" - COMPLETING THE GRIDIRON.
On. Monday last a bill was introduced into
the House of Representatives at Harrisburg
incorporating a railroad company to coh
.struct a road on Seyenth and Ninth streets
and running-to Fairmount. The; corpora
. . tors named are Elisha C. Pauling, Thos-
Charles Thompson Jones, Amos
Briggs, D. W. Gamble, Barclay Harding,
Williajn B, Mann, Joseph McGary, Alexan
der T. Dixon,; Hiram Miller, James A,
Freeman, Joseph Manuel, Samuel P. Han
cock, Henry TV". Gray, Enoch Green.
These persons, or a majority of them, are
appointed Commissioners to open books, re
ceive subscriptions, and organize a coin
's* 117 ’the name, style and title of “The
.-Seventh and Ninth streets and* Fair
mount Passenger Railway .Company,” with
power to construct a passenger railway, be
tmmng-at Seventh - and Morris streets,
thence along Moms street west to Ninth
‘ gjg’ thenCe no * h alon e Ninth street to
"“ge .-nyenue,; : thence northwest alone

?wenlfv”l “ Vern °n Btreet tp
■ strcet ’ north along
Twenty-third street to Coates street,thence
west along Coates street to Fairmont
Park; thence returning east along Coates
street to Twenty-second street,- thence
south along - Twenty-second street to Wal
lace street, thence ■east~aloilg Wallace
street to Ridge avenue, thence south
east along Ridge avenue to Spring.
Garden street, thence east along Spring
Garden street to Seventh street, thence
south 'along Seventh street, around the
west side, of Franklin and Washington
Squares to the place of beginning. Subject
to all the provisions and. restrictions of an
act regulating railroad companies, approved
the nineteenth day of February, A. J). one
thousand eight hundred and forty-nine, and
the several supplements thereto, so far as
the same is not altered and repealed by this
act. And the said “ Seventh and ’ Ninth
Streets and Fairinount Passenger Railyray
Company ” shall have the right to cross at
grade and connect with any other railroad
now built t>r that may hereafter .be built in
the city of Philadelphia.
In other words this bill proposes; to lay
a railway track upon almost every principal
street in the city, which is not already oc
cupied with a railroad. Persons who desire
to travel up-town from Morris street to
Arch, or down-town from Arch strept to
Morris, can find cars running on Second',
Third, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Eighth, Tenth
and Eleventh streets; while the Thirteenth
and Fifteenth, and Seventeenth and
teenth streets railways ruh from the ex
treme upper end of the city to Prime EtrCot:
Ninth street from Arch to Vine, Ridge
avenue, from Vine street north, and Coates
street, through-out its entire length, are
already gridironed, and the proposed new
road must either run over the rails already
laid, or additional tracks must be con
structed. Seventh, Ninth, Twenty-third,
Mount Vernon, Wallace and Spring
Garden streets are 'among the few
principal thoroughfares in the city
which have escaped railway tracks
along their entire length. This bill pro
poses to finish up the work of gridironing
the city by laying tracks where they are
not needed, and where they will be worse
than useless. ‘lt is ho desire to supply a
public want that has prompted this move;
but it is simply a matter of speculation.
We have but little fa: slature
resisting the substantii iat are
sometimes employed to passage
of such bills as this ; l latcity
councils will interpose their authorityvin the
event of the bill becoming a law, and ex
press their dissent to the measure withm
the thirty days named in the bill. City rail
ways are very good things in their way;
but we have quite a sufficiency of them.and
“too much of a good thing is good for no
thing.” '
FAIBMOUHT PARK.
Should the project of purchasing the
ground between Pennsylvania avenue,
Coates street and Landing avenue be car
ried out, as now appears likely, we trust
that it will not be suffered to remain in its
present condition. If care is not taken, the
houses will cease to be occupied by political
hangers-on at nominal rents, as was so long
the case at Lemon Hill. We all remember
how that beautiful spot was for years, un
der Democratic rule, a low groggery, which
no decent person could go near, and a chosen
centre of rowdyism, until the Republicans
rescued it, and opened it for the benefit of
the citizens at large. If the ground is.worth
buying, it is worth applying to the purpose
for which it is bought, arid so long as it re
mains. as it .is,- it matters little tq the public
who owns it. \
There seems very little good sense applied
to the management of our public grounds.
Large sums are spent, and yet the most ob
vious matters are disregarded. Look at
Landing Avenue; hot, sunny and dusty.
A few dollars would have planted an avenue
of trees along it, which, if done a few years
since, would now give shade and shelter.
The seats in the Lemon Hill portion are
altogether too few. In fine weather it is
hard -to find one vacant. How much bet
ter is money spent for these purposes than
in putting up ugly iron boxes over springs
of dirty water, or in patching up the exist
ing buildings, instead of removing them
altogether. The amount of money required
for these places need never be large, but it
should be judiciously applied.
THE ALABAMA.
There can be little doubt of the truth of
the report, that comes by way of San Fran
cisco, that in the beginning of January the
pirate steamer Alabama was in dock at
Amoy, China, and that the United States
steamer Wyoming was standing guard over
her. TVe trust that this fact may be con
sidered as equivalent to the termination of
the •Alabama’s piratical career. If Com
mander, McDougal were to put a more
prompt and decisive termination to it,' by'
firing a broadside into her in the harbor , it
would be eminently satisfactory to the loyal
people of this country, China has never
recognized the rebel government as even a
belligerent power. Her; ■ depredations upon
our commerce, therefore, are simple acts of
piracy, and there could be no justifiable
complaints against us if we. were to destroy
her in a Chinese port. We shall rejoice if
the next news- received should be that the’
outlaw and pirate Semmes has lost his ship
by the mode we suggest'. «
SPECULATORS TO. THE PEOPLE?
It was stated in the House, on Monday,
that the question as to whether spirits on
hand should be taxed or not would make a
difference of ten millions of dollars ! To the
consumers this question is without interest,
as,; whichever way it is decided, the price
charged for: it will be the same. Alcohol,
worth a few years ago 56 cents per gallon’
s now selling at $1 98. The point is sini
ply whether these ten millions shall go to
the government or speculators. The lobby
pressure is tremendous, and under it many'
yielded of whom t bettor things were
expected, Jhe rot? .90 tfe?-final question

will be scanned carefully, and members
who wish to preserve an unsullied charac-.
ter should look out for their record.
One of the most amusing pieces of news
by a late arrival is that the Empress of
Franee has thrown'her Italian perfumgr
into prison for having sold some of the se
crets, of her toilet. Really this carries one
refreshingly back to the times of Catherine
de Medici and Rtne leFlorentin; only that
it is to be hoped, that the secrets are of a
less dangerous sort. There is" something
inexpressibly comic in the spectacle of this
middle-aged lady endeavoring to appropriate
to herself these secrets of artificial embel
lishment; as if the fountain of youth could
spring from a perfumer’s vial, or the
purpureum lumen juventce be worked up into
a pommade.
The process of reasoning by which a man
n aches a given result is a curious and often
mysterious operation. At St. Louis, recently,
ori the occasion of the reception of a number of
veteran volunteers of Missouri, Gen. McNeil in
a pithy speech thus showed how he had at
tained to his present views of the war and sla
very:—
• -I and many others have stood here, the fatthfnl
sentinels over every man’s negro. The traitors
dared this rebellion in older to open the stave trade.
They were afraid of the growth of population on
this graud bread-growing country, and broke the
contract under which we worked faithfully, and
When they "broke that contract, j Ba td we would
make n new contract which would wipe out sla
very." [Cheers.] I never should have interfered
I WRS a Conservative in times of peace; I al ways
have been a Conservative. I thank God my fuller
gave me a trade, and when he Eent me ont he said
he was patting a ioaf of bread under my arm. I
never asked for a pnbllc oiilce. I felt Conserva
tive; ,f filt like sustaining everything that kept
peace and qnietnet s between onr neighbors. W hen
ibis, war came, I said we will have a new deal en
tirely and before this war is doae will do away
with the cause of it. You may suppose I am di
verging into the line of politics; but in this war a
soldier cannot talk without getting into politics.
Every: hing is political, and bayone's are radical ’ ’
General McNeil is only the type of a class
comprising scores of thousands of the best
kind of democrats in the land. Many of thrim
are as far advanced as be and a long proces
sion follows in his rear, with steady step. Re
cently, in the *1101156 of Representatives at
'Washington, Hon. James A. Garfield, of Ohio,
late ehief of staff to Gen. Rosecrans, gave ut
terance to an account of his change of views
in the subjoined terse and energetic style:
• ‘I remember to hare said to a friend when 1 en
tered the army, *Yon hate Slavery; eo do I; but I
hate Disunion more. Let us drop the Slavery
queition and fight to sustain the union. VHien
the supremacy of the Government has been re
e6tablifhtd, we will attend to the other question. ’ ■
I started out with that position, taken in good
faith, as did thousands of others of all parties
But the aimy soon found that, do what it would,’
the black phantom met it everywhere. In the
camp, in the bivonac, on the battle-field, and at
all tunes. It was n ghost that would not be laid.
Slavery wa, both the strength and weakness of the
.enemy. His strength—for it tilled his fields and
lea his legions: his weakness—for in the hearts of
slaycs dwelt dim prophecies that their delireranc >
from bondage would be the outcome of the war.
The negroes came from the cotton-fields; they
swam riven; they climbed mountains: they came
through jungles, in the darkness nna storm* of
the night, to tell us that the' enemy was coming
here or coming there. They were onr true friends
in every case. There has hardly been a battle, a
march, or any important event of the war, where
the friend of our cause, the black man, has not
been found truthful and helpful, and’always
devotedly loyal. TheN:onvietion forced itself
upon the mind of a very soldier that behind the
rebel aimy of soldiers, the black army of laborers
was feeding and sustaining the rebellion.and there
could be no victory till its maln snpport be taken
“Gentlemen on the other side, youtell me that
this is an Abolition war. If you pleaseto say so.
I grant it. The rapid current of events has made
the army of the Bepnblic an Abolition army. I
can find in the ranks a thousand men wh*j*re in
fayor of sweeping away Slavery to everyqozea
that desire to preserve it. They hare been where
they have seen its malevolence, it* baleful effect ’
upon the country and the Union, and they demand '
that it tTtall be swept away. l *
Among the gigantic and inappreciable losses
of the slave-holding South, they count the
warm friendship of tens of thousands of men
like McNeil and Garfield! While the South
maintained its loyalty, even only in appear
ance, their Northern friends would have stood
by them and their institutions to the last drop
of blood; bui when they reared the fell crest
of treason and rebellion, their friends shrunk
back as from something worse than death,, and
roused themselves from visions of Southern
chivalry and honor to the hideous reality.
DEATH OF GENERAL DUNCAN
The venerable General William Duncan died
at his residence on Tuesday last, at the age of
ninety-two years. For many years he had
been, a resident of Philadelphia, though a
native of Adams'county. He was an intimate
friend, in early life, of Robert Morris, the great
financier. In the War of 1812 he was an active
ofiicor, and held several prominent military
commands under the State and National
Governments. He also, under Presidents
Madison and Jackson, held important civic
offices, his last public position being that of
Surveyor of this port. Since that period he
has been retired fr-om active life, though
retaining to the last, his interest in certain
public institutions which he had aided ia
founding. For more : than half a century
General Duncan was an office-bearer in the
First Baptist Church, and his entire life was in
consonance with his religious professions.
His funeral is announced to be from his late
residence, Seventh and Wood streets, to-morrow
afternoon, and the interment of the remains
will take place at Woodland Ceme'ery
;; Me, Mubdoch’S Second ReabSS takes place
this evening at the Musical Fund Hall. In ad
dition to his Scriptural extracts he will read &
number of poems by famous American and
Eng ishauthors. Mr v Murdoch' deserves the
most liberal support from our loyal citizens,
for he has labored m the armyand for the army
with great, zeal arid disinterestedness.' His
first reading gave great satisfaction to hia large
audience, and we have no'doubt but that he
will equally interest those who attend the
second and third readings of the course.
' , 0l ’ r ff — La • Dame Blanche was
beautifully played last evening by the Germans,
at the Academy of Music. Habelmann’s singing
surpassed in beauty and purity that of any
tenor we have had here since Mario. To-morrow
evening Don Giovanni will be produced, cast to
the full strength of the company, .Of course
there wifi be a full house, as there always is to
bear the master-piece of Mozart. On Satur
day, for a matinee, Atradeffa will be given.
