Any rhiUdelphlun wbo reads the New York
newspaper, or extracts therefrom, understands
by this time who Is meant by the Princess
Kditho, the lovely lunatic who is variously
known as Kdith Gilbert, Miss Montez, Blanche
Solomon, CLindia d'Argyle, and so forth. . Every
uch reader will also remember that the last
i heme upon which she ha been creating a
sensation is a charge against the feminine bro
kers, Woodhnll fi CUflin. She says that some
time in May she called upon this tirin, at its
office, with the design of becoming a partner
and lending it her brains in default of money.
During the course of the Interview she claims
that Mrs. Woodhull (who is melodiously known
as "Vic." to her intimate friends) offered to
take care of for her a diamond ring she wore,
worth $2000; that she gave the ring up to
"Vic." but that "Vic." never gave her a receipt
tberefor. Hence the scene in court which has
occupied Fome hours each of the last one or two
days. The hearing took 'place before Justice
Dowling, of the Tombs, and quite a number of
people, some of whom w ore celebrated and some
of whom were notorious, were among the wit
nesses. From what camo to light, it
was sufficiently evident that Edith is
insane, and ought to be placed under
mild restraint. All the ladies who handed in
testimony gave it as their belief that her word
was not worth accepting upon oath that either
by natural constitution, or the "second nature'
of habit, she had become incapable of telling
the truth. The head and front of her romanc
ing was that she was the daughter of Lola Mon
tez and the King of Bavaria the King of the
Jii lgian she at first said, although that mon
nrch is remarkable for the purity of his morals.
Vpon this romantic groundwork she embroi
dered all sorts of contradictory fictions,
unravelling one minute the skein she
had so 6ki)fully tangled the moment before.
fche swore that she was turned out of a Bava
rian convent for misconduct, and perhaps this
is the only part of her story which it is possible
to altogether believe. She says she discovered
four nuns there in a condition that Is only com
mendable in married women, and that tha moral
disorders of the vaiious nunneries in which she
bad bad experience were almost as bad as those
Linted at by Jean Jacques Rousseau and Giusti
niani. She avows having been turned out of
her mother's house In, New Orleans, tho'ugh, of
course, this mother could not have been identi
cal with Lola Montez, her "real" ma. She
affirms that she walked almost the entire dis
tance from New Orleans to New York, and that
the pawned . her watch for $40, in order to
t-upport herself on the journey. She represented
herself to be a sRilful chemist and aa
accomplished linguist, but a closer acquaint
ance with her of those to whom she made this
statement revealed the fact that she was equally
ignorant of the affinities of gases and the rela-
lions of grammar, and that the principles of
molecular attraction were as much a mystery to
i.er as the ordinary rules of syntax, Since re
fidingin tbiB city, which she had doue ever
-ince last January, she has lived around among
Lcr new-made friends, no one appears exactly to
know how. She appears to have had a great
Jaculty for Imposing upon people women's
right women, retired actresses, and brokeresses,
indiscriminately. She foisted herself on
Matilda Heron, who savs she tended her for
three days and three nights as carefully as
though Edith had been her own child,
the engaged rooms at the Astor House
at the rate of $19 per day, and ran up bills
w hich 6he was totally unable to liquidate. She
borrowed a dress from "Vie. "to wear upon the
occasion of her lecture, and she secured the
prestige of beiDg introduced by Mrs. EliAbeth
Cady Stanton. She went down to Washington
i u order to feel public sentiment there with re
spect to "Vic.'a" aspirations toward the White
I f ouse, and she appears to have imposed, to a
most marvellous extent, upon quite a quantity
if men and women who have the reputation of
Leing exceptionably sharp. Only three things
are known about her with any degree of cer
tainty, namely: that she Is insane, that she has
no money, and that she is not the daughter of
Lola Montez.
Amunenienta.
Theatricals and amusements generally have
reached their lowest point of dullness. One
after another the theatres are closing. Wallack's
still hangs out The lied Light; the Olympic
closes next Saturday; Booth's, which it was
originally intended to keep open all summer,
the Saturday after; the wretched affair called
the Tammany departed this life a fortnight ago,
and Mr. Fox of your city has purchased the
chairs and "fixings" for his new (Jhesnut Street
Theatre. Mr. Daly Intends "feeding his little
flock,'' ad be terms it, until the middle or end
of July. The only amusement people will re
ceive daring the summer solstice must come
through a straw if it comes at all. Consequently
the new enterprise of German opera bouffe at
Terrace Garden promises to be the only
fcummer success in the way of public en
tertainment. Ten ace Garden is the name given
to an enclosure whose entrance lson Fifty-eighth
Etreet, a little west of Third avenue. It takes
its name from the series of light and attractive
terracca that gently rise one above another upon
three eidea. These terraces, some of which are
under cover, are flanked by a profusion of trees
and a number of lamps, which disperse just suffi
cient light to make the scene romantic. Stalls
where while beer and lagei beer are purchasable,
and creams and Ices are to be had, are encoun
tered at lntervalsl and a long bar is besieged by
thirsty drinker to the tune of seven deep. The
chief attraction, however.ls to be foundlnallttle
fummer theatre, capable of accommodating
about five hundred sitters. The stage is
so very small and the height of the proscenium
eo very much below the ordinary standard, that
the whole arrangement somethiug resembles the
booths at fairs which one reads about and some
times sees imitated in fair-scenes upon the
ttage. Here Larbe Blew and other specimens
vt opera bouffe which require little spectacular
display are to be produced, with. Pauline
Canissa and Theodore Uabelmann as the ehlef
performers. The audience la mostly composed
f Germans, who seem very much pleased. , The
. attendance was very full last night.

A C'ry fr More Water.
To the L'tUtur of the Evening Telegraph.
Philadelphia. Fountain Sociitv,
Office, No. 1513 Walnut Sr., June 23, 1870.
My Dkah Sik: It is reported that the re
lapsing fever in Bedford street is on the In
crease, and the suffering in that neighborhood
beyond description and I have wlthiu a day or
two past been urgently solicited by the medical
' attendants and others to erect a few fountains
d a caiilury measure, and as a prob.lo maaiii
&f prevtciiDg the further increase of the disease.
This may be readily believed when we are
af fiired that in the streets and houses of the
)or there is not a drop ff water either to
a My the cravings of natnre or the no less im
portant necessity of cleanliness. Men, women,
and children never know the luxury of water in
the form of a bath, and go for weeks and
months without washing either the.lr faces or
hands, saying nothing of the filthy clothing
alxnit their persons.
Disease is carried from one to the other, and,
if not soon arrested, will spread to the other
parts of the city and involve ns in a general and
deadly epidemic. Under these circumstances I
have not stopped to inquire into the causes nor
to ceneure the neglect of duty on the part of the
city authorities in not providing against such
wholesale destruction of human life.' It is suffi
cient to know that the evil is upon us, and must
be checked by every means in our power, or we
must submit to the frightful consequences of Its
onward march.
I have therefore ordered six troughs and six
fountains to Ihj erected immediately in the in
fected district, and as the funds of the society
are at present inadequate to meet the expense,
I make an appeal to you, as I shall do to the
clergymen of our city, to lay the subject before
their congregations on Sunday next, and take
up a collection for this special object. Hoping,
my dear sir, that you will excuse me in present
ing this appeal, and that your kind heart will
respond promptly and generously to my re
quest, with much respect, your obedient ser
vant, Wilson C. Swann,
President P. F. Society.

POLITICAL.
SECOND CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT.
Jo the Editor of The Evening Telegraph.
Having taken great interest in the vital ques
tions which havo lor years past been under con
sideration, yet unsettled, in our National Con
gress, I take the liberty of making a suggestion
for the settlement of the difficulty which has
arisen in the selection of a nominee from the
Second Congressional district.
Neither of the gentlemen claiming to be the
nominee has satisfactory established his power
to secure a majority of the votes of the conven
tion, consequently it would be exceedingly
unwise to present either as the choxen candi
dldate, and worse than folly to present bolh upon
a divided ticket. I am of opinion the people
desire a cbuoge in the representation from this
city, for it is evident the present Congress does
not understand the wants of the country, and is
hence unable to relievo us from the evils threat
ening our commercial interests.
We have far too many lawyers In our National
Councils. Whai we want is practical business
men, who from business experience in the ware
house, manufactory or workshop are far better
prepared to judge oi trie requirements ot the
nation than are merely professional men.
Both the gentlemen claiming the nomination
are lawyers. Let the convention again assemble.
drop Mesers O'Neill and Creeley and nominate
an experienced business man, say John Price
Wetherill, who is so well known in Philadelphia
as an upright, honest, and intelligent business
man, luuy competent for the position.
Yours, D. 8.
June 17th, 1870.
FOURTH CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT.
OKNEEAL WILLIAM B. THOMAS NOMINATED.
A meeting irrespective ot party was held
last night in Green Hill Hall by those in favor
of the nomination ot General William a.
Thomas to represent the Fourth district in Con
gress. The lollowicg officers were selected:
President, Charles . Abbott; V lce-f residents,
S. E. Malone, George F. Hoffman, Robert 8.
Heed, Godfrey Keebler, Wm. Scott, Win. Brlce,
John C. Snowden, Thomas K.emble, Dr. 8. J. W.
Mintzer, W. J. llanna, L. J. Graetf, Edward D.
Stokes, Edwin J. Howlett. Samuel L. Clements,
John Dubarry, Captain T. Clegg, Colouel Max
Einstein, 8. Jones Garter, John W. Garber;
Secretaries, juiwara it,. Jones, is. 11. Graham,
Stephen N. Winslow, Colouel A. E. Griffith.
Resolutions were adopted declaring the pre
sent mode of nominating candidates a failure,
and advocating the system of nominating by
a direct vote ot the people for the candidates,
setting forth that in the present depressed con
dition of business, the community, suffering
from oppressive taxation, urgently demand re
lief; that the public debt is being paid off too
rapidly, and should be reduced at the rate of one
hundred millions of dollars per annum; that the
revenue should be collected from tobacco, cigars.
and other luxuries; that the Income tax expired
by limitation, and should not be re-enacted; that
a tariff, wnicii win adequately protect American
manufactures is a prime necessity; that Phila
delpbia mainly owes her wealth, growth, and
greatness to the fostering principles of protec
tion; that they know of no better custodian of
the city's interests th- one who bad been a
merchant and a manufacturer all his business
Bfe, and whose practical knowledge is equal In
value to inv thftorfttical Information admired In
an attorney's office; that protection, as a part of
the policy of the Government, is dependent upon
the practical business men who are returned to
Congress, and concluding as follows:
Jit-soloed, That we hereby nominate General
William B. Thomas as the people's candidate
for Congress In the Fourth Congressional dis
trict, recommending him as a man whose
ability is unquestionable, whose lutegitty ii
indisputable.aud whose reword is unimpeachable
John Welsh, E. J. Howlett, Colonel A. tC.
Griffith, J. C. Suowden, aud Geueral Max Ein
stein ere appointed a comtnittsa tjlufnu
General Thomas of hit nomination. In a short
time they returned, bringing that gentleman
tlinn. lie raid:
My oomneUtor In this ranvaas Is a distin
guished gentleman, formally declared by his
friends to be the only man In all the district
qualified to represent H in the Congress of the
nation. If this be indeed the cae, it becomes
their duty to place some bright and precocious
youth from the High School in training with the
Judge, upon whose shoulders his mantle may
descend, lest ry Indisposition or other unavoid
able providential interposition he might become
incapacitated for the performance of his duties,
and utter distraction therefore come upon us.
,My first recollection ot Judge Kelley was at a
country village, near by where I then resided,
about the year 1840. We were then both mem
bers of the Democratic party, though I had
avowed myself in favor of free soil, free speech
and free men, the principles, as I understood
in em, or mat great statesman ana cnainpion ot
liberty. Thomas Jefferson, whom I always wor
shipped as my political idol. (Applause") The
Judge at that meeting delivered a speech which
abounded in the most extravagant laudations of
the Institution of slavery and denunciation of
those who had the temerity to oppose its exten
sion to new territory. He continued a, consis
tent member of the Democratic party, sustain
ing the institution of slavery and denouncing
those who opposed it, until the vear 181'., when,
having submitted bis name to the Judicial Con
vection of that party as a candidate for a seat
on the Common Pleas bench, aud having, by a
written document, pledged himself to abide by
its e'ecision and support its nominee ne was
thrown overboard, and In violation of his pledge
accepted another nomination, and was elected.
How long the Judge would have continued to
make pro-slavery speeches, had he succeeded In
obtaining the Democratic nomination for the
judgeship, it is not necessary now to inquire.
lhe speaker ulso declared himself to be in fa
vor of a repeal in the income tax, and spoke as
follows in regard to Judge Kclley's position on
this subject:
in the discussion in the Committee of the
Whole upon the rc-onactment of the income tax,
General Logan asked the Judge why, If he was
opposed to the tax, he did not so vote in the
Committee of Ways and Means, when it was un
der consideration in that committee. 1 he Judge
replied (I quote his own language): "I did not
at the first vote in favor of the entire abolition
of the Income tax." He was In favor, dur.ng
the earlv consideration of the subject, of con
tinuing the tax in the modified and more objec
tionable form in which it untimately passed the
House. Or iu other words, he was in favor of
letting off a portion of the tax to satisfy the
then partially developed sentiment against it.
while keeping its inquisitorial features, and
above all, retaining the entire army of office
holders, which were essential to his nomination.
and who would have been dischaged, had the law
not been re-enacted. Applause.
In regard to the tax ou coal General Thomas
spoke as follows: A combination existed in the
coal regions to enhance the price of coal by
diminishing the supply. The conspirators suc
ceeded thereby in bolstering up the price of coal
from fifty to one hundred per ceut. above what
it should be furnished to the consumer. This is
a matter of small consideration with the rich,
but to the poor man, with his limited Income,
cheap coal is an article of prime necessity. Our
only remedy is in tne repeal ot ttie duty on lm
ported coal, until the "dog in the manger"
policy ot the operatives in the coal regiou is
abandoned. Judge Kclley voted against the
reoeal of this duty, and in favor of compelling
all our citizens, rich aud poor, to pay double
price for their fuel.
In regard to a protective tariff he paid:
Protection itself needs to be protected. But
has that been doue in Congress? Judge Kellev's
array of figures looks well on paper, but so far
as we know, they have convinced no member ot
Congress who is opposed to the interests of
Pennsylvania. On the contrary, his course has
resulted in bringing against bur special indus
tries the inveterate hatred and jealousy of all
the rival interests of the West and New England,
and instead of conciliating enemies he has really
alienated friends. I charge against him that he
has attempted the impossible, and has, there
fore, endangered the possible. In proof of thi9
I point to the tariff bill now before Congress,
which does not give satisfaction to the people
of this city and State, and which will inevitably
fail to grve the manufacturers of this importaut
district the permanent protection they desire.
I would adopt as a tariff such a scale of duties
as would produce the largest possible sum that
could be obtained without doing Injustice to any
department of industry or any considerable
division of the people. I Applause . In the
imposition of these duties 1 would discriminate
so as to give protection to such interests as
could be aided without injury to others, and so
as to collect the greatest revenue from articles
of luxury, which are mainly consumed by the
rich. At the same time I would admit the abso
lute necessaries of life free. Applause..
Geueral Thomas closed his speech as follows:
I have spoken very frankly upou this subject,
for it is right that I should express your views
in nominating me, and my own reasons for ac
cepting the honor. Of my own position I may
6ay a lew words in conclusion. I have labored
with others for forty-five years to build up what
is now called the Republican party to promote,
as I hoped it would, the true Jelfersoulau Demo
cratic doctrine of human liberty and human
rights, and in this I have not been disappointed.
With very few exceptions I have voted for all
the candidates presented to me by the Republi
can conventions. I voted for Geueral Grant at
the last Presidential election, aud labored to
secure his election, and yet the friends of Judge
Kelley have assumed to strike my name from
the registry of the party, aud have closed the
doors of Spring Garden Hall, a hall belonging
to the people, against my friends, because tuey
contemplated my election to Congress. Ai
plause. J,
A mechanic here arose and announced that
he had been desired by some of the mechanics
and workingmen presejit to ask General
Thomas to deliue bis position on the contract
system of coolie labor and the indiscriminate
granting of lands to chartered monopolies.
General Thomas answered that bo was opposed
to both. He also said that he thought that the
time hud come for a geueral amnesty towards
the late rebels.
The meeting then adjourned amid great en
thusiasm and loud cheers for General W. B.
Thomas as candidate for Congress from the
Fourth District.
TILE DEMOCRATIC CAMPAIGN.
APritESS OF THE SENATE AND REPRESENT ATI VE
CAt'CTS "ECONOMY, HONESTY, AND THE CON
STITUTION." Washington, June 24 The Democratic
Senators and members in Congress at a caucus
held last night agreed upon an address which
was to-day signed and issued as follow:
To our Fellow-Citizen of the United States,
Friends of Constitutional, Economical, aiid
Honest Government:
The undersigned beg leave to call your atten
tion to the peculiar lmjortance of the elections
which take place this year, and respectfully to
submit some suggestions for your considera
tions. By the State Legislatures to be elected,
nearly one-third of the United States Senate
will be chosen; nearly all the members of the
next House of Representatives are to be elected
next fall. Upon coming elections, then, depeuds
the question whether the Democratic aud con
servative element in the euate shall be in
creased, and whether that element shall have
a majority in the House of Representatives, aud,
as a consequence, whether we shall have a con
stitutional, economical, and honest Government,
or a continuance of revolutionary, extravagant,
and wasteful partisan rule. Whether we shall
have general, uniform, just, and constitutional
legislation, with reasonable taxatlou and frugal
expenditure, or unconstitutional, partUl, unjust
class legislation, with oppressive and uuoqaal
taxation and wasteful expenditure.
That we have strong reasous to hope for a
favorable result is plainly apparent. The elec
tion already held clearly shows that the tidd of
reform has set in with a power that cannot be
resisted, if no blunders be committed by the
frauds of reform. If .they do their duty and act
j vigor uLd btcadfaetnets, there' 1 every reason to
hope that their efforts will be rewanled by suc
cess. Let there be no dissension about minor
matters; no tme lost in the discussion of dead
issues; no manifestation of sorrow or proscrip
tlve feeling; no sacrifice of the cause to gratify
personal ambition or resentment, and let the
best men be chosen for candidates and we
mny hope to , see our country redeemed
from misrule. And in this connectloi we beg
leave to say a word to our fellow
citizens of the Southern States: Do not risk
the loss of Senators or Representatives, by
electing men wbo cannot take the test Oath, or
who are under the disability imposed by the fif
teenth amendment. Whatever may be said as
to the validity of that amendment, or of the
Test-Oath act, you may rest assured that Sena
tors elected by the votes of members of legisla
tures wbo are held by the radicals to be thus
disqualified, will not be permitted to take their
scats, and that members of the House of Repre
ienlatlves thus disqualified will also be ex
cluded. It is the plainest dictate of practical
w isdom not to incur any such risks. We hope
soon to see the day when all disabilities will be
removed,, but, . in the meantime, do not, we
entreat you, lose the opportunity to strengthen
the Democratic and Conservative force in Con
gress, and the possibility, nay, probability, of
obtaining a majority In the- next House of Re
presentatives, by putting it in the power of our
adversaries to overthrow or disregard your elec
tions.
