NEW APPLI CATION OF AN OLD FABLE. Thb only possible exouse for the creation of the proposed new commissions Is that Coun cils are sometimes dilatory in providing for municipal wants. It should be remembered, however, that they rarely fail to respond to &ny unequivocal manifestation of publio opinion, and even if they were as negligent and inefficient as some of the advooates of the commission wish the publio to consider them, it would be infinitely better to suffer Buch minor ills as flow from ineffloienoy than the destructive disasters that result from unbridled, irresponsible, and corrupt rule. This community cannot too carefully ponder the moral of the fable of King Log and King Stork. The frogs, impatient at the inactivity of King Log, who certainly did them no harm, and who at least afforded them a comfortable resting place, petitioned Jupiter for a change of ad ministrationfor a new monarch that would do grand things in their pond and display untiring energy. In response to their peti tion King Log was deposed and King Stork inaugurated in his stead. For a brief mo ment the frogs were delighted with the ohange; and as they surveyed the grand proportions of the stork, and contemplated his capaolty for aotivity, they rejoioed in the change. But, alas! the honors of inauguration day had scarcely been completed before King Stork commenced devouring his new sub jects. Ills activity was displayed solely in this fatal direction; and. though the frogs petitioned to Jupiter for a restoration of the old rule, he left them to suffer the consequences of their folly, and to choose between being gobbled up by their gormandizing monarch and emigration to more favored ponds where King Logs still iuled. In this old story Fhiladelphians may read their fate if the Legislature passes, and they submit to, the new commission bills. Their streets may be lined with rotten wooden pavements; land for new water works may be taken up at any.point between the Delaware and Lake Erie; new police stations may be built on every street corner, and the city may bris tle with pompous, well-fed, well-paid, grasp ing, grabbing, and greedy jacks-in-office; but the tax-payer, who pays for all this folly, the house-renter who repays with compound interest the tax exacted from the landlord, and the workingman whose labor forms the foundation of all wealth, must be doomed to hopeless and incessant toil that will make life burdensome, so that gangs of brazen robbers may be enriched at their expense. In the presence of a danger like this it behooves all honest men in the community to unite heartily in the movement started by the Mayor and Councils for self-protection against their legislative foes. If these men must be bought to do their duty, in God's name let them fix their prioe, and let it be paid by a direct ' appropriation from the city treasury, rather than that they Bhould Bell for a few base coins prioeless liberties which tens of millions cannot redeem. If they are determined to barter away the city, let them grant the small boon of an open auction, so that three-quarters of a million of people may see, face to face, the sinister features of the private bidders against their rights, and learn, dollar for dollar and cent for cent, how much the whining syco phants who beg for the suffrages of Philadelphia have the hardi hood to demand for abstaining from the perpetration of a gigantic political wrong. It is pitiable, oh, fearfully pitiable ! that the in donation of this community is voiceless in the legislative chambers, that schemes are conoocted and promoted there which are manifestly aimed against her welfare without a word in her behalf being uttered, without one champion rising to defend her. The murderer calls to his aid trained advooates, the criminals of every grade employ high legal talent to defend them; but in the great Court of the Commonwealth, held in the Capitol building, a whole city full of people are at this moment threatened with the most terrible of political dangers, and yet they laok an advocate, and ' it is rumored that a majority of the tribunal which is to decide upon their destinies have been influenced by corrupt means to pass judgment against them. In such' an ex traordinary dilemma it is difficult to decide what practical course 1b best to pursue, but, aa a Btarting-point, there can be no question of the propriety of making such a manifestation of public opinion as will leave on the legisla tive mind (bo far as such a thing may be pre sumed to exist) no doubt of the intense aver sion of just citizen of all parties to the pro posed commissions. If this fails, it becomes a practical question whether an appeal to the legislative pocket should not be made. In self-defense the city may be forced to outbid the sordid hucksters who are on thi i oint of buying, for thirty pieces of silver, what it Will cost Philadelphia tax payers millions to redeem. It is terrible to be the slaves of the miscreants of the capital, but, if no other course is open, let them be impVred to nam the price of our thraldom, to declare the sum they requre for being honest, to tell three quarters of a million of people, ai frankly as they tell the sohemers and lobbyists who ordinarily buy their votes, whether tens, hundreds, or thousands of dollars are the ruling prices of legislation. Since they are dead to shame, let them mark their figures on their foreheads, and let every Philadelphia member who, with his figure thus marked, parades the streets in whioh his constituents reside, receive from the City Treasury openly and publicly the price he demands. Even this species of rascality would be a thousand times less oriir'nal than the course whioh some legislators have favored. They had far better sell our liberties baok to ourselves than to taskmasters who will oppress us beyond endurance. If a sale must be made, and legislation is exclusively a marketable com modity, let us insist upon the poor privilege of becoming preferred purchasers of our own rights from the miserable miscreants whom, in an unfortunate and misguided moment, we have been weak and foolish enough to arm with legislative powers. THE PUBLIC BUILDINGS. UroN our third page will be found the ma jority report of the Committee on Plans of the Publio Buildings Commission, which we hope will receive the attention from our readers that it deserves, as a clear, concise, and unanswerable statement of facts and figures, and a conclusive reply to the loud voiced protests and loose accusations of the anti-Penn Squareites. This report reviews the whole publio buildings controversy, and shows that from first to last the commission have acted with perfect good faith to the publio, and that they have earnestly endea vored to perform the important duty commit ted to their charge in such a manner as will best subserve the publio interests. This re port reviews the circumstances under which the vote of last Octo ber was taken, and no impartial person who reads its simple statement of well-known facts can doubt that the commis sion is now endeavoring to carry out the expressed will of the people. The report truly says that a protest from certain property-holders upon Market or Broad street against the plan for placing the publio build ings upon the intersection ought to have no weight whatever with the commissioners, in view of the emphatio verdist of property holders and tax-payers in all seotions of the city which was given last October. There is one point made in the report that is particu larly worthy of consideration in view of the clamor which was first made against the selec tion of the Penn Square site, and which is now being made against the intersection scheme, with the idea that, ultimately, the whole project for placing the publio buildings there may possibly be abandoned. The report says: "After various schemes and attempts for many years to secure the desired object, which had been defeated from one cause or another, principally, however, from the clashing of conflicting interests, not controlled by a deBire for the general good of the publio, the Legislature took the matter in hand and imposed upon the present com mission the duty of erecting publio buildings upon whichever one oi the two designated sites Bhould be fixed by a vote of the people." The clamor against the Penn Square site was raised entirely by interested parties, and was entirely irrespective of the publio conveni ence, and the same persons are now endeavor ing to prevent the plans of the commissioners from being carried out, because they imagine that their individual interests will suffer. The report explains very fully the advan tages, both artistia and economical, of one building over four, and sums up the matter thus: "The commission was satisfied, after a full and deliberate consideration of the whole subject, that the necessary accommodations could be better secured, with a xaore conve nient and economical distribution of space, by one large building at the intersection than by four separate buildings upon the several unequal plots as they stood at the time the act of the Legislature was passed. The very object sought to be obtained by concentra tion of all the publio offices, courts, and municipal departments would be practically nullified by the erectien of four distinct buildings, separated by streets of over one hundred feet in width." "One building could be better, more conveniently and economically lighted and ventilated than four separate ones, while the one courtyard in the centre would allow of the court-rooms, for which quiet is essential, being entirely removed from the noise of the streets." It is impossible for the anti-Penn Square party to conceal the real motives which actuate them in their present efforts to embarrass the commissioners, and the general publio should bear in mind always that all the agita tion is caused by a ring of property-holders who, for their individual profit, are deter mined to leave nothing undone to keep the publio offices and courts in their present location.

Schenck, Philadelphia: Dear Sir: I have Intended for a long time writing you In relation to my case. I had been suffering sometime with all the symptoms of consumption. Physicians of Brooklyn recommended cod liver oil and Bourbon whisky. I procured a bottle of cod liver oil, but It gave roe no relief. I also was ad vised a change of climate, but, being upwards of sixty years old, and never having tasted whisky, I declined doing so, or to change my residence. A friend, without consulting me, sent me a bottle of your Pulmonic Syiup, and, after reading the di rections on the wrappers, I concluded to try your Mandrake Pills, In connection with the Syrup. In two months my cough had nearly disappeared, and lnf our months I was again fully restored to health. I am perfectly satisfied that your medicines saved my life, and cheerfully advise all who are suffering with any pulmonary complaint to use your medi cines, as they are sure to relieve, and, in most cases, effect a permanent cure.
