THE LAST EffORBOEL
There Is never a repetition of the horrible
deeds of blood which, from time to tiing,con
vain this community, without a repetition,
also, of the demonstration of the inefficiency
of the present police system. The dreadful
tragedy which came to light yesterday after
noon, in which a whole family, father,
mother and children have been swept into
eternity, is one of the most shocking and sick
ening horrors ever recorded in Philadelphia.
A young man of respectable connections, of
good habits, established in business, living in
his own quiet home, with wife and children ,
under a sudden access of insanity, butchers
his faithful wife and his loving children, with
fearful deliberationlwhich, of itself, proves
his mental derangement, and finishes the
terrible tragedy with suicide. a. ,
;
The horror is one, which appears to-have
in it no element of crime. The whole con
duct of Mr. Blackstone is that of a cool, de
liberate, irresponsible lunatic. the method
of his wholesale destruction of himself and
his family proves the madness. Fuller in
vestigations will probably develop the fact
that the incipient disease had manifested
itself by those certain signs co well known to
those who have studied this worst of human
maladies. But the pregnant lesson which is
written in the blood of this slaughtered family
of innocent people will be lost upon those
who are daily exposing themselves and the
community to like dangers, because of their
unwillingness to admit the fact of the pre
sence of insanity in relatives or friends, until
it is sealed by some such frightful proof as
this.'
We have referred to the connection of the
police with this shocking affair. This con
nection nets in two points. It appears that
Mr. Illacketone, after committing the triple
murder, went down Market street, bent upon
drowning himself, At the corner of Sixth
street, half a mile from the river, he was en
countered by a policeman who, suspecting
him of being insane, arrested him. Black
stone, however, broke away from him, and
went on his way, apparently unpursued or
unmolested. Several hours afterward, he‘weet
to the river, jumped in and was drowned.
He dropped his handkerchief on the wharf,
marked with his name. This was on Mon
day morning, at ten o'clock. No search ap
pears to have been made for the suicide, no
notice conveyed to his home. His name, as
marked on his handkerchief, is in the Direc
tory, but his house is not visited,
and there the bodies of hie mur
dered family were left, undiscovered
until yesterday afternoon. Had this vital clue
to this fearful tragedy been necessary to the
capture of an escaping murderer, it would
have been all the same. The same lapse of a
day and a- half would have occurred, and the
criminal would have been far away.
There are these two important lessons to
be learned from this horror. People should
understand better the supreme necessity of
recognizing and guarding themselves against
the first symptoms of insanity in those around
them, since no foresight can predict the mo
ment when the hidden disease will break out
into some deed of violence or blood. And
we are again impressed with, what this paper
bast heretofore urged, the necessity of a per
manent, trained, educated police. We want
a system which will enable men to under
, stand their business and to be ready for just
such emergencies as this. There is no large
city in Europe where,with such a clue as was
in the hands of the police authorities, this sad
tragedy could have remained undiscovered,
an hour after that handkerchief was found.
ST IL &BIG
A party by the name of Strang, holding a
position in the Legislature of Pennsylvania,
has declared his intention to introduce, at an
early day, a bill, "providing that no man
shall publish a newspaper until he shall have
lied a certificate of twelve reliable citizens
that he is honest and of good repute and vera
city." Perhaps such a regulation would be
fatal to a great many newspapers, and per
haps it would not; but if the same practice
should be applie4 to the Legislature, as it
.might well be in the interest ol decency, what
then would become of Strang ? Strang, and
a very large majority of his colleagues, would,
we apprehend, retire from public life and be
driven to the extremity of earning honest live
lihoods. The consequences of their retire
ment,might be disastrous to individual com
munities, but the State as a whole would be
bentfitted. That is, of course, taking for
granted that Mr. Strang's estimate of the
qualities necessary to produce "reliable chi
rens" accords with the popular theory. Con
sidering some of Mr. Strang's Mats of states
manship, It is not impossible, but rather pro -
bable, that we may differ upon the question
of reliability and integrity. Men whom
Strang considers worthy may be precisely
the kind of fellows who would pass Strang in
an examination for fitness for legislative du
ties; and in that case, we should be compelled
to find fault with Strang's notions of good
Judgment and reliability.
The special cause of the ferocity of Strang
Lyon thill subject was the comment of the
newspaper press upon some very scandalous
behavior in the Rouse of Representatives, in
which Strang's colleagues, and perhaps Strang
himself, participated. It is likely that jour
nals, =antigen by "reliable citizens" of the
Strang stamp, would pass over such indiscre
tions Without severe comment, or, perhaps,
find in , them fit subject for eulogy. News
papers Of this kind would be careful, also, to
refrain from discussing. some other themes.
If they existed at the present rnoment,lor
instance, they would, of course, give their
verdict in accordance 'with the evidence, and
declare, boldly, that Strang and his colleagues
were not sent to Harrisburg to serve the'
popular interests, but to •grind the axes of
such firms as , that whose name appears in
most of the jobbing bills passed this session.
When Twelfth and Sixteenth Street, and
Begin Where You Please and Stop Where
You Want To Railroad bills were passed, and
when Universal Weighing bills were intro
duced, and Drove-yard bills, and Sheep-bills
threatened to become laws at the dictation of
the firm alluded to, the press would approve
and applaud, and cease to defend the rights
of the people. Thus encouraged, Strang and
his fellows would proceed, and after a while
we should have laws compelling tax-payers,
under penalty of imprisonment for life, to
take turns about blacking the boots of the
members of the bill-jobbing firm; or forcing
citizens to give half their revenue to these
persons, or making it a capital offence to ride
on any railway in which they did not have
controlling interest.
All things are possible with a Legislature
such as that of which Mr. Strang is a mem
ber; and it is well for the public good that
there is a free press over which Strang has no
control, and which is not afraid to expose
every nefarious scheme concocted by men
who were chosen to represent the people, but
who are doing, their very best to injure, rob
and oppress them. If a reform is needed in
either direction, it is in the machinery by
which such persons foist themselves upon
the community. If this cannot be done, per
haps the next best thing would be, as a
contemporary has suggested, to abolish the
Legislature aligether, and decide for or
( 11:,
against propos measures by tossing up a
cent. The prin al objection to this method
would be that some Strang or other would
be absolutely certain to attain the position of
tosser, and to employ a double headed penny
to the advantage of interested parties.
muo.
The Legislature, being human, is not alto
gether bad. "Very far gone from original
righteousness," as the Thirty-nine Articles
have it, undoubtedly, but still with discerni-
ble traces of rectitude and common sense
Here and there, the Legislature has done a
good thing, something which suggests neither
knavery nor stupidity, and among such
things must be ranked the Street Cleaning
Bill. It is a good bill, if only because it is a
new one; if only because it puts an end to
the old one; if only because it tries an ex
periment where old ones have signally failed;
if only because, from time immemoria
"new brooms sweep clean." The Board o
Health may fail, as successive Councils have
failed. The old farce may be re-enacted
under the Board of Health, and some new
law may yet be required. But there is every
chance that Philadelphia will get, at the very
least, one good sweeping from our sanitary
brooms, and we believe that it will get many
more. Certainly it never wanted it worse.
Councils held a special meeting yesterday
in reference to the new law, and very properly
adjourned without doing anything. The tact
is that Councils have nothing to do in the
matter, and they should be thankful to be rid
of a responsibility which has been a very
troublesome one. Councils were called upon
yesterday to annul the existing contracts, but
the objection was properly interposed that
the new law removes the whole business of
street—cleaning ont of the jurisdiction of the
Mayor and Councils, and vests it in the Board
of Health. This latter body is clothed with
sovereign power, and to It alone the contrac
tors, on the one side, and the public, on the
other, must now look. The law very expli
citly provides that all power hitherto vested
in the Mayor, Councils and the Highway De
partment, relative to cleaning the streets
shall be and are vested in the Board of Health.
Its control over the contractors is absolute,
and whatever accountability these contrac
tors or their sureties have been under, hith
erto, to Councils, they are now under to the
Board of Health.
Is the Board of Health ready for the re
sponsibility which it has invoked from the
Legislature? It has undertaken a duty which
has hitherto produced nothing but a long
catalogue of disgraceful failures. It has got
to contend with the fearful accumulations of
a winter's untouched filth, and with the cor-
ruptions of the present contract system. And
what it does, it must do quickly. Never was
a decent city so indecently and horribly
filthy as is Philadelphia to-day. New York
is a Paradise of cleanliness, compared with
it. The dirtiest parts of that proverbially
dirty city are cleaner than the cleanest parts
of this proverbially clean one. The Board of
Health has no time to lose. The summer is
close upon us, and a warm sun will soon be
basking upon the masses of filth which now
offend the sight and threaten the health of
our people. Its action must be bold, sharp,
quick and decisive. It must start
upon the principle that the pre—
sent contractors never meant or
expected to keep the streets clean. It must
start with the additional principle that Phila
delphia can be cleaned and kept clears. It
may feel assured that, from the moment when
the community sees and feels that the work
is actually being done, and that the Board of
Health has really attacked this huge and Mon
strous evil courageously and sensibly, the
people will endorse and sustain the effort
with a power which can neither be disre
garded nor resisted.
,No precious time should
be wasted in elaborate preparations to begin.
Seize your new brooms, gentlemen of the
Board of Health; brandish your new scrapers,
and begin. Alter you have begun, mature a
better plan than the present one. If muscle
and broom and scraper are insulibient, call
in the aid of machinery; but abov.e all things,
Begin!

[Special Despatch to the Philade. Evening Builethe.l
WASHINGTON. March 81.-The Conference
Committee held a meeting this morning, but
came to no definite conclusion. Several propo
sitions were , made looking towards agreeing
upon some amendment to the Tenure-of-01We
bill, but these were discussed without coming to
any vote upon them. Another meeting is to bo
held this afternoon, when the subject will be
finally rammed of, so far, at least, as the Com
mittee is concerned.
The Tenure -or -Office Bill.
Weemmovou, March M.—The Conference
Committee on the Tenurtrof•Offiee bill has
agreed. The terms are not yet divulged.
The Fight Bet we en the Pacific Ran-

(Special Despatch to the Milled& Evening Bulletin.]
WASHINGTON, March 81.—The fight between
the Union Pacific and Central Pacific Railroad
people, as to where the two roads shall unite, has
commenced in real earnest. The former had a
bearing before the House Committee on Pacific
Railroads this morning, when arguments were
made showing that the Central Pacific had not
comrlied with the requirements of the Govern
ment in building the eastern end of their road.
The Central people are to be heard td-morrow
in reply.

Forty•Ftrat Congress—First gession4
Wearnstoros, March 81-'
Susrarn.—The Vice President laid before the
benate the House concurrent resolution to ad
journ on the sixth proximo.
Mr. Serener moved to lay it on the table.
Mr. Rowe and other Senators opposed the
motion, and it was lost.
Mr. Fessenden, as Chairman of the Committee
on Appropriations, said that in his opinion it
would be impossible to finish by that time the
business pending before the Senate; that the
Senate ought not to fix a day for adjournment
until it ehouM, at least, have disposed of the In
dian appropriation bill.
Mr. Sumner agreed with the Senator from
Maine that the Senate ought not to concur in
this resolution, but the Indian Appropriation bill
was not the only or even the most important
matter requiring the attention of Congress.
?here was the whole subject of Georgia, invol
ving the question of the admission of her Repre
sentatives and the question what ehall be done
to secure a proper reconstruction of that State.
This was the most important subject before Con
gress, and Senators ought not even to talk of go
ing home until the case of Georgia, in all its
branches, should hove been fully cons idered and
sett.ed. The settlement of the ease of
Georgia was Important, not only to
the people of that State. but also as an ex
ample for the other States, Mississippi, Texas and
Virginia. Another very important matter de
manding attention and action at this session
was the revision of the naturalization laws, so as
to prevent frauds in naturalization.
Mr. Rowe was unable to see why it was wrong
to talk about adjournment. It was a peculiarity
of the Senator from Massachusetts that the longer
be stayed here the more he found to be done.
rLaughter.l He (Mr. Howe) would be willing to
remain in eeesion a while longer for the purpose
of settling the Georgia case, if be could see any
prospect of making such settlement; but he had
been here ever since 1862 trying to reconstruct
Georgia and the other Southern States, and yet
be believed they were no nearer reconstruction
than ever. If Congress could reconstruct a State,
it bad had time enough to do it, but to recoil
structnnecessfully, in addition to Congress and
time, one thing more was needed, good sense.
Bouse.—Mr. Lathe presented, a petition of
Horace J. Emery for an extension of his patent
for improvement in the endless chain horse
power.
Mr. Ferry, from the Committee on Rules, re
ported a new rule, requiring the hall to be
cleared of persons not entitled to the privilege of
the floor ten minutes before the hour of meeting.
Adopted.
Mr. Poland introduced a bill to extend the pro
vhions of the act of August 29th, 1842, to pro
vide further remedial justice in the United States
Courts. Referred to the Committee on the Re
vision of the Laws.
Mr. Cake stated that he was" palred off on the
Tenure-of-Office bill otherwise ho would have
voted yesterday against concurring in the Senate
amendment.
Mr. Cake also introduced a bill to incorporate
the Government Anthracite Railroad Company.
Referred to the Committee on Roads and Canals.
Mr. Fitch (Nev.) Introduced a bill for holding
a term of the 11. B. District Court in Nevada.
Referred to the Judiciary Committee.

The Adjournment of Congress
The Question Before the Senate
The Payne-Weston Walking Match
Auction Sale of Coal in Now York
The Adjournment.
Special De/patch to the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin.]
WASHINGTON, March 81.--The Senate took up
the House resolution providing for an adjourn
ment next Tuesday, and debated it until the close
of the morning hour, when it went over, under
the rules, and the Indian Appropriation bill was
taken up. The debate disclosed the fact that
many Senators are anxious for an early ad
journment.
Mr. Fessenden said it was best to omit action
on the question until the Indian Appropriation
bill was finished.
Mr. Sumner protested against fixing any time
until the status of Georgia and the other num.
constructed States was settled by legislation,
The Naturalization bill passed, and other
necessary business attended to.
Mr. Anthony thought the Senate wquid be no
nearer the apparent end of its• business two
weeks hence than it was to-day, as' experience
showed that the business on the calendar in
creased instead of diminished up to the close of
the session.
Mr. Hamlin believed that an adjournment
could be made by the close of next week, and
moved that Saturday be inserted in the resolution
instead of Tuesday.
Mr. Thayer opposed the passage of the resolu
tion at this time.
Mr. Conkling favored it. and claimed that the
understanding in the caucus that only certain
subjects of legislation should be considered this
peeelon should be adhered to.
In the course of the debate, several Senators
spoke of it as almost certain that the -Senate
would have to remain atter Congress ad
journed to attend to Executive business. The
general sentiment seems to be that an adjourn
ment will be bad next week.
The House has up the Mississippi bill, with
Gen. Farnsworth speaking in support of his sub
stitute.
From Washington.
WASHINGTON, March 31.—The President 1 8
quite well to-day, and received callers as usual,

agent G. W. Summers, and reinstated Foster
Blodgett in charge of the Augusta Post-office.
Lieutenant-Governor Dunn, of Louisiana (a
colored man), is In the city.
The Weston Walking Hatch.
BUFFALO March 81.—The exeitementln regard
to the walking match between Payne and Weston
is on the increase. The betting is heavy and al
most even. AL the last accounts Weston walked
fifty-eight miles without stopping, and was forty
minutes ahead of Payne, who stopped for re
freshments. The bridges at Cattarangus creek
had been carried away by the freshet,
which detained Weston, and Payne caught up
with him. Weston obtained a team to earry his
judges and left a few minutes before 11 o'clock.
Payne was detained for want of a team to carry
bis judges. The public sentiment favors Payne.
Considering the muddy condition of the roads,
both men have done splendid walking. They
are expected to make the trip in a little. over 24
hours.

charged from its further consideration.
Mr. Garfield inquired whether there was now a
law making the same provision. He said he had
that impression until the Senate had passed this
bill.
Mr. Schenck said that the gentleman was right
in this impression. - There was a Joint resoltition
for the same purpose, passed on the 17th of
March, 1864.
Mr. Garfield inguirid how much gold could be
