At the veqnest of the City Executive Com mittee of the Republican party, we publish the following question to Judge McKennaa, of the United States Circuit Court, and his reply thereto: Have the watchers appointed by the Court the r'ght or authority to handle any vote? cast on Tuesday ? Answer No ! 7 HE DUTY OF CITIZENS. One of the chief causes of political corruption is in the apathy displayed with regard to po litical matters by the class of citizens who complain most of the existing evils. There are great numbers of the most intelligeutnen in the community who ought to have a con trolling influence in political matters, and vho could have if they would only make a little exertion, but who are not only abso lutely unknown in political circles, and who are never seen at preliminary meeting-) and delegate elections, and but seldom at the polls. A Presidential election, or one in which some great national issue is involved, may bring out Btieb. men, but on the scarcely less important occasions when members of Congress, members of the Legislature, members of Councils, Judges, and State and municipal officers are to be chosen, they are content to leave the whole matter in the hands of regular political wire pullers, notwithstanding the fact that inte rests of the greatest moment are involved in the selection of proper men to fill offices of the Lighebt trust and responsibility. At the elec tion to-morrow there will undoubtedly be an immense number of stay-at-homes, and the majority of these, we are sorry to say, will be Republicans. These voters should consider that by remaining away from the polls for no other reason than that it will be a Blight in con vet ience and variation from their regular routine to attend to their duties as citizens and deposit their ballots they are giving direct aid and encouragement to the vices that, if not checked, will inevitably destroy our whole political system. It is not merely the right but it is the absolute duty of every citizen to Tote at every election, and those who neglect this duty do a grievous injury not only to themselves but to the whole community. If a party ticket is not in all respects satisfac tory scratch it liberally, and make a ticket that will at least be of an average respectability, but by all means vote some ticket, and aid as far as is possiMo in putting the 'best men into office. We have stringent laws to prevent fraudulent voting, but it is a serious question whether we ought not to have laws also to compel, under severe pains and penalties, legal voters to deposit their ballots; and it ia scarcely too much to say that the man who will not spare the time and take the slight trouble necessary for the performance of his obvious political duties is unworthy to enjoy the benefits of citizenship. To-morrow there are " great number of Very important public c ulcers to be elected, and if our interests are to be properly cared for, the best men must be chosen to re present us in Congress, in the Legislature, in Councils, on the bench, and in our various municipal offices. The number of voters who are not capable of forming intelligent opinions with regard to the worth of the various candi dates is very small, and it is nt pleasant to think that those least capable of votiDg with judgment will be most numerous in their attendance at the polls. It may be considered as certain that the Democrats will cast a full vote to-morrow, and that those who will neglect their duty will be Republicans of the more intelligent clasR, who ought to exercUe a controlling influence instead of leaving our political affairs entirely in the hands of pro fessional po'iticians and the classes who are lea&t capable of managing them properly. We hope sincerely that those of our citizens who have intended to remain away from the polls, or who have debated in their minds whether to do so or not, will give this"subject the consideration it deserves, and vote early if tot often to-morrow. TI1K PUBLIC BUILDINGS. Whin William Penn laid out the plan of the original city of Philadelphia he selected Penn fcouare. or. as it was appropriate' called in former times, Centre Square, as the proper Bite for public buildings or general importance. There was ereat wisdom in this action, be cause no other spot approximated so closely to the territorial centre ox tne original city, and because this point was at the same time the onlr one then existing at which a junction of two broad streets would be effected. The lapse of neatly two centuries, and the accompanying improvements, have not only confirmed the ',.'im of the plan devised by the founder of 4he oity ut ey have developed many pow '. 'sons why his views should be adopted In the ojx of a site for the pro posed municipal eaJce8- lh dlstrlot em i m u ! hw nearly covered tvith buildings, and while niJ thousands of dwellings, stores, and manurac:"" iAn erected beyond the old city '.uauta on territory west of the Schuylkill, north i'a northwest of Broad and Vine streets, and poutu and southwest of Broad and Piae tf reeta, the opportunities for expansion near the lite cf tbe PcLiware Lave baca nec3iu filv lostiictcd by that river. The Tena Square Bite is now not near fur nfiongh wl or far enough north to be the territorial centre of the Philadelphia of to-day, but it approximates much more nearly to the oentre than Washington Square, while it bids fair to become, a few years hence, the centre of population, and to continue for many gene rations the " grand centre of local travel. Since the voters of Philadelphia are to determine the site of the pmblio build ings at the ballot-box to-morrow, nothing will redound more to their credit than a de rision in favor of the locality which is no RtroDgly commended by the appropriateness indicated in the original plan of Philadel phia, inspired by a dispassionate study of the wants of the present, and clearly evident to all who consider for a moment the probable wants of the future. Another consideration that of architectu ral effcct-i-should be carefully weighed by the tax-payers, upon whom the burden of the cost of constructing the proposed new buildings must fall. Wo 'want edifices that will not only be well adapted to their purposes, but that will be an ornament to Philadelphia. It is folly to erect splendid structures where they will rarely greet the eyes, of strangers, and where their whole effect will be lost by the multiplicity of adjacent buildings. Broad street has by common consent been chosen for the display of tho ornamental architecture of the city, and every Philadelphian looks forward to the time when it will become the most splendid avenue in the world. The whole body of tax-payers should insist that their money must be incidentally devoted to the work of decorating this grand thorough fare. If any thousand or ten thousand of them, residing in various quarters of the city, united together to build a fine hall, temple, church, or academy, they would not thiuk for one moment of squandering their me ins in such a locality as Seventh and Walnut st reets, nor hesitate an instant aboHt adopting Bro:vJ street as their site if they could procure aa appropriate lot; and the whole commmity, acting in mass, should, for the common good, be governed by the same course of reasoning and arrive at the same conclusion. By selecting Penn Square the legal difti ml ties, disputes, and postponements which are inevitable in case a majority of voters decide in favor of Washington Square will be avoided. There will be no necessity f;ir dig ging up the bones of thousands of Revolution ary soldiers, for violating the graves of num berless strangers, for setting at naught tho injunctions of William Penn, for. outraging the sense of justice which pervades the minds of unprejudiced and uninterested men, and for inflicting a permanent wrong up in pos terity for the temporary enrichment of a few propel ty owners of the present day. On Penn Square there will be plenty of room, plenty of light, plenty of air, and com modious surroundings. The wide streets will diminish the danger of stifling judges and juries, and the necessity for lighting gis in some of the offices at all hours of the d iy. The Building Commission has officially uu nounoed that no definite plan for the pro posed edifices has yet been adopted, but the character of the gentlemen composing it furnishes a suro guarantee that if tho Penn Square site is selected iU great natural ad vantages will be effectively utiliztd, and that no pains will be spared to render the new buildings in every respect creditable aid satisfactory to the citizens of Philadelphia. FALSEHOOD IN POLITICS. Many men of no principle, or of defective moral culture, act in political life as if all honorable dealing were a thing to be dis carded, if not despised. And indeed it very often happens that men of the most rigid integrity in every other relation of life will excuse duplicity and false hood in connection with political movement) that they would deprecate and denounce if exhibited in any business transaction. All this is wrong and fruitful of noth ing but evil. Under a form of government such as ours, where political dishonesty can corrupt every stream of anthority and power, it is of the very first moment that thin excep tion to the eeneral rule of honesty and int e- grity should not be made, but that truth, fair dealing, and honesty should be demanded by all as much in political as in social and busi ness life. These observations have their general application to both the great political parties of the country, but are here made with a special reference to one phase in the Congressional contest in the Fourth district that must be apparent end re pulsive to all intelligent and observant men. In the bitter personal contest pursued by William B. Thomas against Judge Kelley, the great effort of the former has been to misre present the character, opinions, reoord, and services of his opponent, with a special refer ence to prejudice the mechanics and laboring men against him. By garbled extracts from speeches, misstatements and falsehoods ou of the whole cloth, Thomas would mitlead the people he aspires to represent into ' a belief that bis opponent is not the friend of the laboring men of the country. The truth is as clear as the sun at noonday that, if Jage Kelley in a long and evtntfa career has proven anything beyond contra diction or doubt, it is bis devotion to the in dustrial interests and laboring classes of the country. TlimBelf a mechanic, the son of a mechanic, who by industry, honesty, and labor has elevated himself to an exalted posi tion in the councils of the nation, he has never forgotten that great army of toilers from which he sprang, but has been, in sea son and out, their champion and advocate. To uphold American industries, emanci pate, elevate, educate, and ennoble Americarl labor, has been the great etl'ort of his life, and to attempt by misrepresentation to drive from his support fbe very class for whose ele vation and happiness his life has been epent, is net a political trick, but a crime which an honorable u an wpuld shrink from attempting. Generfil Thoniss will discover very shortly (bat be bs wofnlly underrated the intelli-- rcc, cf the'irf n would rnifelend aid de ceive. Many read quite as much, are a in telligent, and neU better Vian he fM, and ' cd not be blinded by the chaff he would cat k their eyes, if they are somewhat deafened by the Chinese gong he has been beating through the Fourth district. THE PRESIDENTS PRO ULA it A TION. Thk blockade of the Prussian coast having proved a failure of the most decided char acter, the French navy has transferred its perationa to our coast, and a number of men of -war have been for some time pint engaged U watching with hostile intentions the Ger man vessels in several of our ports. The President has accordingly issued a proclamation to prevent the neu trality of the United States from being violated, and he directs in substance that the vessels of war of either belligerent shall not leave any port of the United States within twenty-four hours of the departure of any vessel of its opponent, whether man-of-war, privateer, or merchantman; that vessels of war shall not remain in our ports for more than twenty-four hours except for absolutely needed repairs and supplies, and that any such war vcsoel, after having en tered one of our ports.shall not re-enter until after having visited pne of the ports of its own government. The only thing to complaia of with regard to this proclamation is the tar diness with which it has been issued. For several weeks past the French cruisers have been prowling in and about New York harbor, noting the German mer chantmen there congregated, and making preparations to pounce upon them in case they should put to sea; and, so far as the United States authorities were concerned, there was no apparent check upon their move ments. It is said that the President's proclamation was hurriedly prepared and issued in consequence of import ant information received in Washiagtou on Saturday, which indicated that tho Ger man merchantmen were in special danger. Be this as it may, it is well that the President has placed the proper restrictions upon the navies of the two belligerents before any occuwence should take placa that would in volve us in difficulties with either party that might force us to abandon our position of impartial and friendly spectators of the contest now being waged in Europe. THE UNION LEa'o UE-IMPOIl TA NT MOVEMENT. The Directors of the Union League of Phila delphia have called a meeting of the members of that organization for the purpose of con sidering a proposed application to the Legis lature for the call of a StaH Convention to amend the Constitution of Pennsylvania. We must assume that this movement is not in any way connected with party politics, but is intended as a mean of directing public attention to a subject of universal in terest. The Legislature bas power to propose such amendments once in five years, and since tho convention of 188 the power has been exer cised. Several amendments have thus been made and approved by the people. But that body is not always composed of men who have any special regard for the fundamental law of the State, or who are even competent to perform any other service as legislators than such as will put money in their pockets. It is the notorious corruption of successive legislators, and the facility with which the votes of their members have-1 been " purchased by individuals and cor porations applying for special legislation, which have turned the attention of thoughtful men to the grave question of constitutional I re! orai. A convention called and organized in the usual way is the only efficient instru f mentality of 6nch reform, and if the Union League identifies itself with the movemeat, ! to that it shall not assume a partisan aspect, its action will probably meet with general v pi oval. Evert citizen of Philadelphia is interested in the selection of good men for our niuniei pal legislature, and if more care was generally taken to choose none but men who would re present the intelligence and business ability of our citizens, Councils would perform their duties in a much more able and satisfactory manner. Amen g the candidates to be voted for to-morrow, there is none more worthy of cordial support from those who- wish to see Councils become the real representatives of a great and wealthy city like this, than Mr. Wil liam E. Littleton, the Republican nominee for Select Council in the Twelfth ward. Mr. Littleton's record as a Councilman is a suffi cient guarantee of his fitness. lie has been untiring in his exertions to promote all mea sures for the public benefit and the improve ment of the city, and bas proved himself to be a useful, hard-working, and intelligent member. The vast majority of the questions that come up before Councils have no son i nection whatever with party politics, and a man of Mr. Littleton's worth is entitled to the support of intelligent voters of all shades of political opinion. - SPEOIAL NOTICES. for Additional SpttM JVoMeM IM A 6'A ami 8't Hyt. j-' siX REASONS WOYRrTBI.TcANij 7 we Intend to vote for j i . ,' HENRY M.

Editor or ttie West Plilla-lclptita Star; Dear Sir: Soma fault having been found with me for introducing a lull Into the I.enlslnture last winter for the cpentnir of DUmmd street, I respectfully ask a small space In tour paper for the purpose of giving a correct statement la reference to the bill ami its passage thtoiiRti the Uouse. It was handed o roe by N. B. Browne, Esq., President of the Fidelity Trust and 8are Deposit Companv, who stated that he knew nothing of Its character ex cept that It had been drawn up by KU K. Trice, Esq., and handed to him by an estimable citi zen living on the line of the 'street. On the day Mr. Browne gave mc the bill I met nenrr M. Phillips, Esq., who asked me for It, saying that he wished to see It. We read it over together, and both objected to a clause In It, pledging the faith of the Commonwealth that no railroad should ever be laid upon it; but feeling that this matter Interested only the property-owners on the road, I concluded to offer it, not having the least idea of the street running through the Odd- Fellows' Cemetery, and not supposing there was any opposition to It. The bill was refcred to the rroper committee; and while it was before the committee, the gentleman who gave it to Mr. Browne, called upon rae two or three times, and seemed very urgent for its passage, lie said the street was to be seventy feet wile, with Nicolson pavement, and would be one of the finest avenues in the city, still saying Dotting about the Odd I'el'ows' Cemetery. One morning, before tCe CCULe trie JJonse, jir, Adatg, A!0rht brought lo int a after and a small plan, stating aud BhowiLg that t!ie afreet, ran directly through tiie Cemetery. 1 M Mr. Albright up Into the Ltbrarv to examine a map of the city and found that the stuttmc nt was correct. I at once told Mr. Aloright that I would have nothing more to do wl'h the bill. On the following Saturday I met the property o ner who had the bill In charge, and told him that he had placed mc In a false position with reference t it : tliat 1 never would be engage in any legislation that seemed to be underhanded, and as this looked as if I wished to put a street through the Odd Fallows' Cemetery by stealth, he must find some one else to pass his bill, lie said that he had forgotten to toll mc iibont the cemetery, but It nmdf no difference ; that some of the oilicers or the ceineterr and inilu ei.tlal Odd Fellows really wished thn street to go through It, but dare not say so openly. They h .d another cemetery to which they wanted all tins dead removed, and If they could get this tine avenue there, tho building lots would sell for enough to pay for removing the dead, and bring iliem a large sum of money beside I told him that might have been a good argu ment in an open fight on a bill known to have been lntroductd for the purpose of cutting a street through the cemetery, but. it would not do in this case; that I could not do anything lor him. The bill came up and was defeated. Mr. Albnzht and Mr. Bunn actively opposed It, and I do not think anv member advocated It. Subsequently the bill was, on motion of Mr. Stokes, reconsidered. I would not vote for it ; no Odd Fellow had asked me to vote sgninst it, and I did not vote at all. Mr. Bunn waa not-in the nousc. Mr. Albright voted against it, ond 1 do not remember how any of the other l'tiila- ilelphla members voted. I beltev It passed the Seriate unanimously.
