Stocked BEathiews, and others. A large and enthusiastic meeting of eiti- ZeUS of the Tenth ward Wag held last evening at Broad and Race streets. A band of music, a display of pyrotechnics, and the lttnial paraphernalia of political meetings was DU hand. The meeting was called to order by the se lection of ex-Governor James Pollock as chair man. upon taking the chair the presiding Officer called attention to tile 'purposes for -which those present had assembled ; to reite rate their devotion to the principles which ac tuated our late lamented and deeply revered President, and upon which our glorious Com monwealth of States bade fair to exist for ever,. to declare their preferences for the atanuard.bearers of a - party which championed thepgliamples and ideas of a progressive and powurful nation. The speaker referred to the ellinteter of the Union candidates for State andirtunicipal ()dicers, paying a deserved and highly eloquent compliment to the nominee for mayor, Morton McMichael, Esq. He urged the importance of supporting regular nomi nations, for by divisions among themselves the party would likely fall a prey to the politi cal enemy. In conclusion, he proposed three cheers for the Union candidates, which were imme diately given. The following were chosen officers of the meeting e VICE P.III:BIDhIiTS, Alfred Id.

P. 7 roth, • I Win. J. Pascoe. J.11a•;-nwnd Claghorn,l Eon. John Cessna, chairman of the Union State Central Committee, was the next speaker. Upon being introduced he stated that it was not his intention to address the meeting, but considering it to be his duty, in view of the oilletal position to which the partiality of his /Iloilds had elevated him, to superintend the meet MO of the party, as iar as in his power . Be had been present. There were a number of noted orators present, and lie would therefore occupy only sufficient time to notice a few prominent points in theargument of the party to which he belonged, The platform and declarations of the Demo cratic party were reviewed by the speaker. lie contended that She Union man who at the ensuing election threw away his ballot upon an independent candidate, or the man who supported the so-called Democratic ticket, voted to declare the war a failure and its fruits a disgraceful debt and useless slaughter; that the American nation was wrong in taking up arms against rebels, and that the rebellion was produced by the election of a President according to our constitutional forms of law. And every Union man in Pennsylvania who thus failed to sustain the candidates of his own party went half-way in aid of the opposi tion, because every vote thus thrown away on an outside or independent candidate, was equal to half acute fur the rebels on the other side. RESOIXTIONS. John E. Valentine, Esq., read the following resolutions, which were adopted 'without dissent ..• Reso trea, That we are for the Union and the Con stitution; for the Union as it is; for the Constitu tion as one fathers mane it. and for the proposed amendments thereto: and for the enforcement of the taws upon all oileasiona, and against all viola- tors f hereof. Regolced, That we cordially endorse the nomina tions of the Union Party for State, city and ward officers, and will use every honorable means to en sure lie' success of the whole Union Whet, .Reseteed, That as we gave our support to the Go vernment in its efforts to crush the slaveholdersi rebellion, so we will give the same to enable it to securc to our country the legitimate fruits of vie- Rteubled. That the prosperity of our merchante, mechanics', laborers and, tn fact, of all classes or our citizens during the war and since Its close, af fordsuftleient answer and proper retinae to the des picable croakings and the malicious predictionsof the so-called Democrats, whose sole efforts were directed to embarrass their country in the hettr of -•— . . her Resolved, That it is the bounded duty of Congress to afford protection to American industry by a ju dicious tariff. Citizens by birth and citizens by choice have alike a just claim for protection against, ruinous eoinietition with foreign labor. Resolved, That the party which proclaimed our country ruined and the war a failure upon the ere of our glorious conquest of an honorable Peace, does not merit the support or confidence of the people. General John L. Swift, of Louisiana, was in troduced by the chairman as a representative of that State—once a Southern State,lnat now one of the United States of America. He had proven his devotion to his country by acting as aid-de-camp to General Kilpatrick, the great raider, who was now engaged in New Jersey, making a raid upon the enemy there. General Swift spoke as follows Mu. Enzsuinxx AMID F4E.LOW-CITIZEBIS f. I am announced to you as being from the State of Louisiana. It is true that my citizenship is at present there located, but I wish to say-that I have been a resident of the North. And let me say that during my attendance at one of the universities or the !North, whits I was re ceivingmy education, I had the good fortune of bearing what appeared to me to be the most eloquent and profound speech to which my ears bad opened. I listened as a mere boy to a gentleman whose hair was then silver ed with premature gray, and who took as his theme the great question of labor. In language that would have been creditable to the most polished scholar, _Morton McMichael described the growing importance of the wheat-fields of Pennsylvania and the corn hills of the East and West, and advocated the necessity for their protection. And I said to Myself that if any man in this country would govern me, in my political opinion or in my pathway in life, lie must first have studied this momentous question as had my friend McMichael. I have been announced to you, my fellow citizens, as an aid-de-camp to Gen. Kilpatrick. It has never been my honor to even know that gentleman, or-to be his aid, except in his bat tie in New Jersey ;lint let me say that while Kilpatrick enabled this country to bring back the Southern States to this Union, he has not forgotten his native State„butile now trying to bring it back. And I will tell you another thing; he is going to do it. Now, if anybody has come here with the idea that Gen. Kilpat rick was to speak, and is obliged to listen to me instead, I really regret the fact. The difference between Gen. Kilpatrick and my self is like the case of the man who had a horse to sell, and asked $3OO for the animal. He rode him up and down Market street and was then offered 9dl for him. I , 'Well," said the owner, t , I w ill take it ; but it is the heaviest discount I ever made." With the local politics of Philadelphia, and the respective qualifications of its local can didates, the speaker said he had nothin_g to do ; but lie claimed to bean American. Wldle kings and princes held their offices by her edi tarc right, we held our titles to American citizenship by the permission alone of Al mighty God. Every man and woman had an interest in any election which had a bearing upon national matters. The country had passed through a sea of blood to enter upon a a cotest which was hether thatn to for which our soldiers determine had w fought was now to be surrendered ; and, un til the Copperhead party was laid out dead and cold, this country would not be one again. In his campaigns in New Jersey, the speaker said he had often been interro gated by persons among the audience, and the. most frequent question was whether this war was not brought on by the "nigger." It was true that during this contest the institution of human slavery had gone to the wall. But that institution was the ' -rand secret of Southern hostility to the Government. In reply to another interrogatory as to whether the Democratic party was not entitled to rule because it had already ruled the country longer than ar other party the the speaker narrated severalamusing incidents bearing on the point. To make permanent the peace which had been gained by the Union arms was the whole secret of present political management. As a soldier from the ranks, and in behalf of the thousands slain, he asked that this Government should not be permitted to pass back into the hands of Copperhead managers and traitors. In conclusion, he declared that not only would the glad welcome come up from Penn sylvania, but Ohio, New York and New Jer sey would give their voices and votes to strengthen that partywhich had fought for and maintained the Union cause. History would tell the great and noble story of how a giant wrong was slain, acid tow our country was thereby regenerated, amid the hosannahs of redeemed and enfranchised millions. His tory would also show that when the Hercules Of America strangled the hydra of secession and insurrection it strangled also the monster. Of human oppression. The speaker retired amid much applause, and was followed by Governor Curtin, whose appearance on the stand bad been weloonied by repeated outbursts of applause. The intro duction of his Excellency was accompanied by a scene of the most enthusiastic description, the vast crowd eheering lustily. The Governor, after referring to the interest which he felt in the coming election, and in the Success of the Union candidates in this patri otic city particularly Mn: McMichael urged upon his 'hearers the importance of discharg ing their obligations not only as partizans, but as American citizens. lie warned them of the consequences of apathy and indifference. In the determination of the great questions which were likely toprovesomomentousinthe future of our country, he was willingto give to President Johnson every assistance and sup. port. The President, by his antecedents, his avowed sentiments, before and since his occu pation of the Presidential chair, was with the Union party ; and if the Democratic party was really anions to support him, they would ask admission into our own ranks, and complete the organization of one great party, which now stood before the world as the vindicator of the true republican sentiment which is in terwoven In the woof and well Of our CQuati tution. For four years it had been the privilege of the speaker to stand between the citizen at home and the citizen in the den lie had be come too familiar with scenes of sickness, suffering, and death, and had seen too many evidences of the sincerity of the people of Philadelphia in their protestations of patriot. UM and love for the G,overnment, to suppose that now this city would falter in the work which still remained unfinished—that of set• tling forever, in this country, the status of slavery' and freedom. The Governor, in an able manner, exhorted Ms heroes to discharge the grat duty devolv.. ing upon them as American citizens in a man. ner becoming men worthy of such a responsi bility. In voting for a candidate for office, the people demonstrated their views on questions of government, and the result of the ensuing election would be taken as an evidence or their expressions on the vital questions at issue. After Music by. the band, Morton NeMiehael, Esq., was introduced as the next mayor. Ms reception was quite enthusiastic. In the course of his remarks Mr. 'McMichael referred to the unfounded charge made against him of hostility to the workingmen, lie pronounced the charge tobe false anomaiimous, unto the very agreeable interview between himself and a committee of workingmen, which happened a f ew gays ago, the speaker had not been ap. proached. by any one for an explanation of the charges which had been made and circulated without hie knowled.ge. For many y ears h e had identified himself with the interests of the workingmasseatif thtteity. The Charge, hOW eiltr,Vras not Mended as a personal attack,hut aal , blow at the r of d power weispensing the pa tronage of this great city, at s ing 9 1 4 Q Qt ohief executive of this city. Among other Calumnies circulated by the Opposition was one that the speaker was not favorable to the firemen. He was glad that such a charge had been mad e ; f o r, being a person of some observation, lie could not have failed to perceive that no body of men labored at more personal hazard, with less hope of re muneration than the Philadelphia firemen. There had ' been times, in years long gone by, when,, owing to the. Intl:mien Of Certain material into some of the companies, dis turbances arose in our streets. it was true, lic was then connected with the attempts to bring, about a reform. But since the introduc tion of steam engines and other improve ments, he had invariably been of the !opinion that no more enterprising, energetic, and suc cessful body of men could be found in Phila delphia. Their loyalty had been conspicuous. No body of men sent more soldiers to the front, and nobody of men at the front behaved with more gallantry and heroism than the firemen. And those who remained at home were frequently seen in the streets of our city rejoicing over the successes of the Union arms. 31 , or their patriotic impulses, the fire men of Philadelphia were deserving of all honor. The. speaker hoped that, - con Tuesday next there would go forth to the people of the coun try good tidings—tidings that the Democratic party, which had opposed the war, was still held in the same odium and contempt with which it had been properly held for so long a time. Colonel U. Stockett lifatthieus was then in trodneed, and made some brief remarks, after which the meeting adjourned. THE CITY. Philadelphia Baptist Association 158th Session.

That the doctrinal sermon by Rev. Dr. Kempton be delivered on Wednesday, at 11 A. M., or, in his absence, that a sermon be presehed by Dr. Jeffrey. Rev. Dr. Is.ennard moved that the third order be amended so that each society be allowed but fifteen minutes, and that the remainder of the evening be taken up in prayer and confer ence. There is too much hne taken up in secular business and not enough in religions exercises, which should be the object of the meeting. Rev. J. Wheaton Smith hoped not. The re ports which these societies would present would take up the whole evening, and they were well entitled to it. The report from the Freedmen's, and other associations, in which all of this Association are so much interested, will be brought forward this evening, and if the forwarding of the objects of that associ ation are not religious and devotional exer cises, he would like to know whatDs. The amendment was discussed at some length, and was finally adopted. The report, as amended, was adopted. Rev. J. Wheaton Smith moved that the bal ance of this (TueSday) evening after the interests of the Pennsylvania Baptist Canyon tiou, and the American Baptist home Mission Society are presented, be spent ht a free eon• ference with reference to the matter of Church extension of Pennsylvania. On motion, a committee was appointed to re ceive all applications relative to Church ex tension. On motion, a Committee on Circular Letter was appointed, as follows: G. W. Anderson, J. -. W. Smith and W. Cathcart. Dir, Case was nominated as assistant clerk. The hour of adjournment having arrived the Association adjourned with prayer by Dr. Gillette. The association reassembled at half-past seven o'clock, and after prayer and singing, the claims of the Pennsylvania Baptist Con vention, and the Baptist Home Mission So ciety, the objects and necessities of each were presented, and a collection was taken up which wag ordered to be equally divided between the two societies. The matter of church extension in Pennsylvania was then taken up and dis cussed, and the meeting closed with prayer and the delivery of the benediction. DESTRUCTIVE FlRE.—Last night, Shortly before eleven o'clock, a fire broke out in the lower story of the drug, paint, and plate-glass establishment of Ere= & Itieharda, at the N. W. corner of Tenth and Market streets. The firm occupy the corner building and two buildings on the west, numbered respectively 1001, 100r3, and 1005. The Are was confined to the building On the corner. It is five stories in height, and built Of brick, with plastered front and sides, and had a cupola upon it. The walls are sixteen inches in thickness. The building, with its contents, was entirely destroyed, The loss is estimated at $50,000. The amount of insurance is not yet ascertain. ed. The fire was what might be called a beau tiful one. The chemicals, of which there was a large stock, caused the fire to change color from red to blue, and again to green. As they belched out of the circular win - dows at the top of the building, they presented a fearful, yet beautiful aspect. The cupola took lire about half-past eleven o'clock, and after burning about half an hour fell in with a terri ble Crash. The noise of falling battles could be distinguished at intervals of every few minutes. The heat of the fire 'was intense, but the firemen stood at their post of duty most manfully. After those not in service were compelled to leave the im mediate scene of action, the buildings on the east side of Tenth street were saved through their exertions, though it was believed at one time, by all, to be impossible to do so. Had the flames crossed Tenth street the fire would have been most destructive., as there are stores with stocks of goods of very in flammable material there, including music, dry goods and china stores, in the latter of which' china is packed in straw. The ad joining buildings of Messrs. French & Inch ards were entirely saved, with their contents. Some of the valuable papers were got out of the corner store, but, with. this exception, the entire contents Were destroyed. TREMENDOUS FALL.—Mr. Schott a resi dent of the lower section of the city, fell more than one hundred and fifty feet yester day afternoon, but was not badly injured. A heated argument occurred between him and workmen employed in the same establish ment, which resulted in his being cast out of a window into a pond or race below. The friendly water saved him from utter annihila tion, but injured him so much that he is now swelled to a roundness which is even greater, in proportion, than that of Daniel Lambert, who was the fattest man in all " Merrie Eng land," THE TRIENNIAL CONVENTION OF THE P. E. Cuunon.—The twenty-eighth General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church will begin its sessions to-day. The opening religions services will consist of the administration of the holy Communion and the delivery of a sermon by Itt. Rev. Francis Fulford, D.

Z. Dehaven and others vs. Same. These.two cases, involving the right of the defendants to con struct a railroad on Broad street, were fixed for argument yesterday morning. Owing to a death in - the.family of Mr. Cuyier, one or the counsel for the complainant, the eases went over by agreement un til Friday. The answers of the defendants were filed, how ever; In both the answers is the 'same. They set forth that the bill of complainants is defective for want of proper parties; that the plaintiff has shown no title to the relief prayed, inasmuch as the city has ne power or authority to litigate the lawfulness of the exercise of corporate franchises, by a body Claiming to be a corporation, upon the grounds taken in the bill by fraud or conspiracy or noncom pliance with legislative requirements in the organi zation of a corporation..those being matters which the Commonwealth alone is retitled to litigate. Thejudge announced the folielwing rule yesterday morning: All depositions and affidavits to be used at Nisi Prins, either in law or equity, shall be in the first person and paragraphed, and each paragraph num bered consecutively. The delbudants further aver " Neither we nor the said corporation do now intend to construct any railway, or run ears, or do any corporate act upon any i treet or land south of the south side of Green and Broad streets, in the eitu of Philadelphia, or east of Broad street; nor tomake or use any railway or railroad, otber than the line of road along and over the line hereinafter set forlh, and we dh not intend to use the same when constructed otherwise than as said corporation, and then only with cars propelled or drawn by steam, for the carriage Of passengers; while we do not on the Other hand mean to surrender or disclaim any rights which, by the charter or acts of Assembly, are legally vested in said corporation." The bill then sets forth the organization of the corporation. Nisi Prins—Justice Strong. Yesterday, in answer to the question whether it was requisite that aliens should be naturalized ten days before the election, the judge held teat the right to vote depended upon the tact of the voter being a citizen at the time he offered his vote; that It was not necessary that he should be naturalized when assessed.

Question. Then this representation relative to wells Nos. I and 2 were a perfect swindle? Objected to and not answered. Witness continued.—Mr. lifilnor was superin tendent; he was living there; he resigned this sum mer; I yietted the Burning Spring property in May last; did not find seventy-live-barrel well; it was pumping seven or eight barrels per day; the first agent was Mr. Bethell; Mr: Hoffman then took charge; he reported that the well had produced sometimes thirty-five or forty barrels per day; it never produced seventy-five barrels per day to my knowledge; the greatest ever reported was twenty barrels, and it was afterwards reported at sixteen and ten barrels; some of my friends told ma that they subscribed because they understood that I was to be president Of the company; I was asked what I knew about the company, and stated what hadbeen told me by Mr. Castillon; I declined having any thing to do with it until assured by. Mr. Castilian that it was going to be a first-rate company and then my immediate family', here and in New York, - went in to the extent of $13,000; Mr. Cas tillon 1184 4,000 shares; understood that Mr. Hoffman owned part of the Virginia lands; that lie sold them to Mr. Castilian and Mr. Tingley, and they sold them to the company; they offered me five hundred shares of stock to become a corporator; I was the lint president; my salary was fixed at $2,5410, but I never received a cent; when I asked for it the treasury Was empty; Isaac E. Blien, super i f ntendent of the copany from 24th of June, 1805 or about two months m , went to the Burning Spring , tract and saw the wells; that well has a capacity of not over seven CM eight barrels per day; it had been represented that it produced thirty and forty bar rels per day; saw persons who had been familiar - with this well, and had conversations about it; was told that the well did not average over ten barrels per day ever since the company had It; think that the wells were about two years old when I went there; one of these pump about twenty-five or thirty barrels if left standing for two or three days. Wm. G. Williston testified that be was authorized to take saSeriirtions printed proeettigi that waS in September or October, the sp prosecutor, Mr. Alex. Janney subscribed on toy solicitation; I was at Mr. Tingley's office, and kir. Castillion often came in; they told me that they owned the pro perties; kir. Tingley told me that they got up the prospectus, and I got mine at Mr. Tingley's office; - Mr. Tingley paid me for getting subscriptions; Mr. Tingleyloldme that lie thought that the statements set forth in the prospectus, relative to the flow of the wells, was too high; Tingley saw that Mr. Cas tillon had a somewhat similar statement published in the Commercial List of October 15.1864. John Gulliver testified that Tingley told him that he went with Castilian to the printing-ofilce to have the prospectus printed; a conversation en sued between Tingley and Castilian about the statements regarding the wells; Tingley wanted to have them altered about the capacity, but Mr. Gas tilion refused; Mr. Tingley said that that Was when lie had not had. moral courage enough to resist Mr. Castillon, because Mr. Castillon 'furnished the capital; this conversation took place the day after the meeting of the stockholders in July, MS; Ting ley also sad that he was willing to give up all he had made out of the Company, some $B,OOO, to re ceive a discharge from all the parties.

BoLLEs+), ELECTRICAL INSTITUTE, No. 1220 WALNUT - Street, For the Treatment of Acute and Chronic Dimeases Electrical investigation has proved that the hu man body acts on the principal ,of the galvanic bat tery. The brain, mucous and serous membranes, the skin, tissues, and fluids constitute the negative and positive forces. Every action, whether ' mental or physical, is the result of these antagonistieforees. Digestion, respiration, circulation, secretion and. excretion are due solely to Electrical Influence. There is a polar action established throughout the nervous system which, connects with every part of the body, establialang ? And preserving R proper balance of the eleetticabelement, which constitutes health, and a disturbanee of which causes disease. There arc strictly but two conditions of disease— one of inflammation, Or positive; the oilier week, debilitated, negative; and as Electricity contains these two conditions in the action of the positive and negative currents, all we have to do is to neu tralize the disease and restore proper healthy action. We do not wish to convey the Impression that we cure all diseases in all conditions. We cannot cure consumption after the lungs are all destroyed; yet we do assert, and are prepared to practically demon. strate, that hundreds of cases of almost every form Of chronie diseases, pronounced incurable by the best medical practitioners of the country, havebeen radically CURED, some of them in an incredibly short time, by our Electrical treatment.. Its great superiority over other practice in the cure of dis ease is also attested in the fact that, within the past live years, over fourteen thoneand 'patients have been treated at this office, suffering from almost every form and condition of disease common to humanity, and in nearly all cases a benefit or per. feet cure has been effected. Palsy, deafness, blind ness,u rheumatism, dyspepsia, cancer, and all the old knotty diseases that are a physician's curse, as It proves his inability to eradicate, are by Our scion tille method comparatively easy of cure. Specimens of tumors of large growth extracted by means of Electricity alone, without pain, without the Use of the knife, ligatures, or any other means, may be seen at our office by those interested. Therefore, With these FACTS to prove our theory and treat ment of disease, we are Trilling to undertake any of the following diseases, with every hope and pros pect of success, with very many others not here enumerated: 1. Diseases of the Brain and Nervous h' y steal.— Epilepsy, Chorea, or St. Vitae' Dance, Paralysis (Ilemplegia), Neuralgia, Hysteria, Nervousness, Palpitation of the Heart, Lockjaw. etc. 2. Organs and Tissues connected with the Diges tive System. —Sore Throat, Dyspepsia, Diarrhea, Dysentery, Obstinate Constipation, Haemorrhoides, or Piles, Bilious Flatulent, and Painter's Colic, and all affections of the Liver and Spleen. S. Respiratory Organs. —Catarrb, Cough, Inoii enza, Asthma (when not caused by organic disease of the heart), Bronchitis, Pleurisy, Pleurodynia, or Rheumatism of the Chest, Consumption In the early stages. 4. Fibrous and Muscuiar System. —Rheumatism, Gout, Lumbago, Stiff Neck, Spinal Curvature. HIP Diseases, Cancers, Tumors. 5, Urinary TO Genital Organs. —Gravel, Diabetes, and 'Kidney CoMplaints, impotence, and Seminal Weakness. The latter colnplaintsneverfail to yield rapidly idl ilis t = B .Wera e r nt t; Females. —Uterus Com plaints, involving a mal-position, asProlapsus, An troyersion, RetroVersion.lnflammation t Ulcera tion, and various ether affections of the W omb and Ovaries, Painful, Suppressed, Scanty, or Profuse Menstruation, Leueorrhtea. TO LADIES we can recornend this treatment as one of UNVARIED SUCCESS. Almost innume rable Cases have come under treatment at our office who can testify to this fact. Mrs. BECKWITH has entire charge of the Ladies' Department, and all delicacy will be used towards those who entrust themselves to her care. In female diseases as men tioned in the above list, with others not mentioned, she has had a large experienite nd east Confidently promise the most gtatifying rtLuits. TO THE AFFLICTED.—The treatment is mild and gentle, producing no shock or unpleasant sen sation whatever. Our professional Intercourse with the atnicted will ever be characterized by perfect candor and honesty, and those whose complaints are incurable, or do not admit of amelioration, will be frankly told so and not accepted for treat ment. It matters not what may be your complaint, or how long you may have suffered, or how much, or what course of treatment you may have been subjected 'to, or what disappointments you may have experienced, if the system is not worn ont—if sufficient vitality remains for reaction—there Is a fair_proapect of recovery.
