'e Beecbers, Henry and Harriet, are an
it WI ..eqing couple. Living uponpopular
pop
sotoriety, straining after popular diem, with
aileyel eye :o pecuniary advantage, they possess
jiiilegree of sablnue self-conceit which comes
to their rescue in all the times of their ad-
versifies, and lifts them np above the people
lAA fill their pockets, to soar with an amusing
asomplaceney in the rarified atmosphere of the
most aristocratic exclusiveness. Mr. Beecher,
despising the caution that governs wiser and
less conspicuous men, .blunders into the
mire of the Richardson-McFarlaud scandal,
and when the thunders of the outraged moral
senSe'of the people roll about his astonished
ears, he coolly defends himself under the
assertion that be "does not read the newa
papers." Mrs. Stowe, from her still lower
position of disgrace, holds up her head with
the same haughty pretence, and, with a silly
affectation of magnanimity, informs the
American press that she has not read one of
the criticisms upon her disgusting revelations
of the alleged Byron scandal. And while on
this high horse, Mrs. Stowe indulges in an
absurd disclaimer of the idea that she hail any
eye to a literary venture in, the publication of
her scandalous story.
C The press of America and of England will
have but one answer to make to these foolish
assumptions of Mrs. Stowe. Being :I:Beecher,'
nobody expected her to be quiet, or to ag
knowledge herself wrong. But it e, ill be re
marked that, fora woman who has read none
of the criticisms of her unclean work, she has
managed to posiesti herself, pretty thoroughly,
of their nature and substance, and, so far,
may still be called womanly. But if it had
been that she had read nothing that the
press had said about her, what right has she to
deduce from the fact the demand that "now,
as I have done you this justice;"—of treating
what you have said with my sublimest con
tempt--" will you do me the justice to hear me
seriously , and candidly." Mrs. Stowe evidently
wants to keep up the excitement. She wants
to have her forthcoming book elaborately dis
cussed bythe press. She denies a hearing to
her critics ; but she demands a full hearing from
them. She will scarcely find the American
press disposed to grant this unreasonable re
quest. The impertinent way in which it is
prefaced, and the over-dose of this Stowe-
Byron business, already administered, will
combine to make the American people and,
the American press' very unwilling to do much
for this latest venture of Mrs. Stowe.
Mrs. Stowe's high-flown denial that her
Byron fable is a literary venture is too much
overdone to deceive anybody but herself. A
womak who has succeeded in persuading her
self that it was her duty to dig up a foul
scandal,—in all human probability, a foul false
hood,—and trumpet it in the ears of the de
scendants of the dead poet, can persuade her
self of almost anything else. But she will
bring very few readers to her way of thinking.
; The . literary speculation is self-evident, at
i iiiiiii . step. The first article was produced
simultaneously in America and England, in a
' way that showed that Mrs. Stowe had looked
out for the best bidders, and her forth-coming
book is heralded by its introductory chapter
which we publish to-day. The thing is got up
" to make money, and may prove profitable,
) 114
though it may be reasonably hoped that the
moral tone of the. American people is strong
nough to reject any further doses of this
useous stuff. Possibly they may do Mrs.
iiiwe "one act of justice," and of all her ugly
cbitpterli, " read not one."
..:, . ,
• Mrs._
Stovre and her brother, Mr: Beecher,
run their tilts against public sentiment under
i the era.nd idea that they are set so high above
the common herd of intelligent, good men and
women in this country, that whatever they do
.4 or say will be received as the highest law and
71i
truth. . The idea is a good deal more grand
„4,tban real, and both Mr. Beecher and Mrs.
4: t'lowe would do well if they could divest them

exercisg of the authority of the tourtB; it will
be ready to proceed to further violence. The

couragement to fresh deeds of outlawry, and
will dishearten those who have striven bravely
and honestly to bring offenders to justice. They
impunity with which 'the revenue
„taws, have
been violated hitherto is disgraceful, and it has
inflicted a tremendous loss upon 'the coon st at
large and upon conscientious business
it. is of the highest importance that Illese
men should be protected,. that to c
payers should have - their . burdens
lightened by faithful collection of , the
revenue, and that the fearful demoralization
which this persistent villainy bas caused in the
community should be checked. We believe
that President Grant desires these reSults, and
the record of his, administration proves his
ability to secure them. The pardon of Mount,
joy will retard the good work in this city ? and
place dishonesty at a premium. When promi
nent men demand this thing of the President,-
he ought, not to refuse the reettest;but to -
suspect tlie - honesty of these, who make it.
Instead of pardons in such ' cases, we badly
need the infliction of mr. konntjoy'S, punish
'meat upon some of his collcegues.
TWILICO WOMEN'S BOARDIII4I HOME.
It is nearly four 'years a few Young
ladies of Philadelphia, 'Commenced the quiet,
but most valuable charity of the "Bearding
Home for Young Women," now established
and . in successful operation at 14:3:3 Lombard
street. The young ladies-. who' -founded this
excellent institutiOnhave found in the enjoy
ments and privileges,which *ealtb .arid social
position have given them, the incentive to a
pure benevolence in extending to their le6s for
tunate sisters that sympathy and aid which they
need, while struggling to support :thews, elves
decently and earn honest livelihoods by their
own industry. ! ,
The "Boarding Home " is only a small in
stitution, accommodating. but
.- twenty-Ave
young women; but it has acconiplished an .in
calculable amount of good for its inmates, and
only needs that more extended support which
it deserves at the hands of the people of Phila
delphia, to enlarge its operations, and confer
the . same benefits upon those whom It is now
continually compelled to turn away, disap
pointed and disheartened, from its doors.
The object of the "Boarding Home" is to
furnish a permanent, comfortable, safe and
respectable home to young women employed
in the shops and factories of , Philadelphia,
where they may be surrounded by good in
fluences, directed by good advice, encouraged
in all i goOd.purposes, cared for in times ofsick-,
'less, aided when out of employment. , This
noble object has been' nobly 'carried out by
the devoted band of young ladies
who have consecrated their time • and
energy and means to the work ; and it is time.
that what has already been done in this field,
of pure benevolence should be better under
stood and more bountifully sustained by the
good people of Philadelphia, aid that these,
ladies should be furnished with the means to
double or treble their capacity for usefulness.
It is a son . owful thing to have
decent young women, often miserably
under-paid, to be cast adrift to take
care of themselves as best they may in the low,
cheap boarding-houses of a large city. Com
fort, self-respect, too often personal honor,
give way under the hopeless pressure of this
wretched homelessness, and the large-hearted
and wise charity that provides the blessings of
a decent home for tk is hard-worked, poorly
paid class of respectable young women, ought
to receive the heartiest encouragement from
the liberal citizens of Philadelphia.
The charities of Philadelphia, great and
small, are its chief and brightest ornaments,
and wherever they are found to be, as they
almost invariably are, worthy of support, that
'support should be freely given, not only from
motives of human charity, but as a matter of
civic pride.
The Cunard line of European steamers re
ceived from the United States Government last
year for carrying the mails the sum of $187,000.
This is at the rate of 20 cents an ounce or
$7,188 per ton fbr letters, while but half a cent
per pound or $lO per ton is charged for ordi
nary first-class freight by the same steamers;,
tl3at is, the government pays two hundred
times as much for its freight as is paid by pri
vate individuals. - Postmastev:General Cress
well has determined to reform this monstrous
abuse, and he • has offered to the various
steamer companies for carrying the mails, the
payment of $2,150 per ton, which is a very
large price for the easiest kind of. service. This
is done at the present moment betause on the
first Of "Januark the new postal treaty with
Great
, Britain goes into operation by which
postage on letters is reduced to six: • cents per
half ounce. This will pay three cents in the
United States, a penny in England,
and leave one Cent. for " Hie`
steamers. But Mr. Creswell's generous
offer has been refused by some of the compa
nies,. who will have their old rates or nothing,
and as the contracts expire next Saturday,' the
matter will have to be settled attic* or ' else
we Shall •be without European mails.
If the owners of all the lines hold
to their determination, as is likely,
we do not perceive that Mr, Cresswell can do
anything but submit, for the present, and 'one
report, indeed, says that he has done so in the
cases of three lines. But the new contracts
might be limited to six months, and in the
meantime Congress ought to do something to
encourage the establishment of American lines

The New 'York Motto, Market.
(From the Herald of to-flar.]
W.stiltren.tv, Dec. 29.—The demand for money arose
from the calling In of loans by sayings banks and other
institutions and corporations who have to meet the pay:
mont of interest falling due with the advent of the new
year ; Gut it le strongly suspected that the activity was
aggravated by artificial influences for the purpose of
assisting tke speculative movements in stocks. The
time for a brief "bear" attack seems to have been
well chosen, and the market is quite sensitive
to outside pressure. However, it is the general
impression that the stringency cannot last over the
middle of next week, by which time the money now in
motion will have settled hack again into beak. Again
the Government will disburse nearly three and is half
millions of cnrrency before the end of the week in pay
ment of bonds purchased yesterday and to be purchased'
to-day. As it was,the general rate on call was seven per
cent. gold, hot the exceptions were tente frequent at
seven,currency, which was thereto among the Gkivern. ,
mein dealers. After the •closo of banking hours some
tardy borrowers were compelled to pay small commis
sinus in addition to the legal rate.
The same causes were also operative for a decline in
gold, which sold down to' holders being - discour4
aged by the high carrying rate, and selling rather than
keep over under the adverse state of the money market.
The highest price was 120. and the great bulk of sales
took pee at the Intermediate figure.. The market was •
dull, but strong, at the lower quotations. ' Here, as in
.the stock market. there was a good deal of buying to ,
cover outstanding speculative sales. For , carrying the
rate ranged from seven per cent. to 'the same 'figure la c
gold and to 1-324 of one per cent. per diem. The last re-:
corded rate was sovenAnid•
The Government bought two milliontrof bonds: to. be
held subject to the' action of G.ceagress. The offerings
comprised a total of only two and a half millions. .which
fact stun the previously drooping market. and
prices at the afternoon board wail at the highest of the
day. Later the market again went off n oder the activity
it, money and in sympathy with the general decline in
gold and stocks - . The Government will buy another
million of bends to-day; which Instalment will be for
the sinking fund. ' • • •

An order wasgranted this morning in the

lows the murderer Real a new trial, to be held
in the Court of Appeals. This order is ba.sed
on the fact that the stenographer of the court

Mr. Thiirnton'i Itecall—A. 'Untold
(Special Despatch to the Phila. Evening Bulletin.]
Wasntworox, Dec. 30.—The , statement has
been telegraphed from here that Edward
Thornton, the British Minister, is coon to be
recalled, and a new ambassador is to be ap
pointed in his place, clothed with ample au
thority to settle the Alabama claims." After
careful inquiry your correspondent is enabled
to say,upon the best possible authority,that Mr.
'Thornton will undoubtedly remain in his
present , rltion until the Alabama question is
family osed or, and that two (and possibly
three) of. the most learned lawyers in England
In international law will be sent here as coun
sel pending the settlement of this matter.
Sr. Loots, Dec. 30.—The total lons by liras in
this city, from Jan. Ist to Nov. 27, was $641,-
770. Insurance, $467,370.
John G. Walker, the gentlenftuf baying in
charge the Chinese emigrants, in a communi
cation to the Republican, sans:—" A marked
characteristic of the Mongolian race is suspl
don-a want of confidence.
"This tendency can only be combatted
through a strict adherence to trtith and coin
pliance with promises. There islittle prospect
at present that John will trespass upon the
domain of Saanbo to: any, serious eitent.
Those who have held out hopes of procuring
very cheap labor by importing it from the
shores of tern Asia, are, I think, mistaken:
in theirconclusions.
"From one end of China to the other the
value of labor in America, the California stan
dard, is well known. Although labor in
China is very cheap, able-bodied men will not
engage to expatriate themselves for a series of
years, except on condition of receiving such
high wages as will enable them to return
home in comparative affluence. I am con
fident no reliance can be placed upon obtain
ing and retaining Chinese laborers for agricul
tural work, except at the wages usual in the
country where the labor is performed ; and
much more is this the case for railroad labor."
Mr. Walker believes, however, that a con-
siderable number of excellent laborers may'
be found In California at from $2O to $2B per
month, they to find themselves, or $l7 to S'l9
and found.

The gold market was heavy at the opening,

.At this point the demand sprung up for cover
lag aloft contracts; and some 'corporations
having gold interest to pay in January also
bought freely. This caused a rally to 1201., but
was succeeded by a decline to 1.1.9. •
Foreign exchange is quiet at 103,i for prime
