The peace in Europe, to which we have
ktely referred, and which thoughtless an
aalists might consider something almost
millennial, is, as has been already intimated,
'somewhat delusive and very expensive. The
armies and navies of the principal nations,of
Europe, according to the latest statistics,
comprise just about five millions of men.
These five millions are the picked men of
Europe; those between the ages of 18 and 45;
those free from disease and those unafilicted
with any personal deformity. The services
of these five millions of first-rate men, if they
were engaged in the pursuits of peace instead
'of those of war, ought to be worth say a
thousand dollars a year apiece; that is to say,
Eve thousand millions a year are lost to the
general hadustry and prosperity of Europe,
through the engagement of these mon in
military service. This amount, or some
thing near to it, has to bo raised from the in
dustry of the rest of the people, to clothe,
arm, feed and maintain those five millions,
more or less, who are prevented from being
Industrious citizens, and compelled to be ex
pensive soldiers or sailors.
All this in a time of peace. In case of war,
provision is made by which the effective force
of the armies and navies of Europe may be
speedily doubled, or even trebled. But it is
the peace establishment of the various gov
ernments to which this article refers. In the
Unitedlitates where, although the population
Is much less, the area of territory is about as
large as that of Europe,and the external fron
tier to be defended is much larger, we regard
a standing army of fifty thousand men as
something very large, and we consider the
pay of these fifty thousand able-bodied men
a very heavy burden ; while we also consider
the loss of the labor of their hands in peace-
NI industry as a serious grievance, only to be
'compensated for by the security they give to
the forty millions of people that the Govern
ment does not require for military service.
But when the fact is presented that Europe
uses, in time of peace, five millions of men to
do the work-for which we grudge fifty thou
sand men, is it any wonder mat the United
states of America are regarded as a refuge,an
asylum and a home for the young men of
Europe ? Is it any wonder that fathers and
mothers break up their old home-ties and emi
grate to America, where their sons can be
tree men, without any danger of the fatal
conscription, which may compel them to risk
their lives, not for the sake of - a principle, but
for the sake of a dynasty?
Americans who have traveled deliberately
through the rural parts of Germany,-France,
and other continental countries, have been
struck with the scarcity of young men. The
Harms and vineyards are chiefly managed by
old men, women and children. The reason
is that the able-bodied men are in the armies
of the Emperor, the King, the Queen or the
Duke. The property, the labor and the in
come of these men unlit for military duty,
and of these women and children, are taxed
heavily, so that the governments can pay for
the support of the able-bodied husbands and
sons that the conscription wrests from them.
This is, after all, the most monstrous feature
of the despotism of Europe. Even in time of
peace,it deprives each country of a large per
centage of its beat vigor, physical and mental.
In time of war it doubles this deprivation; not
in order that the liberties of the masses may
be increased, but that the sovereign may be
secured in his power to oppress them still
further, and to oppress their posterity in all
future generations.
The new army bill, which the French Em
peror has just made hiaip dant legislature adopt
increases the proportion of men liable to con
scription very considerably. It is felt as a
grievous oppression in every part of France,
but especially in the rural portions. The
"Emperor has done nothing bolder and more
dangerous than making this increase of his
army in a time of peace, and when he is con
stantly reiterating his cries that the peace
shall not be broken. The French people may
be made to endure the new oppression; but
there are millions that would rise to cast it
WY, were there a worthy and wise leader,
who could promise them security and free
dom. There must be many men in Prance,
and in other - countries of Europe, too, - that
are now asking, themselves, what is all' this
Military service and this cruel social oppres
eon worth? Does it pay to live in such
a country?- —Does it pay to die for such
a country ? Would it not be a
much better thing to sell off all real property,
pack up and migrate to America ? There,
there is no king, no dynasty, no conscrip
tion. An honest, bard-working man can
there be a free and independent citizen, and,
now that the one conscription is over, which
was demanded by an infamous rebellion that
can never be repeated, there can be no more
danger that the young, vigorous and useful
members of a family will be torn from it.
Such facts and reflections are weakening
Europe aLd strengthening America. The
vigor .and intelligence of the old world are
coming to the new, as the only place of
refuge and of hope. The European peace
cstahliEbment is driving them away, for it
gives them some idea of the terrors of the
war estsbliehment that seems likely to be
culled for before a great while.
PA UP 0 I G POWER.
The action o 1 the Court of Quarter Sessions,
rin its address to the. Grand Jury yesterday,
on the subject of the pardoning power, has
naturally attracted much attention. The
rate 401 the ease L is bridly this : Governor
Geary, in his recent message, discusses the
oul;jtct of pardonq, anti defendatheExecative
_idepartment from ..the_ misrepresentations .
valich are E 0 commonly made, as V.) its ex-
ereite of Ike pardoning power. Ile refers to
Abe clamors that are often raised over cases
of pardon w.bielt have really never been
brought kforeliJ9 Pyvernor at till. He ex
plains tii/t (his lojurioits voibmolerstanding
arises from the fact that the Gmrt of cra
ter Hestions iu Philadelrld ► exereiies the
fowtr to "recomider, remit and chtuge
, fo .ltacts t weilte and mouths after their de
-9:( !icily," awl, 49 s coinwipti.nce, the public
adz d is confuted with the largo num
°kr of :clawed climb/01s, all of Whom
are supposed to have been pardoned by the
Governor. Governor Geary states that "as
many convicts were thus liberated from the
Moyamensing jail as were pardoned by him
from all the prisons in the Commonwealth"
during the last year. He points out that the
right to reduce or remit sentences carries
with it also the dangerous power to increase
them, and furthermore, that if it be lawful
for the judge of one court thus to wield the
pardoning power, it should extend to all
judges of all courts, which 'would certainly
result in confusion and abuse. The Gover
nor's language throughout is calm, dignified
and unexceptionable.
Without attempting an opinion on the law
of this important subject, the manner of the
Court's reply is a proper subject of comment.
Its tone indicates much feeling, and,in its per
sonal allusions to the Governor, is not charac
terized by that official courtesy which habit
ually marks the utterances of this eminent
body of jurists. There is an extreme severity
In the language, and in one or two cases even
the use of insinuations as to the official integ
rity of Governor Geary, which will be read
with much regret. The Court regards the
Governor's allusion to this subject—an allu
sion clearly made by way of self-defence—as
an attempt "to intermeddle with a co-ordinate
department of the Government." It speaks
of it as "unseemly as it was unwise, to ar
raign the Judges of this Court." It charges
him with -- a wilful-mis-statement of the case.
And, finally, it broadly implies that
the poor, the helpless or the inno
cent, seeking the remission of judicial
sentence, cannot gain access to the Executive
chamber.at Harrisburg, unless they, are able,
to incur the expense of employing a pardon
broker. Surely this is a far graver arraign
ment of a co-ordinate branch of the gov
ernment than that, of which the Court com
plains.
The Court passes on to the ihsv of the case
and explains to the Grand Jury the legal
grounds upon which the usage complained
of by the Governor is based. It cites the
precedents of former judges and courts, and
argues the necessity which is held to exist
for the exercise of a revisory power in case§
where aqule to reconsider has been entered
at the term at which the sentence
was imposed. It asserts, what is' un
doubtedly true, that this power, which
is, to all intents and purposes, a pardoning
power, "has never' been used but for the cor
rection of errors in our judgment, or in relief
of suffering, lessening punishment, never to
increase." Finally it declares its readiness to
submit the case to the Supreme Court for deci
sion,and makes a special case for that purpose
by discharging two convicts on the first of
February next, who were sentenced, last
July, to twelve months' imprisonment. This
is undoubtedly the. proper way . - to-settle this -
important practical question. The only mat
ter of regret is that it could not have been
arrived at without the degree of personal and
professional feeling which is so apparent in
the address of the Court to the Grand Jury.
SHAKESPEARE IN CONGRESS.
Wendell Phillips fell to cursing Benjamin
Franklin the other day because he taught the
American people economy, and so led the
Fortieth Congress into the horrible absurdity
of discussing, mere finance, two-penny
questions about our trifling national debt,
and debating such childish nonsense as cur
rency and trade, instead of re-instating
Mr. Stanton. Wendell discharged his•
mighty malediction at the most untimely
mr , inent when Congress was just doing what
he was cursing them for not doing, and it is
to be hoped that he will be comforted, not
only by Mr. Stanton's reinstatement, but by
the decidedly poetical turn which the debates
in Cengress are taking. Twice in a single
session, was Shakespeare introduced, on
the floor of the House yesterday;,
once in the midst of a 'debate on
the most un-Shakespearean su'lject of land
grants in lowa, and once in the sharp passage
of wits between Messrs. Bingham and Eld
ridge. Mr. Washburne trotted in the old,
familiar quotation, misquoted as usual,
"Shako not thy gory locks at me, &c.," and
Mr. Bingham laid himself open to the only
fair thrust that his adversary succeeded in
giving him, by saying that "Shakespeare gave
a fellow forty minutes to girdle the earth."
Eldridge was quick enough to retort, "Yes,
but I don't want you to go all around the
world in, giving me-an. answer." The point
was well taken. The session was decidedly
a lively, one, and the sharp encounter
betwep Bingham and Eldridge ap
pears to have infected even the reporters,
and they give the result of each
round with the particularity of a prize-fight.
Mr. Bingham, except in his Shakesporean
essay, had unquestionably the upper hand in
the fray. Mr. Eldridge's extreme • aversion
to having Mr. Bingham talk about treason, in
such plain language was a significant indica
tion of the temper of the Democratic party,
and betrayed its'sympathy with the spirit of
the rebellion more pointedly than a set speech
in favor of the rebellion would have &me.
In Select Council, yesterday, Mr. Page
offered the following resolution, which was
unanimously adopted:
Resolved, By the Select and Common Councils
of the city of l'hiladelphia. That the City Solicitor
be instructed to 'ate such en pa us may be neces
sary to prevent pereons from interfering with and
obstructing the public highway by cutting ice on
the river Schuylkill, above the data., .
The imminent probability is that if the City
Solicitor would try the experiment of en
joining the ice-cutters,be would fail of Occoin
plishing his purpose by an appeal to the Su
preme Court. The principle involved was
very clearly laid down in the mire of the City
against the old District of Spring Garden,
which was decided in the Supreme Court a
number of years ago. The authorities of
-Spring -Garden bad determined-to-erect water
works on the spot where they 'are . now in
opt.ration. The City made an application to ,
the Supreme Court for, au iejtniction to re
strain Spring Garden from proceeding with
'tire work. In the course of the argument
it via; urged, upon behalf of the
City, that the Act of the Legislature,
Lich authorized the construction of a dun
at Fairmount, gave the City the control of
the river above it and that St was an inve.4lln
of its rights for other mattes or corporations
to draw I(1 the water thus dammed up. Tae
Corot, in its decision, lid{ 1 that the water
onuiDg the liver was the free gift of God to
THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN.---PHILADETIPPITA, FP 1 IV, JANUARY 17, 18CF
all his creatures'alike, and that no law could
confer a monopoly of it. The City had
dammed the river for its own convenience,and
it had the right to use the water procured in
this way; but the building of this dam did not
disturb the rights of those who lived north of
Fairmount, and every human being had the
right to use the water. If a man or a corpo
ration bad a right to take it from the river by
the bucketfull, ho or it had a right to pump
It. So the City was defeated, and Spring
Garden built its - Water works. The fact of
water being congealed into ice certainly
does not make it any less the gift of God to
man, and if all men enjoy the right of bailing
it out with buckets or pumping it into reser
voirs, they u;inly have an equal right to
cut it with sa : and axes and' store it in ice
houses for future use. Ice has become
searcely-a less important article of use than
water itself. In the summer months it con
duces very largely to health and comfort, and
as a mere question of ,utility, well-stocked
ice-houses would carry the day against the
skating interests of the community. Hap
pily, the world is large enough for both
skater and ice-cutter, and with proper re
strictions and regulations the lover of the
popular sport_pould enjoy his gyrations while
the ice-cutter could, undisturbed, procure his
gelid commodity. Col. Page's resolution is
too sweeping. It will fail of its object and
the interests of humanity demand that it
should fail.
LIPPINCOTT'S NIACUIRINE FOR FEB..
The second number of the new Philadelphia
Magazine is now issued. Mrs. Davis's novel,
/'‘Dallas Galbraith," advances well, the story _and
the characters developing, and the promise of the
opening chapters being well fulfilled. A short
story, "Love on the Ohio," makes good use of
not very novel incidents, the clever style redeem
ing the common-place ideas. The first letter of
the London correspondent—understood to be
Louis Blanc—discusses the Roman and the Fe
nian questions ably. General Read gives a second
and concluding paper on "The Old Slate-Roof
House," which is well written and full of very in
ten sting facts. An article on '•ltistori as Marie
Antoinette," apparently Dy Miss Kate Field, will
be read with especial pleasure by the admirers of
the great actress. There is a pleasant article on
the late Fitz-Greene Balleek. 'Life and its
Enigmas," "Alaska" and "The National Finan
ces' are the several titles of well-considered
articles. There are three short poems of merit.
but thus far poetry is not the forte of Lippincott.
The editor's "Monthly Gossip" is better than last
month, and the literary notices are good.

Another Destructive Fire
Deq:ateli to tl:o Philadelphia Evening
Cilli.A4.:o, Jan. 17.—Another destructive fire
occurred here last evening, which makes a serious
addition to the large number of fires recorded
rime the beginning - of the year.
.1t about eleven o'clock last .night, fire was,
discovered in the large five-story brick building
occupied. try Starrett 6....33eatty,.manuftteturers of
agricultural implements and cutlery, on Lake
street. Owing to the large amount of combusti
ble material, the severity of the weather, and the
scarcity of water, the fire gained great headway
before the firemen got to work, and the building
and contents were completely destroyed. The
adjoining building. was crushed by the falling of
the walls. The loss is estimated at two hundred
thousand dollars.

allow some of the members, who have prepared
speeches, an opportunity to deliver them.

day, using his influence to defeat the passage of
the reconstruction hilt I am authoriaed by
