Afnallllllr for CrlmliiHla in Enemy of lnbllc curlljr. Tbhbi U a great deal of truth and maoh oosu mem sense in the charge delivered l Ja.lga Ludlow to the Grand Jar of the Qaarter Ses sions term for February, the substanoe of which wo published yesterday. The Judge apok-j truly when he Bald, "No sooner is a man con vioted of the highest orime known to the law, than every effort is made to screen htm from s Joat punfahment." Tula is indeed so, aul to suoh an extent Is this maudlin sensibility for oruuinals being carried, that it seems hih time that public attention should be called to the evil. It is a fact, within the everyday ex. perieuoe of suoh of our readers 83 octuipy any position of prominence in either the reli gious, oharitablo, or even political world, that an almost daily application is made to them to Bigu a pytUlou for a pardon. The extent to whic'-i the spirit of aiding convicted criminal is car ried is shown by the fact that Uovermr Geary in his message states that in sixteen hun dred cases during ISiM was he asked to use the prerogative of clemency. It is time for the signers of these petitions to pans? au I think of the consequences of their being granted. When justice and mercy are con founded one with the other, the formar givvj way, and the result la a wak administration Of the law, a disregard of the rights of persons and of property, and a carnival of ever speoies of crime. Instead of thero being any further extension of charity aul pity towards criminals, it is more appropriate for us to dr.rr yet more stringently the reins of the law, au 1 let it be known to each evil-doer that no inter ferenee of false sympathy cau sar him froai a Unt doom. We favor a more rigorous system of im prisonment and an inexorable execution of all Bentences pronounced against any crimi nal in our city. During tae past year tUvr has been a fearful amount of crime perpetrate 1 In our midst. Since tue 24. h of March last, there have been thirteeu homicide c&flea trie 1 in the Quarter Sessions of the county, au l 043 minor bills have boen disposed of. This is a terrible record, aud one which shows th u in the futnre, if crime i.s to be checked, ex. amples must be made of tho.se heretofore foua 1 guilty. We are glad to kuow, from the p tb Uehed records, that the Goveruor of the Slut has no sympathy for those who have broke j the laws, and cannot bo moved from his duty by the supplications for pity either of the criminals or their soft-hearted friends. Do people appreciate the request they are making whea they sign a petition for pir. donf They are asking that an enemy of law and a proven oriminal be freed from punUU ment, and that there shall be onoe more re leased and let loose npon society one who has proven himself a felon. In this there U ui spark of justice. Were the consequences limited to the one man free 1, after a fair trial, the effect would be comparatively small. Bat by his case dozens of others are incited to misdeeds. The pardoned man goes bauk iu nine oases out of ten to his old associates, ani by Lis release excites them to fresh deeds of lawlessness. The pardon of a oouple of murderers now convioted woull, in onr opinion, lead to twioe that number of homicides within a year. An impunity is all that is deBired by these men to BtimuUt them to crime. We are, therefore, at a lm to eee how any thinking citizen who has ia teresta at stake can affix an indisorimla itu signature to any petition presented him. Nor can we Bee why any one should ask thtt tu judgment of the law be set aside in any cases, unless he be Interested personally in the pri soner. Where is its logio or its jaatioe? A man knowingly and deliberately violates a law; for instance, takes humau life. What grounds can he lay to escape punishment f Judge Brewster, ia delivering the opinion of the Court in the Twltohell case, well put the issue when he said: "While Mrs. llill was sent to her last aooount without the opportunity of one short prayer, the law has been jealous of every right which the presumption of innooence coal I throw around you." The comparison of fates is one of wider significance than the case to which it is particularly applied. It extends to nearly every case of crime. Why, then, should justice not be meted out to the man, as be has meted out wroug to his victim ? The law is sot too severe, it is too lenient. But in other oases thaa those of life and death do we see the mildness of punishmeut' In imprisonment there is little to fear ex cept confinement. Judge Ludlow Bays: "Now ills a well-ltunwii t-tol that theiuiaites Cf-our County Prison aud I'tulleiiUary, In Hits county at leant. l!v he'.ier 11111 trie honest, in dustrious poor of 1 tin community.

IrresistlUe logio of facts Is making man tur.nL orri with Judge LudlOW. The system of reformatory prisons for adults has 1., .,s tt.u nnnclnslon seems Inevitable that instead of reforming the 00a- vlots by kindness we are demonstrating the need of punishment for crime. In view of all the circumstances of our olty, the increase of crime and the daring reoklessness of wrong doers, we demand that the public safety shall not be endangered through the tender sensi bilities of the would-be philanthropists with whom rhiladelphia appears to be overrun. We call for no more pardons, mild Bentences, or releasing of fines, so far as any oriminals within onr county are concerned, for some time to come. The Alb!mr Trou ty It nvcrily Jflhnnon. A ti:w tars ago a Senator of the United States (John P. Hale) was charged, in a New England newspaper, w ith receiving a fee of gO.000 as counsel for a prisoner accused of offenses against the Government. Ia making a per sonal explanation iu regard to this affair in the rVnate, he acknowledged that the allega tion was well founded, aud he justified himself by the plea that none of his rights as a law yer were forfeited by his service as a Sena tor, except in cases where he was forbidden to act as counsel by an express law. lie Btated, however, that as he feared there might be some impropriety in his double sarvloe, he concluded to consult his friend and Senatorial colleagne,Unverdy Johnson, and he accordingly propounded to that distinguished gentlomau the question whether it was wrong for a Senator to defend a person imprisoned in the Old Capitol on a charge of fraudulent prao- ticea on the War Department. The reply, as given by Senator Ilale, was as follows: "Air. Jot-lison looked at me s If bo tuo-jiht " as rather irrcn to ark moh- a qutMton, and re T'lleii with mtn'. promptness ana great emp'n Hie, 'Not tho least objection under heaven.' Well,' aid I.

A few mouths ago a story wer.t the rounds of the press to the effect that Rsverdy John sen, in actiut; as a sprial commissioner or agtnt for the !ovirnient at Now Orleans dining tbe war, uianagi'd to discharge his public duties in a maur.tir so acceptable to parties who bad heavy pwuniary interwsts involved, that be receive. I from thiu a very largo fee for comparativfly unimportant ser vices subsequently rendered aa their private counsel. These incident aie of no public importance mites they ei Vr to iihistrjile the character of the gen; Icukiu charged with the responsi ble duty of rtprtsontia he American Ociv vettimvUt at the Cjurt of St. James. The old style of ambassador was defined to be a man stnt into foivln countries to promote, at all hazards, fcveu to tho extent of downright 'alf ideation, tie interests of his native land. If anbo3y is wicked enough to sup pose tbat the negotiator ou the part of the United States, of the Alabama treaty, carries Lis notions of the privileges of counsel so far as to bold tbat there is no indelicaoy or im propriety in acting in the double capacity of minister and attorney for claimants on either side of the water, he must also be ready to believe that the office of ambassador has been invested with new attributes, and that it offers marvellous opportunities lor combining a lucrative professional practice with the occu pancy of an exalted public position. The Alabama treaty may be a very satisfac tory document to private claimants, and it ia well designed to extract money from the treasuries of both the high contracting parties. It ignores on its face, however, the prinoipal grievance of America, and at the same time opens a wide door for all classes of British claimants. The piratical cruisers Bent forth from the Ehores of England nearly annihilated Ameri can commerce. The actual loss suffered can scarcely be computed in money, but it mast amount to hundreds of millions of dollars. Onr proud flag was well-nigh driven from the ocean, and a blow was given to onr shipping interests from which they may never recover. The mischief or loss resulting from any single capture to the owners of the ship seized con Etituted but an infinitesimal portion of the damage inflicted npon this country. Under writers were compelled to advance the rate of insurance on Amerioan ships, which were thus rendered incapable of competing with their Knglish rivals. The Confederate flag was made a mere cover for deadly British warfare npon our mercantile marine, and the regis tered tonnage of the United States was reduced with frightful rapidity. However gratifying it may be to Individual sufferers to have the positive losses they sus tained by the capture of their vessels refunded by the British Government, the redress of their personal wrongs will prove but a slight atonement te the American people for au in calculable national loss and a national humili ation, and even this partial atonement will bs embittered (if the Alabama treaty is ratified) by a consciousness that it can only be pur chased by the payment to I'.rltTsh claimants of all the demands agat net our Government that a mixed commission can ba Induced to sanction. The category of British claims against this country embraoes the foreign Confederate loan, held principally by the British aris tocracy and the British Bhip-owners, who were most active, during the war, in assisting the Rebellion, and In imposing npon the Amerioan ' people immense new burdens. If the Alabama treaty is ratified, there la iiule reaion to doubt that these olaimanta will bring all their ar tillery to bear npon the mixed commission; ard If it endorses their olalm, the people of tbe United States will either be compelled to pay for the munitions that destroyed thou sands of loyal uitiw,DB, or to forego all ohauoe of ebtalning ven an ii.flnifesimal amonnt or reparation for the tfrrlble damages iulli.iUid by the plratienl crnloers fitted out In UritUh ports during the war. h- ItHllroiuU tli l ultfil KfHtiH. Tiik wonderful development of lh resources of tbe United Stfcls wLich has Uk4n pUoe within the Jabt bulf score of ytata could ouly have Iven accomplished by one means. With r nt tbe aid of railroads, an immense stretch of emtitry which is now finder cultivation and li!u,d witlt a 6tise and thriving popnla'.lon would etill 1 jiVf Wen a wilderness. The States 01 tho Uniou aie now, however, bound to gether with bands of iron, the old-fashioned ideas of time, Hpace, and distance arj anniht laUd, aud St. Louis In practically as near to l'Liladulphia ft New York was thirty years ago, and ere another yr rolls round we may expect to hive Pan l'rancieoo almost as our laxt door neighbor. Tbe Pacific Ilailroad, the greatest enterprise of the age, still remain au unaccomplishe 1 fact. But a couple of hundred miles oi the distance remain to be bridged over, however, and the last section of the road is being com pleted 6e rapidly that by the beginning of Bummer the great highway between the At. la l tic and l'acifio Oceans will be completed aLd open for travel and trallie. The import ance of the Pacific Railroad as a national work cannot be estimated. Hitherto we have bdeu divided from the Pacific uoaat and California, aid the States west of the Rocky Mountains have been almost foreign countries, with scarcely any interests or aililiations to bind them to the Kast. Not the least result of the completion of tbe l'aciiio lUilroad will be the binding together of the East and the West and consolidation of our empire. Scarcely lens importaut than this will bo the trado of China, Japan, and the Ktet Indie.s, which will natu rally traverse this continent aud pour iuto 0111 laps the wt!ih that has hitherto haeu abfoibed for the most part by Kurope. The wonderful rapidity with which the Union l'acifio Railroad has been built is un exampled in the history of railroad enterprise. An army of laborers has been employed, the deficit plains west of the Mississippi have been crossed, the Ricky Mountaioa sur nioonted, and Salt Like valley, the last resting-place of Brighaui Yvung aud his disciples, invaded; and with the Central Pacific Roai ad vaucir.g to meet it from the west, a few weeks will suilice to effect a union aud complete the great work. The opening of the Paoitlo Rail road on next fourth of July would be the grandest celebration of Independence Day we h&ve had since we were a nation. Tli Kavitl Apprciif ice. A YKAii or two aao a system of naval appren ticeship was adopUd by Congress which met with the general approval of the country. The object of this system was to train boys in naval seamanship, so that in the future a supply of competent ruau-of-war's-men might be scoured for our national vessels. As au inducement for parents and guardians to ap prentice their boys in the navy, and as an incentive to the boys themselves, it was pro vided that ten of the apprentices might be appointed to the Naval Aoademy every year. A few days since the Senate at Washington, on the recommendation of Mr. Orimes, Chairman of the Naval Com mittee, repealed this provision, thus cutting off from the apprentices all hope of prefer ment. This was a great wrong not only to the boys who have enlisted with the hope that by industry and application they may some day be able to wear the officer's epaulettes, but it is a direct violation of the pledges already made. No good reason has been given why this change should be made, and we do not believe that any good reason can be given. There iB already too much undemocratic feeling among the line offloers of the navy, and this feeling is fostered and encouraged by the training of the Naval Aoademy. This repeal of the salutary provision of the law relating to tho naval apprentices Is a weak yielding on the part of the members of the Senate to the spirit of caste that already rules too muoh ia the naval service; and we do not believe that it would have reoeived a dozen votes if the subject had been properly understood. The Senate has shown its ignorance of naval matters more than once, and the friends of that branch of pur military service should see that a few interested parties do not push through such measures as this merely for their own selfish gratification, ani without regard to the real interests of the country. We hope that when this matter comes np before the Senate, it will receive the careful consideration it de serves, that the naval apprentices may not be deprived of their rights nnder the existing law unless very satisfactory and conclusive reasons are adduced.
