SHALL PHEIAA.DELDHIA DO HER DITTY? We'are glad to see that the public is aroused to the importance of the pro posed, plan to establish lines of steam ships from Philadelphia to the principal Southern ports. This enterprise we have consistently advocated, but never with such hopes of its success as we feel now. It is a wonder, an anomaly,a disgrace, that this city, with its vast manufac tures, its large population and noble harbor, should be almost destitute of steam communication with other ports, and dependent upon other cities for transportation. How can we hope to in crease, or even continue our prosperity, if we remain indifferent to the only way of keeping pace with our great rivals? The experiment has been tried since the close of the war, and lines to Charleston and Savannah have been established; but, owing to the fact that Southern merchants have learned to depend upon New York for the ship ment of goods, they did not succeed. A large number of the best merchants of Philadelphia have now combined their influence to give Philadelphia regular steam communication with other ports; they have raised four hundred thousand dollars, and depend on the business community in general for a subscription that shall make the fund six hundred thousand or a million. What would be the action of the mer chants and manufacturers of New York if such an enterprise were needed in that great commercial city? Not one million, but five would be raised in a month. They would see that the pros perity of the city was dependent on its direct communication with other ports; they would make sure that the want of it should not divert trade from their counting-houses and stores. But even Baltimore excels us in the number and success of her steamships, and every day Philadelphia loses thousands of dollars because her merchants make no attempts to compete with her rivals. We must change all this, even if we care only selfishly for our own interests and have no pride in the reputation of the city. The opportunity now given by the restoration of peace, and the con sequent impetus given to trade through out the Union, must be used, for it will not return. If we allow rival cities to monopolize steam communication, the current of trade will be permanently di verted from Philadelphia. Yet we do not speak in doubt or dis couragement, but have faith in the com plete success of the great movement now before the public. There is not a leading merchant, we believe, who does not en dorse its necessity, and there is not a Juisiness interest that it Will not benefit. All that is needed is immedia . e energy andlaiberality. The 4400,00 must be doubled before the month ends. Then (for there are vessels now on sale suffi cient) we shall have regular steam lines to the ehief Southern ports; we shall bring business to the city; we shall be independent of New York and Balti more. A meeting will be held to-mor row (Friday) afternoon at the rooms of the Board of Trade, at half-past four, when it is hoped that a large increase of the fund will be reported, and we earn estly urge all our business men to attend. This is a matter of the first importance; for the sake of the interest and honor of Philadelphia it must not be neglected. THE NORTH-WEST ON TREASON. There is something wonderfully doviri right and vigorous ,in the character of our people of the North Western section of the country. •Whatever' they 'do or say breathes of the bioad prEaries, the majestic rivers, the daring pioneers, the bold backwoodsmen, the absolute spirit of untrammeled freedom 16 think; speak and act for themselves, which belong, to that wonderful new world ~of. ours. Abraham Lincoln was o- splendid sped men of this Northwestern character. Keen in hisperceptkins, unsoPhisticated in his methods of thought and action.; fearless in &dug right o simple in all his tastes, with, a native instinct for the' right, and an equally natural aversion'; to what was mean tir Wrong, he con founded the wisdom of the' wise and brought to nothing the understanding of the proudest. In all this, he was only a type of the Northwestern character. WO are attracted to this topic by the inaugural address just delivered by Go vernor Fairchild, of Wisconsin: With out circumlocution, he deals with the, leading issues of the day, handling them with that bold, free manner that the people love so well, and so easily under stand. In dealing With the question of the treason that was involved in the re bellion he expresses a sentiment that finds a clear echo in the breasts of the whole people of the North. He takes up President Johnson's oft-repeated doc trine of treason and declares that it must be shown to be a crime. He utters no new truth and yet it is one that we should like to hear enunciated by every loyal Executive in the land. "Not until Jefferson Davis shall have been tried, convicted and hung for trea son, and the fact that treaOn is a crime which cannot be committed with impu nity, shall have thus been fully demon strated, will the American people be content." The lapse of time since the capture and imprisonment of Davis has not produced the slightest change in the sentiment of the people upon the ques tion of his crime, or the duty of the Government. The nation goes with President Johnson in all his generous leniency towards the masses of the South. But no greater mistake could be made than to suppose that the natural generosity of the American people will ever supersede their clear sense of justice and right. Very patiently the people wait for the trial of Jefferson Davis. But they wait patiently because they know that it must come. They believe in their rulers, and they believe that those rulers thoroughly understand the fixed determination of the people that treason must be made a crime. The delay in the trial of Jefferson Davis has doubtless been a wise one. A military commission could not have determined the great question of the crime of trea son. Such a trial might have found him guilty of crimes enough to cost him his life, as it would undoubtedly have done in the case of Lee or Maury, or any of their brother-traitors, but it would not have fulfilled the requirements of the civil law. The trial has been deferred until it can be safely and properly insti tuted; but Governor Fairchild utters a truth which is as well understood in Washington as Wisconsin, when he says that the American people will never be satisfied until Jefferson Davis is "tried, convicted and hung." FIRES-INSILT RANCE At this season of the year there are always many large and destructive fires, the conflagratiensresulting mostly from accident, and their extent being determined by the difficulty of extin guishing them, owing to frozen fire plugs, intense cold, slippery streets, &c. In addition to the late fire on Chestnut street in this city, we notice in yester day and to-day's papers an extensive conflagration at Yonkers, New York, by which one of the largest and finest buildings in the place was destroyed, the burning of an entire block at Lock port, New York, the destruction of a large dwelling at Hoboken, New Jersey, by which two lives were lost, and several minor occurrences 9f a similar character. These disasters r6mind us of the im portance of always having property fully insured. The cost is but trifling in comparison with the great advantage gained, and the trouble of attending to the matter really amounts to nothing. There are scores of reliable insurance companies in all our cities, whose officers are seeking for business at all times, and at a trifling cost of time and money, a property-owner can• place be tween himself and possible ruin a guarantee which is as absolutely reliable as anything human can be. TILE STATE FINANCES The report of the State Treasurer of Pennsylvania will be found in to-day's paper. It makes a most favorable ex hibit, and shows that the revenue of the State grows so rapidly in excess of the expenses, that not only may the debt be steadily reduced, but some of the taxes may be dispensed with. Mr. Kem ble suggests that real estate may be ex empted from State taxation. If this is done, it will be good news to all the citi. zens, but eSpecially to those of Philadel phia, where the local tax is heavy. There are various suggestions in regard to taxing the capital of the national banks, the income of railroads (abolish ng the tonnage tax), - Szc., which are worthy of the consideration of the Legis lature. A S T CAR NUISANCE. The driers and conductors of street cars in this city are hourly violating the law by stopping their cars with the plat forms projecting over the crossing. This is done, not for a moment at 'a time merely, btt at night, when , the perfor mances at - the theatres are about over, cars stop for five, ten or more minutes, completely covering the crossings, and compelling pedestrians to go around them, which, in the present condition of the streets; is a dirty and ditiagreeable busine-e. At Broad and ,Walnut and 'Broad - and Sprupe, when the opera is over, and at Ninth and Walnut and Eighth tau]. Walinit, when the two theatres in that neighborhOod. are out, this nuisance may be observed every night. There is never a policeman at either place to make the ears move on, and the conductors presume upon the immunity they enjoy to he rude and im irp ,/, ..-: i .... 1 -, {54: ,:. , -.,./• !, , :::, ..,,''. .',, f .W :•.' • 1 ' i U.W.I ?. i 'ii 4 ; iil :. ~.:... : '..W_v e_ ;_r_ • .' s _.:.i 4 'IA ..,., , ,', ,: : tiAILLEVENING, nutaTo.,:,...samdaya 11A.,..-11111E SRLY ~..

This abuse can be easily stopped by, liaving a policeman, at each:such corner *hen the performances at the theatres are over. The programmes of the opei a last evening announced . Verdi's opera of Poliuto, with Mme. Zucchi as "Poliuto" and Massimiliani as "Palinto." It was a satisfaction, how ever, to find that the opera played was Donizetti's, and that Mme. Zucchi played "Paolina" and Massimiliani "Poliuto." "Severus" • was played by Ardavani and "Calisthenus" by Barili. This beautiful opera has never before been so well done in Philadelphia. The orchestra was par ticularly good, for Maretzek himself con ducted. The subordinate parts were well filled, and the chorus was excellent. But the great• singing and acting of Mme* Zucehi and Signor Massimiliani were the chief features of the performance. The lady has never appeared here to such advan tage. The music is exactly adapted to her voice, and she exhibited dramatic power that was worthy of the best lyric tragedi ennes that we have ever had in Philadel phia. Massimiliani sustained her admi rably, and the two shared the rapturous plaudits of a most delighted and enthusias tic audience. Mme. Zucchi was encored in her splendid cavatina in the first act. The duo in the last, "Al suon dell 'arpe angeliche," which, in itself, is common place enough, was sung with such fire and passion as to call dowft the house repeatedly and it too was encored. The opera was finely put upon the stage, and in every respect it gave unqualified delight. Lieut. Gen. Grant and Mrs. Grant, who had been down to Wilmington to General Wilson's wedding, came into the balcony during the first act; he was at once recognized and there was a slight outburst of applause. The audience, however, controlled them selves till the act was ended, when there were rousing cheers given, which he ac knowledged by modestly rising and bowing. This evening Auber's delightful comic opera of FP'a Diavolo will be produced. Miss Kellogg is particularly charming in the role of " Zerlina" in this opera. Mazzoleni will make a noble " Fra Diavolo" and Bellini's " Lord Rockburg" (the " Lord Ailcash" of the English version) is one of the best spe cimens of comic acting and singing that we have ever had. The other parts are well cast, and a particularly fine performance may be confidently expected. Ernani is an nounced for to-morrow, and L'Africaine for Saturday evening. There were no books of the opera for sale last evening at the Academy. Those who would like to be sure of having them should get them beforehand at the music store of Mr.Trum pler,Seventh and Chestnut streets. He has the librettos -of all, handsomely printed.
