COTJIfT UE GOBINEAtJ,
Thename of this French writer and dis
tinguished gentleman is , not as well known,
WA believe, bb it deserves to be. in Our coun
try. ' Hence we. were gratified to bear it
whispered in Jiterajy circles, that the vener"
able Doctor Meigs, of this city, is about to
publish, after the French, a recent and very
interesjiiijg wdri of hjifi friend the Count We
bow learn that such a volume is nearly ready,
from the presß of Messri. Claxton; Remsen &
Baffelfinger, and feel sure it will be read
with the greater pleasure; on account of the
two eminent uames through which it come 6
to the American-public; they are good guar
rantee of the value of the booh.
It is not theleaht interesting fact, in this
connection, that Doctor Meigs bringsout the
work In English, -as an act o£ disinterested
admiration for the author, with 1 whom he is
only acquainted through hifl works and as a
correspondent,
The above-named firm send ns Sloan’s
Architectural Jieview and American
JBuitders' journal for March, filled with
architectural ‘ infonnation, and withprojec
tio’ns, mostly of actual buildings by architects
.of talent W G observe among these a careful
engraving of the new building on Washington
Eqnare erected, by Mr. Addison Hutton, a
rising architect of the most reliable character,
for the time-honored Philadelphia Saving’s
Fund Society. The Builder’s matter,of which
the above is a specimen, is arranged for the
mffgazlne by its editor with an eye to variety,
and With conscientious care. The Jieview
is not only an important organ in its own
speciality, but is a literary journal oi univer
sal interest.
ART ITEMS.
We call attention to the advertisement of
Messrs. Eirle & Sons relative to the ap
proaching withdrawal of Church’s Niagara.
The painting is accurate, strange and beauti
ful; thebest artists aTe charmed with its most
important feature, the rendering of the vast
bed of mist or spray. It should be seen by
•11 who have visited, and above all by all
who have not visited the peerless original of
the portrait; the class excluded from these
two categories will not, perhaps, affect
Messrs. Earle's receipts much if they do stay
away.
The Evening Post metes out justice to a
collector of the most faultless taste in the fol
lowing terms:
An- Attbaotive Gaulekv.— -All true lovers
of art know how much its enjoyment is en
hanced by quiet, order and comparative soli
tude. It is impossible to contemplate a pic
ture satisfactorily in the midßt of a orowded
gallery, or when the attention is distracted
by the variety and bustle of a shop. We
realized this lately during a visit to the resi
dence of Mr 14. P. Avery,at No £8
jn. i ., tor he has a private house the
repository oihls many choice pictures, where
his friends and the public are welcome at ail
times, and especially on Monday evenings.
Whoever wish to examine, buy or sell a work
of art to advantage, we commend to this
attractive gallery. The pietures are ar
ranged with excellilht taste, the furniture is
qu&t and apppropriate; the courteous pro
prietor is always present to watch over the
precionß works intrusted to him, and en
lighten artists and amateurs disposed to ex
hibit or select pictures. His large experi
ence, artistic knowledge and extensive ac
quaintance with artists enable him to act as
their agent with singular benefit to all con
cerned. Besides some exquisite works of the
French school, purchased by Mr. Avery
abroad, be has one of Kensett's best land
scapes, a fine study by Durand, an ad
mirable head of ‘Elliot by Quy, and beautiful
water-color and oil landscapes by Oslmau,
Bhattuck and others; a fine piece of Italian
statuary, and many charming paintings, both
native and foreign.
FBOn DELAWARE,
[Correspondence of the Phils. Eventnr Bulletin. ]
Doybb, Del., Feb. 24tb, 1869.—Great anxiety is
expressed here in reference to the peach crop.
The mild weather which has prevailed for several
weeks past has started vegetation, and the peach
Irece are beginning to show signs of an early
bloom. A sadden cold spell of weather, especially
H accompanied with rain and sleet, must prove
disastrous to the peach crop in Its present ad
vanced state.
The peach crop of tho Peninsula has assumed
•neb importance that not only does It affect
those engaged tn Us culture, but also those who
have been dependen t upon this great peach-grow
ing community tor a liberal supply of this most
fieuclous fruit. Thus far the prospect of an un
precedented crop is very flattering, but a sudden
tpell of cold, freezing weather would not oaly
destroy every prospect of a crop, but spread
financial embarrassment throughout the whole
Peninsula.
The question of a nnlon of the Peninsula Into
•ae State is being agitated by the press of the
Xaetern Shore as well us that of Delaware, and Is
■seating with general favor from the people
themselves.
An address has been delivered in the Honse of
Bepresentativcs by Geo. W. 8. Nicholson a
brother of the Hon. John A. Nicholson, onr pre
sent Representative In Congress, in favor of a
■nion of Delaware, the Eastern Shore of Mary
land, and the two conn Lies of Virginia lyl D g on
(he extreme southern end of the Peninsula. A
resolution will soon be offered In the Legislature
lo appoint commissioners to confer with similar j
aommlssloners from other parts of the Peninsula i
interested, and report some plan of action |
whereby a union may be accomplished.
The feeling 1 against the Philadelphia, Wilming
ton and Baltimore Railroad Company, at first so
prevalent In the Legislature, has considerably
subsided. The threatened bill, of which nodes
was given in the early part of the session, for a
revocation of the charter of the road,
has never been introduced, but a resolution
iublead has been adopted by both Houses to
authorize the Slate Treasurer to employ counsel
and commence suit against the Company for the
recovery ol the ten-cent transit tsx, which the
Company have refused to psy on account of its
allied unconstitutional! ty,

Harjusbuhg, Feb. .24,-1869.—The Military His
tory of Pennsylvania, compiled by Mr. Bates,and
about which so much has been said daring the
present session, is at last acquiring some sort of
a status; or rather the expense incident to the
publication thereof, and the authority by which
such an unexpected expense is to be incurred by
the State, are now about as well ascertained
as they, will he nhlil the entire cost is discovered
by the large hole In the Treasury after the entire
amount has been paid.. The report of
mitiee on Public Printing, to,whom was referred
the joint resolution relative to the work, gives
the following fuctevTbatthecompllatibn or the
history was first authorized by the act of May 4,
1864, which gave the Governor authority to
appoint a competent person to prepare
such a work, and who should be paid
$2,51)0 lor such service. (I would say here, that
when this act was passed it was sappoffeiUhose
figures would cover the whole expense. j-Nothlng
Was done with the enactment until 1867, when
the Legislature gave directions as to the method
and contents of the compilation, and appro
priated $3,000, to be drawn from time to time as
the work ■ progressed. In 1868, the work still
being unfinished, $6,600 wero appropriated, with
the understanding that the money waß not to be
paid nnless the work was finished and the whole
thing completed within one year from the ’pas
sage of the act The money was expended, but
the work has really only commenced, but'One
volume having been published; and we noW find
that in the general appropriation bill for this
year is an item oi $6,700} making in all, for
compilation, $18,700. (This does not include the
money paid year alter year to clerks in -thd 1 Ad
jutant-General’s Department and employes In
tbe-Arsenal, detailed to aestet in getting out' this
B The Committee report that no legislative action
was ever taken with regard to the publication of
the history, with the exception of the act of
1867, directing the method of compilation. The
publication was began by the State- Printer in
1868, nnder the orders of the Governor, he pre
scribing all the details 'ns to the quality of paper,
length aDd width of pages, - general appearance,
size of type and binding. He also ordered tho
pages to be stereotyped, and to substantiate this
the Committee give the copy of a note addressed
by Goyornor Geary to the State Printer, on the
loarth ot the prcstnt.monlb, in which be says:
•‘During the Summer of lastyear I'ordered the
printing and binding of five thousand copies of
the History of the Pennsylvania ‘Volunteers that
served in the recent war, to be executed tn the
manner and style of the copies that have been
laid before both branches of the Legislative As
sembly.”
The committee also state that ,the printer In
forms them the cost to the State will be $6 80 per
volume, or, in round numbers, $7; and if the en
tire work is completed in fonr volames, the total
cost will be for compilation, $20,001); ior 6,000
sets of four volumes each, $140,000; express
charges for delivery, $lO,OO0 —a total of si7u,ooo;
or should the work extend to five volumes, whicb
is not unlikely, a total cost of $207,600. The
Btate printer claims that tbiß job does not come
nnder the provisions of the act of April 9, 1866,
and is not therefore subject to be paid for at the
rates fixed bv his contract of January 28,1868. In
April, 1864, an act was passed directing who
should give orders for work not provided for by
the aet of 1866, and bow they should be given,
and it is “nnder this act that authority is claimed
to order the execution of this Military History in a
style and on material different from that pre
scribed in the act of 1866; and consequently the
contractor lor State printing claims that os the
work was ordered to be printed on stereotypo
plates, a method not contemplated by any act of
Assembly, on wider and larger pages, in a differ
ent type and In a better style than the act of
1856 prescribed, and was ordered to be bound in
Turkey morocco binding, with marbled edges, a
style of binding not mentioned in that act, his
charges for the same are to be settled at the ordi
nary rates for such printing and binding In other
similar offices, and not by the terms Of this »•'•«-
tract These -»« a— oi the case as we have
bwu aDle to gather them. We do not feel called
upon to give any opinion npon them, and there
fore simply submit them to the Senate with the
remark that the State printer having been ordered
by the Governor to do this work in the particular
; manner In wbleb it has been executed, had no
alternative but to comply with the order.”
A resolution was passed in the House this
morning giving the use of the ball to the Duptis
of tbe Institution for the Blind on Friday even
ing, but aB tbe Legislature will have adjourned bv
that time tbe resolution will be modified so as to
make it tbe evening of the 11th of March. The
officers of tbe Institution, by the way, have Bent
a memorial here asking a supplement to their
charter, sl owing tbe establishment and manage
ment of an Industrial Home for the Blind, and
asking tbe appropriation of $lOO,OOO for purchas
ing grounds and erecting suitable building there
on, on condition that $60,000 are raised by pri
vate subscriptions. A bill for tbe purpose has
been offered,and every humanitarian in tbe Legis
lature should vote for it, saving, as It will, by its
provisions so many worthy blind persons from
tbe sufferings incident to pauperism commoted
with the deprivation of sight.
Considerable filibustering has been going on
the last two days In tbe Benate to prevent action
being taken on the Metropolitan Police bill.
There appears to be no reason to believe that it
will pass, as there are evidently sufficient Repub
licans wbo will vote with the Democrats,or dodge
tbe unestion, to insure its deteat, and the vote
thereupon might as well be taken early as late.
Mr.Errett has presented a bill having for its object
tbe reduction of Ibe expenditure for postage, by
having the Legislative Record sent out prepaid at
the same rates as would be charged by tbe
quarter for daily newspapers, if the require
ments of the bill conld be carried ont, it would
be a great Improvement on the present mode of
pay ing two emts on each Record; bnt I question
if the postal laws can be so construed as to make
that official report of proceedings come nnder
tbe same bead as daily newspapers.
Senator Henszey has reported from the com
mittee, with a negative recommendation, the bill

Thkktom, Feb. 24.—1 n the Senate no bills of
any importance have been acted upon,they being
mostly of a local character, relating to town
ships, conntles, school districts, Ac.
In the House, tho bill to establish an Insurance
Department in this State was taken np on its final
passage. This Is to create In New Jersey what
has existed In New York for several years—to
appoint a person to enforce all lavrß In relation
to insurance companies, examine their condition,
and see that they are not bogns, to examine the
securities, and collect the moneys from foreign
Insurance companies. Tho expenses of this de
partment are limited to $5,000, and with an of
ficer who will strictly enforce the law, the Bum
received by the Btate, It is estimated, will be $30,-
000, instead ol $7,000, the receipts of last year
The bill was warmly advocated by Mr. Abott
(Speaker), who clearly defined the merits of the
bill iu a forcible and eloquent speech. The bill
vr&B pawed by a vote of 30 to 24.

At the opening of the Court this morning, Leon
Abett, Esq., moved for a postponement of the
caßts of Valentine Poster and Album Zanklor In

of jurisdiction between the State Courts and the
Courts of tbe Uni led Btates; that these parties are
charged with making a false oath la a State
. Court on a matter delegated to the Siate Courts
by tbe United States, and he did not think the
United States conld exercise jurisdiction. The

Such reeuritlrs are generally valuable In proportion to

It needs no argument to show that a First Mortgage of

is phbveoilt begi'bk. Tbe entire amount of the mort

per annum in gold. The present currency cost of this in
