THE COMMISSION SCHEME. '
Thk convention called to revise the rales of the
Republican party of Philadelphia has followed
the example of the State Central Committee
in denouncing the scheme to hand over seve
ral important departments of the city govern
ment to sew commissions, composed partly of
Democrats and partly of Republicans, and any
Philadelphia Republican member of the
House or Senate who favors this monstrous
proposition will evidently provoke the intense
indignation of a betrayed constituency. It is
to be feared, however, that the snake,
though Bootohed, is not yet killed. A
prominent Demooratio member of the
Legis'ature has boasted that if the bill passes
it will be immediately signed by the Uorer
nor; and as the Democrats are ready to sup
port it as a party measure, the defection of
a few venal or weak Republican members
will secure its passage. To blind the eyes of
the publio it has been proposed to insert in
the early stages of the Commission bill or
bills the names of well-known and respect
able Philadelphians as commissioners, and
then, when indignation is allayed by this de
vice, to substitute for suoh citizens haokneyed
and serviceable partisans. This triok, and
others equally deceptive, may be resorted
to; and the only safe ground to
take is to insist that the Legislature shall not
undertake to create any more commissions, of
any character, for the government of Phila
delphia. ' Those now in existence are com
posed chiefly of estimable citizens who enjoy
the public confidence, but their success
affords no indication of what is to be expected
from commissioners made up of poorer mate
rial. It is especially dangerous tj oreate
commissions endowed with a large amount of
patronage, as a highway or water commission
necessarily would be; and the existing system
of levying taxes in New York shows what is
to be expected from a partisan tax com
mission. If we are to have municipal elec
tions at all, there should be at least something
left for the people to govern, and the mag
nates at Harrisburg should not steal from
them the power of determining by their votes
a few of the questions in which they are
deeply interested. One of the most serious
perils of the hour is the danger that all the
rights and privileges of the people will in
time be handed over to irresponsible and un
scrupulous commissions, and that our citizens
will wake up some fine morning to find that
they , have been tied hand and foot by a
few knots of politicians who will thenoeforth
manage all municipal affairs on a close co
poration system. At all events, it is clear
that the present Legislature is not disposed
to make any good commissions for us, and
that, if the backbone of its Republican mem
bers is not stiffened, some very bad and dan
gerous commissions will be spawned at the
present session.
THE SUFFERING FRENCH
The greatest evil of war is not perhaps in
the loss of life and the suffering from dread
ful wounds that occur among the actual oo n
batants, but it is rather in the fearful distress
that inevitably follows in the wake of con
tending armies among the people of the
country which is the scene of oonfliot. Dar
ing the present war in Europe France has
been the chief sufferer apart from any con
sideration of national humiliation involved in
defeat. An immense portion of her territory
has been overrun by armies engaged in
deadly strife, and as an inevitable conse
quence of suoh a war her towns and villages
have been destroyed, her people driven from
their homes, her harvests trampled under
foot, and thousands of poor people who
found , it hard to live under
the best circumstances are now in
the bitter winter weather houseless,
homeless, and utterly without food or the
means c f obtaining it. The claims which the
people of France present under their present
circumstances to the sympathies of the world
are entirely apart from any politioal conside
rations, and it is the duty of people every
wheref bo matter what their opinions may be
in regard to the merits of either side of the
quarrel between France and Germany, to
take prompt action for the relief of those
whom the fortunes of war have reduoed to a
most pitiable condition.
The United States Government has pro
vided a vessel to transport to Franoe suoh
provisions as the people of the United States
may contribute, and action has been taken in
a number of our principal cities to supply her
with a cargo. It is to be hoped that in this
matter Philadelphia will sustain her ancient
reputation for philanthropy. A meeting wai
held at the Mayor's office yesterday to take
the subject into consideration, and his nonor
will to-day appoint a committee to receive
contributions and to superintend the trans
portation of them to their proper destination.
The call which this committee will make upon
the citizens of Philadelphia should receive, ai
it undoubtedly will, a prompt and generous
response. ..
The Frenoh Relief Committee of the New
York Ch ruber of Commerce has issued au
appeal to the clergy of the country, request
ing that a'collection Bhall !e wken up in all
the churches from one end of th land to the
other, on the aeoond Sunday in March, for the
benefit of the French sufferers. We hope
l- . '
tbat this suggestion will be adopted, ai a
large amount can be raised in this way, aad
it u ill afford an opportunity for those who
are uoable to give much to contribute their
mites. Many thousand dollars can be real
ized if every churoh-goer will give even so
small a sum as ten cents, and those who are
poor themselves should give this muoh for the
relief of the starving millions of Franoe.
This committee also makes the praotical
suggestion that as one-third of France has
been devastated, and not only i's harvest but
its seed-wheat consumed, the farmers of the
United States shall endeavor to send out seve
ral cargoes of seed-wheat to Franoe, to be
distributed among the small farmers. A few
bushels of wheat, which any farmer in this
land can easily spare, will do a vast amount
of good, and if all combine in the good work
a great and permanent benefit will be con
ferred. Many of the railroad companies have
offered free transportation for this wheat and
arrangements have been made for its storage
and transportation. England, Belgium, Hol
land, and Switzerland are all miking great
efforts to afford immediate relief to the
French sufferers, and the United States should
not be behind hand in such a noble work.
It is surmised, in some quarters, that
during the grand pow-wow which is about to
take plaoe at Washington between the Ame
rican and British treaty commissioners, the
project of settling up all old accounts by a
transfer of the New Dominion to the United
States will be secretly if not openly discussed.
The President is said to be a devout wor
shipper of the manifest-destiny doctrine, and
if his project for annexing Dominica is de
feated he may direct his attention to the
Northern frontier, with a prospeot of gob
bling up the Kanucks. As matters stand now
New England is disposed to growl at any new
accessions of Southern territory, bat if the
balance of power could be changed by the
acquisition of a huge slice of Northern terri
tory, she m'ghi change her notions about
annexation very quickly.
The magnificence of the diamond given a "
a Christmas present to William M. Tweed,
the king of the New York ring, was described
in an article recently published in The Tele
graph. Beautiful and expensive as this rich
gift is, we are surprised that his admirers did
not add to it many other gems of eves greater
value, and combine them together as a crown.
Since Tweed wields sovereign power, why
should he not wear its appropriate emblem?
He has erected on the ruins of Republican
freedom a kingdom of corruption and fraud,
and since his courtiers insist on compliment
ing him for his audacity, they should not rest
content with the gift of one paltry diamond,
when whole caskets of gems are bestowed
upon other enthroned oppressors.
1IIE STEVE S BATTERY.
The Marine Monster Nearly Ready for Sea
Description mf ike Vessel.
The Stevens gunboat, which has been so long
in building, and the success of w hich has been
60 doubted, is nearly completed, and will be
ready for launching in June at the farthest.
Most of the machinery is in position, and the
vessel will be completed during this and the next
month, with the exception of a portion of the
joiner's work. She has four engines, aggrega
ting 5000-horse power. These engines have
forty-five inch stroke and run two immense
propellers. The vessel is 410 feet in length, is
6000 tons burden, and draws 22 feet of water,
being only two feet above water-line. Ventila
tors are supplied, by which it is believed a
full supply of air can be furnished below decks.
She is built for a turret 38 feet in diameter, ana
is calculated to carry two of the heaviest 20
inch guns. Her armor will probably be of 2
inch wrought iron, bolted to a thickness of 10
inches. Her boilers are ten in number, and are
heated by thirty furnaces. Mr. Stevens, in his
will, bequeathed this immense concern to the
State of New Jersey. It is not known whether
the State can hold the bequest, but if it can
accept the bequest it will probably dispose of it
in some way. So tbat in any event the battery
will pass into the hands of our own or some
loreign government. It is not intended to arm
the vessel until after she shall have been finally
dlsDosed of in some way, since the purchasing
government will probably have some special in
structions regarding its armament.

Its Cure and its Picvenme.
The turf of the grave-yard covets the renlns of
many a human twin for whose death there was no
other reason than the neglect of known and lutil
pntably proven means of cure. Those near and de r
to family and friends are Bleeping the dreattless
Slumber Into which, had they calmly adopted
PR. JOSEPH H. PCHENCK.NS SIMPLE TREAT
MENT, Aad availed themselves of his wonderfully effioa
tlous medlclnep, they would not have fallen.
Pi. Schenck possesses t to rancn reverence for thfl
Omnipotent to Intimate that by his Instrumentality
those who are smitten by the Divine hand with ap
proaching death can be restored tt lire an 1 healtti
by any agency. But he does assert, and has In his
own case proved, that wherever sufficient vituny
remains, that vitality, by his medicines aid his di
rections for their use, Is quickened into healthful
vigor.
In this statement there is nothing presumptuous.
To the faith of the Invalid is made no representation
that Is not a thousand ttrass substantiated by living
and visible works. The theory of thseurehy Dr.
Schenck's medicine Is as simple as It la unfailing.
Its philosophy requires no argument. It is ssif-ai-surlng,
self-convincing.
The Feaweed Ton'c and Mandrake Pills are the
two first weapons with which the clta-kl of the ma
lady Is assailed. Ttvo-thlrds of the esses of cunt
sumption originate In dyspepsia and a functionally
disordered liver. With this condition the bronchial
tubes "sympathize" with the stomacl. They respond
to the morbific a ction ef the liver. Here then coma
the culminating result, and the setting In, with all
its distressing symptoms, of
CONSUMPTION.
The Mandrake Pills are composed of one of na
ture"! noblest gifts the Podophyllum Peltatum.
They possess all the blood-searchlug, alterative pro
perties of calomel, but un Ike calona!, they
"LEAVE NO SfINO BEHIND.'
The work of sure is now beginning. The vitiated
and mucous deposits In the bowels and in the ali
mentary canal are ejected. The liver, like a clock,
Is Is wound up. It arouses from Its torpidity. The
stomach acta respocslvely, and tho patient begin
to feel that he is getting at last
A SUPPLY OF GOOD BLOOD.
The Seaweed Tonic, in conjunction with the Pills,
permeates and assimilates wlththe food. Chyllld
cation is now progressing without 1U previous tor
tnres. Digestion becomes painless, and the cure Is
seen to be at hand. There Is no more n uuleoce, no
exacerbation of the stomach. An appetite sets In.
Now comes the Greatest Blood Purlder ever yet
given by an Indulgent father to suffering nun,
Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup comes In to perform its
functions, and to hasten and compl te the cure. It
enters at once upon its work. Nature cannot be
cheated. It collects and ripens the lmpulred and
diseased portions of the lung'. In the form of
gatherings It prepares them for expectoration, and,
)o! in a very short time the malady la vanquished,
the rotten throne that It occupied is renovated and
made rew, aad the patient In all the dignity of re
gained vigor, steps f.r i h to enjoy the manuood or
the womanhood i hat was ...
GIVEN UP AS LOST.
The despair o care after such ev.d. ncs r f its pos
sibility In re worst cases, and ir ore certainly la all
otht rs, is sinful, l'octor Schenck's persoHal state
ment to the faculty of his own cure was In these
words : .
'Mans years ago I was In the last stages or con
sumption, confined to my bed, and at one time my
physician thought I could not live a week ; then,
like a drowning man catching at straws, I heard of
and obtained the prepara lou which I now offer to
the public, and ttu-y made a perfect cure of me. It,
seemed to me that I could feel them penetrate my
whole system. They soon ripened the matter In
my lungs, and I would spit up more thai a pint of
offensive yellow matter every morning for a long
time.
'As soon as that began to subside, my cough,
fever, atn, and night sweats all begin to le ive me,
and my appetite became so great that It was with
dlfncol'y that I could keep from eating too much.
I soon gained my strength, and have grown la flesh
ever since.
'I was weighed shortly after my recovery," added
the doctor, "then tooling like a mere skeleton ; my
weight was but ninety-seven pound? ; my present
weight is two hundred and twenty-five (22,1) pounds,
and for years 1 have enjoyed uninterrupted health."
Dr. Pchenck has discontinued his professional
visits to New York and B iston, but at his office, No.
IS North Sixth street, between the hours of A. M.
and 3 P.M., he sees his patients every Saturday.
The directions for taking the me llclnei are
adapted to the Intelligence even of a chil l. Follow
these directions, and kind Nature will do the rest,
excepting that In some cases the Mandrake Pills are
to be taken In Increased doses ; the three medicines
need no other accompaniments than the ample in
structions that accompany them. First create ap
petite. Of returning health hunger la the most wel
come symptom. When It comes, as 1c will come, let
the despairing at once be of good cheer. O jod blood
at once follows, the cough loosens, the night sweat
is abated. In a short tune both these morold spinp
toms are gone loreve'.
Dr. Schenck's medicines are constantly kept la
tens of thousands of families. As a laxative or pur
gative the Mandrake Pint are a standard prepara
tion ; while the Pulmonic Syrup as a curer of o aghs
and eolds may be regarded as a prophylacterlo
against consumption In any of Its forms. lMp
