On to IlitMinoml! 'an New Vork 7Wou of Saturday declares ita Jnvli.oIbleho.tilitjrto "all plans or ultimate l-esnmi'tion through graJual-oontraction," and Bays: "Wlillo wo bnsn resumption on tielthor px- Tirtnslon uor contraction, we woulil minor at pinpt It iioconipBiilt'il by a ipnili-r.ee expauslon tbu by D.v contraction wlmlever." We regard thin avowal as of ranch Import ance to the country. It is In marked contrast With the Tribune's past views, and we rejoice at its conversion aaearmatly as wedeplored the InUnr-ity of the invective with which it de nounced theclear-Bighttd Republican members of Congress who resisted Secretary McCul looh's ruinous policy of contraction. Judge lta doctrines of to-day by its former theories, and they are horribly immoral the doctriue Of the thief who promises to abandon his cri minal course when lie fchall have become Bufliciently rich by crime 1 This and a host of like delicate compliments were hurled daily &t the Republican delegation from this State because it resistel alike contraction or expan Bion, and strove to supply the vaouuua in the Volume of ourrenoy to be created by the with Irawal of compound-interest notes with an imount of greenbacks eijual to the amount of Die interest-bearing notes held by the banks IB part of their reserve. The country would be $100,000,000 richer Jian it is had it not been for the Tribune's 'On to Specie Payment" assaults on the ."Pennsylvania expansionists" and the Repub licans from the West who voted with them on financial questions. They said that contrac tion would destroy confidence, suspend labor, reduce the price while it diminished the pro duction of our staples, aud thus prevent or delay resumption. Heedless of all such sug gestions, the Tribune still oi ied ' On to Resump. tion via Contraction 1" "Thus, and thus only, dishonest Pennsylvania expansionists, can the Valuo of a paper dollar be nmde to equal that of one of gold," shouted the Tribune, and doubling or timid lueni'iers, iufl ueuced by its daily assaults and the lierceunss of its denun ciations, consented to the policy of contraction. The absurdity of this theory is abundantly illustrated by the followinc; paragraph from the Tribune's money article of Thursday last. Indeed, the demonstration is so perfect that it has oompelled the conductors of that journal to become the eo-laboru s of those it bo per. Bistently vililled: J'Amountof Legal tomlor nnd other Short Debt calling for LegHl-lendev counted Hi (Jurreucy, and the Price ol uoU. JlftiV.1l WW.

Nor Is it likely to be by coutrrtci Ion of l goi-tender not pre ceded by political harmony." The proposition this table presents is this: If the contraction of 45 per cent, of the cur rency puts gold tip 3 per cent., how much must we contract to enable us to resume Bpecie payments ? The answer to which is, that by this process you carnot reach re sumption except through universal bank ruptcy. In support of its views, the Tribune says: "We are making euormons quantities of cheese, and Ita cuiisurnpilon by llie litborttig claim, especially of Great Brlniii, Is rapidly extending. We have a cotton crop Just cointug forward, whlob even Ht I lie prKut, reduced prices, will bring 8100,000,000 In Europe, utter supplying our own wants. Our tobacco aud petroleum sell largely aud rpidiy abroad." We have no means at hand of ascertaining the comparative value of tobacco on the 12th of November, 1806 and 1867; but the whole Bale prloes of cheese, cotton, and petroleum In New York at those dates are a melancholy proof of the wisdom of those members who bad the courage to resist the persuasions of the Secretary of the Treasury aud the denun ciations of the Tribune. It now takes 120 pounds of cheese to pay as much of our debt as 100 pounds would then; it takes nearly two pounds of middling upland cotton to pay the sum one pound then paid ; and with two gallons of petrobuui we cannot now pay So much as we could then with one as the following, from a carefully prepared compara. live statement iu the Commercial Bulletin, troves: ISBIt, Cheese, Prime Faetory.

Factories are dosing, prices are declining, and the laborers of the country are living on their bard-earned savings Contraction Is produc ing bankruptcy, and we trust that Congress Vill, at the earliest day, prohibit the Secre tary of the Treasury from proceeding further In that direction. Meanwhile, we congratulate the country on the Tribune's conversion. The Mayor vs. The People. Vb have a very high regard for his Honor the Mayor, and are of opinion that hia judgment on most matters of publio interest to our citi zens is very generally correct; but we thtnk lie made a very great blunder when he re turned to Conncils, on Thursday last, hia veto f the bill to allow the property-holders on Uroad street, south of I'oplar, the privilege of widening their sidewalks to the same dimensions as those north of that street. The privilege was asked not alone by property-holders on that Btree but by bnndreds of others In that violnity, and we venture the opinion that nine-tenths of the citizens of Philadelphia most heartily concur In the request f the parties here alluded to. It la demanded a a great pnblio convenience lo the thousands of pedestrians who throDg its sidewalks on Sunday after noons and public days, tint to look at the few more fortunate ones in their vehicles drawn by fast horses, but for social min gling together on this every-day increas ingly attractive aud fashionable piomeuade, In reading tho veto of the M iyor, it would appear as though he was fearful tLat the peti tioners and Councils were endeavoring to ruin tho value of the property and the appearance of Uroad street, and that he was obliged to tome to the rescue of the property-holders, and prevent them carrying out their contem plated improvements, saying in effect: "I will take care of you, as you do not appear to know what you are about, or what you want; and I will see that you do not ruin yourselves and your improvements on what is to be the most beautiful street in the world, by permit ting you to carry out your mistaken notions upon this business. The fact is, I wilk judge for you." It may not be expected that certain of our city officials can open their eyes to any publio improvement or interest either of the city or of individuals if is found te interfere with their own or their friends interests. Therefore we suppose that it will be useless to attempt any improvements on South Broal street hich will in any way interfere with the pre sent fat contracts, until those in contemplation are finished. Let our citizens look at the improve ments as they now stand iu Broad street, above Poplar, where some of our public spirited gentlemen have been at work, with widened sidewalks, beautifying aud adorning that magnificent avenue but all this was done before these fat contracts were contem plated. What has been the result f Contrast the six squares north of Poplar street with the six squares eouth of Poplar, and estimate the present value with that before those line improvements were made. Who cannot notice at a glauce the difference iu favor of the value of the squares north of Poplar street, and the vastly increased beauty and publio accommodation ? Who doubts but that the publio would be vastly benefited by an extension of these improvements south ward, if holders of property were only per mitted to make thvm ? Hut we pnppose that this must all be ignored, bec ause iuterferijig with the present and contemplated coutracts which are for the enrichment of a few greedy specu lators and jobbers. The petitioners did not ask that Broad street should be decreased in width, but that south of Poplar street the ono hun dred and thirteen feet between the buildings Ehould be divided as north of Poplar, in such a manner as to acoomniodate tho greatest num ber. Surely the public convenience and re quirements are not to be sacrificed for the spe cial accommodation of the few who can afford to keep fast horses for exhibit!')!), with their splendid equipages, upon this the people's promenade. We trust his Honor and our Councils will not permit themselves to he swayed or influenced by the advice of inte rested parties, but that they will yet yield to the popular voice, and permit the beautifying and adorning of North Broad street to be con tinued. The Rev. Newman Halt,, D. D., of Loudon, created another sensation In our city pulpits yesterday. On our sixth page will be found reports of three of the sermons preached by him, and also of his lecture on "Missions to the Masses," delivered on Saturday evening. SPECIAL NOTICES.

Morehouse E CO. anu William Jones, and f 1 ui the quality of the tools, the linmeuse power ap plied, and the time employed, 1 can scaice y cou i tlve that It wonld be possible lor burglars to accom plish as much towards the entering of the safu Iu any time lliey have to operate, even It not disturbed by the uolbe Iroiu the siedge. CHAllLktt PARI! AM. TIIE RESULTS. In a review of the above statements and certio rates (the truth ol which I beyond cavil), the fol lowing facts are demonstrated In yond a ti lesdou: EiibU 'I bat Llllle's t hilled Irou bale will burn up twool th. Hieaut Puteui bates. one auer the other. the cuuijiositlou walls both being equal, and dill bs lit lor use. Second. Tht Llllle's Bala is thoroughly lire-proof beyond a doubt. T bird. That Llllle's Bare, as now mnde, Is proof aganifime arm, wedge, ana even siuage the only pructical Implements In the hands of burglars, and the evidence of Us superiority over all other burglar proof safes Is, that 110 other tuaker bud the conrideuce to eveu operate on LI. lie's, or place their own iu com pel 11 ion, the lest having been publicly annoiiu tej fur a lot g lime and iree to all to operate upou it, and w HI. out response. Hie object of the fire proof test was not to show that Llllle's bale wa. lire prool. '1 bat has been proved in hundred of cases In tires the most Intense-even iu great conliagiatlons hut to ascertain what advau InKes the Ronton bleam l'aient has over the emmon method of tilling bale, and ihe result shows mint cleailytbat lis only advantage li ibe extra thick ness of the walls, if the tent is fairly made. As to Ibe thickness of walls, ll '', no more 10 make ihe ciiiiiionltlon walls six Inches than three m hes bu heiV-liich wall In a lu,l sls-d Kafe cm- "act-" lie room Inside about one ball aud the buyer iiava "W)tor the ame room with alx In h wail that he would ael lorliWl with a three-lncli wall; and If a thiee li ch wall will stand any lire required, as Llllle's r-a'e will, then llie extra thicsuena t m-lwt. Rut 11 is no lest lo plnce a Ihree-lm h agaiust a six-inch wall, a' 11 e lat'er would stand a longer fire than two of the 01 hers, b in bales made Just alike. The kind of bale wanted Is a siitlicent fire proof to slai.d any best required, aud Mill more a thorough luiruliir proof. 1 he stal latins shoat leant tin Ism loss by burglary from "ales toll by ID, and Llllle's Is the ni.lv pracilcsi fire and burgiar-prool fafe made at auy iirlce Ihe nisjnniy cu atiord to pay.
