'V — bmf
~.. ey su t a lengthy statement of reasons
o u their course, which, when divested of all
hnecessary verbiage,amounts simply to this:
tigl' are conscientiously' opposed to Mr.
kis, first, because he was connected with
1 , . last Legislature; second, because he is in
or of Abuses in legislation and extrava
' ,) Ance in expenditure; third, because he is
,i,,, 4-$•
rider the control of a powerful corporation;
t. rid fourth, because he would not appoint
committees
.
, ie committees on Republican principles.
`` `'We did not mean to vote for a Democrat
4, 4 rider any circumstances, but we expect yo a
forfy-five gentlemen to come over to us
-:ght. We have not been disappointed in
-yalculations. To be sure the majority
, not come over to our views, but the
• , :itninee has, and so we "bow to the will of
•,.:lu,sjerity." This is the sum and sub
f
ce:of this document. It implies
,the
-,
fgest charges against Mr. Davis, and takes
,titthigh moral grounds upon them. Then
7i . 'aandons these charges, and pronounces
entire 'confidence in him.
_
, "Kr. Davis, in his inaugural speech, does
- l 'eem to take exactly the same view of the
E.; He indignantly repudiates the i138111110,-
. fts , ,made against his personal 'and public
. 'batter. He then turns the flank of the
..bers very neatly, by announcing that the
rFlis he is about to make had been in
t i e sinCe last Monday, and that be has not
(red or added a single word. He ronews,
'Advance, the pledges contained in his pre
red,speech, and thus shows plainly that he
;}lot made that change of base which the
; 'ers claim as their justification for. aban
„‘tag their opposition. The bolters do not
tteiont of the affair with any great credit to
k !Town wisdom or legislative ability, but as
-
, sy are all new members, it is to be hoped
. ', = ithey will now setae'down to the regular.
,mess of the session, and that the excellent
.r kiples which they enunciate in their state
4will be brought to bear upon the prac
'blegislation of the House.

'!‘ 'l4:te brief abstract of General Meade's ad
.
.ilress to the Georgia Convention will be read
:',;''with much interest, as the first indication of
•thc position %tub. the new commander of
I the Third District proposes to oc
tupy. •There are — twiiqmportant points per
""ceptible, even in the very meagre report of
the speech which haspeen received. General
Meade Informs the Convention that the Re-
construction acts of Congress are law, until
decided otherwise by competent authority.
• This would sound like a very trite remark
tater ordinary circumstances. But whon
taken in contrast with the declarations of the
Proident,who,althouglit not a "competent au-
Illtority,"bas undertaken to deny to those acts
the authority of law, it is very significant. It
Indicates that General Meade has gone
his new post of duty untrammeled by
i,. edges to and instructions trom the Presi
" ent, and also that he is disposed to take a
eionamon-sense view of his duties under the
"siw,,,without, troubling himself about ques
t' sens' which' belong solely to the Supreme
art of the United States.
general Meade also cautions the Conven
,
n', that its acts are not laws until the new
Askitution has been adopted, and that it
expect him to enforce its legisla
---iireept at his own discretion. He Intl
,
4 that he may enforce such of its
Litiiuresns seem to him to be such well
,: * .opted schemes of relief as are immediately
"dilo, but holds himself entirely free to use
discretionary powers which Congress has
.ferred upon him.
;eneral Meade has not gone off in any
,
re of rhetorical general orders, on mau
-1 his command, and consequently the
ident has not, as yet, sent any message
ogress, calling upon that body to pass
'lions Of thanks to him in advance. It
be very foolish for anybody to follow
,diculous example of Mr. Johnson in
'kw of Hancock, and jump to the con
,.:;that General Meade, on account of
at address to the Georgia Convention,
and Washington, and that he alone,
ie officers of the army, is worthy to
and commended. General Meade
a a difficult and delicate position, and can
'possibly be judged until he has been tried.
at there is good reason to infer from the
fief report of his address yesterday, that he
arts upon his duties independent of' Presi
atial interference and with a determination
, enforce the laws, not according to the die,-
- von of the rebel advisers by whom he will
, arrounded, bat according to their obvious
ions, as understood by every loyal,
'•nd sensible.nian.

ence is that• it • ends "Your unhappy outcast

cousin Minnie," and she gives a different
address, this one being "Miss Jennie Middle
ton, Combs, Termesconater county, Lower
Canada." This attempt to swindle our towns
man failed, but he has kept the letter as a
curiosity, and now finds it identical with the
one published in Montreal. It was quite a
clever dodge, but it is only a new warning
not to send money to unknown applicants
through the Postoplce.
'Since writing the foregoing, still another
sample of this clever trickster's work has
been shown us. A merchant of this city also
received, last August, a copy of the letter to
"My Lord," precisely like the others, but
signed "Harriet," and giving the address of
"Mrs. Harriet Do Lisle, St. Michel, Belle
cheese County, Canada West." .The post
mark, in this case, appears to be "Wood
stock." Perhaps others of our citizens have
also been addressed in the same way.

THE ;NEW 0111 i PAID FIRE DE
PAIL% IYI E N 1
The paid system has now been in operation
in the New York Fire Department for a suffi
cient length of time to permit an accurate
judgment to be formed concer ning , its advan
tages or. disadvantages. Recently a committee
of the Citizens' Association of New York
were appointed to confer with the Commis
sioners of the Metropolitan Fire Department,
with a view to an inquiry into its condition
and working,and to reducing the cost of the
Department without impairing its efficiency,
and their report has been made public. The
Committee have gone very fully into the sub
ject; and the report contains much valuable
information and some very excellent sugps
lions. From it we learn that the Department
consists of thirty-four steam fire-engines in
active service, with a reserve of eight steam
ers; there are also nine hand-engines, with a
sufficient number of hose-carts and hook 'and"
ladder trucks. The force needed to manage
this apparatus,and the pay they receive yearly,
are as follows :
l'ilvates, drivers and E toke rs
Assistant Foremen
Engineers . 6f - rituamers
Foremen
District Engineers.
Assistrut Engineei
Wei Engineer.
The total number of men, including engi
neers and privates,, is sot, and the amount
annually received by them lbr salaries is
$700,000. The estimate for the entire cost
of supporting the department during the
year 1868 is $893,000. The committee
point out several defects in the working of
the new system, but as the law creating the
department was made by the State Legisla
ture, they must look to Albany,. for such
changes as may be needed. Thus the privates
comprising the • force must be paid one
thousand dollars each per annum, and they
are not allowed to work at any employment
or to attend to any other business than the
duty of patroling certain districts and extin
guishing fires. By allowing a portion of the
force to attend to other employments under
certain restrictions, when off fire duty, and
with certain other reforms that are suggested,
the committee are persuaded that the cost of
supporting the Department could be reduced
to $600,000 per annum.
4;600,000 seems like a large sum to pay for
the support of the Fire Department of a city
like New York; but it must be borne in mind
t hat in the year 1864 $552,078 was drawn
directly from the city treasury to support its
so-called Volunteer Department. Add to this
the heavy sum levied upon citizens for the
purchase of ball tickets, in the procuring of
presents for target companies, and through
many other well known expedients for tap
ping the pocket-books of citizens, and the
volunteer system will
this
found to be the
dearest in the end. In this estimate we take
no note of the destruction of property through
the reckless use of water in irresponsible
hands, or of the cost that must inevitably en
sue to a community through the operation of
any system that exercises a demoralizing in
fluence. The citizens' committee very pithily
snm up this portion of the argument by re
marking that they "cannot close their report
without expressing their gratification at the
high moral tone that characterizes the De
partment, and at its absolute freedom from
the evils that led so many of our young men
to ruin in the Old Volunteer Department."
Chief Engineer McOusker, by his common
sense adaptation of means to ends in his ad
ministration of the duties of his responsible
position as head of the Philadelphia Fire De
partment, will doubtless convince the com
munity that in the great majority of fires one
twentieth of the means usually employed for
their extinguishment would be amply suffi
cient. We have forty steamers in service,
and there are scarcely two °pintoes as to the
fact that there are by far too many of them.
If New York, at an annual expense of $600,-
000, can support a Fire Department con.
tabling more than an equal number of
machines, and keep over five hundred mea
under heavy pay, Philadelphia, where the
necessaries of life are much cheaper, and
where all public service is performed at a
lower rate than in New Y vk, could fall
greatly below the Metrepoltaa figure in the
cost of a Paid Fire Department. Our present
department costs us $1 13,000 a year. Add
to this sum the incidentals that come out of
the pockets of private citizens, and certain
contingencies both immediate and remote
that the New York Committee refer to at
the close of their report, and it is quite clear
that we do not fall very far below the Nsw
York figure in what we pay, directly and in
directly, for putting out tires.

Mr. Arthur's pleasant little "Children's Hour,"
for January, is an extra nnmber, giving eight ad
ditional pages of reading matter. The articles
are generally devoted to holiday subjects, and
the illustrations are numerous, well executed,
and very pretty. "The Children's Hour" has
gained a moat flattering position in the good
graces of the wee folk, under the judicious
management of its experienced editor and pub
lisher. r,
"Our School-Day Visitor" for January has a
larAo variety of amusing and instructive matter
for the young pEople, blended in excellent pro
portions. It aims to meet all the gradations of
youth of both vexes, and succeeds well in this
design. Its illustrations are numerous, but infe
rior in execution to those of most of the same
class of magazines in New England. It is pub
lished, at a very low rate, by J. W. Daughaday
& Co:, 424 Walnut street.
The "World at Home" is the name of a new
monthly published by Evans & Co., of this city.

Magazine" in its general design, containing a va
riety of miscellaneous literature. Great induce
ments in the way of prizes and premiums are of
fered to subscribers in the prospectns of the pub
lishers. The first number looks well.

525 MILES
OF THE
UNION PACIFIC RAILROAD,
Running West from Omaha
ACROSS THE CONTINENT,
ARE NOW COMPLETED•
This brings the line to the eastern base of the Reeky
mountains, and it is expected that the track will be laid
thirty miles further, to Rvons Pl l / 4 8. 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 one
hundred. Work in the rock•euttings on the western
elope will continue through the winter:and there is now
no reason to doubt that the entire art nd lino to the Pa
cific will be open for bovine's in 1870.
The means provided for the comitmetion of this Groat
Notional Work are ample. The Knifed /Hates grants Its
Six Per Cent. Bonds at the rate of from $16,000 to $48.000
per mile, for which it takes a secetut Hen OS security, and
receives payment to a large if not to the full extent of lie
claim In services. These Bonds are issued as each
twenty.tulle section is finished, and after it haa been ex•
arnined by United State* Commissioners and pronounced
to be in ail respects a first-clads road, thoroughly supplied
with depots, rcmitr•shops, stations, and all tho nocessarl
rolling stock and other equipments.
The Crafted States afro mske4 a donation of 12,13e0 acres
of land to the mile, which will be a source of large re
value to the Company. Much of this land in the Platte
Valley le among the most fertile In the world, and other
large portions aro rovers.: with heavy pine forests and
abound In coal of the bee: quality
The Company Is also authorized to Issue its 'own Pint
Mortrage Bonds to an amount (vial to the hurtle of the
Government and no more. Don. K D. Morgan and nom
Oaken Arnee are Trustees for the ffondholders,and deliver

lia) , bi Cu communicutect to the coroner . The sad
art f.. curved le the suburban village of Columbia,
and greatly shocked the it habitants, with vrhont
she was pretty generally act_phint(d.
Anna Allen, the wife of Jacob Allen, aged\
about 30 years, had for some time resided in th 4t
o:Ater, win c she supected an Improper intimacy
between her bushortd and
..a wcrnau whose hos
band had been dratted into the army. Having
eutt.citrit evidence to convince her that her fears
were well founded, she left her home and re
turned to her 'father's house in Columbia, taking
with her the two children—a girl now some ten,
and a boy seven years of age. During her ab
sence Allen moved to this city, and, it is said, set
np housekeeping with the partner ho had newly
taken to his bosom.
Mrs. Allen's father dying soon after, she de
termined to again begin a home for herself and
children, and earn a living by washing, sewing,
or such other labor as she could procure. By the
kindness of those who knew her as a good
,woman, a situation was proen for her as
oirii..44,
female janitress orthe Town Hall, a o—com
fortable spartmentS were assigned to her in the
...basement of the building._ From her convene
-
lion with those who knew her troubles, she had
until lately believed that her husband. would re
turn to her; but for some months past that hallu
cination seems to have passed away, and she be
came very despondent. Bhe, however, continued
to work daily, but always had refused to obtain
a divorce from her husband, although it was said
he was anxious she should do so.
Thus matters stood until Tuesday night last,
when it appears she made preparations for the
deed which was to remove her froin all her sor
rows. Her daughter was sent to her mother's to
remain until the next day and at a somewhat
early hour she brought the bed from the adjacent
room, used as a sleeping apartment, and spread
It ter the night's accommodation before the stove
In the , kitchen. Upon this the mother and
,:fin laid down, and the latter soon tell
&deep. Abort three o'clock in the morning the
boy awakened and found himself alone, his
'other having left the bed unknown to him. Ho

bors standing against the gate, when be related
to them the condition of a ff,Airs, as far as be knew
them. They, thinking that she might have been
nt/ar by some siAt person in the vicinity, ad
seepkAm to return to his bed, instead of which
us„went to an adjacent house and remained until
morning
About 10 o'clock Wednesday morning Mrs.
).glen's mother came over to her daughter's real
enco, and learning of her absence, did not, for a
me, conjecture the fearful story she had yet to
earn. By noon, Mrs. Allen not returning, her
tars were aroused, an she determined to make
'me investigations. It was found that the door
'silang from the kitchen to the sleeping apart
ent was securely fastened ,from the inside.
:tier° Was but one window in the room, and
,s bad been securely nailed down. The male
«4:or, Mr. Brown, was now sent for, and
knocking out ono of the panes of glass, the
et was revealed that Mrs. Allen had committed
lei& by hanging herself to one of the bed
fats, and that life bad been extinct for several
urs. She had prepare() with great care against
y intrusion by suspending a thick counterpane
w;t tbe window, thus shutting out all exterior
.w of the apartment. A candle was still burn
on the mantle, with an open book standing
in front of it.

Accused to Plead—'l,he (use Post.;

The very neat but rather small chapel of St.
,Peter's church, with its walls of delicate slate
Color, covered with a liberal sprinkling of vernal
wreitliteand crosses of pine and holly, and choice
didactic excerpts from the Scrlptures, was yeitter
day the seerfieof a gathering of priests and laity
of unusual interest, The cause of this gather
ing was the expected-trial of Rev. Stephen. H.
Tyeg, Jr., who, as weilknown, stands accused
of having gone over, into New Jersey last
summer and preached to the benighted heathen
there, without the proper consent of the,Episeo
pal prelates within the limits of whose parochial
care ho dispensed religious' pabulum, as alleged,
in violation of the canons of the Church. A.
court had been ordered—a clerical court martial.
is fact—to try the accused—a court composed of
"most grave, reverend and potent" preachers in
this branch of the Church militant. The hour ap
pointed for the convenlogof the court was halfpast
twelve. It was an hour after the'appointed time
before the proceedings began. This period was
occupied in a buzzing . . conversation 'upon sub
jects not altogether sacerdotal. In the meanticae
the accused eat quietly conversingl, with his coun
sel, Judge Fullerton and Mr. Parker, of New
Jersey, and gave no indication in his counte
nance or demeanor of extraordinary criminality,
but smiled and bowed and twirled his jaunty c we
with a show of the utmost indifference, or pos
sibly want of appreciation of the terrible charges
upon which he was about to he tried.
After about an hour of patient, undemonstra
tive waiting, except the low conversation re
ferrrd to. Rev. Dr. Beach, ,President of the court,
very quietly arose end remarked that Rev. Mr.
Tuttle. a member of the court, being absent, the
°tie r men ben. had decided to adjoarti until two
P. M. He read a section from the church,canon
approving of an adjournment. Mr. Parket asked
for an adjournment for a longer period to
enable counsel to prepare' the de
fence. The President of the court
still insisted upnn two P.'lll. as the hour for cell
vening. Judge Fullerton tried his persuasive
poe rrs in favor of a MOTO prolonged adjourn
ment. but the court were steadfast upon this
Pout. At Ibis stage of the proceedings Ifev. fir,
Tuttle made his appearance, and thereupon the
President announced their readiness to proceed
with the case. The President thereupon read the
do rare and specifications as follows:

Missiseri, under a' writ • of error granted by
Judge of that State. The case is where a
party •was arrested by the military authorities,
' under the laws of Congress, but a writ of habeas

• (Massa)rsaNaric-tlotied from Third Editlatil •
Mr. Simmer introduced a joint, resolu
tion, that whereas, The amendment to the Con•
stitution proposed by the Thirtv-ninth Congress,
known as Article 11, has already been adopted
by the Legislatures of twenty-two States (reciting
their names); and whereas, by the Constitution,
an amendment duly proposed and ratified by
three-reunite of the • States, is declared valid;
therefore •
Resolved, That said amendment, having re
ceived the requisite ratification; is valid
to all intents and purposes. He said
it seems important that the country
should know whether that article is valid as a
part of the Constitution or not. He thought
there was no question of its validity. He hoped
Congress would declare so without delay, and
that it was their duty rather than that of any
other branch of the Government. It bas been the
custom heretofore for the Secretary of State to
certify the ratification. In his opinion it came
properly within the cognizance of Congress..
The Joint resolution was referred to the Com
mittee on the Judiciary.
Mr. Grimes (Iowa) introduced a resolution that
the Secretary of the Navy be requested to suspend
until further action of Congress all payments to
officers of the navy on the retired and reserved
lists, provided under the act of March 1, 1867,
except such'as they were entitled to at .the time
they were placed thereon, and at the time of the
passage of said act.
The resolution was adopted.
Mr. Doolittle (Wis.) gave notice that when Mr.
Morton's resolution to invalidate the existing
governments in the South was again called up,
he would move to amend by instructing
the Committee on the Judiciary in any
bill for reconstruction, reported by
them, to insert proviso that in any election
of officers, or for the ratification of the Consti
tution, persons voting must be possessed of one
of three qualifications:
Fase—To have served in the army ono year or
more. '

* * If there has been a soreness against Mr.

that an inferior class, and exhibited as an new
ate representation of the entire community.
have seen the same process applied to England
by Americans, and can appreciate the misrepre
sentation. A man takes.a bad work-house as an
example of the brutality with which the
English treat the poor, or he singles out a 'Ohm
aho bents his wife and displays him as a sped
. ifieu of the - British character. There is no people
who - wiltnot suffer from treatment such as this.
The Americans might have looked upon Mr.
Dickens as an offenderagain4t them, and made
him a sort of scapbost for, all subsequent offend
ers. Thtit, indeed, waithe line which a few—a •'
very few—of the , American newspapers recom
mended; but it was never for an instant propable
that the people would take it. They havb, in
stead given their visitor a welcome which mast
have tar surpassed In warmth and friendship his
olan expectations.
A petit& who Can act thus eannot be so bitterly
prejudiced against everything English as some
would have us believe. They prove themselves
to he a liberal-minded and fair-dealing people,
instead of a race tilled petty hatreds and
malignities, such as certain persons belonging to
both countries sometimes depict them. Every
one who has seen' much of the Americans has
been impressed by the warmth and kindliness of
their character and by the fIyOVNII affc
tion which a large proportion of them enterta e in
for the country troth which they take their
something
gin. There Is something In the dispOsition of
both the English and the Americans which makes
them half reluctant to acknowledge the- good
points they recognize in each other. ' The sense
of kinship sometimes impels men to reprove
more vigorously than they praise. But, afterill
the animosities or prejudices of a former genera
lion are dying out under the influence of free
and well-Informed discussion. The criticisms
which once vexed the Americana are no longer
possible, partly,perhaps,because more just obser,-,
'ration is applied to them, but partly also, as they
would bo the first to acknowledge, because thert
are no lo greatn that stage of immaturity through
which all nations pass. The American peo
ple have grown, and In accordance with all hu
man experience, have grown all th troubleuickly
under the pressure of anxiety and The
bone of the national character, so to speak, has
become hard and firm, They read criticisms of
America written five-and-twenty years ago as vre.
read Macitulay's account of the state of the English '
people in 1685. It is a former generation, almost
another race,whose portraits they look upon. The
rough pioneer or adventurer has gone away two
thousand miles to the westward, and the cities
are full of traveled men and women of culture and
refinement. Mr. Dickens has been to Boston nna
New York, but they are not the Boston and New
York he saw before. Old and disreputable scenes,
the curse of large towns, have been , swept away.
and noble streets have been builtwhere a few years
since, the cattle grazed in the fields. This change
is only a sign of the gem ral progreas. of the
people. The ill-natured satirist might fill his
portfolio With sketches in any society, but if he
wanted to fled the most objectionable. Of the
characters once put into 'literary museums
and 1 bell«I "American,' he would have
to search long and far., The "mail- ,
ralized citizen"may rage and fume '
against the country from which he sprang, or
its rulers, but the true American k ever read,v to.
do justice when he Is called upon for action.,
The visit of Mr. Dickens supplies another Blue- ,
tration of this, and will go further than a scbre
of books to prove that the se Jtirnent of kindness
and honest fet ling—in a word, of good fellow
ship—is as active among the Americans, and may
be as safely depended on, as it can possibly be.
among the English or any other people.
