- The cases in history are rare in which am
bitions rulers have adapted their policy to their
advancing years. Scarcely any despot has ever
fully understood that he could hot transmit liis
authority, at his death, to a son or a daughter,
ora widow or a regent, or to some nominated
successor. The case of Philip and Alexander,
of Macedoni a fhe t one signal exception that
proves this rule. I _ '•'
It is hardly to be expected that another ex
ception to the mle would be found in the case
of Napoleon 111, of Prance, and his son; the
father being over three score years, and the
son only thirteen and without much physical
or mental vigor. The father evidently sees
that heretofore he has been the State; that if he
were to die now, there is no guaranty that
his widow dr his son would retain the respect
which he has been able, to command for them.
Naturally lie wishes secure'their futurd ‘liapi
piness and safety, and like a sensible man, he
finds that these can only he secured through
tfae people of France and their representatives.
•So he has inade concessions of an extraordinary
nature to the newly-elected deputies, of whom
so large a number are known to be strongly
opposed to imperialism. To he sure, the re
fomis offered seem rather insignificant to
American Republicans, and they are far from
satisfying the most liberal Frenchmen, some of
whom, moreover, complain that they are of
fered grudgingly, and under tlie pressure of a
necessity that the Emperor could not resist.
But nearly all reasonable men ‘ regard them as
the substantial beginning of a policy that is to
make the Empire a liberal constitutional gov
ernineritj with a responsible ministry, and with
a Legislature, that is to have a full share in the
work of governing. " -
After the recent elections and the , attitude
assumed hylhefonniditblemindrity among the
Deputies, the Emperor must have seen that at
a day not remote he must-be prepared to meet
a great emergency which .would resolve itsef
into the ; alternatives of reform'or revolution.
He at once set about consulting with the lead
ing deputies of all shades df opinion, including
the most ultra radicals,-with the intention of
anticipating any severe pressure that might be
brought to bear on him in the course of the
session, result has been seen in the mes
sage recently published’proposing .various
measures of reform. If these are not enough
to satisfy aU France, it must be‘.admitted that
they'are very good for a beginning. If
honestly carried out, they are goingto diminish
the personal authority of the Emperor, though
his dignitywill remain unimpaired. The power,
he lays down goes; to . the; Legislature, .which
thus becomes an authoritative part of the gov
ernment, which it never has been since the
coup d’etat. -- -
Much of the.eredit. of- the reforms in France

tion among the deputies, called the Tiers parti
These are liberal men, of various shades of
opinion. Most of the opposition and a few of
the imperialists are in the new party, and the
arrangement agreed upon between them and
the Emperor is what would be called in Ame
rican politics “ a compromise.” The variety of
the different kinds of partisanship among.the
deputies made it impossible to harmonize upon
the plan of any one set. For between the im
perialist Bonapartists and the radical demo
crats, there are Bourbonists, Orleanists, mode
rate republicans and various other sets. Now
that the plan of reform is determined on, there
is a new set that is called “ irreconcilables,”
who are determined not to ho satisfied with the
Emperor’s concessions.
There is, indeed, one concession that must
made, before any of the others can be con- *
sidered valuable or secure. The press of
France must be made free. There are more,
men of brains, of political knowledge, of cul
ture, of wit and of cleverness of all kinds, en- 1
gaged on the newspapers of Paris, than are to *
be found in any other part of the world. But
they are hampered by the government censor
ship, and plain, honest writing in reference to
the Emperor or his policy cannot be printed.
A warning, or a suppression, or an imprison
ment at Ste. Pelagie is sura to be the conse
quence.' The emancipation of the Legislature
must be followed by the emancipation of the
press of France. The reforms promised de
prive the dangerous portion of the press of
most of their material for making war on the
Empire, and even men like Rochefort would
be comparatively harmless under a liberal
government wisely administered. Except in
time'of war or rebellion, or when decency and
morality are outraged, no government, in this
period of the world’s history, can, ever safely
interfere with the public press. Eonis Napoleon
has strengthened; himself and . the chances of
his dynasty, by oflering liberal terms to the
Legislature. He can acquire still greater
by making liberal concessions to tlie
press. These would make friends of a splendid
body of intellectual men who consider him
tdieir natural enemy; and when the newspapers

Emperor has made a pretty good beginning on" '
the road of reform; but it cannot be called a I
veiyi good -beginning, until: the press is

of this Commonwealth took up the
high ffiuy \vhich tlie 'refaetite'd ’pledges iof her
noble WaFGdveraor;'bad 1 ' imposed'upon her,
and organized the Department ofSoldieni’
Orphans. Our special correspondence from
Gassyille, yesterday, portrayed some of the diffl
’ cnlties'fenconntered and some of the results
achieved In-this work of- siinpie justice to - ottr
deadsoldiers. 5 ? - '■ ’ '
but steadily, Pennsylvania’s war
monument has risen in the eyes of the people,
until the couifary, at large is beginning to be at
tracted by. its beautiful success, ahdtb be im
pressed with the lesson which it teafches to
Pennsylvania's sister States. It is beginning
to be felt that this old Commonwealth, as she
has gatlieifedher thousands bf orphaned hoys
and girls within her protecting arms, and nur
tured and educated, them for. lives of future
usefulness to'!.the State, is only discharging a
simple duty that is.common to every-loyal
Stale of the Dnion. And it is also seen that,’
as with' the .discharge of every ditty, a reward
goes with it, and that Pennsylvania is enrich
ing herself by training -up thousands of men
and women, schooled in habits of honest in
dustry; and grounded in principles of patriotism
' iuul virtue. :
In Ohio, a movement has been inaugurated,
which promises to place that State right in this
. sacred duty. The Grand Army of the Repub
lic.of the Department of Ohio lias taken up the
subject of the soldiers’ orphans, in a 1 way 1 that
will arouse public attention to this neglected
act,of justice,, and probably stimulate the peo
! pie of Ohio to compel a permanent State pro
vision for tire soldiers’s orphans on the Penn
sylvania systemSS--, • -
- Ohio has,.to-day, over two thousand sol
; diers’rorplians, heeding the support and protec
tion of the State. Many! of these 1 children are
-reported as being in extremely destitute cir
cumstances, classed among the paupers of the
State j and suffering all the evils of the worst
neglect. What has become of the laj'ge num
ber who have outgrown the period of pupilage,
since the close of the.war, under these circum
stances of cruel neglect, may readily be
imagined. . That Ohio has suffered more loss
; by. their neglect than she would have incurred
; by their proper education cannot be doubted.
The Semi-Annual Convention of the Grand
Army of the Republic, last week, took action
upon this subject, and resolved that tills repu
diated debt should be paid. General Keifer,
Department Commander,. in his annual re
! port, says: “ The debt that is due these de
; pendent orphans for the services and -sacrifices
of their heroic fathers- should ever, be kept
! above and oyer all other considerations. It is
in payment of this debt that these little ones
now have a right to hold up their feeblefaailds
and cry for its redemption, and that justice may
be done by feeding, clothing and educating
them.” The Convention followed up this
; declaration, by creating a Board of Control of
.[the Soldiers’ Orphans’; Home, and providing
; for the care and education of these/ neglected
little ones, to the extent of its ability. ’ Still
further, the Convention made this important
pledge,: “ Besolved, That we, the surviving
soldiers of the old Union army, will not vote
for any man for either house of om\ State
! : Legislature who will not first pledge himself to
[ make an effort to have the State do justice to
I our dead comrades by either introducing or
voting for, if necessary, an appropriation for
! the erection and maintenance in our State Of a
i home or homes,for the orphans of soldiers.” '
j This is a practical movement in the right
| direction. It is the solemn duty of every State
j whose sons gave themselves so freely for the
[ preservation of the Union, to make such a per
manent and generous provision for their Chil
dren as Pennsylvania has done, and it should,
be made a test, question with every Legislature,
; as the Grand Army of the Republic proposes to
~ do in Ohio. The duty rests with the State, hot
, with any organization within the State. It
can only be half-done now, for about half of
the children have grown beyond the reach of
State support. But slow justice is vastly better
than no justice at ail, and the perfect success of
tlie system in Pennsylvania calls urgently upon
the other States to go and do likewise, , ;
FAIKMOUNT PARK.
; The Twelfth Annual Report of the Central
Park of New York contains many items of in
terest to us, in view of the progress now being
made in the opening of Fainjiount Park.
| N#w York has spent '510,463,065'83 during
the last twelve year? iu tlfo purchase and im
* provement of Central Park, and it has spent
no money-during the. same time to better ad
vantage. Since the; commencement, of the
Park the increase in value of the property in
, the surrounding wards is estimated at more
than ninety , millions of dollars. What tlie
business and social ■ advantages of Central Park
have been and are to New York cannot be;
computed; but the fact that 7,080,798 persons
visited it during the last year is enough to show
the immense importance which the people at
•large attach to these pleasure-grounds. It
proves that the ten millions that have been ex
pended are returning very large dividends, not
oidy in tlie health and comfort and pleasure of ;
the people, but in the direct, ; expenditure in
New Yorkof avory large amount of money by
'strangers who arc 'tempted to prolong their; so-!
joum by the attractions of tlie Park.
A noticeable fact is the exceUeiit:gobd order
preserved by these millions of visitors. In 1808,
one hundred and six arrests were made, more'
than half of .which were for immoderate
driving; and this small number is al decreasing
one, being twenty-one less than that for 1807.
During the year the Commissioners have
planted six thousand eight hundred and seventy
six evergreen and deciduous trees, beside six
thousand one hundred and ninety-two bulbous
and herbaceous plants, while they have received
large accessions to the greenhouses, the museum
and the Art Gallery, principally in donations
from private citizens.'
! • These'details' are -all ihteresing to
, phia, as furnishing practical suggestions as tB*
: tlie future of FairmOnnt Park! They serve to
j indicate something of-the future of our own .

natural advantages, so far surpasses the beauti-

The celebration of the completion of the
French cable at Duxlitiry was simultaneous witli
tlie anniversary of the completion of tlie cable
•of 1806, and the -coincidence may be con
sidered auspicious among people who have
faith in omens, or a fancy for them. It is not
quite so auspicious an omen, that on the same
1 day news came of “a fault” -in the: cable of
1866, the location of which has beqn fixed at
[ about one hundred and thirty miles from
, Valentia. Tills cable will have .to be fished up,
[and repaired; but with the Great Eastern
already back in British waters, there need be
no difficulty or delay in doing the work. !
Fortunately the old cable, which had been
for years in the ocean, and was grappled for
successfully in 1866, and carried to Newfound
land, works admirably—better,' it is said, than
the newer one of 1866 has ever .worked. In
addition, we have now the French cable
! finished and about to begin work'. - The tem
porary damage to either of. the-other cables
cannot, therefore, lie considered as a serious
misfortune. • 1 . ;
Tlie stretching of te'egraphic cables across
vast oceans lias now become a business of com
parative security and facility, and the Great
Eastern, which seems to have been created,
although unwittingly, for the business, ought
[ to have at least-one job of the kind on the Afc-
I lantic every, year. The lines now existing be
[ long to Englishmen and Frenchmen, and they
- will pocket all the profits. The messages must
undergo Englisliand French supervision, which,
in certain political emergencies such as often
arise! may turn out tq be very disadvantageous
!to our government and-pepple. A new cable,
constructed and laid with American money, is
[ imperatively needed. -It should land in
Portugal, or in Spain, or in Germany—in any
- country, in fact, but Great Britain or France,
and it - should be .carried direct from the
- European coast to the coast of the United
I States. Money cannot he wanting for such an
undertaking, and-its success and ultimate profit
: are so much more sure than those of the many
“ wilcrprojects into WbJclr ~Aiiieriean capital is
put, that it will be a wonder if a new cable
company is jiot immediately organized among
! our men of wealth.. • ■
There need be no fear of having too many
transatlantic cables for. the business to b*
transacted, between the two continents. This
business must constantly increase with the
growth of population in this country and the
general increase of commerce and travel. After
tlie cables are laid, the expense of the ocean
cables is insignificant. Only twice in three
years has there been a necessity for -re
pairing the English cables, and beyond
that there has been no outlay except
for maintaining the offices in Ireland
;and Newfoundland, so that nearly all the re
ceipts have been clear profit. Every reduction
of the tolls lias led to an increase of business,
and if a half a dozen cables were laid, the com- ’
petition would lead to such reductions of tolls
as would induce ten men to use tlie cables
where one uses them how. By all means let ,
us have a cable of our own, built with Ameri
can money, and leading to the territory of
'some nation on the continent of Europe with
which we .have, never had a serious difficulty.
There are one hundred and eight.y-tliree na
tives of Delaware in the Eastern Penitentiary
of Pennsylvania. A Wilmington paper says:
■“Besides the State in which the prison is sit
uated, only three others, all bordering on it,
send so many. These are New York, which
has 485; New Jersey, 284, and Maryland, 203.!
‘Considering-that-New'Jersey is live times as
populous as Delaware,andChat it adjoins Penn
sylvania far more closely and on a long line, it
seeins to.us that the number, from this. State is
immensely disproportionate— certainly three 5
times as great, ail things considered, as that
from New Jersey. It is reasonable to con
clude tliat this is simply, one of tlie resultspro
duced by the convict jacket, ‘badge of crime’
system, which is designed to quarter Delaware
criminals, upon neighboring communities.”
Will not the Legislature of Pennsylvania adopt
some measures next w.inter to protect the State
from the fugitives from Delaware justice ? '
Mr. W. A. Galbraith, of Erie, it seems, has
declined the chairmanship of tlie Packer-
Persliing State Committee, and it is now stated
that it was understood that he would decline,
so as to let Hon. Samuel J. Randall into the
place. .Tins is a great victory for the Demo
cracy of the First District and especially of the
Fourth Ward. They will be sure to get a full
share of Mr. Packer’s, money.

Park will at once open to the people of Phila
delphia a resort of such surpassing loveliness
that they will be content to proceed slowly in
“painting their lily and gilding their fine gold.”
The .admirable behaviour of the myriad
visitors of Central Park sets to rest any appre
hensions that may have been entertained as to
the effects of throwing open the grand pleasure
grounds on the Schuylkill to tlie free rise of the
people. If rowdy New York only shows a
hundred arrests in seven million visitors, peace
able and orderly Philadelphia may be sure ef a
still lower percentage. The more frequented
the Park becomes, the more general will be the
public .sentiment in behalf of the preservation
of good order.

natural-advantages, but it has also the advan
tage of the .valuable experience of the Commis
sioners of Central Park. We shall never seek

The Case of G riffin, the Eaclneer—lie Is
Admitted to Ball.
Milpobd, Pike eoutity, Petina., July 27.
This case was called up yesterday, before
Judge Sharswood of the Supreme Court of
Pennsylvania, who Is at present staying here,
under a writ of habeas corpus, and upon an ap
plication to admit to bail. John Biddis, Esq.,
the District Attorney, represented the Com
monwealth, and Jpnn Nyce, Esq., the de
fendant. The attorney for the defendant , said 1 ,
that the parties who had designed bailing the
prisoner ,bad, at the last moment, declined,
and he was, therefore, unpreparedto offer any
other bail at present, but would now ask the
Court to fix the amount. This application was
resisted hy. the District Attorney, who was
willing, however, that the bail should now be
fixed at $lO,OOO, otherwise he would ask that
the case should be continued until to-morrow,
to enable Mr. Jessup, the Solicitor of the Erie
Company, to be present, as that company de
sired that the,case should he pushed with the
utmost rigor, and that the defendant : might be
signally punished, in . order to deter others
from similarly offending. After some further ;
proceedings Judge Sharswood adjourned the
case until to-day.
To-day tho case came up again before Judge
Sharswood and Judge Heller, an associate
- Judge of Pike 'county. William H. Jessup, -
Esq., Solicitor of the Erie Railroad Company,
was associated with the DLstrict-Attorney for
L the prosecution. Mr. Jessup insisted that bail
should be fixed in the sum ot $lO,OOO. He did
v" . not wish to be supposed oppressive,' but be
thought that hail should he required inau.
amount sufficient to secure the presence
of the. prisoner at the trial. The act
of Assembly which ' reached the offence
charged, indicted an imprisonment of not
exceeding five years; and a fine of not exceed
ing $5,000, and the . penalty in a bond was
generally double;, the amount , due, and there
fore, afforded a guide in this ease as to the *
amount of bail which sliould be given, as the
Commonwealth .had the power to semiup s an
indictment under the act.
Mr. Nyce, for the prisoner, stated that the
bail should not be so excessive os to prevent;
the prisoner from procuring it, and thereby
rendering him unable' to prepare his defence.
The act of Assembly had nothing to do with *
the case, as the present prosecution was not
under that act. Ho believed that if no bail
was required the prisoner would, notwithstand
ing, appear and stand his trial. He cited the ■
ease of Deckerf as analogous. The District-
Attorney said that the ease of Deckert was
not similar. There the defendant had volun
tarily surrendered himself and sought a trial.
The community believed him guiltless, and
tlie Grand Jury ignored the bill. In this case ’
the Company’s officers were obliged to go , in •
search or the prisoner. He insisted that bail
shouhhbe required in $lO,OOO. , -
Judge Sharswood said that- the offence with
wliich the prisoner is charged is very serious ;
in its nature. The frequent recurrence of ac
cidents upon railroads, accompanied with loss
of llfo, required that employes should be
taught that there is a law which will lay hold /
upon them, although there were circumstances
.in the prisoner’s .case which appeal tq our
sympathies. Yet from the return it appears
that when it was the prisoner's duty to be Upon
the side track, lie moved ills engine upon thc
main track, whereby many valuable lives were
sacrificed. If the prisoner, therefore, is.aper
son possessed or feeling, he, must already
have suffered; internally,, and will suffer
all his days from the conse
quences of his act. The hail required should
be sufficient to secure tho presence of the pri
soner, hut we are bound to look at tho circum
stances of his life, and wliiit would be a proper
amount in one case' would he oppressive in
another. ' We are also hound to regard the act’’
of Assembly, for tho Commonwealth may
choose to prosecute under it. We have con
cluded that bail in $6,000 is sufficient Is tho
prisoner prepared to give it? Mr, Nyce, in
hehalfoltheprisoner, replied that his.iriends
lived at a distance, and 'that if sufficient time
were allowed he thought the hail could he ob
tained. , The Court fixed the 4th of August as
the time for the hail to appear. ' ,
Singular Accident,, on ttae New Jersey
Xlntlroad. ■■',. ■ :
A remarkable accident occurred on the Slew
Jersey Raih-oad>at Newark last evening. It
was fortunately unattended with fatal: results,
"but the narrowness of the escape: from loss of
'life causes a horrible reilectioh on the danger v
that attend railroad traveling. In this
. there was no broken rail, no misplaced switch
no flaw, no curve; hut a -locomotive drawing

hour. - Aa'3the;locoihotivepass'ed,the,rsoutli,-
end of fhe depot, it turned upon the SWitch to
take thb left-haiid track. Thetrain came to a
sudden stop, and the engiab wasfound to be
off,the track; .with its frontagainst the.shed,
at,the distance of, ten or twelve feet,frpm the
track which the wheels had left Tho cars re-,

Wheels updn the ‘“{tog;” in passing .through
■which, had been thrdWn from the 1 traek.
But there was no sign of any: obstruction, and
there could .be found no defect in the wheels
by which the accident could have been caused.
It..Boemed to he one of those unaccountable
mishaps for which no person'could be blamed,
and which no precaution could prevent.
The spot at which the locomotive finally
stopped was about forty feet from, the point at
Which it jumped fhe track. It' was turned to
ward the right: Had it taken an opposite di
rection the results might have been disastrous,
for upon that side was a precipitate descent
toward the river. The hedge row-of buildings
which border .the, track .opposite, the .depot
stopshere, leaving an open declivity.' ,
Tlie trains following tiffs one andthose com
ing from 'Elizabeth could not pass the ob
structed spot for three hours after the accident
took place. Passengers ..were compelled to
walk, and baggage was transferred from one
depotto the other, and after two hours’delay
those who were detained were carried to their
destination upon trains made up on either
side.
Singular Accident, in Kentucky.
A Louisville telegram, of the 26th, says; A
letter from Princeton, Caldwell county, Ken-;
tucky, speaks of. a fearfril, accident winch oc
curred on the 20th. A man named Boots Crow
was hauling upon his wagon two immense
mill-stones, 'one of which weighed 2,850
pounds. 'While passing, along the - side of a
high bill, theheaviest -stone rolled from the
wagon and sped down the. .declivity with a
fearful velocity, crushing, small trees , and
shrubbery in its course. The house of a farmer
named Darnell was situated at the foot
of‘ the hill. The mill-stone went, crash
ing through a fence and into the
yard of the. farmer’s- house, where
were a number of bee-nives. In the yard
were playing a bevy of'children. The bee
hive) were upset; the bees In their confusion
lighted upon the children,isdnging 1 them in a
frightful manner.' The progress of the great
stone was not impeded in the least hy its col
lision witli the bee-hives; it went bounding
into a stock .pasture beyond the house. It
dashed through a herd of calves andhorses,
killing two of theformer and one of the latter
almost instantly. The children in the yard
had been completely covered- with the bees,
and each one was . stung by ,them- until their
persons were covered with white swellings.
One of them died a short time after the terri
ble occurrence, and two others are entirely
speechless and blind. They can hardly re
cover.- ■:
