THE WASHINGTON MO! There : are thousands of people in PhiladeK phia who remember the laying of the corner stone of the Washington Monument in Wash ington Square, on the 22d of February, 1833, There .was : a procession, and there was an oration, and there were other impressive cere monies when that Washington Monument was thus planted, and people talked with pleasant anticipations of the beautiful shaft that was to adorn the city, wliile it perpetuated the memory of the Father of his Country. :• - v More than a generation lias passed away. Thirty-six years have gone, and Philadelphia lias spread out into a great city. Its bounda ries have grown until they comprise the area of a whole county. > Its population has grown until it is fast approaching a million of living souls.'. Its buildings have grown until they largely outnumber the largest city on this. Co ntinent. Its enterprise, its wealth, its industries, its charities, its institutions of learning and science and art have all. grown, until Philadel phia has become great in all these regards. But its Washington Monument has not grown. It was planted in good soil. It was entrusted to a careful and safe guardianship. But the cor ner-stone, laid thirty-six years, sleeps like the grains of wheat in the closed hand of the Egyptian mummy, the promise of a future growth unfulfilled. We have one specimen of a Washington monument that began to grow too soou. The huge unfinished shaft at Washington stands, untouched for years past, a perpetual discredit to the American' people; a speaking sign of national neglect and ingratitude. And there it is likeiy to stand, until Congress in some spasm of patriotic liberality shall order its completion. Its corner-stone was laid twenty-one years <igo,. but the monument is yet in its minority. Fif teen years had been spent in collecting funds before the corner-stone was laid; but the cost had not been well counted, and at less than one-third of its designed height, the work was suspended, and for nearly ten years nothing has been done for its completion. But if the monument at Washington began to grow too soon, or was projected on a too colossal scale, our Washington ■ Monument cannot be charged with the same fault. The little fund which was collected forty yearn ago, amounting to less than seven thousand dollars, has been carefully nursed by the Trustees of the Society of the Cincinnati, until, by patience and good management, it has grown to more than ten times its original value, and is now re ported at $75,000. The investment, if It has not yet built a monument to Washington, has at least raised one to the wisdom and fidelity of the excellent gentlemen to whom it was so f'oi’- tunately committed. —This fund is a private one, and is held in private hands. The Society of the Cincinnati has the entire control of it, for the purpose for which it was contributed. But the Washing ton monument, to build which it was contrib uted, is not intended, to he a private monument; it is for the public, for the whole people of Philadelphia. And there is a renewed desire in the public mind, inspired by the recent erec ■ tion of the statue at Independence Hall, 'to have the monument, for which they have waited so long, commenced. A few days ago, while three gentlemen were admiring Bailly’s fine statue, one of them remarked that agreat many years ago, when he was much poorer than at present, he had given a flve-dollar gold piece to build a monument to Washington. He supposed the money had been spent by somebody, long ago, but he would gladly give five times that amount now, if he could see a proper monument built in Philadelphia. He was overheard by a citizen who was able to tell Slim that his money had been well invested and not spent; but| the little incident went to show the common feeling of the public mind, and we, therefore, most respect- fully press upon the trustees of the fund the suggestion that they make a beginning of their work. With the ill-fated example of the monument of Washington before us, we do not desire to see this fund wasted upon some huge, unattainable design; but no one can reasonably doubt, that with $70,000 hi hand, well invested, the Society of the Cincinnati would only be fulfilling, its original trust, if it would commence active operations for the ■erection of the monuiVient. The generation whose contributions lkid the foundation of the ■present fond has passed away, and one-fourth ■of rthe second generation is already gone. But the zeal of, the people to preserve the memory ■of Washington has not abated, while their abil ity;!© pay their tribute of gratitude has lately increased. We honor the growing impatience i©',see this,monument begun and finished.. It is,a goodsiguof the healthy tone of the publie mind, and there seems to be no good reason why it ifiiould not be gratified. The Cincinnati fund has reached a point when its accumulations have beoome very rapid, and in the next four years it will have reached-the neighborhood of $lOO,OOO, even if no additions from without are made to it. But let the people only be assured that the work is begun, and that it is to be speedily prosecuted and completed, and whatever deficiency there is in the fund wHI be supplied. There is another practical consideration which should have weight with., the managers of this fund. There is every probability that a more satisfactoiy and creditable monument will be erected with $lOO,OOO than with $200,- 000. : With the ■ larger sum, some huge, over grown design?"wouldr fn“ Idl' be .affeMßa-either occupy many years tiß.iti; jCohstriUctionz or 'would he. completed oiily). , to mark an era of grotesque extravagance, and?, baffiljd&e. It may be presumed tliat whehetei'i:'. the work is done) it will be committed to American ‘urtlsts: and workmen,, there are, on some accounts, better chances for -artisHb success; if the scale of the design is kept .within comparatively, moderate boiinds. The enormous design of .the;: monument at Wash ington has proved fatal. '' Its shaft 'of 600 feet in height; its colonnade of ‘thirty columns, forty-five feet high ; its colossal statue of Wash ington, 'thirty feet liigli, in a chariot with six horses; its elaborate statues and basso-relievos and other ornaments; were' too much for the ideas of a young nation, and even if Congress shall ever finish the work,, there can be no doubt that it will be done with essential modi fications of the huge original design of Mills. , This subject of the erection; of our long-de layed Washington Monument is so constantly recurring to the popular mind, , that we submit .to the trustees :of the fund the propriety of making some official statement to the public upon the subject. It can certainly, do no harm •either to the Society or to the fund, to inform the people what the prospect is of carrying out the design of those whose money was con tributed for this purpose, nearly forty years ago. Let us get the monument started. In the elo quent words of Mr. Wmthrop, laying the cor ner-stone of the monument at Washington: “Proceed, then, fellow-citizens, with the work, Build it to the skies: yon cannot outreach the loftiness of his principles! Found it upon the massive and eternal rock: you cannot make it more enduring than his fame! Construct it of the peerless Parian marble: you cannot make it purer than his life! Exhaust upon it the rides and principles of ancient and'modem •'art: you cannot make it more' proportionate than his character!” MBLIC RETRENCHMENT. The promises of Governmental retrench ment and reform with which the Grant Admin istration TflHt. into office are being fulfilled with a righrous faithfulness. Such promises are often and easily made' by all parties; they are invariable planks in all political plat forms ; hut they ordinarily belong to that order of promises which, like pie-crust, are made to be broken. Incoming administrations of all grades, from the National Government down to the village burgess, make spasmodic efforts at retrenchment and reform; but the work is ordinarily too lia/'d, and the temptations con trariwise are too pressing, and the honest meaning official, —if he really happens to be honest-meaning,—falls away irom liis high in tentions, and all things continue as they were from the beginning. But there is a vigorous reality about the re trenchments and reforms of President Grant’s administration which promises far better things for the country. There is a sturdy, inflexible purpose, infused already by the Executive into every department of the government, which is carrying on its purifying work with a diligent .thoroughness that is producing’ great results. Millions of dollars have already been taken from the public debt. A steady and continual reduction of the public expenses is running parallel with the steady increase of the public revenues. The leaks of the national reservoir are being stopped, and, at the same time, the supplies are being increased. And this is not merely the sweeping of new brooms; it is not merely a show of the fulfilment of a solemn premise. It is the settled principle and policy of'the government, and it is as wise as a policy as it is honest and patriotic as a principle, One of the most difficult departments of this work of retrenchment is in the reduction of the clerical forces of the various departments., During the war there was necessarily l a very large increase of force in all hranclies of the • civil as well as tlie military service,and although there were some reductions after the war, President Grant found a large excess of clerks, male and female, still engaged, beyond the re quirements of the public service. To reduce this number has involvedjmuch necessary hard ship. Men and women, many of them with families to support, and many of them un exceptionable in the discharge of their duties, have been found to he unnecessary for the public service, and yet it has been very hard to dismiss them. Personal appeals, often of a very touching character; the political pressure of friends, often of the most importunate and persevering nature, are brought to bear upon the heads of departments, in behalf of very deserving men and women, and it is almost impossible to realize the difficulty under which a kindly-disposed officer is placed, when called upon to meet and resist such appeals and such pressure. Tliat it has been done, and that the retrenchment has gone on in the face of the most stubborn resistance, is one of the best proofs of the honesty of the Admin istration. In carrying out this reduction of the civil service, there lias been a great point gained in efficiency as well as economy. The tares have been very thoroughly separated from the wheat ia' thlS' : sifting of the departments, and it will undoubtedly result in the establishment of a higher standard of efficiency and integrity than has ever yet been attained. The number from whom to choose has been so large, and the claims of each individual have been so strongly pressed, that it may fairly ’ be assumed that those who have been retained in the several departments comprise all the best elements of honesty, efficiency and respectability. BROAD AND KABBOW GAUGE. An extraordinary railroad exploit was per formed in Missouri on Sunday last. The whole track of the Missouri Pacific Railroad, three hundred and eight miles .long, was changed from the broad gauge to the narrow gauge, in the short space of sixteen hours. Tliirteen hundred and ,fifty men were employed to do this tremendous -job. A complete stock ■of forty-six new locomotives and three hun dred and fifty cars, suited to the new gauge, was in readiness, and the business of the road went on on Monday as if nothing had hap pened, There has been nothing to surpass the ; speed , with winch this undertaking was acdoniplisiied, in all the railroad history of the country. The broad gauge of five feet six inches was adopted when the Missouri Pacific Railroad was constructed, a few years ago, under the influehoe of certain Mew York railroad, men. For some time it has been found to be incon venient, more especially as the cars from tjie fond could hot run on the' Illinois railroads; EVENING jBtiLLEmN^PHILA! THE DAILY : which were of the narrow guage, like those of Pennsylvania. The new, gauge, adopted on •Suiidaylast, is four feet nine inches; and now the cars of the Pennsylvania ,• Bailroad Can -he. run all the way to Leavenworth,in Kansas, and also can be,run overthevariousbranch roads, ■ which'are to'be reduced in gauge as rapidly as possible. , .'• .i '. .. <? , The New York and Erie Bailroad’ was, we believe, the.first important road on ,’which the broad'gauge ; 'wis uiSed.' It lias proved to be the 1 most costly road to construct, 'stnA keep in ort . der in the whole United States. The repeated destructive accidents upon it are-, an ; all-suffi cient argument against the broad gauge, inde pendent of the ordinary expense of maintain ing the road. Many sliortroads in tl:e West have had their gauge narrowed of late years, but nothing has ever been done pn so grand a scale as this of the Missouri Pacific Bailroad. The time will come when every road in the • United States will have to conform to the new gauge. Many have done this partially by lay ing a third rail, so that cars of either gauge caff be used upon their tracks.' But eventually they willall have but two mils of - the -narrow gauge: f ; ’' -'' . , A tea-i*oT tempest. The Keform Club of London has had a ively little excitement on the subject of an American now in that capital. Mr. G, W. Smalley, correspondent of the New York Tri bune, had been j proposed for election 'to the club for a brief period, and was , black balled. Thereupon Mr. John Bright denounced the committee on the subject and demanded a re versal of their decision. This was refused, audit is said that Mi - . Bright and some of liis friends sent in ; their. resignations, but that they: were afterwards induced to withdraw them. There-is, howeyeiy a ; very bad feeling in the club. Tlie Tall Mall Gazette of July sth says: “A general meeting of the Keform Club has been called for the , 22d inst., with a view, we understand,'to revision'of the 'system of elec tion. Of course if any- difficulty or incon venience is experienced irt carrying out the present rules, there can be no reason why the members should not alter them in any way they please. As some of our contemporaries seem, however, to be studiously busy m their misrepresentations on the- subject, we may be permitted to remark that there: is the widest difference between making new rules and de nouncing a committee - for carrying out the rules it was expressly appointed to enforce. The self-respect and dignity of the club are clearly concerned in upholding the inde pendence of its own delegates. Either there is a constituted authority, or there is not. If there is, it ought to be supported. The proper course for Mr. Bright to nave taken if he deemed the authority of the committee excessive, or any of its rules improper, was to lay before the club a motion to that effect. Personal arrogance could hardly be carried further than in a demand that the committee should reverse a decision winch it had given in strict accordance with the duty imposed on it by the other members.. Apart from any personal objections to the American candidate for temporary membership, it seems to be undoubted that he was distinctly dis qualified for admission through hifj settled residence in this country. One of the propo sals to be submitted to the approaching meet ing is, we understand, that open shall be sub stituted fofsecret voting, and the ballot of the committee abolished.- It will be interesting to see how the reformers will vote on;the,ballot when brought home to themselves.” ' To reform tlie Keform Club would seem to be a task of supererogation, like painting the lily, &c. But if an American should be the means, directly or indirectly, of inducing such reform, it may be inferred that liberal ideas are advancing in Great Britain, and- that therefore the British Constitution is in danger. Looking over the list of county school su perintendents in Pennsylvania, published in yesterday’s Bulletin, the reader must have been struck with the absence of Philadelphia in the list. Every other county in the State has its superintendent of schools, and in addi tion, there are superintendents for the cities and boroughs of Allentown, Altoona, Clie ster, Easton, Erie, Harrisburg, Meadville, Pitts burgh, Pottsville, Scranton and Williamsport. The salaries of these officers range from $5OO up to $2,500 a year, Pittsburgh giving the latter sum, while Allegheny county gives $2,000 be sides. It it is an anomaly that this vast city of Philadelphia should have no one superintend ing officer for her numerous public schools. Such an officer, properly chosen, would be well worth a handsome salary. A jury composed of six white and six colored men has sat in Washington city on the trial of a colored woman charged with mur der. It is the first criminal case in the Dis trict Of Columbia before such a mixed jury. No difficulty of any kind seems to have oc curred, and in the short space of two minutes a verdict of “not guilty” was agreed upon. The experiment of jury trial before negroes having been thus successfully tried, and that of negroes as Congressmen and members of the Legislature being about to be tried by Virginia, it may safely be said that the world moves. But the Packer Democracy of Penn sylvania have pledged themselves to stop it at the next election. THE FINE ARTS. —The solid and well-earned reputation of Thomas Hill as a painter of American scenery does not rest alone upon his grand panoramar picture of the Yo-Semite Valley, which made such a sensation in Messrs. Earles’ last exhibi tion; his small paintings reveal the Bame con science, the same instinct of picturesque selec tion and arrangement, and the same clear, limpid style of painting. A moderately-sized example now at Earle’s Galleries is nearly as beautiful as the great work alluded to; it is another reminiscence of the lovely California stretch of the Russian River, with mountainous hanks rising on each side of the narrow plain it waters; these steep sides are leveled off at the.top in the plateau-form so characteristic of the region, except in the case of one distant peak, which comes in apropos to give an apex to the composition. A troop of does have sought "the water, under the protection of a brave buck, but otherwise the scene is a solitude—a Paradise waiting for its Adam. The tone of the shadowed portion at the right, and the quality of the basking light, are much to the artist’s credit. A new sea-heach scene by Wm. T. Richards, one of his mathematical analyses of wave curves, likewise adds to the attractions of tho Gallery. . —Haseltine contemplates some attractive changes in the decoration of his fine rooms-at 1125 Chestnut street. Belonging to an ar tistic family, and naturally possessed of it good measure of tho painter’s faculty, it is impossi ble for him to occupy an establishment with" out seeking to make a palace of it, or to ne glect his present opportunity of developing, large and well-proportioned spaces into did and pictorial effects.

Wednesday, July 21*1869.—1t is difficult to-<lay for borroworß to obtain needful funds at tlie bank counters, though, if inquiry is wade at the banks by one who is not a borrower, they will report money easy. It is tho some with brokers; It is their business to deal in money, and It Is therefore their interest to put tlieir own color upon the face of the market; but call on the bauks and represent your wants and you will soon find out that money 1b scarce and very dear. It will bo generally con ceded that the banks are not very extortionate in their charges for accommodation under the circumstances, 7 percent, being the average on call, but as most of tho bank funds are loaned to note borrowers, and afterward resold at 10and 12per cent., the rates are high enough in all conscience. This should not be, but it is, neverthe less, and there is no other remedy for the needy but to submit to it. Gold opened at 135,501 d down to 131?£, and is quoted at noon at 135.

Superintendent*!* Convention-.- Morning Session. (Special Despatch to the Phils. Evening Bulletin.] Habbisiivko, July 21.— The question of ex amlnatiou was discussed aud postponed until tho report of the Committee on Resolutions was made. The question of resolutions was debated at Jcngth, and various items in personal experi ence were recounted. Governor Geary was waited upon by a committee, and introduced by Superintendent Wickersham. The Governor said: ‘‘.Gentlemen of the Convention: ‘ I feel in deedwenr highly complimented in having the permission and privilege to meet with yon for a few minutes this morning, and to extend to yon a most hearty welcome to the capital of Pennsylvania. When I consider the business ' in which you, and I may say we, are all en gaged, I ieel that this is an auspicious meeting in the State of Pennsylvania. lam glad that this kind of meeting has been instituted, in order that there may be more unity of action in this Commonwealth in the cause of educa tion. When X think of the object Which is; before tis all as citizens of this State—the ltigh duty devolring upon all of us—l feel that we all have reason to look to a higher power for aid iu the noble Work in which we are engaged, and I trust that power will not desert us in preparing tho minds of our youths for a better enjoyment of our lib erties. X regard you all as members of a grand army. You, Mr. State Superintendent, as a great general; these as your staff’officers; the seventeen thousand teachers of the State your line officers, and the grand army itt the great contest between Intelligence and Ignorance, Vice and Immorality, are the children of tho State, numbering more than eight hundred thousand. [Applause.] If this army is handled as it can and should be, I anticipate; the most beneficial results in the cause op education. I feel that this meeting is one of intellect coming into contact with intellect, by which all should be encouraged and invigorated, for the contest, and that through such meetings, victory must perch upon our banners eventu ally. But we in this generation cannot hope to close the contest r “Perhaps, to the last day of the world, the contest between intelligence and ignorance, vice aiid immorality, will continue; but Jet us go on for the benefit of the children, who are the property of the Commonwealth. ■ Educa tion should not alone be intellectual; it shonld also be physical. Will our work amount to anything if we fill the mind with information without cultivating the muscle to put it into force? I see around me in everyday life, men of muscular strength, tall, straight and brawny. If intellectual men had such bodies what an advantage it would be! Do hot, then, forget the physical culture ofthe school children. It is incumbent upon us to make a vigorous, hardy, strong race of men. [Applause.] We should |huila upon a physical foundation as well' as.upon an educational one. The ques tion may arise—How are we to accomplish this? I reply, give your seholars daily mili tary drill and other kinds of exercise, and you will make them much better men. “Ihaveaword of kindness for you thismorn ing. I have been a teacher in my life; I know how meanly they are paid, and how hard they are fagged. Let ns elevate the whole system, pay our teachers better, and thus obtain the highest order of talent. [Applause.] Give us the best men yon can, and make the position of teacher one of the most honored in the State, I took occasion to refer to this subject in my last annnal message to the Legislature. If teachers were paid better wages, better care would be taken of our children. I feel tjiat- a S'e so prosperous can afford to nay their era well. tVe have done a noTtle work in the education and maintainance of the soldiers’ orphans. We all appreciate this great cause. [Applause.]. This work will he car ried out faithfully, but in five or six years, at most, the greater portion of that work will have beep performed. I feel, then, that we can appropriate a. million more dollars to your object. If we should lose all else, we have in our country, and still have, an edu cated people. We will have a wall around our liberties, and on our ramparts we may say, ‘Victory! Victory!.’ With our flag naned to the mast, let us tell] the whole world that with an educated people we can face any storm. Let us nail the banner of education, whichjts synonymous with our flag, to our masthead,' and the ship of State will never go down. Let us have no cause to blush for any action of ours in connection with the great and ever lasting cause of education.” [Cheers.] Tlie thanksofthe Convention were tendered to the Governor. Tlie Governor then gave a reception during a recess of ten minutes, and the Superinten dents were individually introduced. The Convention adjourned till 2 o’clock. Grcnt Councilof the Red Men.

BY TELEGRAPH.’ LATER FROM WASHINGTON THE MISSISSIPPI ELECTION THE PENT MOVEMENT A FAILURE A Decision by Sec. Boutwell From Washington. { Special Dcroatch to thcJPJbHoda. Evonlne Bullotln.] THE MISSISSIPPI EJECTION. . Washington, July 21.—Additionalinforma tion received lrom Mississippi this afternoon is to the effect that tlie; movement to nominate Judge Dent as a conservative Republican can didate for Governor is likely to fail from want of support from the members of the Republi can party. Thus far only eleven Republicans ol even local prominence have indicated their intention to support l it, and they make it conditional upon the ticket receiving the approval of President Grant and his Cabinet. As this is not likely to be the case, the movement will, in all probability, result in complete failure, or join hands with the Democracy. THE WEATHER IN WASHINGTON". The weather continues cool but pleasant. I CorreßDOndonco of the Associated Press.l Washington, July 21.—The following de cisions have recently been made by Secretary Boutwell: , .: Treasury Department, July 14,1869. deathmen: lam in receipt of your letter of the 23d ult., complaining of the action of the Col lector of Cnstoms|at New York, in assessing a duty of 45 per cent, ad valorem in six cases of stamped brass goods, imported by you per steamer Bremen In May last. The duty in question, it appears, was assessed under the act of February; 24,1869, which provides, that all manufactures of copper, or of which cop per shall be a component of chief value,other wise provided for, shall be subject to a duty of 45 per cent, ml valorem. And the Collector having decided that in all articles made Of the composition usually known as brass-copper is the component of chief value, the goods im ported by you were subject to duty under said act. I have reason for believing that the posi tion taken'by the Collector is correct in re gard to the materials of which brass is composed, and as the law in ques tion includes all articles of which copper is the component of chief value, his action in assessing Said duty was correct. The fact that brass and ■ many other articles of which copper forms the principal part have other distinctive names, and are never known as manufactures of copper in the commercial world, cannot be deemed to ailect the ques tion under the very comprehensive language of the act referred to. I am very respectfully, ' George S. Boutweeu, Secretary of the Treasury. To Messrs. Fisher & Kitterhaus, New York. Treasury Department, July 19.-- -Sir: Your letter of the 9th ult. is. received, submit ting the appeal—s6,69l—of Messrs.. Julius Echoman & Co. from your decision assessing duty at the rate of 45 per cent., ad valorem , On certain duty metal and bronze powders im ported into your port per “Main,” June Ist last, as manufacturers of which copper is the component of chief value, under the act of February 24,1869. From yOur report it ap pears that the appraiser returned the Dutch metals as copper, chief value 45 per cent., and the bronze powders as manufactured from a species' of brass known as Dutch metal, 20 per cent., andjthat deeming the return of the latter erroneous, you assessed duty thereon at 45 per cent. The Appraiser, in his report, states that in his opinion copper is not the component of chief value in articles made from Dutch metal,basing this opinion on the assertion that a new metal is formed by the union of copper and tin in the Dutch, al though, at the same time, he reports Dutch metal as a manufacture of which copper is the .■ component of chief value, : thus restricting the operation of the law to articles manufactured in whole or in part of the metal copper, and alloys composed in part of that metal, while articles manufactured of such alloys, even where copper is the com ponent of chief value, would be liable to duty under previous acts. The language of the act of February 24, 1869; is very comprehensive, and, in the opinion of this department, em braces every manufacture of which copper is the component of chief value, whether the copper . be the •: simple metal or in the form of an alloy or combination, chemical or otherwise, with any other article or arti cles. Itis the duty of the appraiser to deter mine the facts in each case. This decision is confirmatory of the Department’s decision of the 14th inst. Your decision is hereby con-, firmed. : Very respectfully, George S. Boutwedd, Secretary of the Treasury. To M. H. Grinnell, Esq., Collector, New York. Lieutenant Commander B. S. McCook, is ordered to the receiving-ship New Hampshire, at Norfolk. , Commander James M. "Watson is detached from duty as Light-house Inspector at Astoria, Oregon, and placed on Waiting orders.
