The leading article on "Philadelphia,'
which is profusely illustrated with capital
drawings by a Philadelphia artist, Mr. Thomas
Moran, should secure for this number of
Ecribner's an extensive sale in this locality.
The article, which is from the pen of J. T.
Headley, is an excellent resume of the char
acteristic features of Philadelphia, and it
does full justice to the good points of the
Quaker City. After this, perhaps, the most
striking article in the number is the solution
of Samson's riddle which is proposed by
Mr. R. W. Wright. This is curious and in
genious if not convincing, and is well worthy
of a perusal. Another exoellent artiole is
that on "Free-trade and Protection," by
Horace Bushnell. From Mr. Headley's paper
on "Philadelphia" we take the following:
In all other cities the great question has
been how to give this clans cleanly, comfort
able, safe apartments. In Philadelphia it has
been, how to give them pleasant, attractive
homes. Home influence is the strongest on
earth in keeping a man from dissolute com
panionship and the grog-shop, and from
becoming a mere vagrant on the Sabbath
day. Even though he never enters a church,
there is a pulpit in his own house, and
the preacher, the sweet restraining influ
ences of home. These insensibly, in time,
draw him towards the plaoe of worship,
just as they draw him away from unhal
lowed places and associations. It is im
possible to overestimate the effect of this
borne influence on the morals and oharaoter
of a great city, not to meDtion the amount of
suffering it prevents and the happiness it
confers on families. Especially to the Ame
rican mechanic and laborer is this possession
of a home of vital importance. Without it
his restless nature is very likely to draw him
into companionships and occupations fiat
' mar or destroy his character. Whether New
York, with its circumscribed limits and its
extremely . poor population, can ever carry
out this system as thoroughly as Philadel-
: phia is doubtful; but certainly something
might be done, perhaps on Long Island, if
rapid, cheap transit could be established.
The home feeling seems to rule very
strongly in the erection of all their houses in
Philadelphia. It is true, on Walnut street
modern palatial residences are going up, aud
under the influence of increasing wealth and
ruinous fashion it may in time rival Fifth
avenue, where people do not build homes for
their own comfort, but objects of admira
tion for other people to gaze at. Palaces
furnish grand sights to spectators, but poor
homes to the inmates. Take Arch street,
where so many of the solid men of Philadel
phia live, and as far as you can see are rows
- of brick houses, three or four stories high,
plain and neat in style, without any basements,
and hence without areas and flignts of steps.
They are almost flush with the sidewalk, aud
sitting so flat on the ground, present, at first,
a singular appearanoe to one aooustomed to
- the high steps and iron railings ia front of
New York houses. The parlors being so clone
to the ground and sidewalk, the lover win
dows are protected by solid white shutters,
which contrast singularly with the green
' blinds -of the upper stories. But there is
something snug, comfortable, and home-like
about them that renders them peculiarly
attractive.
A beneficent and admirable regulation,
adopted in 1855, has prevented the opening
of any new street, court, lane or alley, f leas
than twenty-five feet in width. It has, more
over, compelled all the old courts, lanes, etc,
when widened, to be made twenty feet wide,
BO matter what the former width; while every
new dwelling-houBe must have an open space
attached to it, in the rear or at the side, equal
to at least twelve feet square.
From Mr. Bubhnell'a exoellent article on
"Free Trade and Protection," the whole of
which we earnestly oommend to the attention
of our readers, we make these extracts:
What did we disoover in our war of 1812,
but that we had nothing to equip the wat?
Having no woollen manufacture, we could not
clothe our soldiers; we could not even make a
blanket. We had been free-traders, baying
all such things because we could buy their
cheaper; but we now discovered, how soon,
that we might better have been making
blankets at doable the cost for t be last fifty
years. The same was true of saltpetre for
gunpowder; of guns, and cannon, and swords;
and iron and steel out of which to make them.
A nation that is to be a power must have at
least a" sufficient supply of iron made at home,
no matter what the coat, to arm itself for war.
We began also to make the disoovery shortly
that the very insigninoant article of suit.
coming in short supply, was nearly a dead
necessity one of the munitions of war and
that manufacturing it for ourselves at double
the cost would have been a true advan
tage.
We were a youDg nation in the war of 1812.
and we very soon discovered, in facta already
referred to, the lowneas of our orgauizatioa,
and the very incomplete scope of our indus
trial equipments. Our products were n-jt
various enough to make us a complete nation
It is often urged as the special advantata of
young nations, that they can havw 1L bene
fits of free trade, without trouble from the
shock that must be given to old artitlniat lu
vestmente; but we had another kind of nho k
to bear tlat was far more perilous, from the
scant equipment in wLion our previous r re.
i iraue practice naa leit ns. i'mnaps we were
gaining in wealth by such trade, but we were
miserably unprepared by it for the at res of
our great public trial.
There must also be a Urce variety in Dro-
ducta and trades, or modes of industry, to
raise complexities enough for allowing the
loll tense of society. A people uiuut have
manifold relationships 'to feel each other as
parts in a oommen unity. If they have tnly
a few trades and occupations, as most young
peoples have, they cannot have public con
sciousness enough to give them a history
any more than a body can be fully oonioious
that ia only, or all, leg. They are like the
wholly pastoral race of Tartars, roaming over
their wastes, living every man by what feeds
every other's life; organized, therefore, if at
all, in but the faintest manner, and
scarcely conscious of being at
all national. A colony, beginning to be
a State or nation, may have been living
almost wholly by a single article of produc
tion, because it has brought the readiest and
the largest profit be it cattle, or corn, or cot
ton. They ought, of course, on free-trade
principles, to continue. Which, if thoy do,
they will inevitably make sure of their insig
nificance. Such people are only doubles or
repetitions of each other too much alike, too
little complementary one to another, to have
any real interpenetration,suoh as makes a con
scious whole. They can have no public will,
or sentiment, or cause, or counsel. Their
interest is too completely identical to make
even their agreement significant. Instead of
being a body kept in force by an immense,
almost infinite interplay of nerves, ducts, tis
sues, secretions, excretions, yielding new
muRcle and bone, oil, lubrications, sanitary
self-medications every organ necessary some
how to every other, and all neoessary to all
instead of being thus a body, they are one that
has only the bone-making function, or that
has a huge overgrown liver organ, packing it
full, and pumping its one deluge of bile into
the eyes, the skin, the brain, supplying never
what is wanted, but only more of what is not
wanted, and organizing really nothing.
Hence the immense interest a young
State may have, in even making heavy
loss from its wealth, to stimulate, in dis
regard of all free-trade maxims, such trades
and ways of skilled production as will
yield the needed variety. Otherwise
their one art or production' leaves
them only a guild and not a nation. And
guilds are the weakest of all organizations,
save as they are sprinkled in among other
guilds and get strength from the reactions
and counteraotions of other dissimilarities.
Thus a one-guild nation may seem to be high
and strong enough to make brave stand for
their one thing, but when they are put to
some long struggle, as nations are in their
wars, the one-thing fire, be it for cotton or
anything else, is too flashy to hold; whereas
the organization framed by diversities and
reciprocities stands fast in the interlock of
functions that make common cause, being
components together in a full endowed body,
