RECOVERY OF a WoMAN's TRUNK BY
OMEIETTE TRACES. Two OF three days
ago young woman, who gave every indi
cation of being abundantly able to take care
of herself aud whatever might belong to
her, arrived in Pltsburg from the West
She claimed her trunk on the platform OF
the depot, but was refused possession OF 1t
until she should show her check. This she
did not do, and the trunk was wheeled iulo
the baggage-room. Thither she followed il
and again made her demand, designating as
her property structure big enough for
"Saratoga," but OF aniiquated build. She
was again asked for her check, and made a
vigorous search for it, She seemed in mo-
mcntary distress of mind as she became
convinced that she had lost the check, but
soon recuperated, and made n straightlor-
ward and obviously honest appeal to have
her property restored. AT length it was
agreed that the trunk should be given ot
her if she would faithfully describe It's con
tents. She straightway commenced her
inventory The trunk contained so many
dresses, so many night caps, so many pairs
Of stockings, so many bottles of medicine III
cese of sickness, so many etc, and in tht
tin of the trunk had been placed lhret
dozen and half of fresh eggs The des
cnption having been completed, the trunl

Obvious in a moment. The eggs were there

Marshal, for 1866, sent to Councils yesterday,
with other Department reports, contains the
following statemCnt:-The losses by fire In 1866
far exceeded those OF 1865. Not only in
America, but all over, the world, the flaming
bosom, in its irresistible sweep, made frightful
wreck and ruin. Both IN number and extent of
damage, the fires of this year we're without
precedent. From the records which l have
most reliable sources. estimate the total loss
by burning in the United States at not less than
$50, ,00O,O coo for 1864, S75 600 600 for 1865, and
500, 600 OOO' for 1866. Tue aggregate loss in
$40, ,000,O 600.
Philadelphia was comparatively favored; yet
her losses in 1866 amounted to SO, 600, 900 which
are more than double that sustained by her in
the preceding year, and treble that of 1864.
The exact figures OF the past year are as fol-

MEETING OF THE CAMDEN CoUNCIL.-A tated
meeting of the City Council OF Camden was
held last evening, and considerable business of
imp portance transacted.
petition was presented requesting the re-
moVal of Reeds hide and tallow establishment,
at Second and Mickle streets, to some place out.
side the city limits. The petition was referred
to the Sanitary Committee.
lit is greatly to be hoped that the Committee
Will present a favorable report in this matter,
as soon as possible. 1t will be remembered
that nearly all the cholera cases in Camden
last summer we're in the immediate vicinity of
this filthy concern, and If the city authorities
intend to do anything to prevent the ravages of
the cholera during the present warm season,
their first duty is to remedy this evil.l
The report OF the Finance Committee was pre-
sented and read. During the present month,
the collection of city taxes has resulted as fol-
lows:-NOrth Ward collections, Sl79'04; remain
ing unpaid, S629l48. Middle Ward collections,
SCOTT; remaining unpaid, $534518. South
Ward collections, Sl670'85; remaining unpaid,
S463860.
The report of the City Treasurer was also
read, from which it appears that the North
Ward has a surplus OF $2l04'9l; while the
Middle Ward is indebted to the city in $l5, ,65e'32
and the South Ward in $l3,O9Slb. The cash on
hand in the City Treasury is $7845'S5.
Several licenses to sell liquor were granted,
and a number of applications refused.
Several resolutions relating to the opening Of
certain streets and the culverting of others
were then discussed and adopted, when the
Council adjourned,
