It Is videnttlut Mr. Gladstone has been far more .ueoeaeful In Ma treatment of thla qaestioa than In hla management of the Reform bill, for he haa rallied hifl fall party strength, and the only possible ohanoe of retarding the Bpeedy triumph of this great and just reform moat be sought In the dilatory or hostile motion of the IIoHse of Lords. It la ecaroely possible for an American, trained under a system whioh tolerates no oonneotlon between Churoh and State, bat leaves to all seots freedom of worship, and to all oitiens freedom to appropriate every cent of the money they are willing to devote to religious purposes to the support of the de nomination they Individually prefer, to fully comprehend the outrageous and horribly unjust nature of the religious grievanoe nhder whioh Ireland has groaned for oen. turies. ! The British Government haB systematically taxed the Irish people not only for the main tenanoe of the so-called Established Church where It has an actual existence, but In parts Of .the island where It has scarcely a single worshipper large salaries are paid year after year for hypothetical churoh services for hy pothetical congregations. The meagre pittance of an impoverished people is subjected to onerous exactions for a totally useless pur pose, and the Irishman's scanty rations of pig and potatoes are reduced to a starva tion standard that a few prelates and pastors may live in luxurious ease. Long ago it was said that many of these churohes were founded for the same reason that butoher Shops were opened, to the horror of the na tives, In every village in India not that any body used or needed them, but that It was possible an Englishman might some day want to go to an Established ohuroh in the Catholio parishes of Ireland, or to get a dinner of roast beef in the heart of Ilindoostan; and that all considerations of deoenoy, justice, or hu manity must pale before the necessity of sup plying every loyal John Bull with exaotly what he wanted In every part of the British dominions. In some parishes where the Government exacts large sums from impoverished Catho llos to support dignitaries of the Established Charon, there was never a permanent Pro testant resident. Sydney Smith, himself a Protestant clergyman of the Established Churoh of England, said, in referenoa to this subject, years ago, that "Of what Protestants there are In Ireland, the greatest pari are gathered togetner la Ulster, or they live In towns. In the country of the otber three pro vluces tue Ca ill olios seen; religion but their own, ana are at the least as fifteen to one Proiesuut. In the dljoese of Taam they are sixty to one; In the pariah of Si Mulling, dlooese ot LcgUlln. there are four thousand Oatholloit ana one Protestant; la the town or Qrasgenamara, In the ooun'.y of Kil kenny, there are between four and Ave hun dred Oatbollo bouses, aud three Proteataut houses. Ia the parish of Allen, county ICll dare, there la no Protestant, tbotizii it Is very populous. In the parish of Aries! n. Queen's oouniy, the proportion Is one Hundred lo one. In the whole oonntv of Kilkenny, by aolual enumeration, it is seventeen to one; In the dloeeseof Ktlmaoduaau, province of Conuaujht, uny to one." With slight modlfloaUons these statement are substantially true to-day. Some years go the British Parliament agreed to grant a tolerably liberal annual appropriation from ine t;nuron iuna to aiaynooin college, a Catholio Institution; but this measure has only mitigated to a very slight extent the in - justloe of the present system. Mr. Gladstone proposes to "reform It altogether," but at the same time to respect vested rights. If his measure prevails, disestablishment will not take plaoe until January 1, 1871, and a com mission will be appointed to arrauge, during the next ten years, a redistribution of the assets of the existing Church, which are rained at about eighty millions of dollars. The new Episoopal Church Is to reoelve a clear title to all the private endowments or gifts it has reoeived sinoe 1660, and a fair valuation la to be paid for the life interest of its bishops, inoumbents, and curates. The Cathollos and Presbyterians are also to receive a fixed sum whioh will yield them about the amount of their present annual appropriations. The Interest of the surplus remaining after the payment of these charges is to be appropriated to the relief of the lunatics, deaf and dumb, idiots, and the poor of unhappy Ireland. The adjustment of the details of this mea sura haa been attended with great difficulty, "but it deserves high praise as an honest effort to relieve an oppressed people from a grievous burden. Mr. Gladstone contends that it will save everything in the Irish Establishment that ia worth saving, while It will command "the approving shout of mankind" by Us grand stride towards oomplete religious free dom. ' The Death of Aliuoute. AtroTHBft of the turbulent spirits whioh Mexioo has produced so prolific-ally has been called to the other world. The oable this morn ing informs us that Juan Nepomuoeno Al monte died in Paris on the evening of the 22i, well advanoed . in . years. . and doubtless thoroughly sated with the nps and downs of gmrUU st&Usaaaa3hlp. Hi oareer, a detailed toount of which is given elsewhere, would :,ad like a romance, if we did not remembar that he was a native of Mexioo. After at taining considerable reputation for ability and o allure, he came prominently before the world in the war against the secession of Texas, in 183C, in whio he figured as one of the ablest and most trusted supporters of Santa Anna. When the latter was suc ceeded by his rival, Bustamente, Almonte was made Secretary of War, notwithstanding his leaning towards Santa Anna; and when Bustamente, in turn, was hurled from power, in 1840, he retired for a time from politios, supporting himself by giving scientific leo tures In the capital. By another turn In the wheel of fortune he became the representative of Mexioo at Washington; and when the Texas imbroglio caused a breaking off of diplomatio relations between the two repub lics, he was transferred to the Courts of Franoe and Great Britain, In succession. From 1853 to 18R6 he again appeared at Washington, while Santa Anna's will enjoyed another spasmodio reign; and Santo Anna's next mis fortune saw him again transferred to London. It is difficult to divine the motives which led him to espouse the cause of Maximilian. It may have been that by this time he had so thoroughly mastered the national instinots of bis country risen as to Inollne to the belief that they were incapable of sustaining a stable form of government without the aid of some outside pressure; or, what Is still more pro bable, he may have seen that the days of his successful intriguing for place and power in republican Mexioo were numbered with the past, and that his only opportunity for figuring as a statesman lay in treachery to the cause for whioh he had pretended to struggle throughout his previous career. Whatever may have been his motive, he became a leader In the monarchical soheme, and by his earnest support of it became necessarily an involun tary exile at its final collapse. The career of suoh a man is not without its lesson. lie was unquestionably possessed of the most essential elements, both natural and acquired, for suooess in publio life. If he had been born In Spain he would doubtless have been the compeer of Prim, Serrano, and Concha; If he had been born in the United States, his oareer might have as enviable as that of any statesman or soldier whioh the country has produoed.' But the misfortune of his life was the faot of his Mexioan birth. As it was, he was a model Mexican of the old school, restless, ambitious, treaoherous, and unfortunate. The school to whioh he belonged, however, is not yet extlnot, and It is doubtful if we may witness its extinction before Mexioo again undergoes the prooess of foreign settle ment and thorough transformation. Another Leetalatlve Outrage. The State Senate yesterday distinguished itself by perpetrating another outrage on publio deoenoy. We do the Senate too much honor by putting the matter in this way; it would have distinguished itself rather by some virtuous action. Outrages have been the regular order at Uarrisburg during the present session, and the most unblushing de fiance of publio opinion and the rights of the citizens of this Commonwealth has been shown by the men who were sent to the State capital to guard our interests. The latest Senatorial effort to which we are obliged to oall the attention of our readers Is the passage of a bill to repeal the first seotion of the act, approved Maroh 14, 1867, for the better regulation of plaoes of amusement, so far as it relates to CarnoroBS & Dixey's. The aot referred to was one of the most proper and commendable ever passed by the Legislature. It was designed for the protec tion of the lives of visitors to plaoes of amuse ment, in case of alarm of fire or acoldent of any kind and it received the approval of all but a few selfish managers; who found their reoeipts in some degree diminished by it. The act forbids the placing of chairs in the aisles and passages of our theatres, ooncert-rooms. and minstrel halls, bo that in oase of aa alarm of any kind the audience may have unimpeded egress, lhe necessity for such a law Is appa rent on the face of it, and the faot that the senate has consented to exempt one plaoo of amusement from its provisions is strong olr oumstantial evidence that Improper means were used to influence those who voted to endanger the lives of the visitors to the establishment mentioned. ine minstrel nail on Eleventh street is, ordinarily, not one of the best plooes i ai j. a i . iu mo mi ior tue rapia dismissal of an audienoe, and if the managers of the oenoern are allowed to obstrnot the passage-ways the consequences would be frightful in case of an alarm of fire. If the Senate proposed to make any change In this law it ought te have in uiuaea all the places of amusement In ine city, and to make an exoeption In favor of this one entablishment Is a deliberate deflatioe of publio opinion that merits the strongest condemnation. That the Uouse will ooncnr In this outrage if it dares, we have not the slightest doubt! especially U suffloient inducements are held out by the parties Interested in the outraee. and the Governor's action in the past does not allow us to hope for any Interference on his part. The JndlHnl Contest. Tub termination of the contest between Judge Thajer and Judge Greenbank for the seat upon the benoh of the District Court of this city, will not surprise any one who is familiar with the peouliar taotlos adopted by the Demooraoy last October. In many divisions in the lower wards of the oity the election was a oomplete faroe, and when the incontestable facts in the oase were brought before the com mittea of the Legislature, they had no alterna tlve but to throw out the entire vote. Where the Demooratlo vote alone was greater than the number of legal voters residing in' the i division, the task of sifting out the legal Votes paith.xid ww est tsitoi!ag La$ml- b Mr. The course of the committee of the Legislature, whose decision In the matter Is final, will, therefore, meet with general ap proval. No reasonable and nnprejudioed person doubts that Judge Thayer reoeived a clear majority of the legal votes cast at the tleolion, and no suoh person will regret seeing him installed in the posltien to whioh he was tleoted by the people, in spite of wholesale fraud. The Fine Art. TriKRB are now on exhibition at the gallery ot Messrs. James 8. Erle A Sons several ploture by Philadelphia arllsts, whioh are well worthy the attention of onr connoisseurs. With the opening of spring oor galleries begin lo blossom with the result f the wlntor'n Ubors of the artist; and since the breach between the pnlntersand the Aoademy of Fine Arts appears to be widening ratbor than diminishing, those wbo are Interested in Philadelphia art are forced to searoh elsewhere than in the galleries of that venerable institution, if they desire to fled out what the wlelders of the brnsl and palette have been doing slnoe they relumed from their holiday rambles last fall. In their front np stairs gallery the Messrs. Karle have Arranged as a special exhibition a nw work by Mr. Ueorge H. PeltlU This is the largest and most important picture that Mr. Pettlt has yet executed, and while It shows a very decided advance in many re;peots, the artist has not suooeeded iu getting rid of all his unpleasant peculiarities of stylo. The subject is "Hamlet and Opholla," and tho soene repre sented is when she returns his letters and gifts with the words, "Kloh gifts wax poor when givers prove uftklnd." The figure of "Ophelia" Is graoeful, but rather weak. The faoe is Inexpressive, and the shadow is too cold and makes too decided a line. The drapery Is well painted, and some of the fleai is also executed with considerable skill. "Hamlet" is represented after the conven tional model, but there Is muoh expression In the face aud spirit in the action of the figure. The flesh painting In the faoe and hands of "Hamlet" Is muoh better than In the female figure. The accessories are simple but appro priate, and the general tone of the picture is better than anything that Mr. Pettithasyet given us. . In the lower gallery there are two flue works by Mr. Edward Moran. Ooe represents the coast of Maine, with lobster fishers emptying their orlbs; and the Idea of the artist has been to symbolize, by the rugged, rock-bound, and wave-washed coast, the sturdy, Independent, and energetic character of the people. The otber picture is a view near Fortress Monroe, and In this the artist haa symbolized, by the hazy atmosphere, the yellow Bands, and the stunted growth of the sea-shore, the peouliar moral and physical charaoterlstlos o( the re gion. These pictures have not the same dra matic Interest as "The Launoti of the Life Boat," by the same artist, but they are care- lolly studied works, in Mr, Moron's best style, and they should reoelve the attention of thoue who are Interested In the advancement of Philadelphia art. - h radio d's ' Crushed by Icebergs," also on ex hibition at Earles', is a picture of remarkable Interest, both on acouunt or the novel subject, and the powerful manner In which it has been treated by the artist. A ship Is represented caught between great masses of ioe, while the sailors, who have been forced to abandon her, are busily engaged in seourlng their stores. At some distance another abandoned vessel is seen on fire, and beyond, in the blue water, Is a ves sel whioh we can only hope will succeed In rescuing the shipwrecked men. The work Is very vigorously exeouted, and various tints of the loe are rendered with remarkable fidelity. The Messrs. Earle have a very superior chromo lithograph of thla work, whioh will form an admirable companion piece to Church's "Niagara." At Haseltlne's gallery there are several new works whioh will be appreciated by lovers o1 art. Prominent among them Is a ploture of re markable merit, by Professor Sohussele. The subject is "Covenanters Beading the Bible;" and for fine grouping, rich and harmonious coloring, and variety of expression In the great number of figures Introduced, It is entitled to rank as one of the best efforts of one of our best artists. Professor Sohussele has suooeeded In creating a revival of Interest In the classes of the Academy of Fine Arts during the past winter, and bis Instructions have produoed the most gratifying results as regards the progress of the pupils. A large work entitled Esther Denouncing Haman," ordered by some or the gentlemen prominently connected with the Aoademy of Fine Arts la fast approaohlng completion In Professor Bohussele's studio, and It Is expected that it will be ready In time for the exhibition, which will open In a few weeks. Mr. Haseltlne has Just placed upon exhibi tion some twelve or fifteen painting by Mr, W. O. W. Dana of New York. This gentleman is we believe, a pupil of Couture, and he appears to be equally proficient In the lines of figures, landscape, marine, and animals. Mr. Daua has that free and graoeful style of handling which distinguishes the best masters of the modern French sohool. Hla largest ploture. entitled 'Heartsease," representing a slok child resting wearily upon Its pillow and play ing with a bunoh of the flowers whioh suggest the title, is a charming work, alike excellent In sentiment, color, and drawing. A little French peasant girl, and a portrait In profile of the artist's little daughter, are also worthy of notice as fine speolmens of flesh painting. A marine representing the ocean after a siorin, with the moon breaking through the clouds, is a work of unusual merit; and the smaller pic tures of animals, landscapes, and marine views will give a very favorable Idea of Mr. Dana's versatility. Another noteworthy picture at Haseltlne's Gallery Is "The Enchantress,' by Hamilton Wild, of Boston. This represents a female figure, with snake-like locks, standing In desert place, performing her Incantations over a brazier, from which is Issuing a thick smoke The work Is painted In a somewhat peouliar manner, but It Is original both 1b conception and execution. The artist bas ideas, and the picture is well worth studying to find out all that there is In It. It may not be amiss for us to state, for the benefit of the publio, that Mr. Haseltlne's gal leries are open every Monday evening until 10 o'clock. The walls are uuua with flrsUoiass vorks by European and American artists o the highest reputation, and there Is alway i something to be seen that Is well worth see. ing. Mr. Haseltlne Is desirous of making the galleries an attractive plaoe of resort for lovers or an, and he exerts himself to obtain ror ex nlblllon the latest new clotures by the beat artists. An Interesting exhibition will be opened on the first of April at Haseltlne's Gallery by the Women's ' National Art Association. a large number of wonen artists are working dilUzently In our mlost, and a ipeoial exhibition will afford the publio an opportunity to see what they are doing, X&e ittfcj tct.oX tie, employment of jroJa:a U o-P of great Interest, and the sphere of art appeaia to be particularly well adapted for them. Some of oor women artist, with but Imperfect means of instruction, have attained to great proficiency in various branches, and a little kindly enoouragemeut from the publio wilt do muoh to advance the Interests of art, and to stimulate the women wbo are endeavoring to obtain the same recognition aa Is awarded to their brotbren of the brush, graver, and ohlseL ' Contributions for the exD ibltlon, of oil paint, lugs, water colors, pastel, designs, studies, and drawing of all descriptions, sculpture models in plaster, wood and steel engravings and lithographs, will be received, and women throughout the country engaged in art pur suits, or wbo have In their posscsslou works executed by women, are Invited to contribute to the exhibition. Asa stimulant to exertion a prize will be awarded for the best original picture. Works for the exhibition muBt be lea at the gallery before Maroh 81. We most heartily commend this matter to all who are interested In art matters or the subject of women's work and wages. Btbket Cabs AND OMNIBUJKS.The Dai'! iVewt of London has the following: "Copen hagen has 100.000 inhabitants; Its tramway ora nlbuses last year carried 4,000,000 of passengers. In New York and Brooklyn, with less thau 2 (X.0,000 of people, 63 miles of tramway conveyed In 1807 no fewer than 78,065,616 passengers. Con tragi this with London. Our omnibuses, lum bering over 350 miles of street, and serving 3,C00,000of people, carried 41,311,602 passengers Another comparison brings out the contrast of the two systems still more strongly. The 79,000,000 oi New York passengers were carried in 075 carriages, drawn by 4830 horses; lltt.O'JO passengers to every carriage and 10,318 to every horse. The 41,500,000 of London passengers were carried In 682 vehicles, drawn by 6577 horses; 71,021 passengers to each vehlole and 6525 to each horse. Tramways are In faot to the ordi nary modes of street conveyance much what railways are to stage coaohes." The Newt refers to the experiments of George Frauds Train, and says "he laid down a bad rail, which hin dered the other traffict and be did the whole thing In suoh a spirit of bumptious blundering that the very word tramways has bad an ugly sound ever since."
