TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 18G8.
The City Finances.
Wi publish this afternoon the annual flUt
ment or the finanoes of Philadelphia, which i
prepared by the City Controller for the asUt
anoe of the Finance Committee of ConnolU iu
fixing apon the tax rae. Every taxpiyer ia
the city should istuiy this etateinent carefully,
for It ooEoerna hia best interests aud apptal.-i
rery forcibly to hi) pocket.
The total estimate of the expanses of th
oity government for the year 1809 is Ai by
the Controller at $7,830,898. The estiinta
of the expenses of 1808, made id Spietn W,
1807, readied $7,380,743, an ainotiut leas by
4141,155 than those for the coming year.
When these estima'es went before Cduuoiia
they were cut down to 5,188,574 in th aggre
gate. This sum, however, was found to bs
instiflioient, and adiitional appropriation for
the prfeeut year, np to November 1, atmii'it-
to 11,539,705, were reijuire l, rnouln tin
aotoal appropriations for 18(JS npto$li,7-8,3U9.
This sum Etill Ml $001,374 below the estiinite'1
for the year, and is $1,102,527 belov the esti
mates for 18G9. Although the estimttel ex
penses for the coming year are so largely iu
exoess of the actual appropriations for 13J3,
in several departments there is a marked da
crease, among these cases being the folio -viu:
Police appropriations for 1863 . $1,103.(502
Estimates for 1809 . . . 80 J, 2 15
Deoreate .... $207,357
We fear that, in this instance, the hops of
a deoreased expenditure will prove delusive.
The aggregate appropriations for 1307 in this
department amounted to $974,803; while tin
estimates for 1S08 reached $875,847 only. But
the aotnal appropriations for 1S08 ran up to
$1,103,002 an increase of $128,739 as com
pared with the appropriations of 1807, an I of
$227,755 as compared with the estimates for
1808. With this unreliable character of the
polioe estimates before us, we can scarcely
cxpeot to see a decrease of $207,357 iu the
expenditures of the coming year, uuless

Here again we fear there will be a djlu-ion,
nclesa Counoils should display thu most
eareful scrutiny of the bills brought before
them. The appropriations for 1807 amount-id to
Only $451,989, and the estimates for 13;I3 t
only $345,817, which Utter sum, as will be
perceived, fell $551,944 short of the am r ial
aotually required. As the great improve
ments under way at the Fairmount IVw
Works are far from beiug complete, we d mbt
Whether there will be a decrease of over Uilf
a million of dollars in the expenses of ti.s
department.
Two other large items of decrease are em
braced in the City Solicitor's and City Ion
Boat Departments. In the former, $125,902
were appropriated this year for the paymsut
of the League Island meadow awards; aul ia
the latter $106,500 for the new Ice 11 ut, both
of them being expenditures of an extra rnli
nary character.
Among the inoreased expenditures contem
plated are the following:
Department of Street CleaaiDg, . $10,200
" Highways, . . 73,0Jo
" Guardians of Poor, . 14,233
. Lighting City, . 74,120
" Publio Schools, . 52,400
The total liabilities of the oity for the year
1869, inoluding the estimated expenses of the
different departments at $7,830,893, amount
to an aggregate of $12,389,280. Of this sum,
$2,208,382 is to be charged to warrants out
standing on the 1st of November, and $1,200,
000 to warrants which will probably bn dravn
prior to January 1, 1809. It is also estimated
that epeoial appropriations amounting to
$500,000 will be oarried forward to 1809.
To meet this enormous demand, the city
has aotual aud estimated assets amounting to
$3,706,053, leaving abalanoe of $8,622,727, to
be provided for by taxation. Aocordiog to
the new assessment, $402,058,627 of property
is subject to taxation for city purposes. To
meet the demands of the municipal govern
ment a full rate of $2 00 and an average rate
of $1-912 will be neoessary, the amount thus
to be realized being $8,801,735 which is
$239,009 in excess of the amount required'.
In this oonneotion we have occasion to notion
an example of bad faith on the part of the
Demoeratio members of Councils. Included
In the statement published elsewhere were
appropriations for permanent improvements
to the following amounts:
For the Water D'partiiK-tit JSI0.no;)
" Ieane Isliiinl A Wui-tls 47..00 t
" City loo bom loO.OOJ
Total 51 4ii,ooo
The bills appropriating these amount ex
pressly stated that they were to be finally met
by the pioceeds of loaua to be authorized
thereafter for that purpose. The Democratic
members of Councils assented to this proposi
tion and vottd for the appropriation, with
the general understanding that the lou con
templated in them were to receive their sup
port. Hut when the loan bills were sub
mitted, the Demoeratio members of Sj-
leot Council arrayed themielvM in
opposition, and defeated the measures, as the
Republican lacked one vote.of the requisite
two-thirds. If these contemplated loans had
been, or should hereafter be, authorized, the
amount required to be raised by taxation
during 18C9 will be deoreased to $7,177,727, to
meet which a full rate of taxation of $165
will be sufBoient, instead of the $2 otherwise
required, realising $7,309,954, which would be
$132,227 in exoess of the amount required.
The Path in Which the KepuulUan Party
Must Walk.
Tub Republican party has triumphed through
principle. Its whole career has been a
living refutation of the fallacy that the people
of a republic Toted for men and not ideas
Starting as a weak, puny, and almost insignia'
rant organization, by its adhesion to what it
deemed to be the right, it attaint) I a foron
denied to its time-serving rival. Iu 1352, if it
can be laid to have existed at all, it was in a
manner so unkuown that its life was not re
cognized. In 1S5G it declared Its principles,
fought the enemy, and amazed none more
than iu elf at the strength it displayed. In
1800, still adhering to its doctrine of "justice
to all men," it won. From that day to this
it has retained the control of the 0vernnnnt
and stood steadfast by its grand doctrine of
universal justice. But the primary ilea ou
which it started in its career has not, through
out all its continued triumphs, Htoo l still, it
has grown with its growth. Like the party,
t baa btootne developed, and has been a
guiding stc.r which led its followers in the
paths ther knew not of at starting. In its first
Presidential campaign its battle shout was
oppohition to further territorial extension
o( slavery. It did not even strike at the
existing wrong. It sought but to oheok it in
the future, aud keep it within bounds. But a
Ligber power destined an extension of thisdoc
trine. The war made us look towards the
abolition of the evil, and not to its restraint.
It taught us to look at the wrong square in
the ftioe, and to consider it in all its hideous
proportions. With inspection came action,
ot'd ekvery ceased to exist. We then went
further still. We declared in favor of restor
ing the late slaves to perfect liberty, and we
have given them the ballot. In all the great
stnps in advance which we have taken, we
have been impelled by necessity. Freedom
came, not when it was desired by a majority
of the party, but whtn it was found essential
to the subjugation of tha Rebellion. We were
forced into it against our will. So also with
suffrage. Had the Rebels not been so bitter
against the Union after their defeat, they
would have been restored to all their old
lights without the addition of one black voter.
But by their persistent treason they rendered
negro suffrage a neuesity. From these
lesbons of the pst what are we to learn to
day f Can the Republican party stand still
ou its march, and let suffrage be given to
the black in Virginia and be denied to him in
Pennsylvania ? We think not. The same
inevitable destiny which caused it to take all
of its modt important steps will in time
cause it to be consistent, aud give to the
blacks in Pennsylvania the same privileges
postered by those across the Southern border.
Consistency, that great arbiter of all party mea
suiei?, demands of us the saorifioe of preju
dice to the end, and it will not be long before
the entire luDd will see the same uniform
principles prevail. We may not wish for it,
we may be opposed to it, but the option is
taken away, and we must walk as the spirit
leads us, as did the prophet of old. Tne
mission of the Republioan party will not be
finished until it has given perfect freedom
to all.
Crow's Pretensions to the Senatorship.
We have little faith in the success of the
efforts which are being made by some of our
contemporaries to convince ties legislators and
people of Pennsylvania that Oalusha A. Grow
is a pre-eminently proper person to represent
this Commonwealth in the United States
Senate. Mr. Grow has a fair reoord, and is a
man of fair talents, but we can truthfully say
of bim "only this, and nothing more." Hi is
largely indebted for the prominence he has
acquired to a series of fortuitous aooidents
His first introduction into publio life is due to
the fact that he was a protege of David Wil
mot, who was a great man in Israel, and a
power in the land. After serving with dis
tinction several terms in Congress, Wilmot
successfully exerted his potent iniluenoe to
confer the fcuccession'upon Mr. Grow, who
owed bis nomination and election
chiefly, if not exclusively, to the
favor of the author ot the famous
Proviso. Both Wilmot and Grow were origi
nally Democrats, and in 1852 they both cor
dially sustained the election of General Frank
lin l'.eroe. The passage of the Kansas-Nebraska
bill, however, revived the anti-slavery feelings
of the Bradford district , and at once carried
Grow and Wilmot over into their proper posi
tion in the Republioan party. Grow subse
quently acquired some prominence in Congress,
partly from the great politioal revolution in
bis district (which was due chiefly to the
character of its citizens aud the labors of Wil
mot), and partly to a flitiouff encounter with
a fire-eater who had been indulging too freely
in fire-water. It is also claimed thit he
was the author of the Homestead bill, aud he
may be entitled to the credit of introducing in
Congress the particular measure which was
finally adopted, but the principle it embodies
was unquestionably advooated with great zeal
and ability by prominent politicians long before
Mr. Grow beoame its champion. In 1801 the
Legislature of Pennsylvania elected two United
States Senators, one to fill the f acanoy caused
by the resignation of Senator Cameron, anl
the o'her to serve a full term of six years from
lfcOl to 1807. For the latter Mr. Cowan was
chosen, and for the former Mr. Wilmot was
elected, the Republicans of the State thus
eviucing their appreciation of hia early, vigor
ous, and continuous labors to seonre freedom
in the Territories. When Mr. Wilmot'.
Urra expired, in 1803, the Democrats po--eessed
a majority on olnt ballot in the legis
lature, and Mr. Buckalew was elected.
Tbe new Senator to be ohoson In 18;i9 will
be Mr. Buckalew's suooessor, and Mr. Orow, in
aspiring for that position, aims to obtain what
are virtually Mr. Wilmot's Sanatorial
sboec, excepting the aocldeutal Demooratiu
majority of 1863. The State, however, will
scarcely prove as ready to acknowledge an
heirship to Senatorial honors as the Bradford
distiiot was to confer the Congressional m to tie
of Wdmot. Mr. Grow's injudicious use of the
patronage at bis disposal was a promioenc
cause of Lis defeat as a candidate for Congress
in 1802, aud tbe people have never since dis
playtd aDy extraordinary desire to withdraw
Lim from the pleasing sbad-s of privato lift.
When he was a oaudidale for Senator iu 1867
he received but a few votes in the
Senatorial caucus. In 1883 when he eu lea
vored to become the Pennsylvania caudidttt
for the Vice-Presidency, he fared no better iu
the 8 1 ate Convention, as he was ouly able to
muster a meagre array of supporters. As the
friends of Curtin desired to seoure an earnest
advocacy of his Vice-Presideulial pretensious,
they conferred upon Grow the honor of aatiug
as Chairman of the State Central Co nmittee
in the late oauvass, mainly for the purp e of
harmonizing the party aud seouiiug his co
operation at Chicago. Whilo he gained pro
minence from this position, we euppise
nobody will allege that ha materially lull
enctd the results of the October and November
elections in Pennsylvania by his p4rs0a.il ex
eitions.

Our Population aud the llccent Vote.
Tub vote oast in this city aud State at the
recent election may ha takeu as a safe b isis of
tie population of both at the present time.
The November vote of the Slate, exclu iicg
the illegal votes of -the Third and Fourth
wards of this city, which were rejected by
the Return Judges, reached a total of 655,002,
or 2507 in excess of the vote of Ootobr. This
event does not always happen in Pennsylvania,
since there is usually a decrease iu the inte
rest manifested by the yeople after the State
election in October has shown the relative
strergtb of the parties, and thereby rendered
the November election a mere formality at the
best. This was strikingly manifested in 1860,
when the aggregate vote poiled iu October
reai bed 492,042, with a Republican majority
of 32,164; while the aggregate vote of Novem
ber, in the same year, decreased to 470,442,
the Republican majority being 50,013 over the
three opposition electoral tickets. Taking
the highest vote each year, tha following
table shows the rate of increase in the aggre
gate vote of the State:
Yur, Vo'e.
1HJ.S : .Jf7 u.a
1854 k8 it7
WM. i. Ill
hl 4!UliU
18H4 bTi 717
IHliK Ooo a)i
18U-b8 .
This comparison shows th it the increase iu
the vote between 1860 and 1808 has not been
unprecedented, falling below that from 1852
to 1850. It may therefore be taken as a fair
criterion of the increase in the population of
the State since the census of 1S60, when it
3tood at 2,900,215. The increase since then,
accoiding to the increase in the vote, has been
959,051, giving a total population at present of
3,805.260.
The vote of Philadelphia in October, 1800,
for members of Congress, was 81,908, nearly
5000 in excess of the vote for President iu
November following. Taking the highest vote
of the year for the basis of our calculation, au
increase of 39,443 ia shown by the vote of Oc
tober last, 121,441. This is equal to a per
centage of 43, This would indicate a popula
tion of 830,983, an increase of 271,454 over the
population of 1800, which aggregated 505,529
This result may be slightly in exoess of the
truth, but, beyond all doubt, there Is a popu
lation in Philadelphia of at least 800,000, and
we doubt very much if the permauent popu
lation of New York exceeds it.
