Tbe Receiver of for the Twmty third Ward.. Sbratob Conkell's fcill to provide ft nice, pleasant, and highly profitable office for some particular friend In the Twenty-third ward has passed to ft third readlDg In the State House of Representatives, and the next we wM probably hear of It will be In the shape of ft law rushed throngh both houses with that peonliar faoility for whioh the Legislature Is noted in cases of this kind, and signed without delay by the Governor. Senator Connell's scheme Is that a Receiver of Tares shall be elected speotally for the Twenty third ward, to hold office for three years, and to receive about $10,000 or more per annum in the shape of salary, perquisites, etc. The work of the offioe whioh it is proposed to create for Senator Connell's friend how do we know that it is not for Senator Connellhimself T has hitherto been very satis factorily performed under the existing ar rangement, by whioh the regular Receiver appoints a deputy for the Twenty-third ward, who is responsible to him and for whom he is responsible. There is not the shadow of a necessity for the creation of a new offioe, and if there was, it would be an ontrage on the citizens of Philadelphia, and the taxpayers of the Twenty-third ward in particular, for tha Legislature to pass or for the Governor to sign such a bill as that of Senator Con nell. Mr. Connell proposes to give his friend two and a half per cent, on all the taxes paid in, and he is further to receive five per oent. for the collection of all delinquent taxes and seventy-five cents on each bill, and lnoaseof destralnt, the same costs thatoon Stables reoeive and three cents a mile circular in addition. To the other perquisites is added the sum of fifty cents, which the Receiver of Taxes Is to pay out of the city treasury when ever the Twenty-third ward offlolal shall far nish him with proof that a tax has been paid and discharged by judioial sale, and which has not been entered upon the Receiver's books or the registry ef taxes as having been paid. Under these clronmstances, the office of Re ceiver of Taxes for the Twenty-third ward is likely to prove a very profitable and muoh-to-be-deaired office. A competent business man could, in the course of his three years' term, afford to retire and enjoy the fruits of his labor. Senator Connell, or the friend for whom he is exerting himself in the Legisla ture, will have a very nioe thing of it if this bill gets through, and that it will get through, unless some very decided opposition is made to it, the fact that it has passed to ft third reading, and the whole course ef the Legislature during the present Bession, sufficiently indicate. The proposed creation of this new office U an outrage on the oitisens of Philadelphia, and we hope that the voioe of publio opinion will restrain the mem bers of the Legislature from obliging Senator Connell in this matter, if nothing else wilt. Some of them hope to visit Uarrisburg again, and a tolerably decent record will be as much in their favor on election day as their partisan affiliations. Hftwklah Sensibility for murderer TVh understand that a movement U on foo' among the clergymen of Philadelphia to petition the Governor for the paid n o Twitohell, or, if not for his pirdon, at least for an indefinite delay of the warrant of execu tion. We are not aware who these Christian gentlemen are, nor do we propose to reflect on the motives which actuate them In their coarse. We are ready even to go so far as to aay that they believe they are doing a good jeed in seeking to save the life of the unfortu nate young man. But, after making all these o once salons, we cannot hesitate to denounce their action as unwarranted by reason and oppose! to justice and the publio peace. It may be the misfortune only, or it may bs the fault, of the cloth, that Its members are con tinually being led, by a mistaken notion of Christian duty, into interfering In a most re markably silly manner; and of all their mis judged actions, this is certainly preeminent. Let u look at ' the state of the criminal and of Philadelphia. The heinous charaoter of the offense cannot be denied; neither can ft dozen men who ate conversan with the testimony be found to believe that Twitohell was not guilty. Yet his pardon is asked. Do either the records of the case or the state of society authorize executive clemency in his case f The whole of the de tails of the murder were patiently examined by twelve Jurymen. They were investigated at great length, and by the aid of learned counsel, and the unanimous and almost In stantaneous result was the convlotion of the prisoner. One Judge, impartial and able, lis tened to all the evidence, and thought him guilty. Four judges reviewed the law in the entire case, and were al of the opinion that both the law and the faots authorized the ver dlot. Fire more Judges, the full Bano of the Supreme Court of the State, again went over the ground, and refused to interfere. We need not go behind the opinion of the twelve sworn men as to the faots and nine able and Impartial judges as to the law. There is nothing, therefore, In the case Itself to call for its being set aside j the lcutlve. Does the state of Phila delphia warrant the exeroise of clemency at the present time t The voioe of the whole law-abiding people of the olty answers no. Never before has or line been so prevalent. Never before have so great a number of mr ders been committed. Truly, it eeems as though we lived in London one hundred years ago, and were about to rHinaot the highway adventures related in "The Tale of Two Cities." If there continues to be suoh auda city on the part of criminals, it will be neces sary for each oar to have watoh armed with ft blunderbuss to protest the travellers. The highest crimes are oommitted without hesitation. One oitizen is stoned to death at 4 o'olock in the afternoon by a party of boys. Another is shot down in the streets. Another Is assassinated in his bed-room because he was abusing his murderer with his words. All these show at what small value human life is estimated. And as to leBser crimes, they have lost all their terrors. Now, what is the remedy for this evil condition of affairs. Mawkish sensibility for the crimi nal f No 1 the stern exeoutlon of the utmost rigors of the law. There are two oonvioted murderers in jail now. Let them both be hung by the neck until they are dead. We say this not as a revenge for their own orimes, but as a means of preventing a repetition ef the crimes in the future. It is for the safety of society, of the innooent, of the old and de fenseless, that we call for an exeoutlon of these murderers. Yet all this is forgotten In the false sympathy excited by their fate, and the most interested class of the community the gentle and harmless are asking for the re spite of their own enemies. There is no reason, no Christianity, no justice, in this. The old Mosaic doctrine, that "whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed," is not obsolete, but its praotioal ne cessity is daily felt. Any relaxation of it at the present time would be a weak display of ill-timed sympathy, and would endanger the innocent. We trust that our clerioal friends will confine themselves to the pulpit, and not weaken their denunciation of sin by be coming abettors of the sinners. tju-kly at la Espitirnole. More than once in the past have we bidden farewell to Binckley, and yet in some myste rious way this irrepressible eooentricity would eontrive to belie our words. Now, however, we confidently assure the world that Binokiey has received a quietus, that he has been put to sleep so soundly that he will know no waking. Yesterday afternoon he received from Mr. J. F. Hartley, the aoting Secretary of the Treasury, a note running in this wise: "Jobu M. Binckley, Kq., Solicitor of Intern l llevtniif : Sir 1 am requested by the Presi dent to Inform yon tbal your services as 8 llcltor oi Internal Revenue are no longer re quired by ibe Government. Yon are, therefore, hereby removed from the office." Ttis heartless action on the part of Presi dent Grant was in oonsequenoe of the receipt by him of a communication from Commis sioner RolUiu1, in whioh it was set forth that in his estimation Binckley 1b "ft wilful per jurer, or 60 weak and credulous as to make him the convenient tool of. corrupt and malicious men." In consequence of this not very flatteiing opinion, Commissioner Rollins states that he has not felt justified in assign ing Binckley to any duty, and has repeatedly requested his removal. It is further deolared by Mr. Rollins that Binckley cannot even claim to be a lawyer, that he never under took to practice, and that he has not failed to draw his monthly salary, at the rate of $4000 per annum. In view of all these faots, President Grant disposed of Binckley in the manner already alluded to. The question now arises, What will Binokiey do about it f Will he refuse to vacate the desk in the Treasury building in front of which he has been so long engaged in the highly Intellectual exeroise of dangling his legs in idleness ? If so, it may become neces sary for Mr. Hartley to put him through the motions vulgarly known as walking after the fashion prevalent in Spain. The operation is painful when the subject is an unwilling one; and as Binckley has displayed in a rare degree the talent of obstinacy, we anticipate a con siderable amount of fleshly mortification on his part, when he starts from his desk with an unmentionable portion of his unmention ble garment in the firm and merciless grasp of Mr. Hartley. When Binckley has once reached the steps of the Treasury, another perplexing question arises. Will he follow Andrew Johnson to Tennessee, and be swal lowed up " with him in the gulf of oblivion f or will he encase his lacerated nether limbs in a pair of seven league boots, and go strutting through the length and breadth of the land breathing vengeance against the giants by whom he has been at last discomfited f If any other living soul save Binckley were to be subjected to such ignominious treatment, his chivalrous soul would rise in arms against the outrage, as it did abont a month ago when he belched forth such blazing words as these: "I de clare, by the Lord, I will avenge every injured hair of McHenry's head !" Bat in the very epistle in which this flaming sentence ocours, we find the following display of saintly for. givenese: 1 J hate no man, and am destitute of personal resentment for anything which has been aimed at myeelfl" This, we think. settles the whole question, and disposes us to anticipate the emigration of the ex Solicitor to some retired locality in the wilds of Ten sessee. So "Fare thee wel ! and If forever, bill! forever fare thee well !" Tbe City Trusts. In another column will be found the full text of a bill introduced yesterday In the State Senate, to constitute a board of Directors of City Trusts, whioh appears to be in every way ft sensible and proper measure. The bill provides that "all and every the duties, rights. and powers of the city of Philadelphia in all property and estate whatever, dedioated to charitable uses or trusty, the charge or ad- minktratien of whioh are now, or shall hereafter beoome, vested In or confided to the oity of Philadelphia," shall be dis charged by the city through the In strumentality of a board of fifteen oltizena, of which the Mayor and Presidents of 8leot and Common Counolls shall be ex officio mem bers. The Judges of the Supreme Court, with the Judges of the District Court and the Court of Common Pleas, are to form a B ard of Ap pointment, and the twelve ottlxens to be selected by them are to serve during good behavior. This measure Is one that has long been needed, for it is oertain that the oity trusts have not been administered ai they should be. We believe that th'e bill provides the right means for seourinir a capable, honest, and Intelligent board of officers, and it should meet with no opposition In the Lfglslatnre.
