E GRIMES NAVY BULL The bill which passed the Senate, yester day, "for the reorganization of the Navy," introduces a principle which is not likely to be very long-lived. It creates a Board of SnrSey, to •consist of three line officers, not below the grade of commodore, which is clothed with extraordinary powers. The bill abolishes the Bureaus of Medicine and Sur geiy,.and of Provisions and Clothing, in direct terms, and virtually abolishes all the other Bureaus. It also practically abolishes the office ofSecretary of the Navy, by mak ing that Cabinet official subordinate to this Board of Survey. The bill possesses other marked peculiarities, in its re-adjustment of the grades of the naval service; but our pres ent purpose is to point out this single feature by Which the eight Bureaus of the Naty are either to tbe absorbed by, or superintended by three officers of the Navy. The duties of these eight Bureaus are widely dissimilar, as their titles sufficiently indicate : Yards and Docks ; Navigation ; Ordnance; Equipment and Recruiting ; Medicine and Surgery ; Provisions and Clothing:; Construction and Repair ; and Steam Engineering. Hitherto, such of these Bureaus as involve the idea of scientific or special knowledge and experience have been placed ,under the direction of officers sup posed to be peculiarly fitted for the discharge of the . several duties of their respective Ba nana. These assignments have not always beenrmade with the best judgment, and some of the Bureau work has undoubtedly been vezrbadly done. But the theory of their or ganizationis a sound and sensible one. They are essentially civil branches of the Secre tary. of, the Navy's Department They are lonlY amenable to civil authority, and have ;been officered wholly upon the basis of individual fitness, and not on that of grade or rank. The new bill practically overturns the Whole Bureau system, in bringing it under the superintendence and control of this Board of Survey, which is expected to comprise, within its three members, a concentration of experience and precise scientific attainment and ability, upon all the varied and incon gruOus branches of the naval service, now administered through eight distinct Bureaus. The (Navy may possess three officers capable of :thus managing the Secretary of the Navy, the Bureaus, and the Navy itself. Who they are, we -are unable to determine. But even if such a trio can be found, they are only to hold the office for three years. Then three other officers, commodores, rear or vice ad mirals, Bret° take their place, and the whole management of the Navy is thus to be handed round to successive triumvirates, who ate to be drawn from the little knot of officers eligible under this new law for this position. Supposing special knowledge on the diverse subjects of .ordnance, construction, medicine and surgery, steam engineering, &c., to be possessed, .ex o f ficio, by all the commodores and admirals in the .Navy, their number is inconveniently small for the purposes of this bill. There are twelve admirals, of the three grades, and there are to be only fifteen com modores. Oat of there twenty-seven officers there are ten principal Navy Yards and five large squadrons to be commanded. Oa the Ist of January, 1869, there were waiting orders, one admiral, one rear-admiral and nine commodores (out of the twenty-five who are to be reduced to fifteen). Out of this little handful of officers this Board of Survey is to be triennially reconstructed, and each new Board will come in with its own pecu liar hobbies, to upset the work of its prede censor. Still another and very grave doubt as to the wisdom of this new order of things arises from the substitution of the military fur the civil <element in the administration of the Navy. The present organization of the Elo pement is essentially civiL The proposed one is essentially military. The Secretary of the Navy, who is as much a civil officer as any of his colleagues in the Cabinet, is made subordinate to a military Board of Survey. He in to be governed by their reports and re commendations. He is to pay no money and makezo contracts for vessels of war, except with their permission. The reports of com manding officers, and their suggestions as to "equipment, armament, rig, stowage, steer ing qualities and accommodations,"are not to be acted upon by the Secretary of the Navy until he hes submitted them to this Board of Survey. An a word, under this bill, Mr. Bode is to be, not the Secretary of the Navy, but the Secretary of the Board of Survey. The bill seems to have slipped through the Senate veryeasily, but it is already intimated that it will not pass the House without a very thorough scrutiny. There ought to be some very cogent reasons, which have not yet been made public, to Induce Congress to make each a radical revolution in the Navy as Is proposed in senator Grimes's bill. IGNOBINO PRI LADELPHIFA. Ttni letter of one of our prominent Phila. aelpbis merchants, Hr. dugustna Heat m, to the Board of Trade, which we publiatied yesterday, touches a subject of great impart arse to the business interests of Pailadelphia The Statement In reference to the preaeot wanagamtmt , of the " through lints" between Washington and New Yotk is, we believe, pre- „ dimly true. A that theWhele arrangement robe Philadelphla of her trade connections with the Sala, for the bendt`of New York, is ,peribetly correct. How this veiTObjeetionablentiitinjuilourarrangetient works is clearly-Stated in Ddr. Heaton's letteri : and the Whole truth of themaiter is not given. A. recent experience: of' one of , the editors of this paper, will illustrate the unnecessary inconvenience and difficulty Which is thrown in the away of Phlladelphirins by_. this "through line” arrangement This gentle man, under the'shadow of two or three great people returning from ' the Inangriration, slipped through the guarded gate which is closed to Philadelphians, and secured a berth in a sleeping-car on the 8.40 P.M. train. Phil adelphia was reached soon after 4A. M. the train being behind time. No notice was giyen of the arrival at Philadelphia, but about a dozen weary passengers who had the good fortune to be awake, made their way out of the train and found themselves in a heavy snow-storm, before daylight, landed in a cut; somewhere in the region of Vine street. After wandering about for some time in the wet snow, they made their way out, through the yards of the Pennsylvania Central road, to Market street, and thence into the city. The train stood on the track while the engines were changed,and the mails transferred, long enough to have afforded abundant time to land the Philadel phia passengers comfortably and properly,aud even to have transferred the ordinary amount of luggage. We can see no good reason why Philadelphia should be debarred from the full privileges of a system of railroad con nection, the essential link of which, several miles in length,lies within our own municipal limits. The time has gone by for treating Philadelphia as if it were some insignificant village, and we trust that prompt measures will be taken to put a stop to an arrangement which does nobody any good (except the merchants of New York) and puts the business men of this commu nity and strangers wishing to do business here to the greatest inconvenience, annoy ance and loss. The arrangement, as it now stands, is not the act of any one railroad company. It is the result of the joint action of the connecting companies, extending from the far South northward to New York. There, there is no lack of opportunity for travelers to stop and to start just as they please, although there is a slight preponderance in favor of the stopping facilities. A very trifling alteration of the schedule, allowing five minutes more time at Philadelphia, at the outside ; a recognition of the fact that there is such a place as Phila delphia between Washington and New York, and of the other fact that Philadelphia has a right to some consideration in return for the facilities afforded to these railway companies by the "connecting road,:' will give us all we desire or have a right to claim. The claim that "express through-trains cannot stop everywhere" must not be applied to the second city of the 'Union. It may be fairly applied to many stations along the route; but Philadelphia is not a way-station, and if the present schedule makes it so, the sooner it is revised and corrected the better. This matter is one of very serious im portance to the business interests of Philo delphia, and a bill was introduced into the Legislature, last week, looking to a remedy of the evil which is so loudly complained of. It provides as follows " That from and after the passage of this act it shall not be lawful for any railroad company whose road now runs to or through any part cl the city of Philadelphia to refuse to sell to any passenger a ticket for hie conveyance on any train trout or to the said city at a price or rate propor tionate to the charge made to and from other poir is on said road, or to refuse to pass from or to said city any .passenger who shall have pre vionaly purchased said ticket ; that it shall be un lawful for such company to enter into or carry ont any contract with a connecting railroad com pany for the denial of the privilege of passengers to purchase or use such tickets aforesaid, under penalty of $l,OOO for•each offence, to be recovered in an action of debt, assumpsit, or trespass." This bill meets the most serious feature of the grievance, as the inference is clear that the holder of a ticket has a right in law to be carried, properly, safely and conveniently be tween the two places specified on his ticket. But we commend this subject to the fair con sideration of the railroad companies them selves, believing that they will reform the evil of the present arrangement, and so ob viate the necessity of legislation and of these well-founded complaints of the business men of Philadelphia. PaINTELIN AN iP.OWEII. The present organization of the United States Senate constitutes quite a marked compli ment to the typographic fraternity. Vice President Colfax was a printer from early life, and until quite recently retained his po - sition as editor of one of the most influential and able newspapers of Indiana. The public printer,A. M. Clapp,aereed upon in caucus,is well known as the proprietor and editor of the .ThiCalo Express. The Sergeant at-arms, John R. French, is an ex-member of Con gress, and a printer by profession. 'He has been connected as publisher and editor with several newspapers at the East and in Ohio. His appointment comes in as a special tribute to the profession of journalism, from the fact that his predecessor has exhibited such a grand contempt for the press, that on the occasion of the great national ceremo nial of the Inauguration, he ignored the newspaper representatives so entirely that no place was assigned to them on the plat form, and they were left to shift for them selves as best they might. Newspaperdom in Washington will congratulate itself upon the special compliment which is conveyed by French, vice Brown removed. MO npw Executive Clerk of the Senate is still another printer. Mr. Morris is the publisher of the only Republican newspaper In South Caro lina. He goes down from the reporters' gallery of the Senate, where he has been on duty as doorkeeper, to take his promotion as Executive Clerk. Among the Senators themselves there is a strong representation of the descendants of- Caxton and Gutenberg. Senators Hamlin, Sumner, Anthony, Cameron, Brownlow, Ramisey,Scburz and Cole have all been either practical printers or editors in their day and generation,' and there are probably other representatives of _the craft among the new Senators, with whose antecedents we are not yet acquainted. With the Senate thus composed, that body fn-S'~~~+~+K+. ...'.7 ~ ~,95~'. ... aII4,I).AITAY E'VE*l.l3lO BULLETIN ---PHILADELPHIA; WEDNESDAY, ILAROII 1 -1869. cannot but make a coed impraaiden upon the public niind.-/t gives new point to the trl adage thatOthe pen is mightier than the aviord,"when the men of War, like - Grant and Rawlina r lay-aside-theix fore they 'enter ipon 'their branch of the country's governmerit, , and the men of letters assume such prominence'and power in the department which makes the,nation'a laws.

Mr. Tiumbull, from the Committee on the Judiciary, reported, with an amendment, but without recommending any action upon it, the bill to enforce the 14th Constitutional Amend ment in the State of Georgia, the committee having been unable to agree upon any recor#- mendation, although they had agreed upon the amendment. Mr. Trumbull, from the same Committee, re ported back the credentials of Joshua Hill and H. V. M. Miller, claiming to be Senators elect, from Georgia, with the recommendation that they should lie on the table until notion should have been taken on the joint resolution in regard to Georgia. Mr. Trumbull said that he made this recommendation by the instructions of the majority of the Committee, his own opinion being that the Senate ought to act upon the cre dentials of these gentlemen without farther delay.

Henrusnuno, March 17. SEICATIEL-At the opening of the session, Mr. Beck, of Lycoming, made a statement in regard to the bill passed on Monday night In his ab sence, which action he declared to be an outrage on the rights of the people of his district and of all courtesy to himself. He was sorry to find that some of his Democratic colleagues had been so mistaken as to vote for It. The bill abolished the Twenty-ninth Judicial District, and he felt confident that the whole thing was the result of a conspiracy, first to secure his absence in Phila delphia, and then to perpetrate thisoutrage, con certed and put through by Peter Herdic, of Williamsport, whom he charged was "ono of the most corrupt scoundrels that entered the hails of legislation." Mr. Beck concluded by asking that the bill be repealed and he offered an act for that purpose, which, after some discussion, was passed. The following bills were introduced and rtio ferred to the Committees : Mr. McCandless read one supplementary to the act of March, 1861, and its supplements, author izing a free bridge at South street. consol Ida ilng the loan authorized, and exempting It from taxation.

Siofta.—Mr. Hong moved that a certain bill giving the city of Philadelphia the control of all springs, streams and waters, and preventing their deplement, be referred back 'to the Committee on Corporations. This was agreed to. It was un derstood that the bill would injuriously affect the manufacturing interests of Philadelphia. Mr. Itolgate offered tho following: "That s much of an act passed May 8,1966, as requires the construction of culverts in Philadelphia in the side of the streets be and the same is hereby repealed." , • Adaire introduced a. supplement to the Union Life li3aurance Company.

March 12.1 The general expectation that Colonel Casey would be appointed Collector of the Port has, it, seems, been justified by the event. This gentle man is, we have before remarked, not uncon nected'with the President, and Is not much ad dicted to politics. He has for some time resided in New Orleans, and has gained the good opinion of those to whom be has become known. Mr. Stcickdale, the new Collector of Internal revenue, has resided for some years in New Or leans as a Deputy Collector of the Port, in which position be displayed good business onatiflea dons. Mr. /Rockdale is an advanced Radical in politics; Of General Longstreet, the new Sur veyor of the Port, we prefer to say nothing, sim ply because his history as a gallant Confederate pincer le so well known that repetition would be superfluous, while his history as a Republican politician would be neither agreeable to the pub lic nor creditable to himself. GCn. Hancock's, llnteutlons. Wrom the Louisville Courier-Journal.) WASlliiveroN, Saturday, March IB.—Since General Hancock has been assigned to a distant command not at all commensurate with his high rank, many of his friends in Pennsylvania have agitated the question of nominating him for Gov ernor of that State. It may now be definitely stated that he does not Intend to withdraw from that profession in which he takes such pride, an less,bnmillation should follow exile, and his self respect 'should compel him to throw up his com mission, to effect whieh such ear nest efforts were made by cer tain politicians during the past year. In declin ing such a highrcompliment from his own State, General Hancock feels he is not doing injury to any important interest, as there are many promi nent men who are much better acquainted with •the State's local interests, which absence in his country's service has prevented him from know ing thoroughly. Therefore he does not wish to be an obstacle in the path of any one who could administer the State affairs to better advantage than himself. These views have been known for some time by his intimate friends. It is certain that General Hancock does not desire to be a can didate for civil office so long as he remains in the army.

Slight shocks of earthquake were felt during the week. The shock felt at Kaalaea, on this island, on the 19th, was not remarked on Hawaii. A party just from Kona, Hawaii, informs us that the Whole district is suffering from the long continued drought. Several tanks and cisterns are nearly empty.. Cattle aro suffering severely.

WASHINGTON, March 17.=-The following is the amendment reported by the Judiciary bommittee to the bill to enforce the Fourteenth Constitu tional Amendment in the. State of Georgia and to restore to that State the republican government elected under its new constitution. Whereas, The Legislature in the State of Georgia, elected under its new Cot siltation, pre paratory to the restoration of that State to its proper place in the Union, and to the admission of Senators and Representatives in Congress therefrom, has, in violation of the 14th amendment of the Constitu tion of the United States, refaced to purge Redid members who by said amendment were prohibited from-being such members and from acting as such, and has permitted and con tinues to permit said members to act as such; and whereas, a majority of the persons in fact composing said Legislature ha s,in violation ()iambi Constitution and the Constitution of Georgiteand In violation of the fundamental principles upon which Congress consented to the restoration aforesaid, expelled from said Legislature a large number of its legally qualified members, upon the sole ground that they were persons of African blood, and admitted thereto other persons not receiving a majority of votes of the people in -their places; and whereas, It appears that the local authorities in said State are wholly unable or nn willing to protect the lives, liberties and property of lawful and nn offending citizens of said State from lawless violancp. and refrain purposely or from wept of power from bringing such offenders to justice. l whereby it appears that the people of the State of Georgia have not complied with the terms or conformed to the principles upon which its restoration was provided for, and that the government thereof is not in fact republican or regular; therefore. Be it enacted, 4e., That so much of the act passed June 25th, 1868, ao relates to the State of Georgia be and the same is hereby repealed. Sze. 2. And be it further enacted, That the mili tary government of the State of Georgia, hereto fore provided for by law, be and the same is hereby revived, subject to the provisions of this set. Sec. 3. That the government organized un der said new constitution of Georgia shall con tinue in operation during the pleasure of Con gress, as provisional , only, and the expulsion of the members of said Legislature heretofore had, on the ground that they were of African descent, is hereby declared null and vold,and they shall be restored to their seats, and such as may have been admitted thereto in their place shall vacate the same, and no person shall be permitted to hold a seat in said Legisla ture, or any office under said provisional govern ment, who is disqualified by the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States. See. 4. That it shall be the duty of the Fred -dent to cause to be stationed in Bard State such part of the land and naval forces as shall be suf ficient to carry this act into fall execution, and all officers in command of such forces shall, on demand of the acting Governor of said State, render military aid and assistance in the admin istration of Government and in the protection of life and property and the administration of Jew tice. Forty-First Congress—First Reeslon. ainiATE—Continned from the Third Edition.] Mr. Pomeroy introduced a bill granting lands to aid in the construction of a railroad and tele graph line from the southern boundary of Kan sas to the Pacific ocean, with a branch to the southern boundary of the United States in the directien of El Paso. Referred to the Committee on Public Lands. Mr. Morton introduced the joint resolution, of which be had given notice on Monday, pre scribing the manner of proceeding by State Legis latures upon amendments to the Constitution proposed to them for ratification, and on his motion it was laid on the table. Mr. Chandler offered a resolution, which was agreed to, requesting the President to send to the Senate copies of the correspondence between President Buchanan and Secretary of State Case, in regard to the policy to be pursued to avert the then impending war of the rebellion. Mr. Williams called up the joint resolution in regard i to light-houses on the coast of Oregon, which was passed. Mr. Chandler called up the joint resolution to allow the New York, Newfoundland and London Telegraph Company to land its submarine cable on the shores of the United States. Rouse--Continued from Third Edition. Mr. Dawes, from the same committee,reported a joint resolution to supply omissions in the enrollment of some of the general appropriation bills of laid session. One of them requires the owners' of bonded warehouses to reimburse the government, the salaries of storekeepers, &c. Another is for lighting the Capitol and Fred- ' dent's house. The question being on the passage of the joint resolution, Mr. Beck argued against the bonded ware house proposition. Mr. Butler (Mass.) explained and advocated the proposition, which he said bad been unani mously agreed upon by the Committee of Con ference at 3 o'clock on the morning of the 4th of March,' and which was at that hour the law of the land. But it •being a matter which took a million and a half of dollara ont of the pockets of the whisky•dealere, of course the provisions dropped out in the enrollment of the bill. He did notknow, who to blame. Mr. Waehburne (Wis.) asked Mr. Butler whether he meant to charge that it was omitted intentionally. Mr. Butler, in reply, related the anecdote of the fool who told the miller he knew that millers' bogs were always fat, but did not know on whose corn they were fattened. Here was a whole section fairly written out and omitted in the enrollment of the bill. Mr. Washburne (Wis.) remarked that it was a very serious matter.. If an enrolling clerk weegulity of that , offence if should be known, and he hoped•the gentleman from Massachusetts would take means to have it made known. Mr. - Butler said he did not know whO was re sponsible for it.. He was informed that it we t s an accident, which had happened over ,and over again in former Congresses. He did not think it proper to discuss. the merits of the question now. It had been the law; but through an accident or • blunder, or something else, the last had been altered. The New 'link.
