MARCH 2. 1866 SOUTHERN LOY All the indications seem to be that when we get the report of the Recon struction Committee the country will be well satisfied that Congress is acting wisely in its postponement of the ad mission of the Southern representatives. From all quarters of the South we have intelligence that shows conclusively that a large proportion of the Southern people are, as yet, unfit to resume the responsibilities of government. Out rages upon freedmen and Northerners are painfully frequent, and by numerous official reports the opinion is expressed that the presence of military forces is absolutely essential, not only for the or dinary preservation a the peace, but for the safety of life itself. Secret rebel organizations exist whose purpose is to e prevent the settlement of Northern men Ain the South, and even in Tennessee we know that many Union men do not con sider their lives safe outside of the towns and eitieg. Mr. Bipgham's statement in Congress on Monday was probably not at all exaggerated. He declared that "even in Tennessee the ratio of rebels to loyal people was three to one, and Ten nessee was in that respect the best of the eleven seceded States. He undertook to say that no 'report which might be made by that committee would fail to disclose the fact that a large majority of the people of Tennessee had declared them selves sworn enemies of the State and of the nation." But whether this statement be right or wrong -as to its precise proportions in regard to Tennessee, the case of the .States which were in open rebellion to the last is clear enough. The well-meaut policy of the Government has failed • thus far to produce any real restora tion of a loyal spirit. We always sup posed that it would fail. We have had too many and too bitter proofs of the „keep-seated disloyalty of the people of those States, to permit ourselves to be- jieve that a nation of really truly loyal citizens could be born in a day. The "days of miracles are past, and what we -have before us in the way. of reconstruc 'tkn of the shattered elements of our Nationakfunity 'is a process of a slower sort. The Southern people are starting in a new career. Proud, self-willed and worse than ignorant, because wrongly taught, they are-not the most promising of pupils. Every principle of education recognizes the fact that the pupil who has to learn bad teachings will advance more slowly than the one who is wholly ignorant, and the principle holds good in the case of Southern reconstruction. Under the pernicious teachings of the Southern leaders for fifty years past, , generation after generation has grown •up imbued with notions of civil and • social relations which cannot po3sibly - exist under the new order of things. Tim lessons of the war have been quite lost upon a large portion of our Southern brethren, and as the first smart of defeat $ 4- Alegins to die away, the old arrogant "V, spirit creeps out again and the old lustof empire begins to assert itself. We wish we could see a different con- Ldition of things at the South. We wish we could see some of that honest frater nal spirit exhibited there, which would inspire the confidence of the people of -- the North. The hostile feeling that now exists is perhaps natural and not to ttkie wondered at, but it will not last for -ever.- Time and trade, the school-master and the NOrthernn, farmer, will work wonders at . the South. These will be ':The real reconstructors and their work `will be radical and permanent. A hastily patchethup reconstruction now will break out again into ugly - sores and much of the old work will need to be done over again. Patience, wisdom and Sul:mess in Congress now will be abun "dautly rewarded in the future of our opartion country. PEACE. A. \ Peace Convention is to be held at Boston on the fourteenth day of the present month. Itsobject is to organize a new effort against theisystem of wars., Peace conventions are nothing ne t w. They have met in different pails of the world, time almost out of mind. Yet wars have taken place just the same, and just so_wars will continue to take place so long as acts of cruelty and wrong are committed, so long as nations are oppressive and unjust, so long as rulers are ambitious, so long as there are wrongs to be redressed and rights to be maintained, and, in short, so long as men continue to be actuated by the mo tives and passions of men. When the resolves of a convention can stop the flow of Niagara, calm the restless ocean, or change the nature of mankind, peace conventions may accomplish something; but until these things can be brought about the peace delegates might as well stay at home and attend to more profita ble pursuits. When the millenium comes around and the lion and the lamb lie down together, and swords are beaten into plough-shares and spears into prun ing-hooks, then peace conventions will have some show of attaining success in their efforts to do away with wars; but then there will be no necessity for their exertions, for the grand result will have come around without their aid. Peace is a very excellent thing, and all good men must be its advocates, when it can be secured without too great a cost; but wars are often an inevitable necessity. and sometimes peace can only be had through war. War came in with our first parents; it has continued through each successive generation, and there will be wars and rumors of wars down to the "crack of doom," unless the pas sions and motives of men change. Boston must have its "notion," however, and we suppose it might as well amuse itself in holding a Peace Convention as in any other way; but we greatly doubt whether the deliberations of the conven tion will put Chile, Peru and Spain in a good humor with each other; quiet the Indians, reconcile Paraguay to Brasil, make the Mexicans content with the rule of Maximilian, render Louis Napo leon less ambitious or less unscrupulous or last, but not least, calm the pexturbtd spirits of an O'Mahony or a Roberts. We fancy that it require a more po tent fiat-iron than \this Down East Peace Convention to smoothe the wrinkled front of grim-visaged war. But, we re peat, we have no objections to their try ing the experiment. PECCATIMUS An article from a Pittsburgh paper appeared in the BULLETIN the other day, which represented a certain book, owned by a certain person in the Western part of this State, as being "theoldest printed book in America." The date of it was 1631. The inadvertence which suffered such a pretension to receive even a quasi indorsement in these columns has been rightly punished. We are overwhelmed with missiles and missals from bibliophiles and antiquaries, each one of whom owns, or knows some one who owns, a book older than each one of the others ever heard of. The antiquity of printed books seems likely to be traced far into the dark ages, if we only give our readers and correspondents full swing and encourage them to make re searches. The spirits of ancient printers, an cient printers' devils, and printers' an cient devils seem to have been perturbed by the insolent claim of the Western Pennsylvanian. It is they that are visit ing us and harrassing us in the persons of the living correspondents, for having, through an unfortunate freak of the scissors, libelled the antique volumes hat they, their ancestors and their pos terity printed. Shades of Gutenberg, Faust, Elzevir, Aldus and Caxton, be appeased! The offence was accidental, and we had no idea of disturbing you in your eternal repose. We cry for mercy. We are prepared to acknowledge an an tiquity for types to any required amount. Nott and Gliddon wrote about "Types of Mankind" existing before the Mosaic date of the creation, and we believe Nott, though we may doubt Gliddon. If this is not enough, or enough Nott, we are ready to admit prints of whales as exist ing in fossils of the primeval period, or before the prime evil. After this we do not want to heir of any books of such an extremely modern period as the fif teenth century of the Christian era. If any one has a volume printed in black letter in the dark ages, that belonged to the Black Prince, or any public prints of that time, except the prince of darkness himself, we may give him a hearing. But till then, we beg for peace, and want to be reconstructed. CLEANSING THE CI EY The City Councils have passed finally the ordinance authorizing the Mayor to contract for the cleansing of the streets of this city. The rather pungent resolu tions of the Board of Health, on the sub ject, were not regarded by Select Council a,t very respectful, and they were re turned to the Board. But the representa tions made doubtless had their effect, and the ordinance from the Common Council was passed by the Select Coun cil, without amendment. So there is a prospect that the streets will be cleansed thoroughly before the cholera comes. It is a singular fact that in a great city like Philadelphia there should be no established and permanent system for keening the streets clean. Every year there has to be new and special legislation, under which the city is put, for a time, in a condition of tolerable cleanliness. But in a few months neg lect is perceptible. The accumulations THE DAILY. EVENING BULLETIN f FRIDA.Y, MARCH:2; .1.86. of the winter are allowed to lie turbed until they begia to ferment and emit foul odors, and then, under the pressure of public .sentiment, or Board of Health resolutions, or dread of a pes tilence, a new ordinance is passed, and the streets are once_mbra cleaned. There is no reason why there should not be a reform in this business. There is no reason why Philadelphia should not have an established system, under which the streets can be kept constantly clean; as are those of Paris, London, and other great European cities. We should not be content with spasms of purification, to be succeeded by long periods of filthi ness. Whoever will devise a good plan for keeping the streets always clean, even if it costs a good deal of money, will be a great public benefactor. . Certain citizens have rentonsirated against the proposed improvement of Broad street, by the removal of the rail roads, &c., and have submitted a series of objections to it. We shall publish to morrow a reply to their protest,in which each of the objections is considered separately. The answer is complete, and it will be found very interesting to all those who are anxious to have our great central avenue made an ornament to the city. GERMAN OPERA: There was a very large audience and a very charming performance at the Academy last evening. Martha was played, Mr. Habelmann taking, for the first time in this city, the part of I' Lionel," in which we have never seen his equal. Mme. Johannsen,Mlle. Dziuba, Mr. Weinlich and the other artists acquitted themselves well. An act of La Davie Blanche was also played, in which Hbealmann's " Robin Adair" delighted the audience as usual. This evening Robert le Diable, will be produced with an excellent cast. To-morrow afternoon Fra Diuvolo, which produced such a sensation on Tuesday evening, will be repeated. MESSRS.
