EVENING BULLETIN.
Thursday, May G., 11369.
JUSIIICE Jlf PIIILADELPAILIA
Philadelphia cannot over-estimate the bless
ing which she enjoys in a judiciary, com
posed of men of high personal responsibility,
of thorough legal training and ability, and
of a remarkable degree of political impartial
ity. Here and there we have had painful ex
ceptions as to this last quality, but the com
munity is justly zealous of whatever seems to
trench upon a pure administration of justice,
and a strong public opinion has promptly re
buked the judge who may have been
tempted, in the heat of politics, to forget the
obligation of his sacred office.
The rapid increase of crime has aroused
the judges of our criminal courts to new ac
tivity and stronger determination in their ef
forts to guide the public mind toward a higher
appreciation of the dangers which threaten
society. The charges recently made by
Judge Allison and Judge Brewster to the
Grand Juries are excellent illustrations of the
earnest purpose, of our judiciary to leave no
proper measures untried to check the pro
gress of crime and incite the police and other
authorities to greater efforts for the arrest and
punishment of criminals.
Nor are these exertions of the bench con
fined to words. A glance at the single day's
work in the Court of Quarter Sessions, yes
terday, gives a good idea, both of the amount
of labor thrown upon our criminal courts, and
orthe-prompt-and-vigorous-manner in which
justice is meted out by Judge Allison. Two
men, convicted of larceny, were sent to the
County Prison for three years ; a shop lifter
received six months; a professional pick
pocket, one year ; a drunken wretch of a
wife-beater, six months; an assailant of a
police-officer, three months ; a thief, six
months ; a professional burglar, four years ;
a shop-lifter, five months. This is emphati
cally a good day's work, and Judge Allison
is entitled to the gratitute of the community
for every such example of his stern purpose
to do his full duty in suppressing the growth
of crime by decisive action, as well as by
eloquent words.
There is much more to be done, in this di
rection, beside the conviction and sentencing
of thieves and drunken wife-beaters. These
are to be done, but not so as to leave other
things undone. There are higher and more
dangerous grades of rascality which enjoy a
degree of immunity at the hands of the law,
for which our judges are not responsible.
Between the police and the District-Attorney
this responsibility must be divided. So long
as well-dressed villainy walks oar public
streets in broad-cloth and fine linen; so long
LB notorious gamblers ply their fatal trade
under the very eye of the law; so long as the
scoundrels who destroy the sacred rights of
the citizen at the ballot-box, and by secret
fraud and open violence set the law at de
fiance; so long as rascality is permitted to be
respectable; so long as our prison system is
so abused as to afford to fashionable
criminals, as Judge Allison says,
"the use of the corridors of the prison, the
free access of friends, and the supply of
luxuries which money will procure," our
judges are comparatively helpless to aid the
cause of justice. They can inquire more
narrowly into the odious system of profes
sional bail, the fruitful cause of much crime,
and they cart inflict the penalties of the law
when District-Attorneye prosecute and juries
convict; but they cannot be expected to do
everything.
The public must support and encourage
every honest and pare judge who, like Judge
Allison or Judge Brewster, takes open and
brave stand against public abuses and crime•
Being human, and being, moreoverairessed
with an overwhelming amount of duty, they
are liable to err, at times. But so long as the
community retains its present confidence in
the integrity and moral courage of the Judi
diciary, the members of the bench will be
cordially upheld, when they are right, and
kindly and courteously criticised, when they
are wrong.
TERES GREAT RAILROAD.
W 4 are officially informed that the con-.
section between the Union Pacific and the
Central Pacific Rows, will be made on the
gib instant. California
.bas_forwarded_ a
gold.4lFiliefi cross-tie to complete the Western
link, and the Union Pacific has stretched out
its eleven hundred miles of rail across prairie
and hill and mountain range and river and
ravine, until it has met the advancing line
from California, and so completed the great
trans-continental highway of America.
rersonal observation ie the only thing that
can convey an adequate idea'of the material
Magnitude of this wonderful work. But a
partial conceptinemay be formed by a refe
rence to the amount of some of the material
consumed upon the construction of the Union
Pacific alone. One hundred and ten thou
sand tons of rails have been required for its
single track, with a million fish-plates, two
million bolts and fifteen million' spikes.
Twenty thousand workmen and eight thou
sand mule and horse teams have been em
ployed, and these men have traveled many
times the length of the road on foot,
in all seasons and exposed to all weather
driving forward the unrivalled enterprise with
that enterprise with which the master mind
of Durant seems to have inspired hie whole
army from his highest engineer,or contractor,
or superintendent, down to his lowest team
ster or wood cutter. Three and a half mil
lion cross-ties have been cut and hauled,
while countlesS millions of feet of timber
have been consumed in the construction of
bridges and other works. A splendid series
of Macbine and Repair Shops, Water-Sta
tions, Engine Houses and other substantial
buildings have been constructed, and an am
ple supply of locomotives and other rolling
stock is ready for the opening business of the
road. All this has been done in a little more
than three years, and it stands alone, is the
history of the period, as the grandest proof
of American enterprise, energy and skill.
What the future of the Pacific Railroad is
to be no human foresight can predict. That
it is to traverse, within a few years, a vast
region teeming with an industrious popula
tion, creating an ever-increasing local travel
and traffic; and that it is also the first of the
two or three great channels of the world's
travel and traffic, Connecting all the great in
terests of America with the enormous com
mercial resources which are only beginning
to develop themselves in Eastern Asia, are
facts easily to be seen, but impossible to ap
preciate in all their importance and extent.
The same vigor and forecast and indomitable
perseverance which have combined to com
plete the great enterprise within such an in
credibly brief period, will doubtless be ap
i lied to the future management of the Pacific
Railroad, as its affairs will be conducted
under the wholesome stimulus of the com
petition which will eventually spring rip as
other and rival roads are organized and built.
The completion of the road on Saturday
next will be an event of national importance
and interest. The Governor of Galitorni
will lay the connecting rail,and there will un
doubtedly be a general rejoicing in the grand
army of construction whose two wings will
meet to celebrate the termination of these
years of unremitting and unexampled labor.
It will be a holiday long to be remembered
by all who have borne any part in the great
enterprise; and the whole country will unite
in congratulating the men who have had the
nerve and the ability to conquer all opposi
tion, surmount all obstacles, and so to win
their grand victory over Nature and Knavery.
The establishment of public drinking-foun
tains for man and beast is an excellent thing.
But is it pecuniary to make these fountains
as ugly as the first specimens are ? In Liver
pool and other English towns, drinking
fountains have been erected, which are no.
only useful but ornamentaL In Philadelphia,
if we are to take the first two structures as
samples of the Society's ideas on the subject,
the fountains may assuage the thirst of tra
velers, but they will certainly impress them
with very uncomfortable ideas as to
the Society's regard for the cultivation
of the'fine arts. The drinking-fountain is a
new institution, and a very commendable
one. But we cannot but plead for fountains
that wit not be perpetual architectural eye
sores to the public. Of course, handsome
and graceful fountains will cost more money
than the ugly blocks of granite now being
piled together in our streets, but it would be
better for the Biciety to move a little more
slowly, and to do its work in a style that
will contribute somewhat to the aesthetic
education of the people,at the same time that
it supplies its much-noeded refreshment to
man and beast.
WIRE FIN E ak.1111.14.
Tint painter Bo milton has spent a busy winter.
and a number of large works are at the present
moment ready for delivery to their several pur
chasers. These may be seen at various depOts,
chiefly at the studio of the artist, and form a
pre ttv round answer to such of his fri ends as
think that Hamilton's 81.31 e wants variety. We
scarcely in fact recall icy [minus of the fecun
dity ot Mr. Hamilton who has created so many
fetch &theta As a specimen of his older taste we
nia3 point to the "Thalia," (No. 164 at the
Aci,den.o) rtccntly purchased by Mr. Gibson,
but not avt ry late painting. This composition,
which r( presents the god Balder receding over
the ocean in an apocal) pse of storms
tat d temple ga, (receding to his death:
for the sad Scandinavian gods were mortal) is
one of the most striking works the painter has
produced for years. If we have any sense of art,
or let Hug for that critical distance which sepa
rates the poet from the pot taster, we recognize
thin piclure as something dignified and almost
awful. In the same exhibition, (No. 118) is one
of his largest pray pictures, the 'Brigantine
shoals during a Gale." It is a turbulent piece of
painted motion, in which sunless waves seethe
under a sunless sky the "gray," recently con
tributed to art by Hamilton, we might almost
say created by him, is not entirely to; of taste;
but a much higher authority than, tle=the first
colorist in America—has expredsed to us his
liking for and approval of" Hamilton's good
gray, dipping into purple.'
At the studio of the painter are three large pic
tures, just finished and about to be removed to
private galleries. The finest is a representation
of the Thames at London Bridge, from one of
Hamilton's old English studies. The poetry of
Loudon foe has hardly been better realized,
Even by Turner. The coppery sky and weltering,
sanguinary sun reflected in the river, the black,
dripping barges, the half real, unreliable-looking
bridges, the monument, with the large dim fore
head of be. Paul's peeping over it like a deceased
wife in one of klumler's photographs—the paint
er's treatment of all these objects shows his abil
ity to make diabierie out of one of the most pro
aide and ugliest of cities. Another superb
picture represents storm-clouds on a flat
shore, splendidly penetrated with golden
spokes from the setting sun. A third
la one of Hamilton's direct transcripts
of nature, executed as literally as that
overmastering imagination will permit,
and represents the sun sinking through banks of
dismal clouds over a saudened, flattened Boa,
which turns up its t liver-edged knives to smooth
thetheirlilo_egsee_weapsome piece of meehan- .
ism. This has been finished `for one of our
wealthy bankers, who seems disposed to do
for our tieing art what Florentine bankers
did for the art of Tuscany in lie infancy
three hundred years ago. The three last
mentioned are large, careful pictures, elaborate
. a pr. eeious of the painter's talent. Pwo more
11.. e Owes, of on upright shape, have attracvd
:u ten Ira. at Emit's. galleries, wheretthey setln to

The exhibition of water-colore. at 1884 Chest
nut street is still open day and evening, but its
frequenters are rather select than numerous. Al
though it is a fashionable thing to buy a handful
of tickets for the sake of the Hospital, the pur
chasers do not always take UM trouble to go to
the gallery afterwards—a procedure which tells
better for their hearts than their cultivation. The
arrangement of these pictures has been a labor
of love to the owners of them, a circle of art pa
trons who have a special predileetion for the
kind of painting represented, and who have lav
ished from their own galleries the treasures which
form the collection. As they hang, the water
colors at the Artiste' Fund make :a better expoal
don of the art as understood by its
masters, than we have ever had. The
most dexterous Eaglieh brushes are
represented, and that American water-color art
which is really in pupilage to tbe British may be
!mina in some of its best expressions. A
small company of American water-color pioneers
—they are nearly all New Yorkors—visited the
gallery on Tuesday, and were very much pleased
kith the exhibition, of which most of the pictures,
contributed from private galleries, wore new to
them, and were regarded as elements of 'Denny
lion. Si) far, in fact, [be labor of the gentlemen
who have arranged these rare and delicate works,
has redounded more to the benefit of our artists
than to the culture of the public. This is not the
way to prove our city an Athena. When the
Athenians had good works of art among thorn, it
lb probable they knew it.
'lna PAINTINGS AT EARLEEI' GALmmins.—Thos.
11111's fine painting of the Yo• Semite Valley, and
the interesting "Eruption of Vesuvius. 1868," by
Lierstadt, can only be examined one day longer,
as they will be removed after to-morrow. These
large landscapes ehould be studied before their
withdrawal by all who hare not seen them. Th. ,
Vesuvine" is probably the moat literal and able
representation of a grand volcanic convulsion
ever noted down by art for the benefit of science.
The "Yo-Semite," more interesting for its paint
ing quality, is, we are inclined to say, the su
preme delineation of American scenery produced
up to this time. Let every one see it before It
goes, and thus travel without leaving home.
The artists are talking about Fennimore. lic
may be called the hero of the annual exhibition
of 1869; hie success will date from this Spring.
It is certain that no other painter has made such
a stride—so completely distanced himself. 01
his pictures at the Academy, the professionals
env that the "Columbia Bridge" (169), is cm:to
pic(' by a sky of the purest and richest quality,
that the "Schuylkill" (208) recalls Paul Weher
in his most poetic moods, and that,. the lame
"Mount Washington" (127), though Laying less

of the uneatirfactory condition of oar domeetic trade.

Nxw YORE, May 6.—The money market is
fairly active, 7 ner cent. being the ruling rate on
all classes of coilaterals. In the new and strong
position of the banks, from the continued receipt
of currency from the interior, the attempt to
make money strong by artificial means appears
futile. Unusual speculation in stocks,this morn
ing, has operated to make money more active
than would have been the case under ordinary ,
circumstances. Prime discounts range from 7'
to 9 per cent. ."
The Secretary of the Treasury to-day cotn
menu(' the eale of the second million of gold.
It occasioned less excitement than the last sale.
Fifteen bide were receind, amounting to $7,-
030,000, ranging from 135;,1 to 136 22-100.
Awards were made to Henry Clews & Co., for
$250,000 at 13618=100; $250,000, 136 20-100; $250,-
000, 136 22-100. Adams, Kimball & Moore, $250,-
000 at 180 17.100. These rates are a fraction
lower than the market price at the
time of the award. Gold opened at 136,
and bee since advanced to 13631 on moderately
active transactions. The strength in the pre
nAtim is attributed to the advance of 4 per cent.,
to 44, in the rate of discount of the Bank of
England, producing a decline in government
bonds from 30).i. to 794 cash. Gold is abundant;
8 1-32, 7M, 7 and 9 per cent. are paid to have
balances carried. F.oreign exchange continues
fi t rang at 10*, for prime bankers' sixty day
01 Ils.
Governments are dull and devoid of interest.
Speculators manifest little disposition to pur
chase at present prices, owing to the decline in
Loudon. The general market is about 56(§31
lower than best prices yesterday. The only de
mand noticed .is a small one from investors.
Slate bonds arc moderately dealt in, without im
portant change.
The upward speculation in Railroad shares was
renewed to-day with great vigor, with the "bulls"
In the ascendancy. The market opened weak at
a slight decline . -from the closing quotations of
last night., but tas the day advanced, rumors were
current on the street that the bill legalizing the
80 per cent. scrip dividend on Central would
sun ly pass to-day. The prices of Central ad
vat.ced rapidly from 17034 to 17834. The entire
market sympathized. Pacific Mail advanced 1.4';

ment.
NEW Your:, May 6.—Wall street is excited to
day. Money is active at 7 per cent. Exchange
strong. Gold active and excited. The Assistant
Treasnrer opened proposals, snd $1,000,000 of
government gold were taken at 136 17-100®136
