THIS ARMISTICE.
Tnr. caLlo despatches rendor it doubtful
whether an urtninlice between the contending
nations will bo concluded. The succession of
stunning blows which hare robbed France of
the power of resisting the invaders soom to
hare alo destroyed her ability to adopt rational
measures for promoting peace. She is given
np to iudocision and anarchy, and with star
vation staring in the face of two millions of
citizens confined within the walls of Paris, a
few ambitions rulers reject a peaceable
method for extending relief to this im
perilled capital at a moment when
they are making no martial efforts worthy of
the name to raise the siego of the beleaguered
capital. An immense number of human lives
arc apparently on the point of boing sacrificed
to gratify the mistaken ambition of a few
vain leaders (for the underlying reason of
the reported rejection of the armistice must
be sought in the fear of the present govern
ment that it would not be sustained at the
proposed elections); and if Madame Roland
were living now sne would nave more cause
than ever to exolaim, "O liberty! what
crimes are committed in thy name!" The
authentic test of public opinion which is so
sedulously and selfishly avoided is the one
thing above all others that is needed for the
salvation of Trance, whether the war is to go
on or peace is to provail. If the present gov
ernment could vigorously enforce its autho
rity, it would be well enough to avoid an elec
tion iu the presence of a foreign army, but
proofs of its inability to control the national
resources are multiplying, and the very men
who protest loua'y against any
movement which contemplates the
surrender of a foot of French soil
put the whole country at the mercy of the
invaders by their disorders and disobedience
The treacherous course pursued towards
Garibaldi furnishes a fearful commentary upon
the fine sentiments that are so freely uttered,
and the hour for following up brave words
with heroic deeds is indefinitely postponed.
No handful of men have a right to assume, as
the Provisional Government practically does
by rejecting the armistice, that the property
and lives of millions of citizens shou'd be
sacrificed in a vain effort to maintain the de
lusive idea that French territory is inviolable.
If such a resolution is adopted, under the
present circumstances, it should be clearly
expressed by an overwhelming majority of
the entire nation, and that majoiity should
at the same time establish a government suffi
ciently powerful to afford a reasonable hope
that the resolution could be maintained.
It is scarcely possible that the rejection of
the armistice can have any other result than
that Paris shall fall as Strasburg and Metz
have fallen, with the addition of indescriba
ble horrors arising from the density of popu
lation and superior importance of the capital;
and it seems incredible that Trochu and
Thiers, s ho have shown so much true states
manship in their efforts to avert these terri
ble calamities, should be overruled by vain,
foolish, heartless, desperate, or corrupt poli
ticians. We can scarcely bolieve that French
men will suffer themselves to be destroyed
by blind and unscrupulous leaders, and when
they come to realize their perilous position
we hope that they will find means for forcing
even their worst impracticables to consent to
n nniiiMice.
WI'.NDELL PHILLIPS ON WAR AND
WOR KING MSN.
Ii Wendell rhillips was an ordinary politi
cian, or rather an ordinary talker and writer
on political subjects, it might be possible to
make out what he means by his present
efforts to curry favor with tho workingmen.
Wendell has hitherto managed to keep him
self tolerably free from the suspicion of
hankering after offise, and has apparently
been content with the proud position he has
won for himself of Vituperator General. Can
it be possible that Mr. Phillips is beginning
to think that his life-long services in abusing
every public man in the country, good, bad,
and iudifterent, for the last thirty or forty
years, are deserving of more substantial re
wards than the approval of his own con
science, and that he is laying hia pipas
for an election to the Governorship
of Massachusetts, or fearful thought! the
Presidency of the United States? It certainly
looks as though he was after something of
this kind by the manner in which he has of
late been endeavoring to flatter the vanity of
workingmen and advocating the worst falla
cies of the trades unions and workingmen's
conventions. As a specimen of the kind of
utterances in which he is now indulging his
recent lecture on "State Politics," delivered
& few days ago in the Music Hall at Boston,
is worthy of note. One of the most remarka
ble features of this address is an allusion to
(he present war in Europe, which states that
"Two mad kings bad made two nations of
workingmen mad, and they are now engaged
in a combat that would not have occurred had
the Emperor permitted the Interna
tional Congress of Workingmen to meet
iu Paris.' When a man of Wendell Phillips'
experience in public affairs takes such a view
as this of the conflict now raging between
l'rauce and Germany, it tan only be con
cluded that he does not know what he is
talking about, and is incompetent to form
reasonable opinion on the subjoct, or thai he
intentionally says what ho does not believe
to be true, for the purpose of advancing hia
individual ends.
One of the kings in question may have
been mad, but the appearances are in favor
of the supposition that he was simply vain,
ambitions, and foolish in entering into a war
with an adversary known to be strong and
well-prepared for a fight, without finding out
first whether there was a fair chance in favor
of his winning the victory; and the other, if
he has not genius himself, has displayed some
discretion in surrounding himself with
men that have, and who has given
abundant indications that he has a good
stock of hard common sense of his own.
That the International Congress of Working
men would by their meeting have provented
the war,no man in the world who is apparent
ly competent to form an opinion on the sub
ject but Wendell Phillips probably believes.
This opinion is a fair sample of Mr. Phillip'
reasoning upon public questions, and it dis
plays a total want of comprehension of the
causes that brought about the present con
flict, causes that are plain enough to any
reasonably intelligent reader of the news
papers and we respectfully submit it to
thoughtful workingmen whether a man who
is not able to do better thinking than this is
a trustworthy guide for thoui. There is too
much nonsense now uttered by workingmon
and their professed frionds, and the best
thing the advecates of the rights of labor can
do if they wish to be happy is to give Wen
dell Phillips the cold shoulder.
MR. RUDDIMAN AND REFORM.
In September a convention composed of
three delegates from each ward mot to revise
the rules of the Republican party in this
county, in order, if possible, to make the
nominating conventions in some degree what
they are intended to be, the representatives
of the wishes of the members of the Repub
lican party. The convention elected William
II. Rnddiman, Esq., as its president, and
after passing a resolution directing him to
appoint a committee of fifteen to report
a set of rules, adjourned to meet
again upon the call of the chairmin. Nearly
two months have elapsed, and as yet Mr.
Ruddiman has not even named the committee
of fifteen. Why this delay? It is well known
that Mr. Ruddiman is a political aspirant,
and hia delay in forming this committee is
pretty freely ascribed to the existonce of some
ring which he desires to propitiate. One of
the most needed changes in the rules is that
in regard to the appointment of officers to
conduct the delegate elections. At
present these worthies are named
byj that aggregation of corrupt imbecility
known to the law as the Board of Aldermen.
Unless the rules are changed, the stool
pigeons and small political aspirants whom
these men select will not only hold the dele
gate elections of 1871, but by giving fraudu
lent certificates of election to delegates in the
interests of the various aldormen will perps-
tuate themselves, and the conventions which
they will count into existence will continue to
annually nominate a sot of candidates for ofiice
that will finally defeat the Republican
party in this city, and with it in the State.
There must be a radical reform, and we siy
to Mr. Ruddiman that if he desiros to dig his
political grave, and to dig it deep, he will
put on the committee of fifteen a majority in
favor of continuing in the hands of the alder
men the power to appoint election oiliaers to
count in the ring delegates to conventions.
When this committee is appointod we will
give our readers a full account of its mem
bers and their antecedents. Wo trust Mr.
Ruddiman will put it in our power to be able
o speak favorably of his committee.
Now that the President has ordered that
the census of Philadelphia shall be retaken,
we hope that Marshal Gregory will avail hiru
st If of all the municipal assistance that Coun
cils or the Mayor can furnish. There should
be no red tape jealousies or red tape neglects
displayed in connection with this business.
It.is important that the exact population of
Philadelphia should be ascertained, and the
Marshal should avail himself of all the assist
ance that tends to ensure the completeness of
his returns.
An At stuauan' mail steamer which recently
arrived at San Francisco brings the intelli
gence that the General Assembly of Queens
land Las passed a protective tariff law. The
growing antagonism to free trade doctrines
which is exhibited in Great Britain thus finds
practical expression in one of her colonies,
and Queensland takes the true method of
securing prosperity in spite of the delusive
teachings of Cobden and Bright.
THE FINE AKtU,
The School of DcmIstd for Women.
The artistic taste ami culture wliicU produce no re
sults beyond affording their possessor a sore of
senil-gensual gratification are oi but doubtful value,
and the worki of art, although they may be the
highest expressions of the human Intellect, which
appeal only to an exquisitely cultivated taste, and
that are of necessity beyond the range of the com
mon mass of humanity, are In reality of but minor
Importance. The steam engiue aud the magnetic
telegraph are works of art, aud so are the perform
at.ces of the tirees. sculptors thu have come down
to us. The number of persons who are able to look
upon the latter with appreciation is infinitely smalt
In comparison with the multitude who are benefited
by the latter; and loth as we might be to give up our
Greek statues, they would be destroyed without re
gret If it were a question between their preservation
and that of the steam engine and the telegraph. It
is a disadvantage to this natiou, however, thit It has
hitherto been bo in acb absorbed la the purely prac
tical arts that it Ins allowed itself no time to culti
vate a taste for the beautiful either la
nature or the works of tine art.t; and
the necessities of our position are such that, for
many years to come, at least, all real artistic culture
must be through the medium f forms or beauty
applied to the things of common l'fe. ladeed,
all real taste for the tine arts has Its growth in this
manner, and the exquisite culture of the Ureeks Is
feliow n even Jmore plainly in the ornamentation of
the common utensils of their households than it is
in the sculptures of the Purtueuon. Ia fact, It may
b accepted at tn axiom that true art, like true re.
ligion, is for everybody and for all times, ami that
the religion or the culture that do not manifest
themselves more in the daily routine of household
life than they do iu the buildiug or grand cuuivhos
and Imposing gnllcrles of psinMngs and sculpture,
re alike superficial and of doubtful utility to their
roiwRsor or to the world around him. It is a
totally mistaken Idea to suppose, that works of art
and the ability to enjoy them with the most keenly
upprtclatlve spirit are the prerogatives of the rich
alone, or that artistic knowledge cant ot be acquired
1y any but those who hve a special natural predis
position for It. The furnishing of a room, when
any thought whatever Is given tj the subject of ap
penrnmrs, Is an exercise of artistic taste, aud if
the result Is not satisfactory It is bcoauso that
tssto Ins not been guided by simple sclcntllie
rules that can be learned as easily as reading,
wr ting, and arithmetic can by anybody who has
sufficient capacity for the acquirement of these ac
coropllthments. If the question of beauty in home
decoration were one of money merely, tho majority
or people might well consider themselves as ab
solved from the necessity or considering it, but for
tunately money has very little to do with it, while
the mental faculties that every responsible human
being Is possessed of have a great deal. It Is an im
portant truth that needs to be strong;y Impressed
upon the American people, that nnt only la artistic
beauty of practical value in Itself, but that it is
actually cheaper than hldeousness. A woman who
knows how to furnish a room according to the
rules of good taste that with mathematical
certainty will produce certain results alike
pleasing to the mind and the eye, and
at the same time answering all the wants
of practical every-day life, can do so with less
money than she would In al probability expend in
obtaining a conglomeration of discordant objects
that would cause a sense of discomfort to all who
came under their Influence. A nun or woman
living In a house where the colors of carpets, wall
paper, and furniture are all discordant, and where
such ornamentation as is introduced is vulgar or
commonplace, will derive no real or permanent ad
vantage from the Inspection of the flue works in a
picture or etalue gallery, unless they lnsplic a de
sire for un icsthetic reformation at Home, and be
cause the intluenco thus far exerted In this coun
try by the multitude of superior artistic produc
tions that our people have had opportunities for
studying lias been so small, we have very little ex
pectation from the culture to be obtained iu this
manner, and believe In begluulng at the bittom in
stead of the top, by making art an element of our
common school education.
At present the School of Design for Women in
this city and its brunches in several portions of the
State are the only institutions in the country that
profess to teach att according to scientific princi
ples, and the great value of the School of Design
consists not only in this, but in the fact that its ener
gies are particularly devoted to the education of
industrial designers. The theory of Professor T. V.
Uraidwood, the principal ol the school, Is substan
tially that which we have stated al ove, aud the
great Idea that is urged upon tho attention of his
pupils In all the operations of tho school U that
true art culture is bused upon knowledge, aud not
upon mere uneducated natural instincts, and that if
it is to have any real stamina it must commence at
home, in the beautifying or the
rooms In which civilized aud enlightened
people are to live, aud In the appropriate ornamenta
tion of the various articles of domestic life that they
have in dally use. This school was established pri
marily for the purpose of giving young women a
profession by which they could earn their living in a
respectable maimer, but any results which it has
achieved and will achieve in this direction, Important
as they undoubtedly are, are of less consequence than
the influence that such au lus.i'utlou citin t fait to
exert in indirectly educating the taste of the public
at large. The valaoof the method pursued at the
School or Design has recently been demonstrated Iu
a manner most gratifying to its friends, by the fact
that the Cooper Institute, of New York, has
abandoned its previous system, or rather no system
or Instruction and has adopted that or tho
Philadelphia institution, sending hero for books, dia
grams, drawings, aud models for the purpose of
making a fresh start. Such an aaknowledgraent us
this of the merits of our School of Design ought more
than ever to secure for it the hearty support of the
citizens of Philadelphia, and If its facilities could be so
increased that it would be able to educate young
men and boys, more beneilclal results could be ob
tained Jhan by any of tho schemes that have
been proposed fur tho promotion of art education,
or than by the establishment oi art museums or
academies of the tine arts to be conducted upon the
plan of the institution now waiting for something to
turn up in its favor before it asserts Itself again with
its old prestige of being the centre of artistic en
lightenment In these region?.
It is scarcely necessary for us to state that the
School or Design for Women is of necessity depend
ent almost entirely upon the good will of the public
for the means of subsistence. A large number of
Its pupils receive their education free, while the
tuition fees of those who pay bear no proportion
whatever to the expenses or the Institution. Its
conductors have the desire but not tho ability to
make it absolute y a Tree school, and they could do
so if the people or this city properly appreciated
the Importance or the work it Is performing, and
gave to Its necessities with a liberality proportionate
to its deserts. By a wise disposition or funds appro
priated by tho Legislature at various times, tho in
stitution is uow supplied iu an admirable, manner
with the appliances or education, and its great
want at present Is means for the employment of a
full corps of accomplished professors. Efforts have
been made In this direction, and a valuable addi
tion has recently becu made to tho faculty by the
engagement or Mr. A. G. lleaton, a young artist of
ability, who will devote his time ami talents
hereafter mainly to promoting the Interests of the
school. There Is very much, however, that yet re
mains to be iloni, aud a point has now been reached
where a llboial assistance from those who can ap
preciate the Importance of the peculiar kind of
artistic culture obtainable at the School of Design
will be or the highest value in advancing its future
Interests and in extending its lntlucuce. Thus far
the school has been large y indebted to tho earnest
and liberal exertions iu Its behalf of Messrs. W. J.
llorstmaiin, James II. Orne, P. Pendleton Morris,
James L. Claghoru. and a row ethers who have
Interested themsevea warmly in its welfare; but now
that the lnstitutiou is no louger an experiment, but a
practical as well as an artistic success, It is but
proper that these gentlemen should have the best
recognition of their services that their fellow-citizens
can give, in an effort to place the School of Design
upon such a substantial pecuniary footing that its
success la the future will be secured beyond a per
adventure. NOTICES.
