ANOTHER RAILWAY SCHEME.
We understand from reliable authority thai
some of the members of the Senate and As
sembly have a scheme on foot to saddle the citi
zens of Philadelphia with a wholesale grid
ironing in the city railroad way, whether they
(the citizens) will or not. It is of course well
known that most of the recent city railway
schemes originate’with mere speculators who
are entirely indifferent to the amount of damage
they may inflict upon the community, so that
they can fill their own pockets. When there is
sufficient money involved in these operations
there is no difficulty in finding legislators of
easy virtue who will lend themselves to the
work with results that we are unfortunately too
familiar with in the history of Pennsylvania
legislation. In.this latest scheme to which wo
refer, a number of members ot both branches
have taken the speculation into their own hands
*o as to secure for their own pockets the whole
■ »f the profits, and such of the corporators,
ether than themselves, who are named in the
hill, are understood to be mere men of straw.
The whole business has been managed with
•nch secrecy that it is difficult to learn, all the
particulars of the route of the proposed new
road. It provides for occupying Seventh and
Jlinth streets, with branches running to the
Kensington depot, Pairmount, the Baltimore
Bailroad depot, and the Navy Yard, making a
circumbendibus line which will not only run
through the centre ot the city,but which pene
trates to each of its four corners. It can scarcely
be possible that such a road will ever be built
and the object of the passage of the bill can
only be to levy black-mail on railroad com
panies who are interested in other roads.
The plan laid down for the accomplishment
of the scheme is scarcely less outrageous than
the object is that is sought to be accomplished.
It is intended, we learn, to “spring” the bill in
tiie House to-night, when the friends of the

-*
liilrf V®" same-pro
gramme will be gone through with.
g There are, we hope, honest men enough in .j
both branches of the Legislature to defeat this
infamous scheme if ‘ they were prepared for
action upon it,and if all else fails the Governor
will certainly interpose his veto to prevent the
consummation of the disgraceful scheme. The
hurrying of such a bill through, without the
ordinary formalities, is sufficient to make any
legislator above the degree of an. absolute idiot
suspicious of the honesty of the movement;
and if the plans of the conspirators are carried
out we will take good care that the people shal
know through the columns of the Bulletin the
names of the legislators who have gone to the
State Capitol, not to legislate for the good of
their constituents and the State at large, but
for the purpose of filling their own pockets.
DEATH OF DR. FRANKLIN BACHE.
Dr. Franklin Bache, the oldest great grand
son of Benjamin Franklin, and a distinguished
member of the Medical profession, died at his
residence in this city on Saturday afternoon
alter a short illness. Dr. Bache was born in I
Philadelphia on the 25th of October,-1792, and
was the oldest son of the oldest grandchild o( I
Benjamin Franklin. . In 1810 he graduated as I
Bachelor of Arts at the University of Pennsyl
vania, and four years later graduated in the
Medical department of the same institution. I
The year previous ’he entered the Army as I
•Surgeon’s Mate, and tin? fofiowing year was
appointed a full Surgeon, a position fie occu
pied for two years, when he resigned and com
menced a private practice in this city. From j
1824 to 1836 he was physician to the Walnut
street Prison; from 1326 to 1882 a Professor of
Chemistry in the Franklin Institute; from 1829
to 1839 physician to the Eastern Penitentiary;
from iB3l to 1841 Professor of Chemistry in
the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy; and in
1841 he was appointed a Professor of Chemistry
in the Jefferson Medical College, the duties of
which office, he ably and faithfully performed
up to the day that he was taken sick with the
disease which resulted in his death.
He was also at one time President of the
American Philosophical Society, and at the
time of his death the President of the Deaf and
Dumb Asylum. During his long career he
made numerous valuable additions to the par
ticular branch of science of which he was such
an able exponent, the principal of which were
the Dispensatory of the United States, pub
lished by Dr. Gedfge B. Wood and himself,
the first edition of which was issued in 1833.

He was also a "member of the Publishing Com
mittee-of the United States Pharmacopoeia,
and to his persevering labors, frequently ex
tended after the midnight'hour, is due much
of the value of that important work. During
the recent session of the Jefferson Medical
College he showed no evidence of the near
approach of death, and was present at the
Commencement party given on the evening of
the tenth instant, apparently in the enjoyment
of health. Prof. Bache was a brother of Col.
Hartman Bache, of the Engineer Corps, and a
first cousin of Prof. A. Dallas Bache, of tho
Coast Survey. He leaves one daughter, and
fonr sons, three of whom aro in the Govern
ment service.

STYLES.
It is not unfashionable, among newspapers
and people of doubtful loyalty, to ridicule and
abnse the Navy Department, charging it with
want of energy, foresight and wisdom, and es
pecially condemning it for not catching the
rebel cruiser Alabama. We recommend all
who may have been influenced by such criti
cism to read the extract from a speech of Hon.
Edward Everett j made at a dinner given in Bos
ton to the Naval Committee, which wo publish
in another column. The magnitude of the work
done by the Navy Department since the snm
mer of 1861 is astonishing. In fact, a new arid
first-class navy has actually been created in that
brief period. Secretary Welles and Assistant
Secretary Fox can well afford to lay a simple
statement of the facts concerning the navy be
fore the public, as a- complete refutation of all
the idle and frivolous charges brought against
them. Arguing the question becomes wholly
unnecessary. As to the Alabama, the state
ments of Mr. Everett are sufficient to show that
everything has been done that was possible for
her capture and destruction. But the ocean
affords vessels a wide berth, and “ neutral ”
ports afford such frequent refuge for the pirate,
that it would be astonishing if she should ever
be taken or destroyed.
We publish in another column an Ordinance
now before Common Council, of much interest
to the citizens of Philadelphia generally, as
well as to the inhabitants of New Jersey, Dela
ware and Maryland. This bill has passed Se
lect Council twice, and the subject was carefully
considered by a Joint Committee of both
Councils, in 1862, who reported unanimously
in its favor, with an ordinance. It asks that
some public wharves of the Delaware and
Schuylkill shall be used for the reception and'
sale of Cord Wood, under the inspection of
sworn measurers orcorders, and that the wood
should be taxed iwenty-Jive cents per cord for
the benefit of the City Treasury. The objects
expected to be accomplished arc : First—A
, large increase in the supply of wood. Second
—A considerable reduction in the price now
obtained from consumers by the dealers, who
do not allow producers the actual expenses on
it. Thirdly—A handsome increase in the reve
nues of the City Treasury. We also copy the
memorial to Councils, signed by some of our
most influential citizens, the Board of Guar
dians of the Poor, the Trustees of the City
Gas Works and the Presidents of Benevolent
Institutions.
RECRUITING FOR gen. •BTAxrnnnK’s CORPS.
We call attention to an advertisement in to
day’s Bulletin inviting all recruiting agents to
meet the Coal Bounty Fund Committee daily,
atk the Coal Exchange Rooms, - No. 205
Walnut street. The Committee offer liberal
inducements for the filling up of the old Phila
delphia Regiments belonging to Hancock’s
Corps. They are the 69th, 71st, 72d and 106th
