Hot weather is at hand; and unless proper care
is taken to prevent the deposit of filth in the
city, sickness must ensue.]
Julia Wilson, drank and disorderly, was
sent to prison for 48 hours. Julia had a muss
with the police who arrested her, and pitched
into them in a. manner that was calculated to
put to flight anybody') but a city "star."
Thomas. Hopkins, drunk and disorderly,

Thomas Beeshan, J. T. Dolan, Jas. Hodge
and Rah Eastwood, drunks and disorder
lies, wore handsel. over to the Provost Mar

John B. Meaa:s and Isaac Sell, charged with
conspiracy to defraud :Capt. Beichenbach,
were committed for a further hearing.
A Gamma. 11.01JSE UN-TIRNED.—The Phila
delphia North, American gives the following :
One of the ghastliest sights that the eye
could rest upon is to, be seen in Carpenter
street, between Eleventh and Twelfth. Many
yearS ago, before the pauper dead were inter
red in the sabu.rbs of the Twenty-ibtirth ward,
the Potter's field of Philadelphia was a lot of
ground bound by Eleventh and Twelfth, Car
penter and Washington streets. The place
was filled:with bodies in a short time by the
last visitation of cholera upon the city- Up
to that time only paupers were interred in this
ground ' • but when the mortality by cholera
became frightful, and grave diggers were en
gaged in interring only the wealthiest of, the
people, there were scores of bodies laid in the
public burial ground whose relatives,probably.
under other circumstances, would have been
horrified atilhe ,
The end of the la - 1Q was first filled is
mow being excavated for building purposes.
Three cellars have been dug to the depth of
seven feet, the whole course o which:was cut
through . masses of Coffins With - their ghastly
contents. The should have been done
in winter time, for a foul, sickening stench
arises from the remains that infects the sur
rounding atmosphere. So repulsive is the
digger's task that very high Wages are exacted
for - pefforming it, and most of those who were
applied to to perform it peremptorily declined.
There is a tavern building upon the site of
, the field, whose oyster was compelled to exca
vate his own cellar. Not a man could be
found who would undertake the work.
.
Many, of the bodies disinterred were in 're
markable' preservation. We saw. a coffin
Opened there the other day, containing the
, body'of a iionatm so iiatiiittlin appearance as
to cause an involuntary exclamation from
those gathered, aid it. There were no
other cerements upon it than a single under
garment, probably . vrn.4uring the last sick
ness. There was - ire.' Mold - upon it; and on
it in indelible ink, was yet legible a female
Strange to say, a jar of the .coffin by one of
the rude laborers shook into impalpable pow
der—eausing to disappear like a dissolving
view, what five minuteabefare looked like a
slumbering being. The coffin in which this
was contained was of walnut, singularly sound
and clean. People who saw it pronounce
`that the dead body must have been a victim
to cholera, hastily inte'rred, for it was in the
'centre of many others, made rudely of un
planed pine, that the coffin was exhumed.
Case after case of skulls, skeletons and
bones have been hauled away, and cart-loads
of broken coffins have been appropriated for
_fuel by the poor people of the neighborhood.
In the sides of the cellars may be seen the
.tiers of coffins, .and deep as has been dug the
bottom tier has not been reached. The lot,
extending nearly from- Eleventh to Twelfth
street, is said to be equally full of human re
x
.s. Some boys whom _we watched yester
scraped the soil from - a. coffin-lid in the
bottom of one of the eellulrs, and taking out
the skull used it as a ball. The sight is not
pleasant. The odor is fetid. People living
opposite will be only tpp glad when the work
of ; exhumation ,is completed.

From the Richmond lac - miner, ikty 181
We stated yesterday that Major White, the
Pennsylvania State Senator, had escaped from
the Libby with Conolel Streight. This was a
misapprehension of the facts. He is now in
the Salisbury Confederate States penitentiary.
-He is informed that his brother, Colonel
White, of Pennsylvania, one of the prisoners
taken in the battle of the Bluff,, tins been
registered at the Hotel de Libby; and is anx
ious for an interview with him.
We have reports from several private let
ters that Colonel Dick White was killed in
battle, his body having been pierced by seven
bullets. We hope that the rebel news may
prove correct, and that the brothers White
may soon be exchanged. .

THE INLAND TELEGRAPH COMPANY.
The wires of the Inland Telegraph Company
are once more placed' at the control of the
managers by order of the Government, and
business will to-day be resumed on all the
line, and messages again forwarded with the
dispatch and faithfulness which have hereto
fore characterized the transactions of this
company. In making this announcement the
managers deem it due to themselves, as well
as to the Government., that they should state
that the restrictions lately placed upon them
were dictated'by what wag believedat the time
to be a consideration of public safety. It was
the conviction of this necessity that induced
the managers to rest quietly until the odium
thus created could be removed. They wore
unwilling, while the arrest .of their operators
continued, to say a word, fearful that,the agi
tation of the transaction might impair the im
partiality of the Government, and. do it injus
tice at: an hour when Its reputation should
appear unsullied before the world; but the
time has now arrived when the facts of
the case can be safely laid before the public,
and the full vindication of the . Inland Tele
graph Company made known for the gratifica
tion of its friends and the confusion of its
enemies. •
There is nOw no doubt in the public mind
that the GovernMent was greatly imposed
upon, and induced to interfere to close up the
Inland Telegraph Office through information
famished by individuals who were the jealous
rivals and bitter opponents of said coin
pally. The Government itself seems to I
have suspicions of this fact by the no
ble manner in which those in authority
now seek to repair an unintentional injury, in
the recognition; of those prominent in the
control of this line.
Hereafter, the Inland Telegraph company,
as heretofore, will devote itself sednously to
the service of the public, and in doing.this
the company will never forget that they .owe
a paramount duty. in contributing to the suc
cess of the government. Profoundly impressed
with the peril which surrounds that govern
mentand deeply„sympathizing with its efforts
to, re-establish its , arithority andearrYPeane
to all the States, this company feel, that it
would be better. to have their wifes melted
and their batterisie.destiOyed thetn, th:nit. one
werd 7.- should , Me transmitted . by then.to the
embarrassment of the national cause. Our
hope of success as business men is centred in
the complete success of the Government. By
this hope we have been gpided in the past,
and by it we are determined to be controlled
in_ 'the future:. ,
. .
With this explanation the managers of the
Inland Telegraph Company solicit a renewal
of the immense • patronage temporarily in
terrupted by the action of the Govern':
merit to ditcover the
who
of '° a
base fraud • perpetrators who had no con
nection with the business of this line, either
as employees in its service, or patrons seek
ing its conveniences.
