TUESDAY, MARCH 29, 1864,
- PLOT XHXUK±J?B.
It will be seen by-the report of yesterday’s ;
favor of the J “ “
scheme werer received in the House ;
id like to see a list of the signers of these
petitions. We would like t 0 k “°' v
Lme of * he nameB were procure ? at - h
perhfiad, and whether each of the signers re
eeived a glass of whiskey for putting his name
to a document, that might as well have been on
any other subject under Heafen, so far as the
signer would know or care. We would Uke to
know whether the tactics of the Border Ruffian
party in Kansas, in Lecompton times, were also
imitated, and whether names were transcribed
iiom an old directory; or, whether the ingenious -
device of copying names at random from tomb
stones and door-plates was practised, as in the
ancient Fourth Ward style.
There are doubtless the signatures of men of
substance affixed to these petitions, for there
are some men of substance who have a huge
axe to grind in the monster scheme; but we
have strong doubts whether the names of a
dozen influential citizens will be found among
the whole array of signatures, unless the per
sons named have been taken into the “ring.”
At the session yesterday. Mr. Smith, of Phila
delphia, who seems to be the chief engineer in
pinning this scandalous measure through the
Legislature, submitted a petition in favor of the
hill, which the reporter says was signed by the
‘•Presidents of Select and-Common Coun
cils.” This matter demands some explana
tion. Mr. Harper certainly never gave
his official sanction to the scheme, because
Common Council, over which he presides,
would almost inevitably have passed resolutions
protesting against the bUI, on Thursday last,
had not an adjournment been hurried through;
and Mr. Lynd,we are persuaded, would never
have signed any such petition after Select
Council had.passed resolutions strongly pro
testing against the consummation of the railroad
echeme. It seems most probable that the signa
tures of both Messrs. Lynd and Harper, as pri
vate gentlemen,were early affixed to the petition
to oblige personal friends who importuned them
for the use of their names. The managers of
the plot then presented their petition, at Har
risburg, as the prayer of both branches of City
Councils. This theory would account for the
anxiety of the wire-workers in the scheme to
suppress all public, notice of the adverse pro
ceedings of Select Council, on Thursday last,
a movement in which they were successful un.
til the resolutions appeared in full in the Bul
tETis of Friday. This corrupt giant railway
echeme was conceived in sin, brought forth in
iniquity, and nursed by duplicity and double
dealing. We trust that the infant monster may
he strangled in its cradle.’
EXTRAVAGANCE—TAXATION.
We do not sympathize with the croaking of
the Copperheads, who pretend to see in every
sign of national prosperity an indication of
swiftly approaching ruin. On the contrary,
nothing can be more assured than that this Re-
public is strong enough to bear any burden
which Providence can lay upon her. Within
herself Ehe bears the elements of such strength
as no nation ever possessed. Her fields and
mines only wait for tens of millions of hands to
bring forth their resources, and there is room
for increase of manufactures and commerce, be
yond the wildest dreams of any who have
prophesied our greatness. It must he said,
however, that there is a general appreciation of
the fact that great sums of money are being
wasted, and that extravagance is too prominent
a Tice of the times. The sudden accumulation
of large sums of money through government
contracts, and through speculations in stocks
and gold, has led to careless expenditure in al
our large cities, and the example thus set has
been followed by many persons who have not
enjoyed the same facilities for accumulation as
contractors and speculators. These facts are
apparent, right on the surface, and the foul
weather prophets, mostly in the interest of the
rebels, keep up a dolorous clamor about the
matter, and like birds of evil omen, pronounce
the “end of all things at hand.”
Acknowledging thus, as we do, that the sur
lace indications are not economical; that too
many foreign goods are imported, and that
many who cannot afford it indulge in a weak,
though natural, propensity for luxuries, we
cannot but believe that these very things prove
the affluence of the nation and her capacity to
carry on war with but little detriment to the
arts of peace. If the country was poverty
stricken, it would show it. If bread, shelter
and clothing were wanting, we would see gaunt
faces, plethoric alms-houses and “looped and
windowed Taggedness” on all sides. Poverty
and vice would go hand in hand along our
thoroughfares, and even in Chestnut street the
gnm visage of famine would obtrude itself.
Yet, for such extravagance as does exist,
albeit not so fearful as the Copperheads would ]
xepresent it, a remedy exists. It is simply j
resolute, discriminating, equitable Taxation"
by the National Government. Every one feels
that the revenue from customs and the receipts
from internal taxes are not sufficient for the
meeds of the Government, and the sooner that
Congress .realizes the fact the better for us SU
—the better for the Administration, for it can
then pay the interest on our debt with ease
■- the better for .ho contractors and speculators,
‘ 'for they will be obliged to retrench; and lastly,
best for the Copperheads and croakers, for
their economical souls will then no longer be
scared at the signs of that national wealth and
strength which now so appal them.
; . ' THE PENH MUTUAL.
We call attention' to the advertisement of the
Pena Mutual Insurance Company in our columns
to-day. The-Company is managed by our own
* business men, and is conducted withprudence and
liberality. During the raids, into our Sta*e, its.
members, desiring to do so, received permits to
enter the service, and on their return were relieved
of all charge for the risk. The statement shows a
prosperous condition and substantial assets.

sbilj and industry. By far the larger portion of
tbe money received on the occasion of the Fairs
held for the benefit of the Sanitary Commission in
Cincinnati, Boston, and Brooklyn, was derived
from direct donations in c ash, and not from-th&
proceeds of the sale of articles exposed. What
th*» Sanitary Commission needs .to afford
relief to the sick. and wounded soldiers
is money. in large amounts and from,
all sources. We call, then, upon all bank*
ers, corporations, capitalists, persons living upon
incomes, professional" or otherwise; in short,
upon all who will not be represented in he Fair by
their productions to imitate the example of those
who will, and to contribute liberally in money
for this great object. In New York, although
their Fair is not to be held for two weeks, contri«
buttons of more than $200,000' in cash have been
already received, a single department of trade,
that of dr > goods, having made up more tban half
that sum. Brooklyn, and Cincinnati have each
contributed as much in money, and certainly the
wealth liberality and patriotism of Philadelphia
can hardly be considered as less conspicuous than
that of these communities. .Contributions will
thankfully received by any of the members of
the Committee.
