PHILADELPHIA'S DISGRACE.
Philadelphia possesses :many sources of a
just civic pride; her comfortable barites, her
schools; her churches . , her colleges, her hospi
tals, her countless charities, her public squares
and her grand Park, her Water-Works, her in
stitutioUs of science and art, her great indus
trial establiShments, and other things beside,.
in which hereitizeits take an honest pride. But
it neither honest nor wise to ignore or denY.
the tact tint Philadelphia, as a city, has a pos-'
SeSSithl which foul blot and 'disgrace upon
her good name, - in which everyman, woman
and child is interested, and for which all are,
in their measure; responsible. - We mean the
“Bedford street district" of the Fourth Ward.
Bedford Street, With' its ramifications, is a
horrible' Stain and sliathe''uPon-anY coniniu;
nity profes§ing to •he 'civilized. Within the
three squares of that single street, between Fifth
and Eighth streets, is a population of three th
N 0124 people who are living the lives and dying
the deaths Of.hrtnes.' Every form of human
misery and deeyadation; every shade of physical
filth 'and moral pollution; every element of. ab
ject wretchedness and hopelessness that can
curse a human being, are to he tbund, without
the seeking, by any one who has pity enough
and nerve enough to walk through that plague
spot of proud Philadelphia. Vice casts away
es - ell the few rags of concealment which it wears
elsewhere, and brazens it out, there, in all
the nakedness of its most hideous deformity.
Want and Crithe, twin-brothers as they ' are,
monopolize the wretched sheds and hovels,
called houses, that line the • street and crowd
into its receding courts. The "Inferno" of
Dante presents few worse pictures than can be
studied in life-size, from the groups of miser
able creatures, white and black, stretched in
stupid intoxication in back yards or on the
side-walks, or sitting or lounging about with
the stolid expression of a lost hope, or With the
bold stare or frown of determined wicked
ness. ~
This in the day-time ; but at night, this be
comes decent and orderly and proper, by com
parison with the foul orgies that are witnessed
in the.dens and cellars of Bedford Street. flu
man beings,—just barely human beings,—
herded together promiscuously, as to color and
sex;inhovels where a tnerciful man would, not
stable a horse,—and the reader must supply
from his or her oWn imagination the sickening
results. Rum-shops of the lowest order deal
out the vilest poison, not only at every corner,
but almost at every alternate house. Some of
the worst of these have been broken up,
through an agency of which we shall
speak at another time, but most of
them are driving their devilish trade
with a success that is rapidly enrich
ing their proprietors almost as fitst as it is
destroying their miserable customers. The
whole district is not a large one. Densely
crowded as it is with this wretched population,
it is comprised within the comparatively nar
row boundaries of the centre of the Fourth
Ward. A few blocks cover its entire area, lying
like a black ulcerous blotch upon the fair face
of Philadelphia in an aggregation of crime,
degradation, moral and physical filth, which
cannot. be contemplated without a shudder of
disgust and a blush of the deepest shame. It
is a reproach upon our common eivilization, to
say nothing of our vaunted refinement and
Christianity.
We say nothing, now, of what has been done
in the brave attempt to restore this plague-spot
to decency and health. Noble men and women
have worked for years in the midst of all this
wretchedness, with a devotion which will one'
day have its reward. Something they have ac
complished. Drops have been snatched 'out of
this ocean of corruption, and some inches have
been gained in their patient advances Mimi.,
these strongholds of - sorrow and suffering
uin. But what has been done, amounts to
nothing, when we speak of what remains to be
done. The bold, staring fact remains that,
among all her beautiful ornaments, Philadel
phia wears one brand of disgrace which will
dim the lustre of her brightest jewels, until it is
taken away.
Whose fault is it? It is hard to say whose
fault it is not. It is the fault of the priiSs; it is
the fault of the pulpit; it is the fault of the
municipal authorities; it is the fault of the peo
ple. It is your fault, worthy and gentle reader,
enjoying your evening newspaper at your club,
or in your comfortable home. It is your fault,
fathers and mothers, so wrapped up in the
"nurture and admonition" of your well-cared-
for children, or in the dispensation of your
generous hospitalities, or in the cares and vex
ations of luxurious housekeeping, that you
have neither time, nor thought, nor
money /or these, your wretched . neighbors.
it is your fault, substantial business men of .
Philadelphia, ready for every public enterprise,
liberal — hi your iuveStments, energetic in civic
improvements; philanthropic in your support of
Philadelphia's great and famous charities, but
forgetting or never knowing that Philadelphia's
Park is offset by her Bedford street; that her
Water Works are supplemented by the "rum
nab" of Spalibrd street; that her Girard College
or her University are balanced by such schools
of all degrading vice and licentioustiesS'ascan
not be surpast,ed in * London, Paris, or New
`'York.

• .
It: is in greater or less degree
cverybo.d . ) ; 's fault that it is. \V have drawn
'rno canes-picture, and written 110 exaggerated

man - in Philadelphia may and should verify

the "'Bedford street district", until he has seen
them for himself, and no one ' , cam see them
without'an earnest desire to do something, ac,
duding tolds opportunitY, to do away a con
dition of life in the very heart of this great city
which would be a burning disgrace upon .any
city in Christendom or out of it, and most of
all upon one whose name is the City of Broth
eily Love. '
THE EXCITEMENT, IN ENGLAND. •
We recommend to our readers careful pe-•
080 of the news relating to the Irish Church
bill in Parliament. England now is, in the
vin'y crisis of what m4-prove the most' im-
Portant political contest of her history—a con
test, the reSult of which may be the reVolu
tionizing of her Crovernment. The cable de
spatches 'published by ns.yesterday, giving an
epitome of the opinions of tbe London press
Upon the resolution of the Conservative peers
to destroy the disestablishment bill in the
House of Lords, indicate the 'existence of a
dangerous excitement: The members of the
present HouSe 'of Commons Were elected by
the people upon the distinct issue of the Irish
Church bill; and the advocates 'of 'the'measure
have a .majority — of about 118. NO Plainer
evidence of the popular wish could be given
than this; but, in spite of the fact, the peers
have - pledged themselves to defy the
masses,,
,and to crush a project which has
hearty popular support. The effect of this de
terminatiOn.has been to call forth all the latent
'liberalism of the English people, and to evoke
such expressions of disgust with the aristocracy
as sound strangely from English lips. The
Time.l—ever in accord witlepublic sentiment,
declares that the peers "jeopard themselves
and their interests;" the Telegraph says that
the people,if thus insulted by the lords,"Will no
longer preserve moderation;" the Daily Newq
accuses the House of Lords of endeavoring to
revive its old pretensions as the governing
power of the country; the Star, more ferocidus
than any, utters a revolutionary truth when it
says that "the House of Lords is not a more -
logieal, desirable7a4t.xcusable institution than
the Irish Church." iital that if the bill is de
feated "cries will be • heard calling for the
downfall Own obsolete Chamber,that no longer
disguises Its anachronism of existing by heredi
tary descent."
Coining from Englishinen who have been
taught to reverence their aristocraey,these sen
timents are suggestive and startling. They in
dicate plainly that the - mass of the people are
determined to control the government of the
country, and to refuse submission to the dic
tation of the nobility. They indicate even
more than this, for they furnish sure proof of
the rapid growth of the English people toward
Republican government, and the decay of that
reverence for hereditary rank, which hits hith
erto been the stable foundation of British
aristocracy. It will be well for the peers to
learn the lesson of this outburst of indignation,
and recede from their position. They had bet
ter recognize at once the fact that the House
of Commons rules England now and intends
to rule it in the: future. Under the new suf
frage laws, it is more than ever the representa
tive body of the people ; and
when, as in the case of the Irish
Church bill, it gives overwhelming endorse
ment to a measure, mulish opposition by the
aristocratic tbssils in the upper House, will
simply be suicidal. The wisest policy for the
lords would be to accept the situation, hard as
it is, for they cannot prevent the ultimate pas
sage of the bill. If they vote it down, Mr.
(41adstone will prorogue Parliament, and then
create enough liberal peers to overcome the
present Conservative majority in the House of
Lords. His triumph in this respect is Merely a
question of time. lle has nothing to lose by
delay, either, Ibr defeat now will gain for him
such sympathy among the people that he can
count upon sufficient - popularity - to enable him
to undertake any measure, however bold, to
secure the passage of his bill. Ile will wiu in
either case
But it will lie a fatal day for British nobility
when it treats with contempt this bill, the pas
sage of which is imperatively demanded by the
nation. If we are not mistaken there will be
such an expression of feeling that the whole,
rotten fabrie of class privilege will fall to pieces.
At the least, the lords \ vill take a long stride
nearer to their destruction. They will ,stand
in the humiliating attitude of men who lial;V lost
the game, and at the same time the reverence
of those upon whose sturdy respect their very
existence as a class rests.
The situation is deeply interesting, and will
lie watched with the closest interest by the
American people, who will rejoice at Mr.
Gladstone's success. The news of the, next
few days will tell the whole story. It will in
firrtu the peers have chosen the bet
ter part of submission, or closed their eyes to
the .result and determined to plunge blindly
into ruin.
We are very glad to perceive that English
burlesque and its interpreters, the semi-nude
English blondes, are losing favor in New York_
city, with the people and the press. We re
gard the fact with satisfaction, for it proves
that the reign of this class of foreign artists is
at an end in this country. In no other of our
Large cities but New York, could such un
worthy interpreters of such wretched plays have
won anything like remunerative popularity.
Those who have appeared in this city have
tailed lamentably because their burlesques were
filled-witli-heavy—tuul—stitpitl—huntoirbeeause
tiw members of the companies were very
poor actors and actresses, and because
the women appeared in undress cos
Winos of the most indecent description.
Philadelphia culture would not endure nastiness
- when it was exhibited by superb French artists,_
whose Idstrionism was remarkable; - but when
filth and sheer stupidity were exhibited to
gether, even the depraved appetite of New
York was surfeited. We hope now that man
agerS will decline to present any more of these
cheap English people to their audiences. If
English artists come here, we will of course
welcome them as they deserve; but until first
rate actors and actresses do make their appear
ance, we would much prefer to have legitimate
dnuna interpreted by American artists, of whom
the re are plenty, of the best kind.

Death of the Rev. Father Bombelin.
Our Catholic readers will be deeply grieved
.
to her Oillie decease of theßev:rather'Felix
J. Earbelin, S. J. the 'energetic an' widely
beloved Superior of St. Joseph's. This dis
tinguished iclerg,yorati;died last evening at five
minutes to eight o'clock, of a complication of
diseases in which 'several of the' vital organs
were affected. His illness had assumed an
acute form about alnonth since, but death was
especially „induced by the borsping.of a tumor.
The reverend father Avits knovin to -; a Wide
circle by his remarkable
.assiduity ..nnd faith
fulness in the station to which he had been
aPpointed; and his cultivation, intelligence
and kindly character endeared him to all with
whom he came . in'contact.7 His loss will . be
!ntely felt for a• long season in the eireles,ofl
the church, and in the educational and de
votional societies which he spent his life in
fostering. • '
Father Barbelin completed :his. 'sixty-first
year last mouth, having been born at Lune
ville, Alsace, France,. on the 30th of )lay,
1808. Bred to the church, his theological edu
cation was early commenced in his native
town, but was incomplete at the time of his
emigration, in his twentieth yenr, to this
country. He entered GeorgetoWn College,
where : he finished :his studies,- and .was or
dained there in 1830.. A few months after his
ordination,he was stationed at St: "Joseph's, in
this city, where he died . yesterday,after,nearly
thirty years of faithfulservice : his promotion
as , Superior , took place in 1844. His natural
skill in : organizing and managing associative
enterprises was early felt in the Catholic
world of America; his popularity in the Sun
day School of hik church had a rapid effect in
swelling its 'Umbers until it attained a size
that Would . have been unmanageable to almost
any pastor but himself; and his in
stitution of the Sodality, named, after
the Virgin, and designed to organize the
devotions of young and old believers, was
quickly copied. over the country until, it and
similar institutions were recognized as among
the great binding ties among the Catholics of
the new world. The pastor, in fact,•was of a
family trained in the hues of the Church.
1-1 is elder brother is now Director of the Col
lege of Nobles of St. - Petersburg, Russia; a
younger surviving brother remains in his
native land, and is a Jesiiit Father in the
province of Lyons. his three sisters are all
Sisters of Charity. •
The intense and unremittingindustry which
Father Darbelin applied to his duties gradually
undermined his health, which has been sen-
r•ibly failing for two or three Years, until,
within a month, all his symptoms became ag
gravated, indicating a simultaneous decay of
the liver, kidneys and heart. On Wednesday
last, in a condition of extreme feeblene.ss, the
faitlitul pastor was supported to the altar,
where he succeeded in going through with
the celebration of Mass. Bishop Wood, who as-
sisted the solemnity with his presence, received
his prophecy that he should die the next day.
By care and repose, however, his life AVID: pro
longed until last evening, when he died in his
familiar parsonage, perfectly conscious of Ids
state, and glad to exchange the labors of leis
trust for the benefits of his reward. ' ,
Father liarbelin's body will be exposed to
\ 'joy in St. Joseph's Church all day to-morrow.
On Friday morning the body will be taken to
the Cathedral, where the funeral services will
Le performed. Rev.Dr.O'Hara, one of Father
Bar pupils, will preach the funeral ser-

TILE COURTS
TIRE REGISTRY LAW.
Jts . Constituttonality to be Tested.
Nl.l Pairs—Justice Shar;woo.l.—This morning the
Court took up the case in which Win. C. Patterson and
[hers ;IA for an injunction to restrain the Councils.
Board of Aldermen, and others. from acting tinder the
lb-gistry Law. The bill alleges that the cod li noconsti
tithe:nil. the principal ground of objection „tt h l,ielog
that it prescribes qualifications b , r tiles toro other' than.
tho,c provided in the Constitution. and that it. impose 4
up,ql judicial ufficers duties not judicial, and not pertain
ing to the Judiciary Department of Government, thus
subjecting the rights of the electors to the arbitrary
union of persons assigned to perform duties which the.y,
cannot by law be reqnireil to discharge.,
Hirst opened the dveussion, and referred to the
fact that according to the Registry law one mode of
eleetion is prescribed for the State and another for the
city, livre every election officer is to be Selected by
the Board of Aldermen. This board has the right to
2410 .1111.4,4'n: Mid 2,500 election officers, and yet
no more incompetent body could have been selected.'
All p.ditica I NAYS aro vicious, and this one isyartiou
r 1) so. and he believed It to be flagrant and in viola
tion of the Constitution.:lf tin law had beau dcsigwrd
to le• fair. why make the difference between the Mate
and tie city. The only object is to place despotic power
ill the hands of tho Board of Aldermen, which is lilleoe-
Farily a political body. Under the law a body composed
of men not living ist the Weill have the right to control
• the election in that locality,
Thl, law is in violation or Article 111 of the Constitu
tion. It prescribes a qualifieation not recognized by the
Constitution. It exclude; boarders, and yet there may
Ln 10,01 Xi 20.000 persons of this description distrait
. chised. The Constitution says any •• person," not any
householder. - and therefore this discrimination is unCOll
- The Constitution declares that the tax shall
lie as-wised at least /0 days before the election; this act
declares that it shall be lisFes:iod 20 days before the day of
election. Under this act the fact that a name is on the
list is to be considered OVitiollCe that the party resided in
his election division ten days before the election, and yet
the list is prepared more than ten days before.
This enables ••colonizers" to conic and prevent any per
son calling into question their right to vote, as the list
is to be the only evidence that the . party does reside in
the precinct . and has it, resided for tell days before the
election, and a challenge is prohibited by the net. The
any lie prepared six mouths before the election, and
yet it it: made IL penitentiary offence to call It in question
or to refuse to recognize Its binding - force.

Mr. Ilenry M. Phillips followed, and suggested • that ire

Mr. Geo. W. Middle concluded, canine attention to the
28th section of the act, which prohibits tetsessments later
than the 20th of September, Whereas the Constitution
gives the right to vote to- thotie who have'resided ill their

tion which prOvidets that theltst shall be conclusive evi

The Commissioner of Internal Revenne, / te4
plying to a letter froru John Connell, AsSeSsor
at Toledo, lowa, Concerning his construction
the law that packing pork in balk, putting
it up in barrels and rendering the lard for sale;
was marittfactUriug within the meaning,. 'of the
act; and that parties engaged in the businesS
should be assessed accordingly, says:
Paragraph 318 of section 19 of the act of
June 30, 1844, as subsequently amended, de
fines a Manufacturer any person, firm or cor
poration who shall manufacture by hand any
goods, wares or merchandise not otherwise
provided for, exceeding annnally the sum of
!il,OOO, or who shall be engaged in the mann
facrure or preparation for sale of any article
or compounds, or shall pat up for sale in pack
ages with his own name or trade-mark thereon
anyarticles or compounds, in the language of
the law, all such whose sales exceed 555,000,
shall pay for every additional one thousand
dollars in excess two dollars, etc.
Persons engaged in the business of pork-and
rendering ]arj and paeldng the same in bar
rels, kegs or otherwise, are something more
than mere dealers in pork and lard. They are
clearly embraced in the definition given of a.
manufacturer; and are included among the
persons. firms, &c., who are required to pay a
tax as their sales are in excess of $5,000 an
i inasmuch as they prepare these articles
for sale, and put them up in packages with
their own names-or trade-marks.
The Connnissionet is clearly of the opinion
that persons engaged in the business above re
ferred to should required to pay a special
tax as manufacturers, and to return their sales
in excess of 51,250 quarterly, and pay the tax
of ! , :-2 per thousand in such excess.
