PHILADELPHIA. DOGS. From the N. T. Triimn. Dogs, we regret to say, still prove the ob stinate nn welcome apparitions that stand be tween oar sister city and her happiness. Other communities are bestirring themselves with regard to railroads, steamers, .or other great national topics; but the City of Bro therly Love still Bits solitary, brooding over the momentous question: "What shall we do with our dogs ? ' The cause of this solici tude it is impossible for us outsiders rightly to comprehend; whether the canine population has really become alarmingly ex cessive, or whether it arises from that rare refinement of charitable spirit which charac terises the neighboring village. We incline to the latter supposition. From a careful study of our Philadelphia exchanges we are forced to the belief that every shape and form of imaginable human Buffering has been there largely provided for, and that the phi-' lanthropists, in sheer desperation for new worlds to conquer, are compelled to turn to the dogs. So entirely is the city free from the poor and needy human beings to be found elsewhere, and so comfortable is life to every Philadelphian, that the benevolent who wish to confer a gift on their employes or associates can find nothing else to bestow than a graveyard lot. Tombstones are now quite en regie to adorn Christmas trees, or as pleasant friendly offerings. It is no wonder, in this beatifio state of completion and complacency, that the yet uncared-for vagabond curs should have risen like a ghost to trouble joy and have become a matter of deep publio concern. For the last year Philadelphia's fair women and scientific men have takenjgAnnsel together. An asylum was proposed,-jjjJj9bch homeless dogs of the nobler breed emSajFreceive that bodily com fort and sweet spiritual sympathy which gentle woman is always ready to bestow. Dogs of the baser sort were sent to that' bourne from which no traveller is supposed to return, especially if he be travelling on four feet. The asylum was not built, owing to some unreasonable stinginess and outcry from persons lacking in the nobler sensibili ties. The ladies proposed to call it a pound. Sat the majority were still nnmollified. Philadelphia stood in grief and doubt, a wan dering cur on every street without a local habitation or a name. Her lamentations over them for a year past could be heard of all men; her priests sighed, her virgins were enacted, and she was in bitterness. Last week an idea came to her relief; but whether it emanated from the brain of one of the ladies, or the physicians whom they had summoned to the council, it is impossible to disoover. The dogs were all collected, a tub constructed of a suitably grave and funereal aspect, the animals committed to it, and closely sealed. With what solemn emotions this was done we leave our readers to conjecture, and how this novel burial service was watched by the fair priestesses as a triumph of humanity and science. Carbonic acid gas was then intro duced. Silence for half an hour was observed. The sarcophagus was then opened; but in stead of a cohort of dead dogs, each with a smile of gratitude for his euthanasia upon his fowls, behold the whole mangy troop frisk sg and lively to the last degree. The dogs were Philadelphia dogs, and de clined to be done to death in any mode not in use in the days of Penn. Science and hu manity were worsted. Murder m a fine art was a failure. The ladies and physicians beat an ignoble retreat, and the dogs were "punched full of deadly holes" by the police, according to immemorial usage. Since then, additional gloom has fallen upon our staid sister. The ghosts of the unscientifically mur dered dogs rest heavy on her soul, and be fore the unavailing pound, like Constanoe mourning for her child's fate, there she and Sorrow sit. MANACLES. From the X. T. World. Bear-Admiral Dahlgren he who, years ago, invented bottle-shaped cannon, but did not use them very effectively during the late war baa recently written a letter to Mr. Bennett Forbes, of Boston, in commemora tion of the gallant Williams of the Oneida. In it he mentions, properly enough, that Williams, then a lieutenant, headed the assault which, on the night of the 8 th of September, 18G2, was made, without the co operation or even the knowledge of the army, on Fort Sumter. He then adds and it is this which moves our curiosity as a mere matter of history: "He there was made prisoner (with the gallant Preston, and had the honor of wearing manacles in a Rebel prison." Having read in the good book of 'the "bonds, of iniquity," and elsewhere of the "fetters of verse, ' and even of the "manacles of rhyme," we are at a loss to determine whether the gallant Admiral is speaking literally or figuratively, and whether he means to state as a matter of fact that Mr. Williams or any other unresisting prisoner of war was put in shackles. Bad as the Rebels may have been, we have never before heard this imputed to them; and, indeed, amidst all the horrors and atrocities of that wretched strife there always, or at least generally, seemed to be a humanizing in fluence, generated, as it were, by professional associations and sympathies, which forbade harshness of this sort to captives of rank on either side. It was made matter of reproach to General MoClellan by the Covode gang that he treated one of Johnston's staff with courtesy, when taken prisoner on the Chickahorniny; and we all know that when McCall and Reynolds were. about the same time, captured, they were for a time until civilian busy bodies, those pests of war, interposed lodged in the best hotel . at Richmond and treated kindly. MoCill used in his grave way to tell, with as near an approach to jocularity as he ever ventured on, that, being on foot and fatigued when taken, he was, in spite of remonstrance, mounted on Wicfall's horse, and thus taken to General Lee s headquarters, the hilarious and generous Texan walking as best he oould alongside. We are free to say that we had rather dwell in memory on these traditions of military courtesy and mercy than on the facts or figures of our acrid Admiral. If it be true that Colonel Elliott, who on the occasion re ferred to commanded at Sumter, aad whom even our loyal Lossing pictorially praises, did shjackle Williams ana rreston, or anybody, after the assault was over, it should ha W If false, it will be wjeff for Dahlgren to be more cautious in his metaphorical exorbi tances. For one reason apropos of manSAgj we shall be glad if it turn out to be trifSr We have heretofore blushed under the belief that the enormity of maaaoling prisoners of war of rank was rather on our shoulders, and have found consolation in one notable instance the fact that the shame of it waa due, not to we have "On the morning of the 23d of May," says a loyal his torian and gallant man for suoh were both Dr. Craven and Mr. Weed's dear friend Ilal pine -"on the morning of the 2.'d of May a yet bitterer trial was in store for the proud ; spirit of the captive a trial severer, proba bly, than has ever in modern times been in flicted upon any one who had enjoyed suoh j eminence. This morning Jefferson Davis was shackled." At the end of exactly the period when, in ancient days even of civil war, the expiating sacrifice was offered and the sins of all washed out, we read of this inci dent of our modern story with a pang. "There is not a true-hearted man or woman in the land, be their political prejudices what they may, who does not wish this deed of un necessary cruelty had not been done; and it is one of the administration secrets, which has been most carefully guarded, by whose order or at whose instance it was done. We doubt not, the truculent civilian busybody had his share in it, or some amateur soldier who either had a personal wrong to avenge or a political end to gain. On the 22d of May, Colonel Roberts, of the regular service, was relieved of the command of Fortress Mon roe, and in tin room was pat a New England hero baptized, oddly 'enough, Napoleon Bonaparte (ob, St. Helena and Sir Hudson!) -who was smarting under the recollection that, but one month before, he had been soundly thrashed by the Rebels at Farmville, in the very last skirmish in Virginia. Coin cidently with him came, so says Craven, "Major-General Halleck and the Hon. Charles A. Dana, Assistant Secretary of War, under whose immediate inspection the prisoners were landed and marched to their casemate." We do not read that they went away, and have a right to infer that they did not, until the voluntary or delegated work was done, and they bad listened with delight, not at all like Henry's on the eve of Aginoourt, to "armorers closing rivets up" on the wasted limbs of a feeble prisoner in their hands. It is a sad thought, think of it as we may. The deed was, according to the Talleyrand formula, worse than a crime a huge, stupid blunder, having for it3 direct and permanent effect the awakening of pity and sympathy where, according to the cur rent judgment'of the North, neither was due. The whirligig of even so short a time as three or five years works odd changes. The mana cled prisoner of 1865 was released from all custody loyal radical men of the North gladly entering the bail and becoming respon sible for him and his good behavior; and the whole world of humanity and chivalry will agree with us in saying that the consciousness ot tne sureties is more to be envied tnan are the ghastly memories of those who ordered the shackles and superintended the black smith. THE FENIAN MOVEMENT A SKIRMISH ON THE FRONTIER. From the N. . Herald. The Fenian movement now agitating the telegraph wires throughout the State and country has become somewhat important as a matter of news, about which everybody is talking. If the movement -is not very im portant per ee, it beoomes so from the fact that the Government hn ; taken the trouble to recognize it has probably obtained some in formation which gives a graver aspect to the enterprise than the publio are disposed t attaoh to it, and that the President has issued a proclamation against it, assuming, of course, tnat there is something going on which im plies a violation of the neutrality laws. In adopting tms coarse ueneral urant has fol lowed the example of his predecessor, Andrew Johnson, in 180G, who not only by proclama tion, but by the action of the United States troops, utterly wiped out tne absurd under taking of that time, capturing the provision trains, seizing the ammunition and arresting the military leaders on the frontier. That settled the invasion business for that time. xne news irom ine iron tier snows a gathering of men at various towns and a general movement towards the frontier, of small bodies passing through the different cities north and east of Albany, as well as some migration from the West as far as Detroit and certain parts of Wisconsin. Bat tne more sigmnoant news is that a force of Fenians, three thousand strong, had assembled at jrigeon mil, on Canadian soil. There appears to be no truth in this state ment, and probably not much more truth in all the other reports. The facts are that a few Fenians, about five hundred strong. under command of O'Neill, while advancing from Franklin, Vt., towards the Canadian frontier, were fired upon by some Canadian militia. The lire was returned, and one or two men were shot on both sides. After the ekirmish United States Marshal Foster arrested the Fenian commander, O'Neill, on the spot, and thrusting him into a carriage drove him off to Burlington a prisoner, leav ingas the telegrams say his little army so demoralized thai many of them eagerly turned their faces towards home, and sought means ol transportation from bt. Albans. It is not certain despite the fizzle of Wed nesday that the disturbance is entirely over, but no doubt the arrival of a few regu lar troops under General Meade will disperse the grande armee of General O'Neill. Impotent, foolish, and illegal as this move ment is, and easily put down as it can be by the United States authorities, adventures of this kind should be a warning to England. They are the natural growth of an immense Irish population, almost every man of whom hates England and would bring her to ruin or any portion of her dominions, from Nova Scotia to New Zealand, if opportunity offered. There can be no doubt that this is the spirit of what is called Fenianism. It is the spirit which enables a body of men. no matter what their qualifications or status may be, to get a sufficient number of their coun trymen to Bub&eribe money and furnish re cruits for any expedition upon British soil, such as the last raid on Canada in 18GG. a ad f the present one. Would it not be wise for the British government to consider that there is but an imaginary line between this countrv and Canada, and that Canada will always be a source of Irritation, as well as a weak snot. for the reNtleBS anti-English element in this community? The best thine British states men could do, under these oiroumstanoas. would be to annex Canada to the United States; to pay off the Alabama claims, and then we would hear no more of lawless Fe nian raids. The sympathy of the American people would be withdrawn from all move ments and organizations having such aims as invaHion, whether for conquest or plunder. If England does not act squarely in the matter of the Alabama cldttns, and thus oultirate some better feeling than now exists, Ameri cans may come in time to sympathize more elosely than they 4 witk hostile movements of this kind; or, indeed, the Irish element, which becomes stronger every day, may foroe us ultimately, against our will, into a war the labt thing at present to be expected, end certainly an event most of ail to be de iilored. Tho Fenian fiasco twice repeated does not regular soldiers, but to such as spoken of as civilian bunybodies. prove that because attacks upon the colonial dependencies of Great Britain over the border have failed, there will not remain a disposi tion nere among a large class or our people to encourage, tacitly at least, suoh movements, until the just claims of our Government as to the unsettled Alabama business are at tended to. VACATIONS FOR TEACHERS. From the If. V. Time. It is reported that the Board of Education bas under consideration at the present time the question of allowing longer vacations than have been customary hitherto in our publio schools. It is well known among teachers that the New York ward schools allow less vacation to the teashers than do the echools in any of our rural districts. New England, which has never been accused of injuriously neglecting mental exercises, long since concluded that better work is got out of botn instructor and scholar by allowing a sufficient and healthful time for rest and change of occupation. The high and district schools of that seotion give spring, winter, end Bummer vaoations, amounting together to ten or twelve weeks. The college and Beminaries and private sohoolJ throughout the country allow as much or more. lhe theory among physicians and prudent parents is that the quality of the work of the children s brain, during the remaining nine months, is such as to make up for the dimin ished quantity; while the physique on which all else depends is better preserved by these three months holidays, lhen the labors of the teachers, if faithful and earnest, are ex ceedingly exhausting and wearying, and pro- badly, among women of culture, there is no branch of employment so trying to the ner vous system. As a profession, the teachers are unquestionably the most useful of any, and the poorest paid. Like clergymen, their compensation should be in a longer rest from toil each year, as well as in the greater re Bpect of the community. The future sucoess of our children depends in a large measure on the quality of the teachers labors. This can be best improved by a sufficient rest being granted in the hot season to their bodies and minds. Our New York city schools give generally but six weeks' vacation in summer; and yet, of all parts of the country, this city presents the severest field of labor in the hot weather. Many of the sckools are in crowded and un healthy districts; the teachers, by the 1st of July, are jaded out, and after that date the work accomplished in them is mainly a form. Under the improved methods of teaching such as the "Object System" it should be remembered that the effort is treble what it used to be under the old routine system. The teachers are exhausted sooner. So convinced are the English school reformers of the injury of too much school work, that, even in their cool climate, they have established "half time schools," and consider them the most efficient for young children. In our intense summer, either half sessions or a comolete holiday from the 1st of July till September would, we are convinced, be the best for both pupils and instructors. CAN IT BE TRUE? From the S. T. Sun. That is a startling revelation which the benate s Committee on Retrenchment have made. They have evidenoe that during the Southern Rebellion President Juarez of Mexico was in league with the Confederates, helping them to get off their cotton, and making money by the operation; and supply ing tnem in turn witn arms and ammunition which he had imported into Mexico for the purpose, and on which he also realized a handsome profit. If this be the truth there is nothing baser in the annals of national or personal ingrati tude. Mr. Juarez owed his existence and that of his Government to the United States. We recognized and protected him when he bad not an ally elsewhere, and when his tenure of Mexico was a mere foothold at El Paso. We denied to his enemy, the sham Emperor Maximilian, permission to procure supplies in our markets, and we refused to receive any of the agents he sent to Wash ington, although they came with the loudest professions of friendship. Mr. Romero, the diplomatic representative of the Mexi can Republic, was constantly supported by Mr. Seward and Mr. Lincoln, although no member of the diplomatic corps in Washington -would hold any relations with him. Madame Juarez, the wife of the Mexican President, was received by the Secretary of State and entertained in his own house with impressive and most signifi cant Hospitality, in wnicn even the enemies of Mexico were politely forced to lend their assistance. And finally, Mr. Seward crowned his protracted and brilliant diplomatic de fense of Juarez, and of his Government by crowding the French army of Mexico, leaving the President free to take easy possession of the country, and teach the world a useful lea son in the execution of Maximilian. Such, briefly told, is the history of the Mexican republic and of Its chief from 1861 to 18C5; and now it is most disgusting to be told by a committee or the benate that da ring this period the republican leaders of Mexico were betraying the United States to our enemies and their own, that they were smuggling cotton and smuggling powder, all with the vulgar motive of making money by their treachery. We hope, for the credit of human nature, and for the future of his country, that Mr. Juarez may be able to dis prove and annihilate these imputations; but u lie does not clear them away, he will de serve never to have a friend again, and he will be very sure to get his deserts.
