Gorkies’ Concert.—The Concert for -he benefit of the Widows at Abrahams’ Home, given at jTasonic Hail on Thursday evening, was a most decided success, In every respect gratifying to the audience, and highly creditable to Professor Gorres aid his talented Amateur assistants.

Os the young lady amateurs, who contributed so much to the enjoy ment of the occasion, it would be out of place liere t, speak more particularly. They deserved what they received without stint, the hearty applause of ineiarge and discriminating audience. We have heard the wish very generally expressed, that the concert may be repeated at an early day. Recovery of a Stolen Watch. On the night of the 18th of February, 1863, Mr. Geo. King and several other gentlemen went to the bar of h .Mrs. Mary Wallace, on East Broad street. After remaining in the bar for a short time, two women, Mrs. Wallace and Mrs. Fowler, went up to King and got Into n conversation with him; Mrs. Wallace took hold of King's watch chain, apparently playing with it; on King’s going to the door, one of his friends drew his attention to the fact that the chain or his watch was broken. On examination, he found his gold watch was stolen. That night the police ar rested the two females, and on the next morning they were turned over to Justice P. M. Russeii for prosecution. At the Instance of King, a warrant wa? issued against them for larceny horn the person. Previous to the examination. King, who was a pilot, had to leave the city, and the parties, we believe, were accordingly discharged for want of evidence. About ten days ago Mrs. Wallace, now Mrs. Avnell, brought an action against a Mr. Maher In the Pro vost Marshal’s Court for the recovery of a gold watch she had pa wned to the defendant for $26. After an examination of the case, the Court ordered the watch to be given to Mrs. Avnell upon her paying to ihr defendant the $25 she had borrowed. Justice Russell notified Mr. King, and advised him to find out who had the watch In possession and take a look at the same, as he (Russell) thought the watch was King’s. Accordingly, Mr- King called upon the at torney of Mia. Avnell, who showed him the watch, which was identified by Mr. King as his property which was stolen. Upon application to the Provost Marshal, the watch was returned to the Registrar of his Court under his order for further Investigation. Oa yesterday the case came up for trial. The de fendant appeared by her counsel. Mr. King proved to the Court that the watch was stolen from him and proved the name and maker of the watch. AU the witnesses in this case were respectable persons. This same Mrs. Wallace, now Mrs. Avnell. a short ume after her discharge brought an action against King for defamation of character, and alleged her damages at SIO,OOO. Mr. Russell deserves much credit in thi3 case, as fie represented Mr. King us his attorney, and refused to receive any fee for his services, as he originally Is sued the writ. Counsel for plaintiff, Hon. Philip M. Russeii; for defendant. Judge Benedict. Change of Weather. Our city has been visited, dally, for more than a week past, with frequent and copious showers of rain, which, whUe they have greatly Improved the tsmperature of the atmosphere for comfort, have made the streets quite muddy and walking decidedly unpleasant. The continuous Inclemency of the weather and frequent changes in the temperature of the atmos « phere combining may render the season, for a time, not only uncomfortable but unwholesome. There are times in this month, In every latitude and lo cality, when every one should be especially careful of health. A slight Indiscretion In eating or physical action, may produce the most unpleasant, If not painful results. All should, therefore, refrain from eating fruit, of any kind, that is not ripe and fresh, or from consuming vegetables that are not mature, and such as are over ripe. Sitting 01 walking In the sunshine, or sitting In the dew after nightfall, may tend to bring on and con firm such complaints as cholera, diarrhoea, dysen tery, fever and ague, and kindred affections. Above all, keep your premia* clean, have your food prepared with care, your bed room well aired and dry maintain a clear conscience, and all will be well. THE COURTS. BEFORE LIE'S. COL. M. T.

Still thet Come. —The New York Jour nal of Commerce of the 24th ult., says: Over 17,000 passengers have landed at Castle Garden since the Ist iost. Os this great num ber several hundred immediately departed for Richmond and other cities in the South ern States, where they intend engaging in farming. Among these were 200 Swedes ut teily ignorant ot our language, they can still render essential service in tilling the soil. About 200 Swiss and Polish passengers have recently arrived, and thousands more are ex pected. These persons leave their native land, maDy of them in exile for political offences, and they seek our hospitable shores to escape the tyranny under which they have long bowed. They have, as a general thing, no money, but seem to show a laudable spirit .in at once seeking employment. In this tliey very seldom fail, lor if they are net needed here, there are plenty ot avenues already opened and yet to open in the South and West. No man need be long idle if be diligently seeks employment. A letter dated Constantinople. August 2, mentions that Stephen Effendi, the civil head of the Protestant community in Turkey’, was living with his son in Stambool. He was suddenly attacked with cholera on the 31st ult., ana died in a few hours. Influenced by a panic of fear, the sou that night set fire to the house in which his father’s body remain ed, and then hung himself. The letter adds : Half the physicians appointed by Govern ment on fabulous salaries have fled from their posts in dismay, or deserted them on plea of sickness. Business is at a stand still. The Government offices are almost all closed. The Pasha of Egypt, who fled to this city to escape the cholera there has now fled trom us and gone back to Alexandria, where the crisis of the epidemic has passed. The latest invention of India rubber, in Paris, is “a false bust and neck" for female’, a perfect imitation of flesh and blood, and (as they say of good counterfeits) “well calcu lated to deceive.” At the circle where the true and false neck are connected, is worn a band ol ribbon, or a white necklace, which completely conceals the junction. t The Italian prisoners, who took part some two years ago in the Polish insurrection, and sent to Siberia, are about to experience a special act of clemency on the part of the Emperor of Russia. John Mitchell, by permission of the War Department, is now allowed to promenade tlie grounds of Fortress Monroe. He took his first walk ou Wednesday morning, aud is said to have enjoyed it hugely. A Boston reporter was publicly eowhided by an indignant female, on Thursday, who, having been cruelly deserted by her tuithless husband, had been referred to by the knight of the quill as “a poor abandoned creature!” Just now, tbe working classes of Canada, chiefly the French population of tbe Lower Provinces, are flocking to the New England Stites. Employment in the factories at high wages is the principal Inducement. Notice.
