When William Penn first visited Philadelphia in 1082, his own Slate roof House on Second street was among the . , most western of Philadelphia dwellings. The four or five hundred houses that then constituted the city were clustered about the Penny Pot House, at Vine street wharf, around the Blue Anchor at the mouth of Dock creek, and about the Swedish settle ment of which the old S vedes church is' niftiest the sole remaining relic. Unfortunately, the statistics from which an accurate estimate of the growth of the city might be gleaned are far from complete; but they nevertheless afford us a reasonably corn +' prehensive view of how the city has grown ' up from an insignificant village to its present importance. According to the best authorities the total number of dwellings in the city was as follows, in the years named below: YearB. Howes. Years r 1683 801783.. L 1700 700 1803. 1749 2,076 1860- 1760 2,9G0 1863 17694,474 1888 1776 8,460 In making an estimate of the growth of the city from these figures, it must be borne , •in mind that the word dwelliny. in 1868 t means something very Aifferent from what it `" .. ..did when most of the statistics given above It were gathered. Frame houses are now un it ( .' . known in the built-up portions of the city ; I '414 two-storied dwellings are comparatively ,'"44 ecarce; and a single handsome reel t, .. dence of the present day would 1 , ...i • outweigh in costliness and elegance 't:. whole squares of the dwellings of fifty years " 11 ' ' Ago. The growth of the city in extent is 0 7 '4' greatly in advance of its growth in the mere et 4,, • i number of its dwellings. The present gene -I_:h,i , "'ration of Philadelphians is wiser than those i , , t .- , ~ that preceded it in respect to elbow - , h • •, - • , room. The Philadelphians who were / .itcotemporary with William Penn, and Er,/ V ' '' those who came immediately after him, l crowded themselves into narrow streets • .and alleys, and built yardless houses, off , Nylons or careless of the fact that ground was plentiful and cheap within a stone's throw o' 'their Aomiciles. The Philadelphian of 1868' does not act so unwisely. lie builds his ' dwelling where he can enjoy abundant light, plenty ot pure air, and space enough to culti .:'• • ar, kr*lliatte his grape - vines and rose-bushes.

THE 0717A1UX When a man is either a knave or a fool, it is the part of generosity to give him the benefit of the doubt. Yesterday was the an niversary of the glorious battle of New Or leans, and it was celebrated as usual by the display of the national colors from the pub lic buildings, the newspapers offices, the betels, the Union League, the National Union Club, and many other buildings. The Old Soldiers Of 1812 held their annual meet ing, and the Democracy held theirs. At the latter meeting the O'Vaux was the centre of attraction, and made one of his finest speeches. The point of this latest effort of the distinguished orator consisted in an original argument to show that the only an niversary which the Democratic party can celebrate is the Eighth of January. "It is ovr anniversary!" shouted the O'Vaux, "It is our celebration! It belongs just as ex clusively to us as that national flag!" We believe you, my boy, just exactly as much. What an absurd °Nan' it is, to be sure. He is evidently the original of the well-known story of the little boy who paused in the dis play of his own gushing grief to reprove a little girl who was also moved to tears: "You quit ming ! It's none of your funeral !" The O'Vaux was never finer than ho was yes tet day. Never did he flap the wings of his rhetoric and crow out his brilliant periods to better effect. With proud exclusiveness, he concedes to the Republican party all the gin les of all other battle-fields, retaining fur himself and the Democratic party the Eighth of January. Long may it wave ! And long may the O'Vaux live to prove to admiring and col fiding Democrats that there is at least ene of America's battle-fields for which they claim the exclusive patent. What are Antietam, and Gettysburg, and Vicksburg, and Corinth, and Lookout M )(in tuit), and Farragut's New . Orleans, and Nash ville, and all the other great loyal victories, down to glorious Petersburg and the surren der at Appomattox, compared to the Eighth of January, as interpreted by the O'Vaux ? Let the Union party of the country, glorify and celebrate these as their anniversaries, but give the O'Vaux his own, his darling Eighth. There is, of course, a great deal of other nonsense in the speech of last night, but it is not particularly note-worthy. In one place the orator bursts out in this explosion of vir tuous indignation at the Republican party : "Seeking to rouse one class of the people against the other !"—and the O'Vaux gasped for breath at the horrid thought. Considering that this very speech descends to the lowest depths of demagoguism to in flame the passions of one class against another, and to stir up a wicked strife with out cause and from no motive but that of the most degraded partisanship, it is not easy to maintain the generous desire to give the O'Vaux the benefit of that doubt to which we have already referred. But no one should quarrel with the O'Vaux. He is an unfailing wing, of amusement to all parties in the community, and he should be encouraged. TIRE F) NIAN PARADE'. The Fenian Brotherhood performel it; "funeral obscluies," as the newspapers are so tend of calling them, over its Manchester martyrs yesterday. It was the largest pro cession the Democracy of Philadelphia have made since the McClellan torch-light parade in 1814. The streets were not in nice order for walking, being covered with a slimy mud. They look better to-day, in come quence of the large quantity of the moil mixture which was necessarily carried to the abodes of Fenianism on the boots and trowsers of the Brotherhood. The solemnity of the parade was somewhat'.m,arred by the tolling up of pantaloons and tucking them into boot-tops to escape the mud. It had not a funereal effect, but could not be avoided, with any regard to either economy or cleanliness. It is estimated that nearly five thousand per sons marched in the line, and the cost of the parade in music, badges, undertakers, horse and carriage hire, loss of wages, refreshments and other items could not have fallen much below 1425,000, which may be set down as a , dead loss of that amount to the Fenian cause. The military display was not very imposing. It consisted of thirty or forty men, in a most unbecoming uniform,in which the Hibernian green and the American blue met in a most unharmonious contrast. Careful observation developed the curious fact that the only Republican voters in the whole procession were any few Councilmen who may have, occupied the carriages provided for that body. The police were properly li ep t out of the affair. Excellent dispositions were made of the force, by Chief Ruggles, to preserve older along the route of the parade; but ewe was taken that the police should do uonor to their murdered brother-oflicial, by abstaining from all connection with the clononstiation. The affair passed off quietly aid peaceably, and will be remembered aridly 813 a rensatkable indication of the waning influence of tne clergy of the Catholic t hutch over their people. Bishop Wood and ids clergy generally are known to be in de cided opposition to this whole business of Fenianism, hut they are 'apparently power ess to control their flocks frOm straying into the fin hidden fidds of the Fenian Brotherhood. JACKSON AND CLAN. The 'managers of the Democratic celebra tion in Wtshington,yesterday, displayed their tare taste by hanging the portraits of Andrew Jackson and Henry Clay side by side, at the mead of the room. When the Jackson furor v% as at its height, iu 1831, the Democracy ld a great Eighth-of-January celelmttiou iu this t ity, when 'the following toast was drank w lib enthusiasm: "Henry Clay.—Beneath the protection of a Stmitor's utainle he basely attacks character, und, hyrna-like, 'treys upon reputation. CenFe, viper, ye (sin ) gnaw at a Me." The l'tmocracy of 1868 manifests its spuri ous ebaracttr n many other ways, but there Is a p(irtillar impudence in prostitutin; the glorious name and memory of Henry (hay to THE DAILY EYENING BULLETIN PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, JANUARY 9,1868 such a use as that which it was reads to serve in Washington yesterday.. ANOTINEIT. COLA 11EDA16 The Bread and Butter Brigade of Philadel phia yesterday presented A. J. with an enor mous gold medal, which, if solid, must have cost ever so much money. It was a token of the Brigade's appreciation of those rare vir tues that shine so brightly in the Presilential character.. His courage, his fidelity, and, above all,' his magnanimity (vide message to the Senate on Stanton), have won him this golden reward. A. J. is getting quite a mu seum of golden rewards. He has the gold medal of the Union League of this city, the gold watch and chain of the colored people of Nashville, and, now, the gold medal of the B. B. Brigade. The "Constitutional Club of Philadelphia" must now keep an eye on their erratic idol. He "changes his Israelites" so suddenly, that they will be sure to be thrown overboard the moment he sees it to his ad vantage to do so, and they must take notice that he does not return presents when he breaks off engagements. , One of the principal objections that is urged, against negro suffrage in the South is the fact that the blacks are too ignorant to vote intelligently. This objection would have much more force if the Southern whites, who most strenuously urge it, - had not wil fully kept their bondmen in this condition of mental darkness. The excuse offered for their being thus kept in ignorance is the plea that it was not consistent with public safety to educate slaves, and that the black chattels must therefore be kept unenlightened. But the fact of emancipation, while destroying the force of this argument, has not reconciled the Southern people to the idea of educating and elevating the negro,' and colored schools are not by any means popular institutions. All sorts of obstacles are thrown in their way, and their teachers are systematically pro scribed. But it is not often that the spirit of persecution is carried to the degree of dia bolical malignity that marked a recent occurrence in Brecki n rid ge county, Kentucky. It seems that the teacher of one of the largest colorod schools in the county arranged to hove a concert and exhibition on Christ mas Eve. She was warned that it would not be permitted, but refused to believe that the rebels would carry their threat into execution; and went on with her preparations. The ex hibition wus held in one of the colored churches, which was packed with the friends of the school and children. Within a few minutes after the exercises closed, but not until the people had left, the church was blown to pieces by the explosion of a keg of powder that had been placed under the plat form on which the children were seated, and probably fired by means of a slow match. Henry A. Wise once thanked God that there was not a newspaper printed in the Accomac District, which he represented in Congress. The rebels of Kentucky seem determined that nobody with a dark skin shall be taught how to read either books or newspapers in their State. Breckinridge county is well named if the Guy Fawkeses of the colored church that has been blown up are fair sam ples of its population. The New York Times, in speaking of Mr. Andrew Johnson, says "the steady determina tion with which be has adhered to his original policy is beginning to have an effect even upon those a who dissent most widely from it." This remark is somewhat of the Bunsby order. Mr. 'Johnson's •`steady determination" im presses those who differ most widely from his policy much as the conduct of a certain quadruped would impress them if the animal would elevate his ears, and planting his hoofs before him, expect the world to admire his "steady determination." What some people call "Roman firmness," some other people look upon as asinine stubborn ness, and perverse malignity. ITALIAN OPEICA.—The . re:appearance of Ma dame Gazzaniga attracted to the Academy of Music, last evening, the largest audience of the stetson. The opera was La Favorite. On her first appearance there was.a universal and pro longed welcome, Nthich must have gratified her exceedingly, as it showed that the Philadelphia i üblic cherished the liveliest feeling of regard for the lady who inaugurated their noble opera house nearly eleven years ago. Time, while somewhat impairing Mmo. Gazzaniga's voice, has dealt kindly with her In other respects. She still sings with more intelligence and feeling than any opera singer in tLe country, while her act ing is surpassingly fine. , She was honored with frequent genuine applause, and severe' calls before the curtain. Signor Bi rash's beautiful--but --delkate-- voice-- shows signs of over-work; but he sings so like an artist and acts so well, that his want Of force and steadiness of t one can be overlooked. Ills first romance, "Una vergine" and his "Spit to gentil" were both sung with exquisite grace and true feeling. In the grand duo of the last scene he fairly shared the honors with Mme. qaa zaniga. Signor Bellini was good as "Fernand / o," but ho sang sharp at times, and his voice is of suited to the more tender passages of the opira. Signor Antonucci was admirable as "Balthaz 1.." Ills voice is a truly sympathetic ham cant( re, and his method is the best, while at the el , e t n time he always sings intelligently and consc 11- tionely. The fine ens( ruble pieces of this of re wore extremely well given, the chorus and r che stra both being so lull and so well trained. i 'lbis evening there will be an unusual atte. tion at the Academy.

Xl.th Congress—Second Session. tHorm—Continued from Folrth Edition.] The morniug hour having expired, dr.Schcnck, from the Committee of Ways aud Means, reported a joint resolution to provide for a commission to examine and rt port on metres for distilled spirits, slid asked for its immediate consideration. It pro% ides for the creation of a commission of live persons, to be appointed by the Secretary of ihe Treasury, to examine carefully all metres and mechanical contrivances or inventions that may be presented, intended• to measure, test and as certain the productiveness of grain or other arti cles prepared for distillation, or the actual quan tity and strength of distilled spirits.subject to tax, produced therefrom,giving due notice of the Urns when and Mace where such examination is to be conducted, the commission to meet and proceed to the performance of its duties under the in structions of the Secretary of the Treasury at the earliest practicable day, and to report in de tail to the Secretary, to be communicated to Congress, the results of its examination, with such recommendations as it may deem expedient, on or before February 15, 1868. The second section provides, that pending the action of the Commission, amenntil its report be made, and a metre adopted by law, all work on the construction of mares,under the direction of the Treasury Department, shall be suspended, and that In the meantime no further contract for metres shall be made by the Secretary of the Treasury under section fifteen of the act of March 2,1867. 'lee third section directs the Secretary of the Treasury to pay the expenses incident to the carrying out of this joint resolution, and also a reasonable compensation for the services of the Conntnissioners. Pending its consideration, the Senate amend ment to the House bill, in reference to bonded warehouses for whisky, was presented by the Secretary of the Senate, and was immediately, OD motion of Mr. Schenck, taken up, considered and concurred in, and that bill now goes to the President for his signature.

NUM 525 MILES ' OF TIM UNION PACIFIC RAILROU, Running West from Omaha ACROSS THE CONTINENT, ARE NOW COMPLETED. This brings the line to the eastern base of the .Rocky mountains, and it is expected that the track will be laid. thirty miles further, to Evans Pass. the highest point on the road, by January. The maximum grade from the foot of the mountains to the summit is but eighty feet to the mile, while that of many eastern roads is over ens hundred. ' Work in the rock•euttinga on the western elope will continuo through the winter. and there is now no reason to doubt that the entire grsnd line to the Ps cific will he open for business in 1870. The means provided forthe construction of this Great National Work are ample. The United States grants Its Six Per Cent. Bonds at the rate of from $lB.OOO to Woo per,ralle, for which - ft takes a amend lien as security, and receives payment to a large if not to the full extent of its claim in services. These Honda are issued as each twenty.milo section is finished. and after it has been ex amined by United States VOMMItIeitenCIII and pronounced to be in all respects a first-class road. thoroughly supplied with depots, repatrahops, delete% and all the necessary rolling stock and other equipments. The United States also make/ a donation of 12,800 scree of land to the mile, which will be a source of large re venue, to the Company. Much of this land In the Platte Valley is among the most fertile to the world, and other large portions are covered with heavy pine forests and abound in coal of the beet quality . The Company is also authorized to lame Its own First Mortgage Bonds to an amount equal to the issue of the Government and no more. lion. E. D. Morgan and lion. Oakes Ames arc Trustees for the Bondholderaand deliver the Bonds to the Company only as the work pre. grosses, so that they always represent an actual and pro ductive value. The authorized capital of the Company is One Hundred Million Dollars, of which over five millions, have been Paid in upon the work already done. EARNINGS OF THE COMPANY. At preeent, the profits of the Company are derived only from its local traffic, but this is already much more than sufficient to pay the in'erest on all the Honda the Company can issue. U not another mile were built. It br not doubted that wben the ioaA to completed the through trab.c of the only line connecting the Atlantic and Paci fic Staten will be large beyond preccdent.and as there will be ru competition, it can always be done at profitable rater. It will be noticed that the Union Pacific liallroad'is„ in. fact, a Government Work. built under the oupervition of Government officers, and to • large extent with Go vernment money, and that its honda are issued under Government direction. It Is believed that no similar eecurity is so carefully griarded, and certainly no other ltr based upon a larger or more valuable property. As the Company's FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS are offered tor the present at P 3 CENTS ON TOE.

Before the sosaion opened at 10 o'clock, however, it became apparent that the understand leg would not be fel fillvd, that the parties wore again an tagonls tic, and - that the eight bolters would cast their votes as heretofore. When the first ballot was taken this was found to be the case. Delegations from Allegheny and other western counties, interested in the free railroad laws, have appeared, prominent among whom was Wm.

"On the side of anti-reeonstruction are solely those who are still animated by the epirit of the pro-alavery rebellion. "It is natural that stich men as these should fed most keenly the silent. but telling repvoach . cif the attitude of men who, like themselves, were once slavbholders and eccessioniata, but who now, unlike themselves, recognize that they have a country—not a elaveocricae to look Up to. They do so ter lit, and, consequently, their fiercest anger, their bitter hate,la concentrated on these men. "Governor Brown, for instance—a mild, digni fied, Christian gentleman, is the target for every pro-slavery rebel's quiver full of poisoned arrows of insult, abuse and - detraction. I presume he is accustomed to the treatment by this time, and estimates It at its true value. "Take another instance. 'Dr. H. V. N. Miller, a professor in the Atlanta Medical College, one of the most distinguished men In Georgia, 'and so talented a public speaker as to have received the surname of the 'Mountain Dernosthenes;' is a gentleman whose character, until a few weeks since, 'was supposed te, be spotless. Until a few weeks since he was not known to favor recon struction: Until a few weeks since he was not a member of the Convention.. But being a rcconstructioniat, being a member of the Convention, he straight way, in the eyes of all aristocratic, pro-slavery Georgia, becomes Inebald,"scalawair,"sculn of bell,' ignoble,"base,' and receives the dread in fliction of two solid, solemn and sciolistlc col umns from the Augusta Chronicle arid Sentin4 and a like infliction from the Columbus Sun, to say, nothing of a elping paragraphs from smaller sized sheets. No one supposes the simultaneous appearance of these two articles, at points sepa rated by the breadth of Georgia, to be purely ac cidental. "It is perfectly well understood down here that .when a man departs in a pro-slaverry community from the prescribed circle of prejudiccs,which are mistaken for Ideas and principles, he must be pat down,and such a pressareia brought to bear upon him, socially and professionally, that he mast succumb or leave. Accordingly, one of the two articles I refer to in headed 'Refugees from Res pectability,' which title presents, in three words, the entire system and philosophy of the persecu tion I have described. "Does a man dare depart from the sacred teachings and traditions of pro-slavery? Let him be anathematized. He ceases thereby to be respectable. Let him not he spoken to. Have naught to do with him lit his business. Let his wife not he visited. Let his children be thrust from Sunday school. Shun contact with him at the ve'ry communion table of the church in which you loth worship. "Such is the practice here among gentlemen claiming to be high-toned, chivalrous and Chris tian. Aud if,when this article is read in Georgia,. any man dare esiusay the truth of this de.,crip ton, I will cite him names, dates, places and per sons, that will compel his acknowledgment. "Understand me. I do not mean that Northern men—mere Yankees—are thus treated. 1 mean men of Southern birth and life-long residerce.v Provisions 111 J ELT. The Portlaud tt der rtiscr says : ‘•lietween Mackay's islaue and the main the serf, tinder the action of easterly and northeast erly storms, sweeps along the shoresoi Falmouth and Cumberland towards this gap to the harbor of this city, a vast amount of movable sand and mud, PO that already a bar has been formed across the space from the main, laud to the ishu.d, upon which at low tide a horse and wagon may drive across. At higher stages of the tide, when the storm rages, this floating and moving matter is carted over the bar and do posited into the channel of the Presumpacot river, where it sinks and rests, until the spring and fall freshets in that river succeed, and sweep it anew onward lower down, scattering it over the whole harbor, and especially along the line of (*middle ground" fronting the wharves—and there steadily reducing the depth of water so as to prevent access to the wharfs for vessels of 1,700 or 2,000 tons burthen. "What is wanted to remedy all this, is to cause a breakwater to be constructed from Mackay'a Island to the main land, and thus practically stopping the Influx of matter into the Presump scot river, and giving new strength to the flow of that river along the whole length of the harbor at every season of freshets."

A resolution was adopted in the House today, calling upon the President, to intercede with the Queen of Great Britain for the release of certain tarties, l American citizens, not con fined in British prisons on the charge of being engaged in the Ferian conspiracy. The unani mitSr with which this was adopted by the House shows that when the Committee on Foreign Affairs report some measure for the settlement of the difficulties arising out of these arrests, prompt action will be taken, regardless of conse quences.
