EVENING BULLETIN
WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 17, 1864.
THE LEHIGH RAILROADS.
Lately we referred to certain extensive
stock speculations undertaken by members
cf the Legislature, on the strength of a bill
which they promised to have passed, for
the construction, by the Lehigh' Coal and
Navigation Company, of a new railroad
3own the valley of the Lehigh. To-day we
pnblish the bill in fully and we ask our
readers to give it'an examination. The
second section not only authorizes the
building of a new railroad from Mauch
Chunk to Easton,, but the building of-any
number of branches, in any direction, each
®f which branches may be two hundred
miles long. Under tips provision, the cor
poration can cover the whole of the Eas tern
part of the State with railroads, if it
should desire to do so. What necessity or
propriety there can be in giving such un
limited license to any corporation,wecannot
imagine. We should like to see all parts of'
the State properly supplied with railroad
lacilities; but there is such a thing as over
doing bhe business, There is no great
of railroads in the Lehigh Valley,
the ! T ould like to be informed of
In to assi Sncd for authorizing
an existing corporation to build any number
.Of miles additional, and running 7 in any
direction. Besides, this project has been
made use of in Third street in a dis
reputable way, which creates a suspicion
*f konaethihgwrong, if not of absolute cor
ruption.
V THE HIGHWAY HEPABTMEKT — STT AT.T,
HAVEEEFOBMOB NOT?
We adverted briefly, a few days. ago,, to
the extraordinary scenes which took place
last, Monday in Councils. The matter is
important- to be passed over without
■further remark. •
The Republican party stood pledged and
stand pledged to reform the abopiihable cor
ruptions of the Highway Department. Two
.bills were drawn up for this purpose; jointly
covering -the whole ground. .Oiie, by Mr.
.Wetherilfe especiaUy directed: to the street
cleaning; the other,, by Mr. Miller, em
x bracing the remaining: matters connected
with the Department. ; When, however, the
: time came for action, it appeared that a
gang of contractors had resolved that the
corruption - should be continued for their
benefit. Arrogating to themselves th? name
of the Republican party, they attempted to
dictate to members of Council, and insisted
that Councils should go into convention ;to
elect the heads of departments, without
action on the reform bills.; It is scarcely
credible, but nevertheless true, that these
contractors gained over one by one the
members, until Mr. Miller and Mr.
Wetherill stood alone, among the Repub
licans, the champions of'reform. Mr. Zane
and Riche made themselves particularly
noisy and conspicious as the fuglemen of the
corruptionists, threatening even a man
damus,(!) to drive Councils into convention,
Finally the bill for street cleaning was
passed. Then Mr. Wetherill consented
to go -into convention. With a ; sincere
respect for Mr. Wetherill, we regret that he
should have done so; had he held out, the
entire reform would have been secured.
Mr. Spencer Miller, however, remained
perfectly immovable,, and expressing with
out reserve his opinion of the course which
matters were taking. Still there was hope.
Councils arev so’nearly divided thatithere
was no possibility of carrying the eonyen-.
tion without another vote. At this critical
period a Democrat, Dr. Kamerly, ratted;
What considerations led him to adopt this
course we cannot of course more than sur
mise. Perhaps it was a cunningly devised
trap to destroy the Republicans by identi
fying them, like the defeated Democracy,
with corruption. Perhaps the arguments
were still more solid.
It now remains to he seen whether the
Republican party will venture to continue
to refuse to the public this reform. Are the
abominable corruptions of the Schofield
crew to be continued ? Is the peculation,
the bribe, the corruption, the systematic
stealing of paving material, is all this to go
on under Republican rule, as heretofore!?
The members of councils owe their election
not to the clique of contractors who are try
ing to use them for their purposes, but to
the citizens, who were determined to oust
Democracy and to have a reform. It may
be dangerous to irritate this gang, but is it
not still more dangerous to irritate the pub
lic, the tax-payers, the voters? In *ne
word,' can the Republican party afford to
shoulder the iniquity, the odium, and the
disgrace ol refusing a reform and continuing
the present state of things? It cannot.
FASHION IN MOURNING.
A distinguished and highly respected
citizen of Philadelphia lately suffered a
severe bereavement. After the
funeral he had his window shutters thrown
wide open, thus setting at defiance the ab
surd Philadelphia fashion of keeping the
house darkened after a death, the duration
of the darkness being measured by the
closeness of the relationship of the de
ceased. In no other city but Philadelphia,
in either America or Europe, does this
fashion of darkening a house of mourning
prevail. And yet we are quite sure that
the dead are elsewhere as sincerely mourned
and their memories are as piously respected
as they are here. Indeed the parade that
our people make of their grief, and the con
ventional etiquette in their fashion of
mourning, give strangers an idea that there
ik less in it of sincerity than of show-
There is no reason why the light of day and
the blessed airs of heaven should be shut
out of a house for a year because a wife or
husband has died, or for six months because
a child has been - taken away. Nor can a
reasoning being see why more distant rela
tives of the deceased should measure then
sorrow or their sympathy by keeping their
windows bowed for a stated number of
days or weeks, Strangers, unaccustomed
to the fashions of Philadelphia affliction,
are often amazed at the number of houses
with windows bowed and hung with black
crape or ribbon. They suppose that each
of such houses contains a corpse, and they
conclude that some dire and wide-spread
epidemic is. among us. It is time that this
absurd fashion should be abolished. No
one will think the sorrow of a family is
greater or more sincere because their house
is.shut up. Besides,'light and air are
essential to health and cheerfulness, and
these are especially needed in houses where
there has been (sickness and sorrow. We
trust the example of the eminent gentleman
to whom we have referred, and whose grief
no one will question, even though his win
dows are all open, will be followed univer
sally in our community.
THE GEBMAN OPEBA.
Philadelphians have been more liberal
than the musical people of other cities in
their support" of the German Opera. And
yet their support has hardly been commen
surate with the efforts of the company, or
the delight afforded by their performances*
They have greatly enlarged our knowledge
of the art of music, and have given us many
revelations as to its progress and its capa
bilities'which we should never have obtained
from the Italians. ’ They first gave us the
great operas of Beethoven and Weber, and.
one of Mozart’s never before sung here,
iheyhave made us acquainted with Kreut
zer, Wagner, Spohr, Nicolai, Lortzing, Gou
-0 , oieldieu and others whom we had onlv
known by report. Their leading artiste
ave labored faithfully and conscientiously
to interpret properly the works of these
omposers; while their orchestra and chorus
It is only by recalling these and othef
facts, connected with the performances or
the German company during the past ' two
years, that we can appreciate the extent ot‘
our obligations to them. The artists are
grateful for the support given to them here;
but it is scarcely sufficient to warrant a con
tinuance of their efforts to please, owing to
the heavy expenses of their enterprise.
.They desire to prolong their stay beyond
hv present week, fWd to offer new attract
i «USimi.V . toboaky w iBS4
tions to the public/ But some assurance* is
needed that they will not lose money; This
can best be gi ven.by filling the house during!
the performances yet to take place this week-
If there should .lie a large and brilliant audi
ence this evening, tb hear. :the delightful
opera of La Dame Blanche, and another on
Fridav evening, when. Gounod’s rJFciust will
prhbably be produced, the artists would feel
encouraged to remain. Let all interested,
use then: best exertions to effect such a
result.
The horrors of the Libby prison, against
which the civilized world has so loudly but
fruitlessly protested, it appears have even
shocked" the sensibilities of a Richmond
journalist, a representative, of the human
species which it was believed no outrage,-
no act of cruelty, could appal. The editor
of the Enquirer with unusual boldness has
ventured to express in print his opinion of
that charnel-house, and to describe what he
saw within its walls, while on a visit of
curiosity to seethe incarcerated ‘/Yankees.”
He says ‘- The Libby takes in the captured
Federals by scores but lets none out; they
are huddled. up and jammed into every
nook’and corner ; and at night the floor of
every room they occupy is covered, evcry ;
square inch of it,.by uneasy slumberers,
lying side by side and heel to head, as
tightly packed as if the prison were a ' huge
improbable box of nocturnal sardines. It is
truly surprising that some pestilence has
not been the result of this herding together
of human beings who are constantly breath
ing the same impure air, and who are
allowed no ont-door exercise. If it should
become necessary to reduce their diet to
cold corn hread,they will not have strength
enough in them even to masticate it.”
"What an exposure is this of rebel cruelty.
What a commentary upon the : boasted
chivalry and- hospitality of the South.
Thousands of brave heroes, many of them
suffering from the effects of honorable
'wounds or of continued sickness, are con
fined in such a circumscribed space that
their appearance after nightfall, when their
eyelids are closed, and their minds are
relieved of the agony with which during the
day they are afflicted, reminds the facetious
editor of a box of sardines ; and yet the
days pass by, and the brutal captors, gloat
ing over the suffering and pain they are
inflicting, take no step to remedy the evil.
The statement which we published yes
terday from the Enquirer should be circu
lated throughout the length and breadth of
the loyal States. It will prove a greater
stimulus to recruiting than all the addresses
combined that our authorities, civic and
military, can promulgate. Two Corps, at
least, are being reorganized for special ser
vice, and rumor designates the rebel capital
as the point to which they will march under
the leadership of brave and experienced
commanders, and the release of the cap
tives is said to he one of the great objects to
bo attained. What greater mcentive can be
offered for enlistments than the thrilling
facts thus opportunely given us by this
journalist, and the great end wiich it is ru
mored is to be accomplished by Burnside
and Hancock.
It has hitherto been the policy of the
traitors to deny the oft-repeated statements
of cruelty practised and suffering endured ;
but the report of the editor of the Enquirer
proves conclusively how false have been
those denials, and how horrible the wretch
edness and misery which have been the lot
of the patriots and heroes in the Richmond
prisons.
THE GREAT CENTRAL FAIR FOR THE SAN-
The early part of Jane has been fixed upon
as the time for holding the great Fair lor Penn
sylvania, New Jersey and Delaware, in aid of
the Sanitary Commission. -
The gentlemen of the Union .League, and
other loyal associations in Philadephia, are en
tering earnestly into the spirit of the nnder
-11 taking, and are already organizing committees
to take charge of the different branches of
work, and the various kinds and channels of
contributions j and we would call upon all loyal
men and women through the States named
above to act promptly, both in an individiia
and collective capacity and to mako such
preparations for entering upon this great work
as may tend to ensure its creditable and effi
cient accomplishment-

was very gray, to its original dark color, and the
