LEGISLATIVE scandals. '
Although the Legislature of this State,
owing to the deadlock in the Senate, is
mible . “ ake an y laws, there is a
renewal of the reports concerning corrupt
practices among the members. We have
already alluded to the fact that several
senators and representatives came to this
City lately and bought largely of a certain
railroad stock, and then proceeded to
« bull” it by reporting that a bill was sure
to pass both houses by which it would, in a
very short time, rise above par. The bill
promised was pushed through the House at
a very rapid rate, on Wednesday last, and
we find in the proceedings of yesterday the
following :
b.ll (authorizing the Lehigh IfiS ' t
r°W-T - a ral r from Ea3toa & Mauch
Chunk), viz^:— e / have always been opposed la
the passage of any bill in behalf of which I had
nlrf’Tr bdieve corru P t influences were used-
Zed to ,l hat such have bein
Votenay?"* the P™«S* oflhisbill, ltherefore
. “ r ’® mitl1 ’ °[ Ck pster, Speaker pro tern.,
took offence at this as reflecting on the
House, and directed that it be stricken from
the Journal. This is a singular proceeding,
and one we regard as wholly unwarrantable.
However, Mr. Hoover’s statement is before
the public, and the public has a right to
expect that he will reveal what he knows
concerning the “ corrupt influences” of
which he speaks. "We are sorry to find
Republican members taking offence at all
public suggestions that the Legislature is
not wholly immaculate. Everybody knows
that corruption has prevailed in that body
for years. It should he the endeavor of
every true patriot and honest man to put a
stop to this, and one of the best ways of
doing this is to inquire into every case
where there is a suspicion of improper con
duct. This Lehigh bill is certainly sus
picious, and Mr. Hoover’s allegation is a
sufficient basis for an investigation.
SOUTHERN NEEDS—THEIR SUPPLY,
Congressmen, editors, and many other
people are perplexing themselves about
what is to be done in the way of “ recon
structing ” the South when the glorious day
arrives when we shall all beat our swords
into plough-shares and spears into pruning
hooks. Plans of reorganization appear
quite frequently, and are eagerly discussed,
without as yet leading to any important re
sult.; There is one important part of South
ern {“reconstruction ” which has not been
much thought of, and that is the way in
which the ex-rebels will stock their stores
and dwellings, their farms and their planta
tions, with the necessaries and luxuries of
civilized life. For three years their sup
plies of tools, furniture, books, boots, shoes,
dry goods, “notions,” and wares of every
kind, have been diminishing, in spite of the
blockade-running business, and in spite of
the feeble attempts made to replace them
by home industry. In every corner of the
South destitution exists, and the most com
mon articles of Northern production are
held at fabulous prices. When the war
ceases, and. the cotton of the South is sold,
there will be a grand rush for everything,
useful and ornamental, which the South
erners were formerly in the habit of using.
From East Tennessee we get a glimpse of
the needs of the people at this period. Par
son Brownlow says ;
“We want tin and stoTe shops, with stock to
carry on business. We want house-carpenters
and cabinetmakers, with materials to carry on.
We want boot and.shoe shops. We want tan
neries, for we have the bark and hides. We
want tailors, blacksmiths, machinists, and all
manner of laborers, saddlers, harness-makers,
carriage-makers, and Union mechanics, to take
the place of the vile set of rebels who have had
their day, and whose proscriptive course and
persecution of leyal men forbids that they
should ever do business here again. We want
school-teachers, physicians and preachers who
are loyal to the Government of the United
States. All such men, and many of them,
should settle now in this country, and start fair
in life in a country of fine scenery, productive
soil, pure water and a salubrious atmosphere.?’
Many persons anticipate at the close of
the war a contraction which may amount
to a financial crash. It would be. curious
if these prognostications were falsified by
the Northern demand for articles of neces
sity and luxury, caused by the return of
loyal soldiers to civil life, and by the im
petus given to Northern manufacturing and
trading by the demands of the reorganized
South. '
PIAN-OS.

id Chestnut.
Steam fire engines are a vast improve
ment upon the old-fashionedjhand-machines,
and they are immense in the way of extin
guishing flame ; but they have a very bad
habit of kindling fires upon their own
account, which detracts seriously from their
merits as extinguishers. Through some pe
culiarity in the construction of the steamers
in use, the sparks are driven with great
force out of the smoke-pipe, and they are
sent flying in all directions, setting fire to
clothing and awnings very frequently,’ and
sometimes igniting roofs of houses. At the
fire in the Ward, yesterday morning,
the sparks from a steamer set fire to a
building, and this second fire was almost as
destructive a® the original conflagration.
This is a senous drawback to the efficiency
of these useful machines, and the matter is
well wtfrthy the attention of our skillful
machinists. Philadelphia mechanics first
brought steam fire engines to the degree of.
perfection they have at'tained, and there is
certainly; skill enough among them to re
medy this single defect.
Yesterday the City Councils met in con
vention and elected Mr. M. H. Dickinson
Chief Inspector of the Department of Street
Cleaning. This is a new office, created by
the ordinance passed at the previous meeting
of Councils, upon the passage of which we
made some comments' a few days ago.
Explanatmns have been made which satisfy
us that we did injustice to those Republican
members who opposed its passage. Mr.
Riche, especially, who argued against its
passage, did so because its passage was
urged by its friends in a manner- that he
considered offensive. Ho voted in favor of
the bill, notwithstanding that he had doubts
of its practicability. We are very glad to
make the amende' to him. We trust also that
the ordinance may turn out to be as effective
as its friends, who framed it, declare it to
be. r i he new Department of Street Cleaning
will go into operation, and we hope, before
spring fairly sets in, to see Philadelphia
once more able to assert her claim to be
considered the cleanest of all the large cities
m the Union.
' EARLE’S GALLERIES.
There are now on special exhibition at Earle’s
Galleries two pictures of remarkable interest
and merit. .One by Schuessele, of this city,
called “American Inventors,” is decidedly the
best and most important work he has yet ex
hibited. it represents, grouped around a table
a number' of the most eminent inventors of this
country.,- There are full length portraits of
Morse, Ericsson, Colt, Goodyear and several
Others. The grouping is natural and easy, and
as a work of art the picture is admirable. Gov
ernment ought to possess it for the Capitol or

thß Patent Office. It is worth a great deal more
money than has been expended on seme.of the
tawdry frescoes of the committee rooms,or the
abominations in oil in the rotunda.
The other painting is the “ Derby Day,” by
Frith, an English artist of great celebrity, who
has never been excelled by any one in his
peculiar line. Every variety of English char
acter is, represented in this very animated
picture. In the foreground are a couple of
acrobats, the younger of whom pauses as he
is about to take a leap, to look longingly on
the feast a footman is preparing for a gay
party in a carriage. Gipsies, beggrs, thimble
riggers, fine ladies and gentlemen, London
swells, rustics and others are capitally rep
resented. On the left are seen the gay mar
quees of the London clubs; on the right are
seen trainers walking the racers around the
course, while in the background the grand
-stand, crowded with people, is visible. No
painting that we have ever seen is more an
imated, or gives a more vivid picture of a char
acteristic English scene. It is to be engraved in
the best style. While it is here, it is well
worthy of being visited.
“ BOB” TYLEB.
Among the Philadelphia ex-official de
faulters to the State, whose names are
reported to the Legislature annually, is
Robert Tyler, formerly Prothonotary of the
Supreme Court of Pennsylvania. This
precious chip of the old Tyler block left'
Philadelphia in so great a hurry in April
18Gjl,that besides numerous private accounts
which he left unsettled, he omitted to pay a
little bill of 8960 12, due by him to the
State Treasury. Robert, on his arrival at
Richmond, was made Register of the Con
federate Treasury. He was compelled to
accept the second office in the rebel Trea
sury department because his stealings North
had not been more extensive. Had he done
as large a business in the plundering line as
thief Floyd did, Memminger would probably
have had to make way for “ Prince Bob
but Robert was only a small cheat, confining
hi* pickings to the money he got out of
poor deluded Irishmen twenty years ago in
consideration of making “ Doubles Repeal
Volunteers” of them, and stealing rather
less than a thousand dollars from the
treasury of the State. Robert should have
“ done better,” and have thus earned him
self a place in the Secesh Cabinet. Floyd
was made a Major-General; “ Bob” had to
put up with a Registership in the waste
paper establishment known as the “ Con
federate Treasury Department.”
Ha. Wmias P. Hazaed, No. 31 South
Sixth Btreet, has obtained possession of the
original plat* of the badge engraved for and
worn at the centennial celebration of Wash
ington’s birth day, in 1832. He has had im
pressions taken on ribbon, for a badge, and on
paper, which may be placed in copies of the
Life of Washington. The badge, which is
very pretty, may be worn at the approaching
celebration.
