O. Kellogg moved that debate upon the
subject of a division of the diocese be ceased at six
o’clock, and that a vote upon the subject be taken
at that hour.
Rev. Robert G. Chase moved an amendment
that speaking be confined to ten minutes, and that
no one be allowed to speak more than twice upon
the same subject. The amendment was adopted.
Rev. Mr. Camming spoke in favor of the division.
Mr. Robb opposed the act of secession, as he
termed it, and asserted that the mass of the people
were opposed to it.
The debate was continued at great length, and a
rote on Dr. Goodwin’s amendment—“that the mat
ter be referred to the several parishes composed In
tbe proposed new diocese for their consideration,
and that they report at tbe next Convention”—was
taken, and the amendment was lest*
Dr. Hare’s amendment—” that suoh consent to a
division be granted, to take effect on and after Oc
tober next, provided it will be made to appear on or
before that time, to the satisfaction of the Standing
Committee of the diocese, that an Income of not less
than $2 600 per annum be guaranteed as a support
of the Episcopate of the diocese to be setoff”—was
then taken np. .
Judge Stroud ridiculed the Idea that It would be
unconstitutional to Impose terms upon whloh the
diocese should be divided, and instanced the admis
sion of Missouri into the United States. The Con
arem of the United States refused to admit Missouri
until she had amended her State Constitution,
whloh prevented a colored map from, coming within
her State lines.
The amendment of Dr. Hare was lost—yeas 62,
nays 150.
The resolution offered by Mr. Welsh, that the Con
vention consent to the formation of a new diocese In
the western portion of this State, having for ltß
eastern limit the eastern lice or McKean, Cameron,
Clearfield, Cambria, and Somerset counties—that,
under existing circumstances, this Convention
considers that a sum of not less than $3O 000
should be safely invested for the support of the
Episcopate before the consent of the Bishop of this
diocese Is asked for.
The vote was taken by order, each member voting
yea or nay as his came was called.
Tbe resolution was adopted.
The clerical vote stood, yeas 100, nays 42; the pa
rish vote was; yeas 58, nays 18.
Bishop Starves said he was at a loss how to decide,
there being less than a quorum voting, and there
being no special law regulating an election of this
kind. After some debase the Bishop decided that
the resolutions of Mr. Welsh had passed.
A resolution of thanks to the new wardens and
vestrymen of St. Andrews Church passed.
The members united in sieging the Gloria 1q Ex
celsls. Prayer was offered, and the benediction
pronounced by the Assistant Bishop, when the Con
vention adjourned sine die.

Inconstancy of Woman. —A short time
since we noticed the arrest of a woman on the
charge of throwing vitriol in the face of a youag
man named Henry De Wolfe. The daughter of the
accused married a man lu this city, and shortly af
terwards left him, and married De Wolfe. At the
time of the arrest of her mother she clung to De
Wolfe; but after her mamma was released from
prison, having obtained bail, she seems to have
changed her mind. She appeared before Reoorder
Enen yesterday, and swore she was afraid De Wolfe
would kill her, as he had shown her a pistol, and
threatened to shoot her unless She lived with him.
Do Wolfe was arrested, and sent to prison, In de
fault of ball to keep the peace. After he had vitriol
thrown Is bis face he said he would go through fire
for his wife (7). He has gone to prison with her full
consent, at any rate. >
Another Soldier Killed.— A corres
pondent writes to this paper the following account
of the killing of another soldier, on the railroad,
near Bristol. It would be prudent, we may say, lor
soldiers and other pedestrians to keep off the track.
By adopting this precaution, auoh an accident as the
correßponspondent speaks of oould not happen: ll The
train leaving'Kenslngton depot at 3 o'clock yesterday
afternoon, ran over and killed a wounded Boldter,
When about three-quarters of a mile from Bristol,
and on nearly the same spot where another one was
killed only afew weeks ago, and both lives lost by the
high and reckless rate of speed this train of light
and nerly empty catß is always run between the
Nesh&mony Bridge and Bristol, and which, on this
occasion, ran well Into the town before It could be
checked by the brakes, full a half mile after the ac
cident. And as there men were killed after passing
the first curve the track takes alter a straight ran
of nearly two miles, will not only account for these
poor men losing their lives, but will also explain
how so many were billed and wounded a short time
since by a night train, (when It was discovered that
no one was to blame.) Your Informant had pre
viously notified tbe executive officer ol the road or
the fact of this constant risking the lives of their
passengers, and Sad tne proper orders been glT.n
and carried out, these lives, in all proballty, would
have been saved*
Specie for the People.— The following
regulations lor the distribution of nickel coin have
been made by the National Government. These will
speedily take the plaoe of three and five-oest cur
rency notes. Some of the conductors on the oars
yesterday had their pockets weighed down with the
specie, and seemed glad to lighten themselves of
the burden:
»* The bronze one and two and the nickel three
cent coins can now be had at the Mint, Without de
lay, or limitation &g to amount, in exchange for toe
gold or silver coins or legal’tender notes of the
United States. The new three-eent pieces are put
up in bags of thirty dollars each, and this sum or
any larger amount, of which thirty Is a multiple,
Will be rer.t when ordered.
11 The reasonable expensespf the transportation of
the cents and three«ent pieces, In Budqb of thirty dol
lars or upwards, to atfv polot accessible by railroad
or steamboat, will be paid by the Ml at.
“ The Adamß Express Company will act as agents
for parties ordering cents, Ac, to which money or
drafts on national banks payable to tnelr order may
be sent, and the coins ordered will be forwarded
when the money Is received ©r the drafts collected.”
Union Volunteer Refreshment Sa
loon.— I This Is the anniversary day of the forma
tion of the Union Volunteer Refreshment Saloon.
The only public notice that will be taken thereof
will be the firing of thirty-six guns. The o immlctee
expect to be busy during the coming weeks In pro
viding for the returning soldiers. When their la
bors are completed the saloon will be closed with ap
propriate ceremonies.
About 600 regular United States troops passed
through the city at 2 o’clook yesterday morning on
their way to New York. They took breakfast at the
Volunteer Refreshment Saloons.
Employment for Maimed Soldiers.—
The following communication speaks for itself:
u WM yon please o&U the attention of merchants,
manufacturers, and others to the fact that I know
many maimed men capable Of acting as clerks,
cobvlets. time keepers, weigh masters, &o. These
men are either discharged from the servioe or are
about to be. They are unable to provide for them
selves as heretofore. Almost every day applicants
for such positions make their desires known to me.
Will not a committee of our citizens take this mat
ter In band, and put these men, “from oar brave
armies.” In position to support themselves 7 I will
be glad to receive applications for such persons.
“Yours respectfully,
“ John Long, Chaplain U. S. A.,

CONVICTION OF A PASSENGER RAILWAYOONDUCTOB.
The oase of Joseph Shill, formerly a conductor on
the Union Passenger Railway Company, charged
with embtzzlement, was called up for trial. The
accused swore that an Important witness was
away, he having formerly been a driver on the
road. He old not know where he was, except that
be was travelling with a circus oompany, the pre
cise location of which was unknown.
The court decided that the ground laid for the
postponement was not sufficient, and the case was
proceeded with.
Mr. Goforth suggested that If any of the jurors
owned stock in the Union Passenger Railway, or
other passenger railway companies, they were in
competent to serve.
hi r. Mann said he had no objection to those who
owned stock in the Union Company, but to say a
man could not sit on a jury because he owned stock
in a railway oompany would render a number in
competent. It might aB well be said that a man
could not sit In a burglary case beoause he lived in
a house that might have been broken into.
The Court icstructed the jury that If they owned
stook In the Union Passenger Railroad they could
net sit on the jury.
Mr. Mann. None of them seem to be so unfortu
nate, sir.
The evidence was proceeded with as follows;

and paid.
All the polioemen were cross-examined as to
whether the passengers paid In money or tloketß,
hut as they could not tell what it was that each one

The Common wealth thus oh&rge the accused with
taking seventy* two fares that day for which he did
not account to the company.
Tbe defence offered no evidence, claiming that
nothing had been shown by the Commonwealth, to
attaob any guilt to tbe accused,'he, in fact, on same
trlpß having accounted for more passengers than
the officers testify were in the oar.
The jury received the bill at three o’clock, and

COTJMTBBVBIT FIBHKILL BANK KOTBS.
A man giving the name of James Murray was ar
raigned at the Central Station yesterday afternoon
on tbe charge of passing counterfeit $5 notes, pur
porting to be the true Issue of tbe Bank of Flshkill,
New York. Fourorfive Jew clotblers on South street
were victimized on Thursday night by a man pass
ing some of the spurious notes upon them. One of
the olothlers appeared and produced a note, and
. testified positively to the fact that the accused passed
It upon him, having purchased a woolen shirt on
Thursday evening. Another storekeeper testified
that the prisoner called at hie store and offered a
Bimiiar note, but it was refused, and he went away.
The prisoner denied most positively that ho passed
a£v notes. He said he received one note at his
boarding house, and that he oalled upon a store
keeper and offered It for some article that he desired
to purohase. He was committed to answer at oourt.
Philip Thomas and James Brossley had a final
hearing at tbe Central Station yesterday, on the
cbßTge of committing a violent assault and battery
on George H. Stevens, on Wednesday night last,
In the vicinity of Second and Walnut streets. There
WBB no evidence as to provocation. Mr. Stevens
was knocked down and brutally kicked la the body
and facej he was shockingly disfigured. Dr- Kings
ton Goddard, Jr., testified that Mr. Stevens was
badly injured; an artery In his arm was bleeding;
and that it is probable a surgical operation would
bave to be made in order to take it up. The eyes of
Mr. S. were shockingly injured, but the sight may
be retained. His mse appears broken. The de
fendants were committed to answer. Ball $2,000.
Jacob Dar.nah was arraigned for horsewhipping a
boy named Joseph Maglone, a little fellow not quite
twelve years of Bge. The fact of the arrest and one
or two particulars were published In The Pres* yes
terday. it seems from the Investigation that the
driver, who was seated on his box, suddenly sprang
to the pavement and whipped the boy without
mercy. Two citizens hastened to the resoue of the
child, whereupon the driver “ clubbed his whip,”
and jo6t as be was about to make a demonstration
on them Officer Newman arrived and took him Into
custody- The lad made a statement that himself
and another little boy werb walking where the car
riage was, and seeing a cat Tan at It playfully
alongside of the carriage; the man jumped at him,
and cut him seven or eight tlmeß with the whip*
The prisoner attempted to justify the act because
boys were in the habit of scratching c&Trlages, and
be thought the boy whom he had whipped had done
so. It appears tbe carriage was not scratched. The
prisoner was bound over in $l,OOO to answer at
court.
Andrew Henry, wbo has served out several terms
in prieon, for robbery and murderouß outrages, was
arraigned yesterday on the charge of committing
an unprovoked assault and battery on Oaleb wil
liams, the driver or a passeugercar. It speme Henry
attempted to get Into tbe car through a wlnty*,
but was driven back by Mr. Williams. The intruder
then proceeded to the front platform and struck the
driver a severe blow, which lacerated and bruised
bis cheek. Sergeant Atkinson arrested the ag
gressor, and, while coDductlogblm to the station
house, an attempt was made to rescue him by a dis
reputable gang, whoshoweredstones,brickbats, and
other missiles upon the offleer. The prisoner was
cot rescued. Upon being searched at the station
house, a loaded revolver was found lu his packet.
Two chambers were loaded. The accused WAS com
