FRIDAY, JANUARY 13, 1871. 1ST The Evening : Telegraph, from original establishment, has been in the receipt of telegraphic news from the New York Associated Press, which consists ol 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 ol the news which we have received from this source. Last March we 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 members, the North American, Inquirer Ledger, Tress, Age, Record, 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. THE SUBURBAN SARCASM. When the House bill providing for an inter national exposition at Philadelphia was under consideration in the Senate yesterday,' the Senators from New York made a character istic and contemptible display of petty jeal ousy, and Oookadoodle Conkling especially distinguished himself by a clownish rehearsal of the stale and stupid saroasm that Phila delphia is a suburb of New York. The best talent of that extraordinary city Laving, after ages of profound ' thought and intense cogitation, filially produced this brilliant idea, it is made to do duty on all possible oooasions. When a New York jour nalist wishes to rise to the height of metro politan sublimity, he pitohes into Philadelphia and dishes up the silly slander that she is a suburb of the unhappy municipality over which Tammany, Hall domineers. When Blubbering Brooks, in the House of Representatives, 1 attempts an unu aually absurd display of his vapid oratory, he dives deep into the vait depths of his consciousness, and fishes up the profound remark that Philadelphia is a suburb of New York. The Senate, as the chosen arena of dignified discussion, also inspires Cockadoodle Conkling with the ambition to make a majestio display of , his brilliant intel lect, and, as its best emanation, he lays upon the altar of a grateful - oountry the noble sentence that Philadelphia is a suburb of New York. As the Mahommedans are taught that great is Allah and Mahomet is his prophet, so the journalists and politicians of Gotham perpetually repeat, as part of their purse-proud and narrow-minded cateohism, the dogma that great is New York and Phila delphia is her suburb. ' In this sublime faith Blubbering Brooks, Oookadoodle Conkling, and the sorubs ' of New York journalism live, move, and have their being. It cheers their hours of despondency when Tammany Hall threatens to squeeze out their very life blood; it consoles them when rottenness and rascality invite upon the city of tenement hoases, gambling halls, aal bribed judges the doom of Sodom and. Gomorrah; it en courages them when pestilence stalks abroad in their midst, and makes their contracted island the most unhealthy abode ever adopted by any considerable body of man kind; and it lights the dull torches' of their feeble ' and flickering ' intellects when weak ambition prompts them to attempt to be sarcastic As a staple illustration of the quintessence of New York wit, nothing could be better than their favorite remark; and as an ill as t ration of New York truthful ness it cannot easily be surpassed. But if it were capable of any amendment, the best ad dition would probably be a compliment to the parroU - who perpetually repeat it, and the phrase as amended should go before the country in something like this formula: Great is New York; Philadelphia is her suburb; and great are Blubbering Brooks and Oooka doodle Conkling for proclaiming these great truths in the National Capitol. Ye jibs ago a brilliant author, in a sensational article, treated murder as one of the fine arts,' and in these modern days his apparently f antas tio idea finds a practical illustration, not only in the imputed crime of Dr. Sohoeppe, but in the career of Buloff, who has just been con victed of murder at Binghamton, N. Y. Kuloff, like Schoeppe, is a man o' learning. He epoke and wrote seven languages, had figured at various times and places as an acute lawyer, and had written learned works as well as studied many things. He has nevertheless been nearly a long-life criminal; part of his career has been spent in State Prison as a convict, and he has just been found guilty of a murder perpetrated when be was attempting to commit a burglary. Accused of an aggravated murder years ago, be then escaped the dread penalties of the law to inour them in his old age, after having reroetrated manv crimes. Ii any new proof were needed that mere secular education does rot furnish t safeguard against crime, lluloff'a t ate vou'd furnibb 11. TUE SQUAIWLE IN' COMMON COUNCIL. On the organization of the new Counoils, at the commencement of the year, the Republi can aspirants for the Tresidenoy of the Com mon Branch were Messrs. Henry Iluhn and Louis Wagner. The former reoeived the caucus nomination and was fairly elected, and all the ordinary rules of courtesy and propriety would seem to require his opponent to be satisfied with the result, or at least to avoid giving public expression to his disap pointment by endeavoring to embarrass Mr. Huhn in the discharge of his duties, and by Impeding the public business in the Coun cil Chamber. The public understands very well that the performances of Mr. J. S. Allen at the two Inst meetings of Common Council mean nothing more nor less than that Mr.' Wagner is determined to annoy the ' President as much as he possibly can, and that he is merely using Mr. Allen as a catspaw. The last-named gentleman claims that Mr. nuhn promised in return for his vote to appoint him Chair man of the Highway Committee, and upon his owa confession he stands oonvioted of having made a corrupt bargain, so that he is not entitled to, and will not be likely to re ceive, much sympathy in his disappointment. Mr. Huhn evidently did a very proper thing when he declined to make Mr. Alien Chair man of the Highway Committee, and the public interests are much more likely to be served as matters now stand than they would have been had Mr. Allen obtained the position to whioh he aspired. It should be clearly under stood, however, by Mr. Allen and his baokers in his quarrel with the President of Common Council, that the people of this city are not sufficiently interested "in them or their grievances to desire a continuance of such squabbling as has taken plaoe in the last two sessions of Common Council, and they will make a mnoh better impression on the publio and more surely advance their own interests by attending to the duties for which they were elected than by endeavoring to annoy Mr, Huhn upon every conceivable opportunity. Mr. Allen yesterday endeavored to make a point against the President because his in suiting letter of resignation from the Com mittee on Election Divisions was omitted from the record, and we hope the very deoided vote of the chamber against him will convince both him and Mr. Wagner that they are not likely to get much sympathy or support from their col leagues in their spiteful warfare against the President. It was probably a great disap pointment to Mr. Wagner that he was not elected President of Common Counoil, as it was to Mr. Allen that he failed to obtain the chairmanship of the Highway . Committee; but from the manner in whioh they have be haved, the pabliowill be very decidedly of the opinion that it was a very good thing their ambitions were not gratified. . At any rate, the Council Chamber is not the proper place for tho ventilation of their private grievances, and they will confer a favor not only on their fellow-members but on the community at large if they will cease making themselves nuisances by the public discus sion of matters about which no one is interested but themselves. THE BIBLE IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS. A brilliant genius in the lower branch of the Ohio Legislature introduced a bill in that body a short time ago to make the read ing of the Bible in the publio sohools unlaw f ul, and this proposition "was defeated yester day by a vote of 11 yeas to 75 nays. This bill embodied as ' bad a backward step as modern ingenuity could well devise. : Centu ries ago the Parliament of England pro hibited the reading of the Bible by laymen, under penalty , of death, thus adopting the oourse whioh prevailed subsequently, for a ong period, in various nations on the Conti nent. r '. . . , , But the spirit of a free people revolted against such a restriction, and now since it is praotically abrogated 'in every civilized nation, after centuries of persecution, con tention, and ' controversy, it is proposed to establish it, so far as the reading of the Bible in the publio sohools is concerned, in this oountry! Absurd retrogression could not mnoh further go. If school boards, in the exercise of the superior wisdom with which they are usually abundantly blessed, choose to ignore or prohibit the reading of the Bible in the sohools under their immediate supervision, such a step,' though bad enough, will only have local significance; but whea a great Commonwealth like . Ohio is asked by one of her legislators to make the reading of the Bible in all the publio schools throughout her length and breadth unlawful, and when such a proposition reoelves even 14 votes, we may well begin to ask where we are drift ing, and what new monstrosities of legisla tion are yet in store. In the National House of Bepresentatives yesterday, a bill for the better care of cattle in transit by railroad or other means of trans portation was under discussion. The princi pal objection to it seemed to bo that it would interfere with the enactments of the several States, and that the subject was one that had Lett be under the" control of the State gov ernments. It is certain that av law of Con gress would be more productive of good than a series of conflicting enactments by the dif ferent States; and that it would be better both for the railroad companies and for the dumb beasts in whose interests it is proposed. , The matter is one that certainly deserves tho attention of Congress, as animals undoubt edly suffer greatly from want of proper care in transportation, and a wisely-prepared series of regulations that would aid in pro moting their comfort and in delirering them in good condition to consumers would meet with the approval of the people of the coun try. Any law passed by Congress, however, bhould be carefully considered in all its bear ings, so as not to embarrass the railroad com panies any more than is nooeasary on the one bacd, and bom to insure, proper treatment for the auimaU tipoa the other. The arga ments that have hitherto been advanced in the'Honso of Representatives have .been rather of the don't-care order, whereas the subject is better worthy of the thoughtful re cards of Congress than many over whioh members are disposed to wax eloquent. no. Andkbw Dickson Whits, LL.D., who has accepted a position on the San Domingo Inves tigating Commission, is a young ana rising man. He Is, we believe, a native of Syracuse, New York, and U under forty. He was educated at Tale College, at which institution he graduated In ISM, with high honors. He tien devoted some time to travel in Europe, passing several months In Russia, and be coming thoroughly conversant with the internal affairs and people of that country. On returning to the United States he accepted the Professorship of History and English Literature In the University of Michigan, which he continued to hold until he was selected by Air. Cornell to act as President and organtxer of the new Cornell University at lthtea, Mew York. In the organization of this Institution he has endeavored to make the practical predominate, and the sucooss which the University has already attained is a proof of his educational skill and foresight. During the late war President White passed a year In Europe, devoting his time and energy to tne dissemination of correct ideas of the great struggle on this continent, in which course he had the dlrectoountenance and enoouragement of President Lincoln. He made frequent addresses to large audiences in London and other Eogltsh cities, and published a vigorous pamphlet whioh had an enormous circulation. Subsequent to his return to the United States he served two terms in the State Senate of New York, the only occasion on which he has participated aotlvely in political life. President White has contributed frequently to the Atlanlio Monthly and other leading periodicals. Among his articles In the A tlantie, those on Cardinal Richelieu and Thomas Jefferson were masterpieces of historical writing. He Is a fluent and vigorous speaker, and possesses a rare degree of oratorical power. . , Snow on Tns Routk op thb Northsrn Pacific Railroad. The following opinion of W. MUnor Roberts, Esq., United States Civil Engineer, In re gard to the comparatively small quantity of sno w on the line of the Northern PacIQo Railroad, is worthy of attention: "There Is evidence enough to show trut the line of road, on the general route herein described, will, In ordinary winters, be much less encumbered with snow where It crosses the mountains than are the passes at more southerly points, which are much more elevated above the sea. The difference of Ave to six degrees of lati tude Is more than compensated by the reduced ele vation above the sea level and the climatic effect of the warm ocean currents fsom the equator, already referred to, ameliorating the seasons from the Pacific to the Rooky Moun tains. An examination of the profile of the Union Paclflo and Central Paclflo lines between Omaha on the Missouri river, and Sacramento, California, a distance of 1T7B miles, shows that there are four mam summits Sherman summit, on the Black hills, about 060 miles from Omaha, 8838 feet above the sea; one on the Rocky Mountains, at Aspen summit, about 935 miles from Omaha, T40S feet ; one at Hum boldt mountain, about 1243 miles from Omaha, SOTS f?9t and" another on the Sierra Nevada, only 105 mllel HOW. vne western terminus at Sacramento, 7Mi feet; whilst from a point west of Cheyenne, 620 miles from Omaha, to Wasatch, 970 miles from Omaha, a continuous length of 450 miles, every portien or the graded road is more than 6000 feet above the sea; being about one thousand feet, on this long distance, higher than the highest summit grade on the Northern PaclOo Railroad route, whilst for the corresponding dis tance on the Northern Paclflo route, the average elevation is under 8000 feet, or 3000 feet less. The highest summit on the Northern Paclflo line Is about thrte thousand feet lower than the Sherman summit on the Paclflo line. "It Is the general Impression in the States, an im pression entirely natural, that the farther we go north the deeper the snow, but on this line the modifying and controlling influences of the mild ollmate which pervades the PaolBo slope and the interior along this latitude, combined with the greatly reduced elevation of the range of oountry to be oocupled, and the low summits of the back-bone mountains to be passed, tend to oonflrm the favora ble statements of Intelligent gentlemen who have long been familiar with the regions to question." OBITOAKY. Tl.n. Ephralm Dnnk.. Hen. Bphraim Banks, a prominent public man or this 8'ite, died on January 6, at Lewlstown, aged seventy-eight. He was born In Lost Creek valley, in what is now the eonntyof Juniata, on January IT, 1791. For a time he was engaged In mercantile pursuits, but In 181T he was appointed by Governor Flndlay Prothonotary and Clerk of the Courts of Mifflin county, and removed to Lewlstown, where he resided for the balance of his lire. He studied law under the late Alexander A. Anderson, Esq., and was admitted to the bar in 1321. He represented Mifflin county In the Legislature In 1823-29-34, and In 1834 he was elected a member of the Constitu tional Convention. Be was elected Auditor Gene ral of the State In 1800, and was re-elected In 1858. This was the last publte office held by him ; but dur ing the balance of his life he took an active Interest In public affairs. Mr. Banks was highly esteemed by a large circle of friends, and be will be remem bered as an honorable and public-spirited citizen. NOTICES. -' NoTBTipa Fact! . . ALL .
