TIME. •
;•1 ;, begto call the serious 'attention of the
Councils to the fact that Philadelphia,
ciarktg.,the past summer, suffered severely
f - Arotracted drought, producing heavy
:415inatuiy , industrial interests, and great
`4s:',lnvenlence to the whole community. As
.., - 4lady of the members of Council were prob
<*y{obsent from hoine during this water'
e, they may not have heard of it, and are
';?.censequently not that there is a neces
for action on their part to prevent its re
trhereis`a wide diversity of opinionto
as
cause of this severe drought. By many of
Saar scientific authorities it has been attributed
d want of rain, a cause over which City
4nolls have comiaratively little control. A
ski*, :theory, however, was broached, yes
ilierdai,'ly Mr. Evans, in'pommon Council,
xtitich, ; if correct, brings' this, whole
t i Zindakthe direct jurisdiction of the mu
' " 'lantherities, According to the Inquirer's
lepo#,Of r yesterday's proceedings in Common
Council s it is held by some ,
of the _members
thaf.'"the recent drought was all =owing to the
incompetency of Chief Engineer Graff!" This
new and startling theory will take the comma
_Jolty hi surprise. Since the days of tha prophet
„Elijah there has never been any man known
to possess the Power of causing - or terminatin_g
. a drought, and if Mr. Graff has hi any way
•possessed himself of this long-lost" faculty, he
certainly ought to be looked after." It is a very
serious "matter to have our water supplies thus
controlled, even by such an amiable, patriotic
arur intelligent gentleman as Mr. Grafi.
With our huge population and our enor
linens -- manufacturing interests
pendent upon the condition of the Schuyl
kill river, it creates an , irrepressible uncreness
to be told that this matter of droughts is con
': tolled by any single citize,n of Philadelphia.
'There are various, ways to meet this novel
state of affairs, and yet it is hard to say justhow
Mr. Graff should be treated. If harsh measures
are resorted to, if coercion is attempted; - who
Can-tell - that - the - Chief - Engineer will nut get
bis back up and put us on a chronic short al
lowance of water ? If, on the other hand, we
try conciliatory measures, amiable as Mr.
Grgir undoubtedly is, is it reasonable to sup
pose that he will surrender his power over the
clouds without a good, solid consideration?
- Why , should he ? *Every manis said — to
kave his price, and the price of exemption from
Arcinghts would probably be a large one. If we
were in Mr. Graff's place, we do not hesitate
to say that we should feel at liberty to make
e.inich a bargain with the city as would not give
the party of the second part absolutely all of
the advantage. Councils must act judiciously
in this matter. - After asc.ertaining, positively,
whether Mr. Graff does or does not possess the
Miraculous power ascribed to‘ him, the legal
question may fairly be raised whether or not a
single individual, be he public :official or private
citizen, cannot be compelled to surrender such
an exceptional privilege or power for the public
good, and after this has been tested by the
several courts, it will be time enough to deter
mine what course is to be pitisued toward the
iresent"thief-Engineer of the Water Depart
ment. Meantime he can be injuncted from
exercising' his poWer, pending the judicial de-'
_tision.of the case. •
And this brings,us to the point. where it
seems that Councils ire losing prdcious time.
It may,take years to settle the scientific, me
teorologic, mysterious question started by Mr.
Evans 'Yesterday, and meanwhile Mr. Graff
may'get up another drought on us nest sum
mer. For aught we know, he may have
already sold out a share in his patent to some
body Ase, whom an injunction would not
reach, and before we know it we may be high
and dry again, with anew and magnificent
Schuylkill Navigation Company claim upon us
for millions in place of the little bagatelle of the
kw or eight hundred thousand dollars that
express its present modesty. Under this .
state allairs, the true and only . course fel.
,:..Councils to - pursue is to do what lies
rn .their power to prevent a repetition of last
summer's disaster, by assuming that Mr. Graff
Lad nothing at,all to do with producing the
drought, and by providing, immediately, such
a pumping power at Fairmount -r-Water-Works
', 29 will maltepS independent even of such a
drought as that which has given us so much
trouble lately.
The whole community is agreed 'that we
list have a powerful steam ptuup at Fair
. mmt, anxiliary to the water power now in
use. We do not suppose that there is a sin
gle member of Councils who doubts the neces
• sity of such a provision, or who does not kuchv
that if such an engine had been ordered on the
first day of the re-assembling of Councils, it
could not be ready to go into operation
mulch before next July or August. Besides
the engine itself, engine and boiler houses are
t0:10 ; planned and built, and a new ascending
mairi`Made and laid to the reservoir, and to do
ail thWrequires much time. We believe" that
no preliminary step has yet been taken to ac
coMplillb this work so imperatively demanded
,by the' growing wants of Philadelphia; and we
;therefore urge once more upon our "Friends
fn gonneil 7 that no more precious time be lost
ingetting to work at such measures as wild se
, eure,tis from the disaster of another drought,
whether it •be owing to Mr. Prati's interference
•with,the.weather or not.

THE DAMY EVENING BULLETIN -PHILADELPHIA, FRIDAY; 4 i)CTOBER 2P,.1869.
These ars,the twecOunties tvbere Democratic
slim in eheting has been carried to the hi,gbest,,
point of rea'ection at former elections and it
1 10 °
is a singular ciinfession of - wealmese when
they pretend that'they> have even lost their
'power to 'carry Phuadelphia or to Maintain
their old , Vote in Luzerne. The,RepubjloWas
did not poll their full vote.iti either Philadel-
phih or Luzern° ; but, thanks to the regi4ry
htW, they were Able to, keep the DenPaeratic
vote down to something like proper nUmbera.
Brick Pomeroy; of the Neu, York - Democrat,
Who nlade speeches : for packer in Pennsylva-*
nia, and who, professes to know, all about ,the
canvass, is trying to enlighten his readeriits to .
the cause of the-Democratic defeat. Ile says
it. " should be' charged to ~the apathy and in
difference of prominent - Democrats i> Phila
delphia and elsewhere, and to the underground
determination of bondholding DemocriitsAutt
Packer should not succeed." He also'sitys
" The State Committee Was notoriously inade
quate to the , duty to be performed. It either
did not, could not, .or would net eve heed
. to
the wants of Dernocrats—in fact it seetned as if.
the entire management Of the late Campaign
in - Pennsylvania was but a splentßiOnux,"
Pomeroy also declares that the Democratic
leaders‘made, a mistake in not promising pro
tection to the working men of the State. He
does not mean protection to American indus
try, but protection against taxation for the
payment of the national debt. After all,' he
winds up his article as - iiillaws :
The 'platform '.was not 'exactly what it
should bave,been. The canvass was entered
upon witkaStrOng candidate—all the money
be :expended was absorbed .by the leeches
who hung around him—the "work a united
Democracy Should have performed was not
done—the - -result4s before the world to the
discredit of theDeriabcratic party' of the Key
stone State,- whiCh might have carried . .. the
election, but ditlmot through apathy, indiffer
erice-and-ignciranee or disregard of the Wants
of the people. '
it But: better luck next time! let it will not
Come except throughbetter management.
We cannot expect to: Stand by the roadside,
looking at the dead issues of the .past, and
reach the prize in the future. This is an wk.
of progress. The issues of the past are with
the dead. The demands of the people must
be met, and those who do not care for the in
terests WO, people must not expect to' be
cared form return."
TheireiS 'more sober truth in the confession
contained in these paragraphs than can 'usually
be found inAie. Democrat's articles. It is a
fact that. the Democratic platforrn was not at
all what it should have been. It attempted to
revive the old dead issues. But 4this is an
age of pro;lress. The issues...Of the past are
with-the dead." Let, the Democratic leaders in
Pennsylvania, before holding. another State
Convention tr to impress this truth on their
own minds and those of their followers. Then
they may re-organize and be able to carry on a,
campaign with something .of more influence
upon , the minds of the honest people of Penn
sylvania than Ass' Packer's twenty millions.
A PESTERED PRIEST.
The managers of the " School
Jubilee," which was celebrated last evening in
the Academy ° of Music, invited Father
Hyacinthe to attend and 'Participate in the ex
ercises. The priest of course did not come,
butte .deelinedin clevei note, written for
him by somebody else, in which he expressed
his regret at his inability to be present. Sup
pose-he- had 'acceptedi what -- good - result - would
have been obtained? He could not have un
derstood a single Word, of the exercises, but he
would have sat upon the stage like Patience
on a monument smiling - at an audience staring
at him through two thousand opera glasses.
He would net have helped the Sunday School
movement; he woillUtiot have made it
more dear to the pious heart
by his endorsement; he could not have made
`an intelligible speech if his salvation had been
at stake, and if he could have done so, lie
.would have preached such doctrines about the
Virgin Mary, and transubstantiation, as would
have .filled the worthy Protestant souls with
horror. If he 'had come, his presence would
have given the spectators precisely the kind ,of
gratification that they would have derived from
looking at the fat woman, cr the double-headed
girl, or the mammoth ox, or the calf with six
legs and two tails. The pious Pere. would have
'been merely an object of impertinent curiosity.
For. this reason it was not kind to ask him to
come, and it was wise for him to decline,
and in such a gentlemanly manner as to con
vey a sort of rebuke to his tormentors. We
think the people of this cOuntryiad better let
this man alone. Ile came here to seek tens=
yorary refug,erit a time of sore tribulation
..and diStien`P.fifter he had made a brave, heroic
protest against what he believed to be error in
the Church of which.ho-is a reverent member; -
a protest against the wrongs committed
by a ruler to when). he still gives faithful:
allegiance. instead of finding peace,
-he has been harassedovorried and bullied by
divines, over-zealous laymen, and disrespectful
reporters, who have even made public the ma
terials of his dinners. All this is in the vilest
taste, and it should he condemned by the sen
sible people of the community. Particularly
is Protestant adulation of this priest indelicate,
for it tends to widen the breach between him
and his Church,—a breach which Father Hya
cinthe himself is anxious to heal rather than
increase.
BOILER INSPECTION
The quarterly report of the Inspector of
Steam Eturines and Boilers contains several
interesting facts. Philadelphia has more steam
boilers than any other county in the United
StateS, arid it speaks well if& the careful
ness of our manufacturers and the efficiency of
our_ boiler inspection that since the office of
Boiler Inspector was created there has been no
steam boiler explosion in this city. The In
spector calls attention to one fact, however,
which indicates a necessity . for a change of the
inspection law in one particular. He states that
there are many owners who avoid inspes 7
tion under a clause of the act passed by the last
h Legislature, whereby the fact of the smallest
mount of" insurance against loss by
explosion ' debars ,the _lnspector-from
the exercise of his supervision. Under
this act, the whole public benefit of the inspec
tion of steam bOilers is lost, whenever - an
owner chooses to take a mere-nominalinsur
ance, the - premiuni - upon which may be less
'than the fee of the Inspector.
,The law is cer
tainly very weak at this point and needs revi-.
_slot,. As it stands - it oilers an easy method of
evasion to those who ate not conscientious
about keeping their boilers, in proper repair,
the very class who most need the constant
lance of the Inspector. , There are l betweOu
fifteen I:Mildred and two thotisamlsteaM boilers.
in Oneration in this city; and with such an ex:-

While our explanation of the unfitness of the
COlesiuria organ for Horticultural Hall has not
called 'forth any opinionexiareSsioef from the
geintlemen who inaugurated the movement for
the purchase of the instruinant,'it has received
the hearty approval of several of the most coin
pe,tent musicians--orgazie t ti generally—in the
tit/. These 'gentlemenlave waited upon us
to; eclare their satisfaction with the views ex
pressed in this paper, and to state that in their
opinion the (Erectors of, Horticultural Hall will
make a fatal mistake if, they pertnit theinselves
to be inveigled into such a purchase, One of
the most distinguished organists in this city,
a musicianWur was present at the 'jubilee and
who—played= - rt n the . :Organ,' , declared
1. 1
to us, that it was' - J.unfit , , for any
ball upon. ..,4_ his continent. _ Placed
under .a pavilion in Fairmount ,Park, it would
do very well; but if it occupied, the stage of
Horticultural Hall, it would be certain to
drown every other noise in the neighborhood
and very likely rattle
i the windows to pieces.
We hope the directors will heed the Ninrning of
these experts' and abandon the effort ,to procure
this instrument. If they still: adhere to their
desire to purchase, let them aslr for written
opinions from our leaAling organists andplasi--
dons generally. We know that these will be
:almost unanimous against the purcha.se. The
- advice - of such men cannot be lip;htly rejected.
In the first place they knoW nmre &bout such
matters than the worthy directors of the hall,
'und, second; they will, have to perform upon
the instrument if it is purchased. i 4"
Secretary Robeson has issued a general order_
upon the sithject of the treatment' f seamen in
the navy, whichis,so, liberal, and -yet so much
in accordance with' the demands of justice, that
the author deserves the thanks of every humane
mat; After urging upon* comp:fanciers of ves
sclSthe exercise of a incite, generous policy in
giving holidays ti) seamen, the Seeretary con
denins the too common Practice of_, courts
martial in withholding the 'pay of sailors as a
.punishment for misconduct. We have always
regarded this Niecies of penalty as only less
iniquitous and cruel than flogging and - tying
by - tlie - tbumbs.- - In the latter cases the culprit
suffers inhuman torture:; in." the former
the consequence ofi his— wickedness or
negligence is visited upon the heads of his un
offending family, who are deprived of their
means of livelihood. Secretafy Robeson dep
recates_ the common infliction of this Tonnish
ment, and plainly intimates that he" will never
approve a sentence of which such cruelty is a
part. Congress has prohibited foyfeiture of
pay unless with the sanction of the Dppart
ment ; but we think Congress might go further,
and remove this froM the list of punishments
in the case of officers as well as Men. Multi
tudes of penalties can be devised which will
punish offences and insure the maintenance Of
strict discipline. • This one belongs. to that past
age when the navy was disgraced by systematic
brutality in thetreatment of subordinates.
If the other Street railrOadS• follow the ex•
ample of the Spruce and Pine street road, and
employ., .a fare box - , which will do away with
conductors, there should be, an immediate
of the fares to five cents. It has
always,been our opinion that the seven cent
fare was extortionate .and wholly :unwarrant
able ; for it is well known that most of the
..companies make enormons r —and it has, been
asserted in some`' uses illegal-4rotits. But
when such a saving is effected as that which
will result from the discharge of the Conductors,
all the companies can afford to put the price
flown two cents instantly. A good deal of
sympathy will be felt with the poor men who
will be thrown' out, of employment in mid
winter, but if the companies, rather than the
general public, are to be the gainers by this
happy business, 'sympathy will give' place to'
very warm indignation.
" I am afraid," said ROthermel yesterday,
" that such a big canvas will . make Harrisburg
look very small when it arrives there."
The picture in fact, in its new mounting,
looks inordinately large. To accommodate it
a change was Made during the summer in the
internal economy of Mr. Harrison's " Studio
Building," at Fifteenth and Market streets.
Asthc picture grew and grew, it appeared,as
if Mr, Bothermel's studio was in some danger
of bursting, and therefore, in order to digest
its 14.uid properly, an operation Was effected,
Two of the largb cellm were thrown into one.
The change took place niysterlously, in the
dull season, when nobody was by, so - -that it
can never be exactly known. whether mortal
agents were employed in this species
of Caesarian operation, or whether the mere
natural and healthy advancement of the pic
ture occasioned the demolition or absorption
of tlie - partitiorht - The compartment sacrificed
is that heretofore used, in a forlorn half-vital
ized way, for a public picture gallery; in this
ante-room, formerly; visitors to the studios
have been chilled and depressed by meeting
a few portraWby Lambdin, a russet-colored
Italian girl of Perry's, and Gazzauiga, in a
highly artificial cothplexfon and clammy Ai* .
Aeries, Singing a cheerlessbrindisi liko a ghost
in Hades. This gallery is now a part of Roth
-ermel's painting4oom;whieh thus becomes, a.
thoroughfare tor the studios Ipyond.
The painting is rapidly auvancing in in-.
tcrest, a, great many recognizable portraits
being introduced among the participants of
the action. A telling likeness of General.

FRIDAY, Oct. 21.1F.69.—The present volume of Liminess
tardy warrants the.present demand for currency or the
exacting tatem asked by individual lenders for accom
modatiora. But'-money la decidedly scarce, and
rendered more so by the system of extended credits
which marks the Western trade this 'season
to an unusual degree, and renders it necessary that our
merchants should go into the loan market to meet matu
ring obligations and Maintain their credits. It is a
mistaken. policy, and One which, in the end, will prove
injurious to all parties concerned. There is no material
change in any of the main features of tha market.
The gold market continues weak, and the present low
premium is tempting to speculators, though very little is
Acing that way just now. The sales opened at 124,L4 and
übsequently advanced to 12Sil.
