TUESDAY, APRIL 5, 1870.
ZST The Evening Telegraph, from
its original establishment, has been in the
receipt of telegraphic news from the New
York Associated Press, which consists of
the Tribune, Times, Herald, World,
Sun, Journal of Commerce, Evening Post,
Commercial Advertiser, and Evening Ex
press. The success which has attended
our enterprise is, in itself, a sufficient evi
dence of the freshness, fullness, and relia
bility of the news which we have received
from this source. We have now entered
Into a special contract by which The
Evening Telegraph has the exclusive
use of the news furnished in the afternoon
by the Associated Press to its own mem
bers, the North American, Inquirer,
Ledger, Press, Age and German Democrat,
of this city, and the leading journals of the
East, North, West and South ; and hereafter
The Telegraph will be the only evening
paper published in this city in which the
afternoon despatches of the Associated
Press will appear.
ANOTHER PUBLIC BUILDING BILL.
Both branches of the Legislature yesterday
passed a bill which plaoes the publio building
question on a new footing. The House, how
ever, made a slight amendment to the bill
passed by the Senate which has not yet been
ratified by that body, so that the fate of the
new project is still involved in some uncer
tainty. Some of its provisions will meet the
cordial approval of the citizens of Philadel
phia. It recognizes, ;for the first
time, the fact that tax-payers should
be consulted, direotly, in regard to the
choice of a site, and they are permitted
to determine by their votes at a general elec
tion whether Washington or Pena Square
shall be chosen. The Independence Square
project is very properly killed outright, and
the sentiment whioh forbids a perpetual dese
cration of the birthplace of freedom is thus
respected, for the contemplated law provides
that whether Washington or Penn Square is
chosen as the site, "all the present buildings
on Independence Square, except Independ
ence Hall, shall be removed, and the ground
thereon placed in good condition by said
commission." In the proposed popular
vote npon the respective merits of Penn
Square and Washington Square as sites for
the municipal buildings, one of the provi
sions of the law is adroitly designed to give
an undue advantage to the latter. The elec
tion is not to be a free and unbiassed ohoioe,
or a pure and simple vote on the two loca
tions. The bill provides that if Washington
Square is selected, then, Penn Square is to be
appropriated to the use of the Franklin Insti
tute, Academy of Fine Arts, Academy of
Natural Sciences, and the Philadelphia Li
brary. The natural effect of this provision
will be to array the influence of all the
friends of these institutions in be
half of Washington Square, even if
their disinterested judgment would not ap
prove that locality as a site for the municipal
buildings, and thus to bring a powerful rein
forcement to the ranks of the party which
opposes a westward march of the courts and
publio offices. This provision is evidently
intended as a balsam for the wounds of the
Independence Square party, and at the same
time to console, in part, the advooates of
Penn Square if they are defeated in the une
qual contest which is proposed. Following the
system which has lately been adopted, the
Legislature, while it leaves to the people the
right of deciding, under the conditions iin
posed, the site of the new buildings, arro.
gates to itself the privilege of deoiding in ad
vance who shall erect them, and it names a
commission to perform this work, the only
popular element of whioh is to consist of the
Mayor and Presidents of Councils, or three
men in a body of eleven. The commission,
however, embraces the names of a number of
talented, honorable, and public-spirited citi
zens, and, as a whole, it is formed of good
material.
THE LOSS OF THE ONEIDA.
The National House of Representatives
yesterday adopted a joint resolution directing
the Secretary of the Navy to make a thorough
investigation with reference to the sinking of
the Oneida, and the oonduct of Captain Eyre,
of the British steamer Bombay. It is emi
nently proper that the Government of the
United States should take official aotion with
regard to this sad affair, and make such an
investigation of its circumstances as will
plaoo it in a proper light before the world.
It is important that it should be known defi
nitely whether the offloera of the Oneida
were responsible for the ootlision in the first
plaoe, as upon this point there is considerable
obscurity and doubt. So far as the captain
of the Bombay is concerned, his disgraceful
conduot in leaving the sinking ship
with all on board of her
to perish, is sufficiently established
to make him for ever infamous. Our Gov
ernment, however, owes it to itself and to
the brave men of the Oneida that they should
le relieved from all blame in the matter if
i possible, by showing, as far as it is possible
to show anything of the kind, exaotly how
the collision ooourred, and to prove the guilt
of Captain Eyre more clearly than it was pos
Bible to do before a board of Englishmen in
Yokohama. Independently of every other
consideration, it is a matter of some impor
' tanoo that it should be known whether the
collision ooourred on aoconnt of a difference I
of understanding with regard to the right of
way between the commanders of the two
vessels. If it can be proved that any such
misunderstanding existed, measures ought to
be taken to procure the adoption of some
definite international rules on the subjeot
that will prevent any such disasters in the
future. ,
TOP-KNOT, COME DOWN!
The Democratic Attorney-General of New
Jersey, following in the wake of the Demo
cratic Governor of Maryland, has decided, in
answer to a despatch from the Mayor of
Princeton, that "as a practical present ques
tion of the hour, the right of the colored man
to vote, if he is otherwise qualified, should be
treated as settled in his favor." This answer
evidently goes against the grain of the De
mocratic exponnder of the law. He does not
like to make it. He avows his belief that
"unconstitutional force was the means of pro
curing the ratification of the fifteenth amend
ment," and he cherishes a vague hope that
"on this ground it may finally be held by all
branches of the Government never to have
been in force." But for the present, and as
a practical matter, he deems discretion the
better part of valor. He warns the Demo
cratic election judges of New Jersey that if
they resist the amendment they will get
themselves and their favorite candidates into
trouble. He thinks they can refuse to take a
colored person's vote "without moral guilt,"
but he warns them that suoh action will sub
ject them to the penalties of the law, and to
a civil suit, while "the person eleoted
may, if the votes refused would have
defeated him, lose his election." The only
possible hope he holds out to the antagonists
of the law is the meagre chance already re
ferred to that the amendment may finally be
declared to have been adopted by illegal
means, but as he does not wish to see many
of his party frie nds victimized by a danger
ous experiment, he tells them that "one or
two cases in the whole State will be all that
can be of any good whatever." This exposi
tion of the effect of the amendment in nulli
fying all State statutes which prohibit col
ored suffrage is nearly as conclusive as the
most radical Republican could desire, and it
foreshadows the rapid approach of a universal
recognition of the political rights of the citi'
zens of Afri can descent.
THE CHAMPION OF TEE WOMEN.
Theodore Tiltok having been appointed
by whom we are not informed a general
commissioner on female emancipation, has
issued a "card extraordinary," greeting the
American people, and requesting all who
take a friendly interest in woman's enfran
chisement to send their names and those of
their neighbors as fast as possible to the
office of the Independent, to be inserted npon
Mr. Tilton's roll of honor. Now that Theo
dore has taken the field in good earnest, and
made his wishes clearly known to the
people of the United States, we have not the
slightest doubt in the world that all objec
tions to female suffrage will vanish like the
morning mist, and that a new amendment to
the Constitution will be introduced immedi
ately into Congress, and rushed through the
State Legislatures in time for a grand cele
bration on next fourth of July. Many of the
people of the United States did not know
exactly how Tilton stood with regard to this
matter, and while waiting to hear from him
definitely they were in doubt as to the proper
course to adopt. Now that he has spoken,
however, and in no ambiguous words, and has
accepted the important and responsible
position of Commissioner Extraordinary
on Female Emancipation, the least
that the people of the United States
can do to oblige him is to respond instantly
and unanimously, without regard to the post
age on their letters, which, from anything
we can gather from Mr. Tilton's "card," he
does not undertake to pay. Indeed, who
would consider suoh a small matter as post
age when, by the mere expenditure of a
three-cent stamp, one's name can be inscribed
npon the "roll of honor," and be harried
down to an admiring posterity, for Mr. Tilton
assures the people of the United States that
"the day will come when your children and
children's children will be proud of the
reoord." Here is glory awaiting all who are
willing to take it, and we can assure our
readers, npon the authority of the commis
sioner himself, that "Anybody sending in
one envelope all the names in a family, vil
lage, or association will render a helpful ser
vice." In a large city like this it would per
haps be well to have ward canvassers, to pay
their own expenses, who might soon be able
to collect an imposing array of names, and if
there is anything like the unanimity that we
expect, labor could be saved by merely send
ing to Mr. Tilton a copy of the last edition of
the "Philadelphia Directory." It is consi
dered as highly essential to the success of the
cause that the friends of woman should re
spond immediately, so that thoir letters will fly
into the Independent office like a snow storm,
There is danger in delay, thinks Theodore,
Perhaps some of the women may change their
minds and not wish to be enfranchised, in
which case Theodore's cake will be all dough,
bo he is anxious to have the matter settled
at once while the enthusiasm is at its
height. The ball is rolling, and we hope that
our readers will help to shove it along and
keep it in motion, if only for the sake of
gratifying Theodore Tilton, whose feelings
were doubtless hurt lost week at only being
able to publish the names of hack women 8
rightists in the Independent, and he would
doubtless be more than gratified if he could
get a response to his appeal from a few at
least of the people of the United States out
side of the little circle of vituperative females
and weak-chested men who have hitherto
represented the cause of female suffrage, with
but little sympathy from the olass of person?
most immediately oonoerned. The women
of the country owe it to themselves to speak
promptly and decidedly on this subject in
response to Mr, Tilton's card.
A resolution was introduced yesterday by
Mr. Ingorsoll, of Illinois, in the Nationat
House of Representatives, instructing the
Post Office Committee to inquire into the ex
pediency of extending a free delivery system
to all cities containing a population of not
less than two hundred thousand inhabitants,
and to State capitals containing not less than
one hundred thousand. We hope that this
proposition will receive a favorable considera
tion at an early day. There is no good reason
why the Post Office facilities might not be
extended to a much greater extent than at
present, and even if it were to be found an
additional expanse, the oonvenienoe to the
publio that would ensue from the adoption of
a free delivery system in the large oitios
would more than compensate for the outlay.
If, however, Congress will abolish the frank
ing privilege, with all its enormous abuses,
an arrangement of this kind that would be a
practical benefit to an immense number of
people would probably not make the expenses
of the Post Office Department as great as
they are at present. At any rate the matter
la well worthy of a fair, oandid, aid thorough
discussion, and a proper amount of attention
from Congress.
Ruodm Island to-morrow holds her annual elec
tion for the choice of State officers and a Legisla
ture. The anterrlQed and undismayed Democracy
have nominated a full ticket, Just (or the fun of the
thing, while the Republicans have honored all the
present State offloera with a renomlnatlen, which Is,
of oourse, equivalent to a re-election. The two
rival tickets are as follows :
Kepttbllmn.
Governor Seth Palelford.

The remembrance of the Democratic victory of
1860 is the only consolation the Democracy have,
and they cling to It as they do to the remembrance of
a "white man's government." The last Legislature
Stood, in the Senate 2T Republicans to 6 Democrats,
and In the House of Representatives 61 Repnbllcans
to 11 Democrats a Republican majority on Joint
ballot of 71. The next Legislature will stand about
the same, perhaps a little "more so."
Tub Receipts op Inteiinal Rkvekcb for the
first three quarteisof the current flscal year, com
prising the nine months ending March 81, 1870, as
compared with the corresponding months of the pre
vious year, were as follows :

Total $124,008,602-71 1103,499,834-23
This shows a total gatu in tlio nine months of
$20,509,268-48. The total receipts of the flscal year
ending Jane 30, 1369, were $159,000,000, while Com
missioner Delano estimated the receipts of the cur
rent fiscal year at $175,600,000, an anticipated gain of
$16,000,000. As shown above, the gain already ex
ceeds this estimate by more than $4,000,000 ; bat
the forced withdrawal of whisky from bond during
the last quarter of the previous flscal year swelled
up the receipts during that period so greatly that
the last quarter of the current flscal year Is likely
to show a decrease, bo that the estimate of Commis
sioner Delano will probably come very near exact
fulfilment.
Tim California. Wins Tra.de grows In extent
and Importance. Except where the land Is more than
three thousand feet above the level of the sea, the
entire State Is well adapted to the cultivation of the
grape, which Is grown from the extreme northern
limit of the State to the southern, a distance of six
hundred miles. It was estimated that there were
twelve million fruit-bearing vines In 1864, while this
year the number is put at thirty millions, the amount
of land under grape cultivation being about forty-two
thousand acres. If all the grapes grown were used
In the manufacture of wine, the product, it Is esti
mated, would be thirty million gallons. The scale
on which this peculiar Industry Is conducted may be
judged from the fact that one manufacturer alone
produces nearly half a million gallons annually.
