EVENING BULLETIN.
WEDNESDAY, JANUARY ,1866
OM CIVIC INAIJOVE&L.
For the first time in eight years the
reins of our city government have
changed hands. After a career which
has placed him high on the list of our
public men, and deep in the regards and
esteem of our citizens, Mr. Henry,retires
to private life, and Morton McMichael
reigns in his stead. As journalists, we
feel proud that our craft is thus repre
sented in one of its most distinguished
members. As citizens, we, feel the deep
est interest in the success of our new ad
ministration, and Mr. McMichael's in
augural address to Select and Common
Councils is well calculated,o inspire the
confidence that the honor which his
predecessor has conferred upon his high
office will be fully maintained by our
new chief magistrate.
Mayor McMichael, after paying a just
compliment to the retiring Mayor, pass
es on to point out the responsibilities
which devolve upon the Executive and
Legislative branches of the City Go
vernment. He dwells, in eloquent
terms, - upon the vast resources, the un
rivaled advantages, the future possibil
ties of Philadelphia. He reminds us of
a cardinal truth, which too many of our
citizens have been slow to receive; when
he says:
"It must ,likewise be admitted that,
in 'recent years, whether it be from the
over caution inspired by the failure of suc
cessive experiments, or from a deficiency in
combined and concentrated effort, or from
some inexplicable cause, we have not made
instant or sufficient use of the natural supe
ribrities of our position. While we deliberate,
it not unfrerptently happens that others ac'
and thus we
"Lase the good we oft might win Mai
By fearing to attempt."
The Inaugural goes on to portray the
present condition and future prpspects
of our country in its industrial relations
and the position which Philadelphia
should occupy in the general advance
ment of our national prosperity. It
declares that
"As a manufacturing centre,' in the
variety, excellence and cheapness of her
productions; in her immense and well
regulated establishments; in the educated
Skill and the prosperous lives of her work
ing classes, she has distanced competition."
Mr. McMichael proceeds to indicate
. what he and his immediate hearers have
to do with promoting these desired
results. He maps out a most compre
hensive range of official responsibilities
when he says:
"By perfecting, to the extent of our
authority, whatever measures may be cal
, cnlated to enhance the wholesomeness of
the city, and the comforts of its inhabitants;
by carrying to the furthest boundaries of its
built.up 'portions the blessings of abundant
light and pure water; by, making; inter
course: between its broadly separated sec
tions inexpensive and frequent; by a rigid
enforcement of all provision 4 intended to
ma,intain, the public tranquility and protect
thepersons and property of the citizens; by a
faithful discharge of our duty in these and
similar particulars, we shall help forward
the grander movements which lie beyond
our province."
And to these Isesponsibilities he pledges
himself and seeks to _commit Cquncils
when he concludes:: his admirable ad
ilres in this impressive language •
"And gentlemen,while in yoursphere,you
achieve what is useful and advance what
if ornamental; and I, in mine, so.farf as the
agencies I am provided with, enable ;me to
do so, compel an impartial obseivance: of the
laws, then if, through any' supinen;e BB or
neglect, which I will not allow myself to ap
prehend, Philadelphia fails to yeach that lofty
station to which she is entitled, before the tri
bunal of our consciences .we shall,. stand
acquitted of all complicity."
These are not' empty words; bu t the
expression of true and Lofty pur,
Poses. Our new Mayor is a man who
has been actuated, in all his • life, by a
proper. and ;worthy, anibition. He is
- tnost thoroughly loyal to Philadelphia,
and Seeks her honor and prosperity, as
well as his g own. enterappon the
Mayoralty when it has been rape!' to a
high standard of dignity and import
ance by his predeceisor, and - his, count
lesafrienfls look to hini; conflflently, to
- vindicate the wisdom of their choice.
There , is a single phrase 4n the In
augural which we did not like.: After
referring in'glowing terms to the results
which mpg flow from a development of
- the resources of Philadelphia Mr.
McMichael says: "It is true; gentlemen
.
•:. that Mr:daily neither you nor myself
.
can do much immediately to promote
this desirable consummation." If the
Mayor and Councils of ‘Philidelphia.can
do;anil they assuredly ein,tltO things re
,counted'in the passage Which:We have
quotedabove, they can, "do -much im
mediately-to promote this desirable con
summation "
There'rs a growing determination on
the part of our people, and we rejoice at
it, to hold our public servants to a stricter
performance of their fullest duty.' •I'he •
have been evils, in some departrnentsO ki
our civil government, which havegrownli
by. the ,impunity which has attendediti
them, until public attention is tho- .. •
roughly aroused. There has beeri much
corrupticin, much • wasteful extrava
gance, much tampering with crime and
complicity with criminals. - From the
police officer up, through nearly all the
intermediate grades of office, > to' the
mosthnportant and responsible positions,
there has been a degree of carelessness
in the discharge of duty, of disregard of
public opinion, and a depreciation of the
standards of official integrity, which
has reached a point where it must soon
begin to work its own 'cure. The masses
of our citiens are very jealous of the
honor and peace of our city. Wth our
onerous taxation comes an incr ing
determination to have the full worth of
Our ,large expenditures, in a faithful,
honest, upright, fearless discharge of
official duties. The people desire to see
law administered more for the protec
tion of the peaceful and innocent, and
less as a screen for the lawless and
criminal. The people will go heartily
with those public servants who go
farthest in pressing the laws to their
extremest construction in maintaining
the order, quiet and safety of our com
munity. They will not be satisfied with
anything less than this. And we look
to our new Mayor, whom we gladly
welcome to his honorable post, and to
whom we desire to give all the aid and
encouragement we can control, so to
administer his office as to make it most
efficient to the ends for which it is cre
ated, and to set such an example of
patriotic devotion to duty and fearless
fidelity to his responsibilities, as will
compel all those who need the lesson, to
take it to heart.
THE HAND•SHAIIING NUISANCE.
It is a very per thing for people to
pay respect to distinguished patriots
and high officials; but there is no
reason why this should always
be , done by shaking their hands.
President Johnson, on New Year's day,
had his right hand wrung by some thou
sands of people. The consequence was
thatthe hand and arm were, by even
ing, badly swollen and inflamed, and he
has not yet entirely reecoverd from the
infliction.
Those who have witnessed a public
reception of any distinguished character
must have observed what a cruel ordeal
it is; and they must also have remarked
that many of the men presented are not
Satisfied with slightly pressing the.hand,
but seize it with a rough grasp and
wring it half a dozen or a dozen times.
There have even been cases in which it
was suspected that there was a design
to dislocate or otherwise disable the arm
of the person by whom the reception
was given. It is time this thing was
reformed. Hand-shaking at public re
ceptions,where large numbers of persons
are presented, should be discontinued
altogether; or else the persons meant to
be honored should be provided with a
false arm, which would not feel the
rough treatment of a promiscuous
crowd. The custom is a republican one,
and in that respect is not to be com
plained of. But when people abuse the
privilege and put the President of the
Uniteu States in bodily pain for days, it
,ought to be forbidden. We hope Presi
dent Johnson will forbid it at his next
general reception.
WESTERN VIEW OF THE TARIFF
In an article on the subject of Protec
tion of Home Manufactures, the Chicago
Republican takes the ground that the
people of the West should favor an ade
quate tariff. It alludes to reports that
certain representatives in Congress from
that section have resolved to oppose any
alterations in the tariff which will
secure home manufactures 'Against
foreign competition, and adds: "Here
in the West, manufactures are rapidly
springing up, and the farmers are inter
ested in their prosperity and develop
ment almost as much as those who are
directly concerned in them. We appre
hend, accordingly, that any Western
representative who votes against such
dtities upon foreign wares as will save
from destruction our own infant iron,
mills, woollen mills, flax mills, cotton
mills, and the like, will find himself
condemned by his constituents."
We rejoice to see so unequivocal an
expression of sentiment from so influ
ential a quarter. The West has 'here
tofore, to some extent, misapprehended
its true interests in the matter of
Piotection, and it is time that sound,
healthy and comprehensive views
should bp held Airougliout that wok and
rapidly gr*ffig and strengthening
section of the Republic.

Tai ITALIAN OPERA.—There was the best paying
audiencelait evening at the Academy offlusic that has
ever been there except on the occasion of the (visit of
the Prince of. Wales. The receipts were over six thou
hal:10011=S. The family circle and amphitheatre were
as MoWdell as,werc the lower parts of the douse, and
hundreds of, paeotui had to stand. , ;
Illeyerbeer's 'Posthumous opera, rAfricaine, was the
occasion - ottlds'eXtraordinary gathering. "His name,
ettlecialif:litiaclaid to a new opera, always brings out
our tmusidial , popnlation, poor as welt as rich, and last
evening the ruunoof the opera probably attracted the

the second act there is a good scene bettieen "Sellka"

equally good asl.lnez.'" her handsome face and figure,
fresh, well-trained voice and gracefuLintelligent acting
being all that ,colald be desired in the part of Inez.
Signor Mazzoleil, as "Vascci.di Gama," sang superbly
sad actectwith great intensity and with the manly
dignity for which he is noted above all the tenors we
have beard. Signor Belllni, in the important part of
"Nelusito," acted and sang remarkably' well; and Sig
nor Antonucci was equally good as "Don Pedro." The
minor parts were also well sustained. The orchestra
and chorus were worthy of all praise. Although the
perfoi mance was not over until after midnight, the
audience showed no signs of weariness, and the ap_
plause was frequent and hearty. We hope the Afri
cains will be repeated before the compony leaves us.
This evening Donizetti's popular opera of Poliuto
(The Martyrs) .
will be played, strongly cast: Signor
massimji Ant, the excellent tenor, will make Ins first
appearance this Season. i
' The companies of the three theatres appear this
