Tbe Comptroller's Financial Statement i
We present to our city readers this morning
tbe financial atstement of Comptroller Ward for I
tbe year ending Feb. 1, 1859. It gives a full
exhibit of tbe municipal receipts and expendi
tures for tbe last year, for all purposes—general,
local and special. We reserve for another dsy
» more extended notice of tbe facta presented,
and in tbe meanwhile ask for U tbe careful at
tention of every tax-payer. Tbe Chicago Time*
will raise tbe usual clamor about it, but that is
neither here nor there.
Long John and tbe Ijccompton Charter*
It isnot generally known, but is nevertheless
a fact, that Wentworth desired the passage of
tbe infamous Lecomptoa Charter. He never
penned a paragraph against it for his psper.-
Every article that appeared in the Democrat in
opposition to the enactment of that in&moos
scheme, was inserted by bis employees. Went,
worth wanted it paased. His object waa to " kill
ofT Peck and Judil," to uae his own expression.
Him animosities towards those gentlemen are so
viralent that be waa perfectly willing tbe
people of Chicago should be plundered of tbeir
property and disfranchised of their rigbtof self
government, provided be could feed fat hts
vengefnl spites against those gentlemen.
Had that swindling Charter become a law, it
would have enabled Wentworth to have bel
-1 awed through his paper, that " its enactment
" was tbe result of tbe intjficitncy of the Cook
" County delegation; that, bad he been a mem
" ber it could not have passed; that, bad some
"other men been .elected in tbeir stead, tbe
" thing would not have been impoaed on the
" tax-payers; that this dire calamity would not
4( have happened bad bis opinions and wishes
" been followed in making choice of represents
"lives/* Ac. Ac,
.Shortly be!ore the meeting of the Legislature,
Wcutvvortb called ou ToiuDyarooe Sunday and
told hlui, Jbat as his party had the power in the
Legislature, bo was a great fool if he did not put
through a charter that would give him control of
the city government. Having thus egged on
Thomas, he next wrote mi mticle for his paper,
Kiying that the jieople need give themselves no
txi»ca*m«s* about the L*:compton Charter, a>< tbo
Cook County delegatim could easily defeat It;
that if Ac wo* fn the Legislature hewoutd-have
no trouble in ocating it. After layiug hi* traio
and placing a xlow mutch to it, ha left town und
went to Troy, X. Y.,w> that lie might be at a »»afe
<li<hujcc when the explosion should take place.
There be spent his time in writing hack articles,
uhuviug the State Trustee, aud waiting impatient
ly for the parage of the Lecomptou Charter.
Finding that his fire troika did not jo off as he
expected, he i-neaked home the other Jay to pros

Wentworth Urging the Payment of ttie
. JUcHvitt Claim*
Siuen last fall WentworLli lias written very
little lor hia paper except abuse of the Slate
Trustee for voting to pay the Leavitt claim.
When ut liomc, be writes ab'oul little clk>, and
tvheu absent about nothing cite. He bas nu
old grudge agalnnt the Trustee, and takes Ibi?
method of gratify ing his gnawing animosity
Bad Wentworlh beon Slate Trustee, we have
his own deliberate declaration that be would
have voted for the allowance of tbo claim.
Every paragraph be baa recently published
against its payment, is tbe essence of hypoc
risy. To injure ilr. Hay ba i* willing to stul
tify himself. Xo man in Illinois ever ex.
pressed himself more Btrongly or unqualified
ly in favor of paying the Leavitt claim, tliau
this selfsame Wentworth, who is now chatter
ing und cawing at tbe Trustee lor carrying
out his own urgent request That the pnblie
may judge of the dastardly motives that are
ac'uuiiiig tbe long individual, in bis daily
abuse of the State Trustee, we republish bis
letter to Mr. Leavitt, warmly indorsing tbe
justice of bis claim, and urging ifs payment:

David Lxavrrr, lu anawer to
yours of tbe 25ta InsL, i would state that I re.
member well the circumstances under which tbe
last Canal Loan was obtaioed. The State bad
exhausted all its efforts to raise the money to
complete the CaoaL There was a general d(~
sire that you should go to Eaglaod aad make
tbe effort for as. 1 remember this the more
particularly, as my first knowledge was gained
of you by the familiarity with which oar busi
oes« men used your name as having the confi
dence of foreign capitalists. I remember tbe
great joy rAat was rnantfrtled when ihr newt reach
ed JUinots titot you lutd nailed, aud the expression
was universal amoug our people that if you could
uotMicceid, no one could. Before your depar.
tare, nucb was tbe anxiety for you to go,
that I do not believe that you could have
cxkrd a cumnUtion contingent upon ystir sue*
<f»« to high that our eilizent toouid not 1
hate allowed it triihpleasure And after your re
turn, eucb was the unitcrsat cxprenion of grati
tude to you for your aervioea ibat 1 cannot con>
jectare of any reasonable demand oa your part
that would have beea demurred to by any one.
It is only until recently that 1 have been in*
formed that you have never received any pay
tor your services in negotiating that loan, and it
is mr opinion that tbe people of Illioois gener
ally have supposed that you received the usual
commission ia satisfaction of them.
You ask me, What would be a reasonable 1
commission for the services thus rendered / I
know your services were invaluable to Uu State,
and tbe least oar citizens would expect you to
take, would be what other men in a similar po* 1
aition to yourself were charging for ouch ser
vices at the time.
1 have never been iu a position, either public
or private, that would enable me to aay what
was then or is now, the usual per centage. Bat
1 think you oogbt to be paid upon thts basis,
and liberally paid, too. Were the matter re

Board of Lake Underwriters.
This Board adjourned yesterday afternoon to
meet in New York City on tbe tbitd Monday in
February next. We learn tbe meeting was un
usually large and interesting, and posted off
very cordially and satisfactory. Rales of insur
ance on cargoes were lowered on 3d class arti
cles 38# per cent, from 2d cl ;ss, the Ist and
2d remaining tbe same as last year. Rates
on vessel halls rcmsinlsame as last year. Meas
ures were taken to simplify cargo policies, and
make them uniform, and rendering them more
valuable to the bolder. Tbe former system of
Inspection by Inspectors located at different
points on the Lake, and River St. Lawrence! was
re-adopted. Tbe. proprietors o( tbe Tremont
exhibited to the Board their arrange
ments for polling out Are in tbe Ho
tel, with which the Board were much
pleased, and signified the same by a complimen
tary resolution. Yesterday they examined
Fcnill's patent apparatus for stcei ing propell
ers and GiJmau'd patent apparAtqs for letting go a
second anchor on tbe same ca <le, and as many of
these gentlemen arc nautical men of extensive
and long experience, their opinion will no doubt
tend to effect some good in these nutters.
The venerable gentleman who presided over
tbe Board received a very oomplimentaiy acknowl
edgement for tbo unexceptionable manner in
which be discharged bis duty, by a resolution of
the Board.
The Secretary, who bos been tbe active officer
from tbe beginning of tbe organization (Ave
years) also received a complimentary notice by
resolution after which the Board adjourned.
Subsequently in tbe evening toey partook
of a collation provided for the occasion,
which passed off very pleasantly and tbe |
Board comprises among its members About ,
all tbe sound and reliable companies engaged in
the inland business, and it is gratifying to see
the result of tbeir labor, boib as to their own
business and in tbe way of reform in buildiog,
navigating and lading our lake craft, and in dis
criminating in favor of tbe good master and
vessel against tbe lad. No doubt they have,
been, and will again, be the canse ot saving
thousands of valuable Uvea and an immense
amount of property, and tbe public should ap
preciate it. The Atlantic Underwriters give
them the credit of having tbe most perfect sys
tem on record, which we, as Western people,
should feel proud of. We say success and long
life to tbem and tbeir efforts to do good.
We omitted to state that tbe following gen
tlemen were unanimously elected to the office of
tbe association for the ensuing year:
Executive Committee—E. P. Dorr, or Buffalo ;
Wm. Steward, of Toronto, C. W.; J. A. llel
fenstein, Milwaukee; and 1). P. Bobbins, of

Drati ok Fibs Alabus —Our friend Drake
at tbe Tremont, in view of tbe "presence of his
guests of the Underwriter's Convention, by
way of showing them that the share of their in
terests in bis charge was well attended to, at
their noon adjournment yesterday invited them
to witness the modn* openandi of a fire alarm
at the Tremont. He stepped across tbe ball, tbe
Convention expecting bim to take them to va
rious parts of tbe building, were themselves
startled a little at the tintinnabulation of a
huge bell in the hotel-area, kept only for fire
purposes. Directly and manifestly
"Thrre was racta* aodchatlas"
from all parts of tbe establishment. Cook and
pantryman, waiter and scullion, porter and
" boots," all csme in in a dead heat to be first
at tbe hotel office, where the whole force of
about one hundred took their places in* four
brigades, each under its captain, while the
guests not in the secret looked on with aston
ishment, not perbsps unmixed with uneasiness.
This was the Tremont Fire Brigade. " No. \
to tbe roof, n —and away they went in follow*
my.leader style up stairs, at a gait that fright
ened the chambermaids and timid lady boarders
half out of tbeir wits:
The rest of the force was disposed of various
ly to forward tbe genera), stimulated purpose of
a fire in the upper story, and in less thso four
minutes tbe powerful stesm pump in tbe area
was throwing through five hundred feet of hose
a strong stream on tbe roof, sufficient unaided
by tbe city Fire Department to drown out a fire
sot under advanced headway. The bouse watch
man on duty through the night with the "Bri
gade*' ever ready to answer tbe first tap of the
alarm bell, were features of Drake's system
which as a whole wss commended by the Con

Raxpolph St&ket.—'The great change which
Randolph street, from Clark east to the Lake, luu
witnessed within two years past, has developed
it Into a flrst-closs bosioosa thoroughfare. It comets
nearer Icing finished to-day tban any other street
of equal importance In Chicago. It is even with
iho hut high grade, its old business blocks bare
been raised to grade, many of them, and other
fine blocks hare been built, and thud Lake st. baa
lost laurels it will never recover from the portion
of Randolph street between State abd Clark.
As a consequeuce, some of tbe Lake st. bouses 1
are seeking a new location, tbe while with cheaper
rents they enjoy better accommodations. The |
well-known clothing bouse of Taffek & Bro., |
now H. H. Tajppen, hats just taken possession of
tbeir elegant new store in tbe fine Iron block on
tbe corner of Randolph and Dearborn, which en.
joys a front having probably more passere-by
daily tban any other in this city.
H. H. Tuppen, the senior of the old fitm will
more than reproduce its past enterprise and tbo
results of the same so satls'actory to tbeir patrons,
and has done so in a beautiful store now filling
up with one of the choicest stocks of good* ever
opened in Chicago, with more coming,until if tbe
demands of the most fastidious purchaser, as well
aathe requirements of every purse be not antici
pated fully that case is a hopeless one. The pys
tem of One Price, and that plainly marked on the
goods secures the most unwary buyer just what
he expects, if be can reudjtbe figures.
Tappen has fully demonstrated the problem
be set out with iu Chicago—has won troops of
friends, and a " dfeng acquaintance " of pa
trons from a wide circle of country tributary to
this city, and be " still lives" under better aus
pices to than ever before to win, where bis spe
cifications claimed are low prices for his gpods,
cheap rates for all gradeß of stock, together with
taste and skill ia the m&nufacture of clothing
under his own eye in this cxij. Give bim a call
at No. 102 Randolph street, and find that be can
fit out ao army of laborers and mechanics, array
a regiment of well dressed men, and fit oat a
troop of exquisites, from his coanters, and
shelves, and benches.

Paul & Fond du Lac Railroad Company, Eject
ment, to recover possession of a strip of land ia
tbe West Division, as fully narrated in our last
issue was read yesterday morning at the opening
of tbe UfiiWil Stetes District Court, and tbe jury
shown to have found for the plaintiff Kingsbury.
On motion of tho defendants Counsel tbe jury
was then polled, and in answer "to the call of his
name one of the Juror. Daniel Multfns, rose and
stated that the vcdict as read was sure enough his
verdict when he signed it, bat tliat he found in the
morniog hi* mind bad changed from conscientious
reasons, ratbtr strongly hlntlog that he had
thought better of the weakness of listening to,
and being influenced by "eleven contrary men 11 tbe
night before. Mr. Mullens in fact now diiagretd.
Tbe case was thereupon recommitted to the jury
who retired, and after being oat two boon tbe
eleven contrary men were again successful. Mr.
Muliins succumbed and the verdict was returned
as before.
This is the second verdict in this case. The
properly is worth from $30,000 to 140,000 as an
appendage to the lots of tvhich it forms the rirer
front. For other purposes it is of no value.

The Home of the Fme.vdlesh—li at all times
a most attractive and suggestive name; but special
ly so at this season, when the long winter evening
bright Ore, and genial warmth of a ci?y room'
give additional zest to our own loved homes.
Could you see beipteds infancy, numbering its age
by dayj aud mouilis, as tvell as the aged pilgrim,
whose year* are counted by scores and trials, alike
housed aud teudt'd, you would say, truly there is a
•'Home for tbe Could you see the
oppressed, neglected children of parents trans
formed by liquid fire into monsters of prupltv,
clcansoJ, cbttied arid adopted into families, to be
-trained fur Uiefulnes* here and bappiuess here
after, you tvuuld ugaiu ray, there is indeed a
" Home far the Friendless." Could you see, as I
haye neon, girlish innocence, with God's seal of
beauty aud intelligence stamped upou her brow,
seeking refuge from one beanng Ibe sacrt'd name
of mother, but using that power only to dostrpy
God's image;—could you tec such an one em
braced in thi* refuge, and transplanted at her own
I urgent desire to a home where .she will be fitted
fo I'lcsd a boufehold of her own, you would still
say, siuely there i* a " ltomc for the friendless."
Our bletfct d SaviourV biography is written In a
single sentence— 44 lie went about doing good.''
He has accorded us the privilege of being humble,
followers in his footsteps—nay, co-laborers with
yii3,iu lias work of icye. The 44 IJojps Tor tue
Friendless,*' with its able, devatcd matron, and ef
fective organization, Is a powerful means of ac
complishing this mission. It comes before you
to-day, not as an.experiment, but a decided suc
cess. It had its birib ia the nrdst of hard times,
when the cowing winter cast gloomy shadows be
fore it. Laborious, persevering effort took hold of
it, f.titli aud prayer baptized it, aud now, though
but five months old, it is a vigorous, almost gigan
tic Infant. Facts you want, and facts you shall
base, pne hundred aod firtjr-five applicants have
been received, a large majority or whom have
been children. Homes and situations have been
procured for more than one hundred of these.
The children in almost all cases, have been Adopt
ed. The Hoztye has furty-mne inmattg, of whom
eight are infants under si* months of* age. Bp
tweeu lorty end filly persons have been furnished
with homes and situations through the medium of
the * 4 Horae," without becoming inmates. Ibis
institution needs its treasury replenished, tbat our
bauds may be able to dj what tbe "liberal heart
dev iseth." To tocure the co operation of all, it is
ou]y necessary to say, that on Monday evening,
February Zl'st, a fcrond donation and tea party
will be held at Metropolitan llall for its benefit.
On tbat occasion, orders for and donations of pro
visions, fuel und materials for clothing and bed
ding, will be most acceptable, sa they are greatly
needed; aud a committee to receive and record
them will be in intend inoc on the afternoon of
that dsy. 1 luve bad the privilege o Übonog io
different cities In the cause 6f bcneyolence.tmd
can here testify that no city has more benevolent
hearts and active bunds than Chicago. Qurcoua
try frieods nave afforded' us substantial aid and
sympathy in this movement. Their donations
have been gratefully received and faithfully ap
propriated, and will, we uave no doubt, increase
as the object of tbe institution becomes more
widely known, through tbe medium of tbe pre»s,
and circulars always to be obtained at tbe Home.
"Oy their fruits ye thall know ibem." is the test
of infallible wisdsm; and the *' uome of the
Fiiendie&V with outstretched arm and uplifted
eye, will not plead in vaio. •' Be that bath pity
upon the poor, lendeth onto the Lord; aud that
which he hath given will he pay him again."

Tub Bct&ns Akj.ivirsa.bt Fsstital.—lf in the
letter ot 44 Eaqairier," ia oar issue of jester
day, any censure or distrust of the gentlemen ot
the Committee was implied, the aame certainly
was not intended to be indorsed by giving
to the communication In oar columns. " En*
qnirer" can scarcely have served on a com*
mUtea for aa occasion like the Burns Festival,
or atjy other Festival far tbe benefit of the pftor,
or experience dear bought would have taught
him that there is usually little or "&othing 1
over," if indeed there fortnnately is no falling
short to be met by tbe dead strain at tbe purse
of the members of the Tf e follow
is in point:
Sditors cf Pro* and Tribune: In reply to i
your correapondent" Enquirer," in yesterday's '
paper, regarding the disposition of the fundi 1
arisiogj from the Barns Celebration, permit me
to say that it is tbe intention of the Managers to
publish'a detailed account of the-income and ]
expenditure connected with tbe affair as soon as
all the accounts are audited and aettled* Judg
ing, bowerer,;from the gross amount of expesd
itqfe and receipts, I am warranted in stating
that the balance will scarcely amount to a sum
autlicieut to aatiafy our philanthropic ladies in
distributing tbe same to saoh advantage as tbey
have been led to expect Meantime 1 beg to
assure alf inquirers that a straightforward state

K3T Father Chiniqqy has returned to Canada,
where we understand he intends to remain. On
.Sundsy, the Cth iost, theßiahop of Toronto
caused a letter to be read in all tbe churches,
prohibiting Roman Catholics from attending
any of his lectures, listening to his discourses;
or having any dealings (rapport) with him. On
Friday, the 11th, he lectured at Qaebec to %
crowded auditory. Tbe Qaebec Chronicle ssys:
" Mr. Chiniquy spoke for about an hour and a
half relating tho particulars of the difficulty he
has had with his ecclesiestical superiors. He
was listened to with great attention; perfect or
der prevailed during the delivery ol bis ad
dress, and his remarks were received with mani
fest approbation and sympathy."
Mrs. Wnsßtsß's Lbctubb.—We would refer
our lady readers to Mrs. Wheeler's advertise
ment in regard to a course of lectures upon An
atomy and Physiology, to commence on Monday
afternoon, in the lectors room of the First Pres
bjterian Church.
The importance of the subjects, with the fiae
illustrations composing Mrs, W.'s apparatus,
together with the lsdy's superior reputation as
a lecturer, will, no doubt, call out a Urge class.
