Yeotbsdat the National House of llopresonta
lires took an Important step towards reliev
ing itself of one of the scandals that bring it
Into discredit, by the adoption of a resolu
tion offered by Mr. Slocum, of New York,
authorizing the Committee on Military Affairs
to inquire if any member of the House had ever
Bold or offered to sell his influence an a mem
ber in securing appointments to the Military
or Naval Academy, and whether any member
Lad received, or expressed a willingness to re
ceive, any valuable consideration for using his
influence in connection with such appoint
ments. In offering this resolution, Mr. Slocum
Called the attention ef the House to the fol
lowing advertisement in the New York Times
of February 2:
PNITKJ) STATES NAVAL ACADRM Y. Vacant
caoVtshlp to bo tilled before Jure. Panics of moans
S'l'IrrftH CoNcntKStiMAN, Uox No. 147, Ti net oilk'i".
Also West Point vacancy.
and remarkod that "he thought it one
of the crying evils of the day that
to hold office was deemed dishonorable,
and that to have the name of poli
tician was little better than to be called a
thief, and it was just such articles as that
which brought members of Congress into
disrepute."
We hope that it is the sin itself and not the
publicity given to it that constitutes the
offense in this case, for it has been a matter
of notoriety for years past that many mem
bers of Congress considered the amounts they
were able to realize from the sale of appoint
ments to Annapolis and West Point as per
fectly legitimate perquisites; and it cannot be
at all difficult for the House to obtain all the
information it wants on the subject, if it
is really interested in relieving itself
from the odium that such practices
east upon it. There was much virtuous
indignation expressed by sevoral members
yesterday at tho very idea of a member of
Congress ! being guilty of such conduct, and
Mr. Woodward, of this State, informed tho
House that a similar case had coma under his
own notioe, and that he had intended t offer
a resolution on the subject. Mr. Wood, of
New York, took occasion to say that he had
recently observed an advortisomcnt in a
Philadelphia paper offering an appointment
of this kind for sale, which seemed like an
attempt to remove some of tho odium from
the New York delegation to this city, but as
nobody but Mr. Wood has seen tho adver
tisement in question, the Philadelphia Con
gressmen may rest in pence for the present.
Mr. Soofield said that ho hud seen in two
different newspapers published in the west
ern part of Pennsylvania an intimation that
some member of Congress had sold one of
theso appointments for tho sum of $.",();),
which seems to locate the offense, so far as
this State is concerned, on thowostof tho
Alleghenies. The resolution of Mr. Sloc-.ui
was adopted without opposition, for it was
one of those delicate matters that the parties
most interested would not be likely to oppose
openly in tho House. It too often lrtppms,
however, that nothing more is heard of iuv ?
tigations into tho peccadilloos of Congressman
after they are placed in the haiid-t of committees,
and unless some of the indignation oppressed
yesterday was more real than our past expe
riences would make us believe, this affair
will be hushed .up, and no further effort
made to drag the offenders to lijUt. Thou
mombers of Congress, who are really
free from blame should insist, how
ever, on the committee doing its duly and
prosecuting the investigation with vigor, for
the entire House now rests under nn imputa
tion that is in the highest degree dissre
ditable. Utii-itaiuanism seems to rule tho age, but
especially our country, with a rod of iron.
No soonor have we projected and developed
a scheme for a noble park, worthy in concep
tion of the probable future of our city, and
in advance trumpeted tho praises of the thing
undone as outdoing all tho world, than a pro
position is made to run a railroad through it;
in a word, to ruin it. And what is urged in
favor of the undertaking? Why of all
things in the world necessity ! By all
means, if it is necessary, let us do it, the
quicker the better. Lnt is it necessary?
Why is it necessary? Let us see if it is neces
fiary. The plea is absurd on its face. The
trace of the proposed road, starting from
Girard Avenue Bridge, crosses the Junction
Hail road, runs to Fifty-fourth street, along
Fifty-fourth street to where should you im
agine? the Philadelphia, Wilmington and
Baltimore Railroad, of which the Junction
Jtailroad it a prolongation. This necessary
road, so necessary that it miiBt needs be cut
through the Park, marring the symmetry of
George's Hill and that of the adjacent strip
of land through which it is projected to pass,
Actually goes all that roundabout way, when
a railroad, connecting its initial and terminal
points, lies right along the banks of tho
Bohuylkill.!
The railroad is not necessary, it is not even
desirable, unless it can be shown that rail
Toads add to the beauty of landscape. In the
establishment of the Park on the banks of
the Soauylkill, we accepted the necessity of
one railroad, because it was there, and would
lid diffioult to place elsewhere, but we need
no more, want no more railroads in the Park.
All suoh objeots are blemishes upon the
beauty of a park, are prejudicial to the pur
pose for wWch parks are made. Itooreation,
far awny from tho busy hive of men,
from traffic, or the bare suggestion
of it, is the object of a park. It looks to
inoinl and physical well-boing, through the
ministry of fresh air, exorcise, and the con
templation of nature. It is intendod to afford
to the donizens of the crowded city the de
lights which only the favorod few can com
mand as solo proprietor. A site of natural
benuty is chosen, and on it nature is fostered
nnd induced to lavish the favors which, un
solicited, she scatters less profusely over the
earth. As a great landscapo painter gathers
into his picture, an ideal loveliness, so an
other kind of artist, working hand-in-hsnl
with nature herself, cheered
at every step by her genial smilo, makes of a
park a paradise on earth. But he does not
voluntarily put a railroad in it, he tolerates
one, that is all; and if our people understood
better than they do the laws of beauty, if
they knew that the useful may without in
congruity bo moderately embellished, but
that the beautiful shrinks withered under the
mere touch of utility, they would resent and
strenuously resist, any attempt, except upon
demonstrated neeessity, that would result in
diminishing tho peculiar value of their and
their childrens' beautiful inheritance.
Mk. Jay Cooke has recently contributed
$10,000 to the endowment of a Mathematical
Fellowship in Princoton College. The interest
of this Bum is to enure to the benefit of the
member of the graduating class who stands
highest in mathematics, provided ho continues
the study of this soience, under the direction
of the faculty, for an additional year. Pro
gression in one of the higher branches of
learning will thus be stimulated, and an ex
tension of the same system of operations
would remedy a serious defect in the educa
tional system of this country. In our busy,
bustling world but little provision is made for
the soholar, as anch; and the lover of learning,
if he happens to be poor, must abandon his
books at an early age, despite the brightest
hopes of his professors that he would win dis
tinction and benefit mankind by a continu
ance of his Btndies.
The House of Refkeszntatives yesterday
passed a resolution authorizing the Commit
tee on Military Affairs to inquire whether any
member of tho House has ever sold or offered
to soil appointments to tho Naval or Military
Academy. As Btindry ollogations have been
made that this disreputable mode of raising
the wind has been resorted to by M. C.'s.,
and ns anonymous advertisements have ap
peared offering these positions fer sale, no
pains should be spared to learn the exact
truth, and if any member has been guilty of
the imputed offense, ho should instantly be
expelled.
Puince AnTifun leaves us to-lay, after dining
with a lot of old fogies and dancing with their
dowdy wives and daughters; but of the real
youth and beauty of the city he has caught only
occasional and transient glimpses. It is a pity
that instead of tho thirty-six venerable gen
tlemen who took him in tow, and monopolized
him, ho had not fallen into tho hands of thirty-six
voting men of his own ajwho could have given
him a very different nnd mnch more favorable
idea of Now York society. Just imagine what a
brilliant gathering of young dandles and belles
might have been made if the entertaining of him
had been taken in hand by men like Elbridge T.
(ferry, Uriswold Gray, Henry Clews, Joe Marie,
Lloyd Aspinwall, George Bend, and othor dis
tiuguklicd ornaments of our fashionable salons.
He would havo been amuued instead ot being
bored ns he has been, and been able, we do not
hesitate to 6ay, to report that there are more
pretty and well dressed girls in Now York thau
ho ever eaw in Buckingham Palace. As it is,
ho jvill carry awny with him the Impression
that our men are all sixty years of age and
upward, and that there arc no women hero
younger than, his mother. A'. Y. Sun this

SQT UNION LEAGUE HOUSE.
Philadklphia, Feb. 4, 1870.
At a meeting of the Boaid of Director of the Union
League of Philadelphia, held Friday evening, February 4.
1870, the following Preamble and Resolutions were unaui
moualy adopted :
Wheroaa, A aolemn providenos of God hat audJenly
removed from the sphere of earthly usefulnosa our b
loved Pranident, HORACR BtNNKY, Jit , in the ripe
ness of his manhood, the fulness of hie clear intelloot and
the developed beauty of bis Christian virtues; and
whereas, he haa been asHociatod with the membora of
the Union League from the time of the projaotiou of onr
invitation until the lamented bour of his death, always
holding an offioial position in our body, and dying the
honored incumbent of tho highest office wbioh our ro
apect oould bestow upon his recognirod merit ; thereforo,
be it
Rceolved, tht in the death of Horace Binner. Jr., not
only the Union Leagne, but all good citizens who lived
within the influence of his precept and oiatnple, have lost
friend, a oomforter, and a courageous leader. In the
darkest hours of tbt bloody history through whioh our
oountry lately passed, when man and the eohemet of man,
seomed to fait ui ona by one, and human bopa waa driven
to Heaven for refuge, the voice of our late President waa
ver firm, cheerful, and filled with righteous oon&denoe;
bis counsel waa ever wiae and boldly provident, and be
looked the threatening fu'ure in the face with a faito ej
warm, so pure, and so complete that it eaat a glow upon
tbs most doubtful, and warmed into aotinty the most
timid and despairing bearta.
Resolved, That, ,the venerable father, the wife, the
children, and the family of our late Proaident be assured
of our doepest sympathy in their aad beroavemsnt, a be
reavement mitigated to every Uhiiatian mind by the ro
membranca of the apntless ebaracter of tho departed soul,
oftba kindly works he did hore on earth, and the ooa
acinnsnesa that be left no duty of his time unperformed ;
that be died with plana of accomplished good before him,
and that no man, at any hour of the day or night, was bet
ter prepared to hear and to follow the summon of hit
Lord.
Resolved, That, in the death of our Preaidnnt, the
Union Leagne has suffered an irreparable ioas. The atrict
and watchful fidelity with which he performed the duties
of his office, and the zealons care with -waich he guarded
the interests of our Association, ontitla bis memory to the
respect and gratitudo of our members ; an 1 the courteous
deference to privato feelings, the ju lioloui flruineas, and
the temperate wisdom with whioh ha presided over the
meotinga of the Board of Directors, won for bim an
affectionate regard that we shall heroafter treasure among
the most aaored and enduring feeling! of onr hoartt.
Resolved, That in thus testifyiug, as a body, the griof
which we feel at the loss of our President, each man takes
this sorrow to himself and makes it his own; reoognizing,
aa we do, the weakness of words to express the solemnity
of woe or tha warmth of sympathy, or to illustrate public
and private virtues which wero aa high, as dear, and us
untarnished by earth as that heaven towards which the
soul of the righteous man aspires.
Resolved, That the League House ahull be draped with
the usual emblems of mourning for thirty dajia, and that
the Board of Director in a body, and a Committee of the
membora of the League, shall attend tho funeral ser
vices of our late President.
Resolved, That these resolutions be published, and
that eopioa of them be transmitted to the Hon. Horace
Binncy, and to the family of our late Prosidunt.
Bf order of the Board ef Directors.
It GEORGK H. BOKKR, Secretary.
IT CURPSTONE MARKET PROTEST
At a meeting of the storekeepers and property
owners of North Second Mreet, hold February 4, 1M7U, the
following preamble and resolutions were unanimously
adopted :
A bill having been int induced into the Houso of Repre
sentatives, making it unlawful to establish or maintain
a btond on the public streets or footways of that portion
of t'hilituelpluu bHtwven Walnut street and Girard avenue
lor the sale of meats, fish, or fuim produce; and whereas,
for years we havo submitted to the occupancy of ourstoro
fronts and pavements as market stands, to the great ia
coiiveuimce of our customers and the aerious injury of our
business interests; petitioning and protesting in vain
Hijoiiisi so glaring an outruge upon our righta, we dosire to
submit to the public a few facts.
First, It has been asserted that this movomont reooives
the sympathy and support of only a Jneot those inter
ebtcii in property on Socoud atreot. On the contrary,
more than tuo-tliinls of tho owners and occupants of stores
en the street ask for its removal ; not oue of whom has
any interest in "Alaikot llouso Stock," and potitions to
this elteut have been signed by Ihreo hundred ttorekeepers
iiinl piopiTty owners between Ruce and Coates streets,
representing property to the value of betwoen two ami
three millions of ilollaia.
Second. Second street with ita railroad 1 rack is too nar
row to be obstructed with market wagons, rendering travel
almost imiwiasible'rtr rf'ii in every weok.
Third. Tho timo has long since passed when this market
proved to no of any advantage to the business of the
street, from the tact that, with only a very fow eioi-p-tions.it
has ceased to be used by legitimate farm era
but ia occupied by those personating farmers, who re
side but a few squares from thuir stunts; who
own neither farms or horses, but who invJ3t a few
dollars in dilapidated wagons that are kept in some
adjacent tavern yard, and I rem these, on market days
they vend provisions of tho moat inferior duality'
These are the "shinneia," "buttor-pluggera," (so
called from inserting an ounce of good buttor as a "taster"
into a pound of bad;, miildlemou and hucksters, who are
imposing upon the community; aud, without a license, or
yielding any revenue to the city, occupy our pavements
four days in every week, preventing the ingress of cus
tomera to our stores, depriving our citizonj of the froe use
of the public highway, and, while rinsing our businets by
driving it to other localities, bnug us nothing in return as
an equivalent.
Fourth. The bill now before the Legislature doe not
apply to market houses located in the streets, or prevent
farmers from selling their produce to private families at
their residences.
Resolved, '1 hat w hail with satisfaction the Introduc
tion of this bill, and earnos ly ask for its passage
tho support and co-operatiun w eve y member of the'
Bonaio anu itouse.
Resolved, That wa, tho storekeepers and property own
irsof North Socond street. In the name of all that is just
iroUst aa.irt thecountinuunce of that whioh is o nV
ers
