come thoroughly acquainted with their
dispositions, and to check in time any die
position to 'mischievous or criminal acts
of which they may be guilty. Oar city is
cursed by a set of boys, some of whom are
large enough, and old enough to be called
young men, and much of the crime that is
being committed is laid to their door. A
boy has been arrested in the act of firing
a Wilding; another with his cronies knock
down a merchant from a neighboring town
at midnight, and after abusing him in a
shameful manner, and cutting him with a
knife, they rob him of his money. Cir
cumstances point out boys as the perpe.
trators of the Wood street robberies, and
also of Magrai's tobacco Store. Will
parents, when their sons are arrested, put
in the plea that they did not know where
they were? It is the duty of every parent
to know where their children are after
dark. Some of these boys will be arrest
entled, and through the interposition of infin•
ial parents, will escape, but will not
that escape only lead to the perpetration
of some new crime? To shield a child from

hardened offenders, for when he comes
from such a school as that, he will have
learned more, much more than he could
have learned elsewhere; besides he will
come forth feeling disgraced, and will har
bor feelings of vindictiveness against his
fellow man. We do not believe that the
jail is the proper place to correct an evil ;
it will do for punishment, but the man has
yet to be born who was ever cured of crime
by putting him in jail. He becomes more
cautions, more wary, and is consequently
not so easily detected. Le', them have
good principles instilled in their yonth•
fal minds; let them know that they
may grow up to be useful men, and
they have some incentive to ambition.
We have said, and can say but little in re•

cause him or her to think of the future of
their child, and how far they may be re

world, bat in the world to come. We are
told by one of our Aldermen, that in some
instances parties are afraid to enter com
plaints, or have offenders arrested, on ac
count of heir oxnracles having sworn ven•
geance against a:/y one who should do so.
Have we not come to a pretty pass, when
a man must be knocked down, beaten, in
sulted, oz Ins house robbed by these fel

A Most Important Arrest ---One
of the Late Incendiaries In
Limbo.
On Thursday evening officer Murray dt
tented a boy about Iti years of age, with a
lighted match in the act of setting fire to
the stable of Larry Lewis. near the Point.
He immediately arrested him, and upon
his person was found a quantity of matches.
A moment later and the stable would have
been in flames. The name of the boy is
James Cauley, and he .18 supposed to be
one of the gang, who, of late have caused
such destructive fires, whereby a large
quantity of oil, besides a vast amount
of valuable property has been destroyed,
by which the pity has been placed in most
imminent danger. He is a very bad boy.
and on a previous occasion, a man swore
his life against him. Taking his youth
and other matters into consideration, the
Mayor came to the conclusion that the
boy would be infinitely more benefitted
by sending him to the House of Refuge
than to prison, and his parents were sent
for and requested to make the requisite
information. He was sent down in charge
of officer Murray yesterday afternoon, his
mother accompanying him.
he Discharged Soldiers to be
Drafted.
!deny people believe that all men who
have been in the service during the pres
ent war, and who have been honorably
discharged will be exempt from the ap
proaching conscription. But the following,
from a late ollioial document, issued by
the Provost Marshal _General, shows that
all who were discharged before the 2d of
March, 1863, are liable to be drafted :
"Volunteers or regulars who have been
in the service, and who have been dis
charged therefrom, or had resigned prior
to the 2d day of March, 1863, are liable to
be drafted in the same manner as if they
had never been in the service. No regard
is to be paid to their former period of ser
vice, or to the length and brevity of the
period between the date of their discharge
and that of the draft."
Thix, is very clear and emphatic. A man
who has served out his time as a three'
months' man, and served afterwards up to
the Ist of March, if discharged before the
2d, is liable to be drafted, just as though
he had never served in the army a day.
The Laws of Nuisance.
It would be well for those who are in
the habit of making deposits of filth and
rubbish upon the wharves to egatnine the
ordinance passed ty Councils upon the
subject, and thereby save themselves
trouble and cost. We have been several
times requested to call attention to this
matter by the Wherfmaster, but we leatn
that there is no necessity for so doing, as
it is presumed that persons who are in the
,habit of of f ending are unacquainted with
the law, and any policeman who can ferret
out the guilty parties, has the power to
arrest and bring them to punishment. We
give this information in order that they
may be saved trouble and expense.

Concert at Braddock's Fields
We had the pleasure of being present
at a Concert given at Braddock's Fields
Nat evening. under the leadings of Prof.
Herrmann. The Professor is we of ll known to
the commnifity as being one the first
musical directors in the city, and under
his control the Concert was a decided
success. The singers, especially the Alias
es Smith. and Mr. Conough, gave the ati
dienoe ample evidence of their - proficien 2y
in vocal science. The whole affair passed
off very agreeably, and would we are sure
bear repetition. The Concert was given
for the purpose of defraying the expenses
attendant on the erection of St. Thomas
Catholic Church. The Church is a neat
little eclipse,
erected by the residents of
Braddock's Fields, &A situated in the
central part of the village. We sincerely
hope theremaining debt will 80011 be en
tirely liquidated, as none can contribute
to a more praiseworthy object than the
lending a help'tig hand to the advance
ment of religion.
More or the Same Sort.
It will be remembered that when the
seoesh prisoners were here, two men were
thrust into the cars, and sent off w;th them
for cheering for Jeff. Davis, and other
wise showing their sympathy for secessia.
When the cars arrived at Philadelphia
three more. sympathisers were served in
the same manner, and the happy five
were taken to Fort Delaware. A private
letter from there states that the prlsoners
did not allow their involuntary
kept them any rest the first night,but kept them
up, in order to make sport of them. The
fellows were heartily sick of their quarters
by morning.
Personal.
Capt. W. P. Craighill, of the Engineer

ed with his department during any absence
of Gen. Barnard's.

Volunteer enlistments are daily being
taken by Captain. Wright and his assist
ants at the office of the Provost Guard,

cruits were mustered into service and sent I
off to join a regiment.
The Sculling Match.
The sculling match between James

One old fellow yesterday remarked that
in ten days, pasturage would be so good
that he could sell butter for nothing end

At present it looks like more rain.

Restating the Enrollment,
On Thursday during the rota& of the
enrolling officer, Patrick McKenna, of the
Fifth Ward refused to answer any ques
tions, or give any information snob as was

consequences of refusing to answer ques
tions, still remaining mute he was handed
over into the custody of an officer on a
charge of obstructing the enrollment.—
Provost Marshal Foster turned him over

4. That we now say to all whom it may
concern, not by way of threat, but calmly
and firmly, that we will not surrender'
these rights, nor submit to their forcible
violation. We will obey the laws our
selves, and all others must obey them.
5. That there is a manifest difference
between th., adminis•ration of the govern
meat and the Government itself. The I
Government consists of the civil and po
litical limitations created by the Consti
tution, and to it the people owe allegiance.
The Administration are but the agents of
the people, subject to their approval or
condemnation, according to the merit cr
demerit of their acts.
C. That in the exercise of the right to,
differ with the Federal Executive, we
enter our Solemn protest against the proc
lamation of the President of the United
States, dated the first day of January, one
thousand eight hundred and sixty three,
by which he assumes to emancipate slaves
in certain States, holding the same to be
unwise, unconstitutional, and void.
7. That we declare our determined op
position to a system of emancipation by
the States upon compensation to be mdtle
out of the treasury of the United States,
as burdensome upon the people, unjust in
its very nature, and wholly without war
rant to the Constitution. •
8. That we declare that the pow , r which
has recently been assumed by the President
of the United States, whereby under the
guise of military necessity he has pro
claimed and extended—or asserts the right
to proclaim or extend—martial law over
States 'where war does not exist, and has
suspended the writ of habeas carpus, is
unwarranted by the Constitution, and its
tendency is to subordinate civil to military
authority, and to subvert our system of
free government.
9. That we deem it proper further to
declare that we, together with the truly
loyal people of the State, would hail with
pleasure and delight any manifestations
of a desire on the part orate seceded States
to return to their allegiance to the Gov
ernment of the Union; and in such event
we would cordially and earnestly co-op•
erate with them in the restorationtif peace
and the procurement of such proper guar
antees as would give security to all their
interests and rights.
--10. That the -soldiers composing our
armies merit the warmest thanks of the
nation;' 'Their country called and nobly
did they respond. Living, they shall
know a nation's gratitude; wounded, a
nation's care; and dying, they shall live;
in our tnernories, and monuments ellen
raised 'to teach posterity to honor the
patriOts . antl,heroes who offered their lived
at their country's. altar. Their widows
and - -orphans shall be adopted by the
nation, to be . watched over and cared for
'as objects truly worthy a nation's guardi
anship.
That Ohio will adhere to the Con
stitution and the Union as the best, it may
be the last, hope of popular frePdbm, and
for all wrongs which may have been com•
!flitted or evils which may exist, will se e k
redress, under the Constitution and with
in the Vuicin, by the peaceful but powerful
agency the suffrages of a free people.
12. That we hail with pleasure and hope
the manifestations of conservative senti
ment among the people o: the Northern
States in their election s , and regard the
on
same as the earnest o

By Last Night's Nail,
OHIO DEMOCRAT C STATE CON
VENTION.
50,000 FREEMEN IN CM
The Largest Gathering of Free
men Ever Assembled in
flie State.
We yesterday announced the nomina•
,ion of banished Vallandigham for Gov
ernor of Ohio, by the indomitable Democ
racy of that State. The following is the
Preamble, and a portion of the Res)lu
tions. Oar limited space will not permit
us to publish all of them in to-day's paper:
Platform of the Democracy of Ohio
PREAMBLE.
The Democratic party has ever been,
and yet is, a law abiding party. It asks,
nothing but its rights under the Constitu- '
tion and the laws. It resorts to no viola.
tion of either. It has a right to all the
guaranties of public and private liberty,
and bf property, contained in our fund
amental laws, and it will surrender
not one of them. It has the right to
discuss public measures, and will dis
cuss them. It has a right to propose and
advocate the policy which it deems best
for the nation, and it will exercise that
right. It has a right to have its policy
passed upon by the people at peaceable
and untrammeled elections, and it wll
maintain that right. If found in a minor
ity it yields obedience to all lawful rule cf
the majority; if it be the pisjprity itse4t,l
it claim s that its lawful will be respected.
Whether in a majority or minority, it obeys
all laws that are in force.. Those that
it dislikes, it Seeks to overthrow,
not by violence, but by a legitimate
repeal. Those it proposes, it seeks
to carry not by force but by legal enact
ment. And what it does in all these
respects, it demands ' and has a right to de
mand, that others shall do. They owe the
same obedience to the Constitution and ,
the laws that Democrats owe. They have
the same interest to maintain free govern
ment, to protect liberty, to be secure in
their houses, per,ons and property, tha.
Democrats have. It is neither their in
term nor ours that despotism or anarchy
should prevail ; and if they wish to avert
both, let them see to it in time that they
give no occasion for either. We will do
our duty, let them remember to do theirs.
In view of the circumstances that have
- Int us together, we hereby resolve •
R ESOU - TioNs,
1, That the will of the people is the
foundation of all free government. That
to give effect to this will, tree thought,
free speech and a free press are absolutely
indispensable. Without free discussion,
there is no certainty of sound judgment;
without sound judgment there can be no
wise government.
2. That it is an inherent and constitu
tioual right of the people to discuss eh
measures of their government, and to aD
prove or disappr.lve as to their bEAL jtßig
meat seems right. That they have a like
right to propose and advocate that policy
which in their judgment is best, and to
argue and vote against whatever policy
seems to them to violate the Constitution,
to impair their liberties, or to be detri•
mental to their welfare.
:3. That these and all other rights, guar.
anteed to them by their constitutions, are
their rights in time cf war as well as in
time of peace: and of far more value arid
necessity in War than in peace. For in
peace liberty, security and property are
seldom endangered ; in war, they are ever
in peril.
we have—none desire it more; there are
none who will make greater sacrifices or
endare more than we will -to accomplish
that end. We are, as we ever have been,
the de voted.friende of the:Constitution and
the Union, and we have no sympathy with.
the enemies of either.

State of Ohio; not belonging to the land

manded by Major General Brooks.
I earnestly invite the attention oC t
people of Pe n nsylvani a to the general or he

ders issued by these officers on assutaing
the command of their respective depart,

permanent security to our borders.
I know too well the gallantry and pa
triotism of the freemen of this Common

of our own homes, firesides and property
