EVENING BULLETIN
TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 13, 1866.
BR. BANCROFT'S ORA I TION.
If we are not greatly disappointed
with Mr. Bancroft's oration, it is because
we did not expect much. Mr. Bancroft
is a great historian, but he is no orator,
and it was as unreasonablelto demand a
finished oration from him as it would be
to ask an architect to build a railroad, or
a watchmaker to construct a steam
engine. "Men do not gather grapes
from thorns, nor figs from thistles," and
we are therefore not surprised at the
result of Mr. Bancroft's attempt to pro
nounce a eulogy upon th ,. character of
Abraham Lincoln.
We do not purpose any extended criti
cism of the oration. It iS very evident
that Mr. Bancroft digestl slowly, and
that he has hurriedly thrown together a
mass of undigested and almost indiges
tible matter, under the pressure of a want
of time either to arrange or condenQe it
into order and shape. As Icold as Ever
ett,without any of his beauty of diction,
his taste or his tact; as elaborate as
Eumneh with none of hiS elegant and
scholarly finish; as discursive as George
Francis Train, without a spark of his
sash or fire, Mr. Bancroft' as given us a
disquisition upon "things in general,"
instead of a eulogium upon Abraham
:Lincoln. Out of nine sold columns of
the BUZLETIN, two-third of a column
are devoted to the character of Mr. Lin
coln, and this is discussed without the
slightest enthusiasm or e oquenco. If
- man ever had a theme o an audience
calculated to inspire him Mr. Bancroft
had. That he should ave failed to
i)
_meet the subject and the' cession is no
fault of his, but only the natural result
-of that want of judgment which induced
the Congressional Committee to entrust
such a work to the hands of one whose
training, habits of mind, and life-long
pursuits have necessarily unfitted him
to perform it.
The amount and varie4 of irrelevant
topics which Mr. Bancroft thought it
proper to engraft upon the Isubj ect-proper,
of his oration, are verb remarkable.
The discovery of America; the whole
slavery question from the beginning;
the Revolution; the Dred Scott Decision;
Great Britain; France; he Pope; the
Monroe Doctrine; Russiaand China; all
t
these and more, are he: ped together,
and here and there, throu!h the crevices
of the mass, we catch
Abraham;Lincoln, and t
of him again as we go del •
the politics of the coun
world at large.
The most -remarkable
liancroft's oration, and
will be most severely cri i
is his discussion of Britis
affairs. Amongst, the il l
and distinguished of the
was the Diplomatic Corp:
wer@ prOent, in full fo,
costume, to do honor to the memory of
Abraham Lincoln, and we can easily
imagine the effect which musk have
been produced upon the minds of the
British and. French Legations by the
elaborate denunciation of their respective
countries, at such a time and under
such circumstances. All that Mr. Ban
croft said was perfectly true, and we
heartily endorse every word of it; but
the truth is not always to be spoken,and
we cannot but feel- that good taste de
manded the careful, exclusion of every
word that could offend those who were,
for the time, the guests of the nation.
Thelparallel run between Lincoln and
Pal erston was particularly out of place
at such a time, and must have left any
thing but a pleasant impression upon at
least one portion of the audience.
We have not desired to be hypercriti
cal upon this subject,but only to express
our regret that the Committee of Con
gress should not have selected some one
better qualified for this particular occa
sion. Mr. Bancroft is great in his own
field of literature, but has never pro
fessed or desired to be an orator. It is
true that our race of great orators has, to
a great extent, passed away; but we still
have many men who, under the inspir
ation of such a theme, would have
thrilled their audience and the whole
country with an eloquence worthy of the
great occasion which called it forth.
But little more than thirty years ago
Stephen Girard commenced the im
provement of his lot bounded by Chest
nut, Market, Eleventh and Twelfth
streets. He did not live to finish the
work which he saw begun; but he was
far-sighted, and he knew that dwellings
would be in demand as far west as
Twelfth street. In 1834, in which year,
if we mistake not, the buildings now
known as Girard Row were commenced,
there were a few dwellings even further
west than this famous block; but they
were few and far between. The square
upon which the Girard buildings have
since been located war, an enclosed, un
improved space with the exception of a
few structures on Market street; and
with its tall forest trees, and its rough
board fence, it presented an appearance
that was at once primitive and rude.
Opposite the square, on Chestnut street,
dwellings were rare and gaps were plen
tiful. Below Tenth street, on Chestnut,
there was a lumber-yard; and the spot
where the Continental Hotel no w stands
was an open space where a cow grazed
comfortably, and probably bestowed
more thought (while chewing the cud
of reflection) on her snug quarters and
the excellence of her pasturage than upon
the westward progress of the town•
Where the Girard House now stands
there were some ancient mansions that
had been built much as country houses
are now erected on the verge of Dela
ware and Montgomery counties, in the
expectation that the city would grow up
to them, and with but little thought that
they would one day be left far inside the
pale of local civilization.
We have been led into these observa
tions by the fact that the city authori
ties are now altering some of the dwell
ings in Girard Row into stores, and that
as soon as the leases of the remaining
tenants expire all the buildings will be
converted into places of business. The
city authorities in this revolution do not
move in advance of the necessities of the
times, for the march of trade has already
overleaped this spot. City Councils are
only following in its wake, and they are
not taking the lead in the way of ex
tending business along the line of the
fashionable thoroughfare.
While Commerce is thus pushing its
way towards the Schuylkill, Mammon
and Mercury are treading close upon its
heels. Third street and its neighbor
hood will not hold all the money-dealing
establishments of the town; nor can
they be restrained from over-running
the ancient westward bounds fixed by
the Bank of the United States and the
Farmers' and Mechanics' Bank. We
know of a banking-institution that is
about being located on Chestnut street,
west of Eighth; and we hear of some
others that are ( seeking locations but a
little further east on the same street.
The Press (we use the term in its gen
eral significance) is keeping pace with
the progress of the times. Forney's
Press has secured a permanent local habi
tati©n •at the corner of Chestnut and
Seventh streets. The Ledger is anxious
to get possession of its fine property at
the southwest corner of Sixth and Chest
nut streets, with a view to moving
westward; while the BULLETIN casts a
wistful eye forward to the good time
time speedily coming, when favoring
weather, and Mr. Crump, the builder,
will permit it to settle comfortably dom.':
under its own vine and fig-tree on Chest
nut street, about Sixth.
In old times newspapers used tcNbe
published in the extreme eastern part of
the city alone. Mr. Andrew Bradford
published his Mercury first in Front
street, and afterwards in Second street..
Franklin made a big stride when he
went to Market street above Third, and
old Mr. Poulson published his Advertiser
on Chestnut street, near Third. Com
ing down to a later generation of news
papers, the Sentinel was published in
Walnut street, below Second; the
United States Gazette in Dock street,
below Walnut; the Inquirer was for a
long time on Second street, below Chest
nut; the National Gazette and the Phil
adelphia Gazette were in the same
neighborhood, and the Ledger flourished
for a season at the corner of Second and
Dock streets.
We do not feel in the least degree like
journalistic Daniel Boones in our in
tended move westward. We feel that
we will only keep pace with the growth
of the city and the consequent shifting

PROTECTION-.--JUDGE 2/ELEM . 'S
SPEECH.
The present session of Congress has
been signalized by many very able
speeches on the great questions of the
day, but by none more thoroughly pro
found and logical than a recent oration
by Hon. Wm. D. Kelley, representative
from the Fourth District of this com
monwealth. Judge Kelley's subject was
"Protection to American Industry,! , and
he discussed it not merely oratorically,
but with an exhaustive power which
showed that his views were the mature
result of years of thought and labor in
this direction. He proved how England
owed her greatness to ProtectiOn, and
how all countries which are cursed with
free trade become impoverished. He
showed that the true greatness of Ame
rica was inseparably connected with a
just and equitable tariff, and that the
prostrate condition of the South to-day
was greatly owing to Southern ideas of
free trade. He maintained that in the
'end protection cheapens goods, encour
ages healthy immigration,' and builds
up every branch of legitimate business.
Judge Kelley said : •
"To gratify our patriotic desires we need
not resort to prohibitory duties. We can
nationalize policy by relieving from duty
tea, coffee and any raw material which we
do not produce, but which enters into our
manufactures or arts. I would give the
wool-growers protection, but would stimu
late the manufacture of carpets, and in
crease the demand for American wool by
admitting flee of duty those low grades
which we do not produce; and would lay
light duties on those articles in the manu
facture of which machinery has been per
fected and large capitals have been accumu
lated, especially where the original cost of
the machinery hasbeen returned in profits;
and would make them heavier and heaviest
upon those branches of industry which are
most feeble but give assurance of ultimate
success. When we do this our country will
cease to be a mere agglomeration of sec
tions, and we will be a national people,
homogeneous in our interests by reason of
their immense inversity. Such, sir, is my
plan for enforcing the Monroe doctrine, ac
quiring Canada, paying the national dent,
and by relieving the South of its embar
eassment, re cementing the shattered
Union. The poor whites of the South must
be weaned from the rifle, net and line, by
the inducements of well-rewarded indus
try. Their idle wives and children may
thus be brought to habits 01 order, method
and industry, and in a few years we shall
cease to remember that in this nineteenth
century, and under our republican govern
went, there were, for several decades, mil
lions of people tending to barbarism."
We regret that our space will not
permit copious extracts from this sig
nally able and convincing address, and
will close by urging its perusal on all of
our readers who may be favored with a
copy.
UNCLE SAX'S PRO:TING BILL.
The Government spends a vast amount
of money unnecessarily in printing.
The "Public Documents" are a heavy
item of expenditure, and the Govern
ment advertising is not only costly, but
in many cases it is disposed of in a way
where it is entirely useless. The New
York Tribune, in an article commending
Mr. Laflin, Chairman of the House
Committee on Printing, for his effurts to
cut down the expenses, says:
"While he has the knife in hand let him
cut deep. We do not save so much expense
by cutting down the number of copies as by
not publishing the book. When a book is
in type the printing is a secondary expense.
Then we have the Government advertising.
This is a dreadful abuse. Mr. Latlin should
offer a resolution, directing the heads of each
Department to report how much has been
paid to the different newspapers in Wash
)ngton for public advertising. It will be
found, we think, that we have beggars who
are not on the pension list, and that feeble
editors, without influence, circulation or
character, are supported in this way. Go
vernment must do business. Let it be done
in a business way. Books must be printed.
Print only the books that are necessary.
Advertisements must go into newspapers.
Select those of large circulation. But stop
this source of demoralization, corrupting
and enervating the press, paying editors to
do the work of 'Boots' in an English inn.
The Government makes a double mistake.
The journals bought are not worth the pur
chase money, and its advertisements are
never read."
The general cry of the people being for
retrenchment, we hope that in this
matter of the Government printing and
advertising it will begin at once. The
war made an immense amount of both
necessary, but a great deal of the adver
tising was done in papers of little circu
lation. Now, at least, this might be
stopped entirely, and as for the °public
printing, it ought, in these peace tithes,
to be cut down at least to the average
cost of the few years before the war; for
it was even then unnecessarily large.
MAIL DEL hLYS.
On Saturday evening a package was
mailed at Washington City for this
office, containing advance copies of Mr.
Bancroft's oration. Our correspondent
telegraphed us of the fact, but up to this
time it has not reached us. Fortunately
other copies of the document were re- .
ceived through another channel. But
this circumstance is only an illustration
of whatis continually occurring. Letters
from Washington rarely reach their
destination in proper time, and 'docu
ments are usually two or three days, and
sometimes a whole week, in going from
the hands of the person mailing them to
those of the person for whom they are
intended. Yet the two cities are only
six hours apart. The fault may be at
Washington, or it may be here; but in
either case it ought to be corrected. The
delay in the distribution of mail matter
in the Philadelphia of f ice, however, is
one that might easily be corrected; but
we have givei up all hope of it. Piles
of newspapers that arrive by the evening
mails lie all night on a table, and the
clerks, at their leisure, or whenever it is
ILADELPHIA, TUESDAY, FE
agreeable to themithe- -next -morning,
proceed to distribute them' in the boxes.
It is rare to find a New York or a Wash
ington evening paper in its owner's box
until about twelve hours after it is re
ceived. Papers during the daytime fare
g little better,but there is an unnecessary
delay also in distributing them. The
public and the press have borne all this
patiently for a long time; but if they
would remonstrate or appeal for a reform,
perhaps one might be effected.
Tn IRVING PICTURE.—A. proof copy of
the large and elegant engraving repre
senting Washington Irving and his friends
at Sunny Side, has been handed to us by
Miss Doolittle, who is the agent for Phila
delphia subscriptions, and whose head
quarters are at the store of Mr. T. B. Pugh,
corner of Sixth and Chestnut streets. It
represents Prescott, Bryant, Longfellow,
Hawthorne, Emerson, Holmes, Cooper,
Willis, Halleck, Paulding, Bancroft, Simms,
Kennedy and Tuckerman, all nicely
grouped, with Irving in the midst. The
original design was by Darley; it was
painted in oil by Schussele, and it has been
engraved in London in the best style. The
print is altogether most interesting as a
national picture, and valuable as a work of
art. It will be furnished to subscribers
only, and those who wish to procure it
Should call on Miss Doolittle without delay.
