',i •• . native Indians. 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:

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

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

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. The .it Barber of Secille iii

REMARKABLY LOW PRICES. 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. DOL
LAR, they are the cheapest security In tke market, being
more than 15 per cent lower than Vatted States Stocks,

IlAunranusio, Jan:9, 1868.—There WM a gen
eral understanding last evening and early this
morning that the organization of the House
would take place to-day, and that the bolting
eight members would be satisfied with certain
concessions in framing the railroad committee so
as to huie , their views. 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. O. Ilughart, President of the Pitts
burgh and Connellsville 'Railroad. Consultations
last tuning and this morning were very ant

as well as by members.

rho ContiLitton of Feeling in GeorXia•
The Atlanta, (Georgia) corn spondent of the
Cincinnati Cvnimercial gives this account of the
present condition of political sentiment in that
State. Ile ems: ,
"Tlie here 14 a very simple one. On the
side of reconstruction aro—
"nrst—The uten of 'Ocorzia, who are. always
on *beside of the Union—pmen who have su ffered
proscription, oppression', robbery, outrage, and
aim ot‘t death itst , lf.
"Secoqui—Tipme (Georgia horn) who, althornit
Mac liMe secessionists, yet now reCognizing the
tituatimi, part willingly with slavery—moo 'Nilo
tee that secession, If not a crime, waA at I.ist ,
mistake, and only desire to tee their State au - dn
at peace in tbe Union. Governor Brown is_such
a man. Joplin% /lull is Mich 'a , Man. Te ex
rebel colonels, officers and soldiers in the con
vintion are such men. Thomands who once
d,thc ranks of the rebel army are such
"Third--Northern men who, with old-f %shinned
rotiana.,about the , - Constitution of tho ,United
States, fondly. Imagine *that they have a Just
<IWO to.the eitikenship la any.,Sttle
or Udall, and such protection for• their
Ives and property against rebel juries and rebel
n ohs.
"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."

the directors have refilled to give any informa

loaned it out on call, and in oue instant:se. where a prooni.

being made to have alt the funds belonging to
