The Lease of the Philadelphia and
Erie Railroad Company
tion for an Injunction to .Restrain
the Execution'of the Contract.
Tho Supreme Churl of Pennsylvania held a
special session this forenoon, and heard an ar
gument in the ease of Grata vs. The Pennsyl
vania Railroad Company, and Philadelphia
and Erie Railroad Company, being an appli
cation for an injunction to restrain Dr nullify
tbe contraet abont to be entered into between
the respective coqiorajions mentioned. The
case wes argued by Mr. Hirst fnccomplain-'
ent, and by St. Goorge Campbell for respond
- ents, whereupon tho Bill in Equity, was filed
and a motion made for n'prelimtnary injunc
tion.
The Bill mU forth that tho complainant is
Stockholder rtf the Philadelphia and Erie
Railroad Company, and of the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company; that by virtue of resolu
tions, of the Boards of Directors, anil by a voto
of a majority of theStoekholders, the said cor
porations are about,to enter into contracts by
means of which the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company is about to purchase the rolling
stock of the Philadelphia and Erie Railroad
Company, to buy or to contract to buy, tho
mortgage bonds, and accept a lease of the
road of Mid Philadelphia and-Erie Railroad
Company. And further that the act of March
7th> 1861, by virtue whereof, ih part, the
.authority to make said contracts is claimed,
is unconstitutional and void, and the mort
-1 gage of $7,000,000 therein referred to still re
• mains a valid lien on the said road and prem
ises therein mentioned, although the bonds
. may have been delivered to tho Common
wealth and the said'mortgages satisfied of
record. That the bonds, ao proposed to be
. purchased, arenot the first lien on nny part
of the Philadelphia and Erie Railroad Com
pany j but, If valid at all, are anbseqnent in
Ben to the bonds secured by said mortgage
■fc| r 'sfyM)D,flOo. That the Philadelphia and
Erie RailTodd:Company cannot lawfully ac
cept and receive, under the said acts, from
the State Treasurer, the bonds purporting to
be.secured by paid mortgage. That the road
of the Philadelphia and Erie Company isun
finished, and not a sufficient security for said
$7,000,000, and* the earne rs- or may be subject
to a prior lien of $OOO,OOO, as provided by act
or loth April, 1860. That the contracts In
tended to bo executed by defendants, are
unlawful'and void, in violation of their
charters, and- injurious to the rights
and interests of the complainant. That
the said corporators, if not prevented* by
* injunction, will act upon said contracts as
- “ though they trero binding, to the prejudice of
the complainant, and that the; bonds of the
Philadelphia and Erie Railroad Company, so
purposed to be purchased by the Pennsylvania
—Railroad Company, will be comparatively, if
not jrholly, valueless.
_ The complainant therefore desires the aid or
a Court of Equity, that said contract may be
decreed inoperative and roid, and that the
- " same may be delivered up and canceled ; that
a special injunction until hearing, and a per--
, petual injunction thereafter, be issued, re
. straining tho execution of said contracts.
an injunction bo issued against the
Philadelphia and Erie Railroad Company, re
straining them from receiving from the State
Treasurer the bonds purporting to be secured
by said mortgage dated the 30th March, 1861.
The defendants reply In substance as fol
. loirs
John-Edgar Thompson, President of the
.Pennsylvania Railroad Company, affirms that
ihecomplainant holds but three shares In said
. company; that the corporation defendants do
inton'd- to execato and carry into effect the
measures proposed in the bill of sale, lease
and-contract,' that such arrangements will
prove beneficial to the stockholders of both
' r corporations, and to the-Commonwealth, by
, erenring the completion of the Philadelphia
and Erie Railroad. That the papers have
I liot yet bttn executed,And that their execu-
I lion will depend until the judgment of the
Court shall be pronounced. That the whole
-matter was submitted to the Stockholders of
" the Pennsylvania Railroad-Company, and the
:vote in; favor thereof was 135,622 shares,
: against it 2,374 shares. r
1 G. MoorbeadTProsidcnt of the Phila
delphia and Erie Railroad, also testifies that
the contract was ratified by the Stockholders
of said company, and entered into became it
was deemed beneficial to the interests of both
= parties.
After the argument Court adjourned, and
the Judges met for consultation.
The Belief Food Exhaueted--Ex
citemcntat the Commissioners’
Office.
The fond fur the relief of the families of
volunteers is now exhausted, and the sub
committees iif several of the ward 3 were
obliged to-day to send the applicants away
empty-handed. As a consequence, a large
crowd of women soon assembled at the Com
jnissioners' ofpee, and demanded bread, or the
means to boy. it. They were sent to the
- " Treasurer's officer-being told that the du
. plica tea were there, and that it was the Trcas
urcr’s duty to collect themoney. TboClerk
in the Treasurer's office gave them a' brief
- etatement of the' actual condition of affairs,
and - they left, perfectly satisfied that the'
blame was not there. ( .
. ‘‘'Being present when the women thronged
the Treasurer’s office, we may just state for
?übito: information what transpired there.
he woman desired to know why it was that
the Treasurer did not collect the tax ? * To
this the Clerk replied that the Treasurer eould
not collect the tax, as the Commissioners hod

two days after tho’timo for riving legal notice
had expired—hence he could not compel pay.
uent. The Treasurer, furthermore, never

were pitched into the office, a* it were, by the
. h’omnmxloners, after they had failed or re
fused to collect the tax by collectors, and did
not come to the Treasurer through the Con
" troller, as required by law. This was an ad
ditional: reason why the Treasurer.could not
become responsible for the tax.
: ' All this was listened to very attentively-*

The Horrora or totem)
Child Killed with^fifakV.
a Saturday night, about eleven o'clock,
Coroner Boetwick was celled to hold an in
qneet upon the bod, of a child named John
McKenna, aged five years.who bad been fonnd
dead in the eecond ator, of hie father’* hooae,
_on Libert, atreet, oppoiitc Wesley Chapel, in
the Fifth Ward- When the Coruner entered
the Ilonae, he found the father, Patrick Mc-
Kenntf, lying dead drunk, while the mother
tfaa aitting in a drunken atupor, over a pool
of blood, having cut or wounded herself in
some way. The little corps was lying on a
bed, and altogether the scene was such as on
ly the drunkard’s home can present.
IN SON IN SHADE.
- 00 36
00 40
The wretched parents of the lad were con
voyed to the lock J up, and the inquest was
postponed until Sandfly, when a jury was
emp&nneled and a number of witnesses exam*
atmned. It appears that both parents of the
child had been drinking during Saturday af*
ternoon,and at live o'clock in the evening little
.1 ohnny was found up stairs, by his mother,
quite cold, and almost lifeless. She raised an
alarm, which attracted some or the neigh
bors, bnt assistance came too late, and the
child died while efforts were being iziado to
resuscitate him. A quart bottle, containing
but gill or two of whisky, was found iu the
house, and it is supposed that they had drank
the full of. the bottle, with the exception of
what little remained. The mother stated that
her boy was as well os usual on Saturday;
that soon after dinner he went up stairs and
laid down ; that she went up once tosee him,
and found him asleep ; and at five o’clock,
when she went to wake him up, she was
horrified to find him cold nnddying. She sta
ted also that her husband!did not get so
drunk until after the child died.
Dr. Kern .was examined, and testiGed that
the child dieiTTn convulsions, sriperinduced by
alcoholic stimulant. There was no evidence
that the “poison" had been administered by ’
the parents, and it ia possible (nlthoug not
probable) that the child may have got access
to the bottle without their knowledge. They
were discharged from custody, the jury sim
ply finding a verdict that death resulted from
the cause indicated. Although no legal crime
may attach to these wretched parents, a fear
ful moral guilt rests upon them, and the
tragical occurrence should, prove a salutary
fvarniog’ to them and others who tamper with,
the damning poison.
We understand that the wardi having two
election precincts claim the right to elect five
delegates from each preeinot to the approach
ing City Convention. The call of the City
Committee distinctly states that only fire
delegates are to bo elected from each ward.
This is in conformity with the general usage
of the party in municipal Convention, and a
custom that cannot be altered by the Kxecu
tive Committee. They only have power to
call a Convention according to the usages 1 »f
the Republican party. The only power that
can alter the number of delegates from each
ward is the Convention of representatives from
the jraople. Until this is done by tbeConven
tion, the old rule will have to be adhered to.
Any ward electing more than Jiw delegates
will not be conforming to the call of the City
Executive Committee, and-therefore their
representatives will not be entitled to seats iu
the Convention under the call. The Execu
tive Committee has very properly requested
the wards having two precincts to elect the
larger number of delegates from the precinct
having the largest population. This has been
done to prevent any difficulty, and should be
adhered to. When the Convention shall have
assembled, then the words having two election
precincts can have the question of the number
of delegates definitely fixed for the future,.
Another Lecture from Mr. Gough.
Hundreds of our readers will be pleased to
learn that Mr. J. B. Gough will deliver anoth
er lecture at Concert Hall, this evening. He
was greeted on Saturday night hr an over
flowing audience, and presented such facts,
anecdotes and illustrations, in his own pecu
liar style of eloquence, as rendered the old
subject of Temperance novel and interesting in
the highest degree. Indeed, he remarked that
it was not until he had delivered twenty yev
en lectures on this prolific theme, that he be
gan to feel.that he had about exhausted his
knowledge of the subject! This being the
ease, no one need apprehend hearing the
same thing twice in a course of only two lec
tures. As tthe entrance to the hall will he
densely thronged aft soon as the doors are
.thrown open, mnch trouble will be sav
ed by procuring tickets during the day at the
book and mnsio stores.
A Pennsylvania Soldier Shot
Private Sybil, in Capt. Rodier’s company,
District volunteers, was shot at Washington,
on Friday night last. He was in his camp
asleep, when a private, in liquor, a real Bal
morc Plug-ugly, was brought into the camp
in irons. He, however, got hie hands
through-tho handcuffs, and commenced pulling
bricks out of the fire place and throwing theta
violently at the guard. Presently he seized
a masked and aimed it at Lieut. Colonel Tow
ers, who escaped the charge, which was lodg.
ed in the thigh-of Private Sybil, then lying
asleep. The limb was horribly mangled and
cannot be saved, and the recovery of the man
is T6ry doubtful. Sybil is from Altoona, Blair
county, where he has a wife, to whom, a few
days ago, he sent twenty-fivo dollars, out of
twenty-six dollars received as his dues up to
Ist of November.
Thk Rebel Cankos Captured bt Colonel
Geary. —At the late meeting of the Philadel
phia Council, the following was read and re
ferred to the Defense Committee:
“That whereas daring the late engagement
between tbo 28th Regiment Pennsylvania
Volunteers, Col. Geary, and the rebels, at
Bolivar, a 32-pound Columbiad was captured
from the rebels, and . learning that the
said cannon is not needed by-the regi
ment, being too heavy for 6eld move
ments, and understanding that.Col.Geary was
desirous of presenting the cannon to the city
of Philadelphia, therefore resolved, that the
Committee on the Defense and Protection of
the City be requested to correspond wjth Col.
Geary and Secretary Cameron on the sabjdct
of transferring the cannon to Philadelphia 4to
nerve as a memorial of the gallantry of .Penn
sylvania soldiers.

lamation of Governor Curtin. Special set
in „ ,he - C “ l ' ,,jlic ch ""VeU.g Of .he Rebel Congre,,-
and the Rfght Rer. AlontoTotter. j eH . DaTin . K Meaaage
Bishop of the Diocese of Pennsylvania, ha.
issued an address to the clergy and congrega-*
tions of the Diocese, in reference to the proper
observance of the day. The Bishop, »
bft address, says that the church provides a
special service for such occasions, and the
feelings of every pions heart will prompt to
iU observance. Though involved in a san-
I gninary civil conflict, its wWat horrors and
! calamities have been kept frodumr own bor
ders. We have been spared the ravages of
pestilential disease. Our barns are filled with
plenty ; we have to thank the Giver of every
good and perfect gift, that within the bounds
of thi3 Commonwealth we live in unity and
concord, and that our people, in order to
maintain unimpaired the Union bequeathed
to us by our fathers, are ready for every sac
rifice. Let us, then, assemble in onr respec
tive places of worship, in obedience to this
-call of the civil and ecclesiastical authority,
and offer up united prayers and praises to the
Sovereign Dispenser of all our blessings.
The address concludes with an earnest appeal
in behalf of the poor. As collections will be
taken up in most of onr churches on that day,
for the relief of the needy, those who have
prospered through the year, cannot observe
the occasion properly without “ takiog a
thank-offering with them.”
A Fatal Mistake.— A little boy named
Kryder, whose parents resido near Bridge
port, on the Ohio river, was shot through the
head on Friday evening last, by a man named
