FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 17, 1871.
jy The Evenino Telegraph, from
Its original establishment, has been in the
receipt of telegraphic news from the New
York Associated Press, which consists of
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 of 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,
Press, 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
pafer published in this city in which the
afternoon despatches of the Associated
Press will appear.
TLe earliest regular edition of Th
Evenino Telegraph goes to press at
o'clock, and the BtibHotiuent regular editions
at 2j, 8J, and 4). Whenever there is im
portant Dews of the progress of the Euro
pean war, extra editions will be issued after
this Lonr, and before the regular time for the
early edition.
A VILLAINOUS AYO DANGSR0U3
. SGIIHME.
Tns last and most fatal blow at self-govern-ineiit
in the city of Philadelphia i about to
be Htruok by a band of oorrupt legislators
at IlarriHburg ! The rpso'n ions ad -pted by
the Republican State Committee on too 15th
instant, which were published iri"the Tele
graph of yesterday, direct pnblin attention to
(be magnitude and danger of this scheme,
but earnesty as they denounce if, they do
not fn'ly portray the length nd brdxdth of
its iniquity, nor the extent of the perils
which at this moment menace the tax
payers of this nuh ppy community. For
fome weeks past rumjrs have been in circula
tion that nnusua'ly infamous and villainous
legislation appertaining to Puiadolphia was
contemplated at the preaent seas on by a ring
of affiliated Democratic and Republican
members of the House and Senate; but it is
only within a few days past that the real
character aDd hideous enormity of this
Bohemehave been clearly exposed. Republican
ascendancy in Philadelphia is to be threatened
at the most vital points; the control of our
citizens over their most important Ijoal
affairs is to be taken from them; and a system
of wholesale robbery and plunder, fashioned
after that which makes New York the most
terribly misgoverned and oppressed city in
the world, is to be fastened as a perpetually
galling yoke upon the necks of the tax payers
of Philadelphia. TLe scheme has even a
deeper scope than this, for as the New York
adepts x the art of plunder are
the active agents in engineering it, so they
are to transfer ready-made all the machinery
by which they extract the life-blood from
New York; and they will be f al- to all their
inslibcta if they do not exact, in turn, a share
of the profits wrung from our oppressed
municipality. The agencies whereby the
oitizens of New York are p'nndered are
manifold, and one of the most promi
nent is the affiliation of oorrupt Re
publican leaders with thi chief j of
Tammany Hall; and this i the
under y ng idea of the scheme which it is
proposed to extend to Philade'phi by the
creation of a Highway Commission, a Gas
Commission, a Water Commission, and a Tax
Commission for this city. Each of these de
partments, under the existing arrangements,
is at onoe under the control of the Republican
party, and, to a great extent, under the con
trol of the people. If the proposed new law
Is adopted, however, the people of Philadel
phia will at onoe lose all power over their
highway, gas, water, and tax-assessing autho
rities, an(! this power will be transferred to
cliques of confederated tj rants, who will act
en many points, in harmony with the De
mooraoy, if not in their direct interest. To
effeot this end Tammany Hall has raised a
corruption fund to buy outright some Repub
lie an members of the Legislature, and as a
further bribe, some of their particular
friends are to be placed on the different
commissions; and, subsequently, tribute is
to be levied forever, from the city, to fill the
coffers of these cunning cormorants, their
successors, and their partisan friends and
favorites. '
There was a time when government was
supposed to be for the benefit of the
peop'e,, but nowadays there is a constant
tendency to convert governments Into mere
trgines of extortion for the enrichment of
partibftu leaders. Nowhere has suoh a fearful
illustration of this tendenoy been given at in
New York city, and yet, instead of sedulously
Fbunniog the evils made manifest by daily ex
posures in New York journals, faithless legis
lators are on the point of inflicting them on
this community. The disclosure of suoh
a design should incite the most vigorous and
imperative remonstrances from every faith
ful Republican in Philadelphia and in other
poitions of this Commonwealth, as well as
from every citizen who has not lost all faith
in local pelf-government. The peril is great
and imminent. All Democratic members at
Harrisburg are said to be oommitted to the
proposed project; several Republicans are
also inclined to support it; and it will require
resolute and determined efforts to defeat the
most flagrant and dangerous scheme ever
conceived in the brains of the robbers of the
people.
TDK ROBBINS DIVORCE CASE.
The divoroe case of Robbins vs. Robbing,
which has been on trial before J adge Peirce
in the Court of Common Pleas during the
past two weeks, was oonoluded yesterday by
the jury rendering a verdict in favor of the
respondent. This verdict has been antici
pated by all who have carefully read the evi
dence produced on both sides and the admi
rable summing up of the case made by Judge
Peirce in his charge to the jury. Mrs. Rob
bins is legally and morally acquitted of the
scandalous charges made against her, but
neither the verdict of the jury nor the sym
pathy of all deoent men and women in the
community can recompense her for the suffer
ings she must have endured previous to and
during the progress of the trial. She was
charged with most degrading offenses,
and witnesses of the most degraded
description were placed one after
another npon the witness stand to swear her
character away. The story they told, how
ever, was too systematically straightforward
to stand the tests of cross-examination and
rebuttal, and long before the end of the trial
it was perfectly evident that Mrs. Robbins
was the victim of a vile conspiracy, the head
and front of which was the mia who had
promised at the altar to love, cherish, and pro
tect her. A more utterly disgraceful trial
than this has never taken place in this city,
and its result should have the effeot of banish
ing forever from the society of deoent people
the man who caused it to take place. Rob
bins being tired of his wife for he cannot be
credited with being the victim of even so
mean a passion as jealousy seems to have
deliberately planned to get rid of her by
trumping up the vilest accusation a husband
can bring against his wife.
The witnesses npon whom he chiefly relied
to sustain his accusation are persons who
would not be entitled to belief unless their
testimony was strongly corroborated, and
complete as was the disgusting story told by
these people, all appearance of truth van
ished from il when the witnesses for the
respondent gave their version of the affair.
The aoousation against Mrs. Robbins was not
sustained in one Bingle point, but the case of
the libellant rested entirely upon exaggera
tions of words and aotions wholly innooent,
and npon a mass of fabrication was
evidently invented, and witnesses em
ployed who were ready to swear to them
as facts for a consideration. One of the wit
nesses was forced to confess himself a per
jurer, while the majority of the others were
clearly shown to be so.
The charge of Judge Peiroe to the jury was
as impartial a summing up of the case as
could have been made, but it was impossible
for the Judge, even if he desired to, to con
ceal bis opinion that Mrs. Robbins was clearly
entitled to a verdict, and that no ground
whatever had been left for. the libellant to
stand upon. The Jndge balanoed the evi
dence on both sides, and gave every point
due consideration, and the only possible re
sult of this method of treating it was to make
the charge the strongest argument for Mrs.
Robbins that could have been mae.
Mrs. Robbins has established her inno
cence, but nothing can compensate her for
the outrage done her in being obliged to sub
mit to such accusations as were brought against
her, to the defence of her character in a long
and tedious trial, exposed to the gaze and
comments of hundreds of spectators, and all
the sufferings whioh a lady must endure
under such circumstances. She praotically
has no remedy for the great wrongs she
has endured, but the people of Philadelphia
owe it to her, to themselves, and to the
cause of publio decency, to make Mr. Robbins
feel the weight of their indignation. lie
should be made to understand by the plainly
expressed contempt of his fellow-citizens
that men cannot perpetrate suoh outrages as
he has been guilty of with impunity, and if
he cannot be made to suffer any legal punish
ment, be can at least be made to feel that
Philadelphia will not be a desirable plaoe of
residence in the future.
Among the list of special bills introduced
yesterday in the Legislature was one by
Mr. Nagle, in the House ef Representa
tives, authorizing the Philadelphia Poly
technic University to issue f 500,000 worth
of stock, to borrow $250,000, and to consti
tute themselves a board of underwriters, with
a view of protecting the lives and property of
crews and passengers on board vessels. The
most that is generally known about the Phila
delphia Polytechnio University is that the
courts have decided that it has no right to
the name it bears, but admitting that its
name is all right, it is difficult to understand
how suoh an institution will perform its le
gitimate functions by acting as a board of
underwriters. Such a board, before it ob
tains such privileges as are accorded in Mr.
Nagle's bill, ought to produce some evidence
that it is composed of responsible men. and
that it will carry out the objects of it crea
tion in a proper manner. It would be well
for the Legislature, before acting finally upon
Mr. Nagle's bill, to find out who the parties
re why are represented under the somewhat
indefinite title of the Philadelphia Polytech
nic Society.
THE CITT TRUSTS.
For the first time in the history of the city
the publio have now presented to them, in a
e'ear, explicit, and convenient form, a his
tory of the various trust funds held by the
city, a statement of how the funds have been
used In the past, and a plain exhibit of their
present standing. This document is the re
sult of the labors of a .special committee ap
pointed on the 25th of February last by the
Board of Directors of City Trusts for this
special service. The committee consisted of
Messrs. Edward King, OuBtavus S. Benson,
and Charles H. T. Collis. These gentlemen
have labored faithfully for one year, and
have examined thoroughly all the laws, wills,
and documents connected with the various
trusts. The report is a voluminous document,
and gives all the information which is at all
necessary, or, in fact, which it was possible to
obtain. To the exertions of Mr. Charles n.
T, Collis is due entirely the existence of the
report in this desirable form, and the thanks
of all who are at all interested in suoh mat
ters are certainly due him. With this infor
mation, which heretofore it has actually
been impossible to obtain, the private citizen
can now judge nnderstandingly of the work
ings of the new Board of Trusts, and abuses
whioh were the order under the old arrange
ment can no more exist. The fair and open
statement invites examination, and this in
itself is a sure guarantee of a more satisfao
tory administration. The report gives Ihe
figures, principal and interest, for each trust
in detail, and the expenditures in a like man
ner. It is printed in a distinct and neat
form, for f nture reference, and is invaluable.
TBE NEW FRENCH GOVERNMENT.
The cable despatches forwarded last night
from Franoe state that the delegates to the
new Assembly will probably form a Provi
sional Republio, with M. Thiers as President.
This Nestor of French politics is the ablest
statesman in that unhappy country, and
almost the only prominent oitizen she pos
seeses who has had the courage and sagacity
to discern and proclaim important truths at
many critical periods during the last thirty
or forty years. During a portion of Louis
Philippe's reign he practically ruled
Franoe; during Louis Napoleon's career
as President he led the opposition;
after the Empire was proclaimed he detected,
exposed, and denounced its blunders; when
war was declared last year against Prussia, he
warned his countrymen that t!-:ey were not
prepared for the content they were provoking;
when the Empire was overthrown, he beg'
ged, but in .vain, for the establishment, by
constitutional means, of a constitutional Gov
eminent on its ruins, instead of a revoln
tionary Provisional Government; and yet
after theFavre-Troohu-Rocbefort organization
was installed in power, he did what he could
to relieve his distracted country. These are
no slight recommendations, and the probable
elevation of M. Thiers is a good augury for
France in every aspect except one, viz., he is
commonly believed to be a devoted adherent
of the Orleans dynasty, and he may so use
his temporary power as to establish that
dynasty on the French throne. If he is now
animated by the honorable ambition of act
ing as the first of a long line of presidents of
a bona fide French republio, he may render
incalculable service to his oountry, if he in
tends to act merely as the catspaw of Louis
Philippe's descendants, he may do more harm
than good.
The Amerioan Steamship Company is so
near being fairly in a position to commence
practioal operations, that it is to be hoped a
last final effort will have the effect of making
the enterprise a complete suocess. Bonds to
the amount of $1,100,000 have already been
taken by corporations and individuals, leav
ing only the comparatively small sum of
$400,000 yet to be r si sed. With this money
in hand, tno company will be enabled imme
diately to commence the construction of its
vessels,, and considering the vast import'
ance of the proposed line, the amount ought
to be obtained without serious difficulty.
These bonds, it should be remembered, are
indorsed by the Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany, and are as good investments as any class
of securities in the market.

At a meetlDg of the Officers and the Philadelphia
Members of the
Republican State Central Commit
tee of Pennsylvania,
Held this day,
On motion of JAMES W. M. NBWXIN, seconded
by THOMAS C. I 'A It BUR, the following Resold
tlona were unanimously adopted :
Whereas, It la we'l known In political circles that
a combination lias been entered Into between some
so-called Republicans aid certain Influential mem
bers of the Democratic party, to crca'e by leglsls
tlve action a number of commissions to govern the
city of Philadelphia;
And whereas, Said comnjlsasona are toteorpt.
nized In the tame manner, and with the sami ob
jects, as those now In ( peratlon In ef York city,
whereby the property or all lti clt'zem Is at the
mercy of Irresponsible officials, and a large sum of
money has been raised by the leading Democntlc
politicians of that city to secure tie consurnra itfr n
of this scheme In order to carry Pennsylvania for
the Democracy In 1972 ;
And whereas, The safety of the Republican party
requires the utmost fidelity of intention on the pirt
ot its Representatives, in order to secure lti triumph
in the next Presidential campaign,
Therefore Resolved, That the proposition to mis
govern the city of Philadelphia by Commissions, and
the attempt by legislative action to l laee the pro
perty of Its citizens at the disposal of persons not
enjojiug the confidence of the public, and to
depi lve the people of the rig'it of self-government,
meets with our unqualified condemnation, and we
call npon the Republican Senators and Representa
tives at Harrisburg to vote against the same.
Resolved, That the people and the pres be and
they are hereby earnestly requested to take active
measures to prevent the introduction in'o war midst
of the odious system of government under which the
people of New York City are now suffering.
