GOLD DOWN.
Under ..tlie steady influence of Mr; Bout
•well’s policy, and the increasing confidence of
tlie people in President Grant’s honest and
oconomical administration of the Government,
gold has reached a point below any decline
that has occurred since the beginning of the
BelicDion. Yesterday, it touched 121$, and
we expect to see it still lower to-day. Long
and desperate as bas been the fight of the
Wall street gamblers to maintain gold at a
fictitious valne, it has gravitated irresistably
toward par, as the country has taken in mole
■folly the idea that there is, at last, an Admin
istration whose grand central purpose is to
restore public confidence and credit, and to
(bring ns back with safety and speed to specie
payments.
In canning out this purpose, the Government
is brought into constant conflict with a deter*
-mined and very desperate opposition. The
gamblers in gold, on the one side, see their
favorite fieldof wild speculation daily narrow-'
mg upon them; while the importers, and other
merchants more indirectly concerned, naturally
look to the effect of the decline of gold upon
Iheir stocks of goods on hand. For the former
class there is; of'course, no’sympathy. The
gold gamblers of Wall street are probably the
worst and most unprincipled of all the “dan
gerous classes” in this country. Their reckless
disregard of the commercial distress which has
followed their rascally combinations to cheat
the public and to destroy the confidence of the
Country in its own securities, rules them out.
from any right to advise or control the wise
and honest policy of the Government. .
The effect of the decline of gold upon the
mercantile community is a very different thing.
The bubbles of the gold gamblers have dazzled
and confused many ordinarily prudent and
sagacious business men, arid they have failed
to see that, in the presence of the substantial
facts of President Grant's administration, the
price of gold had become purely fictitious and
must fall to a natural and true standard. Every
one has admitted, theoretically, that an ap
proach to specie payments must be accotri
panied by no small degree of commercial sub
arrassment and distress. But, practically, the
gold gamblers have had tlieir wav, and have
induced thousands to doubt the near approach
of specie payments and to delay that reduction
of stocks, that close-reefing of sail, which r all
have admitted would he indispensable when
gold actually started on its last movement
toward par.
It is announced that mercantile delegations
are besetting Secretary Boutwcll and the Presi
dent with appeals to suspend the gold sales.
They represent that the sale of $11,000,000 in
December must be attended wjth wide-spread
distress and min. But is it fair to bring this
kind of pressure upon the Government? Sym
pathizing heartily with all those who, in their
legitimate business, must feel the pinching of
the decline in gold, is it not true that this de
cline in gold is the great national want of the
country? If the decline came from fictitious
causes, then it might be right to oppose Gov
ernmental obstacles to it. But gold is falling
from.a proper and healthy cause. It is falling
because it has been unduly inflated, and be
cause President Grant lias already established
and assured the uational - credit. It is falling
because the people are daily more satisfied that
the public debt is being paid and is to be paid,
honestly, rapidly and to the uttermost farthing.
Gold is low, only because there is no sound
reason why it bhould be high. Therefore, it
„ would be a national injustice to force gold up
again, even to relieve the pressure that falls
heavily for the time upon a large and most im
portant class of people.
' This strong decline in gold affects, at first,
hut one class of values, and therefore it acts as
a hardship. But as all values are relative, the
burden will rapidly distribute itself through all
the channels of business and departments of
social life, and will grow lighter as it is thus
distributed. AH classes deplored and were
alarmed at the rise in gold; let all classes strive
to adapt themselves to and rejoice over -its de
cline. The rise meant distrust, anxiety, dis
credit, fear, speculation. The fail means re
stored corilidehce, credit, peace and national
stability.

In taking contracts for “ cleaning” the streets
of Philadelphia, the contractors have always
calculated upon entire exemption from all
duty for about sue mouths of the year, from
November to May . This period composes
the scavenger’s winter, and it has always been
the harvest season of his profits, as his pay
■was based upon the idea of twelve months m
the year, which he practically reduced to six.
Does the Beard of Health propose to extend
the: oldirnmnnityto. theiitrectcontractOfs?
Are they to go into winter quarters, leaving
the city one vast expanse of accumulating mud,
which is again to form the excuse for the tardy
cleaning up of next Spring? We hope not.
There is no possible reason why Philadelphia
should not be dean at all times; but there is
jk) possible way to clean it, if the
contractors are allowed to shirk the whole
business for five or .six months of
every year. Our winters are "very often
wild enough to permit the work of the sca
venger io go on without interruption, and it is
only in exceptional seasons that the snow or
frost interferes with it more titan a month at a
lime. Whether the coming winter is to be a
severe or mikl one, it is difficult to determine,
but the indications are that, it will be an open
winter. Some of the weather-wise predict a
But the Board of Health can do one tiring.
It is very certain that winter has not yet come.
It will be here, by .calendar, to-morrow, hut, by
thermometer, it may not be 'here for a month.
Why not order one grand rally along the whole
line, and move upon the works of the enemy,
before any decent excuse forgoing into winter
quarters can be made? Why not issue an
amnesty proclamation to the contractors from
New-Year’s Day to All Fool’s Day, on condi
tion that before Christmas, Philadelphia shall
be, for once, actually clean?. It would be a
Christmas present to tlie people of Philadelphia,
'as'fare and as highly prized as that which Sher
man sent to Mr. ; Lincoln at Chistmas tide,
five years ago. There is a glorious chance for
the Board of Health here. The streets w’ere
never much if any more filthy , than they are
now. The weather is mild; the inducement
to the contractors is ample; the reward of a
people’s gratitude ought to be all-suffipient.
With clean streets "at New Year, there will' be
comparatively little accumulation of dirt during
the next three months, and the Board of
Health will be able to open the Spring cam
paign with a good prospect of success. By all
means, gentlemen of the Board of Health,
gives us a short, sharp and decisive move upon
the earthworks, immediately.

THE CUNIOAL CONTROTEBBY.
We are glad to see, by the foUowing pream
ble and resolution,that the worthy managers of
the Pennsylvania Hospital have adopted the
repeated recommendations of this paper, and
taken preliminary steps to establish separate
clinical lectures for their female medical stu
dents. Their preamble sets forth a fact not
alluded to in the medical manifesto, to wit:
that women have been long attending medical
lectures at many ef the principal schools of the
world, without opposition, and the managers
fairly quote this fact as a full reason for their
not having anticipated the opposition raised
here. '
The Hospital” Authorities have recognized
that public sentiment upon the subject which
has been so freely expressed by the daily press
of Philadelphia, arid, by providing a separate
course of lectures for the women, have fur
nished them with all the facilities for medical
instruction which they desire. This action
will be satisfactory to everybody except that
class of the medical profession which opposes
itself bitterly to the whole idea of female medi
cal instruction ; hnt as even this class bas con
fined its public objections to the single ground
of mixed clinics, it is debarred from finding
any fault with the introduction of women into
the Pennsylvania Hospital on the terms pro
posed by the managers. The following are
the preamble and resolution of the-Board:
long and cold season, hut other exports read
tiie signs in a directly opposite direction. Brit
we do not propose to discuss the point upon
which these learned meteorologists differ. If
they who have devoted their lives to the study
of these questions cannot agree as to the re
sults, it would hopeless for others to under
take a settlement of the controversy.
■ Pennsylvania Hospital, 11th MoDth 29,
—At a stated meeting of the managers,
held this day, the following preamble and re
solution was unanimously adopted:
Whereas, It appears that tlio resolution
adopted by the -hoard at their stated meeting,
held 25th ult.,’authorizing the" attendance of
female Students at. the clinics of the hospital
has given rise to much dissatisfaction on the
part of many physicians and students of this
city; ami t thereat, such opposition was entirely
unexpected, from the fact that female stu
dents had been attending the clinics of the
Bloekley Hospital of this city, as well as Belle
vue Hosnital. New York; Edinburgh, Scot
land, and Zurich, Switzerland, without, solar
as we were aware, there .being any opposi
tion ; and whereas, it is the desire of the manat
gi is of the hospital to avoid giving any jnst
ground for dissatisfaction; therefore,
JiesOlved, That a committee of live he ap
pointed to confer with the medical and sur
gical staff of the hospital, to provide for sepa
rate clinical instruction to the female students
of medicine on at least one < day each week,
and that upon the completion of such an ar
rangement the other clinical lectures be con
fined to classes composed of males only.
M. L; Dawson, President.
Wist Alt Mourns, Secretary.
The French Legislative session was opened
yesterday under quite auspicious circum
stances. As our Paris correspondence has
lately indicated, the extreme radicals among
the opposition have lost ground by theirviolcnt"
and foolish conduct, and the ■ Emperor has
gained strength in proportion. His speech
yesterday was very conciliatory in tone, but it
expressed his determination to remain master
of Fi ance, and as master, to preserve order.
At the same time he promised a number of re
forms that may tend to reconcile many per
sons who have lately been-dissatisfied. The
sincerity of these promises can-be betterjudged
as (lie session advances and the acts of the
Emperor and his ministers are brought"
befoie the Legislature. But the open
ing of the session is manifestly much
more pacific than it was expected to be a month
ago. It is significant that the noisy charlatan,
llenri Rochefort, was not present when the
Legislative Body assembled, and when his
name was called, it was hissed. Rochefort has
ceased to be dangerous, and so has ceased to
be respected, ne is no speaker, and he has
nut . yet undertaken to start a newspaper.
Since the Emperor, by permitting him to'come
back to France, has shown that he is not
afraid of him, even the anti-imperialists seem
to begin to despise him.
The Congressional Special Committee “to
inquire into the cause of the decline of Ameri
can commerce and shipping,” will meet in this
city to-morrow morning, and remain in session
for several days. Its meetings will be held at
the office of the Surveyor of the Port,’ Custom
House, and suggestions and information rela
tive to the purpose of the Committee are
solicited from our citizens. The Chairman of
the Committee is the- Hon. John Lynch, of
Maine, and Pennsylvania is represented by one
of her best men, the Hon. D. J. Morrell. The
subject referred to this Committee is a most
important one, and should attract the attention
aiid coulhil. I'o-nju’ratic.il) of our mercantile
community. •
OBITUARY.
Giui.a Giusi
According to a telegram dated at Berlin,
Prussia, yesterday, Madame Giulia Grisi, the
great Italian singer, is dead. She was the
daughter of a topographical engineer officor
of the first French Empire, and was horn at
Milan, May 22d, 1812. She was a niece of a
once celebrated singer, Josephine Grassini.
She was educated at a convent in Girizia, but
entered the Conservatory at Milan at an early
age.. An older sister, Giuditta, had been
taught singing there and had won great suc
cess on the operatic stage, hut died young.
She made her first appearance when 16 years
old, at Bologna, in Itossini’s' now forgotten
opera of Zelmlra. Afterwards she sang at Flor
ence, Milan and other cities. In 1832, at Milam
Bbc sang the part of "AJalgisa” in Bellini’s Nor
THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN-PHILAD
’ Pasta playing her great part of tlie Druid
priestess. In the same year she appeared at
Paris in tiemiramide, and in 1834 she made her
debut at London in' LaOazza Ladra. Bellini
■ wrote his -Vuritanl for her, and the rdlo of
“ Elvira” becamo ond of the. best she appeared
in. Along with Bnbini, Xaxntmrini and La
hlacho, she sang for many successive seasons
at tho ltaliah operas of Paris and London.
Her voice was a full, rich, sympathetic sopra
no, and "In her youth it was flex!bio enough
for all of Bossini’s operas.’ "When it hid
lost this quality, she still maintained a high
rank on the lyric stage by her splendid decla
mation and magnificent acting. She came to
America with Signor Matfo in 1854, when her
powors wero-on tho wane. But her “Norma,”
her “Lucrezia Borgia,” her “Donna Anna,”
her “Semiramide,” “and her “Elvira” were
ever, then superb personations. ' Her face was
very noble and handsome, her poses were all
majestic and graccfnl, and her' acting was in
tensely dramatic without being exaggerated-
Unfortunately she remained too long on the
stage, and after her return to Europe Bhe made
several engagements for “ farewell appear
ances” in London, the last of which, about'
three years ago, came to a sudden end on the
first evening, for her voice was cracked, and
tho faithless London public hissed her, „ Since
then she has lived in retirement, most of the
time in England, She was married when
young to a Frenchman named Gerard de
Melcy, from whom she was soon separated
and subsequently divorced. On his death she
married Signor Mario, with whom sho had
lived for some years, and by whom she had
several children.

Cincinnati, Nov. 30.— Tho following points
occurred in the argument of W. M. Ramsey,
yesterday, before tho Snpreme Court, for tho
plaintiffs, in the case of enjoining the School
Board from expelling the Bible' f rom tho
schools: To show themselves entitled to tho re
lief prayed for, the plaintiffs mast establish
two propositions; first, that religions instruc
tion in contemplation of tho law is an essen
tial element of our common school system of
education; second, that tlicßoard or Educa
tion of the city of Cincinnati has not the
power to prohibit all religious instruction in
the schools of the city. These propositions
will be met, It may fairly be anticipated, by
■ first,a general denial, and second, the affirma
tion that,irrespective of any action on the part
of the School Board, religious instiuctlon is
unlawful. I respectfully submit that religious
. instruction is an essential part of our common
school system of education,” he says, “but I
affirm with entire confidence, as a proposition
of law,that had the constitution been as silent as
these laws,had it simply declared that it should
be the duty of tho Legislature to establish
schools, the construction would ho precisely
the same—that religious instruction would be
as clearly contemplated as now by the express
language of that instrument.”
He then quoted the customs of public
schools in other countries and the grants of
(state authority for establishing schools in the
United States, at Athens and Oxford, Ohio,
among the instances to show that religious
instruction was contemplated.
In conclusion, he said that “.these resolutions
forbid all religious instruction. As I before
remarked, they arc in substance a repudiation
not oniy of Christianity, but of all religion,
in the broadest sense of which the term is
susceptible. They clearly constitute such a
case as was supposed by the Court in pro
nouncing an opinion in the Girard Will case,
hut from which that case was distinguished.
I desire to adopt and to submit to the Court,
as part of, iny argument, every word of the
great argument of Mr. Webster in that case,
an argument that was not answered or denied
by the Court,so far as its conclusions were
concerned, the Court holding that Christianity
might he taught in the orplian.s' coljege hy
pious laymen, thus avoiding Ins conviction
without controverting his premises,”, The
argument occupied three hours.
.Judge Stailo spoke two hours yesterday for
tho defence, and Will conclude to-day.' He
said that Christianity was : no part of tlie law
of the State; f or, if it were-, certain duties, pe
culiarly Christian, must ho enjoined upon citi
zens in relation to certain rites which none
hut Christians observed. Tho observance ot
certain virtues, usually called Christian, are
enjoined by the State ’ laws not because they
are Christian, hut because essential Tor the
good order of society. The State, enforces ho
duty as Christian duty. Christians hold no
rignts in preference over persons professing
other creeds or no creed. The Jew, for in
stance, has the same rights as tlie
Christian—tlm same remedies for
wrong!), can sue, hold property, or office, or
vote. JJ is synagogue is exempt from taxation
the same as tlie Christian church. He quoted
the case Bloom vs. Richards, 2d Ohio Reports,
Scc.3B7; He said it was no objection, but on
the contrary,'!! recommendation to a Legisla
tive enactment,'based on justice and public
policy, that it would he found to coincide with
the precepts of.pure religion; but nevertheless
the power to make a law vests In the Legisla
tive control over things temporal, not spirit
ual, for no power over things spiritual had
ever been delegated to tlie Government, while
any preference of one religion over anot her is
directly prohibited by the Constitution. Chris
tianity was no part of the common law of
Ohio, nor as was tlie case with Massachusetts,
New York aud Virginia once, but not in Ohio
to-day, thanks to God. He quoted from the
writings of the Protestant, * Roger Sherman;
tlie Catholic, Charles Carroll, and the. infidel,
Thos. Jefferson, to show that diversity of
opinions existed among Christianson the au
thenticity of tlie New Testament. He also
quoted from the Bov. Samuel Richardson’s
book. Ho said it. was not a little curious to
see how nearly this Presbyterian divine agrees
with certain propositions advanced by tho
Jesuit father in this city in a recent lecture on
the Bible, though their ulterior conclusions are
so widely divergent. Tho legislature of} Ohio
cannot judge between the two, nor can the
Board of Education of the city of Cincinnati
judge. The honest conviction is that- both of
these memorials must lie respected by the State
of Ohio. .

31on*pav,Nov.29.—The week opened with great excite
ment in the Gold Boom , where tin; announeezuent of the
programme of Hecretary Boutwell for the month ©FBe
cemV-r led to a decline in gola to 122 ft, the lowest point
atlttiuod since Boptember, 1862. when it was on the as
cending ucaJe in the earlier day* of tl>c war. The week
lies* oi the market ever since the culmination of the
‘‘corner. '* two months ugOvhaaboen the occasion of great
uneasiness in mercantile circle*, particularly among the
importers, to whom tho fluctuation.* of gold
arc of wo vita! importance. The Gold
Boom wa* therefore tin* wctijt- of gri.-at attraction thin
morning, and the -ame class of LTininess men who be
fore rc intcrcAted in tho fell machinations of ,the
clique that rurm-d ttie, premium beyond all redson
abje bounds-'were again watching n-volu
tiou*ot the pointer on the gold index. Then they
w'eie>’oiieerii<Hi because in making payment for gosUs
bought earlier in the •.-•eason they were fore.ed* to
buy aold at ati immense udvaoo upon the price when
their purchH«it> were made, Now they
enni.Hr coorerned bvrau*e the deeliue {» gold
not onlv obliterated nil maruin of proiit, t»ut « , ncroacb , 'd

if turii'-d, upou flu-n'port that Mr. Stpvnrt and other
Promim-nt merchant*' had telegraphed to Secretary
JJi-uTweli tliar if he did not cesi«— J»js sales there
would be a panic wbiub would min the inuporforri.
AVe give tho • reju>rt for whj«t it is worth.
At the faun- time there was a disposition to ?>uy gold
for the purchase of exchange, the combined efl'ect o!
which wn*i to cause u reaction to 122 ft. There was also
some covering by tho 41 aborts, v the staturneur of the
thdd Bank .-hewing a total of over twenty-one millions
of gold cleoredou.Haturday. Tlie market closed fitroug
at l22'tal22't. at half-past iiva o’cloek this evening: bat
holder* are«dill very totiiefntun*.. The pro
gramme of Secretary Boutwell contemplates tbo tale of
eb veii million*during the month of l»ccembcr, aud as
the didimhciuenti- of the Treasury on the Ist of January
in the payment of th«“ coin interest on the public debt
will tie about thirty-iiva millions, and us tho banks itt
thi?t city now hold thirty millions of gold, the prospect Is
that there will be a glut of tin* precious metal at tne be
ginning of the new year. The speculative feeling for u
rice is u very tame one, and at the sumo time few have
the c<'«rago to sell gold short 77 after so great a d'-cllne.
Looking at the iqurkct from th« Wall strt-et standpoint,
it lb really weaker than if tho sp*vnlation va« roi active as
when the 4 * bulls 7 ’ inaugurated their campaign loot sum
mer, for the reason timt the dUninisheit volume of opera
tions create le&sdt-mund for gold-
The excitement and decline iu the gold market led to
heavimts and a decline in the stock market, holders be
ing greatly perplexed os to the < fleet which lower gold
will nave upon their iuvr-ptnienl>-, and being inclined to
dispose of thcm.wliiio those who are not interested
cither way preferred avtaiting developments. At the
opening prices were not very different from the closing
quotations on Saturday, except for the ?dockfc, which arc
more immediately the subject of special clique manipu
lation.
Tlie full in gold directly influenced the prico of govern
ment bond* • which gave way at tfo* noon call to tho
lowest ihadc «inrc hint summer. Th« decline is all tbe
more reinarkahlo for the fuct that the Treasury cont*m-
I dates tho extensive purohasfc of thirteen million* of
;ond« during December. The price in London to-day
was&Vft, the advance thc-ro being predicated upon tho
deriin* in gold here, kin tlie nlternoou. with the re
action in gold aim under purchase* by the short interest,
the market rallied strongly.
The full In gold bus blocked the exports of unklueo-,
and hence, under a scanty supply of commercial bills uii<J
with the demand for exenanqe uriniiig out of the lower
price lor gold, the leading hunker- advanced their rates
for primo sixty day sterling to 109 ft and for -debt ster
ling to 10yft. the full range of quotations is given below.
Idie.money market was a slunk- more active toward tlie
Hose of bunking hourd, but the demand whs fully met at
six to seven per cent, according to the character ot col

retired and placed under proper treatment,
