THE DAILY EVRKING TELEGftAHI. PHILADELPHIA, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 15, 1867. G CRIME AND ITS REMEDY. To lf Eilitor of The Evening Telegraph: fjjr: Your very impressive anil suggestive editorial, in last Fi'i Jay's ralwr 011 the above topic, is worthy of the thoughtful consideration of every true patriot. You are evidently over whelmed by the portentous dimensions to which crime and its inciting causes have grown. After recounting eomo of those .entrees of iniquity, you propound, as if to invite discussion, a number of questions, and wisely a'nd justly conclude as follows: "Bo long ns society allows llieso powerful and Ulcoplessly active hi II nonces of evil to riot, un checked, we mu si look for crJmn to in-Teaso. We may Imnn men lor murder, but ho long ns we tolerate those Imae vices Una madden inim's brains with poison mid their hearts with lust, and their whole beings with passion, wo must expect vlolenco and murder to lucre ise. To secure a decrease of crlmo, we must In-iilri nl the bottom, and work against those vicious and destructive inlluences of which crime is only the natural and necessary fruit," There, Mr. Editor, you struck the key-note of this prolific theme. The diseas) is organic, and must have orpanic remedies. The greatest difficulty in curing the ills of the publie life, consists in the fact that there is no proper agreement among the people n the subject and as you very accurately refer n severa evils as tho source of crime, without suggest ing any remedies, permit iao bristly to discuss them in their order. The Ihmoralization of the War. The w.u 'ioubtbss demoralized many, but, to my own personal knowli-dge, it saved many also, by pelting a new Held of emulation and ambition. 1'eihaps its greatest influence for evil was in the direction of intemperance and familiarity With blood. It is to be hopisi, however, that we have gained as much besides, in personal bravery and devotion to Hag and country, by the war, as we have lost by the others. Of the murders so frequently coming to light, it may be said that a majority of them are commit ted by expatriated foreigners, who were either driven from their country for crime, or attracted hither by the large bounties offered during tlm Rebellion. Of these, l'robst and Haddopp are examples. Improper Training of Youth. This fruitful source of crime, as referred to by Judge Lud low, is notorious to the press and pulpit, which are the main correctives of public sentiment, independent of the law. I need hardly remark that no editor or teacher, religious or other wise, can be ignorant that juvenile vagrancy and idleness, added to night training in tho streets, will breed crime. Why is there not, then, a publie sentiment established that will warrant a police officer in arresting every child or youth found in the streets after nightfall.' Prudent, thoughtful parents do not permit these liberties to their children; and others should not be allowed such a school of vice. On this point yon justly say, some children have no homes worth the name. Then let publie benevoleiico furnish evening assemblies to finch, combining amusement and instruction. Cannot our Christianity follow its Great Master ill spirit by an institute of this sort? Destruction of the "Apprenticeship System." This is a terrible evil, a reform by the rule of inversion, and it has nearly all come to pass within the past generation of thirty years. The l'ress, the Pulpit, and tho Legislature should co-operate to living ns back to the habits of the good old times when a boy's master was not a "loss," but stood for his father. The race of boys is extinct, and as a consequence, the quality of reverence is only found when imported. This theme suggests a solemn responsibility as resting on teachers f schools and seminaries. In this trait tho untutored Indian is wiser than we, for he always reverences age. Lax Administration of the Law. When the administration of the criminal law is put into the Jiands of a man's neighbors, and offenses are tried by summary process, and. the contrivances of straw-bail and quibbling delays are laid aside or when lawyers are all employed as publie functionaries, to admi nister jvistiee like our judges, at 'the public expense then that blind divinity will walk straight to her object, as she did in California under the "Vigilance Committee," and we shall hear no more complaint that "big rogues go nnwhlpped of justice." The Grim Evil, Poverty. U is not more true that, when two at once ride a-horseLaok, one of them must ride behind, than that, where a few grasp all tho wealth of a community, the many must be poor. The governing power, the Legislature, has no right to be indifferent to the pe.cuniary state of tho citizen. It has no more right to turn out together upon the arena of life, nngoverned, the sharp and rapa cious with the confiding and bimple, than it lias to say to the powerful and muscular, 'There are the young and feeble, do with them as you think fit!" If such a man as A. T. Stewart, of New York, commanding the use of forty millions of money, which is but a Government creation for common use, can go into the market when ho pleasotli, and after "bear ing the market" for a fortnight, buy muslins at two cents per yard less than they can be fabricated, and in a week after, by "command ing the market," bull them up five cents on the 3-ard, and then sell out, having cleared a million, then it is folly to grieve over the "grim evils of poverty." It is the business cf the Government, however, to limit both great wealth and great poverty, for they are lioth evils. It is the duty of law to see that the dollar which the poor man earns to-day, and which ho apparently consumes when he eats his frugal meal, shall not rise in tho form of capital to-morrow, to dispute with his children for the bread that lies on their table. Poverty is a terrible source of demoralization and crime, and the best cure for it is ' enforced and protected industry on the one hand, and public endowment on the other. The same tteneficence that has clothed every poor raw's child with the right of education, could endow liim with others, much better assured than the "homestead" or the "three hundred dollar exemption." The present live per cent, collateral inheritance tax upon descending overgrown estates, suggests a mode of raising funds to endow tho many, "lest they be poor and steal, and take the name of God in vain." Prov. xxx, 9.) The. Great Ki ll of Intemperance. This is the monster evil, more prolific and hideous than Satan's bin and death, that kept ward at the gates of hell. This is the mother vice of our civilization. It requires a twofold remedy, either of which, or both combined, would nearly remove it in a generation. Its main shelter from popular wrath is the law; it is licensed, and "regulated" by statute. Sweep these laws away, and put the traffic on its own merits, at common late, before the courts, and no man could uffbnl to sell the broth that breeds crime. ' Give tho victims of the busi ness the same remedy that travellers have against railroads, and as was said before, no man could afford to sell; and if nobody sold, few would drink; but, if public sentiment still favors "license," then let those only who prefer to Bell, and those who want to drink, take ant' license for tho same just as the owners of dogs do in-ninny f our counties, the license-money going"'to pay the innocent collateral sufferers, as in the case of the dogs and the heep. This species of jurisprudence is not unknown to our legislators. Such a scheme would leave the sober non-drinking part of the people in no way chargeable for the evil, and make every "tub stand on its own bottom," which is not the caso at present. It would not be long before respectable people would find that it "did not pay," and so they would quit the practice. The mischief of the present sys tem is that it is assumed that a majority want things as they are, and all are held responsible for it. 7 fie Social Evil of Prostitution, This is organic, and wants an organic cure. The pul pit and the press must boldly hunt tho sources of the evil, amongst which is tho perversion of the sexual instincts. Tho history of monasti cism, or religious celibacy, teaches that men and wom n were intended for each other, and we only separate tho sexes at a fearful sacrifice in rnoials. First. Tho separate school system tdiould be extirpated root and branch, and the sexes always kept together while being edu cated. Second. The law should encourage matrimony by positive laws, such as the en dowment of marriage, say, by the bestowmcut of one or two hundred dollars to each couple who marry not later in lite than thirty. The prude and the shallow-brained may smile. Thinking men know, notwithstanding, that pov erty, like a gaunt spectre, has broken up many a virtuously formed "match," consigning the parties to pollution of nanwless kinds. Third. Society, by its pride ami folly, compels hun dreds to live in celibacy lwcause the means of living is grasped by others. They cannot ajf'ord to marry; and so skulk into secret im purity, or rush into promiscuous licentious ness both ending alike in misery, crime, and death. Mr. Peabody, like a wise man, is scattering his wealth as God scatters the rain and the sunshine; but with the mass of over-wealthy it is not so. Twenty per cent, of the Mr. A. T. Stewart's estate, when he parts with it at death, would leave his heirs twenty millions at least, and of itself constitute an endowment fund that would do more to put down lewdness in New York city than all the police officers that could be mustered. Marriage is God's institu tion, and prostitution the product of "high civilization" in cities. Fourth. Editors, preachers, teachers, and all the in fluential classes should cease to allude to marriago as a joke, but as quite as serious a duty as life itself, and as momentous in its issues ns death. When all these things are done, such inquiries as you propound may no longer be pertinent; but now they demand constant discussion. M. A. A Young Kngllst Nobleman Sent to Prison. The London Telegraph, tells .the story of a ni eritrd punishment: "Lord Ernest Vane Tempest there i3 a curious appropriateness in his name is a very unhappy youns? man who belongs to a very un happy old family. He has long been an outlaw, not of the jolly greenwood tree description, but of a more prosaic character. In fact, his only resemblance to Robin Ilood consisted in the fact that both gentlemen objected to tbe sheriff, and especially to his officers. Ten years and a half ago Lord Ernest then a minor, but already ex pelled trom his regiment met an officer in the same gallant corns, who was standing in St. James' street, and affably conversing it was after sunset with a lady of his lordship's ac quaintance. For reasons best kuown to himself Lord Ernest addressed his quondam comrade as a coward and a blackguard, supplementing and emphasizing those cnereetic words by spitting in his face. The othet officer does seem to have btn rather vexed at that form of address, though, on the whole, he bore his injuries with Christian patience, and nobly abstained from warlike reprisals. Nemesis is slow, but sure. "Lord Ernest returned to England from ltis outlawry; he expressed his sincere regret for the outrage he had committed; but he was not to be allowed to get off scot free. In the Court of Queen's Bench yesterday, Mr. Justice Black burn, observing that a tine would not be a real punishment to a man in Lord Ernest's position, sentenced him to be imprisoned for three calendar nioutbs. The offense was committed a long time ago, and possibly the culprit ha3 repented; but we cannot complain of the deci sion. Such a sentence will henceforth hang in tcrrorem over the head of fashionable yoiing ruffians who would not mind paying a fine, but wbo have a strong objection to being locked up. From this point of view we are bound to com mend Judge Blackburn's firmness. "The case is worth notice also from another point of view. After such a story, duelling must indeed be considered dead, 'tiir,' said au indignant husband to bis reckless friend, 'you have abused my hospitality, you have kicked me down stairs, aud you have kissed my wile bfiore my lace. Beware, sir I A lew more such outrages, aud. by Jove, you will rouse the British lion!' Lord Ernest called the other gentleman a coward and a blackguard, and then spat in his lace. A few more outrages might possibly have roused the British lion; out tne gentleman deserves our highest admiration for the moial courage which he has displayed in only prosecuting his assailant in the Court of Queen's Bench. Decidedly, the Millennium is at hand !" Kapoleou In Greek. A chapter of Paris gossip in the Loudou L'-jd contains the following: "At the faubourg they are just now fond of Greek and anagrams, Iiere is a fair sample: N apoleon. A poleon. P oleon. O Icon. L eon. E on. O n. "They tell you that every one of these words is a Greek word, that their whole forma a Greek sentence written in this order: Napoleon on o Icon leon eon apoleon poleon, and that the sen tence means in English: 'Napoleon, being the lion of the people, was marchiog on destroying the citicB.1 " ROOFIIMO u u u OI.O Ml INGLK KOOl-ri (FLAT ORSTl'.EP) COVER i U 11 11 JOHN'S ENGLISH KOOK1NU CLO TH, And cornel with LIQUID GUTl'A 1'KHCItA PAINT, iiiiikli'K them period ly water-proof.
