VENING BULLETIN.
Monday, December 20, 1860.
IS i w Ak V•4l/4138E?
I '7 The'lloard of /lean]) has had charge of the
street-cleaning of Philadelphia for the past
seveli or eight months. When tbe Board un
,4o)ertO4k this work, the city was buried, almost
`hopelessly, in the filth of the preceding winter
and spring, and mouths were spent in getting
down to the payments, through the masses of
mud that represented the rascalities of the old
system of so-called street-cleaning. The Board
went rigorously to work. Now contracts were
made; stringent regulations were adopted;
and high hopes were excited. The press.
generally, encouraged and , sustaitisd the Board
of Health in their plans and purposes, and, so
far as we know, every oliportunity was afforded
for a fell and fair trial of the new experiment.
What has been the result? Full time, has
been Olowed to try both the contractors and
their employers, and the fact stares the people
of Philadelphia in the face, that the last state of
the Board of Health's work is worse than the
first. Never were the streets in a more
wretchedly bad condition than they are to-day.
There has bee* nothing like a systematic
cleaning anywhere. Occasionally a contractor
has bad his monthly warrant stopped on ao
count of some unusual accumulation of the
filth in his district; but upon the whole, it is
Lard to detect any essential difference between
the appearance of the streets, now, and the old
Iturviliar filthiness of past seasons.
To-morrow, new contracts are to be nude.
There has been a change in the street-cleaning
districts, so as to increase their number and
thereby diminish their size. But we hear of
no ebange in the system, and yet these new
contracts are to be given out for two years.
There appears to be no new guaranty that the
sontracts will be enforced, and time, instead of
improving the contractors, will, we fear, only
make them more reckless in the neglect of their
duties.
The Buil.Emii most heartily advocated the
trial of this new experiment. It urged that
nothing could be worse than the old plan, and
gave to the new one the most cordial encour
agement and support. 'But the new system
has worked no better than the old ''one, and
Philadelphia is little, if any, better than be
fore, in the cleanliness and decency of its
streets. Whether the system is to blame, or
whether its proper operation has proved too•
much for the gentlemen composing the loard
of Health, we are not quite prepared to say.
One thing is very cer,taln. If none but the
eontractors who have kept their districts pass
ably decent have been paid, during the last six
months, the city ought to have saved a very
large sum of money. We know of no In
stance of a contractor having honestly earned
his pay; while, in most cases, their neglect has
been of the most flagrant character.
We have been slow to find fault with the
Board of Health, because, knowing some
thing of the difficulties of the work, we have
been desirous of making every allowance for
its imperfect performance. But if we are to
start out with two years more of such farcical
contracts as' those that have insulted the com
mon-sense of the people and robbed the pub
lic treasury during the last six months, it will
be impossible to resist the unwilling conviction
that the Boacd of Health experiment with the
mud problem of Philadelphia is a disn3al and
disappointing failure.
THE WOMEN'S SALARIES.
About two hundred yards of petition were
sent into Councils, last Thursday, asking
them to grant the reasonable request of the
School Controllers to, raise the salaries of
. the
timbers in our public schools. The Finance
Committee have the question before them, and
they are gentlemen not likely to treat this sub
ject otherwise than with the fair and generous
respect which it deserves. No sensible argu
ment has been advanced against the proposi
tion to bring these miserable salaries up to a
living standard, and the arguments in favor of
it are so patent and so strong that it seems
almost superlious to urge them further at this
time.
The strongest argument, perhaps, is that
which is drawn directly from admitted figures.
There is a considerable number of teachers in
the public schools, who,—to the shame of
Philadelphia it must be spoken,—receive $350
per annum for their work. These are re
spectable young wolf en, well-educated for their
special duties, laboriously prepared for their
profession, and constantly engaged in fitting
themselves for the more advanced positions in
the public schools. They cannot board, de
' 'ently - fir ebnifertably,' at-less-than five Aollars ,
a week. This is their universal testimony,
despite Mr. Steinmetz's suggestion that three
dollars-and-a-half ought to be their limit.
Their board, therefore, takes $260 out of their
poor pittance, leaving $9O for all other expen
ses. From this, many of them must pay ear
fare, and where their clothing and other neces
sary requirements are to be supplied, can only
be answered byzthe gentlemen who have argued
against the increase of these salaries.
• It is quite needless to represent how utterly
Mean and shabby such a starvation, policy
for a great city like Philadelphia. If it be true
that " if a man will not work, neither shall he
eat," the converse of the proposition is equally
true, in regard to these teachers , of the public
schoOls of Philadelphia. If a woman honestly
,works in.a noble and useful calling, she must,
eat, and be decently housed and clothed, with
a chalice to lay •by a few .dollars for days of
J: IC. GOULD,

sicknesss or other want. Philadelphia Is justly
pround of her High School, her -Normal
Schools, her handsome Grammar Schools, her
system of education. But it must be very
pleasant for our School Directors or Controllers
to take visitors from .13oSton, or New Yek or,
Chicage, through these schools, and bear their
praises of the good discipline and the general
efficiency and progre.ss of the various depart -
ments, and then have the humiliating con
fession wrung from them that the faithful,
bard-working, well-educated women to whom
these flattering results are so largely due, re
ceive for their labors considerably less than we
pay our cooks and chambermaids.
It seems impossible that Councils shall be
insensible to the just plea of these wretchedly
under-paid Women. Their case is such a sim
ple one, and such an exceeding hard one; that
it cannot he set aside or, neglected.' We 'make
an appeal for them because they are women.
When 'women enter upon any field of labor
shared by nien, they stand simply :npon the
same level both of rights and of obiigations. ' It
is:not out of chivalry, or any notion of superior
deference to one sex over the other, that this
claim should be pressed ; but only because' it is
not honest or respectable to impose- upon wo
mem—and it is only done because they are
women,--tie work now done by them in our
public schools, and well done, too, and at the
same time to starve and pinch them with a
compensation utterly inadequate to the barest ne
cessities of living, and wholly disproportionate
the nature and extent 0f the service rendered.
We trust that Councils will not hesitate in
this matter. They have just done a very cre
ditable thing in forwarding the grand educa
tional deSign of the University of Pennsylva
nia. Let them now turn to the lower round
of the ladder of learning, and encourage and
do justice to the women who are helping and
training the children to take their first steps in
the acquirement of that education which is
alike the honor and the•safeguard of the Ame
rican people.
THE NEW MINING HORROR.
On Saturday the BULLETIN announced
another terrible calamity in the Luzerne
county coal region. Two double houses, in-.
habited by four families, in the mining town of
Stockton, near llazleton, were enguiphed in a
mine that had been carried under them, with
only about twenty feet of earth between the
top of the mine and the • surface of the earth.
There bad been no proper supports erected for
the roof of the'mine, and without any warn
ing, it gave way, the houses, with their occu
pants, being swallowed .ap. Ten lives were lost
in this horrible way.
In this disaster there is a new hint on which
the Legislature must act this winter, in, pre
paring a bill to secure safety in mines.' There
are probably hundreds of these where a similar
accident may occur at any moment. The
State ought, to create an office of Inspector of
Mines, whose business it shall be to see that
proper ventilation and avenues of escape are
provided in cases of a fire like that of the
Avondale mine; to see that the roofs of all
mines are securely shored up, and to provide
against all other dangers to life and property.
If be finds any mine not entirely safe in all re
spects, he ought to have authority to stop all
mining in it until the danger is removed.
Every mining company in whose works loss of
life or injury results from the want of proper
,precautions, ought to be held responsible in
damages.
Walnut street, west of Broad, was treated
to one of its usual Sunday excitements yester
day afternoon. There was no lire, but enough
firemen .to extinguish a great conflagra
tion, turned out with their machines, and they
rushed along the street in the usual riotous,
Uproarious:way, followed by thousands of idle
boys. The police were scarce, and, of course,
there was no compliance with the new order
to arrest all boys running with fire companies.
The street, for a while, was in a terrible state
of turmoil. These things will continue until
we get a Paid Fire Department.

The New Turk Money Market.
(From the Herald of to-dap.]
Srm/ni, Dec. I9.—The course of the various markets
during the week was in close sympathy with gold.
The stock cliques whohad unloaded their "long' stock
the week previous were free sellers for a decline and
gave tie money market rather a tight squeeze to asnist
their plans. (Jos - eminent bonds were heavy and weak.
despite the approach of the time for the payment of
the January interest, and touched the lowest point
since, Spring. The State bonds were steady, particu
larly for those on which the interest had been regu
larly paid, South Carolinas were the feature of the
lint and rapidly advanced on the pas gaze
of a bill •in one branch of the Legislature
Is bids provides for the payment of the interest iu coin.
Foreign exchange was irregular, for, after becoming
strong with the decline in gold to 120:ii. it weakened at
the close when cold had gone to 1203. i. Commercial
paper was less sfiectedtban would have been supposed
by the 1111111CrolIS failures announced during the week.,
but the note brokers who possess the statistics reported
that the looses this year have not been so great aseluring
the winter of IS6a, and the class of paper uttering on the
street has not been impugned. The public mind is so
sensitive, however. that more notice has been taken of
eves the small failures which have been a regular oc
currence every winter.
The weekly tank statement proved quite unfavorable,
fo the great surprise of the street, the expectation
basing been general that cruder the operations of the
Treasury in buying bonds to a greater extent than it
sold gold, the item of legal tenders would have, at least
shown an increase. On the contrary, however, there is
a decrease of over two millions, while the total loss in
reserve is about a million and three-quarters, the item
'of specie increasing by the small amount of three hon.
dreu and htty thousand dollars. Inasmuch as the Slit V
meets to the interior have been on a- reduced scale, it'
indeed they were not less than tie receipts, only ono
concliodon is left, viz., that the market--wee
artificially manipulated in connection with the iitiaculit
tivelllQV.lllerita of the week in gold and stocks. Of these
influences we bad convincing proof in the stringency of
'Monday. Tuesday and Wednesday last, and the Inter case
in money was duo to the Treasury disbursements. Were
it not for -the bond purchases the 4-Iliine would have
made the squeeze continuous throughout the week. The
,Item of loons shows an increase of only a hundred thou
sand dollars. which. is attributable to a cousogrative
feeling on the part of both the banks and their custo
mer.. all of schwa are desirous of making as little new
business as pds.sible preparatory to winding up their
books for the year.

late Senator Fessenden, with an accompanying portrait
of deceased. The hill was passed.
Mr. Patterson reported favorably the Rouse joint
resolution to annul the leasing of the Custom-house
block in San Francisco.
. _ .
The joint resolution was read, Mr. Patterson stating
that the Colllll3ittee has ascertained that the reports that
there spill a job in their 'natter were unfounded • that
though the rate of *12;00 per year in coin offered for
the site might now be sufficient, it would not possibly be
sufficient fur the period during which the lease was to
continue, being 25 years.
He alluded to the difficulty of determining the proper
site for a public building in that city on account of the
liability of the ground being shaken by earthquakes,
though New England had experienced more violent
earthquakes than San Francisco. The real question
was whether the Secretary of the Treasury had any
right to lease this land.
Mr. Ramsey remarked that the alleged affinity of
earthquakes for New England territory might furnish a
good reason for the Government dispensing with the hu
provements of certain ptiblic buinlings, the Custom-
E time among others.
Mr.Pattereon replied that the peopleof Boston were not
vet y greatly exercised about theCustom•lionse tumbling
down, were willing, as New England people gene•
rally are, to assume all legitimate risks.
lr. Cole explained the facts connected with the lease,
belies icy it to be the best that the Government could
obtain. He vindicated his course in the matter,remark
icy that it had been in harmony with the wishes of the
Congressionail representation from California. He was
willing that the pending bill should pass,but gave notice
that lie would ask at the hands of Congress some profit
idle disposition of the property in question.
Remarks were also made by 'Messrs. Casserly, Corbett
and Williams, the latter remarking that the Seerctiry
of the Treasury had been actuated by the wisest course
JD protecting the interests of the Government, but that it
Was better at this time for thy Government to disailii
tie lease.
....
The joint re sti d itt a ion reported was then passed. '
