OFFICE SEEKING.
There was an interesting debate in Select
Council, yesterday, on the subject of office
seeking. An effort is being made at Har
risburg to repeal the existing law which prd
vides that members of Councils shall not be
eligible for any other municipal office during
their term as Councilmen. The law is a good
one and serves as a cheek to aspiring gentle
men who go into Councils simply as a step
ping-Stone to higher and more lucrative po
sitions. The debate, yesterday, does not ap
pear to have been at all a political one, but
the subject was discussed upon its abstract
merits. Mr. Page offered a resolution asking
the Legislature not to repeal this salutary
law, and this resOlution Wat 3 the text for the
debate. It Wid contended, on the one side,
that the law, as it now stands, is a safe-guard
against political intrigue and corruption,
and that its provisions clearly apply to the
whole term for which Councilmen are elected,
whether they resign or not. On the other
band, both Democrats and Republicans took
the ground that a member might resign at any
moment and accept another higher office.
IDne gentleman argued directly that service in
Councils entitled members to other offices,
and another thought that the law was a dis
franchising one, which the people do not re
spect, and which should be treated as "trash
of no use." After a pretty warm debate,
Felect Council adopted the preamble and reso
lution by a decided vote of nearly two to
one,without party distinction, and so declared
a preference for keeping the law as it is, This
conclusion was a wise one. Although there
are some precedents for the theory that,
„tinder the law, a member may resign his
office when he has helped himself to a
better one, we do not believe that such is the
true intent of the law. And it is far better on
all accounts that there should be this safe
guard against a most natural and common
temptation. To hold high and honorable
public office is a perfectly proper ambition
for any good American citizen, but there is
obvious danger in the opportunities that office
affords for obtaining promotion. Nomina
tions and appointments are not always made
on account of peculiar merit, but are fre
quently the result of that skillful manage-
inent which enables an official to gain and
liedd against - lhe — plivate
sitizen, in the race for "honor and emolu
ixient." The law, as it now exists, checks
this tendency, and if enforced in its full
ocope,would prevent it altogether, and would
leave all municipal officials to the quiet and
' ilidthful discharge of present duties, undis
turbed by those tempting visions of prefer
ment which necessarily engross much
time and talent that might be better eni
vklyed.
SOW PHILADELPHIA IS TREATED.
There are, in almost all families that con
tain numerous members, two distinct
slimes: the one is made up of the sharp peo
ple, who are determined upon having the full
measure of their rights, and who, while exact
ing the last copper of advantage consequent
upon their connection, decline to bear any
portion of the drawbacks and responsibilities
that are incident to all family experience.
The other class is made up of the patient ones
who quietly bear the burthens of the whole,
and who are, expected to put up with the
past possible share of advantage while bear
lag the full brunt of all the disadvantages that
socially aggregated humanity is subject
to. As it is in families; so it is
In._communities, from petty corpora
Lions to the great .family of sovereignties
t.uallod the United States. Some sections of
the country, New York city for instance, be
long to the hungry class that is always
alamorons in its demands and that is silent
as the grave when there Is any suggestion of
sesipreeal claims upon it. Philadelsia, upon
the other hand, is the maiden aunt or easy=
Aping brother,vrho is expected to keep quiet
when there are any fat things to be divided,
bat who is confidently looked to for prompt
action when there is any nursing to be done
ar any extraordinary expenditure of time or
wioney to be incurred. Ifs-Governor (7Urtio,
the course of a • recent speech, said that
d ur i n g the gloomiest times of the war reun
sylvaula always was oonhelently relict] 'von
for atipplies ovulen awl money, anu he, as
~ ix texti v e of the tits te, never allied
to meet. with= a • moody response . from
the eitf whenever an emeroxicy
arose and a dernand was made. When,
in MI the turning point of the • 'war had
_been reached, old 'when Philadelphia was
sending forth by thousands the prime of '
young men under the auspices of such organi
zations as the Union League, the Corn Ex
change and the Coal Exchange, dozens of
regiments bad to be hurried from the bard
won field of Gettysburg to subdue the ram
pant spirit of rebellion which had never been
more than half concealed in New York. Bat
New York can demand and receive huge
appropriations for federal public buildings,
while anything is deemed good enough for
her, quiet sister upon the Delaware. The con
cession of a new Post-Office and Court-Rouse
combined, that is not half large enough for
the postal and judicial wants of the city,
seems to have.impressed the federal autho
rities as the first cup of thin gruel impressed
Mr. Bumble, and we are now looked
upon as the Oliver Twist of cities because we
have timidly asked for a little more.
This little more was what the Hon. Charles
O'Neill asked for to eke out the appropriation
for the new Appraisers' stores in this city.
Twenty-five thousand dollars, a sum that
would scarcely be sufficient to pay the com
missions of a New York Alderman in the
sale of a slice off the Park as a site for a
Post-office. was appropriated to build our
new stores! Mr. O'Neill, aware of the utter
insufficiency of the amount, endeavored to
have this sum increased to seventy-live thou
sand dollars, and Mr. Washbnrne of Illinois,
who knows about as much about custom
houses as the bulk of his constituents know
about ship-building, opposed the motion to
such good purpose that the
House, yesterday, voted down the
increased appropriation. The consequence
will-be that unless more enlarged views pre
vail at Washington, the site of the old
Bank of .Perinsylvania, which, through
bungling mismanagement, has been a wreck
and a ruin ever since the days of Franklin
Pierce, will continue in a condition of dilapi
dation, an eye-sore to our people and a re
proach to the short-sighted parsimony of the
general government. It is time that our peo
ple were more mindful of their rights, and
they should accustom themselves to insist
upon it at Washington and elsewhere, that
it is not everything that is good enough for.
Philadelphia.
THE LEAGUE Isl.. 041) PURCHASE.
In the Common Council yesterday the
Committee on League Island reported an
ordinance providing for the payment of in
terest on the purchase money of the pro
perty. Quite unexpectedly there was oppo
position made to its passage, and the oppo
nents succeeded in effecting a postponement.
The usual outcry was made that the money
was due to "a soulless corporation;" and yet
if there is a corporation in this city com
prising whole-souled, liberal and enlightened
men, it is the Pennsylvania Company for In
surance on Lives and Granting Annuities, to
whom this debt is due. The interest due on
it was paid, the first year, without a word
of objection. The city is bound by
its contract to pay the interest, and,
if it fails, this whole League Island purchase
may fall through. A critical time has ar
rived, when it is vitally important that the
purchase should be consummated. There
may be a change in the Navy Department
before many weeks, and the successor to
Gideon Welles may not be as favorable to
the projected naval station as he is and has
always been. The City Councils ought to
make haste to complete the purchase; but
this delay to pay the interest on the debt is
likely to defeat it altogether. Property all
over the city has greatly increased in value
since the project was started, and the ex
tension of improvements in a southerly direc
tion has made League Island worth far more
than the rum for which the city is enabled
to purchase it. The company is
unquestionably entitled to interest, and as its
payment and the assurance' of the early es
tablishment of the naval station, will be
worth many millions to the people of Phila
delphia, the expenditure of money to pay the
back interest is a very small matter. We
hope that at the next meeting the ordinance
may be passed without further opposition.
GIRARD COLLEGE.
Se ect Caßirkesterday again passel over
the Girard College case. It is true that there,
was much interesting and important business
before the Chamber, and that the time of the
session was very fully taken up. But there
should be time taken to dispose of this im
portant subject. Although the Investigating
Committee failed to come to a unanimous
conclusion, the examination of the affairs of
the College was conducted with much impar
tiality, and the Comraittee having done so
well in this xespect, it will be
most unfortunate if they fail to com
plete their work to the public satisfaction by
permitting their reports to be smothered in
Council from a failure to call them up and
obtain action _upon them. Any gentleman
in Select Council may do this, whether he be
on the Committee or not. As the matter now
stands, it begins to look as if the ten Direc
tors are afraid of a verdict, and are using
their influence to prevent action upon the re
ports. It is, at least, difficult to account for
the continued delay upon any other theory.
MARYVILLE COLLEGE.
Maryville College is an institution located
in the central portion of East Tennessee. It
was founded in 1819, and, from its com
mencement, has exercised .& ateadyi.and.paw
erful influence in the direction of human
freedom and. progress. The free 'spirit , of
East Tennessee has been largely developed
under the influence of this College, and the,
strong loyalty of that section during the
rebellion proved that there had long been a
tone of healthy education among the people
of that' "hill-country."
The Maryville College, like most of the
public buildings which stood in the track of
the contending armies during the rebellion, suf
feud severely. The buildings were seriously
daningid and the library utterly destroyed.
hut the College has survived 'the trying
period of the war • and is now earnestly at
work in the effort to secure an •endowment of
41(3),000, ot whwhich $20,000 have already been
pledged. The Board of Trustees have dele
gated the tiev. lamrLel fitiwyer to represent

theix cause and its claims in the Eastern
States, and the appeal should meet with a
liberal response. Idaryvillo College has long
served the cause of freedom by the education
of a clads of men who go out, with an intel-
Or I
gent com prehen sien-orthe-great-principles
of human liberty, to leaven the
rn ase of ignorance and prejudice
which has been such a hindrance 'and curse
to the people of the South. Such an institu
tion has a wider field c: usefulness before it
than ever. Properly educated men are
wanted, all over the South,—men who do not
need to learn, themselves, the first principles
of a sound education as American citizens,
before they undertake to teach others, still
more ignorant than themseges. This Col-
lege is training the right kind of men for this
important work, and it should be placed, at
once, upon such a substantial basis of en
dowment as will secure it from all future
contingencies.
The State Legislature yesterday voted down
an act repealing the "act compelling the ad
mission of negroes to railway cars." The
Democratic members, who originated the
measure, voted solid for the repeal. Every
person who rides frequently in the city rail
way cars knows whether the colored fellow-.
passengers have in the main done anything to
merit this attempted lapse into wrong and in
justice, and all can judge for themselves. But
how pitiful the predicament of a party that
used to have such game as banks and tariff
to fight, that now has no nobler purpose than
to prevent poor inoffensive blacks from getting
the bent lit of their seven cents worth (if
car-riding!
Yesterday the jury in the Court of Quarter
SCESIODS brought in a verdict of guilty against a
negro charged with perjury,in accusing Gen.
Louis Wagner of having stolen a watch and
chain while the General had charge of Camp
William Penn. This verdict relieves General
Wagner from an odium which has clung to
him and injured him not a little for several
years past. The evidence upon this trial
proves conclusively that he has been the
victim of an outrageous conspiracy, so cun
ningly devised that it was extremely difficult
to,prove his innocence. Every good man in
the community will rejoice that justice has at
last been done, and that the guilty party will
be severely punished.
Yesterday, in the State Legislature, the act
changing the rules of evidence in the civil
courts of this Commonwealth, allowing all
interested parties to testify, was detested on a
second reading by a vote of 49 to :35. The fair
ness of the proposed change was so obvious
that this result will cause surprise and regret.
The reform was urged by the great majority
of the Philadelphia bar and bench, and it had
the sanction of European and American ex
pedence. The Legislature by this action has
deereed that shall continue to grope along
in the old blundering way of excluding from
the witness stand the only parties who know
anything about the matters in dispute.

CiNctroinn, March lo.—Since the first report
of the explosion of the Magnolia, the following
additional particulars have been received : A few
"Minutes previous to the disaster the engineer ex
amined the steam gunge, and says she was only
carrying 135 pounds of steam, and was entitled
to carry 140 pounds by the inspector's certificate.
" The boilers were inspected on the lith of Decem
ber last, and pronounced to be in good
. order; but the muddy water in the
boilers, which had been used since
probably burned them out. When the boat left
this port there were on board about one hundred
and forty persons, including the officer." and crow.
_Asikevegister was lost overboard and has not
been recovered, it is impossible to give any accu
rate statement in regard to the number lost, but
hem the number accounted for it is surmised
that there were about eighty lives lost. The citi
zens of California did all in their power to
alleviate the sufferings of the unfor
tunate paseengers. The faetories imme
diately suspended operations, and the
emplOgs, with shift, surrounded the wreck in
search of passengers. A few minutes before the
Magnolia left this port a young man applied to
one of the mates for employment. The mate ad
vised him to keep off the river, remarking at the
*AMC time that he was liable at any minute to ba
blown up. This mate was afterwards' severely
injured by the explosion.

HAHILISItUItG, Alsreh 20.—The great floods iu
the Susquehanna has subsided and the main lines
of railroads are ngtin in operation. The Penn
sylvania Railroad was not injured, except by the
displacement of the timbers of a small culvert on
one of the tracks near Highspire by the accumu
lating of floating logs, trees, drift-wood and
21Phria + - tram tha_rona nrhpro rnhhigh Waft
t hrown by the force of the stream on the left
bank. One hundred and fifty men were put
to work yesterday, and by noon they had the
entire line of the road cleanedand repaired,in the
beet possible running order, since which time all
the trains have been running on regular time.
The upper Susquehanna has also sub3ided. A
small portion of the track below Lock Raven, on
the Philadelphia and Erie Railroad, was washed
away, but Is new replaced. The accounts of
damages on the upper-waters were greatly exag
gered Only one bridge on the . North Botrich hav
ing been lostand that on the heaciwatefe,eeer the
New York border.
The greatest height of the freshet was four
Inches below that of the great flood of 1865, and
although it threatened at one time to be very de
structive, It has done but little damage.
Among the railroad accidents of the last few
days was the injury and partial destruction of the
roof of a passenger car by contact with a rock
while passing through a long tunnel ou the
Philadelphia and Reading Rai!road, to the great
alarm of the passengers.

THE BOUNTY , BILL.
CONTESTED ELECTION CASE.
RUMORS ABOUT MR. WADE
The Chief of the Kitchen Department
(Special Deepatch to the Philadelphia Evening Eturietin.l
WASHINGTON, March 20.—Tho Military Com
mitte to-day decided to report a bounty bill em
bodying the points contained in what is known
as the Schenck bill, excepting that it provides
that the bounties shall be paid in Government
scrip. Each soldier and sailor is allowed bounty
at the rate of eight and one-third dollars per
month for the time he was in actual service, after
deducting the State and National bounty already
paid.
It is not known to the committee how many
million acres of land it will require to pay these
bounties, no estimate having been as yet pre
pared, but in view of the very large sum of
money it would draw from the treasury
and the amount it • would increase
the public debt, the committee
have come to the conclusion that these, bounties
should be paid in land. The bill will be reported
to the House, to be printed,and then recommitted
to the Committee, and it is the intention of Gen.
Garfield, the chairman, to call it up at an early
day.
Missouri Contested Election Case.
[Special Despatch to the Phila. Evening Bulletin.]
WASHINGTON, March 20.—The Election Com
mittee this morning heard the finishing argument
of Mr. Hogan, who contests the seat held by Mr.
Pile, from St. Louis, Mo. It was expected that
the Committee would report to the House to-day
all the election cases before them,bnt the Hogan-
Pile case occupied so much of the time of the
Committee during the present week, that the
Committee postponed reporting theni until after
next Monday, when all the cases will be con
sidered.
It has been telegraphed from here that on the
prospect of Senator Wade becoming President
by the impeachment of Mr. Johnson, he has been
in receipt of many lettere soliciting appoint
ments. Your correspondent feels authorized to
say that this is a gross exaggeration, not a single
letter having been received based upon
the expectation of Mr. Wade occupying the
Presidential chair. He has received one personal
application only, and that was made yesterday
by a colored person, who was desirous of becom
ing Chief Cook of the Kitchen Department at the
White House, if Mr. Wade should re
lieve President Johnson. It is needless
to add that no encouragement was
given. False rumors are daily circulated to
the effect that Mr. Wade's cabinet has been de
cided upon. They should be treated as specula
tions, founded upon no authority whatever, as
Mr. Wade has not intimated to
any ore, even' his personal friends, whom he
should select if impeachment proves succesafal,
and there is authority for saying that he has not
even - considered the subject in his own mind.

Proposed Impeachment Rale.
[Special Deapatch to the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin.]
WABIII.I 4 IOTON, March 20.—Mr. Drake, Missouri,
tried to get before the Senate to-day a resolu
tion prescribing, as an additional rule for the
Senate, sitting as a Court of Impeachment, that,
in impeachment proceedings, the presiding offi
cer shall be addressed as "Mr. President," and
that all papers submitted to the Senate, so sitting,
shall be addressed to the Senate. Mr. Drake said
that the Senate at the inauguration of the
impeachment trial had witnessed an ex
traordinary nroceeding, when counsel for
the President had been addressing the presiding
officer as "Mr. Chief-Justice," and the managers
on the part of the House as "Mr. President;" the
President's answer to the summons was Address
ed to the " Chief Justice." Mr. Drake character
ized this as an attempt to ignore the Senate. His
resolution was objected to and went over.
The Senate has under consideration this after
noon the bill appropriating money for the Na
vajo° Indians of New Mexico.
The Department off Walrucsia.
tdpecipl Deepatch to the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin.]
WASIINGTbN, March 20.—An incorrect state
ment has gone forth to the effect that Walrcessia
has been created a separate military department.
The fact is that the Department of Columbia,
to which Walrnssia was attached, bas been sub
divided, making three departments instead of
two in the Military Division of the Pacific, and
Gen. Jeff. C. Davis has been assigned to the com
mand thereof, according to his brevet rank.
Changes of laintaryCommands•
Deepatch to the Phila. Evening Bulletin.l
WASHINGTON, March 20.—1 t is stated here this
afternoon, upon apparently good authority, that
Gen. Gordon Granger wtll be ordered to assume
command of this - District, in place of Gen.,
Emory, who is to be ordered to a new com
mand. General Hancock is expected to ar
rive here this afternoon, and the state
ment . gains credit that he will be or
dered to assume command of the Department
of the Atlantic, headquarters to be in this city.
Very little business is being done in Congress to
day. The House is debating the Miscellaneous
Appropriation bills.
The Trial of Jeff. Davie.
D. .a • , er. l v • B
WASHINGTON, March 20.—The farther post
ponement of the trial of Jefferson Davis from
March- 14th to --May-4th-will--be-officially-- an
nounced within a day or two. This change, it is
stated, is rendered necessary by the fact that the
new term of the Court commences on May 4th,
and the time intervening between Matth 14 and
May 4th is not considered sufficient to try
this case. Hence the Government has made a
further postponement of the trial.
Sentence of Murderers.
[Special to the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin, by. Frank,
lin '1 elegraph Company.]
• HARTFORD, March 20.—1 n the Supreme Court,
to-day, in the trial of Brooks and Henry for the
murder of Mr. Bradley, the jury returned a ver6
diet of guilty of murder in the second degree.
Tie Judge immediately sentenced theai to the
State prison at Weatherstild for life.
