THE TABTE FOR FINE ARTS.
Nothing is more common with those who
would asperse our country than to allude to
ns as a nation of mere “dollar-huntera;” a
people without souls above buttons; devotees
to lucre, who keep lights burning day and
night in our stores, as perpetual lamps before
the shrine of Mammon; and who rush through
life at railway speed —the one all-absorbing
idea, money, ever uppermost in our minds.
For us this slander has its best excuse in
the'ignorance of those uttering it; but for
those who so disparage us, it would be a
wholesome lesson to visit the studio of Mr.
Edward Moran, at 704 Walnut street, on
Wednesday afternoons, and there see some
thing of our national proclivities, as evidenced
in this department of art-painting. Mr. Mo
ran is so well known to fame, as one of our
greatest artists, that to sound his praises here
would be supererogatory; but it is no Email
compliment to his worth and ability to have
to state that, despite his constant refusal to
allow his time and work to be broken in upon
by the demands of pupils for instruction, he
has been forced to yield to, the earnest solici
tations of the community, aDd permit a class
to meet once a week at his studio. Sj much
had report spoken of the extraordinary pro
gress made by the members of this class, tha'
we were tempted to witness some of its ef-
forts, and accordingly on last Wednesday we
presented ourself and were admitted to the
atelier of Moran. There, amid a hundred
glorious sketches—beauteous effects snatched
from nature —that hung upon the walls; amid
appurtenances of music and poetry that
met the eye in every quarter of the
room, suggestive of the Sybaritic qualities
of the artist’s mind; amid quaint natural
specimens of stuffed owls and hornets’ nests
that looked like so many lay figures for a
painting of the creation —there, assembled
around the easel of the artist, was a group of
figures which we saw at once was the class.
It was a motley throng, composed of no oue
order of men, but rather a sort of congress of
representatives from every class of society—a
living sketch from life of the nature and
character of our social scenery. Astute la w-
yew, doctors of physic and metaphysics,
mnsical composers, star actors, popular
■writers and ordinary tradespeople—all were
there, eagerly cultivating a taste far-'that art
which only the few in other countries ever
think of indulging themßelves in the study oh
and only the bloated plutocrats have the
means to possess and set up in their palaces
as a household god.
Amongst those present we noticed such
prominent men as Craig, M&ckuy, Barton
Bill, James and Everly, of the Arch Street
Theatre; Bi6hop, the musical composer;
Hugh Davids, and Dr. J. T. Doyle,of literary
iame.and several others,whose very presence
lent a charm to the occasion, and whose
brilliant conversation and spa riding wit
throughout, the entire time of our stay re
in indedtls lttfio small degree of the days that
were, when men as Gibbon,and li trace
Walpole,and Garrick,and Johnson,and G ild •
smith,and Burke and Foote made a brilliant
cluster-ring round the easel of SirJoßhua
Reynolds.
All the class, except Dr. Doyle,
ftlr. Bishop and Mr. Hugh Davids,
are mere tyros in paiuuug, never
having pul brush to cauvas before this season-
Dr. Doyle we can scarcely call an amateur,
Bmce his workß have appeared iu public: bat
he is one of “the class,” and decidedly the
most ambitious picture of the lot is his figure
painting of the Irrsh dance-house. It is as
yet not sufficiently far advanced for us t >
offer an opinion as to its merits, but judging
by what he has done heretofore, we ex
pect great things. Mr. Bishop, too, has ven
tured some —though not by any means the
best,from what we know —of his productions
into public notice. His most rntriuriu j i
workß are some sparkling little pictures of
scenery near Cork, taken from nature, aud a
number representing scenery of the Brandy
wine river class ; but whether from diffi
dence in himself or in the appreciation of
others, he Eeldom exhibits these except to a
few. Mr. Hugh Davids is sufficiently far ad
vanced to take to the field; and iu his wrest
lings with nature for her beauties he has come
off wondrously triumphant iu some very
happy efforts. He will have to look out,
though, that he is not overtaken and beaten
in the race by Messrs. Craig and Mackay.
They are not yet a dozen lessons old in the
art, but there is in their copies a boldness of
touch, a freedom of execution, and withal a
delicacy of treatment, which iB perfectly won
derful for such neophytes. In tact, it is
almost impossible to believe that theirs are
the efforts of men only beginning to manage
color.
This precocity in art,exhibited most mark
edly in those gentleman, and scarcely in a
less deg Tee by Mr. Barton Hill, is due in a
great measure, it is claimed, to the mode of
instruction adopted by Moran, who takes
much-the same view ol teaching painting that
, nil modern systems do of making persons
conversant with a language foreign to them.
The teacher of languages now a-days kuows
that the great desire of his pupil u to be ante
to converse in the new tongue, and so be ul
THE DAILY EVENING BDLLBTIN—PHILADELPHIA THURSDAY, FEBKUAIIY IS. 1869.
lows him to become acquainted with it col
loquially before he bothers him with the dry
rules and mathematical details which are to
govern it—a plan which renders the study
easier, because more attractive. Moran, on
the same principle,gratifies the swelling ambi
tion of biß pupils by letting them familiarize
themselves with color and its management,
before he applies rules which govern form,
perspective, and so forth. Color, he con
tends, is to the picture what words are to
language; and he talks to his pupils with
colors on a canvas as one would write a sen
tence on a piece of blank paper. He does
not allow his class to paint in his studio, but
merely permits them to see him paint what
ever effect a member of the class in his turn
will select; and then he expects each one to
try his haDd at the same effect, and submit it
to him at the next class meeting.
Before him on the easel he places a canvas,
asy 18 inches by 22. The blank surface is
the silence to be brokeD. “The class'
gather around and are all attention. A color,
say yellow, is rapidly worked over the upper
half of the canvas. It is the first word, yet is
expresses nothing; but following it in quick
succession, and blended into each other have
and there, come bines, and reds, and greens,
and browns, and the compounds ol these.
Glorious soft pearl gray lints appear m the
midst of which objects begin to form. Laud
stands forth from sky; water reflects images;
trees springing upward throw long shadows.
How beautiful! The artist’s thoughts are
tiansposed to the canvas and recognized by
those around. They all know that what he
has said to them on that canvas is—“tranquil
sunset o’er the landscape.” They have noted
how he said it; what was the order and man
ner of his words; and repeating them over in
their own minds, they go away the richer by
so much art as enables them, however clum
sily at first, to express “tranquil Bunset o’er
the landscape.”
This growing taste for fine arts, so general
with all classes amongst us, is neither so much
noticed nor so much appreciated as it ought
to be. It is a fact not only creditable to us as
a people, and contradictory of the aspersions
upon us to which we have before alluded,
but its importance, as significant oi our rapid
progress as a nation,cannot be overvalued.
The history of the world tells us that the
fine arts generally have always been the com
panions of commercial progress, and have
only flourished in proportion as commercial
prosperity afforded leisure and encouragement
tor their cultivation. They had rise with the
first dawn of civilization and learning in the
East. They traveled westward from Egypt
to Greece, and from Greece to Rome, gather
ing strength and excellence on their way, pro
portionate to the greater increase of civilizing
influences. They reached a perfection never
before attained duriDg the splendid days of
Italy’s commercial prosperity; and thence, as
the tidal wave of commercial power flowed
onward through the Hanseatic towns into the
Netherlands, and all over Europe,they spread
themselves with it, and with it a greater power
than ever on they come—still Westward
hoi—to a people“terrible and strong and pow
erful from their beginning hitherto.”

HAKKienrno. Feb. 17, 1869—An Important de
cision was mnde yesterday by the Senate, in the
matter of exempting property from taxation.
The Governor, early in the present session, in
vetoing ono of these bills, expressed his senti
ments in regard to this class of legislation, but
several hove been passed since that time, as if
metely to court a veto. Among the bills on the
private calendar yestorday was one proposing to
exempt from taxation a number of properties be
longing to Odd Fcllowb’ Associations in Phllade!
phis and other counties, and as soon as read,
Senator Nagle rose and said the sense of the Sen
ate might as well be tested at once as to whether
ilsev desired such improper legislation to be suc
cessful or not. The vote was taken, ana -i
voting in the negative to B In the affirmative, i|
was decided that ench associations were not
charitable, and it would bo unjust and improper
<o relieve them. It is to be hoped no more such
legislation will be attempted.
1 understand that two Important changes have
taken place officially hereabouts—one is the ap
pointment of Mr. McClure, a son-in-law of Uriel
Clerk George W. Hamersly, and nephew of Mr.
Wien Forney, the State Librarian,to the position
of Assistant Librarian, vice Mr. Morgan, who
has held the position Blnce Its creation. Mr. Mc-
Clure is a young lawver who has resided hire
for some months, and is a very estimable gentle
man. The other change is in the promotion ol
Mr. J. N. Du Barry from the General Superin
tendency pf the Northern Central Railroad to the
Vice-Presidency thereof, and the appointment as
General Superintendent of Mr. A. R. Fiske, ot
the Shamokin Valley Railroad.
The following railroad bills have recently been
introduced: „
Ono grnnting to the Catawissa Railroad Com
panv all the privileges granted to the Philadel
phia aDd Erie Railroad Company by the act ol
March 23, 1866. The act of 1866 has three sec
tions, and contains the following provisions:
Tbnl the company may at any time construct
brunches from any points on the main line to
points in any counties through which the nmiu
line pusses, or in uny adjoining conuty, with all
the same rights, privileges and powers in respee,
to location, construction and management as arc
'confetred bv their charter and supplements n,
resold to the main line; they shall have power
to issue bonds not exceeding $30,000 per mile,
and shall have the right to croes with their branches
uny other railroad ut gr ide.and connect wim uuv
olhtr rouds. 8o yon see the piivilcges desired
by the Culawissa will, if granted, make rather in
extensile corporation ot it. . , . , .
One pioviding that by a vote of the stockhold
ers ot the Bethlehem Railroad Company, such
rates of Ireitthl and drawback may be altowid to
persons or corporations purchasing the ‘«-
pant’s bondß as mav be agreed upon. It also
provides that where any person shall have become
seized and possessed of lands along said road,
subsi qnent to the survey having beon made, hu
shall not be eutltled to any further damages, or
by reaeon of the construction of the road, than
the actual cash value of iho land ut the time cf
the sutvey thereof. .. ,
Mr. Billinglelt, the Chairman of the Senate
Commitue on retrenchment and reform, this
morning took the Senule somewhat by surprise,
by ottering a resolution having for its object
other the aoolishing of the Commission to revise
the civil code appointed by resolution of April,
1867, the modilj ing ol the resolution so as to
reduce the number of the Commission,or so as to
make them ail p< rtorm their duties faithfully.
The resolution of 1867 authorized the Governor
to appoint three Commissioners, and appropri
ated $16,000 to pay the expenses, their report to
be made within two years. Soon after the bill
onset d, the Governor appointed as Commis
sioners Messrs. W. N. Clay Hall of Bedford;
Judge Deriekson, ol Crawlord, and Wayne_ Mac-
Vtigb, of Westchester, at a salary of $3,000
each per annum. In April, 1868. the Legislature
granted them until 1871 to finish th% work,
which is necessarily one of great labor if pro
perly attended to. Messrs. Hall and Deriekson
have faithfully carried out the letter and spirit
of the law appointing them, and not a
word has been said in reference to either of them
neglecting their trusts; but of their colleague
much has bien said aloud, and more whispered,
as to his n<gleet of duty, although drawing a
' large salary, until report has taken such a posi
tion that the Chairman of the Committee on Re
! trenebment would have been false to his oath
hod be longer hesitated to call the attention of
: the Senate to it. He accordingly ottered a reso
lution requiring Ihu Committee on General Jn
: dietary lo investigate tbe matter. In this con
\ m ction.l may ssv that some days ago the Senate
passed a resolution, requiring the Commission to
report some ot the bills they had prepared, but
for some reason it has been smothtred in tbe
Hooee. It will not do for legislators to be con
stahtlv bickering about the pay of pasters and
folders, and yet permit three thousand dollars to
; be taken every year out of the treasury without
I receiving an t quivalenl for tbe investment.
Speuking of posters and folders reminds me
that tbe House ibis morning decided to discharge
tbe twenty-seven additional officers, illegally au
thorized early in tbe Beesion. on condition that
the Senate will consent to their being paid to
date. Without this consent they emuot receive
a copper, and from the present disposition of tbe
Semite it is very probable that the recommeuda
liou of Mr. McMiller, of Montgomery, that each
meu.her contribute out of bis private parse*, iu
order to secure tbe aggregate amount necessary
to oanetl the obligation, will have to be adoptee.
In the course of the debate It lurned oat that the
JJemoeruts were slightly interested in the matter,
liomthefuct that they had one or more em
ployes of Ibelr persuasion on tbe list, a novel
conciliation on tbe. part of tin: majority.
Tbe ball of Ihe Holme has been crowded this
nftirnoon with legislators and citizens, witness
ing nn exhibition by about a dozen of the pupils
ol vour Deal and Dumb Institution, who came
hire nndcr the churge of James J. Barclay, E J q
Tbe exhibition was exceedingly interesting, and
will doubtless bring about the desired iuerease in
the Appropriation bill.

Tit as-row, Feb. 17.—1 u the Senate, Mr. Wtl
drick introduced n bill to authorize the Bouth
bide Rujlroad to build a bridge across the Dela.
ward.
Mr. Cobb, a supplement to the charter of the
New York and Elizabethtown Railroad.
A bill was brought up on its third reading au
thorizing the Secretary of the Senate and Clerk
of the House to beep an enrolled journal of the
minutes of both Houses, and to be paid 10 cents
per folio therefor. Mr. Little (president) took
the floor, and opposing the passago of the bill,
said there was no necessity whatever for such a
journal, and that as the General Government
vicie about to begin a system of retrenchment, it
Is time that we should do likewise. Mr. Hopper,
advocating the bill, said It would cost the State
about $6OO, and as to tbu General Government,
they promised retrenchment, hut that was all.
On motion, tbo bill Was recommitted.
The act to Incorporate the Tuckerton and At
lantic Railroad came up on ila second rending,
and the Ovtr-watchful Mr. Cobb discovered that
I It did not enutuin in proper form tbo usual tax
clause, which is contained In all railroad hills
which have been chartered duriug the past five
or tlx years. This was followed by an earnest
discussion between Messrs. Hopper and Little,
tbe former contending that the lax clause was a
serious drawback to tho development of the nat
ural resources of tho State, and lhaf there were
millions ol dollars lu the pockctß of individuals
and in tho banks of the Btutc which did not pay
one cent to the State. Mr. Little, in reply, said
I that we have established the principle oi. taxing
railroads to which charters had been grunted
dUringthe past few y.eare, < pr'mclpte.he
believed to be n just onfii and ,thaHf we_dld n t

mode of taxation being to tax property wherever
f °Tho' dcbato iook a wide range, and spows
clearly that such bills are not likely toget
through this seealon without being.mado toicon
tribute their share to the Stale and government.
The amendment of Mr Cobb was adopted and
the bill ordered to a th rd reading. The transit
bill was made the special order of the day lor
“Yn The 6 Hoiißo e tho < blll to incroaeo thorovonnos

no injustice; they are reaping large profits and

lowing this with a bill taxing those railroad

be compared in classification wilhtheprosent

Quarterly return of the Camdon and Amboy
Railroad and Transportation Company shows
bat the freight, at 15 cents per ton, amounted to

and packages, only reached the Bum of f 25C
returns may be considered a counterpart
of all other returns ol the same company for the
same vear. It is therefore apparent that any re
duction in freight, to affect the revonnes ol the
Slate, must occur in the freights paying 15 cents
°Vhe e repert sums up that by th ® Pr op °^, ,i „ r ®'
ductlon, the loss to the State would be ©94,333
Any computation respecting tho doubling or
freights would seem illusory, sinco the act, if
passed, begins the reduetion on the first day ot
January, and the increase of freight, like any
other business, is progressive.

This great enterprise is rapidly approaching completion.
0600) sixteen hundred miles have been built by
two (2) powerful companies; the Union Pacific Railroad*
beginning at Omaha, building west, and the Central
Pacific Railroad, beginning at Sacramento, and building
east, until the two roads shall meet Only two hondrel
miles remain to be built Tho greater part of the Interval
is now graded, and it is reasonably expected that the
through connection between San Francisco and New York
will be completed by Juno 1.
As the amount of Government aid given to each is de
pendent upon the length of road each shall build, both
companies are prompted to great efforts toeecarcMjp
construction and control of what, when
be one and the onli vrand Railroad Line connect* to the
A tlantic and Pacific coaste.
One Hundred and Twenty Million Dollars (812O.W0.W0)
Id money have already been expended by the two power
ful companies engaged in this great enterprise, and they
w Ul speedily complete tbe portipn jet to be built.
The Government aid to the Union Paeific Railroad and
the Central Pacific Railroad may be briefly summed up
as follows:
First The right of wa7 and ail necessary timber and
stone from public domain
Second—lt makes a donation of 12.800 acres of land to
tbc mile, which, when tho road is completed,will amount
to t a entytbree million l23.fui,uOU> acres.
Third—lt loans tbe companies fifty million dollars
(gte.uou WO), for which it takes a second lien.
The Government has already loaned the Union Paeific
Railroad twenty fivo million nine hundred and raveatr
eight thousand dollars (625.97d.U00), and to the Central
Pacific Railroad seventeen million nine hundred and
sixty four thousand dollars (817.W1000), amounting In ail
to forty-three mfliion nine hundred and forty-two thou
sand dollars ($43,942,000).
The Companies are permitted to Issue their own First
Mortgage Bonds to tbe same amount as they receive from
the United fitatea. and no more. Tbe companies have
told to permanent investors upwards of ($48,000,000) forty
mllUan dollar* of their Flrwt Mortgage Bonds. The com
panies have already paid in (including net earning* not
divided, grants from State of California, and Sacramento
city and ban Francisco), upwards of ($25,000,110 twenty
five million dollars of capital stock.
WHAT IB THERE YET TO BE DONE!
In conridcrin* I hi. quartlon it nmet be remembered that
&11 the remaining Iron to finish tbe road la contracted far.
and tho la:Rf ft portion paid far and now delivered on tbe
line of the L'ulon Pacific Railroad and tbc Central Pacific
Railroad, and that tbe grading la almost finished.
WHATi RESOURCES HAVE THE COMPANIES TO
Kirrt They will receivo from the Government a* the
road progreeae* about
ifc7.uOQ.iXW additional
Second They can n*ue their own ITret Mortgage
Bonds tor about
s7,uuo 000 additional.
'liitrd The companies now hold almost all the land
they have up to this lime received from the Government;
uron the completion of the road they will hare received
in all -.a.uco.iuj acrec. which at SI &0 per acre would bo

effect that Virginians were given to drunkenness,
and their clergy were not exempt from this frailty,
the Judge read several extracts from the Bibfe,
and closed by Instructing the jury to teach this

on account of color. The Jury brought a ver
dict for $1,600 damages for the plaintiff.
From North Carolina,
Extract of a letter dated
Wilmington, N. C., Feb. 15, 1869.—The resi
dents and real estate owners of this section of the
country are glad to learn that Northern capital
ists arc at least awakened to the importance and
value of the agricultural resources of this State.
Wo havo recently been visited by a number of
gentlemen from Philadelphia, Boston, New York
and other cities, the most of whom have pur
chased largely.
A lew dayr ago a number of gentlemen from
your city surveyed and examined a tract 0f60,000
acres of land, lying at the head of the Albem arlo
Sound, between tbe Roanoke and the Pamlico
rivers, for Lbe purpose ol organizing a lumber
company. They have secured a cUarler from the
State authorizing tbe construction of a railroad
from Plymouth to Jayoesviile, which will run six
teen miles through their tract of land. This
property Is heavily timbered with plne.cedsr and
cypress of the most valuable kind.
The northern line of their bonndary
is only four and a half miles from tbe Roanoke
river, from which point lumber can bo shipped
to Norfolk by tbe Albemarle and Cnrritack
Bounds. Tho charter privileges secured by
these gentlemen are of the most nattering charac
ter, authorizing them to construct a railroad any
where in the State for the purpose of developing
thtir land. In addition to this, a railroad is to
be hnlit from Edenton to Suffolk,
widen will place their property within
five hours' rido of Norfolk, Va. Tho great value
of the timber-land now being purchased by
Northern capitalists is well understood. The
land, when cleared, can be sold at from $2O to $25
per acre, and the lumber, when sawed, cut and
forwarded to market, will not only pay for the
original property, bnt leave a handsome surplus
for the millers.
The property to which we allude is located In
Martin and Beaufort counties. W.
