MAT 3, 1871. tr Thh Eykhino Tblhobiph, from Its original establishment, baa been In the reoelpt of telegra phies news from the New York Associated Press, Which consists of the Tribune, Timet, Herald, World, Sun, Journal of Commerce, Eoening Pott, Commercial Advertiser, and Evening Express. The Guccess which has attended oar enterprise Is, In Itself, a sufficient evidence of the freshness, full ness, and reliability of the Hews which we have received from this source. In March, 1370, we entered into a special coitract by which Tns Evening Tbleqbaph has the exclusive use of the news furnished In the afternoon by the Associated Press to Its own members, the North American, In quirer, Ledger, Press, Age, Record, and German Demo crat, of this city, and the leading journals of the East, N orta. West, and Bouth ; and hereafter Thb Tblb GBirn will be the only evening paper published in this tity in which the afternoon despatches of the Asso ciated Press will appear. The earliest regular edition of the Thb Eybnino Telegraph goes to press at ljtf o'olock, and the subsequent regular editions at SX, 8y, and i. Whenever there Is Important news of the com plications in Europe, extra editions will be issued after this hour, and before the regular time for the early edition. TUE PUBLIC BUILDINGS. Thb anti-Fenn Squareites have not aa yet made any great amount of headway in the Legislature with their projects to defeat the will of the people of this city, aa plainly ex pressed at the election of last October. Both on Monday and yesterday bills to abolish the commission, or to alter ita complexion, were proposed, and we have no doubt that they will be defeated if they are brought to a final vote. Mr. Deohert on Monday urged aa a reason for the passage of his bill to abolish the Building Commission that 30,000 peti tioners had asked for it. This would have perhaps been a ytrj good reaaon had not the citizens of Philadelphia expressed their opinion already- in a ranch better way than is possible by petition. The Washington Square site obtained 32,835 votes last October, and these votes were given by citizens who had a right to say where they preferred to have the pnblio buildings located. On the other hand, 51,G25 voters declared in favor of Penn Square, and in common honesty and decency the wishes of the majority should have been respected and all further contro versy avoided. The Washington Square party, however, determined to carry its point by fair means or foul, and nothing has been left nndone to render the popular decision of last October void. Until it is able, how ever, to present some stronger arguments than it has yet done, it is entitled to no consideration whatever at the hancU of the Legislature, and it will be a gross outrage upon the citizens of Philadelphia if by any legislative act the whole publio buildings con troversy is reopened, and we are put back to where we stood a year ago. The petition Bow before the Legislature, and whioh Mr, Dechert nsea aa his most potent ar gum en t for the abolition of the Building Commission, has been signed by no one knows who. The signatures of men, women, and children and Jerseymen are ap pended to it, and the number of duplicates and manufactured names it would puzzle the getters-up of the dooument themselves - to find out. With all their opportunities for eending a practically unlimited list of nmes to Harriuburg the anti-Penn Squareites have only been able to attach 30,000 to their peti tion, whereas they were able to muster 32,825 votes at the October eleotion. It needs no argument, therefore, to show that a vast majority, if not all, of the genuine signatures to the petition are those of persona who voted for the Washington Square site, and who are endeavoring for their own selfish purposes to defeat the wwb.es of a vast majority of their fellow-citizens. The members of the Legisla ture who may be disposed to think that they will be able to make seme some political capi tal by abolishing the Building Cominison would do well to ponder this fast. and to consider whether it will pay to do the bidding of a faction of interested property- holders in opposition to tne plainly-expressed desires of the mass of the people of Phila delphia. Among the newspapers of this city the opposition to the Building Commission and the Penn Square aite is confined to one or two journals whose offloes are in the neigh borhood of Sixth and Chesnut streets, and whose opinions with regard to the merits and demerits of the Penn Square site and the plans of the Building Commissioners are con Bequently of little value. There is more legiti mate business now before the Legislature than is likely to be attended to properly before adjournment, and the best thing the mem bers of both houses can do is to let the Phila delphia pubjio buildings severely alone in the future, and to permit the oouimisbiouers t j carry out their plana without interference. A MODEL POLICE LIEUTENANT. Victob HtToohaa drawn, In "Les Miserable," a yivid picture of the unrelenting polioe agenl of Franca. Yaljean, who neyer, in roalitj, committed a serious offense, bat who, after being arrested on a petty charge, managed to escape from the officers of the law, is persecnted throughont a long life (during a large portion of whioh ne was not only an honest but an exceedingly industri ous and useful citizen) by an un relenting policeman named Javert. In vain did Valjean assume new dia- guises, and establish manufactures that gave employment to thousands of workmen. In vain did he beoome one of the most thor oughly virtuous, respeo table, and reputable members of society. Javert had marked him as a fugitive from justice, and no matter how trivial was the offense originally imputed, nor how thoroughly irreproaohable waa the subsequent life of Valjean, the bloodhounds of the French system considered it a sacred duty to hunt down the man who had eluded unmerited punishment. We order these things differently in the United States, and it is wel enough that relentless ferocity forms no part of our system. It is true that a polioeman is commonly supposed, even in this country, to have a slight perception of what crime is when he sees it, and a faint instinct prompting him to assist in the arrest and punishment of notorious criminals; but if the true model policeman is to.be sought in the complete counterpart of Javert, Philadelphia can justly claim that treasure in the person of Lieutenant Michael Haggerty, the officer in charge of one of the most important polioe districts of this city. The public has read, time and again, in crimimal proceedings, of Thomas Holland, the proprietor of a den on Front street, near Walnut. Yesterday he waa ar raigned on the charge of keeping a disorderly house, and a number of witnesses substan tiated this charge. One man who had boarded there testified that it was a bawdy-house, that it was frequented by thieves, and that rob beries had repeatedly been perpetrated there; another swore that it waa the resort of thieves and bad characters, and that there were fre quent disturbances; a woman declared that she had been drugged in this establishment; a detective said that "it is a very bad place.'' and that he had not only seen diaorder there but that its residents were generally thieves and prostitutes, while another detec tive stated that he had always known the house aa a resort for thieves. Against this cloud of testimony the defense produced, first, the barkeeper, who declared that he had never observed any disorder at the house, and second, Lieutenant Michael Haggerty, the polioe lieutenant of the district, who stated that he had occasion to pass up and down Front street frequently, but had never Been any disorder at any time! Thua the man who, above all others, should have been espe cially active in bringing Holland to justice, waa the principal witness for the defense. Instead of displaying the persecuting spirit of Javert, Haggerty was the next best friend of the virtuous Holland; and if the jury and judge had agreed with the lieutenant of the district, the proprietor of the Pittsburg House would still be a free man, instead of being under sentence of a fine of $1000 and an imprison ment of two years in the County Trison. Haggerty evidently belongs to the philan thropic school of policemen, and in disorderly house casea he may be warranted to have not a speck of the Javert taint in his compo sition. THE FINE ARTS. The Park Museum Project. A number of circumstances have contributed to excite considerable public Interest In the project for an art gallery and museum In the park, and some of our contemporaries have made rather enthusiastic utterances on the subject, without perhaps giving due weight to all the disadvantages of locating such an Institution at a point so remote from the heart of the city. As the scheme for adding to the attrac tions of the park by the establishment of a great public art gallery there has many engaging features, It Is likely to captivate the popular mlud, and It will probably be comparatively easy to execute ; but as there are Borne serious if not fatal objections to It, the subject should be discussed from all points of view and Its merits and demerits fairly presented. We propose, therefore, to state as briefly as possible what the advantages and disadvantages of an art museum building in the park will be. The im portance of having an art Institution of some kind in this city is admitted by all Intelligent persons that have given the matter any consideration, and It was hoped when the Academy of Fine Arts removed from Its old building on Chesnut street, below Eleventh, that it was about to enter upon a new and enlarged career of usefulness. These hopes have been doomed to disappointment, and the last state o the Academy appears to be worse than the first, and Its affairs are in such a hopeless muddle that the difficulties In the way of afresh start are suffi cient to discourage the best friends of the Institu tion. Now, however, comes the proposition to start an entirely new Institution In the park, and It Is pre sented In such a shape that It is almost certain to obtain a large amount of publio favor if it is urged with any degree of enthusiasm ; and as the Academy does not seem to care to make aoy decided effort to obtain the effective support of the public, the publio may start an art institution of Its own without regard to the Academy. An abundance of ground for future as well as for pre sent purposes can be obtained for nothing in the park, and all the money that can be raised either by private subscription or appropriations from the pub lic treasury will therefore go to the erection of a building and the purchase of works of art to place in it. A comparatively Inexpensive, and, at the same time, elegant building, which will be perfectly adapted for exhibiting pictures, statues, and other art works to the best advantage, will be a flue addi tion to the park, especially if it is turrounded by terraces, decorated with statues, fountains, and vases, and all its external accessories indicating its artistic character. Such a building would be a delightful place of resort for the thousands of visi tors who frequent the park during the warm season; and lr a really worthy collection is obtained, it will do much to advance art oulture and to educate the taate of the general public. All the ground, and vastly more than is neces sary, being obtainable In the pirk for nothing, an exceedingly Important item of expense is dou away with at once, and such a building as it would be practically impossible to erect in the heart oi the city can be put up at a moderate cost, and upon a plan that wilt perfectly fulfil the best Ideal of a public art gallery. These points In favor of the Park Museum project are of great Importance, but the lact that during six months in the year the park is scarcely visited at all, and that practically the galleries will be Inaccessible to a vast majority of the people of the city, Is a very serious objection that siieuld not be lightly considered. At an time It will be a considerable Journey to reach the Tart Museum, whereas an art Institution Bhonld, If pos sible, be located where It can readily be reached by all classes at all times. Cut in the winter, whin onr own people are at heme, when the city Is full of strangers, It Is of especial consequence that such a valuable addition to our places of public resort as an art gallery wonld be should be prominently located upon one of our most prominent thoroughfares, and not out in the country. The lot of ground purchased by the Academy of Fine Arta at the corner of Broad and Cherry streets Is an excellent site, and if It were possible to establish a first-class art Institution there It would certain ly be expedient to abandon the park project altogether. Another very serious ob jection to the Park Museum is that It would be Impossible to successfully carry on a system of art Instruction In connection with it, and Philadelphia, as the greatest manufacturing city of the Union, needs a school where by means of a thorough system of art education a race of artistic de signers can be trained even more she than does a collection of pictures and statuary for the delectation of her people. This, however, Is a subject of too much Importance to be discussed at the end of an article of this kind, and its consideration Is therefore reserved for a future occasion, when we shall endeavor to show what the Academy of Pine Arts might do if Its directors could manage to secure the sympathy and support or the public at large by the adoption of a more liberal policy than heretofore. IlnruUh'g Cast of W. J. Mullen, Esq. In the window of Messrs. ltalley & Co., Twelfth and Chesnut streets, there Is now on exhibition a fine portrait bust of William J. Mullen, Esq., the well-known Prison Agent, whose phllaathroplo labors are well known and highly appreciated In Philadelphia. The bust, which is an admirable likeness of Mr. Mullen, Is the work of Mr. Albert E. Harnlsh, a young Philadelphia sculptor now re siding In Rome, from whence good accounts of his progress are received from time to time. The bust. Independently of Its fldcli'y, is a highly creditable work of art, and it will undoubtedly be much ad mired by Mr. Mullen's many friends. NOTICED.
