FRORMOtts BentßeSS son ONZ NEW Yosa MERCHANT.—
We are happy to inform our fel ow citizens that mere is
one place in our city where the physician, apothecary,
and country merchant, can go and purchase pure Wines
and Liquors, as pure as imported, and of the best quality:
We do not intend to give an elaborate description of this
merchant's extensive lansluess, although it will well re•
pay soy stranger or citizen to visit Udoipho Wolfe's es
tetsive Warehouse, Nos. le. to end 22 Beaver street,
and Nos. 17. 19 and 21, gar:. etdeld street His stock of
Schnapps on hand ready for shipment could not have
been less than thirty thew - And cases; the Brandy, some
ten thousand cases—Viutages of /836 to 18513 ; and tor/,
thousand cases of Madeira, Sherry and Fort Wine,,,
Scotch and Irish Whisky, Jamaica and St. Croix Them,
some very old and equal to any In this country, BO alio
had throe large cellars, filled with Brandy, Wine, aro., in
casks, under Custom/bus() key, ready for bottling, Mr.
Wolfe's sales of bchnapps last year amounted to one
hundred and eighty thorium& (=en, and we hops in less
than two years he may be equally successful with Ida
&Indies and Wines.
His business merits the patronage of every les or of his
species. Private families who wish pure Wines and
Liquors for medical use should send their orders direct
to Mr. Weife, until every Apothecary in the land matte
up their miuda to discard the poisonous stuff from their
shelves, and replace It with Wolfe's pure Warm and
[woes.
Wo undcritand Mr. Wolfe, fur the accommodation or
small dealers in 'the country, cats up assorted cases of
Wines and Liquors. Such a man, and such a merchant,
Mould be sustained ag In,/ his tens of thcnsands of op.
consuls in the United Staten, who sell nothing but hnita

mitted the general orders of Major General Wil
liam H. Heim, commanding officer of the day,

ORIGINAL RESOLUTION
Mr, IIIBRIE offered the follbwingresolutiou
"That hereafter when the consideration of
bills is in order, that the names of Senators
shall be called in alphabetical order."
The resolution being twice read,
Mr. WELSH said, I think that the resolution
which has been adopted for several years past
is the proper one to adopt in this case. Ido
not think that the one proposed covers sufficient
ground. It might be understood that the rule
should be called and gone through with, every
day, and that no Senator shall be •allowed to
call .up a bill, out of his proper place.
Mr. DOME. If there is a resolution on the
Journal to that effect, I withdraw my resolu
tion.
ORDERS OF THE DAY
The bill entitled " a supplement to an Act
erecting pttrts of Clinton, Elk, McKean and
Potter counties into a county to be called
Cameron" came up in order, on second reading.
Mr. BLOOD. I move that the sections of the
bill be read by their numbers until the twenty
second, 'which is the last, to which I have an
amendment to propose.
The Senate then agreed to the sections, as in
dicated and the twenty second having been ar
rived at, it was read.
Mr. BLOOD. I move to amend the section
by adding in the seventeenth line, after the
words, "said office," the words, "to the next
general election after said appointment."
The amendment was agreed to.
Mr. BLOOD. Before a vote is taken on this
section, I will make a statement in compliance
with the desire of the gentlemen who are here
asking that this section may be defeated. It
was stated, yesterday, by the Senator from Pot
ter (Mr. Bmsox) that these Commissioners bad
refused to act. sow, sir, in the first section of
the Act erecting Cameron country-, Llic boundary -
Commissioners are required in that Act to serve
a notice or furnish a plot of the county to the
County Commissioners, as soon as the said offi
cers are elected. The Commissioners of this
county never received such a notice from the
Boundary Commissioners until the 28th day of
January, three weeks after the time that the no
tice had been given for holding Court, conse
quently, they had no power to act. They wish
me to state further that when this bill erecting
the county was passed, the persons asking for
its passage, pledged themselves to put up the
public buildings without any expense to the citi
zens of the county, as also did the citizens re
siding in the lower part of the county pledge
themselves to put up buildings without expense
to the inhabitants of the county generally, if
sach buildings were erected in the locality which
they desired. I hope that the Senate will vote
down this section.
Mr. BENSON. I have but one word to say
in reply to the gentleman from Jefferson. This
section provides that if either of the commis
raises of said county of Cameron shall refuse,
or neglect to perform any duty required by
law to be performed, it shall be lawful for the
Court of said county to grant a rule upon the
said Commissioners. When the Court met,
some weeks ago, two of these Commis
sioners—l am not certain whether two
or one—failed to act at all or perform the
duties of their office. This section simply pro
vides--and it ought to be a general law
throughout the State, because its provisions are
always proper in such cases—that if these gen
tlemen still refuse to act, after the Court has
served a rule upon them, fixing a time when
they shall be heard, they shall be discharged
from further performing the duties of Commis
sioners of said county. Without this section
being adopted, these Commissioners may pre
vent the transaction of any business by the
Court for one or two years. It is the only rem
edy for the present, condition of affairs that we
can obtain. The matter of the location of the
county seat has nothing to do with this ; the
question now being whether that county can
be organized or whether two men who suffered
themselves to run as candidates for the office of
Commissioner in that county, and who can
vassed it, shall say to the people that they will
thwart their efforts and prevent any organiza
tion being effected or business being done
there.
On the question,
Will the Senate agree to the section?
The yeas and nays were required by Mr.
BLOOD and Mr. BENSON, and were as fol
lows, viz : •
Yw—Messrs. Benson, Boughter, Bound,
Connell, Fuller, Hall, Hamilton, Imbrle, Irish,
Ketcham, Landon, Meredith, Parker, Penney,
Robinson, Serrill, Smith, Thompson, Wharton
and Palmer, Speaker-20.
Nays—Messrs. Blood, Clymer, Crawford,
Gregg, Mott, Schindel and Welsh-7.
So the question was determined in the affirm
ative.
And the question recurring,
Will the Senate agree to the final passage of
the bill ?
The yeas and nays were required by Mr
BLOOD and Mr. BENSON, and were as follows:

Yses--Messrs. Benson, Boughter, Bound,

Landon, Lawrence, Parker, Robinson, Serrill,
Smith, Thompson, Wharton, and Palmer,
Speaker-18.
Nays--Blood, Clymer, Crawford, Gregg,
Mott, Schindel and Welsh-7.
So the question was determined in the af
filmative and the bill passed.
Senate bill No. 14, entitled "a further sup
plement to an Act to incorporate the city of
Philadelphia," came up in order on second
reading.
The first section was read and agreed to.
The second section being before the Senate,
Mr. WELSH said : I believe this to be a very
extraordinary provision—that we shall extend
the time of the terms of officers of Philadelph*
who have been elected by the people. I would
like to hear from the Senator from Philadelphia
in regard to the meaning of this section, and
whether any of his constituents have petitioned
us for its adoption. It strikes me that this is the
most extraordinary section which could be pre
sented in any bill.
Mr. SMITH. In preparing this bill, it was
preferred to lengthen the terms of certain offi
cers for six months, rather than to shorten them
for the same period. It would have been an
Act of most manifest irtjustioe to have their
terms shortened to less than that for which they
were elected. In order to have this bill carried
into effect, we must either take off or add to
their term of office a period of six months.
As to whether my constituents have asked for
the bill or not, I presume they will not ask the
Senator from York to be responsible for my ac
tion.
Mr. WELSH. In order to shoe the opinions
entertained by the mayor of Philadelphia on
this subject, I request that a copy of a letter
written by that officer in relation to this sub
ject, should be read.
The letter was then forwarded to the Clerk,
and it was read.
Mr. SMITH. I will state that this letter was
originated in consequence of a conversation
held by the Mayor, in the presence of two or
three gentlemen, in relation to this bill, in
which he asked that I would have the bill post
ponethintil- he might have an opportunity of
reading it. He had then no hostility to it, and
I had not the slightest ido of an opposition be
ing made to it by him. I will state, however,
that in a recent message to City Councils he
stated that he was opposed to the passage of the
bill last year in relation to the change in the
police system. He was the author of the bill of
last year, and ho was the author of the bill of
this year. I wish that Mayor Henry should be
placed in the right position. For the truth of
what I have asserted I appeal to ray colleagues
who know the fact.
Mr. CLYMER. The way in which the letter
of the Mayor of Philadelphia has come before
this Senate is this : The Mayor was written to
by a member of the House of Representatives in
order to ascertain his views in regard to this
bill. He said in his reply that he therewith
transmitted a copy of a letter addressed by him
self to George R. Smith, Esq., of the Senate, in
which his views were specially set forth in rela
tion to the subject at issue. Injustice may be
done tothe Mayor of thecity, by the presentation
of the letter at this time, but it was done with
a view to inform this Senate in regard to the
sentiments entertained by the Chief Officer of
the city in regard to the bill.
Mr. SMITH. I repeat that in his message to
Councils within the last ten days the Mayor
has justified Gov. Packer in vetoing our police
bill of last year and yet. I know, and my col
leagues know, that the Mayor was the author
of that bill.
On the question,
"Will the Senate agree to the section

N.crs—Messrs. Blood, Clymer, Crawford,
Mott, Schindel and Welsh-6.
So the question was determined in the affir
mative.
The third, fourth, fifth and sixth sections
were then read and agreed to.
The seventh Action having been read,
Mr. SMITH proposed an amendment to the
same.
To strike out section seven and insert in lieu
thereof a new section, as follows:
SECTION 7. That Aldermen in and for the said
city of Philadelphia, in the place of those whose
commissions will expire previous to the time of
holding the general election in October of the
present year, and also of those whose commis
sions will expire in the year 1862, respectively,
shall be elected at the time of holding the
general election, on the second Tuesday of Oc
tober, 1861 ; and thereafter the election for
Aldermen shall take place on the second Tues
day of October, annually, to fill the place of
those whose commissions will expire previous
to the next succeeding general election ; com
missions to be issued to the said Aldermen,
under existing laws, as to such as shall be
elected, in place of those whose commissions
had expired at the time of the election in the
present year ; and as to such as shall be elected
in the place of those whose commissions expire
before the then next succeding October election,
so as to take effect at the expiration of the re
spective commissions so terminating, until the
year 1864 ; and thereafter, on the first day of
January succeeding the election.
The amendment was agreed to.
The question then being
