There is a system of slavery flourishing In many et the large cities of the country that has nearly all of the worst features of negre despotism willi nene of its few com pensatiens. It is called the " padrene" system and is briefly the purchase, in tue form of hiring, of Innumerable Italian lads te run the streets of great cities in various occupations, the money derived from which Is te be scrupulously turned ever le their masters. Singularly enough, this nefari ous system has received llttle attention from philanthropists. "While Henry Uergh is spending thousands looking after the in terests of dumb brutes, and Antheny Corn Cern stock Is devoting his energies te the purifi cation of the malls, the llttle Italian boy is left te the mercy of a padrone who Is often fiendishly cruel. This traffic seems te have had its origin in 1667 with the Italian consulate at that time, many of the attaches of which ever since have been accused of complicity in the commerce. The only legislation ever armed against it was the Morene law of 1874, championed by an Italian slgner 01 that iiame. With his departure te Italy, eight years nge, the law became a dead let ter, and his return te this country a few years age flnd3 the system mere powerful than ever before. Enumerating seme of the evils of this pernicious form of slavery, Sener Morene says: " This padrone system Is an outrage en American civilization and humanit. Children are brought here under the plea of teaching them mechanical trades, and adults of both setcs are induced te mort gage their little properties, in farm or vine yard lands, in Italy for quadruple the amount of their passage money, and te en ter into contracts with the padreni te work for from ene te six years under the premise that, at the end et the contract and when the money advanced has been repaid, they will be given forms in various parts of the United States. The children and adults when once here enter into a life of slavery worse than that of the Southern negre be fore emancipation. They are compelled te de whatever their taskmasters require of them ; te play the harp, violin or hand or gan, te beg, te pick rags or te work en the railroads, and the padreni collect and keep the mouey they earn, lodging them in mis erable quarters, and furnishing them with peer feed and cheap clothing, for all of which they charge up against their victims enormous prices." It is a blot en the fair fame of the coun try that this deplorable condition of affairs should be permitted. He who Inaugurates and carries through legislative measures that will cut out this sere from the body politic, will rank high as ene of the bene factors of his race. Seme Questions. A young man who was n clerk in the Fidelity Trust company, Philadelphia, was sentenced yesterday te the penitentiary for twenty-ene months' upon his confession that he had taken bends from its vaults. Judge FInletter, in sentencing him, re minded him of the gravity of his offense, hi violating the trust reposed in him, shaking the confidenco of the community in trust companies as safe deio?iterlcs, and risking the suspicion of his crime falling upon his Innocent fellow clerks. "Which was very well. But wouldltnethavebeenalso well for the judge te liave considered that the shaken confidence of the community in the Fidel ity as a Bafo depository did net come from the crime of this clerk, but from the fact wliich he developed, that the rules of the trust company made his theft possible. Se far as this clement in his offense is concerned was he net entitled rather te gratitude than denunciation for the devel opment he madeV And upon the judges' theory of the gravltv added te his olTense by the lest confidence of the community, might net the directors of the Fidelity have been sent te Jail ?
