There have been since Ash-Wednesday no masquerades or other grand balls, amateur theatricals have been suspended, and society is doing penaace at dinner parties, supper parties, musica l parties, parties for the public theatres, morn ing and evening receptions, promenade con certs and other touching contrivances for the mortification of the flesh during the great season of fasting that is recognized by the Christian world. The attendance at the churches, on week-days as well as Sundays, is very affecting. Piety in point-lace, devo tion in diamonds, veneration in velvet—these are affecting sights that can be seen at almost any of the Lent-observing churches,at almost any of the services of the week. Sackcloth and ashes never were so costly, so splendid, so picturesque and so becoming as they are in this Lenten season of 1869. There can be no doubt that the Parisian modisteß are especially to be thanked for the fine effects of color, costume, drapery and head-gear that now make a fashionable com pany assembled for genteel worship so in teresting a spectacle. The Grecian bend is most effective at obeisances and genuflexions. The panier, Which is inconvenient while seated in a narrow pew,is quite striking when its wearer bows before the Throne of Grace. A fashionable chignon, of the new sackcloth and ashes style, with its trimming of bonnet, flowers, feathers and ribbonß, is wonderful in the street, but very majestic and solemn izing when it is bowed in humble adoration at chnrch. When a multitude of these chignons, adorned wi h an infinite variety of colored fabrics, go down simulta neously at the name of the Saviour, and recover again simultaneously, the effect upon a spectator, ignorant of the full meaning of - Christian humility, must be overpowering. So all possible gratitude is due to the French inventors of new designs in sackcloth and ashes, which give us such fine spectacles in this period of fasting, prayer and penance. Make piety picturesque and luxurious, and the work of evangelizing the world on fash tonable principles can go on rapidly and easily. In the matter of fasting, in the ordinary tense of the word, the habits of good society are deserving of especial mention. Not more than four meals a day are indulged in, ac cording to common report, during this period of religious eadness and self-denial. When it is added that at these onfestive boards there is nothing offered to the fasters beyond the delicacies that the market affordß, some idea may be formed or the severity of the regimen. As a special expression of faith, humiliation, penitence and devotion, preference is often given to choice fishes, to terrapins, to oysters, to omelettes, (bouQUuh, au rhum, <kc.j hud various preparations of eggs; and these, after moderate indulgence in forbidden meats, salads and vegetables, and when w ashed down with Sherry, Champagne, Madeira and other liquids appropriate to a period of mortifica tion, will, perhaps, snflice to keep the &shionable and pious body and soul together until the arrival of Easter permits of greater indulgence. The vulgar woria has thus been informed of some of the practices of self-denial that prevail in the higher circles of society during a time of general fasting, humiliation and prayer. Of the deeper mysteries, the little dances, the whist and euehre matches, the musical meetings and other gatherings for mortifying the flesh and subduing the pride of life, that mark the season of Lent in this good community, we forbear to venture upon a description. It may, however, be men tioned that next week, when there will be Btil) greater austerity and sadness, a course of opera bouffe is to be added to the opportuni ties of piety and penance that are offered to the Philadelphia fashionable world. Les sons in religion, morality and virtue, prepared in Paris by eminent au thors, set to Offenbach’s Baored music, and acted by some of the most religious of French actors and actresses, are to be offered to the piously inclined people who are practising fashionable penances this Lent. By the time II ,ly Week arrives, it i*> presumed lhat there will be still new modes of increasing the rigor of the fast and the se verity of the discipline now fashionable If the beau monde should survive all these trials and self-denials, it will to be al lowed ft course of bills aud whe , Easter arrives. Such ftauotiiy, such devotion and such self-abasement U-.-bsrve some aon ~i reward In this world, without wuitiug tbr o uo in the next. ... , ' TUB TENURE OP OFFICE BILL. ThecßUCHßof the RepublicanSenators,yes terday, throws light upon the considerations which are operating to defer the repeal of the Civil Tephre of Office Law. , Thera is evi dently no desire on the part of the Senate to keep this restraint, so necessary to control the head-strong and perverse Johnson, upon General Grant, or, if there is such a desire, it is limited to a few Senators, whose chiei concern is to look out for their own friends now in office. The reason avowed in cansns yesterday is,undoubtedly, the true one. Con gress has had - ’ such experience of Andrew Johnson's insolence in the shape of veto mes sages that there is a strong wish to avoid any further unnecessary displays of the virulence of bis unruly tongue and pen. It is therefore proposed to postpone the repeal of the bill until onr great National Obstruction is out of the way. „ The argument that this postponement is a declaration of want of confidence in General Grant is shown to be a shallow pretence, by the fact that it is urged by Senator Cameron, who baa been foremost, for months past, in endeavoring to force appointments npon General Grant by the forestalling scheme which'was so happily defeated by the ma jority of the Senate. Whatever other claims Mr. Cameron may possess, he can scarcely be accepted as the gn&rdian of General Grant’s right to make his' own appointments. If this pt stpenement of the repeal of th© Tenure of Office Law is simply for the rea sons urged before'the Senatorial caucus, yes terday, there is no objection to it. But the Senate should lose no time, after the 4th of Mareh, in removing this restriction from the hands of General Grant. The law was un doubtedly enacted for the specific purpose of curbing the mischievous abuse of power in the hands of a bad man, of whom the country rejoices to be rid. The same country desires to give General Grant the fullest opportunity to carry out his policy of retrenchment and reform; and it will look to the Senate to give him the same.generouß confidence and hearty co-operation which the people, themselves, desire to extend to the man of their choice. There are, undoubtedly, here and there iu the Senate, men whose whole souls are absorbed iu the one idea of the distribution of patronage; men whose highest conception of the value of the Sena torship iB that it enables them to punish their enemies and to reward their friends. Bui such men are in a very small minority, and influence exerted from such motives as these cannot long survive contact and comparison with high, patriotic principle, real statesman ship, and official integrity. We desire to trust the Senate; and the Sen ate must be ready to trust President Grant He can no more transcend his lawful powers, and no more throw himself across the strong current of the people’s will with impunity, than can any other man. He has no wish to do so; but if he had, the same power that said to Andrew Johnson : “Thus far shall thou go and no farther,” would interpose the same barriers of constitutional law, and im pose the Bame wholesome restraints which were laid upon his predecessor. The confidence whioh the people repose in General Grant is deep and abiding. He has honestly won it, and he will gracefully and honorably wear it. The confidence of the people in the (Senate will be measured by the sincerity and generosity of the support which it extends to the new President in the tre mendous task which Andrew Johnson’s wretched administration has left tor him to do. VITAJL STATISTICS. An abstract of the report of the Births, Marriages and Deaths in Philadelphia, for tbe year 18GS, is printed in another part of to day's paper. Briefly it states that the births cumbered 17,2511, 'the marriages (1,371, and the deaths (uot including the still-born) 13.391. The distribution of these among the various wards and the months in which they occurred, will be found stated in the report. The figures can only be regarded as approxi male. Nobody believes that in a city where over thirteen thousand deaths occur, there are only a little over seventeen thousand births. But the report says lhat there is gnat delinquency in reporting births, and a comparison of the number with those o! former years shows that this delinquency i iucreasing rather than diminishing. The physicians do not always report births, and niaDy births occur without the attendance ol physicians, and of co urse no one feels obliged to report these. The neglect of Aldermen to report marriages that take place before them makes the number of these smaller than i: shouid be. Tbe deaths are probably reported with accuracy, because no interment can take place without a report of the death and its cause. The number of deaths last year, 14,- is very small for a city of at least 800,000 inhabitants. It is but little more than the number in 1801, and is about a thousand less than the average of the past eight years. The city, during the yea* 1808, was sin gularly free from epidemic and contagious diseases. Of small pox, which has raged in other parts of the country,there was only one death. There were no cases of epidemic cholera, but a large number 0)89) of cholera infantum. Consumption carried off 1,995, or more than one-seventh of the whole number that died. The deaths of children under one year numbered 4,601, or more than one-third of the whole number. On the other hand, there were 82 deaths of persons over 90 years old, 12 of them being over 100 and 1 over 1 10. There are many other interesting facts in the report, which the reader curious in statistics will readily discover. The attention of readers ip directed to the annual statement oi the Connecticut Mutual Life Insurance Company, published in another column in conformity to law. The Company was organized ih 18IG, and has at tained to - extraordinary proportions, having a membership ol over r,r, ,000—counting its assets by more than $22,000,000, and with an annual income exceeding $9,000, Being purely mutual, there are no stock holders to absorb i s profits, which are divided annually among iu policy-holders. The CoiVptiry is strongly commended to all those set lung hie insurance, and they are directed to 'Mr General Agent, Walter 11.

The private collection,pf paintings belonging to.C. W. T. Calvert Esq., now arrayed in the gallery of Mr. Scott, has already been- inspected by onr principal connoisseurs, who will compete for tho beßt examples on Thursday evening. Tho collection is small, numbering sixty-nine pic tures, and the artists are mostly German and American ; a few french; and English painters; are however '' found in the' catalogue.—' There Is n head by Sully, (27) painted about 1850, with all-that artist’s refinement; a landscape by Lewis (51) containing qnalltlei which be has never exceeded; and some other Philadelphia names, finch as Hamilton, W. T. Richards and E. Moran. Besides these, there are a few really good Dilsscidorf plctnres, ench as thnt by Lltecbauer, and Flemish ones, such as the Ghent artist Van dor Win's subject “Grossing the River,” 69, and Hulck\ “Wharf 'Seeno,’’3o.—Wo cannot, however, particularize the collection to. day, bnt will endeavor to-morrow to find room for on examination in detail, tyhich may assist those who will wish to select intelligently. One of the pictures Is a curiosity;— a large ex ample of Raonx, of undoubted authenticity; this is a painting of the seventeenth century, id an excellent state, and of an Interesting subject; it Is a lady with a bird, costume of the time of the Grand Monarch.

For Illustrated Circular and price, apply to THE HARRISON BOILER WORKS Gray’* Ferry Road, near 0. S, Araenal, Philadelphia, February 12th, 1869. Joseph Harrison , Esq., Philadelphia — Deab Sib : The Harrison Boilers of 300 horse power, ordered in December, 1866, for the Fly month (Mass.) Cordage Company, have given excellent results. When doing the same work as the com pany’s old boilers (which are of the fire-box line variety, of the best construction and in first-close order), a saving of abont 20 per cent, in fuel has been effected. The new boilers were erected to supply steam for a Condensing Beam Engine of 500 P., and no difficulty is experienced in obtaining an ample quantity ; in fact, a surpins of steam for all re quirements. 1 would, however, argue in this connection the advantage of having an excess of boiler power, on the ground of the greatly di minished consumption of fuel which is sure to follow, for instance: two 50 P. Harrison Boilers furnisbed'an abundance of steam for the engine above referred to, where developing about an average of 175 P.; two additional 50 P. boilers were attached (making four In all), and the de crease in the consumption of coal was fully one seventh. In conclusion, it glveß me pleasure to state that I regard the Harrison Boiler with the highest favor as a safe, reliable and economical steam generator, and believe, with proper management, its durability and freedom from repairs will prove additional recommendations for It.

Prematnrc Discharge of a Cannon. The Harrlsburgh Telegraph of last evening says: During the firing of the salute from the Capitol Park, at noon to-day, in honor of the anniver sary of Washington’s Birthday, and while George Church and Marshall Quay were engaged in charging the cannon, it prematurely went off, sending the ramrod a considerable distance The thumb of Quay’s right hand was blown off, and the left hand so mangled as to render its amoata tion necessary at the wrist His face was also'con siderably burned by the powder. Church’s right baDd and wrist were injured to such an extent that they had to be amputated below the elbow. Mr. George Church is a nephew of Mrs. Governor Geary, and SPrved faithfully daring the war, losing a leg at Fredericksburg. He was a member of Co. C., 6th Regt., Pennsylvania Reserves. Mr. Quay was also in the service during the war, and belonged to one of the Re serve regiments. He was also a member of the police force under Mayor Ed wards. The unfortunate men were taken into the arsenal after the accident, where the injured limbs were amputated and properlv dressed. Dr. Rutherford. Drs. C. and REL Beiler, Dr. H. B. Bnehler and Dr. H. L. Orth were present and rendered all the assistance in their power tor the relief of the sufferers. P. 11.

The midnight obsequies of Whelan are graphi cally described in the Toronto Telegraph-. Sheriff Powell, who has shown a due respect for all the religious ceremonials, and afforded every facility to the clergy who have been in constant attend ance, 6ent for a priest, and informed him that the burial of the body was to take place, and ihus afforded the chance of performing Ihc last rites and prayers, and the blessing of the ground. This service, which is in iisc-lf solemn and imposing, was performed in a most impressive manner. “In a few minutes more a soltmn procession appears. They are CO Trying a rough pine box. in this is tho body. They approach. It is lowered in its placd. The shovels fly smartly. The earth rattles with a dull, harsh sound pn the coffln-lid. It is covered up. The snow-white emblem of innocence and purity is placed over the Bpot, thus obliterating all marks that might indicate tho last resting place of Palrick James Whelan. This is the end. The work done, the moon burst ont from under a cloud and ponred over the gruve her silver light Tho stars twinklod and sparkled like diamonds in the Armament above. The dust has been committed to dnat,and the clods in a prison-yard cover from sight the remains of a murderer. When Mra.

Their disappointment is great. ” Humor says there will be some very startling revelations made when the disposal of the rewards is announced, amounting to $19,009. This, it is said, will be a new bone of contention. t'HOia NfiW lOBK« New York, Feb. 23— In the Court of General Sessions yesterday, Recorder Haekett sentenced another burglar to the Penitentiary for five years.

An affidavit from John J. Blair, President of the road, was read, in which he fully defends them from every charge. Senate.— The Committee of Conference on the constitutional amendment are Messrs. Stew art, Conklins: and Edmunds. [House—Continued from Third Edition ] The baltimoreaus, in turn, had invited him to stop at their city, on his way to Tennessee, and enjoy their hospitality. While he would be re velling Id the Monumental City, the hardy miners on the banks of Lake Superior would, if the bill should fail to pass over the veto, be suf fering from his obstinate actions. He then proceeded to review the message of the President, arguing that there was nothing in the provisions of the bill which made it a tar upon the Industry of any part of the country. Mr. Broods (N. Y.) had fifteen minutes yielded him by Mr. Bchenck, and said that when a per son bad a bad cause to defend he frequently went off to side iseues. The gentleman from Michigan, Mr, Blair, bad abused the author of the veto, instead of answering its arguments. He (Mr. Brooks) was as much interested in the copper bueimsa as the gentleman from Michigan, yet he would not inflict any injury upon the whole country for the soke of his own constituents. Copper stock had gone up in New York from 6 to 10 per cent, eince the bill has passed the House, and but for the prospect of a veto they would have gone up 10 per cent. more. It was to the interests of the monev dealer that the bill should pass over the veto. The bill itself was an iniquitous measure; It Barack at some of the most important interests of and ho hoped it would not pass. ~ Mr. Pike appealed to braun of the House (the Republican) to vote of the mea sure itself and not upon Anarew Johnson. The House has passed the copper bill over the veto by a vote of 116 to 56. Specie Shipment, Nkw York, FVb 23 —Tbe Allemania sailed to day for Hamburg with $86,000 in specie.
