THE CURTIN DENIONSTRATIONS.
A.:1)1lblic man, who has patronage to dis
pense, often has honors and compliments of
fered to him. The sincerity of these is some
times open to question; for there are always
hordes 'of people who engage in party politics
as a profession, and who flatter for favor •and
for gain. It .is a public :man ceases -to
have power and patronage, that he is able' to
prove the fidelity of those who were his fol
lowers in the time of his power. Andrew G.
Ctuiin, late Governor of Pennsylvania, and the
accredited. Minister of the United States to the
Cmit - of St. Petersburg, is now in that posi
tion,: has.been out of office for nearly two
years and a half; the, office to which he has
been 'called -by the President and Senate is
without patronage, and it removes him so far
from his country and his State, that he cannot
ewemomploy the influence he May possess upon
those who remain at horne with patronage to
idispense. •
hi , View , of all this, the honors offered to
itlioveinor Curtin, by his fellow-citizens of
Pennsylvania, on the eve of his departure for
Russia, are to be received as sincere expres
sions of their affection; their respect and their
olltitude for his faithful services. as their Chief
Magistrate in the most trying period of their
history. The hundreds of good citizens of
Pennsylvania, who united to give him a fare
welklinner on Saturday, had no favors to ask
of him; nor had the hundreds of good women
who assembled to witness the proceedings after
the dinner. They were all there simply to do
honor to the man Who had been their guide
and their hope-,—their faithful servant as well
.as their . capable leader—through six momen
tonsYears, four of which were years C*an
guishi fear and. anxiety, such as none of them
hail ever before experienced. President Grant
and the Senate of the United States, having
recognized the great services of Governor Cur
tin offering him an important foreign mis
sion,:the people a Pennsylvania, by their late
proceedings, have simply been adding to this
their' own earnest and grateful recognition Of
those services. •
Among the holiest Republicans, and among
all tbe intelligent and respectable Democrats of
Pennsylvania, the name of Andrew G. Curtin
is always mentioned with respect. Among the
.mercenaries and the disreputable oft/ both
parties, he is disliked now, because he N4t.s not
only beyond their influence when he was in
power, but because he was their enemy, as he
was the enemy •of every unworthy citizen
during the period of 'the rebellion. lie has
been abused, and he is still abused, by the
worst of the Copperheads, and by a petty fac
tion in the Republican party that could have no
power but for the lavish use of ill-gotten
money: It is_in scorn-of this faction, that the
people of _Philadelphia and of other parts of.
Pennsylvania have .lately been honoring
Andrew G. Curtin; and now, as he goes across
the seas, with the good wishes and prayers of
the best people of Pennsylvania accompanying
him, he can look back with even greater indif
ference than ever upon the impotent assaults
made upon him by the corrupt and the envious.
HAGGERTYISM.
The steady resistance which the Ilag,gerty
party has encountered in the Corm', of Quarter
Sessions is the subject of much sincere csatis 7
faction among the law-loving people of Phila
delphia. It begins to look as if we are ap
proacbiog.a time when "Rings," generally, are
to be broken up in this conununity by the
steady-force of that old-fashioned public senti
ment which me sometimes called "old fogy
ism," but which hag, thus fitr, kept the social
.condition of Philadelphia much healthier thkut
that of inflated, noisy, Democratic New York.
The "Haggerty crowd" is a collection of in
dividuals, small in number but gifted with a
large amount of audacity, and so thoroughly
,skilled in the clever arts and tricks by which
the strong arm of the law is evaded, and crime
committed with impunity, that they have en
joyed,,for years past. an almost perfi?et, Munn
nity from .all interference and punishment.
This handful of men have thus attracted the
admiration of a large body of lesser ruffians,
- Who look upon their feats of lawlessness with
a sort af reverentialawe, while they have become
the tenor of timid, orderly, law-abiding citi
zens. Their successes in violating the peace
of the community 'have been such that they
have rapidly become bolder, until they have
done, what such outlaws generally do, trans
cended the limits of the last tolerance of the
law.
It is foreign to the very idea of Philadelphia
%society tbat this sorC _of modern—brigandage
should long go unrebuked, and when James
Ilaggerty, in some cases alone, and in others as
one of his gang, connnittod the outrages of last
falland Winter, it became evident that their
day had come.
From that day to this, they have resorted to
all their familiar tricks with the law, hi vain.
Etrawliail, a flight from justice; tampering
with witnesses, and otker nieces of rascally
. cleverness - haVe - been - resorted to, witoutsuc
cess. The "Haggerty Ring" meets, at all
points, with a resistance, which . comes limn
the fact that its operations are in
Philadelphia, and not in New York. We
have kept our ;Judiciary singularly pure. Here
and there we way have a judge, as.was found
last fall, W . ho has yielded his high position of
official Integrity, to serve a party out of which
• all this rascality springs; hut we have no
,judge
bef ore Whom onlaws oV•the Haggerty type
dare tocorne•with any hope of receiving any
thing bUt the severest justice. Our criminal
judgea h ave l i e points of sympaihy with thiS
4 4 Ring,”.- and, the .strictness and 'energy
with , which-the , severalnattemptscape-the-
Indictments , . now bulging over Haggerty and
half-a-dciien'thoreof the same sort, have been •
met and kriStrated, are worthy of till praise
The last attempt of thissort was disposed of
by Judge Hiewster's able decision of the
ItlcAnariy case on SaturdaY;and - the refuSal to
release this hail of Haggerty's from the forfeit
ure of his recognithnces. That 'the . Court
has not strained. its prerogative of
justice at the expense of mercy
is sufficiently shoWn by the reduction of
McAnany's forfeitures to $3,000, and. the stay
of the execution until the fist Monday of. July,
to afford further opportunity to produce the •
witness Hill, who has been bought up and.
spirited away. .
The community Will be benefited in more
ways than one by this firm and steady attitude
of our Criminal Courts. The enforcement of
the law in this case is a deSth-bloW to the
corrupt system ofstraw-bail.and of professional
bail-goers. This fruitful source of the rapid
growth of crime and of the depreCiation of the
moral tone of the community is likely to he
cut up by the loots, 'by this example. The
prosecution of such forfeitures of bail as this
McAnany's has become so rare as to be con
sidered obtolete. If it is now vigorously re
vived, we shall see fewer men willing to put
their names to bail-bonds, and the nefarious
business of fraudulent bail-going will be bro-
Ifrn
More than this, the . community will be
greatly benefitted by the demoralization of the
Haggerty ring. Haggerty, McMullin, Tobin,
Whitney, and the Aherns, who were all charged
by Officer Hill as Imrticipants in the murderons
assault upon him in November last, have all
. shown by their subsequent conduct that they
recognize the expediency of a subinission to
the laws, and the peace of Philadelphia
is much promoted thereby. The senti
ment of this community is over
whelmingly in favor of the most uncom
promising enforcement of the strictest construc
tion of the laws toward all offenders against
the publielmi.* and the public peace, whether

BRIDGING BROAD STREET.
The intersection of Broad street and the
Germantown Railroad has long been a danger
ous place for vehicles, and is necessarily be
coming more so, as the driving increases in that
direction. The precautions taken by the Rail
road Company have, thus titr, prevented fre
quent adidents; but, as time goes on, it be
comes Mole and more evident that it is not safe
for the railroads radiating from Philadelphia to
cross over main streets, in the suburbs,at grade.
The question of crossing the Germantown road
at Broad street by means of a bridge is now
being ogitzted, and should engage the serious
consideration of our authorities. The project
appears. to be easily practicable and, if
carried out, will remove all the risk
and uneasiness to which oar citizens are now
exposed, in travelling Broad street. That street
has not only beCome the favorite pleasure-
drive of Philadelphia, but also one of the prin
cipal avenues of communication for the sur
rounding agricultural population, and it is cer
tainly ery important that it should be
thoroughly protected, at a point where it is
crossed by seventy or eighty trains every day.
By a depression of the railroad track, five or
six feet.a sufficient elevation can readily be ob
tained for a bridge. The necessary change of
the glade of Broad street at that point would
--require ah act of the Legislature, and it would
be well if the City Councils wouldgive the sub
ect such timely attention as would prepare
them to apply for the necessary legislation, next
winter.
Even should the Germantown . and Naris
own 'Railroad Company unite in the grand
acme of concentrating all our roads at the
rojected Union Depot in West Philadelphia,
there would still be an amount of freight Craf
t c over the present route to make the bridging
f Broad street a very proper premution. The
subject is one in which the inhabitants of the
Twenty-first, Twenty-sebond, Twenty-fifth
and Twenty-eighth Wards are, especially, in
terested; and although the accidents at the
point referred to have been, thuS far, very few,
there can be no doubt that the risk of such ac
cidents must increase every year, unless some
such precaution is taken to prevent them.
THE TEMPLAItS
The festival known in the calendar as St.
John's DaY, is to be celebrated to-morrow in a
peculiar andpiost interesting manner. It will
be the fiftieth anniversary of the St. John's
Commandery of the Masonic Knights Templar.
Already the citizen observes many strangers in
he streets, and these, bearing some badge, are
recognized as representatives of this revived
order of chivalry from nearly every part, of the
United States. It is expected that several
thousands 'of Knights Templars will join in the
.demonstration of to-morrow. From the ap
pearance of those already arrived, and from the
specimens of uniform, regalia and paraphernalia
generally, that have been seen, it can easily be
predicted that the parade of to-morrow will be
uncommonly line.
The Ancient Order of Freemasons has pro
bably never been in so flourishing a condition
in America as it is now, and it is command
ing intich more respectful attention from the
mnnasonic portion of the community than it
ever did before.. The coining demonstration
by the Knights Templars, being novel and
unique in its. character, is expected with unu
stud interest. The Knights may be called
picked Men, for they are physiCally, mentally;
ittoMlly_ and_ socially, above the average of the
classes that usually appear in public pageants.
The_good_work., that_llasoluy Is-doing mid hag
been doing unintcrruptedly for ages, commends
every branch of the institution to the generous
hospitality of the public at large, 'lnd we are
sure this will be extended to the stranger
Knights by the community of Philadelphia.
To-morrow protases to be almost a general
holiday, and we trust everything will be done
to make the sojourn of our visitors agreeable.

policy of retrenchment and refnianprbinised by

will save "several iniliioius annually,
and pay the interest on a large amount of the
national debt. There may be cases' of hard
ship in the dismissals; but the Government is
pledged to economy, and the removals will ob
viate the necessity of heavy'apPropriations next
session in the 'shape or a &Maley bill: Be
sides all this, clerking at Washington is a very
poor and very demoralizing , bUsiness, and there
is so much honest work of all kinds waiting to
be done all over this great country, that the
dismissed clerks, if they are energetic and wise,
will live to bless the day when they were re

Senator John Scott was among the company
assembled on Saturday evening to do honor to
Governor Curtin. Philadelphians had thus an
opportunity of making his acquaintance, and of
hearing him make a speech. The result grati
,
fied every one, for it proved that Pennsylvania
has a Republican Senator who can - make a
statesmanlike speech, and not a mere tirade - of
personalities. Mr. Scott's retnarks upon the
rejection of the Johnson-Clarendon treaty con
tained the only direct allusion. of the evening
to the difficulties with Great Britain. As a
Senator who voted-for .that --rejectiony-his--as
surance that no Senator so voting ever dre.omed
that it could lead to a war, ought to remove all
such ideas among the nervous and foolish on
both sides of the ocean.

THE _MEE WORMS,
These aro the trees of the city ;
But 0 ! What a horrible pity!
They seem alive with the loathsome worm
See him wriggle, and twist, and squirm,
As he hangs from the trees of the city.
These are the measuring worms ;
Each of them wriggles and squirms
To his heart's delight,
By day and by night,
From the leaves of the trees of the cite
This is the diligent sparrow, .
Who lives in a bird box, so narrow ;
He gobbles the worm,
Who no longer can squirm
On his web, from the trees of the city
This is the feminine cat
Who likes to grow hearty and fat,
By eating the sparrow,
Bones, feathers, and marrow,
Who gobbles the worms ;of the city
This is the dog, that worries the cat,
Whether he's lean, or whether he's fat,
The "catchers" love to follow him round,
And worry him into the dog-catcher's pound
These are the citizens, all
Who dress at the GREAT BROWN HALL
And object to the pound,
Where they put the dogs
That worry the cats
That kill the birds
That gobble the worms
That swing in your face
From every place
Under the trees of the city.

The New York Money Market.
(From the New York Herald of to-day.)
Sestnay, June 13,—The week in Wall street was one
of great excitement in the stock market,where the "bull"
epeculation eo long rife received a ,most ;decided check,
if, indeed, it haisnot Culminated for the present season.
In tracing the bourse of valuee at the Stock Exchange
we shall find that ever since midwinter there has been a
stead y and upward movement in the railways.
and/. by sympathy, in most of Abe miscellaneous
list.-persistent 'and determined had been
this movement that when one of the prominent
cliques innuettrated a different policy and went
"short" of the market there was a general and confident
belief that their Isoldrweet would-result In their ruin: But
they pereevered, in- face .:(if the popular current, won
strength front the ranks of their opponents. and suc
ceeded at length in occasioning one of the greatest
"breaks' of the pest eventful year. Such, lu brief, is
the record of the 'deck market. All its movement/5 and
its history for the last two weeks hinge upon the magnifi
rent "Leer" attack. for anal even the sullen-re must ad
mit it to be. The. depression was greatest on Thurs.day
Ipst.nial shier that tune prices have decidedly impreved,
partially under the purehaees to cover speculative sales
as %Alms throligh ree hid of the bullkh feelint. It re
mains to. e mnet whether this , improvement is permanent: ,
The stock market was meet-ran thoroughly in the lambi
of t berth/nee as at thepresent time. '7 - Wilt etriChtt go qtp
again. 'er is this pause only preliminary to another sharp
decline? Su-la are the questions agitating the mind of
the ''entstde psi lic'.7 who are die Sport of the Wan
street corehinetimee One thing is pretty certain, the
old.sbrewd op/Teton, arc getting ready for their summer
rustication, and are mammy, ring to withdraw fn on •
the market aspptitably as. possible. They are enor
mously "ahead.-- as prlCes note stand. for they have
been " carrying •' ever since the rise c: / mmenced. While
sojeurning at Saratoga. Newport awl Long Branch
they will prefer to letve the public do this "carrying"
for them, satisfied that the saute et't.r pt7//'-rons nubile
will mint theta their investmehte at far che7perntea•
next fall, when limner becomes steadily stringent awl
stocks undergo the usual fall crisis. Another
prominent feature of the week was the s udden
stringency of the Money market on Thurs
day last. when as high use quarter of one per cent, per
day interest was paid on call. There was a moderation
of theee rides to gold into•reat, and eretptionallr geren
per eent. in Sat/inlay: but it is yet a singular state of
things that in June. when inonee has been wort h on ly
Ilirtv nod four_per eela it abotild conanniml these*mot
-151tar... r7.17 ,1 g. .ct the tv - , -. ;-Y market IS in an un
healthy «tate. and whether the blame hes with Mr.liout
well for increasing his currency balance to the detri
ment of the business interest. of the city.
or whether it is the result of Tirtincial
intlneuccs. or a combination of these with that natural
drain of currency to supply a brief demand from the
country districts. from the watering places. in their pro
cess of renovation, and for the gathering of the wool
crop and the like. it is discreditable to ns a pa/pie
that such mat t ere ehould occasion en much derangement.
No cliques 'ought to be able to' make even a 7 per cent.
mousy market in June, while the withdrawal of the
trifling MILLS required for the wool crop or for the
preparation of Kummer resorts should not he felt
In the least. The banks on Saturday showed a dis
position to contract. and they ton are likely to
cause spasmodic fluctuations; for while no day is as
yet specified. it is only reasonable to expect that the
Comptroller of the currency will soon call for their
statement. Mr. Bontwell meant right in trying to fight,
the; gold ganiblers.and counted upon a summer of ease in
money. but he has been nnfortnnate in being overtaken
by so many unlooked for accident« to the safe working
s plan. Congress will not meet again before De
cember to give us new laws for a readjustment of the
currency . Hence the prospect for the remainder of the
year is not a very flattering one. Here is a ve r y s i m pl e
queetion—if money is worth nn eighth and a quarter per
cent. in June what W ill it bs worth in September and
October* '
The bank statement presented on Saturday - wa, cer
tainly not a favorable one. but the street had been led
to look for such a very bad one that It appeared favor
able by contrast. There is a decrease of nearly two and
a half millions in legal tenders and a trifling gain in
specie. The loans have been contracted about four 'mil
lions, showing the effect of the heavy ••drop' in stocks
during the week and the efforts of
the banks to place themselves on' a
more conservative footing. The deposits have fallen
off over e 5.020,000 and the circulation increased
8160"0. The loss In legal tenders represents the pay
ments into the Sub-Treasury for the gold sold by the

Improved Tone 'of the Railway Market
(Special ttespatch to the Phila.,Eve. Bulletin.l
NEw Yowl., June lA—The money market at
the opening was unsettled, with a tendency
towards a stringency. Seven per cent. coin
was the general rate on call, but later the mar
ket was easier, and 7 per cent. currency was
the rate. Prime discounts are dull at 8 to 10
per cent
I _The Government bond market is firm, and
advanced /aI per cent., with an improved de-
Mand. The gold market was dull and steady,
opening at 139/ and advaneingto 1391. Loans
were made at 7 to 8 per cent. for carrying.
The Foreign exchange market is still quoted
at 91a91 for prime sterling 60 days, and 10/ for
sight. Commercial bills continue scarce.
The railway speculation was quite tam* at
the opening, and there was a pressure to sell
in conseqpence of the unsettled feeling . in re
gard to money, - which carried down prices to
about 1 per cent. from the closing quotations
of Saturday. After meridian there was a,
firmer tone to the market and a general im
provement, owing in part to the increased ease
in money. The sudden and sharp rise in
Pacific Mail undoubtedly had considerable in
fluence in turning the 'course ' of the market
from depression to firmness. New York Cen

centred in Pacific Mail, which opened at

TIIE ALABA_MA CLAIMS
That Speeth of Governor Curtin's
WHY HE FAILED TO MAKE IT
The Cabinet Pressure too Strong
Pacific Coast Ripe for the Sumner Policy
Enlisted Men in the Departments
The Alalbanika Question.
[ Special Despatch to the Phila. Evening Bulletin.]
WAsnmoroar, June 14.,—The absence of
any allusion in Minister Curtin's address to
the Alabama claims question at the banquet
given him on Saturday last in Philadelphia;
occasioned some surprise here in political
circles, it being pretty generally understood
that he would, on this •occasion, discuss
very fully our relations with England, and ex
press his warm approval of a scheme to make
our differences with that nation_ a party issue
in the coming elections. The substance of what
Mr. Curtin would say had been talked over
between himself, Mr. Sumner and other politi
cal friends here, and Count Bodisco, the Rus
sian Charge d' Affaires,was also informed sev
eral days ago of the course Mr. Curtin would
pursue. It seems, however, that the propriety
of an American Minister to one of the first
nations of Europe clikussing and express
ing views which might be in di
rect variance with the policy of the
administration,was talked over between certain
Cabinet. Ministers, and they came to the con
clasion that it was not only impolitic but in
bad taste. Secretary Fish then, it is said upon
trustworthy authority, requested Governor
Curtin to so modify his address as not to dis
cuss the Alabama Claims question, which the
latter very reluctantly consented to do.
Letters received here from the Pacific.
States, from prominent citizens, say that
making our differences with England a party
issue would be very popular among all classes,
inasmuch as it would create such a public
opinion as to prevent General Grant from
making any concessions to England in future
negotiations.
Enlisted Men in the Departments
(Special Despatch to the Phila. Evening. Bulletin .1
WASHINGTON, June 1.1..-The order issued
from the War Department directing the dis
charge of all enlisted men now employed. as
clerks in the variOUS bureaus has been revoked,
so far as it applied to several of the bureaus,
where nearly every clerk employed is an en
listed man. It was found that if the order was
carried out the public service would likely
stiffer, as new clerks not familiar with the
Office duties would have to be employed.
Senators Sumner and Nye leave for the East
to-night.
