A JA CKDA W TL UCKED.
h hew tending of the old fable of the jack
flaw who Btnitted for a time in the gay
feathers of a peacock, only to be held np to
jleriaioa after he was stripped of his borrowed
plamage, has just been famished in Con
gress. Dawes, of Massachunetts, has been
Winning the enthosiastio plaudits of the De
mocracy by his fierce diatribes against the
administration, and airing his individual pre
tensions as a claimant for the honors of a
first-class economist by opposing the League
Island bill, but as the debate progressed his
' arguments were fully answered and his renl
motives ' thoroughly exposed by the Repre
sentatives of this State. He has discovered
fcythis time that instead of Pennsylvania
wearing her heart upon her sleeve for daws
to peok at with Impunity, she is able to not
only drive off her assailants, but to pluck
them of their fine foathora. It now
appears that some of the Republican
members from this State preferred Mr.
Blaine to Mr. Dawes as Speaker of the House,
and that's what's the matter. The Massachu
setts enemy of the League Island bill writhed
under this imputation when it was made yes
terday by Mr. Scofiold, but there can be
little doubt of its substantial correctness
when the envenomed and absurd character of
Mr. . Dawes' opposition is considered. The
proposed measure is of such a character that
the only possible motive for antagonizing it
must be sought either in a desire to spite
Pennsylvania or to stave off action for a time
in the hope that eventually a New England
Site may be chosen for the loading navy yard
Of the Union. Philadelphia does not ask
. that a single dollar shall be taken from the
national treasury or a penny added to the
burdens of taxpayers. She has begnn her good
' work by presenting to the Government, as
v .free "gift, the finest and largest site for a
navy yard in the world, and she proposes that
this stop shall be followed np only by the ap
propriation from time to time of the moneys
received from the.sale of the site of the pre
sent Navy Yard to the improvement of the
new one. Mr. Dawes and Mr. Washburn, the
prominent opponents of the bill, did not hesi-
, tate at the last session to vote a million to the
Book Island arsenal and bridge, and quite re
cently Washburn hurried through an appro
priation of $200,000 for the improvement of
the Dos Moines Rapids; but they are suddenly
seized with a fearful lit of economy when the
Government is asked to provide itself with a
Splendid and adequate new navy yard, in lieu
of an insufficient old one, notwithstanding the
liberality already displayed by this city, and the
assurances that the moneys received for the
old site will defray all the neoessary expendi
tures. Mr. Dawes, to give a keen edge to his
demonstration, to redeem from utter con
tempt aa attack which would otherwise have
teen too frivolous to attract serious atten
tion, and to disguise the rankling hat re J
generated by disappointed ambition, ran
sacked the whole list of the estimates of the
administration, heaped up blunder upon
blunder of Ms own in attempts to convict
Grant's Secretaries of "blunders and. extrava
gance, and then singled out as the special ob
ject of his animadversion the one particular
item whioh of all the list was the most inno
cuous, and whioh only proposed to exohange
B bad navy yard for a good one, after the Gov
ernment had solemnly pledged itself to con
summate this excellent bargain.
Mr. Dawes wound up one of his most
savage assaults on the Cabinet with a declara
tion that "faithful are the wouuds of a
friend;" and he seemed to be unconscious that
he was playing tha part of tha cowardly as
sassin of old who sought an opportunity to
. strike a fatal blow with his dagger by making
the friendly salutation, "Is it well with thee,
' my brother '(". His opposition to the League
Island bill, in connection with his other amia
ble peculiarities, indicates tnat tnere is no
"' more sincerity in his pretended love of eco
nomy than in his alleged devotion to Repub
. licanism.' . We have no doubt that he would
rather see the nation squander tea millions
' in a vain effort to construct an insufficient
navy yard in New England than vote for the
.- appropriation of a single dollar to make all
the natural advantages of League Island avail
able. " The sooner suoh men are exposed the
better will it be' for the Treasury as well as
for the naval and other interests of the
country. . . ..,,,,

,.A besoltjtioii m passed yesterday by
Select Council requeuing the Legislature not
to pass the bill now before it to increase the
term 'of all the heads of the city departments
except the Water Department to three years;
and also the bill appointing a commission to
purchase ground and erect a House of Correo
tion. The ground of this protest is that the
passage pf .these bills would be an infringe
meat on the powers of Councils. The prin
cipal Apposition to the resolution came from
Jlr. Smith, .of the Twenty-second ward, who
considered it ridiculous tq attempt to inter.
fere with 'matters pending before the Legis
lature, and furthermore because he was in
favor of keeping Republican heads of de
partinents in ofUoe as long as possible, and
tie did not oare who knew it.
. Wo think that Select Council did
err proper thing by protesting against
this interference on the part of, the
legislature, although we really ' Lave not
a much sympathy with it so far as the Honaa of
Correction is concerned, for if

done their duty by making an efficient move
towards the erection of that much needod in

for the Legislature attempting , to lake fty
action on the subject. r j
THE CHEVALIER 'A UXS CHAPEA U.
Tnit Right Hon. Sir Richard Vaut, cx-M. V.
which, in this particular connection, it must
be understood, stands for ex-Mayor of Phila
delphia Esq., has created no little sensation
by nppearjng upon the streots of the city in
broad daylight, with his head covored by a
bran new hat. The circumstance, as Victor
Hugo would say, appears grave; but we are
enabled to appease the public mind by di
vulging the circumstanoes nndor which Sir
Richard has beon guilty of this innovation'
upon the sottled habits of a life already so
long drawn out that he has ' very pro
perly taken unto himself the title of a
"veteran." The old hat which the Chevalior
Vaux wore for so long a time that the memory'
of man runneth not to the contrary, was not
cast aside until stern necessity compelled it.
This shocking old hat was an historical hat,
a bat that was as dear to the Demooraoy as to
Sir Richard himself. We have understood
that it was built by Colonel Thomas 1$.
Florence many years ago, and long before
that genial deviser of coverings for the head
entered upon his political career. We give
currency to this report, but are unwilling to
become responsible for its entire correctness.
It was tke first hat that ever rested upon the
brow of the then youthful and now veteran
Vaux. It was, also, a perfect fit. Those
two circumstances, taken together,
caused Sir Richard to conoeive, at
the outset of his career, a kindlier feeling
towards the article than usually falls to the
lot of such inanimate objects. And when, in
later years, he tucked that same identical hat
gracefully under his arm and walked through
cotillion with her Majesty,, the presen'
Queen of the United Kingdom of Great Bri
tain and Ireland, Sir Richard took a solemn
vow upon his knightly honor that he would
stick to that hat till death. Beaatiful they
were in life, and by death alone was he will
ing that they should be parted. Such a oora
panionship as this of course implies a limita
tion by the death of either party to it, and
tke disjointedness of the times has dooreod
that the ohapeau should preoede the Chevalier
in its exit from this vain world. Of late years
the historioal hat has been gradually going to
grasB. To say nothing of the ordinary wear
and tear to which a hat is subjected by con
tinuol use, its symmetry sustained no incon
siderable shock on the occasion to which we
have already referred, when it was ruthlessly
tucked away under the arm of Sir Richard
while he walked through a cotillion with the
English Qneen. Then there were the innu
merable shocks to which it was subjected
daring the two exciting campaigns in whioh
the Chevalier appeared before the people as a
candidate for the honors of the Mayoralty. De
mocracy is proverbial for being rough on hats,
and Sir Riohard s favorite head-gear was hot
exempted from the rough handling incident
to every candidatoiiul Lot; and the number
and intensity of the shocks to whioh it was
subjected gradually rendered it the most
shocking specimen of a hat to be seen in the
whole city and the country round about.
Ye, t by dint of hard brushing and judicious
pressure from tho interior, it contrived to re
tain a semblance of its original antediluvian
outlines until about a month ago, when some
ignorant person from the country who had
straggled into Sir Richard's office mistook it
for one of the projections on a picket fenoe,
and in a playful mood seated himself squarely
upon its apex. , The few fortunate persons
who were favored with a sight of the hat
thereafter can join ns in testifying that, even
in view of his knightly vow, Sir Riohard was
clearly justifiable in consigning it to the top
shelf in the close of his sleeping apartment.
It was too dilapidated, even, to look graceful
on the head of the Chevalier Vaux.
'The real and the practical," said Sir
Richard on one of tho most momentous occa
sions in his momentous oareer "th real and
the ' practical, with which - now the semi
instructed mind is so absorbingly occupied,
are derived, be it remembered, from that con
junction of the emotional with the intellectual
from which alone oomes the vitality-of civili
zation." This startling passage may appear
slightly obscure to the average mind, espe
cially in this connection; but we assure our
readers that the contemplation of the great
emotional truth, which it enunciates afforded
Sir Richard inconceivable comfort for the
twenty-seven days during whioh be remained
in seclusion, after the disaster whioh befell
his favorite chapeau. From this seclusion he
emerged yesterday afternoon, bearing upon
his head the successor to the hat of his youth,,
and strengthened in the belief that "the
error to be avoided is the higher law which
it is the fashion to ' deify as ' the
attribute of the emotions, and which
is claimed to be infallible." Of course, and
if so, why not, or any other man ? The ap
parition of the new hat deceived many of he
Chevalier's warmest admirers, who failed to
recognize him.' ' Those, who did raoognize
him were not ' a little excited, "but we are
happy to state that there was no attempt at
such disgraceful disturbances as have recently
made Paris such an unhealthy place for quiet
families to live in. The new hat is shaped
after the fashion of . the old one, and, like it,
is an exact fae simile of the one which Hen
drick liudson removed from bis head on en
tering tae waters of the noble river whioh
bears his name. More than anything that we
can now call to mind, it resembles the State
House steeple, with .the belfry knocked off;
ana, aitnougn ostensiDty new, it is quite as
dingy. After it has passed with the veteran
through one or two more Demotratio cam
paigns, it will look quite like its predebessor,
and then Sir Riohard will be "himself again"
once more, to all emotional intents and
purposes. . i

tives of Ohio. The action of the latter body
gives the assent of the twenty-seventh State
to the amendment, and but one more is re

this honor, but it is possible that Georgia

MINCE AUTIIUlt
It is expected that Prince Arthur will arrive
in New York to-day, on his way to Washity.
ton to pay his respeots to President Grant,
and he will probably pass through this city
to-morrow. This young man is the seventh
child, and ' the third son, of Queen Victoria
and I'rinoe Albert. He was born May 1,
1850,'andis consequently now in his twentieth
year." The Duko of Wellington was one of
his godfathers, and the names of Arthur, Wil
liam, Tatriok, Albert were given to him "by his
sponsors in baptism," as tho English Prayer-
Book has it. " He was called Arthur as a com- J
plimont to tho Duke of Wellington; Patrick
for the purpose of conciliating the people of
Ireland, who complained that the royal family
paid them too little attention; William as a
sort of recognition of the merits of William
the Conqueror as the founder of the
English royal line; " and Albert bcoausa
his mother made it a point to nimj all
her sons after her husband,' "putting
his mark upon them, as it were'. ' Up to the
present time Frinoe Arthur has done but
little towards making himsolf famous by any
distinguished pnblio service, in faot, he
has not had a chanoe, having just finished
his ednoation, and been sent out to Bee some
thing of the world before entering upon the
round of corner-stone' laying, after-dinnor.
speaking, and presiding at the meetings of
scientific, religious, and charitablo societies,
whioh are among the chief duties imposed
upon the British princes of the present age.
His visit to America is his first publio ap
pearance, and thus far he has aoquitted him
self admirably, having opened his mouth to
utter nonsense as seldom as possible, and
making his tour through the loyal Canadas
with comparatively little noise, bustle, and
ostentation. It was rumored that he in
tended to slight the United States by refusing
to cross the St. Lawrence for the purpose of
paying us a visit, but it seems that he has
been misrepresented, and that, like an obe
dient son, he will fulfil tho wishes of his
mother by going to Washington to shake
hands with President Grant, as the represen
tative of the American people, and to show
that, in spite of the Alabama claims, his
feelings and those of his family are not un
friendly. While in Washington Prince Ar
thur will be the guest of Mr. Thornton, the
British Minister, who will oall with him on
Monday at the Exeoutive Mansion, to
see the President. On Monday evening
Minister Thornton will give a dinner in his
honor at the British Legation, 'at which the
entire Cabinet, Vice-President Colfax, Chief
Justice Chase, General Sherman, and Senator
Sherman will be present, and afterwards
there will be a reception, to whioh the fami
lies of the members of the Cabinet and the
diplomatic corps will be invited. ,' On Wed
nesday the Prince will dine with the Presi
dent, and during his stay in Washington he
will be entertained in the best manner,' and
no effort spared to make his visit aa agreeable
as possible. The Prince will remain in Wash
ington during the whole of next week, and it
is expected that he will return to New York
on Saturday. The programme for his move
ments after that date is not annonnoed, and
we are consequently unable to state whether
he intends to profit his mind by making a
tour through the United States or not. As
he will not stop in Philadelphia during his
present trip, our citizens will have bat a
limited opportunity to beoome acquainted
with his form and features; but if he is no
better looking than the other members of his
family, those who do not see hint will ! not
lose much. ' ' '' -J
Common Council yesterday did a good
thing that ought, however, to havo been
done before this by taking aa important
step towards preventing another water famine
next summer, in the appropriation of the
sum of $1,000,000 for tho extension of the
water-works. This amount will not provide
all the machinery that is required by the pre
sent necessities of the city, but -the Chief
Engineer of the Water Department says that
it is all that he will be able to expend during
the present year. The money will be do voted
to the construction of two new engines at
the Schuylkill works, and to suoh improve
ments in the other branches of the Water
Department as it is thought will in the imme
diate, future obviate any such disaster as that
under which we suffered last summer. The
oity cannot afford to delay much longer in
providing increased power at the water
works, as there is everjr prospeot from the
weather indications at present that the com
ing summer will be as dry as the last, and it
is of the utmost importance that the new
pumping engines should be built and put in
operation as soon as possible. We hope,
therefore, that Select Council will oonfirm
this appropriation immediately so that the
Chief Engineer can go on with his improve
ments, i ,
The Franklin Institute has submitted to
Councils a proposition for the oelebration in
Philadelphia of the centennial of the Decla
ration of Independence in 1876 by a grand
International Exhibition of arts, manufac
tures, and produots of the mine and soil. We
are glad that a definite move has been made
towards securing the proper observance of
this great anniversary, for although the day
is nearly seven vears off, it is not too early to
begin if the affair is to be conducted with
the splendor and magnitude that the ocoaslon
demands. It was in this oity that the Decla
ration, of Independence was signed, and
every one must admit tnat tnere i a
marked propriety in celebrating the
one-hundredth birth-day ' of the ' . nation
on the spot, when it was brought into exUU.
ence. No Witter weans of conducting such
a celebration could be devised than by a
grand Industrial Exhibition suoh as has been
proposed, which will enable us at once to
invite all the world to come and rejoice with
us over our national pronperity, and to com
pete with us in tho products of nature and
art. Independently of the appropriateness of
the selection, there is no city in the Union
that can afford better, facilities lot suoh an
exhibition as is proposed thsn Philadelphia.
We have ample space in Fairmount Park- '
all the. necessary buildings, and we can ac
commodate the crowd of strangers who will
attend in a better manner than will be pos
sible in any other place in the whole oountry.
Common Councii, yesterday agreed to the
ordinance from the Seleot Branch providing
for the experimental running of dummy 6n
gines on Market street, with the amsndment
that tho Pennsylvania Railroad Company
shall pay all damages incurred by the risk.
It will certainly be a boon if the mule trains
can be removed from Market street, and we
think that the members of Cjunoils are un
necessarily exercised about the danger of the
dummy engines. There is very little doubt
that the Pennsylvania Railroad Company will
be perfectly willing to assume all the risks of
the experiment, and if the dummies come
into use we doubt whether they will prove as
dangerous as the mules, while they will be an
improvement in every other respect. . ,
The Pall ifaW Gazette says: A story is told
which may ( be commended to Parisian gcntie-
reu .tuuminiDg a valuable nlnt. Two Ameri
cans jiyc re. d Injur with two ladies at a hotel la
Baden Baden. A Russian Prince, who wished
to pick a quarrel with them, purchased two
bouquets, and sent- them to tho American ladles
with his compliment. The Americans glanced
pleasantly at the Russian, and sent him by the
waiter who bronght the flowers two napoleons.
The offender was, it is added, so chagrined that
he left the room. It is thus shown that people
who havo abandoned duelling may bo bv no
means so defenseless against personal affronts as
might bo supposed. . - .
