The Pea Patch Case-IAe Bail of the Murderer
Of Kelly increased-Ine Blockiey Aimshduse--A
Man caught on Observation-Disclosures of the
Police Force-Additional REGARD for Muir
derer, &c.
The argument on the Pea Patch case was COM
menced this morning by the Hon. Mr.. Bayard.
One of the gang OF "skinners," named
Valiant, who was arrested during the search for
the murderer of Kelly, which followed the COM
mission of the deed in Southwark, was this
morning brought before Judge Kelly on writ
of habeds corpus, to procure reduction of the
amount of bail required. The Alderman who
heard the testimony elected on that occasion,
required $500 bail, but the Judge, instead of re-
ducing the amount as asked, trebled 1t, and he
was ordered. to find 81 500 security, or be re-

natic department; being 225 more than at the
same time last year.
Samuel Cottingham, workman In one OF the
mills at Manayunk, was dreadfuly injured by
being caught up in the cowcatcher OF paseen-
ger train on the railroad, near that place. He
was crossing the track but did not see the train
owing to curve IN the road;
The proposition made in the City Councils, to
increase the police force Of the city to one hun
bred men, exclusive of the nightly watch, meets
with general appreciation. Mayor Swift has for
a long time been asking for this increase, and
the carrying out of his views will render our
city less liable to disturbances. When this po-
lice force is fully organized it is understood to
be his intention to prevent the county fire
companies from passing through the city at every

Nv Mother.

There was a smile, twas couched in love;
Behind it lurked no Ill
That smile could every thing remove,
Could every anguish still;
1t played in almost every breath,
On cheeks that knew no guile;
And left its footsteps there in death -
1t was my mothers smile.
There was tear, I've seen It fall,
And break upon my breast;
And there its hallowed fragments all
In sweet memorial rest.
Long time kind heaven refused to dry
That lucid drop-so dear;
As + lingcr'd in her dying eye,
1t was my mothers tear.
There was a kiss, the mind could calm,
Its sweets l loved to sips
Asst fell like some celestial balm
Upon the ruby lip.
Twas not formal fondness shrined;
But all replete with bliss,
And left a pleasing charm behind;
1t was my mothers kiss.
There was q voice-Ive heard it thrill,
In rnpturcs through my SOUL
And there, in sweetest music still
Its echoes softly roll;
Though joined with anthem penls above,
Where sainted hosts rejoice,
] spmetimes catch its strains Of love
1t was my mothers voice
There was prayer-rve heard it breaih'd
As, by the chair I've knelt,
Its ev'ry lisp, with love was wreathd,
Its every meaning felt;
The pearly gates would oft unfold
To catch its pleadings there,
As in unearthly notes it roll'd-
1t was my mothers prayer.
That tear, and kiss, arc now no more
That voice, and smile, are fed
That prayer, hear no longer soar
That mother, too, is dead.
She's gone to join the angel throng,-
The blood-bought bands on high
And chant 4never ending song
In yonder gem-paved sky.
