A SAD SUBJECT.
Thk Washington Square lament which we
published in our advertising columns on
Saturday, is a singular doonmont. It ia a
last final charge along the whole line to over
come the majority of nearly 20,000 votes by
which Fenn Square was selected as the site
for the public buildings.
Much has been said by some of the very
signers of this remarkable document about
trioks and deceptions practised upon the
people, in advance of the election, by the
Building Commissioners; but "for ways that
are dark and for tricks that are vain," this
protest of theirs is "peculiar."
It starts out with the declaration that
tl?nany of " voted for Penn Square. How
many? Come now, gentlemen, own up; how
many? We will answer for you: Two, or
perhaps three; certainly not five. Messrs.
Talham, Fell, Bullitt, Cope, Franciscus, Da
tilb, Lombaert, and Claghorn certainly did
not sign as among the "many of us who voted
for Fenn Square." Everybody knows why
they favor a down-town locality. They
have a right to express their opinion, and
did express it in October last; but
they were beaten, and as fair men they ought
to content themselves to remain beaten.
The two, or perhaps three, signers who
voted for Fenn Square confess that they did
bo npon the conviction, based upon the reso
lution of the commission, that the buildings
would be erected upon tho squares, and not
upon the streets; and yet the language of that
resolution was in these simple and unmis
takable words: "The commission is em
powered by act of Assembly either to locate
Beparate buildings upon the four squares or
one building at the intersection, as the ma
jority of the commission may deter
mine." Now suppose the commis
sioners determined to build upon the
four squares, might not thousand of citizens
who favor the intersection claim that the
resolution indicated the selection of that site,
and that a departure from it was an imposi
tion upon them? It is well known that to
every man whose name was upon the assess
ment list in October last a coffin circular was
sent, purporting to contain a fair diagram of
Broad and Market streets as they would ap
pear when blocked up by the public buildings,
in which the streets were narrowed instead of
being widened, and which altogether was a
very unsightly misrepresentation of the plan
subsequently adopted by the commissioners.
It was this publication, magnified upon the
house walls and in the daily papers, which
induced the commissioners to declare that no
action bad yet been taken upon that subject.
This was their simple duty to the public and
to the thousands of voters who favored the
intersection, and who had a right to be pro
tected against the misrepresentations of the
Washington Squarites. We are very sorry to
find that gentlemen of acknowledged intelli
gence should have been "convinced," by the
language of that resolution, that the buildings
were not in any event to be placed upon the
intersection. .
But, says the lament, "to occupy the inter
section would disappoint the expectations of
those by whom Fenn Squares were seleoted
as the site for public buildings." We don't
believe a word of it, and until those advo
cates of Washington Square can "rail" the
20,000 majority out of existence we will
never believe it. We are of opinion that
certainly nine out of ten of the persona who
cast their votes for Penn Square would to
day vote for locating a single grand building
in the centre, in preference to four incon
venient and more expensive buildings
upon the four squares, and, more
over, we believe that since the
removal of the trees and the oonsoquent de
velopment of the immense area of ground at
Broad and Market streets, at least twenty
five per cent, of the persons who
voted for . Washington Square would
to-day vote "for the centre of Fenn
Square. Certainly very few Masons could be
Induced ever again to encourage the planting
of trees or erection of a building which
' would , effectually obstruct the present
southern view of their temple at Broad and
. Filbert streets.
The tear dropped by these protestors over
the inconvenience of celebrating the cen
tennial anniversary is really very touohing
it ia indeed! Just to think of it! Broad
street will be obstructed, and the boou-a-laddies
will be compelled to wheel to the
right or left, "as the case may be," instead of
going straight ahead "forward, guide left,"
and there may be a 'ew blocks of unsightly
granite or marble on the thoroughfare, or a
cartload of bricks. What twaddle! Would
not the construction of four buildings cause
just as much confusion, and be even wore
unsightly.. If the Washington Squareitea,
with Mayor Fox at their head, would with
draw their opposition, this grand edifice
would in 1876 be the most attractive
feature of our city, and would do muoh to
remove the impression existing amongst
strangers that we lack enterprise and harmony.
But perhaps these gentlemen would prefer we
should replant the trees, reset the railing,
and pass an ordinance that no new building,
gas-pi pes, water-pipes, or pavement shall be
erected or laid during the year 1876, lest we
should have to "blush" for the appear anoe of
our thoroughfares.
Having exhausted such arguments as these
in their appeal to the commissioners, and
satisfying themselves of their weakness, these
petitioners next accuse the gentlemen to
whom they address themselves of "imprudent
haste," of the possession of "unlimited power
to tax," and of an apprehended "prodigal and
unwise expenditure of publio money."
Now we venture to say that if Washington
Square had been selected, and these Building
Commissioners had done, and were doing,
with that locality what they are now doing
with Fenn Square, with two or three solitary
exceptions not one of these thirty-seven
signers would have opened his lips.
We presume that when this dooument was
being prepared and signed, the subscribers
well knew that it would not deter the com
missioners from performing what they hon
estly believed to be their duty to the people
who so overwhelmingly selected Penn Square;
otherwise they would have abstained from the
gratuitous fling at the integrity of the gen
tlemen composing the board. We very much
regret to see names of gentlem upon the
list who we feel satisfied signed hastily and
without a careful reading of this part of the
document. Their conduct compares rather
unfavorably with that of Messrs. Cuyler and
Perkins, who were always outspoken and
active workers in behalf of Washington
Square, but who to-day yield to the will of
the majority, and are earnestly at work against
their own pecuniary interests, whilst a dis
honest opposition upon their part would in
all probability so thwart the action of the
board as to result in the delay, and perhaps
abandonment, of the whole work.
The course of the Building Commissioners
is a very plain one. If they believe the inte
rests and convenience of the publio are best
served by the erection of one building, with
Broad street widened where it passes around
it from 110 feet to 270 feet, it is their simple
duty to carry out that plan, without stopping
to listen to and discuss the objections raised
by people who want the buildings down town
or nowhere.
We have every confidence in the judgment,
integrity, and good taste of the commissioners.
We believe Mr. John Rice . to be emineatly
the right man in the right place as the head
of this board, and we depend upon Messrs.
Cuyler, Wetherill, Perkins, and their collea
gues to unite with him in a prosecution of
the work with all becoming speed, and they
will have the earnest endorsement, for so
doing, of all persons who are not blinded by
their selfish interests.
FICKEN S ANNIVERSARY.
To-mobrow is St. Valentine's Day, an anni
versary that has chiefly been remarkable for
the opportunities it affords to love-sick
swains and damsels to make eaoh other ac
quainted with their amorous prepossessions,
but which last year was signalized in this city
by the commission of a crime whioh will
make St. Valentine's Day hereafter memorable
for one of the most outrageous insults ever
offered to justice among a people who profess
to have a respect for law and decency. On
St. Valentine's Day of last year Richard
Ficken, a wealthy sugar refiner of this city,
shot a boy by the name of Arthur Oarrao, and
wounded him so that he will probably be a
cripple for life. After a delay that was not
particularly creditable to the offioers of jus
tice, be was indicted for this offense
and was required to give seou
rity in an amount that, considering his
wealth and the magnitude of his offense, was
not a large one, and as soon as he was free
from the clutches of the law he fled to
Europe. When his case was oalled for trial,
he did not put in an appearance, and his bail
was declared forfeited. Immediately a strong
pressure was exerted at Harrisburg to per
suade the Governor to interfere to prevent
Ficken from being punished after the manner
of common, poverty-stricken criminals, and
the felony of which he was guilty was com
pounded for a sum of money. It is under
stood that it cost $50,000 to obtain for Ficken
a pardon for an offense for which he had
never been tried and found guilty by regular
process of law. $20,000 of this sum
was paid, or ia understood to have been
paid, to the injured boy, and the other
$30,000 went to cover the extraordinary
expenses attending suoh an extraordinary
effort on the part of Governor Geary, his
Attorney-General, Messrs. William B. Mann,
Lewis O. Cassidy, and other interested, to
cheat the law of its victim and to provent
Richard Fieken from being locked up in the
penitentiary, as he certainly would have
been if he had . been , a poor man.
Ficken, by the grace of Geary and the ex
penditure of $50,000, is now able' to return
to Philadelpbia whenever he chooses without
fear that he will be held responsible for his
crime, and with nothing to hinder him from
resuming the pport of shcoting small boys if
he feels disposed to pay for a lioonse to do so
at HarrisLurg. . .
We wish the citizens of Philadelphia to
bear in mind that every individual implicated
in this transaction, Ficken, Geary, F. Carroll
Brewster, William B. Mann and Lewis 0
Cassidy, is guilty of the offense of com
pounding a felony, and that tlie pardon
granted by Geary, although it relieves Ficken
from the legal oonsequences of his crime
is in reality an aggravation of his offense
Geary, F. Carroll Brewster, Mann, and Cas
sidy are all aspirants for offices of trust and
honor, but this transaction should forever
seel their fate as politicians with the people
of Philadelphia and Pennsylvania, as it is an
all-sufficient proof that they are utterly un
worthy of confidence. The worst name At
toioey-Geueral Brewhter had for Fickeu's
crime was "gross negligence;" and the moral
ntnattv
cvunw w vioni i iv r o m nil ' w 4
did not appear to imagine, to judge by tuo
wording of the pardon, ' that he was doing
anything improper by pardoning a oriminal
before a jury had pronounced upon bU guilt.
As for Messrs. Mann and Cassidy, who were
the active agents in this aff ir, they clearly
aoted outside of the sphere of their legiti-
mat e duties as attorneys and counsellors at
aw, and are entitled to no immunity for the
share they took in promoting a corrupt bar
gain and in compounding a felony.
This business of compounding felonies and
releasing rich men from the consequences of
their crimes is becoming altogether too com
mon, and as an appropriate supplement of
the Ficken crime we have the affair of the
young gentleman of "good connections,"
Mr. Tryon Raakirt, whose forgeries are being
settled by private arrangement, while for
the sake of his highly respectable and wealthy
friends and relatives no efforts whatever are
being made to bring him to trial, and to make
of him an example that will serve to warn
other fast young men against travelling the
same road that he has done. In New York
young Ketchum, in spite of his respectable
cennections, was sent to Sing Sing for the
same offense as that of which Reakirt is
guilty, and yet we are aooustomed to draw
familiar comparisons between the adminis
tration of justioe in this city and in New
York. If Reakirt is not brought to trial it will
be simply because he is able to command
enough money to prevent himself from being
subjected to the legitimate consequences of
his crime, and his case will be nearly as great
a scandal upon Pennsylvania and Philadel
phia justice as that of Richard Fioken. These
are really very serious matters, for they de
note a demoralization among those who are
appointed to administer justice and a loose
sense of the value of law that bode no good
to the future of the Commonwealth, and it is
the duty of all law-abiding citizens to pro
test with the utmost energy against the idea
that any man can escape the consequences of
crime because bo is able to command a greater
amount of wealth than his neighbors.
,
NAPOLEONS PROCLAMATION TO
T11E ELECTORS OF FRANCE.
Napoleon has at last broken his long silence
by a proclamation addressed to the electors
of France, with the evident object of keep
ing alive the pretensions of his dynasty to
imperial rule. In the elections now progress
ing the Bonapartes have been well-nigh for
gotten amid the struggles between the Or
loanists and the respective republican fac
tions; but France probably still continues to
possess a considerable number or liona-
partist politicians, and the ex-Emperor wishes
to furnish them a platform on which they
can rally their shattered forces. The terrible
disasters which Napoleon invited tby his
declaration of war against Prussia, and the
fearful inefficiency of himself, his chosen
leaders, and his boasted, army have
covered him with so much disgrace that
no ordinary motive could have induoed him
ts break the loDg silenoe whioh shielded his
icnominy by the protecting veil of obsourity.
But in a crisis like the present he had to
speak, or suffer the pretensions of his dynasty
for the French throne to go by default. He
therefore practically enters the political cam
paign now progressing in France as the leader
of a party contending for mastery, and even
from his prison at Wilhelmshohe flings down
a gauntlet at all hostile or rival organiza
tions. 1 Now, as ever, impudent and
audacious to the last degreee, this disgraced
and despicable usurper assumes the aggres
sive. Instead of apologizing for his own
sins, shortcomings, and blunders, he makes a
merit of his refusal to negotiate a treaty
with the invaders, and attempts fix the re
sponsibility of the most distressing of French
woes upon those who deposed tho Empress.
Oblivious of his own delinquencies, he de
clares that "it is time to call to aoconnt the
usurpers for bloodshed and ruin and squan
dered resources;" and while he adroitly an
nounces his indifference to what he terms his
"repeatedly confirmed rights," he asserts that
until the people are regularly assembled "all
acts are illegitimate," and he holds out, as
the last hope of a distraoted nation, the
assurance that "there is only one govern
ment in whioh resides the national sove
reignty able to heal the wounds, to bring
hope to firesides, to reopen the profaned
churches for prayer, and to restore industry,
concord, and peace.
The proclamation is, substantially, a bid
for the restoration of Bonapartism, based on
the theory that its leader did his best, even in
the hour of his humiliation, to eavd France;
that his plans were thwarted by the deposition
of the Empress; that, while he failed to sub
due the Germans in battles near the frontier,
his successors did even -vorae by failing to
defend the citadel of the nation; that there
has been no legitimate authority in France
since. Eugenie and "Louis and I" were de
throned; and that peace, order, and prosperity
will not be permanently restored until the
Corsican brood gets back once more upon the
throne they have stained with bo many orimes
and follies.
This plea is a cunning one, and though it
Is essentipllv weak and false, it is still better,
in a mere partisan point of view, than no
plea at ell. From time to time the continued
existence of a Bonaparte faction in France,
despite the disasters at Metz and Sedan, has
been ditcloFed, and the hero of Strasbourg,
Boulogne, the covp d'etat of 1851, and the
campaign of 1870', is determined to keep it
alive, if iapucent assertions and arrogant de
mends can maintain its exhtenoe. Louis Na
roll on is no soldier and a poor statesman,
Lut be is a shrewd, desperate, and unscrupu
lous politician, and he may give other French,
politicians much trouble before they Bncceed
in firmly establishing a new government.
: Thk "sbinners" are again appealing to the
Legislature to grant permission for the estab
libhment of curbstone markets in the upper
portion of the city. The members of the
Legislature from Philadelphia know well
enough that these markets are considered un
mitigated nuisances to store-keepers, property-holders,
and all persons who are obliged
to pass through the streets in which they are
ocated. Instead of allowing them to be
further extended, those now in existence
should be prohibited, and the "shinners
forced to carry on their business in a legiti
mate manner in regularly appointed market
bouses. Street markets may do well enough
for small country towns, but they are entirely
out of place in a great city like Philadelphia,
and they should have been discontinued long
ago. The "sbinners" have nearly mined the
legitimate trade upon some of the streets
upon whioh they have located themselves, and
the Legislature will be perpetrating a griev
ous wrong if it grants them any further pri
vileges.
OBITTTARY.
MUi Alice Carr.
A despatch from New York auniunees the death
In that city yesterday of Misi Altc Carey, at the
age of 0ft j. She was bora near Cincinnati, Ohio, In
1821, and first attracted the attention of the public
by her contributions to the National Era, the weekly
paper in which Mrs. Harriet Beeoher Stowe first
gave to the world the story of "Uncle Tom's Oablu,'
KllssCary's contributions to this Journal appeared
under the nom it plum of "Patty Lee." 8lnce then
Bhe has been a contributor, in both prose
and verse, to aimost every literary periodical of the
country, and her name has become one of the best
known among American authoresses. Her poems
have been collected and republished in several vol
umes. Several more ambitious woika also ema
nated from her pen, Including thrce novels
'Hagar, a Btarj of To-day," "Married, no- Mated,"
and "Hollywood" and a series of sketches of
Western life, entitled "Clovornook," which enjoyed
a wide circulation both at home and abroad. Miss
Cary had an attractive and piquant style, and many
of her fugitive poems gave evidence of genuine
poetical talent.
Hlffnor Antonio Baalolt.
Slgnor Antonio Bagloll, whose death la New York
city on Saturday, at the age of seventy-six, Is re
ported, at one time enjoyed considerable notoriety
by reason of his being the father of the late Mrs.
General Sickles. He was born at Bologna, Italy, la
1T96, and devoted himself to the study of music
from an early age. He graduated irom
the Naples Conservatory In the same class
with Bellini and Mercadante In 1932 he came to
the United States ai Musical Director of tho Moa
trestor Italian Opera Troupe, the suocess of which
under his management was unequivocal. , This
was the erst Italian opera company tnat
ever visited the United States. He settled
permanently In NeYork city as a professor of
music, and achieved great success as an Instructor,
many of the profes: ional singers of the day having
been his pupils. The marriage of his daughter to
Daniel E. Sickles was destined to bring him before
the publio In a painful way, at the time of the la
trlgucs which ended In tho killing of Philip Barton
Key by SlckleB.
TJenry Van Meter,
whose death at Bangor, Mo., at the advanced age of
one hundred and ten years. Is reported, was one of
the most interesting colored men In the country.
During the Revolutionary War he was a slave of
Governor Kelson, of Virginia. After the close et
the war he was sold and taken west of the Blue
Ridge, to the extreme frontier, whence he made his
escape to Cincinnati, then a mere hamlet. He be
came the servant of an oill -er la St. Clair's army,
and saw much dangerous service in the North
west. After the peace of 1795, be lived for
a time In Chllllcotbe, Ohio, and then removed to
Philadelphia, where he was sent to school for the
first time by some member of the S xMety of Friends,
and learned to read and write at the age of forty.
He subsequently mad several voyages to Europe as
a common sailor, and on the outbreak of tho war
of 1818 shipped as such la the privateer Lawrence.
He was captured, sent to Plynftuth, Kagland, and
confined for some time la Dartmoor, where he wit
nessed the massacre of ISIS. Miny years ago he
took up his residence In Bangor, where he lived an
Industrious and respected life, in the almost unim
paired enjoyment of his faculties of mind and body
to the time of bis death.
