... M Cilg (Comsp nnbmtt. . . : From Philadelphia. Correspondence of the Democrat $ Sentinel. ; W Philadelphia, March 4, 1855. " ' The commencement season of onr medical Col leges has arrived, and the anxious graduate are separated by but a short bridge of lime from the great event they have long been looking forward to with so much anxiety, the - reception of their diplomas.. The commencement of the Philadel phia College has already taken phtce, the HooHje pathic College has manufactured some thirty-'eight il. DS of that system, and the Pennsylvania, "Jefferson and University, will soon 'follow.' with some three or four hund red more. A greater num ber of Medical Students annually graduate here than at any other City in the world, and the high st degree of excellence is attained by bur Pro fessors, It is a matter of congratulation, too, that the habits of the 'students seem much less "boisterous than formerly. A few years ago they wrere constantly figuring conspiculously in our police reports and in connection with riots, rows, Sttid quarrels, Vut such occurrences are now very Vare. - - - - - One of the most exciting topics of the day con nected with'our "mfctMpal -politica, is Ihe grave 'question whether the folicmeti shall or -shall not wear a new style of hat, the crown ofVhich is to be tipped with leather, and the shape very pecu liar. Quite a stormy debate took place in Coun cils on the subject, and many of the policemen pro test against it most lustily as being too much of the livery style to suit the tastes of an American citizen. The Mayor, however, has finally settled the point in a very summary " no song, no sup per" style, by announcing that those who decline wearing the hat, shall have bo official head to wear it on, but 6hall at once bo dismissed from the ser vice. Quite an excitement was created here a short time since among the checker-players by the ad veatof a Scotchman said to be the best player in the world, who very speedily took dwn everybody ' here who plumed himself upon his proficiency in 'that game. He was quite an unassuming sort of m individual, full of Scottish characteristics, and although considerable sums of mcney were won j:pon his game he scrupulously avoided betting himself. His career was brought to a -close here by xl. engagement on his jart to go to Buffctlo. to play with him. His travelling and hotel expen ses all to be paid, and he to receive $1 per day be sides. This is probably the first regular engage ment at checker playing on record. ; " " . The recent cold weather having frozen the Schuylkill and other streams, our skaters have been having a merry time gliding over them. . So great was the crowd upon the ice that the pick pockets selected it Tor the -scene of their opera tions upon a number ef victims. 'Several persons have made very many narrow escapes from drown ing, and only been rescued tjy the daring and aki'l of members of the Skater's Club and the timely use of their reek and cords. ...

The old story that Sebastopol is not yet taken, -forms the prin cipal item of her news. The Emperor of Russia has ordered the -whole Russian male population to 'arms, and made arrangements to send S00,000 new troops to the Crimea. The French and En .glifih are also receiving some reinforcements. A -detachment of English troops from India had ar rived at Suez on their way to the Crimea, but as an insurrection has broken out in the East Indies it is doubtful whether any more soldiers can be spared From, that quarter. A French company -has offered -to ra'fie 15,000 or 20000 men to help 'England oat of the dilemma her inability to obtain -recruits has placed her in, and it is thought the Government will accept the proposition.

Chestnut street seems particu larly unfortunate. Within the last few years a number of very destructive fires have occurred upon it from Fifth up to Ninth street. The re cent fire was upon the site formerly occupied as Barnum's Philadelphia Museum. - But a few months since a fire occurred at the N. W. corner of Fifth and Chestnut streets, which royd a va8t property.- ght months sin nearly the whole block from -Wh to I taghth.andback to George street, in- eluding W elsh's Circus and the Chin M.n was burnt down; and but a few years since a verv destruetivefire occurred at the corner of Sixth and. Chesnui. The fire last alluded to. as well as several others, at one time seriously threatened to destroy Independence Hall, whkh w on the south side of Chestnut between Fifth and Sixth. But when that sacred piJeVas menaced' with the de vouring element, the citizens and firemen at once forgot all other dangers, and all their energies were directed towards securing its safety. No peril was too great to encounter, no labor Peat to undertake, no exposure too great to adore to ensur its safety, and from the feeling PonUneously maniested there WM no doubt that "ureas of the spectators were ready to risk, and TJZTL -- -gofous efforts. wa. n,;r; B Wa" but the scene COTTHTY HEETIITG- Respecting tlie new county of "Conemaugii.". :' : A very large and respectable meeting) composed of the citizens of every town ship and borough in the: county of Cam" bria, convened in" the Court; House on Tuesday evening for the purpose of ex-' pressing their views in regard to the propo - sition now pending to erect the new coun ty of Conemangh. ; .

Douglass, Isaae Wike, Peter Dougherty, Isaac Evairs, Alphcus Tibbitts, and Peter Kay lor. T. L. Heyer, Esq., of Johnstown, was then called upon to address the meeting. He responded in an able manner, arguing that the interests of the people of Johns town would be enhanced by the proposed county of Conemaugh. .The committee then reported the fol- , lowing resolutions which were adopted: . Whereas, The County of Cambria is ; now one of the smallest in the Common wealth, both in extent and population; occupying an area nearly square, on the table land of the Allegheny mountain; with a seat of Justice within five miles of her centre, and within two or three hours ride of Johnstown, the proposed new county seat:- And . Whereas, The integrity of our terri tory, which has been preserved for nearly . fifty years, is now attempted to be de stroyed by sundering us into fragmentary divisions and alien communities, for the benefit of a few, to the injury of the great mass of our population : Therefore be it Resolved, That the people of "Can bria county, assembled to council, from every precinct, respectfully, but solemnly, pro- test against the disintegration of the " Mountain County," and earnestly invoke our law makers to pause -before they in flict this great wrong upon us. . " Hesolced, That :n thus protesting, ihe rival interests of Ebcnshurg -and Johns town are with us matterB df secondary . importance, to the picture of increased burdens and diminished resources that wooid -follow 4he dismemberment of Cambria county. ' ; - Resolved, That any such dismember ment would in a very great measure render us morally, socially, and politically impo tent, and prevent the voice of our county from being heard in the halls of Legisla tion. V'"- -; "v ' Resolved, That the new county qnes-" tion was not made Yhe test at our State general election, as the election returns conclusively show, Mr. KiBgTjeingvcry few votes in advance of his ticket. Resolved, That we rejrret that a ques- ' tion of veracity has arisen between Mr. King and some of our citizens; yet we cannot, in such an issue, doubt the asser tion s of CoL Heyer and Maj. Thompson, when only contradicted by Mr.' King, . whose pledges on other subjects have not been redeemed. Resolved, That in the language of in- ' dignant freemen we deprecate the officious intermeddling of Philadelphia corpora tions in our domestic relations; and trust the legislature will hearken to the. bona . Jede citizens of Cumbria county, in pref erence to soulless-corporations.-' Resolved, That while wo cherub, the right to meet and express our own opin ions on this and all other subjects, we accord the same right to those who think ' differently from us; but wr do trust that' hereafter our new county friends will not ' permit their organ . to villify and defame private character ' , ; Resolved, That we liive en ahiding confidence io our own Senator, Hon. John . Cresswell, and Will not doubt that the lo cal interests of " Little Cambria" are se sure in his hands; and that he is not pre pared to "parcel out her territory anion' her despoilers. John Fenlon, Esq., having been called, upon, responded in. his usual happy style, using arguments very clearly showing that there is ro -necessity for the dismem berment of Cambria county. On motion, E. Hutchinson, Esq., then addressed the meeting in a few words but io the purpose, stating that he was op posed to Conemaugh county, and would -be until convinced that there is a nccssi- . ty for it. . , r 1L L Johnston, Esq.; next . addressed the meeting in a speech of somo length, showing clearly that in these times of Railvoada aud Tlank roads there ia. no n necessity for lopping off the territory of i Cambria. . - On motion; Col.C.

Pershing, Esq., ad dressed the meeting in favor of the divis. ion of the county, but stating that if Con emaugh county is not erected, -that he, and he believed a majority of his fellow citizens of Johnstown would sooner attend court in Ebensburg than at any proposed county seat. - Mr. A. J. Rhey being ealled out, ad-' dressed the meeting in a neat and very appropriate speech, opposing the division -of the county. , v s i Ff' V' ,MftBn ing loudly cal led for, took the floor and stated that if Cambria county i Ii?ided it W)uld m08t like y be many years without a voice in our legislative halls, and deprecating any ? such movement as unjust and uncalled for.- -. . , ;.

At a meeting held in the Zoar School House en Friday night, March 2d, JOHN E. KOBEETS was called upon to act as President; John Pryce and Hugh Tudor, Vice Presidents; and John Jones Secretary. Alter several addresses, a lonunuw was appointed to report resolutions, who presen ted the following, which were unanimously adopted: Whkbkas, An effort is being made by -the floating population of Johnstown to make an im pression throughout the State, that the citizens -of the northern part of Cambria county are in favor of the dismemberment of said county and that only a few landlords and lawyers of Ebensburg are opposed to it. Therefore , Httolvtd, That we, the yeomanry or camona county, are opposed to any division of it, knowing that pvblic interest does not require it, and that it would increase our already heavy taxes. ' . Jletolved, That the bill before the Legislature for the erection of Conemaugh county, is without a pre cedent, in asking us to maintain her prisoners for three years after that coulrty has been erected. SetolteJ, That those of us who voted for George S. King, voted forim on party grounds alone, having received what we considered . safficient pledges from him, that ke would not favor the dis memberment of Cambria cownty. - - Jietolved, That George 8. King has betrayed the confidence we placed in him, and the oulv way he can regain the confidence of his constituents is by withdrawing the lill for the erection of the county of Conemaugh, and resigning his seat in the legis lative halls. , : On motion the proceedings were signed by the officers, and ordered to be published in the " Alle ghanian" and Democrat & SetineL" On motion adjourned. .

Shiels, in Loretto, on Friday evening, March 3d, for the pur pose of expressing their sentiments with respect to the contemplated formation of Conemaugh county. The meeting was organized by appointing PE TER CHR1STV President, aad Philip Ilertzog and Matthew Addlesberger Vice Presideata, and John Reilly Secretary. The object of the meeting was stated in a.brief speech by James Kaylor, after which the President appointed Alexander Yinger, Michael Addlesber ger and James J. Taylor, a committee to draft res olutions expressive of the sensa.of the meeting. - After retiring for a short time the committee re ported the following resolutions which were unan imously adopted. - YYhreas, An attempt is now being made by a portion of the citizens of Johnstown and vicinity to procure the passage of an act by the present Legislature to erect a new county to be called Con emaugh, out of parts of Cambria and the adjoin ing counties: ai Whebkas Cambria being one of the smallest counties in the State, cannot suffer any diminution of her territory without serious in jury to a large majority of her citizens. Therefore, Retolvrd, That we most earnestly protest against any project calculated to reduce the present circumsoribed limits of this county. Beioloed, That we most respectfully appeal to the Legislature, and hope that honorable body will protect us from the effects of a scheme which, if succesful, must inflict lasting injury upon Cam bria county.' . Maaolvtd, That in view of the financial condition of Cambria, county with a heavy debt lately con tracted for the erection of a poor house, we con sider aay dismemberment of her territory oppres sive, impolitic, and unjust. - Retolved, That we have too much confidence in the wisdom and justice of our Legislatere to believe that that body will sanction this design, as it is to injure many for the benefit of a few. j. Retolved, That complaints from citizens of Johns town of inconvenience in reaching Lbensburg come with a bad grace, whilst persons from other portions of the county travel twice as far without a murmur. - ' - - Retolved, That the proceedings of this meeting be signed by the officers and published in the coun ty papers. . r .- ' On motion the BMettni adJownHKL -- " (Signed by the Officers.
