TOWER HALL, NO. 518 Market street, BENNETT dc 00. THE SCARECROW. One morning sly, ere scarce the sky The sun began to tinge, I started out, intent to scout The woods which round did fringe The stood expanse of ripening grain, latch grew before me on a plain. When on said plain of ripening grain, Suspended by a pole, Garments quite new did meet my view, Upon a rising knoll, Which proved a snit of bad style clothes, Placed there to frighten off the crows. Whilein the field which there did yield, Its crop of yellow corn, . With radiant smile and naacseD in wrras, Toward me came that morn, A man whose manner plainly told That lie in fee the farm did hold. Said I, my friend, while I extend, With friendliness my hand; 'spoSe that you, if Ijudge gm*, Arelowner of this land. And as his bright blue eye did glow, He qtdck replied, yes, sir, that's so, "that's so," I'd like to know, Why you have used wsw clothes To dear a pole upon a knoll, To frighten off the crows. For it to me doth strange appear, That any man should act so queer. Well, now, said he, speaking to me, It may seem quite absurd; But the suit there I bought to wear, Ere of the ..Sysis" rd heard; But aS my neighbors had, I found. Been dressing there for miles around, I felt more proud and joined the crowd Then moving to that mart, And now appear ia this suit here, So perfect in each part. A nd decked the man of straw with those, That he might frighten off the crows. aSr The ICOM PRIMES at which fins fashionable ready mule Ciothing is soid, astonish alt who are so fortunate as to purchase at the tiTAR cLOTHENG XIIPORri7II, 09 VILEST -NUT EN.RILLT, 51G3i 4 111. 11 PZ13.11.7 di W.

In alluding to the great expenditure of money in printing public documents, especial allusion might have been made to the documents that come from the Agricultural Department. Several mem bers of Congress have lately favored us with copies of a big volume, of nearly 700 pages, which is called the " Report of the Commissioner of Agriculture for 1864." It has bad a long period of ges- tation—thirteen months—and we do no think that it was worth the labor, either to the bureau of agriculture or to the nation. One might almost as wisely hunt up an agricultural report among the ruins of Pompeii, and have it trans lated and printed at the Government expense. The report proper, of Commissioner Newton, fills only twelve pages. But he appends a mass of reports and letters from all parts of the world and on nearly every conceivable subject. If we were to write a long essay on Newspapers and send it to the agricultural bureau, it would have a pretty fair chance •of coming out in one of the annual reports, and probably with some pretty wood cuts. One Mr. West, of Georg4tow'n indeed, who wrote a long and pleasant article on Fresh and Salt water Aquaria, has had the , good fortune to have it printed in the Report, and the important relation of these nice toys to agriculture is thus officially established. Mr. West quotes poetry and makes altogether a lively contribution to Friend Newton's annual. But does the appropriation of money for the Agricultural Bureau con template the printing of pretty maga zine articles about aquaria? Fully three fourths of the contents of this volume might have been left out, and the world • would have been no les"gmwise. Of this big and costly volume no less than one hundred and sixty-four thou sand volumes were printed. If one thousand of them should be read thor oughly, it will be a wonder. The other hundred and sixty-three thousand, after being carried at Uncle Sam's expense all over the Union, will lie on the desks of editors, like. ours, waiting for some besotted or insane creature to carry them off: or they will be stowed away in dark cellars, garrets or closets, or will,find their way to the grocers for wrapping paper, or to the paper makers to be ground up and made into . ..new paper to be used for new agricultural reports, which:will, in their turn, have the same fate. We shall probably, in about another year, be favored with a sight of thp'report fot 1865, printed on paper made of the pulp of the identical report that is now before us. The propOsed appropriation. fol the Agricultural Department, for the next fiscal year, is $149,100. This does not include the printing of the report. That will come under the expenses of public printing, the appropriation for which is $1,268,208. This amount could, we really believe, be cut down one half, and the public would not feel any deprivation. Therg - are cords upon 'cords of Agricultural Reports, Patent Office Reports and other docu ments that no one ever looks into. Why should there be a waste of at least half a million of dollars for printing a super fluous quantity of such rubbish? Practi cal farmers, for whom the Agricultural Reports are:intended,can make little use of them. Most of them, who have any intelligence, subscribe for a good agri cultural weekly newspaper, and thus keep themselves posted on the progress of agriculture. A' stale volume of essays and reports is of no use to them, and a check ought to be put upon the extrava gance of printing them. Paper is dear; the Government has to pay a great deal for that on which it prints the bonds with which it pays its printing and other bills. Why should it help 'to keep up the price for individual consumers by wasting so much in useless Agricultural, Patent Qfrace and other ,public docu ments? Philadelphia used to be a model city. Well paved, well lighted, well cleaned, well watered, Philadelphia was the pride of her citizens and the admiration of such portions of the "rest of man kind" as were privileged to sojourn with in her borders. Our Waterworks were the simplest and most efficient; our Gas Works the largest and the best in the country. The progresswhich was made in raising Philadelphia to the first rank of American cities was steady and rapid, and in no part of the United States could the same amount of comfort in living be enjoyed for the same expenditure of money. But this progress has been gra dually arrested. Carelessness and cor ruption, official indifference and politi cal intrigue have encroached step by step upon many of the nepartments of public service, until Philadelphia is lit tle, if any, better than New York, and growing worse every day. Just now there is a very large screw loose in the Gas Department, and in more senses than one, the public needs light. We need material light. The Gas Committee have lately been doctor ing the street lamps, and have succeeded so well, that they have reduced the light to a degree of illuminationimuch below that of the old oil lamps. Even this feeble attempt to render the dark ness visible is left apparently to the convenience of irresponsible lamp lighters, who make their rounds very much at their own pleasure. In the depth of winter, and at a time when there is unusual danger from lawlessness and depredation, the light, which should have been, if possible, increased, has been diminished,until one might almost think that we were living in those happy days of merry England, a hun dred years ago, when gentlemen took to the road for their amusement, and high way robbery was deemedan exhilarating and fashionable pursuit. We do not suppose that the gentlemen of our Gas Committees are directly concerned in garroting or robbing us, but they are certainly doing good service to those who do live by such evil practices. If this were the whole evil, it would be bad enough, but it is only one feature of it. We are not only deprived of our needful supply of light, but we are made to pay for doing without it. On every side we hear the complaint of small gas light and large gas bills. As the light Seventh iiiidChentnnt. ETIN . diminishes, the bills increase, and a long suffering public is waxingvery impatient to know the reason why. Scientific me* tell us that the quality of the gas is 'inferior to anything ever produced during Mr. Cresson's superintendence of the Gas Works, and that consequently we are compelled to use double the quantity to produce the same amount of light. And this is abundantly proved by reference to the consumption of gas in numerous large establishments. From several of these we have received statements that, with no increase of burners or in the time of consumption, their bills have fully doubled within the last few months. With all the burdens that our community have to bear and do cheerfully bear, it is hard to have a tax like this added. Can we not have more LIGHT WANTED, light? Light in our dark streets, and light upon the mysterious increase of our gas bills. At present rates candles and kerosene are a great deal brighter and cheaper than the product of the much vaunted Gas Works of Philadelphia. THE WORKHOUSE QUESTION IN ENG LAND. Some time since a daring editor or reporter of the London Pall Mall Gazette clothed himself in rags and presented himself at the, door of a London Workhduse. He asked for a night's lodging as a "casual," and being admitted, passed a dismal night in a shed, together with about fifty forlorn wretches, some of whom were decent, but the great majority being the vilest of the scum of the metropolis. He was treated to a bath before retiring, and his clothes, to the last stitch, were taken from him, and in order to reach his strawbed he had to cross an open yard in bare feet, with nothing but a rug on him! As the night was diear and cold this must have been a pleasant journey. During almost the entiro night the shed was a scene of confusion, blasphemy and obscenity mingling in horrid accord. If the narrative is true it shows a shocking state of affairs in the London workhouses, particularly as the one visited was said to be a favorable specimen. A Workhouse inspector has published a card, stating that the use of the shed was only temporaxy, and that the accommodations generally were much THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN : PHILADELPHIA, - IRIDAY-, FEBRUARY 16, -1866. better; but the i3entiment ' of - Londoners generally is to the effect that the abuses described do exist. A letter from En gland, of recent date, says that it is Tu.- mored the author of the heroic visit to the Workhouse, and of the wonderful sketch and picture which have produced almost a revolution, is neither—as has been freely conjectured—Mr. Charles Dick ens, Mr. Anthony Trollope, or Mr. Kingsley, but a young man hitherto unknown to fame, albeit the writer of some clever articles, whose name` is Greenwood. He is the younger brother of a Mr. Greenwood well known in literary circles as a potent authority in the publishing firm of Smith, Elder & Co., and the reputed editor of the Pall Mall Gazelle. COKER'S PARLOR CONCERT.—The large drawing-rooms of one of our largest Chest nut street residences were crowded last night with a select and fashionable audi ence, who enjoyed the treat of a semi. private concert by Master Richard Coker. This astonishing young vocalist was in fine voice and executed the most difficult and trying passages of his various pieces in such admirable style and with such genuine enthusiasm as to surprise and delight all who heard him. His performances of "Robert, toi que faimei" "// Bacio," and Carlotta Patti's song "Dania di gioja," are wonders of artistic skill and expression, which render it very difficult to realize that one is listening to a boy of fourteen and not to a prima donna of the Italian Opera. He also gave the splendid soprano solo from "Elijah," "Hear ye, Israel," mastering its difficulties with the utmost apparent ease, while into his two ballads, "The First Violet," and "Come live with me," he threw an arch playfulness that _worked terrible - havoc amongst the younger and susceptible part of his audience. Master Richard was admirably supported by Mr. E. Giles of New York, who sang two capital humorous songs in fine style, Mr. Um stead, who gave "Sleep Well," and "Tar Star of Glengary," with very good effect, and Mr. I. L. Rice, our young pianist, who is so rapidly rising into celebrity by hi:, brilliant playing. Mr. J. A. Getze accom panied Master Coker, with one of the "Bradbury Square Grands," the fine tone, of which were greatly admired by the audience. We heartily endorse the suggestion o: one of our morning contemporaries, tha. Master Coker should give a farewell c cert at the Foyer of the Academy, before leaving for Europe, which he does ou the 24th instant. It will probably be the last opportunity for us to hear him, as hi soprano voice cannot be expected to las beyond the present year, and be would therefore be sure of a very fall house and a Very warm welcome.
