A majority of tlie mib-cemmlttcc of the law commlttceof Philadelphia coun cils have found and reported te their superior hotly certain facts touching the nlmltilstnitlen of City solicitor roll's, which are a very significant feature- et the history of municipal government in that city as administered in the old days of reckless carelessness or criminal mis conduct en the part of the elllclals. It seems that In 1875 and 1870 Charles II. T.C'ellls, then city solicitor, confessed judgments or suffered them te be given against the cltynmoiiiilliigte$l,lls,SiL,l 05 One of these cases was that of tieorge Ileldcraft, and Judgment was confessed for $1C0.25 for labor in the highway de partment. Ileldcraft had already been paid for this labor and never brought a suit for the money, but it was paid aiain by mandamus ; nor had he ever sold any claim against the city. The real plaintiff was William Armstrong, who said he liaJ bought It in the usual way." M. M. Ceppuck, elder cleik of the highway department, acted as agent for Arm. strong in the purchase of about $.'!00,(H'0 worth of claims. These weie bought at ten ber cent, discount. In this case Urn- cral Uellis agreed with the attorney fir the claim that thn decision should bind some thirty ethers, amounting te about $50,000. Ih a number of ether cases it has been made manifest that the city has been paying the same claim muie than onr.e nnd some claims that had no foun dation whatever : la the Mi.naghati and Weedei e.ne Oeu Oeu eral Cellis confessed judgment for $1, 038 70, and both men say that they bad (belt-pay by wuriuutsnnddh net authorize William H. YcikeB, new judge, te tun thu city. Neither bnd they leoeived any of the mouey. Tliu $1,033 was in addition te thu appropriation. Mr, William Armstrong was tbe real plaint id. William May, whose milt wns ler 812, 110 58, paid he had nover nutherisrd Fimllay fc Themas te appear for him nor had he authorized the t-uit. Gcerge L Dicta's naiue was used lu a mandamus for ?2G0 without bis kuowledge or consent, and the report mcutieucd many ether cases In which the allegations were of the Barue kind. Mr. Arumtrniig said he he had bought the claims of Assistant Highway Commis sioners Ilaiucs, Nutlall, Cobb and Oilli gan, and ex Contrellor Hancock bought $20,000 worth of contractors' warrants at ten per cent. discount. Mr. Armstrong collected by mandamus through his at at at toreoy, William U, Mum, prothenotary. In thirty cases, involving 3 1,000, breucht through Fimllay & Themas, Mr. Fiudlny denied that he allowed tbe use of his in me or received any of tbe fees. Out cf these thirty eases twenty seven weie paid teS. P. Hancock, city contrellor, and te Peter Lane, jr., chief elerk of the city treasurer, and no', te the plaiutillH of record. In tbe case of the Ultie Stoue company luaudamus suits were hienght without tee consent of, tbe com piny and the company did net receive tbe money paid by the city. Then tbe report speaks of the Mlskey cise and elhcis. It was shown that tbe sntts weie brought by speculators and tbe money was obtained en suits brought nominally by plaiutills who knew nothing of them and had no Bhare in the prellt. Gen. Oellis maintains and claims te be nole te show that in all these c.tses he acted In geed faith and upon representa tions made te him by the proper city ellicers, that the city had no defense and it would be a waste of time and money te attempt te make ene. Nevertheless, be decllued te waive his privileges te make the defense of the statute of limi tations in any suits te be brought against him for eirieial negligence or miscon duct. And the main committee trusts se far te his innocence us te refuse te order any such suits. This refusal does net, however, telieve Celin from the necessity of clearing up his record which he shows a disposition te de by unload ing the responsibility upon some ether of theso who weie in elllue, in ether di. partmeutsef the city government at his time. "When he shall have succeeded in thus transferring the buiden the fact will still remain that the city waspluudeied by whelesale in this mandamus business, and the incident will serve as fresh illus tratlen of the course of the Republican party in federal, state and local admin iBtratien ever the whole country in the past twenty years. There is no remedy for it except in the ouster of that patty from power, and the way te accomplish this Is for the Dumecrutii te succeed them. The most iadlc.il opponents of the Democracy are beginning te recog nize this, and even such men as Wendell Phillips say : " If I could I would try te rally n temperance paity, but the tern perance men huve always betrayed us at the polls ; or 1 would try te rally a Greenback party, aincu the (ireenbackeis have only halt done their work. Jlut at present there can be only two political parties. The Uepubliean is one. 1 distrust and despise the Republicans as hypocrites and lime ueiveis, as double dealers, as soulless cairien masquerading in the grave clothes or their honored predecessors." Ten sheer audacity of statement and impudent adherence te it, Chairman Coeporof the Republican state commit tee takes the palm. After having vainly sought te deleat the II nines bill, which is corrective of treasury mismanage ment, Cooper boldly proclaimed the ether nlsjlit at Uedfetd, that the Humes bill was a M Republic in measure." Al though Mr. Powell was lilmeelf born In Bradford county nnd his ancestors came te this country in 17 ii, Coepar shame lessly declared thai he was an Kngllsh. man. Ills last mendacious public, ut terancn was the statement te ,i Timcx reporter the "P.ittlieu administration has, in the first year of its power, cost the people and the Industries of our state nearly two ami a half millions of dollars ever and abeve the ordinary expense of the state government." Of course no. body belleves any such gresj and uinitial Hied falsehood, net even Cooper hlmaelf. The audacity of the fellow proves the desperation of his cause. All ever the country people tire awakenlng te the imposition practiced upon the rights of private property by theso whose corporate Interests are served by the erection of poles for electric wires. They must go, 7 T Tins J'rcs. thfnks it is a Democratic error for the politicians and leaders of that party in this state te depend for the election of their ticket upon the votes of Independent Republicans. It is an error en the part of the I'rms te assume th.it the Democrats are depending upon any such thing. At the last state election there were nearly as many votes polled for Mr. PaUlsen ai the combined vote for Stewart and Heaver ; an analysis hit's proved Hint neatly all the votes cast for PaUlsen were Democratic votes. Nobody seems te expect that either party will poll as full a vote this year as last, se that it becomes a contest as te which party will poll the larger percentage or thn vote it east last rail. Fer many reasons the chancer favor the Democrats. They have remained united, aggressive, hopeful and organized. The processes of Republican reunion have ben painfully slew, lu the regul.u session of the Legislature the most nota ble antagonisms were these or the Stul warts and Regulars or the Senate ; and when, upon the main ksuoef the cam p.iign, tlie reform of the treasury man agement, the Republican policy is round te be a e mtitiii nice of the present ugiun' the V will find that Independent Republicans will mostly sit en the fence and watcli thu ptoeessieu. Tin. upial representation denied tbe Dennviats is of Kiich consuming import ance an te almost overshadow already the uiip.iihaniuut.iry treatment of thoSjiute minority.

There is much of life, a geed deal that is vigen in, a trille of humor, in the play ; but there are also a loesouoss of construction, an un founded sttain for sensational situations, which ueirly always aie impiobahle, a measiuable degiee of easy inei.il ty, ami new and then a tinge or coarseness distressingly apparent, all of which are features that aie almost essen tially I'atisiau.
