THE DAILF EVENINO TELEGRAPH -PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, MARCH 9, 1871 2 or in 17 or xnn rnsss. Editorial Opinion of the Leading Journal! upon Current Toplos Compiled Every Day for the Evening Telegraph, TREASURY LEAKS. From the Ar. Y, Tribune. Ihere are good, honest people who wonder why bo much ado ia made about a certain ex penditure. "It ia ODly $"i)00" (or $50,000, or $100,000, as the case may be), they inno cently remark; .and they cannot see why so b nail a Bum should excite so great a clamor. The reason is not ho much that this sum has gone, but that so many other nam1) are sure to go after it sucked down by the mrelstrom caused by the disappearance of this. Natu ralists, given a small bone, will reooustrnot therefrom some gignntio beast of a long-past era; and Treasury, leeches, given a presi dent, will empty a sub-treasury mo9t expedi tiously. The National Republican thus dilates on the failure of Congress to appropriate money wherewith to enlarge the grounds which sur roundand setoff the Capitol: The extension of the Capitol grounds ought to have commended Itself quite as much to members of UoDgress, who are never tired of admiring the Capitol building, as to the people of Washington. Every one will concede that the present surround. IngB of this, tne most beautiful and imposing struc ture In the world, are not In harmony as a setting for such a gem of architecture. The Araerloau people are nut so entirely wanting In taste and rplrit as to stop short, after an expenditure of $12,000,000 oa their greatest and proudest public edifice, to connt the trifling expense of placing It In fitting frame. As far as the park Is concerned, the sum of $100,000 seems to us, In view of the fact that this is the capital of the richest nation on the globe, a very small amount to make so muoh bones about." Here, yon see, the fact that $12,000,000 have been lavished on the Capitol is urged as a reason, not for frugality in any quarter, bat for spending more in the purchase and fitting np extensive grounds and fitting up of extensive grounds adjacent thereto. Then Washington wants a Park, and remembers that this is "the richest nation on the globe." and so ought to be ashamed of not paying $100,000 towards suoh Park, well knowing that millions must follow. It does not ooour to the Federal City that people who are heavily taxed for Parks in their own cities, or obliged to go without, should object to being further taxed to make a park wbereby the value of Washington lots and houses shall be enhanced at the national cost. Perhaps we are a rich nation. We cer tainly have a debt that would ill beoome a poor one. But we are not so rioh that our taxes do not gall us; and, when we have paid for laying out, Be we ring, grading, paving, lighting, etc etc., our own streets, we can not see why we should be taxed again to ren - der the same good service to the streets of another city and the homes of her people, No, we don't see it. PHILADELPHIA'S WAY TO COMMERCE. From the Wilmington Del.) Commercial. As a manufacturing city Philadelphia is already great, but 'vher press and people long also lor commercial greatness. Tnis desire, we believe, may be gratified, and never was there a time more auspicious for successful effort in this direction than the present. Her great rival, New York, is almost throttled by tne mugs wno control ner municipal govern tnent; her business is crippled with laok of publio confidence in her commercial honor, caused by the insolent disturbance of her money market by speculative gamblers and financial charlatans; while her carrying trade, to and from tne west, lias come to be con sidered the legitimate spoil of warring rail road and canal rings. Philadelphia s commercial honor, on the other hand, is beyond reproach; her financiers are men of national reputation and known integrity, wnile her Western carrying trade is in the hands of a giant corporation, which fouls not its hands with speculating in its own Btooks, but oonfines itself to its legitimate business and brings to the prosecution of that business a far-reaching, comprehensive saga city which pours tne tramo of naif a conti sent over its rails. - ' But to be a great commercial city, Philadel phia must nave foreign trade. Here New York has the Inside traok, and believes she can keep it forever. Why ? Because New York has a good harbor, accessible at all sea sons of the year, and Philadelphia has not ! Pbiladelphians, as a rule, either fly into ' a passion and indignantly deny tms fact, or quietly itraore it, in disoussing the question of their commercial future. This is not the part of wisdom. There is no commercial future for them until they look this appa rently disagreeable fact squarely in the face, and shape their policy accordingly. Thev must strip themselves of the narrowness and provincialism with whioh they have too justly been reproached, and extend at onoe their ideas and their sphere of action. They must regard tne Delaware river as a whole, and utilize whatever portion of its magnifi cent harbor is best adapted for commerce, whether that portion lie within or without their present municipal limits. We know that such a policy would be at onoe denounced by many as building up other places with Philadelphia capital without any return to that city, but a little reflection will convince any thinking person that this would not he true. Philadelphia can, if she chooses, forever remain the oentre of the trade and commerce of the whole Delaware river region, not on aooount of her looation for that is probably a mistake out because she has the start, and has the capital to main- tain that advantage, (situation is important, -without doubt, but New York's fine harbor did not alone make her the commercial metropo lis of the Republic; Norfolk has as good a harbor, and yet she languishes, and Beaufort has a better, it is said, and is little more than a village. New York by canals first, and railroads afterwards, made her harbor the point where the products of the interior most readily met the commerce of the ocean, and became at once the first of American citizens. The other places as well situated had not the energy or the capi tal necessary to accomplish this, and their greatness is a thing too far in the future to be even a matter of interesting speculation A . m . A A A - 10 tne people oi tuis generation. Philadelphia had, however, the energy and tne capital to establish as great avenues to the trade of the interior as did New York, and she did It. Her mistake was that Bhe failed to make this inland traffio meet her ooean commeroe at the most accessible point. and her commerce died. When she has the courage and the wisdom to correct her mis take that commerce will revive. All things, at present, combine to give her a magnificent opportunity, and her action in this steamship project will show whether or not she has gained the wisdom to achieve greatness. If she subscribes liberally, if she builds her ships in whatever American 'yards they can be built best ana cheapest, with Pennsylvania's own iron, and if, when her own harbor is ice locked, she runs them to another, always easily kept free, and many miles nearer thes ea, she will take the first and decisive step toward making herself the Greatest, as well as the most distinctively American, of Amerioan cities. GREAT AND LITTLE CORPORATIONS. From the N. Y. World. When Mr. Lemuel Gulliver took his after noon nap he found himself on waking tied - - ... 1 n i band and foot, and aitnougu eaon niament was very tiny they sufficed to bind him to the ground, or at least compelled him to struggle to get free. Such just now seems to be, thoueh in varying forms, the awakening of Pennsylvania and Virginia the one a vigor ous, well-fed, plethoric giant, gorged with Bhoddy; the other an invalid, with blood en feebled and vigor tern my abated. Uovernor Geary starts from his Biumberswith an ac tual shriek. It seems that inr those years of placid enjoyment which, since the day when, made bankrupt by a great cor poration which she nursed, she re fused to pay her interest, have rolled over Pennsylvania, there has been growing up within her borders a crop of bodies poll- tio which, with specious promises to the State of taxes on dividends, and to the citizen of development of resources and faoility of transit, have step by step been appropriat ing to themselves vast and dangerous Eowers. This ranK and poisonous growth as of course been stimulated by the hot com post which protection has heaped about its roots, until at last the combined powers of production and corporate privilege overbear political independence, and the State finds itself helpless at their feet. This, according to the fact as well as Governor Geary's frantic utterances, is exactly the state of things at this moment in eastern rennsyi vania; and the very sensible though comically lawyer-like letter of his Attorney-General reveals the legislative and judicial contri vances by which, year after year, this has come to pass. When the legislature limits the tolls the companies get up a little conve nient litigation, and the judioiary, in its simplicity, decides that "toll" does not mean "freight;" and so when the time comes, as now, that produoing and transit corporations find it to their advantage to combine to crush the industrial interest pro per, their powers to do so are found to be illimitable, and the Governor and the Legisla ture are helpless, lhis is one of the corpora tion crises which threaten Pennsylvania. Its sources are the companies operating in the eastern part of the Commonwealth, and mainly those leading to and from the anthra cite regions watered by the bchuylkill and the Lehigh. Their power of mischief is not di minished by the concession that they are in the main solvent corporations the capital in one instance cnieny owned abroad. But the stertorous slumber of Pennsylvania betrays a heavier nightmare than this. There is a corporation whioh, unlike the Readme and the Lehigh,entitles, "bestrides no narrow world," but stands over the citizens of a once free commonwealth literally "Like a colossus ; and they, petty men, walk under Its huge legs, and peep about To find themselvesdishonorable graves." Such is that giant corporation as to which we have more than once uttered words of warning, and as to which Pennsylvania dares not speak. We have said why we are re motely interested, and shall not repeat it. It owns the Legislature, be its politics what it may. If it needs statutory help, it issues an order and is at once obeyed. If it does not suit its convenience to have these amen datory statutes published in the body of the publio laws, they are hidden in an appendix. It has the absolute control of Senators at Washington; and we have at this moment the indecent speotaole of a bill pressed through Congress at the bidding of this corporation to build a bridge across the great river at Cincinnati which the whole Ohio delegation tell us will be fatal to the interests of naviga tion. Thus conscious of power and thus un checked, it too, li&e the pigmy coal compa nies, taxes the tone or defiance, and this too in a way which gives the action an interest of a very wide scope indeed. No one will deny that the maintenance of the publio faith of Pennsylvania its bonds scattered every where is matter of general interest. Thus is it affected. We are not of those who believe in the magio of sinking funds, or indeed in sinking funds at all. Bad as is Mr. isoutweU s policy, it is better than the mockery of a fund to be made available by and by, and in the mean time to be subject to all manner of risks; but all will agree that if there be a sinking f and it ought not to be sported with. Years ago Pennsylvania created a sinking fund, which now, as near as we understand it, amounts to about $0,500,000, and was supposed to be invested in safe and available securi ties. Governor Geary, so believing, re- oommended its realization and a propor tionate debt liquidation. But lo! when it comes to be examined (and this we derive from the report of a committee of the Legis lature) it turns out, if not a mere myth whioh we are far from asserting yet a most unavailable and lnseoure dependence. "Bri areus" has m'ade "ducks and drakes" of it, The Pennsylvania Railroad Company years ago bought the puoiio woras or Pennsylvania, and paid for them in its own or other first mortgage bonds, in the lapse of time it suited them to make a different arrangement, and the rescript was issued, and an act in March, 18G1, passed, by which the bonds were merged into some sort of a oontraot by which the principal debt was turned into a collateral; and now, when the Governor wants to sell, he finds his stocks on hand unmarketable, and the actual debtor to the State the purchaser for nothing of the publio works master of the position. Now, we are by no means prepared to say that Governor Geary's policy of sale is the wisest, bet it is very far beyond our nnite compre hension that it should be frustrated by the discovery of the utter unavailability of his assets, and this through the agenoy and secret manipulations of a creature of the law. When Mr. Attorney-General Brewster comes to ex amine these statutes (if he is ever allowed to see them) he will find a more desperate state of things than among the coal companies This, then, is the great corporation whioh, governing Pennsylvania, is intriguing in New Jersey whose integrity has thus far proved steady and boldly invading Virginia. The state of things in Virginia, as represented to us on all sides, is simply deplorable TnE DUTY OP PRESIDENT GRANT. From the K. Y.Sun. While it is but rife tit and just that great forbearance and charity should be shown in our treatment of those Indian tribes that are disposed to cultivate amicable relations with us, especially as some of them have un doubtedly suffered grievous wrongs at our hands, there are other tribes that deserel no such consideration. We mean those that, without provocation, have always beea the ur relenting enemies of the whole white race, and have never omitted an opportunity to practice infernal tortures and cruelties upon those of our countrymen and countrywomen who nave had the misfortune to fall into their bands. Conspicuous among these cruel and im placable savages are the Apaohes, a tribe that may be justly termed the Ishmaelites of America, since they are as deadly foes of the friendly tribes of Indians as they are of the whites themselves, inese wretches nave, within the last month or two, overrun most of the civilized part of Arizona, not only committing depredations, but the most frightful murders and atrocities upon settlers in places that have been considered safe for years; and they have been allowed to perpe trate, these outrages comparatively un checked. For such inhuman monsters as the Apaches there should be no mercy. They should be utterly exterminated from the face of the earth if they cannot be overoome in any better way It will be well for President Grant since Congress will not allow Arizona to be aban doned to the savages to take immediate measures to afford the pioneers of civilization tbere adequate protection. The people may be bumbupged by a policy whioh, by giving to philanthropists prominent places in con nection with Indian affairs without corres ponding authority, has served as a cloak for the most scandalous frauds upon the Indians and upon the tax-payers of the country; but such a policy, whether real or only pretended, will not meet the requirements of this emer gency, u the President has the power to ' send a fleet of war vessels, in the interest of ring of speculators, to overawe a people with whom we are supposed to sustain friendly relations, he can surely order two or three regiments of cavalry to Arizona, in addition to the troops now there, to protect the settlers from the ravages of an enemy as brutal as the fiercest beasts of prey and more relentless. SHALL CUBA BE DESTROYED? From the S. T. Sun. Notwithstanding the assertion so persist ently disseminated by the Spanish officials in Cuba that the revolution is on its last legs, a few facts which these same officials have of late carelessly permitted to reach the outer world, through their own organs, completely disprove all their former statements. The celebrated battle which General Jordan won over the Spaniards in Camaguey on New Year's day a year ago has been cast into the shade by more than one recent conflict. More numerous bodies of armed men have beeu engaged on either side; and the acknowledged lof s of the Spanish forces, 1G0 in one fight, is far greater than any they ever confessed before. The war therefore is progressing, and the executions on both sides prove that it has lost nothing of that ferocious character which more than once since its commence ment has caused the civilized world to shud der, and excited discussion in various legisla tive assemblies. Some time since President Grant in a mes sage to Congress described this war as an "exterminating one; and inasmuch as the shooting of prisoners seems to be general, the term is not misapplied. Apart from the fearful sacrifice of human life, to which there is no conceivable limit short of the extermi nation of the combatants on one or the other Bide, the advancing devastation of what was lately one of the most productive of cultivated countries is exciting , considerable alarm among other nations. The Span iards burn and destroy every village or assem blage of huts or clearing from which they drive the Cubans, trusting that the impossi bility of obtaining the neoessaries of life may induce them to surrender; while the Cubans publicly proolaim that they expeot to win their independence as much by the torch as by the sword. It is, they say, only by means of the productions of the soil of Cuba that Spain is enabled to war against its sons. When the war broke out (Juba was pro ducing, with a population of something less than two millions of people, the value of about two hundred and fifty million dollars a year. The industries of which this enormous sum was the produot were about equally divided between the cities and the country, that is to say, between manufacturing and sericulture. Of the thirty million acres which Cuba contains, only some two and a half millions are devoted to sugar cane, to bacco, coffee, and other exportable crops; the remainder consists of pasturage and forests. Of course, the war has greatly diminished the produce of Cuba, and as the island for merly furnished about half of all the sugar made on the globe, it is patent that its value to the outside world has greatly decreased: while it is self-evident that if the war be not stopped, or its character mitigated, the island will ere long be converted into a desert. This war has now been waged for nearly thirty months. How long is Christian civili zation to stand coldly by and passively auet it r International law and publio opinion foroed England, Iranoe, and Russia to interfere in favor of the independence of Greeoe. What was the duty of the civilized cations of En rope in 1827 in regard to Greece is manifestly the duty of America and Americans to-day in regard to Cuba. Let those politicians, pa triots, and pseudo-philanthropists who object to intervention in Cuba on the plea of "manifest destiny," take warning from the condition of devastated and depopulated San Uomingo. binoe emancipation, tropioal agrl cultural products and the means of their pro duction should be very carefully dealt with. If we wait a little longer, the Cuban pear will be not ripe but rotten when it falls. PREPARATIONS FOR THE PRESIDEN TIAL ELECTION. From the K. Y, Timet, While Republicans are satisfying them selves that there is no need to talk about the Presidential election just yet, the Demoorats, with their usual activity, are leaving no scone unturned to render their preparations for the contest perfect in all directions. Kotmng, of course, could euit their plans better than the present attitude of the Republican party, The issue of Free Trade vs. Protection is arraying one section of the party against the other: personal grievances here and mere are elevated into national importance; and in the "Empire State the pros pect is particularly encouraging for the Democrats, because they have large number of leading Republicans in their employment, and can safely reckon on receiv ing their very bebt services. It is always an advantage to have Boies in the camp of the enemy. There is probably no Democrat ex tant who has the least doubt about which way New York will co in the Presidential election. What they cannot get by their own strength they expect to gain through the feuds of their adversaries. The South, it is confidently anticipated. ill go bodily for Tammany, ana money wu be freely poured into that quarter as soon as the signal is given from headquarters Active exertions are already being made in the West, and several new journals have been started for the purpose of getting the exalted truth into the minds of the people that John T. Hoffman is the only man who can really save the country. The tax-payers of New York kindly provide the money for this great missionary enterprise. No one supposes that the money raised here is devoted to the service of the publio if it were, we should not be able to boast of having the worst paved and the worst lit streets in the civilized world. Some of this money goes to enrich ex-bankrupt chair makers and adventurers from "ould Ire land," and a part of it is prudently devoted to the consolidation of the new power whioh has been built up among us during the last few years. No one can fail to see that it would be a capital investment for the Demo crats to spend a few millions in winning the next contest for the Presidency. With Hoff man in the White House, it is very difnouU to say what might cot be done for the eleva tion of mankind. The system under whioh New York is governed, and which gives so much satisfaction to the Evening Post and many respectable citizens, might then be ap plied to the cation at large, and the blessings of free government be for the first time enjoyed, and the regeneration of the speoies finally acsomplished. Where there are now two or three corrupt judges there might be soon two or threescore, and a state of things would arise to whioh the annals of Rome in its later days would afford no parallel. This is naturally an inspiring tbeught for any true Democrat, aa Democrats go nowadays, and we cannot wonder that the party is extremely well pleased to see itepub- licans saying with Dr. Watts' sluggard, "You have woke me too soon, let me slumber again. under our new patron saint, the blessed Saint Patrick himself (whose life has been most obligingly forwarded to our offioe, as one step toward converting the heathen), we may confidently look for an era of which George Washington and other old-fashioned patriots never dreamed. In the meantime, however, we hoDO there are some people here and there who will keep their attention fixed on what 4s going on ia several parts of the country. As Democratio principles once more gain ascendancy in the South, the spirit of lool is reviving. Ttro nearer the Democrats approach to power the more is the South disposed to shake off the iceubus which the war left upon it. Let Hoff man be eleoted, and the work of Union men will be undone as fast as local ciroumstanoes will permit. There is not much excuse for our deceiving ourselves on this score. "The war is cot over, cried the Kebels and their sym- Dftthizers in 1865. and we mav be crettv sure i : ' . they meant what they said. They are already giving us a taste of what we may expect when Republican apathy and Republican quarrels have allowed Hoffman to slip into the President's chair. In our opinion, the country needs the Republican party now as much as it did during the years of the war. but we are aware that this opinion is not snared by many Republican leaders. It is a suicidal policy for Republicans to go on 1,aa1'1m a.aIi aIV.V mliVi tl ni I. tWTT WAanAUd uhumuk cauu uiuoi wiiu iuou unu hvbuuuui but then it happens to be the policy much in vogue just now, and of course the Demo crats are very eager to pat the combatants on the back. There are many Republicans to-day who would prefer the Demoorats and free trade to their own party and protection. There are others who think that the whole duty of man in the present year of grace fs to keep up a constant nagging at President Grant. It is all very hne to say that the "heart" of the country is "sound," but great causes have ere now been entirely ruined by a much smaller degree of carelessness and indifference to publio questions than we now find prevailing. If Senator Sumner would give us his views on this subject, he might do greater service, and act more in accord ance with the high reputation whioh he en joys, than by concentrating all his thoughts on Ban Domingo.
