TE.NING BULLETIN. ,A.TIYRDA.Y, MARCH 24, 1866 HONORABLE STOCK FON. It was decided in the Senate, yester day, that Mr. John P. Stockton is-one of the "Honorables" of that body. • In fact Mr. Stockton decided it himself, and who should know about it better than he? Grave doubts were entertained as to 'the legality of his election, and Mr. Stockton very properly declined to enter the jury -box, or to sit in judgment upon his own case, until it was suddenly re vealed to him that his head was totter ing on his shoulders, and that he was about to be retired to the shades of New Jersey by a tie vote. Straightway the instincts of his party were aroused, and Without a blush, so far as we can gather from the telegraphic report, he recorded his vote for 'himself, and became an "Honorable" itidue form of law. The abstract question of Mr. Stock ton's election was a fair ground of differ ence, and therefore we see that several goodUnion - Senators showed their inde pendence by voting in favor of Mr. Stockton's admission, This liberty of independent action which we, not un frequently, see exercised by the Union side of the house, is not allowed in the ranks of the Democratic faithful, and therefore that interesting little body went as usual in a unit on the party question. It is a convenient rule of dis pipline, and saves these honorable gen tlemen a deal of thinking. We only make the point involved by the delicate good taste of Mr. Stockton in voting himself into the - Senate, where his right to a seat was, to say the least, so ex ceedingly doubtful. BROAD STREET. The bill for the improvement of Broad street, by removing the railroad tracks, has now passed both houses of the Leg islature, by large taajorities. tThe op , position to it, although not very ex . tended, was very, strenuous. But the wishes of the vast, majority of the peo ple, and the forthal and earnest demand of the City Councils, prevailed, and we thank the two Horses for one of the best pieces of legislation, in which Philadel phia is especially concerned, that they hail) accorded us since the consolidation act was passed. By the provisions of the act, ample time is afforded to all coal dealers, and oth.ers doing business re quiring freightrailroads to moveto other and more convenient localities. But by the end of three years, at farthest, we expect to see the rails wholly removed, the pavement very much improved, and new and splendid public and private buildings going up all along this mag imitleent street. Then, all good citizens, even those who opposed the passage of the bill, will acknowledge that they were wrong. and that they, in common with the rest of the community, are gainers by the change. TELE BIirILDING SEASON. Despite the demand . 'for stores and dwellings li there are comparatively but few heavy buildib'g operations in pro gress. There are several large business structures in progress or projected, and some operations are going forward in the way of improving new sections of the city by the erection of dwellings; but all that is doing in this line is in a small and feeble way, when the wants of the community in respect to new stores, a d more numerous houses for the peo e, are taken into consideration. e reasons for This condition of things are obvious. The high cost of material; the heavy rates of compensation demanded by mechanics; the uncertainty caused by constant agitations among working people concerning wages and the hours of labor; and last, but 4not least, the onerous burthens imposed by municipal taxation being levied almost exclusively upon real estate, are among the print cipal reasons why building opeFations are not fully up to the demands of the season. There will be but few stores or dwellings erected this spring as mere in vestments or for speculative ' purposes. Capitalists generally believe they can use their means more profitably in other channels: the owners of property that needs modernizing, put off their hrt. around; until cheaper times come around; and where changes are impera, tively demanded, property holders con tent themselves with altering their old buildings instead of demolishiaig them in toto, TO replacing them vilts new structures. It would be well for mechanics to look at things as they are, and to reflect whether by resisting the downwardten dency of prices, as regards their own wages, they are , not injuring themselves by bringing about enforced idleness, keeping up rents to their own directand indirect disadvantage, and retarding the prosperity of the community of which they are membersi These things are worth thinking !About. As regards the policy of levying mu nicipal taxes upon real estate alone, we have frequently given our opinion and we have nothing to add to our oft re peated expressions of a conviction of the unfairness and injustice of the system. MR. 'WAVY ON THE WAR p.m'. The Democratic politicians being hard up for orators for the Connecticut campaign, they have sent for Hon. Richard Vaux, who, somehow or other, has been quietly dropped by the Fenians. So he has gone to make speeches in the nutmeg State, carrying a head filled with solid chunks of wisdom, and covered with ambrosial curls. When he shakes his curls, and lil rls out wis dom to the nutmegs, there will be Con sternation in the ranks of the Republi cans. Speaking of Vaux,his magitificent style is missing from,,the annual report of the BOard of Direct Ors of Girard Col. lege, this year. Mr. Charles E. Lei, having been elected President, we hay/ a plain, well written, scholarly and sen sible report,which is refreshing after the long series of bombastic and senseless annuals that the' Girard Estate had to print during the Presidency of Mr. Vaux. He ought to read these reports to the Connecticut Democracy. They would throw as much light on the reconstruction question as they ever did on anything else. Death of General Williams. The telegraph announces the death of Brevet Major-General Seth Williams, at his brother's residence, in Boston. General Williams was a native of Maine, and gra duated at West Point in 1842. He served with much distinction in the Mexican war, and was brevetted captain for gallant con duet at Cerro Gordo. , After that war he was assigned to the Adjutant-General's office, and upon the breaking out of the rebellion was appointed Adjutant-General of General McClellan's staff, a post which he filled with great ability throughout McClellan's career. General 'Williams's services were too valuable to be disnOnsed with, and he re mained as chief of staff of the army of the Potomac, through its various mutations until the close of the war. His last assign ment was to General Meade's staff in this Department, but failing health had ,pre vented his entering'actively upon his new duties. General Williams was not only a gallant and able soldier, but was distinguished for a modest amiability that made him one of the most popular officers in the army. An over-taxed brain has suc,cumbed under the pressure of protracted official duties, and another distinguished name is added to the long list of the, victims' of the war. Hifi death will be mourned by a host of friends who had learned to love him for his rare soldierly and personal qualities. He was fortyfour years of age at the time of his death. Pike's Opera House. In our hurriedly written note to 'the tele graphic despatch published in: the BIILLE- Txx yesterday, concerning the burning of Pike's Opera House, in Cincinnati, we fell into, the error of confounding Pike's Opera House with Smith t Nixon's Hall. The writer of the note to the despatch has not been in Cincinnati since the Opera House was built, and he got the two institutions mixed up together. He discovered his error almost as soon as it was made, but it was too late to correct it.. Such mistakes will occur in -the best regulated newspaper .offices.
