THE SALT SWINDLE. PromthtX. 1'. Wurld. " When Martin Chuzzlewit exhibited nausea at the conduct of the gentleman upon the ftteaniboat who imbibed his own knife pre paratory to helping himself to butter with it, the Hon. Elijah I'ograni observed, apostro phizing space, "The inveterate hatred of llri Ushers to our institutions in something re markable." So the Tribunt meets statements of plain faota and demands for simple justice with tho imputation of onpatriolinui, and consider that the aversion of free-traders and revenue reformers to American products is something remarkable. The World Hliowed that under the present tariff, and for the benefit of a few thievea and receivers of stolen goods, the people wero compelled to pay for salt whioh was available for packing meats five times its real worth and original cost. The Tribune retorts that the World is actuated by a fiendish desire to break the bruised salt-boilor and quench the smoking smelter of pig-iron. Thid is easy, but inconclusive. Before the final prciocatb ad populum we prefer to make an appeal to Congress. This salt swindle has been thoroughly discussed, and no Congressman has any excuse for igno rance of the real state of the case. It is an enormous tax upon an article of prime neces sity and universal use. Everybody in the United States suffers from it except the few salt-boilers who are made corruptly rich by it. It is the most shameless and indefensi ble though that is a bold word of all the swindles which Congress has perpetrated and which Congress sustains. If it has any possible excuse in policy, it is because it is almost the only ruid pro quo which New York can claim for her consent to the woollen swindles of New England and the pig-iron swindles of Pennsylvania. But New York, by the voice of her people and their chosen Governor, has proclaimed that she does not want it, and that ber submission to the other swindles is not to be conciliated by it. Then, in the name of common sense, which may have some chance of a hearing in Congress, as well as of common justice, which has not, why not abolish it and put salt npon the free list? Among these great wrongs, do one little right, and earn yourself the name, if not of public spirit, at least of shame enough not to uphold an impost which has been so clearly shown to bo an unmitigated robbery, and in behalf of which its ablest apologists have nothing but drivel and abuse to oner. THE NEEDS OF WOMAN. From (he N. Y. Tribune. Two diverse and somewhat inconsistent lamentations assail our ears, that of wives and mothers dying of over-work; that of sisters and daughters who can find nothing to do. How shall we reconcilo these simultaneous nlulations The mistresses of households rarely com plain that their husbands when they have husbands are too poor or too niggardly to provide them with needful help. On the con trary, they tell ns that they are able and will ing to pay fairly for all they need; but monev will not buy it. Though there be a hundred poor men's daughters growing up in their immediate vicinity, not one of them can be persuaded to help, for love or money, a neighbor to keep her household tidy. When we ask the daughters for a reason, they tell us that they are willing to work for wages, but they cannot endure the treatment accorded to one who hires out to do house work. Of course (you say), it is the tyrant, the oppressor, the enslaver of woman, that treats a hired girl thus ehamefully. No, it is not. The booted ruffian hardly presumes to speak to her; and, if he ever does upeak, be speaks civilly and deferentially. He may sometimes be too kind to nor; but this is very rare. Usually he is so glad to have her stay and help to make things smooth and tidy that he keeps his distance vigorously, and does not venture to address her without removing his hat. It is madam np stairs and her imps of daughters who give occasion to this complaint of an insolent and supercilious demeanor to wards "help," so far as it has any excuse. It Is she who is dying of never-ending drudgery who, if anybody, treats her neighbor's daugh ter so insufferably that the girl will Btarve or bin rather than do madam's housework. There is no corresponding hitch on the masculine side of the house: no farmer's bou imagines that he degrades or exposes him self to insult by hiring out to a neighbor to help him work his farm. He will chop, and plow, and mow, and dig, and milk, and clean stable, yet never suspect that he thereby lowers himself in the social hierarchy by so much as a peg. In fact, he feels, while thus doing, that he raises himself above his school mate who hunts, and fishes, and loafs, and can't be hired to work out. Who is to blame for this chaos in the household? Is it the mistress? Is it the maid ? Is there not some way of extracting from these diverse wants a mutual satisfac tion ? We don't know, and will not pretend to decide. All we can do in the premises is to tell a little Btory: In a Mohammedan mosque, preaching is not the monopoly of a caste or craft, but any one of the faithful may exercise his gift, if gift ho have. Bo Nasreddin (the traditional Turkish jester), going one day to the mosque where the people were assembled for prayers, and mounting what serves them fer a pulpit, thus accosted the expectant crowd: "0, true believers! do you know what I am going to say to you?" "No," was the general response. "Well," he re joined, "if you are such an ignorant, stupid set, I may as well save my breath," aod down he came. On another occasion, he re peated his ascent and his inquiry, and the as semblage, warned by their former rebuff, answered "Yes." "Very well," said he, "since yon know, there is no need of my telling you" and down he came again. On a third occasion, he renewed his experiment, end his fellow worshipers responded, "Some of us know, and some of us don't know.' "Very good," said he, for the last time de soending to the common level, "let those who know tell those was aon t know. EVENING IN A BllOADWAY SALOON'. from (As H. Y. 2'vms. Some people find fault with the lack of pic turesque elements in our civilization. These romantio Bonis banker after an infusion of the decayed anachronisms of the Old World, were it only for the sake of infusing a little " variety Into what they consider the too not ' form course of our daily existence. We of the old ballads In It, because we have no Scotts, Leslies, or Grahams to transmit deadly fends from generation to generation, and vary the even course of stealing their neigh bors' cattle with a robust and refreshing habit of breaking each other's heads. Tragedy languishes because suoh bloody quarrels as those of the Montagues and Capulets are supposed to have no parallel; and history, even, loses hftlf its fascination because we have no more Gnelphs and Ghib belines to give a touch of sanguinary personal hatred to the affairs of nations and empires. On the principle that a living dog is better than a dead lion, we fail to see any good reason why the modern ruffian may not yield poetic sugge stion ns well as the ancient moss-trooper and noblo or royal swash bucklers. What, for example, could be more replete with materials for a ballad-writer ore dramatist thau the progress and termination of the great feud between Jim Haggerty and "lleddy the Blacksmith?" Two rival citifs trained the pair, and sout thorn forth as a challenge to the world to phow scoundrels of a deeper dye. I'hiladelphia, however, failed to ap preciate her favored son, and, like nn un gracious step-dame, sent him adrift in a world that was hardly prepared to welcomo him. In New York he found at length con solation for the ingratitude ot his own fel low-citizens. There he had but one stead- fan t friend in the city government; here he soon discovered he might easily find a gqyid many; there the policemen were not afraid to arrest him when the occasion presented; here he was regarded with impressive awe by the force, and treated with that considera tion and respect which his versatile talents deserved. There was but one ninn who ventured to dispute Lis supremacy when it pleased him to enlly forth of an evening, attended bv his admiring and faithful henchmen. If New York was not jealous at seeing her own rriiiians excelled in their own especial walk, William Varley, alias "lleddy the Black smith," certainly was. He felt that the blue ribbon of pure rascality was in danger of being snatched from Manhattan, aad so, having an unquestionable right to become its champion, he meditated mischief to the youDg Thiladelphian. The smouldering feud burst into flame some months ago, when. after a day's conviviality, the two doughty champions had a "battle royal" amid the congenial surroundings of a Broadway saloon. On that memorable occasion, the bold representative of the City of Brotherly Love Lad recourse to whnt may be termed his "swashing blow, and which consisted of getting an opponent's head in chanaery . c, nnder his arm and then and there pummel ing it very badly with a decanter. LUggerl y, being either too useful a character to be locked up before an election, or his capture being too dangerous an achievement for the police, was allowed to enjoy unmolested all the honors of victory. It is impossible to say how soon he might have become a Com mon Councilman, or even a Sheriff, had not the untoward accident of Tuesday night brought his career to a beautiful termi nation. "Ifeddv" doubtless suffered some what in reputation from his inglorious da- feat, but he appears to have borne it philo sophically, sustained by the certainty that his opportunity for retrieving it would in due course occur. On Tuesday Ilacraertv had been bracing a constitution already showing signs of wear, with the natural stimuUnt of sleighing and the artificial one of numerous drinks. Attended by his customary body guard he had entered on the series of nightly prowlings, which is familiarly termed being on tne Tamnnee. To a man who valued decanters as much for being handy weapons of offense as for holding his favorite liquor, a saloon was likely to bring suggestions of a fight. Accordingly we find that on the even ing in question Haggerty's progress was plea santly varied by hard drinking and heavy fighting. He had already achieved another victory over his friends, the police, when in the full tide of elation, following a day well spent, ho entored the friendly shades of Pat. i.ean s saloon, and basked in the admiration of a select circle of admirers. Next to being in a fight himself, Haarzerty's dearest delight was to nee some other body so engaged. Accordingly, when two lesser rnflians came to high words on the great ques tion of whether Mace or Heenan was the greater pugilist, Haggerty felt that it was due both to the place, the company, and the subject, that the disputants should settle it by blackening each other's eyes. The pro prietor of the saloon appears to have had some base prudential considerations to urge on the subject, but he was Immediately over ruled, and the doors were shat as reli giously as if the cellar had been a Free mason's lodge and Haggerty Worshipful Or and Master. At the critical mo ment "lleddy the Blacksmith," appears like JJenvolio among the servants of the rival houses of Verona, and attempts to drag off one of the chief actors in the fight. This was more than the imperial Haggerty could stand, and after scornfully reminding the other ef his previous experience nnder simi lar circumstances, was preparing, by a move towards the decanters, to administer onoe more his "swashing blow." Warned by ex perience, the wary "lleddy" finished with his (ustol the career of a rival who would, doubt ess, have conferred a similar favor upon society bad he been allowed a lew minutes longer to do so. The world is well rid of such a man. We cannot affect to regret the result of this row; if the law will not take off the rogues, we suppose they must be left to finibh each other like the Kilkenny cats. PENNSYLVANIA THE WINNEIl. From, (he I'leoeluiui Leadtr. The latest and most exciting sensation in railway circles is an apparently well-founded rumor that the Pennsylvania Central interest has gained control of the Union raoino line, thereby distancing Vanderbilt and all other great railway emperors who had hoped to command the through trade to the Pacific The results of this gijjantio capture will at once be apparent. The Pennsylvania Central will at once divert the freight and passenger traffic to its own line, and the trade between San Francisco and New York will go east ward over the Tort Wayne and Pennsylvania Central, instead of following the more direct and natural channel along the Lake Shore and New York Central lines. This is the most gigantio feat of gobbling ytt undertaken by a railway corporation ia this country, and adds new emphasis to our oft repeated assertion that the time is already ripe for Congress to take hold of these rail way kings and determine whether, after all, the miehtieBt interests of the couutry are as houeleBsly at the mercy of two or three men as would now appear. The Pennsylvania Central is as stubborn as it is enterprising; when once its clutch tightens, it never lets Co its bold. Its last move is its master btroke, and Vanderbilt, Erie, and the Balti more and Ohio combined, will hud this vic tory of their rival one which will require all THE riCKES Cim fttllllesjarie aad A He? Br A Nlmred f the Under the heading of "PennylT ini Justice" the N. T. Tribune publishes the following editorial article: Justice, lh the land of Fenn, has always worn a significant smirk on her visage since tiat licit nt worthy bought in her name hi pos-f-essions from the red-cklns for a bag or two of bead, instead of stealinir them outright witb his other confreres. If she is not blind now. she appears to have a certain cast In her ere wtilch promptly turns in the other way If any one chooses to diop a douceur on the side of lior This was noticeably tho caso tho other day. A Mr. Ficken. a oiilliouulro, and alo the owner of a very peppery temper, became Incensed at ihe frequent rlnsflntr of his door-bell on last Valentine's Day, and. poking himself in tho hall, worked off hU aunoj aneo by putting a bul let into a little boy who was running pat, npoloclrlnir, when "the child was taken up ns dead and found to be respectable, by tn)hig "he really had supposed it was only one of those alley bnys,'' whom Mr. Ficken opparertlv regarded his legitimate prey, con siderately provided for him by nature, as tho Korillas lor Du Cbaillu. A man arrested at the nxtnc lime for stealing a slice of ham was koot, we lenrr, in Moyamenslng Jail for mouths; but justice in Philadelphia flows to whole sale dealers In suar like Mr. Ficken largely tempered with mercy. This plstollcr of babies was released on" bail, which he promptly forfeited and retreated to Europo at leisure, to increase his skill as a marksman. A week or two ago ho slated to the Governor that his longer sojourn abroad would be damaging' to the mi gar business, und that the payment of tho tail by his partner was also a drawback to be avoided if possible. Upon tho boy he had shrewdly settled a snin equivalent to that which a suit lor damages would have extorted from him. Justice, in tho shape of Governor Geary, lr stantly pronounced absolution upon Richard Ficken, condoning any offenses which he might have committed against the State or civil government. Now. whether tho proper course was to bang this Nina rod of the Inuocents or let Mm loose upon the rising generation, Is a question we cannot decide. The point we note In the matter Is that tho Pennsylvania Governor pardons before trial. The pardoning power in other executive officers is hold to lie in the remittance of sentence; but Mr. Geary is; jury, judge, and Governor, all In one, In New York such an assumption of power would be held as compounding a felony; but the Phihidelpbians bow to it with (Quaker-like submission. Hereafter Pennsylvania justice is open to a certain kind of remonstrance from any felon who may find "imprisonment Inju rious to his business." If the Governor has this apostolic power of pardon before trial, why not before tho act ? Why not sell indulgences to uiiv sugar-dealer with a trustworthy bank ac count and nn idiosyncracy for winging little boys on his front-door steps ? W ATONES. JEWELRYi ETC.
