Thk oonflioting ratnnra about the Tennessee leave her fate in doubt, but Increase the pro babilities that she has been obliged to trust to her sails instead of steam, and that her voyage has thas been protracted without Serious' j endangering the safetj of the com missioners and her crew. It is said that a rar vessel sold by the United States to the Ilaytien Government a few years ago was lost on a voyage from an American port to Ilayti, when she had on board a number of prominent men connected with the Ilaytien Government, and some of those who are fearful of the fate of the Tennessee Would regard her loss as one of the striking and shocking coincidences that occasionally ooour in national affairs. There appears to be good grounds, however, for the hope that the Tennessee is still safe, and that the chief tesult of the prolongation of her voyage will be such a delay in the investigation and report of the commissioners that the present Congress will be unable to act definitely and understanding on Grant's annexation scheme. If this anticipation proves correct, the San Domingo question will go over to the next Congress instead of being disposed of by the present House and Senate, and the chances of the" success of the Presidential policy will thus be materially diminished. When the Tennessee started on her voyage it was supposed that time would be afforded for her safe return before the ides tf March, and that a favorable report from the commissioners would probably insure the immediate passage of an annexa tion bill. This programme, however, has been substantially broken up either by adverse winds, defective machinery, or, possibly, by a fearful calamity; and from present indica tions the political future of the' nation may be sensibly affected by the mishaps of the vessel whose fate is now an object of universal solicitude. 7 HE WEST rOINT SQUADliLES. The squabbles among the West Point stu dents continue to engage the attention of CoDgress, and it was asserted in the de bate yesterday that the root of the trouble was not only the admission of a colored cadet, but "the presence of a cadet, the Hon of a man high in authority, who interfered with ord rs and discipline." It is to be re gretted that such difficulties arise in a na tional school of so much importance, and we hope that a solution will be found for them. "While every student at West Point ought to be taught that he owes his highest allegianoe to the whole nation, every mere partisan influence should be excluded, and offenders should be 'punished without fear, favor, or affection. It is bad enough that what is called "influence" determines who shall be the cadets, and "influence" of any and every kind should stop just at that point so that the institution may be con ducted on such principles as will gtve it the highest degree of efficiency. West Point is not supported by the nation as a hospital for youthful imbeciles, nor as a playground for young rioters, but as a nursery of the leaders of future American armies, and nothing should besufl'ered to militate again it the de velopment of th i mental, moral, and physical treugth of the cadets. 1I1E AMERICAN 8TEAMSUIP COM rANY. The names of the subscribers to the stock of the American Steamship Company have been published, and the list shows that the mer chants and business men of Philadelphia have fully appreciated the importance of this great enterprise, and have heartily given it their support. In the list of subscribers are the names of some of the best-known and most respected firms in Philadelphia, and all the' multitude of industrial enterprises which con tribute to the wealth of this city are repre sented. Many of the stock subscribers h ave also taken the bonds of the steamship com pany, and have otherwise exerted themselves efficiently to give it a fair start. The impor tance of a lice of European steamships as an auxiliary to the manufacturing and commercial interests of Philadelphia cannot be over estimated, and citizens of every class should contribute what they are able towards getting the vessels built and the line in running order at as early a day as is possible. Exten sive as is the list of stack subscribers, there are many prominent merchants and others of Philadelphia whose names are not found in it, and it is to be hoped that these will at least aid the enterprise by taking some of the bonds of the company. The amount of these bonds is not large for a great a ad wealthy city like this, and even if they were not secured by such a satisfactory endorse ment as that of the Pennsylvania Kailrod 1 Company, there ought to be no ditlioalty ia the disposal of them. As it is, they are as safe as any securities in the market, auJ there is consequently no excuse, especially for those who will be directly benefited by the proposed line of steamer-), if they are not all taken at an early d ly. If the company can obtain the mjuey represented by these bonds it will be abla Immediately to commence building its vessels, and in a very short time a number of noble Steamships will be travelling balweon tin port of Philadelphia and Europe, and we will obtain A commercial advantage over New York and other cities the value of which can scarcely be overestimated. Philadelphia has been repeated' accused of a want of enter prise, and as there is now a mtgnifieent op portunity to prove the incorrectness of such accusation, it ought not to be neglected. A body of five hundred mounted horsemen, who are supposed to have been members of a Kn-Klux KUd, recently broke open a jail in Columbia, South Carolina, and took out ten negro prisoners confined on charges of murder and arson, eight of whom they instantly killed. Before the days of the Ku-Klux similar outrages were not nnfrequently com mitted in the South in the name of Lynch law; and whatever they may be styled, they are indications of the prevalence of a spirit of barbarism exceedingly disgraceful to the community in which it is tolerated. Unhap pily many sections of the South need not only reconstruction but civilization, and it is vain to hope for the establishment of law and order until their savage instincts have been tamed. THE FINK A UTS. The Arademy ml Flit Arts. The directors of the Academy of Fine Arts have purchased a lot of ground in a very suit able location Broad and Cherry streets but they have as yet taken no steps towards erecting anew building, or at least they have done nothing towards exciting a public interest in the enterprise. The gentlemen composing the Board of Directors of the Academy of Fins Arts are all engaged in other occupations, which employ the major portion of their tlni", and ihi y either refuse or neglect to secure the co-operation of persons outside of their own body for the promotion of a scheme in which all the citizens of Philadelphia are more or less interested. The consequence of this manage ment, or rather want of management, is that the Academy is now, as it ever has been, an obstacle rather than an aid to the cause of art culturo in this city. It stands in the way of the establishment of an art school and art museum that will fulfil the proper ends for which such an institution ought to exist more than the Academy of Fine Arts ever has done as yet. It is possible that the directors of the Academy may be able, in course of time, to put up a building such as the arc in terests of the city demand, and when it Is com pleted fill It with works of permanent interest and value. They may also by theirown uuaided efiorts, or with the assistance of a limited circle of stockholders aud subscribers bo able to carry on art schools that will educate properly suc cessive generations of painters, sculptors, and industrial designers, and perform all the other functions of a first-class art school. Th? past history of the Academy of Fine Arts, however, does not inspire any very great expectations In this direction; and experience, if it is of any value as a criterion of the future, proves that if the new Academy is to be what it should be, a general tubllc Interest must be excited In it. The c'.ose corpo ration plan upoa which the old institution was confu ted, by which i hi professional artists were practically excluded from all share in its management, was its greatest drawback. The gentlemen who composed the successive boards of directors were not artists, but were busily engaged In other pursuits, and looked upon the Academy of Fine Arts more as an elegant play thing to amuse tbelr leisure moments thau as an important public institution that ought to exert a powerful Influence upon the culture of society. Now, if ever, is the time to remedy the defects of management which have impaired tu a usefulness of the Academy of Fine Arts in the past, and it Is particularly Important th it those who profess to be Interested in the matter should act with declslou and cnergv, as both la New York and Boston movements for the esta blishment of extensive art museums and art schools hive been started under remarkably favorable auspices. The collection of art works owned by the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts is a better nucleus for a great art institu tion than exists in America, and only a luck of energy and proper management cau prevent a really valuable art school from being established here. As it is, the only art school we have that is worthy of the name is the 8chool of Design for Women, and that Is embarrassed by a want of sufficient income to enable it to do all that Its principal Professor, T. W. Braid wood, doslr3s. The claim of the School of Design to notice does not consist alone In the fact that it carries out the aim of Its foundation in educatlug young women for a profession by which they can earn their living respectably, but rather In the thor ough educational course which every pupil is obl.'ged to pass through. Professor Braldwood's theory is that art Is a branch of education, and that an art school, to be worth anything, must be conducted npon a regular 6y stein which will firmly ground th i pupil In the elementary prin ciples which are at the foundation of all the vari ous branches of the fine arts. At the School of Design the pupil is taught to draw as in another school she would be taught to read, and Is gradu ally led from the simplest elements to the most difficult combinations the eye, the hand, and the intellectual and imaginative faculties all being trained at the same time. The c turse of instruction at the School of Design is principally devoted to industrial art, but the principle is one that is applicable to any school of art, no matter how extended its aims may be, and that the course of Instruction ut the School of De sign stops where it docs is due to a lack of means to carry It further rather thau a lack of disposition. The directors of this school have secured the co-operation of the Board of Public Education, immediately for the purpose of obtaining some pecuniary aid from the State, on condition that it will educate, free of charge, forty pupils from all parts of the State. We are glad that this step has been taken, for, by making the fiuhool of Design a public Institution in a more literal sense than it is at present, its usefulness will be greatly increased, and if the Board of Public Education takes an interest in its welfare It cm easily be made a uiom, Import xat adjunct to the common and liigu BchooU. It is impossible that we shall ever lu this country enjoy the eaiuo facilities that the great art echoois or r.urope u; but we can couipeu sate for our deficiencies aud to some extent improve upon tho European schools by intro ducing a practical system of art education such as cannot fail to prodji-o results of a most gratifying character. Io order to do thU, how ever, the matter must bo put before the public in snch a manner us to secure general sympathy and support. This support the uew Academy of l ine Arts will not receive, except to a very limited extent, unless the gentlemen who have its luiinagement in baud will shoYfaouie real tntcrpri-e and iu tercet lu the Institution. If tbey do take the proper steps In the matter, we have not the slightest doubt that they can ob tain without serious difficulty all the money they need, not only to erect an elegant and commo dious building, but to provide it with nil the ne cessary appliances of an art school and museum that 111 be a credit to Philadelphia. Othrr Art (Tlaitera. An exhibition of seventy-five plcture by Mr. Edward Moran will be opened in a few days at Earles' Galleries, for the benefit of the News boys' Home. Mr. Moran has been emploved during the last nine months In finishing a la-jre number of works In oil and water-celor, which have accumulated In his studio, and In executing a number of new works. These pictures em brace a great variety of styles and subjects, principally landscape and marine, and many of them are In Mr. Moran s best manner, I he exhibition, as being composed of the works of a single artist, will possess considerable Interest, and we hope that it will net a handsome sum for the very doerving Institution for who-e benefit it will be held. It is the intention of ihe artist to sell these works by auction, and he originally proposed to place them on free exhi bition. Learning, however, that the Newsboys Home was in need of funds, bo generously placed the entire collection at the disposal of the managers for a period of several weeks. One of the interesting features of this exhibition will be the catalogue which will contain be utl- fully executed lithographic copies of the pictures drawn upon stoue by the artist himself. This catalogue will of itself be a work of art of some value, as those who saw the proofs on exhibi tion at tuo Union League House last wtk will readily understand. Oue-fourth of ihu profit on the sale of the catalogues will also be given by Mr. Moran to the Newsboys' Home. At. the store of Messrs. Bailey & Co., Twelfth and Chesnut streets, there Is now on exhibition a work by a young Philadelphia lady artist, Miss Mary Stevenson, which Is worthy of no Ue on account of its fine artistic qii ilitie. It is a study of a young Italian peasaut girl, and the artist in copying her model has trans ferred much of the stiffness, or rather the prim ness, of tho original to her canvas. Tho little girl looks too much as If she were sitting for her portrait. This fault, however, Is ou the right side, as it indicates careful study of the model, the poiut wnerein most young artists, and particularly lady artist", are deficient. The picture, however, is beautifully painted, with a sure, fine touch and with a flue feeliug for color that are rather remarkable. There are not tuauy artists in Philadelphia who are ale to do any thing equally god in the same line. Messrs. Bailey & Co. have also ou exhibition thrco bronze vasef, cast at the foundry of Robert Wood & Co., of this city, from desigus by Horatio Stone, an Americau artist residing in Rome. The oiiginals of these vases were cast lu Rome for Mr. W. W. Corcoran, of Washing ton, who, desiiiug duplicates, had them cast by the Messrs. Wood. These vases are entitled resrcctlvely "The Republic," "Freedom," and "Ecce Homo," and are covered with emblematic bns-relUfs 'ntended io represent, the political, relhiou, and art progress of America. As spec'm n of bronze castings these vases are worthy o' hearty praise, and we doubt whether the original n e equal to thu copies made at the foundry of Messrs. Robert Wood & Co. As work - of art they are exceedingly Inferior, and it looks like a waiie o' good material to use so much fine metal for such very Indifferent designs. The vases themselves are far from being ele.ant in eh pe, white tUe figures which surround them i re b id y proportioned and badly arranged, and can scarcely be considered as more than cam ntures. Why Mr. Corcoran should wish to have such performances dupli cated is mo e tin we are able to Imagine. It may not be amiss to m ntiou that there are also on exhi bition at the store of Messrs. Bailey & Co. a number of fine works by o'd masters which should receive the attention of connois seurs, and of all w; o wish to understand upon what solid grounds of excellence tho fame of the old pa u ers rests. At Earlen' Galleries there is now to be seen a r markably fine picture by Van Lerius, of Antwerp, entitled "Cinderella and Her Sisters." This work was exhibited here some years ago, when it attracted a great deal of attention, and it will doubtless be remembered by many of our readers. It is a different treatmeutof the sub ject than is generally seen, and the artist has to some extent sacrificed the sentiment of the old-fashioned fairy tale for The purpose of lu creasing the attractions of his picture. The sisters of "Cinderella" are superb beauties, and their costumes and the accessories add grnatly to the gorgeonsness of the work. The picture is one of the best of its class that has ever been seen here, and it is well worthy of a visit. In one of the windows of Messrs. Caldwell & Co., Chesnut street, above Ninth, is an excel lent copy of "A F te Champetre" by Claude Lorraine, which was executed by Miss Gordon, a young lady-artist of this city, while studying in Europe, and which the has now offered for sale for the benefit of the French sufferers. Tb picture has all the appearance of being a very faithful duplicate of its original, aud it should receive the attention of art connoisseurs. NOTICES. VKKV CHKA". OCK El.KOtNT OVERCOATS.
