EVENING BULLETIN.
Hmradur. April 1, IBC9.
THE APRIL FESTIVAL.
The First of April is the Feast of 6L Deco
ratio. We are not sure that BL Decoratia .
does not stand, in point of antiquity, at the ,
head of the whole calendar. From the ear
nest period of the world, as far back as the ;
time when there were but two women in the j
family of Adam, the settlement of the qnss- ;
tion of “bonnets and head bands,and change
able suits of apparel, and mantles, and wim
ples, and fine linen, and hoods and vails” has
been recognized as the chief end of women-
Over this great college of the sex, sitting en
pit manence, the fair St. Decoratia presides,
ever changing, yet ever the same; always'gay
and smiling, sometimes a trifle provoking,
always declared to be thoroughly satisfactory. >
8t Decoratia’s Yearly Meeting takes no votes
upon her edicts. She conceals her measures
and her policies as reticently as j
if she were President Grant her
self, and when she unfolds her plans and
designs, she permits a certain amount of buzz
and hum and show of consultation among
her sworn devotees, and then she “declares
the sense of the meeting,” and her decision
is law. From the days when her immortal
youth began, St. Decpratia has swayed her
iron tetptre in her patte de velours, and
Puck never dreamed of half the pranks
which thiß incomprehensible sovereign plays j
with her humble subjects. Now and then,
we see some unruly young person, born with
that malformation of brain which tempts her
to have ideas oi her own, tugging her heart
out, in the vain struggle to resist Bt. Decora
tia’e commands. Now and then, some dull
Dowager bridles up and mutters angry vowb
that her daughters shall not shape their
notions of decency or taste after the de
cisions of the omnipotent Saint- Now and
then we bear of leagues and covenants whose
aim and end is to overthrow the adamantine
throne of the imperious divinity that admin- j
isters law to Universal Woman. How St. I
Decoratia laughs at them all.' How she I
punishes their impotent arrogance by impo
sing new and monstrous penalties! How j
she fashions new dunce-caps, and new san i
benitoe for her penitents I How she tortures !
them with unbecoming colors! How she :
disfigures them with hideouß shapes! How |
she sits the while and smiles her blandest '
smiles as they recant their treason and bind
themselves to their renewed allegiance! j
Bnt Bt. Decoratia, like her festival month, j
bestows rewards as well as punishments, sun
shine as well as clouds, smiles as well as
lean. This year she is in a good humor, and
to-day her prime ministers, the Milliners, the
Modistes, the Merchants of feminine goods,
commonly, but unpoeiically, called ‘‘dry,"
are holding high court. To-day is the Great
Spring Opening. To day is BL Decoratia’s
Yearly Meeting. It is not a Meeting for Suf
ferings, bnt one of Decorations. Great is the
feast and great is the congregation of the
faithful who have gathered to it- Gorgeously
delicate to look upon are the Spring
Bonnets,—they are still called Bonnets,
for some reason or other. Marvelous
are the Spring Mantles and Shawlß and name
less outer gear. Wondrous in variety, in
texture, in color, in pattern, in material, are
the displays upon the counters and shelves of
the palaces where St. Decoratia is chiefly
worshipped. It is a busy day with her vota
ries, for the Baint is in her best humor this
Spring, and she is offering nothing but pretty
things to her faithfnl subjects. For days
past, the Evening Bulletin has been turned
into a sort of Court Journal, and our columns
have been and still are annonneing the many
attractions which our Dry Goods Merchants,
our Milliners, or fashionable Modisteß have
prepared to do honor to the Spring Festival
of Baint Decoratia.

law so modified gives the President un
qualified power over hfe Cabinet, and also
the power of “suspension,”—whloh General
Butler yesterday admitted was a synonym for
“removal,” —of officers during reoes3es, and
the appointment of their successors, subject
to the approval of tho Senate at its next
seßEion.
Why the greater portion of a month should
have becen wasted upon this discussion can
only be answered by a reference to the uni
versal desire of all legislators to make
speeches, and to exercise power. Toe coua -
tty would have been more than satisfied with
an absolute repeal of the law, be
cause the country is determined to
tiust in President Grant. It will
be satisfied wiLh the amended
law, because it is understood that President
Grant is Baiisfiid with it, and for that reason
without asking for any other. The settle
ment leaves the Preiident free to act, and we
may now look for as rapid a reorganization of
the civil service as is consistent with a pro
per investigation of the relative merits of the
thousands of claims for Executive favor
which have accumulated in the several De
partments.

PHIUOSEAITIRE.
It is said that there are pretty plain iaiiss
lions that the passage of the Irish Church
bUI by the English Parliament will be foi- j
lowed by another piece of liberal legislation
in the interest of reform. There is pending
in the House of Commons a bill providing for
the repeal of the law of primogeniture—a
British institution which conservative Eag
glishmen have always considered one of the
bulwarks of the Government, bnt which the
practical common sense of liberal men no w
recognizes as hurtful and unjust. The law, in
substance, provides that when a man dies
possessed of real estate,of which he has abso
lute ownership, without having made any
disposition of it in his wil', the woole shill
descend to his heir-at-law, who is defined to
be “the eldest male among those of the same
degree of kindred.” Ia other words, a man’s
eldest son inherits all his property; and if
there are no sons, the wife and daughters are
left ia poverty; while the estate is transferred
by the law to the next male relative, who -
ever he may be. This unnatural provision is
as old as Norman supremacy ia England, and
is a worthy relic of feudal semi-barbarism, it
is wholly in the interest of the
aristocratic class, for the perpetuation
of whose family names and titles
it was designed. But it is oppressive to the
people ; and now that their day of power
has, at last, dawned, it is likely that they
will strike down a system which discrimi
nates against them. Sensible Englishmen
of this age have not failed to scrutinize the
results of the operation of this law, and to
perceive how greatly they are at variance
with the true interests of the nation. The
| land is held as a monopoly by a small body
I of men who thus have absolute control over
' the prices of food; who abuse tbeir power
1 over their tenants to advance selfish political
designs; who devote vast tracts to purposes
!of pleasure while their countrymen are
i starving around them; and who, often, under
the law of entail, are compelled to retain
, ownership of land whioh is disproportionate
i to their means, and which lies idle beoaase
they cannot either improve it or sell it. The
conduct of profligate young noblemen who,
of late years, have squandered abroad ihe
| wealth accumulated under the system of pri
: mogeniture, also has contributed 11 the dis
: gust of the people, and to the demand for a
repeal; and the feeling has bee i intensified •
by the increasing prominence of the middle
classes, who, acquiring wealth, begin to
manifest that universal human desire to pos
sess land.
Of course the whole of the opposition to
the law comes from the plebeians; and only
the most liberal of these. The gentry and
nobility—from the lowest to the highest—will
I favor retention of the ancient system. In
| this they will be sustained by the conserva
! lives of the lower classes—bigoted, bullet
headed Britons—who cannot unders and the
excellence of any innovation, and who are
j ever ready to declaim against the slightest
attack upon that unsubstantial thing, the
: British constitution. Even the friends of the
; bill are only mildly liberal. The bill provides
system villi, at length,fall Into geucr&l disuse.
Of the good effect of the bill the liberals havo
no doubt, and the only question now Is, will
it pass? Although some ferocious assaults
have been mdde upon it in tho
House of Commons, it has mot
with much less opposition than was
anticipated, and it is thought that nearly the
whole liberal vote can bo counted upon In its
favor. The liberal majority Is about 1 18,and,
even allowing for defections from tho ranks,
we may regard the success ol the measure as
nearly absolutely certain. It will havo a
harder time in the House of Lords, hut if the
pc ere know that tho popular wish d3mands
their affirmative action, they wßVhudfy ven
lure to withhold it. But the osSJoofc is a
gloomy one for them. WitM&sltSsh church

IBpeclal Despatch to the PblO. Evening Bulletin.]
Washington, April I.—There Is reason to be
lieve that the 'administration finds the Cuban
question somewhat embarrassing, although not
unwilling to express the sympathy which is
universally felt with the Revolutionary cause.
Our outstanding difficulties with England, grow
ing In part out of her hasty recogntUon of the
belligerency of our own rebels, and the very re
cent diplomatic correspondence upon that point,
add to the necessity for proceeding with caution.
There Is consequently a strong disposition to
postpone action for the present.

Uabou 3L—According to a weekly financial Journal
Secretary Boutwell has decided that the Coiled States
should not assume tbe responsibility of acting as the re
demption agent of tbe national b*t£ks, and no po «©r baa
been conferred upon the Treasury Department to do bo,
nor will the Department become an indirect agent in
assisting to keep afloat and in circulation national bank
notes in such a condition that, ware they Uoi'ed States
notes,they would be at once cancellod and destroyed sand
Aisistant 1 rcaaurera and colleetinc officers of the United
State* are therefore instructed that the same reasons
which would cause Assistant Treasurer* to withhold
from circulation and tend to Washington for destruction
notes of the United States will cause them to refuse to
receive notes of the national banks which are no longer
fit to be kept in circulation.

Mr. Ward, a member of the Reconstruction
Committee, addressed tbe House in advocacy of
tbe bill, which be regarded as necessary for the
reconstruction ol the Slate of Mississippi. He
expressed bis surprise at tbe position taken by
tbe Democrats in opposition to the measnre,
supposing them to have oeen adverse to all mili
tary governments.
Mr. Marshall explained that the Democratic
members did not oppose tbe bill from any love of
military government, but because they preferred
even that to handing over an nnfortnnate
people to the tender mercies of a sot of robbers,
who represented no people, bnt merely soueht to
prey upon tbe people of Mississippi.
Mr. Ward went op to say that he was not so
much surprised at tbe opposition to the bill de
veloped by tbe gentlemen from Illinois and Mas
snebusetts (Messrs. Farnsworth and Dawes), be
cause he had observed their growing conservative
tendencies; bnt tbat when the gentleman from
Obio (Sebenck) advocated tbe same doctrine, be
felt like addressing to bim the same exclamation,
“ And thon too, Brntns!”
He could not exactly account for his position.
He spoke of tbe terrorism that existed in Missis
sippi when tbe vote was taken on the Constitu
tion, and declared that if the vote were fairly
taken there wonld be an overwhelming majority
for tbe Conetitntion. Tbe postponement of the
question wonld only result to the benefit of
traitors. He defended the Union mon of Missis
sippi from tbe flings and aspersions to wbicb
ibey were subject, as “carpet-baggers” and
‘ scalawags," and characterized them as earnest,
raitbfn), brave men, who bad goue to work In
dead earnest to frame a good government and
reeonstrnct tbe Btnte of Mississippi.
Mr. Maynard spoke in advocacy of the bill,
apd characterized the position ot Messrs. Dawes
:md Farnsworth as one which did gross id just Ice,
unconsciously, he was aware, to Union man of
Mississippi. The great mistake of the Govern
ment during the war, and during the process of
ri construction, was that It coarted and consulted
its enemies In the South, and left its friends to
take care of themselves In the bost way they
could. To suppose that the rebeU were going
lo reconstruct loyal governments in 'ho South
was to suppose what wonld never happen.
