TIIE TRIUMm OF THE FRENCH
GOVERNMENT.
A rEABFtrL pioture of the closing scenes of
the exciting drama in Paris is given by the
brief announcements in the cable telegrams.
We are told that even yesterday, when every
rational Communist must hive known that
further resistance was hopeless, the slaughter
was terrifio, that barricades were captured and
recaptured six times,' that the Arohbishop of
Taris and several active priests have probably
been killed in cold blood by the insurgents,
and that, as the Government troops'gave no
quarter in their victorious assaults, many of
the Commune leaders were captured
and immediately shot. At last aooounts the
long struggle had ended in a complete tri
umph of MaoMahon'a army, and order is
apparently about to be established. The
Commune movement was stained with so
many extravagances, follies, and crimes that
its overthrow was evident from the outset;
and the persistence of Faris in such a mad
struggle can only be aooounted for on the
presumption that among the many bad things
contended for there was one good princi
plethe doctrine of local self-government.
II. Thiers, even in the hour
f victory, will earn the gratitude of future
Frenchmen if he makes a vigorous effort to
have this prinoiple incorporated, to the
greatest possible extent, in the new govern
mental system of France. If the terrible
ordeal to whioh that nation has been sub
jected is to lead to beneficial results of any
description, the weakening of her rigorous
old system of sweeping centralization should
be one of them. It is proved now that
Paris is no longer France; let the next step
be to establish institutions under which
Paris may be Paris, and each French city
have a local life exclusively its own.
AT IT AGAIN.
What the Pope or the French Emperor ever
did to the Reformed Presbyterians that the
Committee on the Signs of the Times of the
synod now in session in this city should
have yesterday introduced a resolution ex
pressing thankfulness for their downfall, we
are not exactly able to understand. We sup
pose there is some remote connection in the
minds of the Reformed Presbyterians be
tween the exile of Napoleon and the occupa
tion of Rome by the Italian Government and
the masEacre of St. Bartholomew, for which
a certain Pope and a certain French monarch
who lived several centuries ago were imme
diately responsible. Exactly how the present
tribulations of the Pope and Emperor ade
quately counterbalance the slaughter of the
Huguenots is, however, not quite apparent.
The nephew of his uncle, it is true, has lost his
throne, but he has saved his neck and a large
amount ' of ' hard cash besides, which will
enable him to live very comfortably
for the balance of his days, while it is within
the range of possibility that he may even
return to France and wield the imperial
sceptre again. As for the Pope, he has, it is
true, lost his temporal possessions; but a very
great many of the co-religionists of his Holi
ness, as well as practical common-sense
people outside of the Catholics communion,
consider that this will be a decided advantage
than otherwise to him, and that it will in
crease his influence as a spiritual ruler. So
far from the Roman Church having fallen
with the loss of the Pope's temporal power,
it is stronger in many localities than
it ever was before. Some persons indeed
contend, and present strong arguments to
prove their position, that it is in point of
fact the established Church of NewYork State,
and that it holds the balance of temporal as
well as spiritual power. Under these ciroum
Btances, it is difficult to see the neoeasity of
the Reformed Presbyterians holding a special
day of thanksgiving in November next, unless,
indeed, it is to give thanks for the misery
whioh has been broaght upon thousand of
innocent people, who were neither directly
nor indirectly responsible for the doings of
the Pope or Emperor, by the events of the
past year.
There is one sensible proposition con
tained in the report of the Committee on the
Signs of the Times of the syuol, and that is
that the first day of January next be observed
as a day of fasting and prayer for the sins of
the Church. We presume, of course, that
this means the Reformed Presbyterian
Church, and we sinoerely think that some of
its members need to do a little fasting and
praying on account of the seauctal they have
brought xipon religion by some of their per
formances. They also Badly need enlighten
ment on a number of points, and if on the
first of January nxt they pray earnestly that
the spirit of bigotry and stupidity may pass
awayrom them former, it is possible that
euoh scanda a as that of the First Reformed
Presbyterian Church of tUa city, and saih
silly resolutions and reports a bave been con
sidered in the synod during the past
few days, will not be repeated in the future,
and the members of the Church will be en
bled to realize the fact that charity is a
Christian virtue worthy of cultivation. Th.e
fact is, our Reformed Presbyterian friemLj
are, we fear, oblivious of the fact that they
live in the United States of America, in tha
nineteenth century, instead of in the Iligh-
ands of Scotland in the seventeenth, and
tl tey find it easier to pass resolutions against
In, a Pope and the Emperor than they da to
m rg in lively opposition to the works of
the Devil as manifested immediately before
then e7e8 There is abundant social, politi
cal, a1 religious corruption in oar inicUt that
is well worthy of the earnest attention of
such a body as the Reformed Presby
terian Synod, and the moral and
physical regeneration of suoh a locality as
Bedford street, for instanoe, would afford
them ample opportunities to display their
zeal. If they desire a more extensive field of
operations, they might try to reform some of
our politioal wire-pullers, and if they oould
induce the members of the State Legislature
to appreciate the faot that the interests of the
public and the cause of good government
deserve some real attention, they would do
more to advance religion and morality than
they will do by exulting over the misfortunes
of the people of Franoe and the downfall of
the Pope and Emperor.
THE DEAD-LOCK UNLOCKED.
The proceedings of the State Legislature yes
terday indicate that a better feeling is spring
ing up between the two houses, and there is
a fair prospect that all the important business
of the session will be disposed of, in some
fashion, by the time fixed for the final ad
journment. The Democrats are anxious to
avoid or evade the responsibility of adjourn
ing before an appropriation bill is passed;
and this part of the legislative business
will probably soon be arranged.
It remains to be seen whether
any provision whatever will be made for the
proposed Constitutional Convention. The
Senate proposes to submit the project to a
popular vote at the October election, while
the House insists that it shall be submitted
at an earlier period, and the conflict of these
projects may lead to a postponement of the
whole movement; but it is to be hoped that
better counsels will prevail. On the issue
which has the most direct bearing on partisan
interests, the proposod revision of the
Registry law, the Republican House so far
deferred to the wishes of the Democratic
Senate yesterday as to consent to the appoint
ment of a committee to consider this
subject. "The necessity of a Registry law to
protect the ballot-box in this city was illus
trated by the notorious frauds perpetrated by
the Democracy in 18G8, and by tbe fact that
men who were actively engaged in those in
famies are prominent leaders of the Philadel
phia Democracy at this time. But the masses
of the Republican party have no desire or
disposition to encourage counter-cheating
for the nominal benefit of the Republican
party, but really designed to aid in the elec
tion of a few of its worst men to lucrative
offices. Any provisions in the existing law
which tend to facilitate such a nefarious pur
pose should, in justice, be modified. Espe
cial pains should be taken to prevent the
alteration of election returns, or false count
ing, and one of the proposed methods of ac
complishing this end, viz., an amendment
requiring that the returns shall be counted in
the presence of the judges of the county
courts, should unquestionably be adopted. It
is necessary to prevent violence and blood
shed, rb well as to. ensure an accurate record
of the ballots cast by the voters of Philadel
phia. And the Republican party should
scorn any pretended local triumphs which
are based on fraud, perjury, and a rascally
ptrveision of the popular will.
One of the most sensible new measures pro
posed during the present session of the Legis
lature was that offered by Mr. Robb in the
House yesterday, that Major Jack Cumminga,
of Snyder county, should be made Lieutenant-Governor
of Pennsylvania for life! Jaok
is a fine specimen of the good old Pennsyl
vania gentleman, one of the olden time,
and, Democrat as he is, would be an admira
ble occupant of a god fat office to which no
troublesome and annoying duties were at
tached. He can tell a good story, continue
for an indefinite period a rehearsal of the
politics of the last fifty years, as he under
stands it, to admiring audiences, and his size
and general get-up would render him an ad
mirable figure-head. By all means let Jaok
be made Lieutenant-Governor for life! When
buch a desirable end is to be attained, it is
folly to quibble over little constitutional dif
ficulties. A Champion Taleist Senator Casserley,
of California, who spoke for five mortal hours
yesterday on the new treaty, to an audience
of Senators whose average knowledge of the
treaty under consideration and of treaties in
general is quite eqpal to the stock of infor
mation possessed by the garrulous young
fledging from the Pacific coast.
OBITUARY, .
Ilev. Davis IV. Clark, D. !., Ulihop of the
til. K. Church.
Within a year or no past the Methodist Episcopal
Church has sustained the logs of four of Its most
prominent divines, Bishops Thomson and Klogaley,
and Drs. McCHntock aud NadaL And now death
hes made another serious Inroad upon the Church.
A despatch from Cincinnati announces the death In
that city of Bishop Clark, who has beea In falling
health lor several mouths past, hU death being only
a question of time.
Davis wasgatt Clark was brn on the island of
Mount Desert, orr the coast of Maine, la the year
1S12. Alter his preparatory studies at tha Maine
Wttlejan Seminary, li entered the Wes
loan University at Mlildletown, Conn., In 1334, and
praduated fiom that institution In 1S36. Imme
diately afterwards he became Prluclpal of the semi
nary at Amenla, N. V., where he remained seven
yeaia The trustees weie so reluctant to part with
I im that they declined to accept his resignation, but
leferred the matter to the Annual Conference, by
which body his request to be permitted to enter
upon the active outus of the , ministry was
granted, For tuna ears thereafter, he filled
important stations, being four years in New Yore
city, la 1853 the G n uiU Conference elected hltn
ediicr of the Ladita' UeponiUity, an Influential church
monthly, and also of the books published by the
Clncluiiuti branch of. the Methodist Hook Concern.
)c lstti, and again In ISM, ho was re-elected to these
responsible posl'lons, holding them uutll 1S64, when,
iy the General Conference lu ll lu this city he was
elevated to the episcopacy, the datles of which high
Ullco he CDiitluued to uis-harge with great accepts
Uiity until prostrated by illness last winter. In
140. tho Wesleyan Unlveisltj conferred the degree
t l)'etor of Divinity upon the late Bishop, ai
a fimtg acknowledgment of hla learning and ability.
li'Mii'i) dark was quite a voluminous writer. Ia
he published a treatise ou Algebra, which
I uoe-i tluougti several editions; he was a frequent
contributor to the ilethodUt Quarterly Rtvieic, as
weil as of the monthly ol watch he was so long
editor ; and wrote a "Treatise on Mental Discipline,"
"Death-bed Scenes," and "The Life aud Times of
Bhtfiop Hcddlng," In addition to editing numerous
volume s which were published by the nook Con
cern. Ills death will be a severe blow to the Church,
and especially to tbe episcopacy, which has already
been so severely crippled. There are now but
Seven bishops of the Church living Morris,
Janes, Scott, Simpson, Baker, Ames, and Roberts,
In the order of their ordination to the episcopacy.
Bishop Morris, who entered the ministry in IS18 and
was ordained bishop in 1S36, Is the senior bishop, but
hla health has been ao poor for some time past that
he cannot attend to any episcopal dutle ; while the
operations of Bishop Koberts are restricted to the
mission work In Liberia, leavlnor but five active
members of the episcopacy, upon whom devolve the
manifold labors of the home and foreign missionary
fields.
The death of Bishop Clark occurred at twenty
minutes after I o'clock last evening, tbe members ef
his family and Bishop Janes only being present at
the time. The funeral services will take place on
Friday of this week.
TIIE VENDOME COMJUX
Incidents Immediately Preceding Its De
struetlou.
Tbe destruction of the famous Vendome
Column, by the Paris Reds is now a matter of
past history; but as it is none the less instruc
tive to understand the passions and prejudices
which were at work In the Parisian mind before
tbe vandallc act was perpetrated, the following
from tbe London Timefi1 correspondence will be
read with Interest:
Paris, May 8. The event promised for to-day was
the fall of the colonue Vendome. It had been pro
mised by M. Felix l'yat In the Vengcur, one of the
few JonmHls now lelt us. For some dayi there has
been a scairololng surrounding the lower part of It,
and as a curtain of cloth at the top of the 8oirolding
pievents any one seeing whether the work of de
struction has actually commenced, there Is no dis
proving the statement nmde by Imaginative or
courageous Journalists, that the column has beeu
alreaiiy more than half sawn through, and only
wants a strong pull with a chain, held by Ecalous
Communists, to make it totter to its fail. Crowds
went, therefore, to taKe their last look
at. it yesterday. Home of them
discovering lor the first time that the column is not
finite straight a fact which, I must confess, had
escaped lue until it a pointed out by a connois
seurspread a leport that it was already tottering,
and this morning many went expecting to find th.it
it han fallen. '1 hey appeared very pleajcd to see it
still standing, as far ns one could judge, untouched,
and with no preparations made for its lmuiedlau
full. to. 'at, with a graceful badinage peculiarly
bis own, iiad suggested that a huge dung-heap
should be prepared to receive it, and, though this
suggestion be taken as a Joke, one may perhaps as
sume that straw or some soft substance will be
thickly strewn over the I'lace Vendome before the
column is pulled down; otherwise, the Commune
may get lets inoi:ey than they are said to expsct from
the sale of its materials, to say nothing ol the shock
inflicted upon the nerves of tho neighboring resi
dents, and the possible dumxge to their houses. I
spent an Idle hair-hour in listening to numerous
conversations about Its promised destruction. The
only man I heard defend the policy of the Commune
did so cn tho ground that a monument, recording
military triumphs hurt the feelings of all members
of the nations over which these triumphs had been
wen. lie declared, for himself, that the sight of the
Lion or Waterloo had made him experience a very
ucuomfortable sensation. Ills objection Is only
worth mentioning la consequence of the retorts
which it provoked retorts not very logical, but
significant or the present temper of a large portion
of the Parisian population. He vra3 told that
foreigners who were foolish enough to bo hurt by
the (. olonne Vendome might stay uway from Paris;
that it much be much better for I'aris if many of
them would stay away as, for instance, Dombrow
tU and all the oih-r foreign soldiers of fortune,
w hose business it was to foster misery by which
they throve who made, lu fact, a living by killing
other people, and did not. euro what ruin they
brought down on poor Furls, because at tho last
moment they coma easuy rusu uko rus irora a sins.
ll!E thin.
The whole conversation appeared to me significant
of the prehent temper of Paris, I dou't think I have
before heard the ucts of the Commune, or the con
duct of l's leading snpnoiters openly criticized with
so lurch freedom in the luci of tho fact that the
biteels swarm with informers, and that the slightest
p t-siblo prettxr such, for instance, as that you
hnve a e r.isin at Versailles, or that you kept a post
oii.ee uiidtr me empire is considered sumcieni
Bicund for arrest. I went Into the Place Vemtome,
anu was glad to llnd tbtevun the Oanles Natlonaux
Inchurgeof the column members of the rnrHt go
ahead battalions were strongly opposed to its de
struction. JCven om who sugge.-rrd, as u com
promise, that scaffolding should bu utilized t
take away the eagles and bonhomme," as Im dit
lespectruiiy styled the great man at the top of tne
column, was reminded that those formed au essen
tial part or the trophy, and that tha trophy belonged
to the nation and to history. One of the names
Natlonaux threw an odd and, to me, a new light
upon 'he propesed demolition, by declaring thai;
under the column lay buried. In coin of all countries,
a good routid sum of moiey. However, as my in
formant added, thev cou'd easily enough get at this
treasure by digging underneath the column without
destroying it

Energy TaiCMPniNT Thk Extknsivb Form-
Turk Establishments of Missus. Gould &. Co. at
Ninth and Market and on Second Streets.
Among the Philadelphia merchants who cw
lay claim to the possession in the highest degree
of excellent business talents, rare energy,
and indomitable perseverance, we c in ciU to
mind none more prominent than tho firm of
Messrs. Gould & Co.. furniture dealers, at the
northeast corner of Ninth and Market. These
gentlemen have recently made very esteusive
improvements at the old stand, and now there
rises up from Ninth and Market a haadsoma
white five-storied structure, which is an onrv
ment to that flourishing locality. This large
establishment Messrs. Gould & Co. have com
pletely filled with all varieties of furniture, and
of the very best quality. A purchaser, how
ever capricious, cannot fall to be thoroughly
accommodated if he calls upon Messrs. Gju1J&
Co., to varied Is their stock of furniture.
Messrs. Gould & Co. have succeeded la build
ing up an enormous trade, aud It has been
found necessary to keep two establishments la
operation. We refer to the other large ware
rooms of the firm at Nos. STaud 39 North Second
street. This large store, also white ia color
(white seems to be the favorable color with
Messrs. Gould & Co.; no doubt au emblem of
their character), is fully equipped for the large
business which each year is growiu ; to such au
extent that tbe firm will be compelled to start
another establishment.
Messrs. Gould & Co. entered the furniture
business thoroughly in earnest, and tbe success
with which they have been favored has beeu
due to their rare good qualities, politeness, at
tentlon, energy, and enterprise, without which
no man can expect to succeed. .
To the Philadelphia Public.
New York, May 92, 1871.
I have this day transferred my store, No. 830
Chesnut street, under the Continental Hotel, to my
brother, Albert L. Helmbold. This I do lu cousid
eratlon of his past services during my business
career, wherein he has ever done full just'ee to the
confidence I bave always placed In him, and make
this as a Just and merited acknowledgment. Ills
natural amiability of temperament, conjoined with
industrious habits, must win for htm tbe good feel
ing of all with whom he may be thrown In contact.
1 feel assured that my Philadelphia friends, who
have always manifested a deep luterest In my wel
fare, will evidence to my brother the same kindly
appreciation, and cheer him in bis endeavors to
perpetuate an establishment that, "without ego
tism' i can say Is a credit to ray native city, irre
spective of tbe constant occupation of time whici
precludes my attention to a branch establishment,
tbe desire to place my brother in an Independent
position was the rullug motive In the opening of
the 'Temple of Pharmacy."
I wish It distinctly understood that I shall at all
times give my brother my hearty co-operatiuu, and
8 all supply hUu from my resources with all that
he may desire to mke the enterprise a permanent
success. Your obedient servant,
