PHILADELPHIA. "All signs fail in dry wenther," and notwith standing the fretivfent indications of heavy htoruis, nnd the prognostications of tho wisest of -weather-prophets, no Hubstantiul addition has yet been made to the waters of the Schuylkill. Even the promising shower of Saturday night has not helped to fill our empty reservoirs, and we must again look for ward eagerly to a protracted rain ns tho only thing that can give permanent nnd complete relief. Fortunately, however, the Schuylkill nnd Delaware stcnni works continue to pump into the reservoirs enough water to furnish a scant supply, nnd if housekeepers nre econo mical there is litilo danger that their resources will le entirely cut off. Even when the Fair- mount works cease running. 1..,Oim,oik gal Ions, or about it barrel of water for every , man. woman, and child, can bo furnished by the other works, so that Philadelphia, in spite of her panic, is probably as well provided at this moment as New York with her boasted system of Crotoii works. The Chief Engineer has been severely blamed for not continuing the steam fire engines in service; but some of the indigna tion expended in this direction is rather superfluous. The steam fire-engines were sent to Fnirmount to try nu experiment, nnd we nre very glad that it was successful. If nn absolute necessity arises we hope that pro vision will be made for employing all the steam lire-engines in tho city, but their aid is at this moment not imperatively needed, nud if, by throwing a few millions of gallons por day into the reservoirs they inspired tho belief that the hydrants could be used as freely as ever, they would do more harm than good, by causing tho waste of three or four times as much water ns they would supply. The real crisis of tho water question oc curred on the Saturday when the Chief Engi neer requested the Schuylkill Navigation Com pany to opon their dams. At that time it was not only impossible to run the Fnirmount Water Works, but the boilers used at tho Schuylkill works were found to be iu bad condition, and for the moment thero was great danger that the Schuylkill steam1 works as well ns the Fairruount Water 'Works would be temporarily useless. In that event tho only reliance would have been upon tho Delaware works, which at best could supply only from 4,()0i),0(.K) to r.,000.000 of gallons daily. By the opening of the dams, however, an opportunity was aff orded to put a largo quantity of water in tho reservoirs by water power, and sutliciiuit time wus gained to repAir and strengthen tho boilers connected with the Schuylkill steam works, so that they have since been in good working order. The most unfortunate feature of the water question arises from the fact that little or none of the money derived from the water loan of one million of dollars was used to guard against tho contingencies which have exposed Philadelphia to so mauy inconveni ences and dangers. Wo uro informed th.il even the new Cornish engine at the Schuyl kill Works, and the turbine wheels at Fair mount, were paid for out of special uppropria tions, and meanwhile, although new boilers were so sadly needed at tho Schuylkill Works, and auxiliary engines at Fairmount. hat was done with the million of dollars ? It seems that it has all gone to increase the water-supplies of West Philadelphia, and to carry water to Mauayunk and regions adjacent to Kox borough, where scarcely a single applicant needs the new facilities, and where tho ex penditure was almost totally unnecessary. It was highly important that the West Philadelphia supply should be increased, but a much larger sum was expended for the purpose than was absolutely required: and without prejudice to a single suburban interest of real consequence, the bulk of our popula tion would to-day bo fortified against a water famine in the most protracted of droughts if the money squandered uselessly for tho nomi nal accommodation of Green Lane and Manayunk had been expended for new boilers at the Schuylkill works and auxiliary engines at Fnirmount. We believe that the inception of this ruinous policy dates back several years, before the present Chief Engineer was elected, but its results are now so painfully apparent, that it should serve as a perpetual warning to Councils and to citizens against the danger of ountenaneing wild-goose anil extravagant schomes at the very moment when tho welfare of nine-tenths of the population of the city is neglected. This is worso than saving at tho spiggot and letting a precious fluid run out at the bung-hole. It is tampering with tho property, health, and lives of three-quarters of a million of peoplo, to save a few thousand dollars, and simultaneously squandering a million for objects of questionable utility, or to serve a small population. Now that the errors of the past are so fully exposed, Councils cannot be too prompt in adopting efficient Vut not extravagant plans to correct them. We want no more commissions to go rambling through tho country to discover pro texts for spending more money than tho city can raise, and we want no postponements of the eoniDaratively few nnd simple things which can insure abundant water supplies until grand aqueducts can be constructed to bring water from the Perkiomen or the head of the Delaware. We have the Schuylkill at our doors, with plenty of water in its bed, even at this period of unparalleled scarcity, and the paramount necessity of the time is the Adoption of sure means for raising its supplies into our reservoirs. AN "AGONIZING" ONSLAUGHT. Months yea, verily And indeed, we might with truth say y oars have elapsed since the Hon. James M. Scovel, of Camden, compelled ns to devote a share of our valuable space to his vagaries. And when wo last did so, we left our clastic friend in a very unsatisfactory condition. He was thon noithcr doad nor alive politically speaking, of courso with tho odds inclining towards dondnoss. Time, we nre glad to see, has not operated to his disadvantage. He hns boon in repose for an indefinite period, and emerges from it more sprightly, nnd, doubtless, more elastic than ever. If his political avatar were nttended by no unusual phenomena, we might view it with entire and hearty satisfaction. Hut he bursts upon us from two points of tho compass, simultaneously, and confusion at the outset is the natural and inevitable result. The care lessness of a newspaper reporter in omitting initials leads to the suspicion that tho Scovel who bursts upon us from one quarter may not, after all, be' the Scovel, but another Scovel. It is a more suspicion. Nothing is more characteristic of the elasticity of the original Scovel than a double npparition, and for this reason we are inclined to tho belief thnt the "Mr. Scovel, of New Jersey," who has been figuring at the Woman's Suffrage Convention nt Newport, is the Hon. James M. Scovel, of Cumdeii. As n female suffragist, Scovel begins life in n small, modest, and on the whole very proper way. He brings up the rear of tho business committee, following in tho wake of such bright lights ns Mrs. Pauline Davit, Miss Susan 15. Anthony, Miss Theodore Til ton, nnd Mrs. Hooker old stagers, all of them, of whose company Scovel, a young man in the business, ought to be proud, and doubtless is proud. Indeed, we think he has mndo a very good beginning. Ho has won tho confidence of Susan and the other female agitators, and when a man and a new man nt thnt succeeds in winning tho confidence of these suspicious old ladies, ho is doing marvellously well. The task of fixing up the business programme of a female suffrage con vention is a very important one, re quiring tho clearest sort of a head and the widest range of virtues and acquirements. All of Scovel's co laborers on the business committee are inveterate talkers, nnd will assuredly be too busy with their tongues to devote any time to committee matters. This will throw the bur den of the whole thing on Scovel's shoulders, which would receive it with satisfaction were it not for the fact that Scovel, like nil great reformers, likes to put in a word now and then. Put he can certainly afford to hold his peace for a lit tie while, in return for the great honor thrust upon him a perfect equality with Susan 15. and all tho other old ladies who ure running the woman suffrage conven tion nt Newport. Ho is doing remarkably well for a beginning, nnd at the next gather ing of the female suffragists may do better, may even be permitted to open his mouth and (piole the choicest sayings of Demos thenes, Montesquieu, Andy Johnson, and all the other leading nulhorities on tho woman question of ancient and modern times. Tho fact that an organization to be known as "The Ilepublicau luviucibles'' was recently gotten up iu Camden did not escape our no tice. The Hon. James M. Scovel figured pro minently at the first meeting, and, if we are not mistaken, presided over its deliberations, wrote the resolutions, made the principal speech, and was honored with the bulk of the cheering. This invincible phalanx have just issued a formal manifesto. It bears the names of five committee-men, among which that of Scovel does not appear. But his mark is so indelibly impressed upon the document a sort of supplemental Declaration of Indepen dencethat wo experience no difficulty what- j ever in tracing it to its source, the "Diction ary of Choice and Popular Quotations" which is the best thumbed book in Scovel's exten sive law library. This Supplemental Declara tion is fully up to the original in its entirety, nnd in some of its details leaves Jefferson's famous instrument a mile aud a half in tho background. ' A mere outline must suffice for our readers. The Camden luviucibles or the Hon. James M. Scovel, if you please "go forward, con scious that right makes might," calling upon, the Almighty to defend "the right" merely, fully and properly persuaded that "tho might" w ill take care of itself. Such is the peroration. The exordium starts out with a quotation from Jefferson, which is made applicable to the lamentable state of affairs existing across the river, where somebody has given "tho last stab to agonizing affection," and walked rough-shod over the llepublican party of that section; or, as the Supplemental Declaration has it, "ruled us with n rod of iron," which, we take it, is much the same thing, diffe rently expressed. It is easily Been that the gentlemen who wield tha "rod of iron" in this reckless fashion, and drive "agonizing affection" to the wnll so mercilessly, have put their foot into a very sorry piece of busi ness. They have even gone so far as to "re gard the masses of the peoplo as Asses, ready saddled and bridled, whoso williug backs bend in order that any demagogue may ride forward into power." This is bad enough, of a surety; but tho men who did not scruple to give "the last stab to agonizing affection," have not scrupled to do what is a groat deal worse, to act upon tho belief that "it is the chief end of man, not to glorify God, but to get into a fat place, and take all their family thero also" the "fat place" iu question being "tho ark of office." Now, as an offset to all these scandalous pro ceedings, the luviucibles, first promising that I ,ni iiui was "a shining and Christian Uepub I licau.'and that "all men nre. and were ereatod. ; equal," pledge their "sacred honors" that they will, "to tho bitter end, make war upon the insolence, tho imbecility, and tho fla grant injustice, the contempt of tho popular will that has ruled the actions of men who never were contndlrd by love of the people." This noble Declaration is a little mixed, when viewed from tho syntactical standpoint; but for all that, it is easy to see that the Invin cibles Are dead in earnest, and have made up their minds to cause a great deal of trouble to the men who gave "the last stab to ago nizing affection," who throw "rods of iron" nround with perfect looseness, who "regard the masses of the people as Asses," and who finnlly, in defiance of Saint Paul and con tompt of the equality of the races, get them s dves into the "ark of office," simply because it is such a "fat place," aud has accommoda tions for whole families. From all this it 'will be seen that Scovel has two big jobs on hand. But with Susan B. Antl ouy and Theodore Tiltou to back him up in the onslaught upon generic mankind at large, nnd the doughty Invinciblos of Camden to support him in the crusade against thoso shameless fellows over tho river, it needs no prophet, nor sou of a prophet, to divine the propitious result. In 'Lancaster County, the stronghold of Ilepublicanism, tho Crawford county system of making nominations by a popular vote prevails, nnd Saturday last was the day set npnrt for these primary elections. As the records of tho old members of tho Legisla ture were thoroughly canvassed, it is believed that not one of them was renominated, while Billingfelt, the State Senator who exposed and resisted their extravagance, carried tho county by a majority of nearly two thousand. There is no doubt that the Kepublicaus of Philadelphia ought to have adopted tho policy which their brethren in Lancaster county have enforced, but since thoy neglected to do this, it is not too late yet to throw our six Jonahs overboard. Every man of them ought to be defeated. Let tho voters look out sharply for Stokes, Davis, Hong, Bunn, Cloud, nnd Adaire. JAPAN. The ( a il arc of Ilnkodiiill -Heroic Defense by I Ik- Ki-Im'In. The Japan Tinn s of July 13 gives an account of the tall of llakotladi, by which the late civil war came to an end. (Mi the Will of June a very severe eiigaiieiueut occurred between the Toku uawa rcfuuees anil llic Imperial licet, cousi.-tiii of the lleiula, the Kami-iio-ivaini, the Kianir-ui, and another vessel, name not n'lvou, all led by tho .Stonewall. The lire was directed against the fort and the rebel war-ve.-sel Eaijle, and was answered with spirit. The Kajjle was stranded, but uot silenced ilurimr the hiiule. (n the 20th the .Mikado licet commenced au attack on the fort, whilo the troops advanced toward the breastworks. For tour hours a severe and continuous lire of jireat ,ruiis and musketry was kept up, and both sides fuiurnt with i;orninl spirit. Hut superior to alt in gunnery, hi indomitable courage aud inexhausti ble ij;or, were distinguished tho crew of the rebel ship Emperor." beset by the whole of the .Mikado licet, menaced by the crushing rain of the Stonewalll, the especial mark of the well directed tire of the Kiansu and the Ilcuda. the little vessel, hardly larger than a yacht, was fought with heroic courage aud dauntless reso lution. One of the attacking licet was blown up by a shell iu her magazine, thrown by the Kmperor. he tank immediately, and her crow strutted in the water, with more shell lroin the enemy bur.-timr over their heads. The rules of civilized wartaie were not obseived by tho rebels, ami tho sinking men were so far neglected by their friends that only twenty were saved. As the day progressed it was evident that the Tokugawa men were being overpowered. The Eagle and the Emperor were tired and blown up. The town and neighboring villages and official houses were also bred. During the afternoon of iluuc 21 the Mikado s troops and civil officers occupied the town, but the Fort Kamida still held HM desperate men. It was surrounded by Imperial troops, and on tho 2!M a mesae was received from its commander, Knomoto, proposing terms of surrender. The terms were rejected, aud Enomoto opened lire with rapidity. Supplies were sent into the fort, during the night of tho :hl, from some of the Mikado's men. The garrison was also allowed to replace guns in position, and enjoy other advantages, because the Imperial officers thought it was "inglorious to interfere with them iu their stai viiig condition." This absurdity is described as peculiarly Japanese. On tho 2"th the fort was surrendered after some lighting. On the 27th the Tokugawas were all disarmed. They were a motley crew many of them lads of 17 or IS, and all very young. Their dress exhibited eveiy possible variety of what seemed English slops of the worst description, in tho dirtiest possible condition. The number of executions will not be great. Seldom, says tho Japan Gazette, has a revolu tion anywhere, certainly never iu the East, been followed by so few political executions. Eno nioto's crime, however, has been enormous: ho is a traitor to his sovereign, a traitor to his chief, a renegade from his clan, and a robber of the public. Ho has caused much bloodshed and great loss to the country, nnd his punishment will doubtless bo signal. On the 2iith of July tho Gazette had the following: Politically, everything is quiet. The lleet has returned from Jlakodadi, with a great portion of the troops on board, the rest coming down overland. As they arrive, they are despatched to their several pro vinces, and Ycddo will soon have only its ordi nary garrison. Tho place seems to bo lilliiig fast again with its legitimate Inhabitants. We wish we could add that its legitimate trade wa also reviving. JEFF. DAVIS. The l.lon of JJliiBKOW.
