;,season alter season warns. the people of
Philadelphia of the necessity of increasing the
supply of water for the city, ,and season after
season passes without anything being done to
avert the calamity which will some day befall
no from a total failure of supply. The intro
duction of the tmhinea at Fairmount ,has
effected a great saving, bithe large diminution
of.power required for ' pumping, but, with this
exception, nothing is done to husband the re
sources of the Schuylkill and so to "guard
against the inconvenience, foss "and positive
snffering whic,h must result from the stoppage
.f ,`the water supply. When 'the city has had
one thop?ugh lesson on the subject, it will wake
up to the urgent neePs4ity of action.
Two thino must be dorm, sooner or later.
Fairmount Dam must be raised one or two
feet During nine or ten months of the year,
*early as much water passes over the dam as
is used at the Water Works. Every drop of
this water , wilt soon . be needed for the use - of
our people,'and whatever the privileges of the
Schnylkill Navigation Company niay be,' the
.public necessities are of such Paramount im
portance as ` to to justify whatever arrangement
with that corporation may be,requiied for the
purpose Of saving the great body• of water lie.w
allowedto Pass unused over the dam.
But even this expedient will not wholly meet
the requirementS of the case. Whenever the
Ayer is unusually high,, there will be of course,
a great waste of water, even with the proposed
•elevation of the dam, and this waste must be
prevented by the construction of "feeders," on
the several tributaries of the Schuylkill, settling
ponds, which can be easily and cheaply built,
capable of containing a large supply of water
for the city in dry weather. Our New Eng
,land brethren. understand this principle of
utilizing the waste water 'of their rivers; and
the supply of many of their streams is doubled
' , by the judicious use of feeders.
'With proper engineering, we believe that
the Schuylkill will, be adequate to supply the
wants of Philadelphia for generations to come;
but with our present neglect of the proper
means, we are frequently, as at this time, re
duced •to a dangeronsly low Point of supply.
The piesent season, though a very dry one, is
not' so remarkably so as to present this import
ant subject in any new light. • The need has
often been severely felt before now, but past
warnings have not yet stirred up the authorities
- or the people of Philadelphia sufficiently to in
duce them to make any practical move toward
securing - us from the misery and loss of a
Water fainine. The late diSastrOus conflagra
tion in Front street only failed to teach
the needed lesson, , because its locality
happened to be one which enabled
the fire-engines to draw their principal sup
plies from the Delaware. Such a lire' in any
• other locality would have exhausted the'`hashis
.at .Fairmount and left Philadelphia, the next'
'day, with all its industrial estahlishments'and
its hundred thousand_fandlies_without- a - drop
•of water. We trust that the lesson wilt be
learned, without any such disastrous demon
stration, and that, if the authbrities are doing
anything to increase the efficiency of the
. Schuylkill's supplies, they will move more
vigorously, and if they are hot doing anything,
'that they will lose no thne in getting to work
(eantime, We repeat ow, caution to all
classes-of-citizens to be - - very - abstemions in
their use of water. An enormous waste goes
• on ; daily, all over the city,' both in private
houses andinpublic:and in_businessAstablish
!meats; and this waste should everywhere be
checked. We do not like to add• anything to
the onerous requirements of worthy Master
- Mulholland's Police Manual, but we venture
to,suggest that that it might be temporarily ex
tended to the subjec of pavement-washing arid
street-sprinkling, with, • beneficial effect. In
Whatever ways housekeepers and manufac
turers can economize water we trust that, for
their own sakes and the sakes of their neigh
bors, they will endeavor to do so.
AN :ALLEGED CASE •OF TREACHERY
The Cubans tell a story of Spanish treachery
and falsehood, which needs but to be subStan
tiated to Ming upon Prim, SeiTano and their
Colleagues the scorn and content of every
honest man in the . civilized world. It is said
.that some of the exiled Spanish generals, pre-
vious to the overthrow of Isabella, liehrinter
-views with the Cuban Republican Junta, and
,laying before them the whole plan of the
.coming revolution, asked them what they
,would do to aidthe cause. After several con-
,ferences the pubans agreed to pay the revolu
4lonary expenses incurred an the district of
teadiz, providerl that Cuba,,inlthe event of .the
success . ' of the rebellion, should be released
.front her_.allegi2nce to.,Spain.__ This_ offer-was
.accepted, and the Cubans contzibitted $500,000
in Win tO help the rerohrtionists. But when
;the .latter had :accomplished their: object, they
(failed to..perform...their promisee.; and = this
treachery was the 6nspiration uf the present
Insurrection.
.I.Zaw.,.thi.s story:mai not be true. It may be
.only.an ingenious falwhood devised to excite

from `the beiin t ,by tlu)Provisional govern:

truthfulness to the story. ' if Prim and his fel
lows really were in eli.l7tiest.,:,ini ) ,their 'desire to
'secure Universal . freedom for the'Spanish people,
and they were ,untr a mmeled' by any contral
'bligations; the 'natural and ineviable thing
for them to do, vAinki have,. been 'to .haVre
abrogated the pppressive laws with which Ciiha
was, ;nursed,,+, to . , have giv i tn to the
people of tat island '
—Cubans Is well as
Spanianls, the e same liberal 'reforms Which' Were
extended to the nation at home. ..But this was
not Aione. For many months after Isabella's
dethroneinent,lGeneral Lersundi continued to
exercise his old despotic poWer with even more
severity than before; and, , although Dulce made
appearance of liberality upon' ; Arrival,
hesoon made his rule as hateful as that of , his
_predecessor. Tins nnist have been done in
accortitmce with' instructions from the home
government; it could not have been' attempted
otherviise; With safety. And ,if Prim,
and Serrano, and Topete commanded
this tyranny, they did' it because they kneW
that the Cubans were organized for revolution;
that therexpected fiilfihnent of the promises
made to them, and that any attempt at
treachery would be followed by a general in
surrection. The'rebe,l leaders in Spain dared
not let the island go. Such an act would have
ruined their popularity with the people and de
stroyed all their. hopes Of personal preferment.
So they forswore themselves, and gaye the
screws a tighter turn, hoping „to hold the
Cubans hy a violent exercise of power.
The inauguration of that policy,Whatever
its motive, 'was base, ungenerous; and in entire
opposition - to professions of love for
liberty, sillinldh4:People will be likely toae
cep,t the Cuban story of their treachery as the
truthful' statement of the case, and, until it is
successfully denied, it will be' believed to the
discredit of the Spanish leaders, and urged as
another reason for the extension of public
sympathy in this country to the, valiant men
who are struggling in Cuba against fearful odds
for freedom.
"BRITISH FAIR PLAY."
---We'are . beginning to have very great doubts
of the intentionnf Englishmen to permit a fair
race 'between the Harvard and Oxford crews.
The old phrage about "British love of fair
play" has been used in this country for years
only in. an ironical sense. No such thing ex.,
Tlie English pe'Ople believe that they can
beat the world at any game of politics, war or
athleticism, and • they never permit themselves
to be disappointed if brute force or fraud will
Wrench victory from the jaws, of defeat. In
this particular case it would seem that courtesy
and decency require that Englishmen should
sacrifice anything to give to their visitors 'the
most favorable opportunities to row the race
without molestation or obstruction. But the
English papers already speak' as if they regarded
a contrary condition of, things as possible. They
express, hopes that, there will be no obstacles
thrdtvn in the waynf the Harvard men; that
• the course will be kept clear; that the crowd
may not beeorne . unmanageable in its demon
strations in favor of the Oxford men.. But
such possible villainy 'is not deprecated as it
would be here, • These kindly aspirations read
rather as suggestions to the mob to be acted
upon in case victory for the Harvards seems
probable during the race. For 'there need be
no foul play - if the - press And the officials who
have control of the course determine that there
shall be none.. 'lt is possible to keep the river
clear, to prevent ° stoppages, and to have truly
impartial men for judgeS. If there is 'any
rascality it will not be accidental but pre
meditated.
The English papers contribute in another
way to the fort:nation - of public:opinion against
the Harvard crew. It ill becopies a hoStto
in harsh criticism of'his guests, butsome
of the comments that have been made upon
the Harvard men; have - been ungenerous and
severe.:-Fault-has—been found-with - their per=
sonal yuPptiarance, with their methods,, and
with their boats, while the immense superiority
of the English system of rowing, of the English
beat nidels,atl of the Oxford crew has been
/continually commented upon, accompa
nied by-such ill-concealed exultation over the
;anticipated Oxford victory, that it is a wonder
that the Americans are not
.already a little.
disheartened and disgusted. We do not
ourselves believe that- they will be permitted
to, win- If they display any superiority upon
the day of the race, there will be "a foul" of
some kind to keep them from the honors.
Then, as in the Sayers-Heemin prize tight, there
will be a decision in favor of the Hiltons, and
the contest will expend itself in a wordy squab
ble in the sewspapem. lf thiS should be *the .
case, we hope this will be the last attempt made
to have an international contest upon English
soil or water. If any."blasted Britisher" desires
to try his skill, let him come to this country.
Here we will trek him with such courtesy that
we will ratherlncline to hirathafi to hisAuferi
can opponent, and It will be seen to that theie
is fair play for both. . , •, •
RAMSEESS FRENCH MISSION.
In the absence ,of anything like, a'decent ex
-case-for-attacking- President - rGrant's --- adminis:
tration the Democratic paper ` h3Ve charged
Postmaster-General Creswell with having,
"sent Senator Rainsey to Paris, tt an expense
of $lO,OOO, to negotiate a postal treatk,'? While
we have a Minister there who is paid $17,500
per annum. It is claimed that Mr. Creswell
gave Mr. Ramsey , this enmunission because "a
Radical Senator wanted a pleasure trip" free of
cost.
A lie: which is hialf the truth is ever the
worst of lies. The whole truth about this
business is as follows; The existing postal
treaty between this country and France will
cease to be operative on the let of next Janu,.
toy.. An efS.:irt has been made during. the
past two years to negotiate a better treaty, re

Governor Hainan, has . not hiterfered a, day
too soon, in taking posseision of 41 , 9 Albany
and Susquehanna Railroad ' . The outrageous
proceedings of the Fisk ring, by which the
violent seizure of this road has been attempted,
in themarrie of .the Erie Railroad, htiVe culmi
nated in open and serious' conflict, and the
authorities have very properly stepped in
to quell this riot and to enforce the peace of
the State. .
• The extraordinary spectacle was presented
of a battle fought with locomotives and trains
of .cars loaded with belligerents. These trains
were driven into each ahoy and after a; severe
collision, a fierce hand-to-hand' fight raged be
tween the contending fortes,; in Which instals,
,clubs, stones and fiats' were freely used,, until
the arrival of the military on the ground put
an end to the conflict. • .
This railroad war Will now be fought out in
the courts, each - intereet : using its favorite
Judges to thwart and over-rule each other's
decisions, until the dispute.reaches the Supreme
Court, when there is a possibility of some set
tlement being arrived at. With the New York
judiciary in
. its present condition,' enjoying
neither the respect nor confidence Of the peo
ple, the performances of these enterprising
Fiske will soon result, as in. the case of the
Union Pacific Railroad, in removing the great
railroad interests from New York to Boston or
Philadelphia, where law is not as easily bought,
and sold and \bartered for as- in' New York.
New York is becoming a very dangerous centre
for monied corporations, since . the gambling
operations of a ring of greedy,. unprincipled
and very accomplished speculator's have been
almost reduced to a science. 'Stockholders
in railroad, express, steamship, , mining and
other corporations are naturally growing very
uneasy, as they see the ease and audacity with
which their property is converted into:the mere
tools for aggrandizing a few. sharp and unscru
pulous speculators, backed by courts and judges
as corrupt as themselves. Their • protection
will be found to be only in flight. There is no
hope of reforming the New York judiciary, so
long as New York remains under Democratic
rule, while there is probably no class of people
in the world so recklessly indifferent to the
rights and interests of / any and everybody but
themselves as the regular Wall street railroad
gamblers of the Fisk and Gould school. The
safety of the solid, quiet capitalists of New
York is in flight, it matters little where, pro
vided_.they_ar_e _outside of the atmospbere_of
Wall street and the jurisdiction of the New
York courts. : '
The N. Y. Times, commenting upon the
Susquehanna Railroad war, and the parts
played in it by certain New York judges,
speaks as follows of the judiciary of that,•eity
These judges have come to be popularlY
knoWni this one-as ,the_' Erie _Judge;_ that one
as the thieves Judge,' and a third by sortie
otlier---y et _4 - I'ore—offensive -designation,.---The_
practical result has been that the udiciary -of
our city hasconfidence forfeited the of the
publid, and instead
_of inspiring a sease: of se
curity and protection, has really becothe, to a
large - class - of reflecting - citizens a source" of
nervous anxiety."
The Philadelphia Age,. discussing the same
subject, observes :
"Let any Republican who undervalues the
importance of a pure judiciary, consider the
part now played by Judges in the New York
Railroad war. It may seem well enough in
the heat of a canvass to have unscrupulous
knaves on, the bench, ready to play a part in
election frauds. But let it be remembered that
every interest of society is at the mercy of
corrupt Judges."
In order to comprehend the true reason for
this most lamentable demoralization of the
New York bench, it will be only necessary to
remember that New York city always elects
the whole Democratic ticket by from thirty
thousand to sixty thousand majority.
The Indiati treaties specify that the annual
bounties given to the savages by the Govern
ment shall be paid in coin. Report says that
it has now been .ascertained that these . pay
ments have been made for years past in greed-
backs.. The 'records of the Treasury show that
the amounts in coin were handed over to the
Indian Department, and there is the best kind
of evidence that the difference between the
hard and paper money has been pocketed by
some 'enterprising officials. This is a bit of
precious raSeality which deserves furtherinves,
tigation. -Everybody knew that the Indian
Department : under former administrations Was
run in the interest of a ring of politiCal thielies
And, to this is,to_be Attributed the costly and

compare the prsent state of city atairs with

The unusual stringency , in the money mar
