THE FAST OF FASHION.
As was suggested in a recent article in this
paper, the asceticism and the self-denials of
the first circles in the fashionable and wealthy
world reached their climax last week. It
was a comforting thing to be in a large and
elegantly dressed crowd, like that which
assembled every evening of the week in the
Academy of Music, for the sake of special
penance suitable to the solemn season of Kid-
Lent. The gospel according to Offenbach
was expounded in a manner that seemed
entirely satisfactory to the congregations that
paid-•tribute nightly to the particular evan
gelist named Fisk, who had leased the theatre
for the single week with a view to a special
work of grace appropriate to that part of the
solemn fast which the devout love to honor
with peculiarly sacred observance.
The Lenten contributions of the fashionably
devout to the cause of evangelization accord-
ing to Offenbach, are said to have reached
last week the handsome eum of nearly thir
teen thousand dollars. To the dead-heads,
including us of the press-gang, the stock
holders, and the proxies, hat had the gracious
privilege of witnessing the solemnities with
out paying tribute, the services were especially
edifying. But to the fortunate larger class,
that could afford to give the cash, without the
waste of intellectual wealth involved in
earned je,riticism and exorbitant panegyric,

EXIT HINCKLEY'.
One of the Oddest excrescences to that ex—
traordinary creature of accident, A. Johnson,
was John M. • Binckley.- John is dead. In
the words of the poet,
"Dearest Johnny, thou hest left us."
John,—or more properly, Jack, (consider
ing what an ass he has made of himself) has
proved himself a true and lineal descendant
of the Tite Barnacle' family, and although he
has been kicked, cuffed and snubbed in every
direction, he has clung to the public crib,
from which he has received sustenance, at the
rate of $4,000, a year, with a grip that noth
ing could relax, until sturdy Master Rollins
has at last rapped him over the knuckles as
public official never was rapped before.
Mr. Rollins's letter tql z ttie President, touch
ing Bilickley, has the Merit of great plain
ness of speech. It refers to him by such
gentle termefas "wilful perjurer," "weak and
credulous," "the convenient tool of corrupt
and malicious men," "notoriously unquali
fied," and intimates, in a general way,that he
is lazy, ignorant and generally worthless.
Mr. Rollins suggests that Binckley be kicked
down stairs, and President Grant promptly
orders the suggestion to be carried into effect.
Binckley is kicked down stairs, and the place
that knew him knows him no more.
Alas! poor Binckley! No more shall we
enjoy thy pleasant buffooneries. Never again
shall we peruse those wonderful opinions
which first introduced thy long ears to the
notice of tberchtlic. Never more shall
astounding plots, concocted in thy fertile
brain, be blazoned in the public eye, until
some bold Courtney shuts up thine own,with
sturdy and indignant blows. The Treasury
will miss Binckley. $333 331- will await his
coming, on each monthly pay-day, but
Binckley will not be there to pocket them.
Where will be go? Will he follow the fallen
fortunes of his master, and lose himself in
Tennessee and oblivion? Or will he follow
the illustrious footsteps of the noble army of
American failures, and bloom out into pros
perity and respectability in the rank hot-beds
of New York politics? The country would
fain preserve some traces of Biackley. No
one ever knew whence he came, but no one
who has ever enjoyed his stupid, clumsy
antics, would willingly lose him entirely. At
least, let ns have his statue on the Lincoln
monument at Washington.
Rollins has treated Binckley in a manner
which calls for the intervention of Mr. Bergh.
Rollins
"had a donkey wot wouldn't go."
Did Rollins follow the precept of the poet
of humanity ? Did he
"Give ulna some oats and request him to go ?"
No. On the contrary, he not only "wal
lopped him," in the moat unfeeling manner,
but, by way of ' , a hint that he was no longer
wanted, he kicked him down stairs. Of
course Rollins will plead that there was no
other way to get rid of him, but we put it to
the Commissioner, whether he ever tried
moral suasion on Hinckley. Did he ever
offer him any inducement to go? How could
he expect Hinckley to give up $4,000 a year,
unless he put him in the way of making
$5,000. Ass that, Hinckley is, he is not such
an ass as that.

Batley and its neighbbrhood,in Yorkshire,
to use the words of an English, jonmal, are
"the chief seat , of the.great latter: 7 day style
of England—shoddy. This' is the famous
rag-capital,the tattermetropolbwhither every
beggar in Europe sends his, cast-off

Reduced to filaments and-greasy pulp by
mighty-toothed cylinders, the much-vexed
fabrics re-enter life in the most brilliant
form—from solid pilot-cloths to silky MG'
hairs and glossiest tweed. Thus the tail coat
rejected by the Irish peasant, the gabardine
too fine for the Polish beggar, are turned
again to shiny uses—reappearing, it may be,
in the lustrous paletot of the sporting dandy,
the delicate riding-habit of the Belgresian
belle, or the sad, sleek garments of the con
fessor. Such, 0 reader, is shoddy !" A
cheaper woolen garment can be purchased
now in England than thirty years ago, not
withstanding that the expenses of living have
considerably augmented since that time. The
rag-wool worked up into cloth is equal to
many millions of fleeces annually.
A new monthly journal, The London
Student, devoted to educational purposes,
opens with a plea for more universities, by
Professor Seeley, wbo strongly urges the ad
visability of a union between the London col
leges and the consequent formation of a Lon
don University worthy of the name. We
quote some of his language on the subject,
under a belief that something of the same
kind might be matured in Philadelphia,'" the
wishes of her citizens could be carried into
effect by the erection in the same loctale of
suitable buildings for the chief institutions of
literature, science and the arts,and thus allow
of their joint and harmonious action for one
great public inst Suction and enlightenment.
"If," as Professor Seeley eloquently urges,
"the British Museum is a university; if
every hospital is a medical university; if
the Royal Academy is a university of art;
if, besides these, there exists in London
a number of so-called colleges, in which the
fundamental condition of the university sys
tem is fulfilled—namely, that the teacher is
not absorbed in teaching, but has leisure for
study and research; lastly, if London is the
headquarters of those learned societies—
which are universities in the purest rudimen-

tary form—may we not justly say that Lon
don contains the chaos of the vastest uni
versity in the world, and that little more
han a word is wanting to call that university
into being ? These multitudinous institutions
have but to unite—nay, they have but to will
to unite—and the thing is done."
Were a union not an amalgamation or
fusion into one, - but a federal union—estab
lished among the literary and scientific in
stitutions, including museums and public
libraries of Philadelphia, there would result
a University which would bring into con
sentaneous action individual talent now
dormant and scattered, and be the means of
diffusing knowledge and refinement through
the entire community.
A jocose member of the Legislature from
Bucks county, McKinstry by name, and De
mocrat by politics, got off a witticism on the
House, yesterday, in the shape of a bill in
corporating a railway on Broad street, pur
porting to emanate from a number of gentle
men connected with the Philadelphia press.
The EVENING BULLETIN'S opposition to the
obstruction of Broad street is complimented
by placing one of its representatives at the
bead of the list. We are disposed to pardon
Mr. McKinstry's impertinence, in his unwar
ranted use of the names of private gentle
men, for the sake of the opportunity which
he affords us to record afresh oar earnest
desire to get the old tracks out of
Broad street, and to keep all cars, °mull:Roses
and other impediments from getting into that
noble thoroughfare. Following Mr. Stewart's
precedent, we will make an "absolute trans
fer and disposition of all our profits and in
terests to be derived" from the Broad Street
Railroad "to three eminent gentlemen as
trustees,"—say Messrs. Henszey, Davis and
Josephs,—"who shall have absolute disposal
of the profits and revenues for the use of the
street contractors of Philadelphia, or other
needy individuals." We make this offer, be
cause our anti-Broad-street•obstruction busi
ness would make us, otherwise, ineligible as
stockholders in Mr. McKinstry's Broad Street
Passenger Railroad Company.
By way of attracting population, wealth
and enterprise to the Southern States, the
principal railway companies there have agreed
to issue excursion tickets or certificates to
parties going thither with a view to perma
nent settlement or investment. These will
be good over all the roads included in the ar -
rangement, which are indicated in a map and
circular that has been prepared. The Penn
sylvania Railroad Company has undertaken
to aid in this work, and the tickets or certifi
cates, together with all needed information
on the subject, may be obtained at 001 Chest
nut street, of John F. Vanleer, Jr., and 116
Market street, of Francis Funk. Under this
liberal arrangement it may be, expected that
many Northern men of capital will be in
duced to visit the Soutliern States this Spring.

people swarmed in the East rooms. Very few
persons were admitted to see the President, who

Singular lintfrond Accident
"Special Despatch to the Phila. Eventall Balletin.l
New Yong, March 9.—A singular accident oc
curred on the Erie Railroad yesterday afternoon,
by which several persons were severely injured.
though none were killed.
The. Cincinnati Express, due here at 5 o'clock,
and behind time, as Is usual on Monday, was
naming at a very rapid rate. When near Suf
fern's, a freight train losdcd with railroad iron
was passed going in the opposite direction. One
or two rails became displaced and entered the
smoking car diagonally, as the Express train
rushed by.
The smoking car was filled with passengers,
and that so few were injured is remarkable. The
bars tore open more than half the aide of the car,
destroying , all the seats on that side.
Walter Buckley, of Tremont Centre, N. Y., had
his right leg broken above the ankle, and it is
thought amputation will be necessary. William
A. Smith, of Damascus, Pa., sustained a fracture
of the left hip, and other severe bodily injuries.
He was taken to the Western Hotel, in this city.
A min, name unknown, had all his front teeth
knocked out. Several others were injured, the
greater portion by flesh wounds from splinters.
The iron bare which caused the accident either
broke or became loosened, as they left the
smoking-car by the same aperture they made in
entering, before either train stopped.
Fire at bast Cambridge, Dames.

Hamm 8 --Wall street was in a fever to day over the
telegrams from Washington relative to the formation of
President Grant's Cabinet The earned despatches an.
noneeed the resignation 'of Mr. Stewart. These were
succeeded by the statemetit that Mr. Boutwell. of Mena
chusetts, had been appointed by the President, while etill
another report was to the effect tbat Mr. Stewart had re
commended Mr D. A. Wells, Revenue Commiesionerk
Whatever will be the retell of the present
complications it re evident from the indications
to-day that a fierce quarrel has broken out,
or rather the old . fend has been renewed, be•
tween the free trade and the protective tariff members
of the dominant party lathe benate. In the first flush of
the new order of things Mr. Stewart's nomination was
confirmed without any reference to his antecedents on
three Melee of national policy. But if the President ae
cep. s his resignation there will be more discrimination
made In the ratification of his inecesuror'a appointment.
According to the latest advice'. President Grant still re
fused to act upon the resignation. He has now a two
fold reason for insisting upon the confirma
tion ef his choice by the obliteration of the
objectionable law. The repeal of this measure is the only
preliminary to the immediate working of the new Cabi-
Vet But the acceptance of the resignation and the load
ing of a new name to the Senate would provoke a long
and bitter quarrel between the two factions, which might '
result in an inter minable deadlock and leave the Seere.

finances of the country demand that Its duties should
be zealously and etudiotudy administered. The
statement a as made on the street that Albert Gallatin
was a merchant when he officiated as Secretary
of the Treasury. It proven, however, to be an erroneous
irnpreraion. So far as we can ascertain there has been no
infringement of the law. One mercbant who was ap
pointed to it gave up his hneinesa in order to accept The
law is perfectly futile as to the object which it meets and

The effect of all this indecision and uncertainty was
more particularly reflected in the gold market. The
earliest tales in the morning before the opening Of the
board were made at I=l4. MS; and 139. The latter was
the opening flgure at the board. much to the consterna

late in the day that, the intelligence was received of a de.

It Is evident from this falling off abroad that the in
augural of Preaident Grant, with his suggestion to pay
the bonds in gold, has not been sent over by the cable.
but must wait the tedious transmission of the mails. At
the close of bneinese in London the price had recovered
to 82k : but orders by cable to buy were countermanded.
while in other quarters It was stated that the orders had
been renewed. The firmness in gold tended to check
in some measure the yielding occasioned by the decline
abroad.
The transactions in gold during the day were again
very large. the gross clearings at the Bank exceeding

the natural activity of loans, which were made at rates

Wastansorow, March 9.—The President has
just sent in a message to the Senate, withdraw
ing his request for the repeal of the eighth sec
tion of the Treasury act of September 2d, 1789.
Large crowds are at the Senate doors to-day.
Much anxiety everywhere is expressed regarding
Cabinet arrangements, especially among office
seekers. The galleries of both Houses are filled
to their utmos,Kapacity.
The knowledge that President Grant would re
ceive callers this morning drew large numbers
to the White House, anxious to see and pay their
respects to the new President, and by 10 o'clock
the Executive office was filled with ladies and
gentlemen. There was but little time for any
interview or conversation beyond the mere
shaking of hands with the President, and
some ' were evidently disappointed at not
being able to obtain a few moments conversation
on subjects in which they entertained great per
sonal interest. Before 12 o'clock the crowds les
sened, it being known that at noon there would
be a meeting of the Cabinet, after which no vis
itors would be admitted to the President unless
by special engagement.
Secretary Washburne was engaged with the
President on official business, this morning, and
at the regular hour a Cabinet meeting was held,
there being present Secretaries Washbarne,Cress
well and Schofield, and Assistant Secretaries
Hardley, of the Treasury; Toxon, of the Navy;
Otto, of the Interior Department, and Assistant
Attorney-General Ashton. The Cabinet meeting
was not long in duration, the President stating
that there was just yet no particular public busi
ness demanding the attention of the Representa
tives present.
Gen. Rawlins. late Chief of the Staff of Gen.
Grant, returned here from New York last night.
and was engaged with the President this morn
ing.
Mr. Borie qualified as Secretary of the Navy
this morning, and is expected to enter formally
upon his duties this afternoon.
The applications for office under the new ad
ministration increase, and are made by letter
through friends in Washington occupying posi
tions. Many seeking the position of subordinates
are disappointed in their direct applications at
the White House to the gentleman acting as Sec
retary to the President, as they are invariably re
ferred to the department officials in whose charge
are the offices sought for.
Commissioner Rollins was at the Executive
Mansion in consultation with the President to
day, and itis understood that the subject of con
versation was the condition of Internal Revenue
affairs in the various districts throughout the
country.
Mr. Delano will qualify and enter formally
upon his duties to-morrow. The impression is
that many changes in important offices con
nected with the Internal Revenue will be made
very soon. The clerks in the Internal Revenue
Office have prepared a memorial, which is to be
presented to Mr. Rollins on his retirement.

WASH INGTON, March 9.—Mr. Stewart's offer to
transfer and dispose of all interests and profits
whieh may be derived from carrying on his busi_
ness, in order that he might accept the position
of Secretary of the Treasury, is the subject matter
for discussion in political circles to-day. Last
night, when Mr. Stewart's offer became public,
was thought this course would permit
him to take the oath of office. The
excitement was intense until a late hour last
night. and the many conflicting rumors were
more confused. This morning many leading
lawyers are of the opinion that the proposed
action of Mr. Stewart does not amount to a com
pliance with the terms of the law, and that the
only course left open for Mr. Stewart is to de
cline,or else do away entirely with his vast mer
cantile interests. A partial canvass of the Senate
and House shows clearly that the tide of feeling
among legislators is against the repeal or modi
fication of the law of 1789.
A Cabinet meeting was held this morning, to
consider the subject of Mr. Stewart's appoint
ment. As to what conclusion was reached no
thing definite has transpired. Mr. E. B. Wash
borne, who was present, expressed the opinion
that in view of all the circumstances, and of the
dissatisfaction likely to arise by Mr. Stewart
taking the oath of office while the law of 1789
remains in force, the President should relieve
himself as well as Mr. Stewart from all embar
rassment by accepting the Wier's letter of
declination.
In an interview with Chief Justice Cartter, pre
vioue to the Cabinet meeting, President Grant in"
timated and left the impression upon the mind o f
Judge Cartter that he intended to pursue a shni.
far course to the one proposed by Mr. Wash
burne. Judge Cartter urged the President to do
so, and said that Mr. Stewart's offer to transfer
the profits of his property to trustees for benevo
lent purposes would not relieve him from the
operation of the law.
Mr. Stewart, up to the hour of sending this,
has heard nothing definite from the President as
to his action in the case, but it is believed that he
intends to accept the letter of declination, from
the fact that soon after the Senate met to-day
the President sent in a message asking to with
draw his message of Saturday, which requested
that Mr. Stewart be exempted from the operation
of the law of 1789.
Mr. Stewart has, in ease his offer to place his
property in the hands of trustees be accepted by
the President, suggested the names of Wm. B.
Astor, James Brown, of Brown, Brothers & Co.,
and Henry Hilton. but left it optional with the
President to select others, if these were not satis
factory.
Speaker Blaine laid before the House this
af
ternoon the resignation of Mr. E. B. Washburne.
The Currency Bill.
[Special Despatch to the Phila. Evening Bulletin.)
Wasimams, March 9.—ln the Senate, Mr.
Sherman reported from the Finance Committee
the Currency Bill and Public Credit bill, similar
to one passed during the last Congress, an

QUARTER Sessroars—Judge Peirce.—John and.
Michael Brennan were charged with the larceny
as bailee of a watch valued at e3oo oelonging
Henry Thomas. Mr. Thomas alleged that pass
ing by the store of the defendants,he saw a watch
which pleased him, and after some negotiation
agreed to purchasefor 0350. The money wag paid ::
to the defendants, and Mr. Thomas then left the
watch with the defendants to be regulated. Call
ing several times subsequently,he failed to get the
watch,the defendants always excusing themselves
on the ground that the watch was at the work
shop. Finally Mr. Thomas insisted upon taking
the watch whether it was regulated or not. One
of the defendants then accompanied Mr. Thomas
to the workshop, but instead of getting the watch
there, produced it from his own pocket. Mr.
Thomas expressed his surprise at this, accused
Mr. Brennan of deceiving him as to the where-,
shouts of the watch, and then seized it. In
examining it he alleged that it was not the watah
that he purchased; that the dial was cracked, and ,
the bell sounding the time was louder than the
one he purchased. Both defendants insisted.that ,
it was the same watch, while Mr. Thomas as per-. ,
sistently declared that It was not, and finally in
stituted the prosecution. • -
The defence set up that the assertion of Messrs.
Brennan was correct. The parties from whom
the watch was originally purchased by the de-
fendants testified through their agent, that this'
watch was the one in the hands of Mr. Brennan
at the time Mr. Thomas was making his com- • ,
plaint. He identified it by the number and also
by the crack (almost imperceptible), the witness
having cracked it himself in removing the , dial ,
for certain repairs. The good chariuter of the
defendants was also put in evidence. On trlid.
