The Selections of Oar Judges. ,ir Courts, on Saturday exerolaed the deli til diitr rested In them by the aot of the Xegliilatare,and announced their appointments Of the members of the Board of School Con trollers. The selections made, taken alto gether, are each as to merit tbe warmest Commendation, although, in several instanoes Old members of great worth were omitted, Vrhile once or twice we see that some were p-etaiued whose places might well hare been filed with new men. We are glad to see that juch men as Edward Shippen and Dr. Neb Isger were retained, but regret that the gppointmerfls could not have been so arranged as to keep directors like Messrs. Yanghan and Elkin in the places they have so well filled. The now Board, however, is in finitely the Superior of the old one, and we hope that It will not only be new in name, but in all JU acts. What h neoessarj is intelligent, cdaoated men to direct the working of our System of sohools. We hope that the Pre sident of the new Board will exercise great pare In the appointment of the committees. If all pains are taken, and each member laced in that position for whioh he is peou jarly fitted, the energies will all be brought Mtplay, and none be lost by misapplication. Jiua, there are gentlemen who are admirably ltt( d for work of a particular kind, such as Appropriations and the like, who are worse jLna useless on a committee having charge of Jhe highest Institution of oar common sohool System. In the distribution of duty, the Utmost care should be exercised to place the tight man in the right plaoe. The advantage of vesting the power of ap pointment with the Courts is evident already, ftnd is yet more obvious by comparison. If ire glance at the class of men appointed Con trollers, and at the class elected by Councils to act as Directors of Girard College, we grow eager for the yet further extension of .the powers of the Courts. If it were possible .to so construe the will of Mr. Oirard as to ftllow thia change, we would be strongly in favor of the attempt. Whether or not it is possible, remains to be determined by the law. It we could have secured as College Direotors Such, mea as are to be our Controllers, the shameful insult to a gentleman ' lately perpe trated would not have disgraced the College. As the Board now stands, there is no such .thing "as reliability. We would not be sur prised if President Allot went the way of his predecessor, with no more notioe than was given to him. The little taste of power which the Direotors enjoyed has made them eager lor more. Already there are rumors that the President is too old, and we would not be Jnuoli astonished at his expulsion before many Jnontha have passed. Should it happen, the old l-ule, "to do unto others as you would be done fcy," may become singularly applicable in lie case of the President. Until some re orm is made in the manner of appointing the directors, we have no great hopes that the Charitable designs of the founder will reach hat wide sphere of usefulness which he sought JO earnestly to seoure for his institution. The Greatness of Little reople. It is probably known to most people that there is situated on the western shore of Dela ware bay a narrow strip of land which once Upon a time was embraced within the limits tt the domains of the Proprietary of Pennsyl vania. But by some freak of our forefathers, this narrow strip cf territory was finally Organized into a separate province, and in due Course of time it became one of the sovereign Etates of the Union. In vulgar parlance, as well as in official documents, it is known as the State of Delaware; but the aborigines take excessive pride in at y ling it the Diamond J5tate. These aborigines, who in 18G0, num bered but 112,216, consider themselves a pecu liar people, in the essential Scripture sense of the term, and as being xrore highly favored by Jleaven than are morl of the communities of earth. In one respect they certainly are, for their beggarly or hundred thousand have an equal representation in the Senate of the United States with the three millions and a lalf of people who are bo unfortcnate as to Iwell in the State upon their northern border. Impressed with a lively sense of their own liiterio importance, the Delawarians affect 4e profoundeBt admiration for the past. In rfuth, they may be accounted the most emi nently conservative race upon the continent. In the year 1795, for example, the members of the State Legislature were duly apportioned among the three counties into which their magnificent domain has been divided from .time immemorial, and this apportionment is Etlll in foroe, one-third of the present popula tion, as a oonsequence, having as great a voioe In the counsels ef the Commonwealth as aU the rest put together. To suggest a modifica tion of the system is to be guilty of treason gainst the Diamond sovere'gnty. J5nt this is Hot the only fashion in whioh they hug the past to their bosoms. On Saturday morning, five men were placed in the pillory at 1W Castle, and on the afternoon M the same day, ten more, six jf them being black and the remainder white, jrere tortured with the lash. This highly Jdifying process was witnessed by a large oon ourse of the aborigines, men and women, Jv and girls, mingling in the throng. The Children were in great glee, and rent with THE DAIIA KVKNlKG TELEGRAPH- PHILADELPHIA, MONDAY, their glad shouts that portion of the heavens which was so fortunate as to be above them at the time, while a drurjken brute reeled about he scene and enlivened the spirits of the abo rigines by the singing of hymns. The misera ble wretches, who were thus given a foretaste of the Inferno to which they are forever doomed, had been guilty ef the presumption of offend ing the majestio sovereignty of the Diamond State by the violation of its laws. The soil of Delaware is too sacred to sustain the walls of a prison, and so its criminals are turned loose upon the world, but not unwhipt of Juatloe. It takes but little time for a civilized Ameri can citizen to express his opinion of the man ner in which the Delawarians are accustomed to vindicate their laws,' hut we find ourselves at a loss for a word whioh will give full vent and force to our feelings. The most that we can say is, that in more than one respeot the State of Delaware is a disgrace to the whole country. The Execution of the Fenians. Thbeb Fenians were hung on Saturday. This, too, in despite of all the threats, prooessions, and declarations of sympathy and oaths of vengeance. We are sorry for the exeouted, but cannot but think that the Queen was jus tified in allowing the full punishment of the law to be meted out to them. Their crime was great. They had attempted rebellion in the midst of England. Previous leniency had ap parently been construed as fear on the part of the authorities, and again and again were the attempts made. It was necessary that some example should be afforded to deter evil doers in the future, and the example was made. We hope now that it will act as a salu tary warning to those over eager persons in onr midst who are wildly spending their money in a hopeless cause; and we feel well assured that it will deter Bimilar attempts in Great Britain. A Government whioh is ' not strong enough and stern enough to protect itself and punish crime is not worthy of a brave man's allegiance; and had England not acted as she did, she would have placed her self in the false position of fearing her rebel subjects. The cure was painful, but so was the disease. Thh Union Pacifis Railroad is progressing with almost marvellous rapidity, and we are assured that before the close of the present working season the highest point between the two oceans will be reached. The track has Just reached the base of the mountains, five hundred and twenty-five miles west of Omaha, and the remaining thirty miles between the present terminus and Evans' Pass, the highest point over which the road will pass, will be completed by January. The work of ascend ing the eastern slope of the mountain does not present any great engineering- difficulties, an' the grade is only eighty feet to the mil, while there are a number of ascents in the East with a grade of more than one hundred feet. Now that this great iron band, which will tend to draw the widely separated seotlons of the country so closely together, ia rarjidlr an. proaching completion, it is a matter of surprise to ns that the great work was not attempted ten years ago. Its advantages to every por tion of the country, commercially, politically, and socially, are so manifest and so great, that we are forced to watch its progress with oare ful attention. When the great highway of the nation is finally completed, the event will merit a universal rejoicing. SPECIAL NOTICES. For additional Special Notice tee the Third Ptge. 55gF" NEWSPAPER ADVERTISING.

OLAXTON, I "TP" fr? GREAT SAFE TEST, 1 " i A SHOUT HISTORY PROFESSIONAL SAFE-BURNING In Connection with the BOSTON STEAM PATENT." The Little Gamo Laid Bare. TIIK TANHKEIKHK :XI'iKI. Tlia Nigger In the Fence linoked Out A Short IH&tory of Professional Safe-burning, a tractised by the Boston Steam Patent Com party and their Agents in the Vicinity of Phila dclphia. Tbe movement began first by conspiring with the Secretary of the Agricultural Fair at Norrlslowa to buro Safes at the Fair. They rst prepared two Hales expressly tor the test, one made by Kvans ft Watson and one furnished by tbe Boston Company, male wllb six-Inch composition walls, intruding tbe paten1'. with Inner wood doors, end everything done for pro tectlon. The very first notice other Safe-makers ha! of Ibe burning, Mr. Longsore, Secretary, sends othe makers a written notice that Safes of different menu lecturers were to be tested on tbe Fairground oa the following Saturday, and that If each maker did no have his Safe on the around by Wednesd-tv m ,rmi from t-afos then made, other parties would iurnlso them. These notices were received on Monday pre vious, thus preventing other parties from preparing any Kale for a test but tbemselves. It was next ad vertlsed In the papers that the different makers were 'o burn Safes on Saturday at Norrlstown, and It was understood on the Fair ground that tb different makers were parties to tbe burning, when tbe fact was that before any notice was given tbey surreptitiously bought a safe from each maker for the express purpose, and bad them on the ground before tbe notice was given on lionday, knowing, of course that no Safe maker would accept such a one-sided prcpt elllon to text Safes. I arrived at Norrlstown soon after IS M. on Saturday. The burning was over I learned the Safes were mostly burned In the night aLdlwnstold that Lill e's Safe d or was fastened back by a wocden wertie alter tbe fire was over, I being neither latchfd noi lecked. I noticed that tbe Pales on either side cf the Steam Patent Sates were much harder burnt-d than they were, tbe Iron being warped, twisted, and burnt very muoh more than the steam safe. I noticed also a good number of brloks thrown under the Boston steam ', no doubt to pre vent the beat acting on the bottom. I earue at once to tbe conclusion that tbere was a "nigger in the fence' a little game a Yankee trick, w,.ich should be ex posed. I notloed. al o. tnat the composition walls to the steam safe, Including water oans, were about six Inches, with an Inner wood d ror at'ached to book cane, etc. I decided to have one of Llllle's safes got up with six-inch composition walls and the aame Inner door, and to test It with thesteam rateut equally and fairly, both principles being equally protected and soon after announced to toe public that I pro. pored to test, on the 221 of Ootnber, Lillle's sfe with alx-luch comp-slilun wals.wltli the Boston Steam Patent, with walls the sains tblokness, and to test them thoroughly and fairly. I then gave Messrs. Evans ft Watson notice that they could furnlBh tbe best safe tbey could make on their principle, and tbat a committee oould be appointed In tbe usual way (to see that the test was fairly made , oi course). Evans ft WoUon announced their aooept- nce, but upon conditions whioh I would not accept, as I woula not allow the niacins ot tbe safes to burn in their hands, or that of an loexparienoed committee , as my wnoie object might be lost, that Is, to smoke out tbe nigger. I found I could not be ready on the 22d of October, on account of the burglar lest. I some days before the 22d postponed the test to take place on the etb of November, and then klated publicly tnat tbe safes would be burned In a furnace, thoroughly and fairly. Evans ft Watson, knowing tbat I would burn In a furnace, and would not leave that point to a committee, again announced their acceptance. I had tbe furnace prepared at my own expense. Oa tbe 6th I sent a polite note to E. ft W. that It was desirable to have the safe placed that afternoon In tbe furnace, to be able to finish It. Tbe verbal reply was, I could miud my business and tbey would theirs. The fur nace remained open for them until A. M. the next morning. They would not put their safe In the fur nace upon any terms whatever, but came there- pre pared to burn safs In tbelr usual way tbat Is. pro fessionally. Burn tbelr sate, prepared expressly for a test, wltb six-Inch composition walls, and all the- ex tras, with Llllle's Sate (having a three-inch composi tion wall), wltb tbelr di-luterested committee, and, though last, not least, tbelr Boston Company's pro fessional sale-bueaer. who travels tbe country, and Is employed expressly for that purpose and I aim.it be is a master In nks profession. He manipulates to great advantage. Be Is a magician. BUiz couldinet match him in Ai Une. Wby.be can burn the Steam Patent Safe for five bonrs, and uot even scorch fine shavings under Its bottom I It is clear Blitz Is non plussed. Tbe professional safe-burner Is abead. Stilt It Is all simple to tbe professional, and to others when tbe secret is out. N ow for the secret: 1. Tbe Wind being strong northwest', the two safes are set on a line ur east and west, Llllle's Safe west, the strong wind striking on the north and west side, thus shielding tbe Steam Pateut Salet- 3. A large quantity ot tine nhavlugs are paaked under the steam Sate, aud the fire l started, ana as soon as kindled a Urge ijuautiiy of wood laplaoed erect ou the north side ef the steam Safe (the only kid tbe wind could reach it at the hollow V, and packed so close as to slop sne draft, r acilou of tbe tire along the bottom. While tbe wood wait all ou lire ou the two sides and tha front of Llllle's. aud with the strong draft, 'he heat was iiemnudous. t. When the wood was. removed tbere was a very large bed of live coals piled up around and under Llllle's and a small quantity around the Steam sale, aud when Ibe water was tbrowu from tbe hose-pipe on the north side. and as Hie stream struck under the Slehin Patent Safe, a quantity of sliaviugs came nut unecorched on Hie Koulh side. What is the explana tion? Simply this shavings packed full uuder the bottom, sud wood packed so close, and so much of It on the north or windward side, the draft was choked and the lire could not burn at the bottom. I think, wlih this exposition, every caudld man pre sent win uuUeihtand wby the shavings were not scorched, 'and will see tbe Importance of having a pro fessional sale-burner to thoae whc make aale-burnlug a business. "But." says the professional, "did I not put under the Steam Patent Safe Hie largest quautlty of sha vings, and did I uot put around ll the larges: quantity ol wuwl T Did 1 not try my best to get the largest amount of beat uion It?" etc All fair upon Its (ace, but the small amount of coal and especially tbe uu scorched vhavlugs rise up like JJanuao't thoU, or tbe bloody hand, and be may well say, "Avauut, quit my slphl; let tbe rarfi bide thee; uerer sbake toy pory ttx-ki at me; out, ilomn'rl unit out I say I" But the u trorthtd thavinyi are tbere still, and tbere tbey will be f ortver. I now Introduce the certificate of a respectable young man , a 11 rem an employed hy Messrs. Evaos ft WaUou, as sucb, to watch the fire, to protect the hulldiuKs near by, ana to put out the fire and cool tbe Sales. Tbls certificate, 1 thluic, not only fully sustains my previous sluleuieuis, but shows the Immense ad vahluue in having a proltsasloual safe-burner to make tbe business a success: FIREMAN'S CERTIFICATE. I hereby certify tbat I wan employed by Evans ft Waisou as fireman, with the neoeasary apparatus for putting out tire at the Sale burning on the 6iu of No vember; that I was present during the burning of tbe Hales, and watched the progress of the U re very par ticularly, and the result 1 notlcod when the wcod wi.s removed from the Bales, I hat there was a very large amount of fine coals all arouud aud uuder Lll lle's Safo, a very small quantity about the steam Patent Safe, aud tbat there wera shavings not burned about Ibe Sale. I noticed, also, that (he wind blew strong from the northwest, and tbat Llllle's Safe bad a siiong draft upon H from tbe north and west side; that the dralt could not strike the Steam Sale only ou tbo north side. I i otlued, also tbat the man who at ended tbe tire was very particular to keep, during the tire, a large quantity ot wood ou the north aide of the Sale, standing up endwise, very cjmoact, wblch evidently choked up tbe draft and prevented tbe action f tbe fire near and along the bottom of the Sale. It Is my candid opinion -from the loomlnuor Hie :Safes In reference to the lud. from the way and meum r tbe tire was managed, from the fppearauoe of the wood when removed from Ilia Sates, aud the amount Of best and coals arouud each hafo at tbe time, also from a close observation of the appearauoa ofthetlreduiiugthe burning that Llllle's Safe was expwed to at leaxt twice the amount of beat as the nr;"w.pu"o,ut:," 1 h,,,tn w...th.

The maxl mum grade from the loot of the mountains to the summit ts but eighty feet to the mile, while that of many Kasiera roads Is over one hundred. Work In the rock-euttlngs on the western slope wll I continue through the wluter, and there Is now no reason to doubt tbat tbe entire grand Hoe to the Pa ciflo will be open for business In 1870. Tbe means provided for the construction of this Great National Work are ample. The United States grants Its Six Per Cent. Bonds at tbe rate of from $18,000 to $,000 per mile, for which It takes a tfcowi lien a seourlty, and receives payment to a largo ir not to tbe full extent of Its claim In sr vices. These Bocds are Issued ai each twenty-mile section Is finished, and after It has been examined bv United States Commissioners and pronounced to be In all re spects a first-olass road, thoroughly supplied with depou. repair-shops, statloas, and all the necessary rolling stock, and other equipments. Tbo United Biates also makes a donation of 12,800 acres ef land to the mile, wblch will be a source of large revenue to tbe Company. Muoh of this laud la the Platte Valley is among the most fertile In the world, and other large portions are covered with heavy pine forest, and abound in ooal of tbe best quality. Tbe Company Is also authorized to lisue It own First Mortgage Bonds to an amount equal to the Issue of tbe Oovernm. nt, aad no more. Hon, E. D. Morgan and Hon.

The authorized capital ol the Company Is ONE HUNDRED MILLI JN IOLLAR3, of which over five millions have been paid In upon the work already done. Earnings of the Company. At present, the proats of tbe Company are derived ouly from Its local traffic, but this is alreadr muoh more thsa sufficient to pay the Interest on all the Bonds the Company oan Issue, If not another mile were built. It la not doubted that when the road Is completed tbe through tratUo of the only line con necting Ibe Atlantic and Pacliio Btatea will be large beyond precedent, and, as tbere wM be no competi tion, It can alwa be done at profitable rates. It will be noticed that tbe Union Paciflo Radioed is In fact, a Government Work, built nnder the super vision of Government officers, and to a large exteat with Government money,. and that It bonds are issued under Government direction.
