PUBLIC MORALS. One of the oldest and most respected mem bers of, the, Bar remarked, last evening, that the crowd of legal gentlemen assembled in the SupremO:Couft Room, yesterday, was almost guilty- of the indiscretion of an outburst of ap plause at the conclusion of Judge Shars wood's able discussion of the case of James tiQre is Zeliweiss. The the Supreme ()mixt on this important question, involving s - one of the fundamental principles of AineriCan society, has heen universally read, and its points are so clearly 'stated that it needs no furtAey elucidation. It is the judgment of our highest tribunal upon a question of ' pal* 'corals of the deepest inmortince, 'and it is a judgment before which every good citizen will boob: with more than ordinary respect. Clearly recognizing those great principles of religious liberty upon which this Republic is baseiktheSupreme Court declares that the laws and institutions of this State are built ou theLfoundation of reverence for Christianity." It &hies forward, in Its highest attribute of pa renWitiia to 'preserve that happy mean be tweet! the tendencies toward superstition and licentiousness "which Will most conduce to the true interests of society." It denies that there is any'" valid charitable use" in a devise whose purpose is to "rob men of faith and hope, if nOli of charity itself." It asserts that "it must certainly be considered as well settled that the religion revealed in the Bible is not to be openly reviled, ridiculed, or blasphemed, to the annoy ance of sincere believers, who compoe, the great mass of the good people of the Common wealth." The Supreme Court "can conceive of nothing so likely—so sure, indeed, to pro duce these consequences, as a hall desecrated in perpetuity for the free discussion of re ligion, politics, etc., underthe direction and ad ministration of a society of infidels." Judge Sharswood concluded this iMportant opinion in the strong language of Judge Dun can; Indeed, I would go fprther, and adopt the sentiment and langitage. of Mr. Justice puncan in the case just referred to: ' It would prove a nursery of vice, a school of prepara tion:to qualify young men for the gallows and young women for the brothel, and there is not a skeptic of decent manners and good morals who would not consider such a debating club as a common nuisance and disgrace to the city.'" There is nothing that can .be called "cane' in all this. It has nothing about it of narrew ness or bigotry. It is the broad, liberal view of the masses of the. American people, based upon principles which can only be disturbed to the fatal injury of the whole fabric of Ameri can society. All human society involVes the idea of individual - concession of various kinds, and American society certainly demands the assertion of those• general principles of rever ence for revealed religion so ably laid down in this most admirable opinion. While the Supreme Court was thus disi - x..siro. of modern licentiousness in one a its forms, the , Court of Quarter Sessions was doing the same good work. It was something mare than the natural iulluence of Mr. KEirore's five-hour; speech that induced the jury to convict Landis for the sale of obscene literature. It was me assertion of the sarne principle that inspires Judge Sharswood's opinion, and it is well for the great cause of public morals, that, from the Supreme' Court of the State down to the miscellaneous jury of the lowest criminal court. a sound judgment prevails, which tends to pre serve our free institutions from the corrupting influences of infidelity, vice and immorality. MAYOR FOX AND THE FIREMEN Mr. Fox comes to the rescue of the Volun teer Fire Department, in a veto message, which, while it is very evenly divided between "wind and water," is not likely to interpose any serious hindrance to the reform which is now so generally demanded by the, people of Philadelphia. The Mayor's views on the sub ject of the Fire Department are singularly mixed, and the nimbleness with which Ms Honor shifts his balancing pole, as he skips over the tight-rope of public opinion, is worthy of a• younger and a shrewder man. Ile says that the "efficiency" of the Volunteer Depart- - ments ." cannot be questioned." That is a pose for the"boys." In the next breath he says that at times "jealousy degenerates into strife and enmity exists, their usefulness is Un paired, and they become the actors in terrible and disgraceful outrages and disorders, the fre-' quentirecurrence of .which has brought disre pute npon the whole department, and has turned the attention of the moral and law abiding citizens to the expediency of a substitute for the present system." That is a pirouette for the public. Be confesses that 'there are too many hose companies. That is a pigeon-wing fig the parquette. lie begs Councils to continue the appropriation to them. That is a bow to the galleries. Ile draws a touching .picture of "these light machines'' of " undoubted use fulness,"—say the Moya'," or the Fame, for instance,—" easily drawn," (by two or three hundred shrieking men and boys On a tine Sero , ay aft. !moon) and peculiarly adapted to tie' , xtiucuishmentof small or " fires. L is a flight of poetry which speaks well for nature of our Chief Magistrate. e shall expect Mayor Fox to send hi a plan L r reforming the lire alarms, so that light hose -111,.,geL, can run to the "small or trilling" fires, strainers could be. reserved for large (.(q Li.gn,tions. A portable Pyrometer can tio 1 . 4 a u be invented by Mr. Fox,—for his in- N. VIII 4' .4:IIiLIS is of no common order,—which indicate whether a fire is going to be a get o,:or small one, and there' we have it once. There is one proposition in this two-sided message of Mr. Fox's which has a serious as poet,.and needs explanation. The • Mayor tbroWs out thO suggestion that, as the appro.- • priation has been withdrawn from these hose companies,it would be inconsistent and illiberal to ask them to continue 'their services, or exercise tog/ supeYrision" over them. It is to be presumed that Councils do nut wish them to continue their services. The action of Councils is based upon the clearly-expressed principle that they are entirely superfluous. But Mr. Fez goes a little too far in his subservience to these unnecessary fire companies, when he 'suggests that they may do as they please, exempt from the exercise of that supervision which it is the duty of Councils to maintain over them. This is reform with a vengeance, mid shows that Mayor Fax's ruling passion f,n• popularity with any. class that, may contribute any support to him in his future..aspirations occasionally runs away with,him. remains to be seen whether Councils have the nerve to forward this great reform in spite (ff the' Mayor's coalithin with the tabooed com panies. We believe that they will. The lObby t4iat will throng the galleries of Council Chain-. hers may be threatening and noisy and present an appearance of force ; but Coun cils • cannot fail • to recognize the fact that back of this turbulent foreground lies the great, quiet mass of pUblic ,senti . went, trained; by years of education, to the Coovietion - flail Philadelphia - is - behind - the world in this important matter, and that, with out much distinction' of party, the people ,de= wand the reform the initial step of which Mr. . Fox so strenuously opposes.' If the peinociacy 'desires to make -the goes tion of a Paid Fire Department a party issue, We are iinite ready to accept it: • The Republi , can party can lose nothingin such a cOntest. The position of Mr. FoX and of the Democratic members of Councils indicates that such is their desire. liy all means, if they wish it, they should be gratified. The Paid Fire Depart ment is a reform which has no proper political significance about it ; but if the Democracy chooses to throw itself across the track, we can only say, "Look out for the Locomo- THE VIRGINIA TROUBLE. It seems to us that the differences of opinion existing between honest Republicans in Con gress upon the ,question of the adMission of Virginia might be settled by obtaining an answer to a single query : has Virginia com plied with the reconstruction regulations es tablished by Congress for her guidance? if she has obeyed the law, there ought to be no hesitation in accepting her application; if she has evaded any of its provisions for any reason whatever, she should be excluded until the conditions of Elie act of Congress arelultilletth . The impression- that prevails . among:ntell q ini formed Republicans here, is that Virginia lias not.made her title clear to a place in the Union.' We will not attempt now to discuss the excel- lence or advisability of the reconstruction laws; the fact is that they exist, and if they are not nonsensical and unjust, their liberal acceptance should he a necessary condition of admission in the case of every rebel State. The States already admitted have been compelled to strict obedience to their provisions, and it wonld bo extremely unfair to make an exception in the ease of Virginia. Those laws make a man who cannot take the test oath ineligible to a State. Legislature. When the Virginia election was held, these enactments being in force, num- . hers of rebels were chosen; and when the Legislature met . for the pur pose of organization, it was ascertained that they could not take. the oath. We do not wceive upon what reasonable ground it can be urged that this Legiskture Was a legal body, under, the circumstances. But these men ignored the existence of the test oath, and pro ceeded to elect Senators and to ratify the Fif teenth Constitutional Amendment, as if there were no such thing as reeionstmr - tion ans. if Ceriz-esis choces; ria:cepa this result- it has power to do so; Int it w0u4,1 bet:,:to assert , that the Virc , rji..r , .; pro•iisions of tl..e !;.-x-.

In some of the Northern States where ratidintion was made in un- . doubted , conformity with the law and in ac cordance with the popular desire, this very thing-has been done ; and there is grave. reason to believe that in a State,. the Legislature and many of the people of which are opposed to the amendment, and accepted it only Os a means of attaining restoration, the same policy would be pursued when that end was reached.. And in this case they might use with some degree of justice the argument advanced by us against their admission now; that there is at least a doubt of the authority of the body which ac cepted the amendment in the, name of the State.' It seems to us, then, that Congress, in order to prevent such treachery and to pro tect the loyal people of the State, must do one of two things: either compel the Virginians to give some absolute security against the re call of the ratification, or else to repudiate the rebel element in the Legislature, and order new elections in the districts represented by rebels, so that the rebel sympathizers will be forced to choose loyal men, as they should have done in the first place, and as Congress in tended to have them do. The latter policy was advocated earnestly by radical RePubliCan pa pers when the result of the election became apparent, and we still incline to believe that it is the better one. AND ills OPERA. The harsh criticisms of the Italian opera company which have induced Mr.'Maretzek to issue a manifesto against the newspapers that have published them, seem to us to be very unjust. it cannot be denied that ,Maretzek's company is not complete in all its depart ments. When Miss Kellogg has not appeared, there has not been any really first-rate soprano, and at no time have we had even a moderately good contralto or basso singer. Mr. Maretzek knows this as well as anybody, and as he has never made any assertions to the contrary, he has aright to feel aggrieved that he is charged with falsehood and deception. But he has presented night after night two of the best artists upon the lyric stage ; Lefraue, a .noble' tenor, whose magnificent singing and acting have never been surpassed in this tCeun t and Bonconi, who deserves more °titbit siasticliraise than he has ever received in this ay. In addition to, these, Miss kellogg.has appeared twice, and will take part in a third opera to-morrow. The orchestra and chorus ate good, and their performance throughout the entire season has been very much above the average. This is about as much as the public have to expect from a manager who charges but a thdlar for a single admission, and reserves, a seat for the whole fourteen performances for fifteen dollars. it is quite impossible that any manager should do any better for the same sum. If Mr. Maretzek had engaged Miss Kellogg or any other costly soprano, and tilled all the departments of his company with lhst rale artists, he would have been compelled to charge two and a half or three dollars a ticket, and then nobody would have gone. As it is, every man gets his money's THE^ DAILY EVENING ITLI,FATI.N-PHILADELPHIA, FRIDAY, JANUARY 14,1870. math; and nobody has a riglft. to 'grumble. As far as we knOw, every promise made by Hr. Marelzek has been fulfilled honestly, anth.e.om talon jtittiz.'e demands he should have proper credit fur his fairness. The General Superintendent of Construction of the Union Pacific Railroad makes au . in teresting and novel statement in regard to the liability of snow blOckitdes 'along the line of that road. Superintendent Reed asserts, as a matter of personal observation, anti experience; that there is no cattBi) for unusual obstructions from snow, Other than those incident to all roads in snowy latitudes. The fact that heavy' snow storms are nnkeammon to the:region 'tra versed by the Union Pacific road is accounted for bY the general dryness of the: atmosphere, and the, intervention of the high ranges Of ail Sierra NeVada • upon which, and the higljer ranges of the Rocky Mountains, the heavy snow and rain storms appear to expend them= selves: Reed makes the very remarkable state - - latent that,histead of a,preyaience Of n gales in the mountain country of Wyoming, the com pany has been compelled to abandon its wind mills, erected for pumping at the water-sta tions, there not being wind enough to drive them. The superintendent does not explain this phenomenon, and we are at, a loss to sug gest ,any satisfactory theory for its support. All who have traveled through the Black Hills have had their attention arrested by what ap pear to be the effects of strong winds, wearing away the rocky ridges and surfaces of the hills, and carving them into picturesque and fantastic shapes, until the traveler duds himself passing through a region of terraces, castles and ruins which look as ,if they had been wrought out by some extinct race of giants, but which have hitherto been attributed to the action of the winter,,blasts, ranging un checked over the thousand miles of prairie, until they are dashed into atmospheric break ers among thepasses and canons of the Black Hills.. It; as Stiperintendent Reed reports, the Union Pacific has abandoned its wind-mills for want'ef power, it either upsets the old theory of the prevalence of high, winds in the mountain ranges of the .Far West, or it proves that The road has been so located as to cross the Black Hills through their most sheltered pass. It is certainly grad tifying to know that; so far as the Union Pacific road is concerned, travelers have no more tolear from storms of snow . or wind than is to he encountered on any road in other portions of the conntry. It is true that the distances between supply -stations on the Pacific,road are, as yet, much greater than in the populated parts of the country; but there is no difficulty in furnishing the passenger trains with ample supplies of fuel and food to enable them to endure any such incldental snow blockade as is common to all winter travel in Northern latitudes. The discharge of Der. Ureorge Dolly by Judge Cad walader, yesterday, cannot but have an im portant bearing upon future operations under the internal revenue laws. The house of which Mr. Doll is the 'head imports fancy goods in large quantities. He was charged with not having made full returns of his income, and the Assessor of his district demanded his ac count books for examination. • Mr. Doll refused to give them up, and was put' tinder. arrest. Yesterday the case was argued by his counsel, and et the close, Judge Cadwalader dis :_:z<rged Mr. Poll. The points made by the counsel were that several 'clauses of the act of June :30, 18414, are unconstitutional. But they were all printed in yesterday's .13uL- Limx, and they need not now •he reeapitu--' lated. But the important point is that asses sors have no tight to compel a citizen who has made his income return, to give up his books to be overhauledaly persons employed by assessors. . There have been many cases in which parties have allowed this inquisition of their _private business, and been subjected to much insolence and annoyance. Mr. Doll is entitled to the thanliS of 'all good citizens tdr the manly stand he took, and the decision of the Court in his case will have the effect of putting a stop to a grossly outrageous.practice. isc:rbe r The Pall Mall Gazelle informs its readers that President Grant began life as a tanner. The general impression en this side of the water is that he " began life" as a graduate of` West Point and an officer in the United States army. The tanning business was an incident of the after-life .of President Grant, which did net occur until ten years ago. The blunder of the Pall Nall Gaztte justifie's Mark Twain's prediction that the Encyclopedia for A. D. 58US, will probably say : " Uriah S. (or Z.) Graunt—popular poet of ancient times in the Aztec provinces of the United States of British America. Sonic authors say flourished about A. D. 742"; but, the learned Ah-ah Foo-foo states that he.was a cotemporary of Scharkspyre, the English poet, and flourished about A. D. 1325, some three centuries after the Trojan war instead of before it. Ile wrote Rock me to Sleep, gother':" A letter to Select Councilman' William F..

On the 2:ld a terrine gale was experienced from 'the S. S. W., with a heavy cross sea, :in which the ship labored heatily, and which caused her to leak. On the 24th, the wind going into the N.

Dres,den. In no foreign city, except it be Paris or Rome, can so many of our countrymen be found. You 'meet them everywhere—iu the street, the school, the gallery, , the concert room, the theatre. They form a considerable element of the ponulation of the city. and without them the btatineSs of .the city would sadly diminish.- Indeed, the Dresden of to day may be sai,t to lice 'from foreigners, and of these the American-1 form a great majority. As- in the larger cities at home, they are formed into sets anti cliques awl it is only on the occasion of the celebration of some na tional festival, as the late Thanksgiving re union, or on Sunda% s, that one sees them to wilier or comparatively so. There are in Dresden your in' in which the se'rvices are conducted in our language, in three ambit:li the audieuce are either wholly or in large part American. This tact' may seem strange when it is added that three of the four churchas are. of one denomination', Episcopalian. But elifireh attendance is ruled by two circumstances. Is the church ritua listic? and by whom is the preacher sent, or to put the latter iu the form most recognizable to one who has tarried here. for %A twill is espf cial prayer offered The Ewlish church is high and prays for the King of Ilaxony, the Queen of England -and all others in au thority," and is attended by few.Amerivans. The English-American is' low church, prays for the King, Queen Victoria, President Grant. and the rest, and has a munber'of American worshippers. The American church puts Queen Victoria among "the rest," and is wholly composed of our countrymen—an audience of three hun dred. - .The only not ritualistic church is tinder Scotch auspices—thus a Presbyterian service, but by far the greatest number of its attend ants are of our nationality. The pastor is a young t , talented, earnest Scotchnian, the oppo site of our conception of a hard, knotty Scot, so far its Spirituality is concerned—a man Whom it does one good to listen to. Not most unim portant of the Sunday service is that of the American Sunday School, to the superin tendency of which onr good Consul, Colonel Irish, has just, been appointed. It is under the auspices of no sect, but in its Bible class.

The treaty with China which has lately been concluded at Pekin by the Austrian lega tion, while by a general article it secures every privilege which has been ceded or may be ceded to the most favored nation, has some peculiarities worthy of notice. as representing the results of experience in modifying the re lations of foreign nations with the , Chinese empire. The right to build houses of worship, hospitals, Ztc. in all the open ports and towns has been amply conceded. The Court of Rome expected, through the Austrian .influence, to obtain further : concessions for the Catholic converts, and great indignation has been ex pressed in some of the 'Papal newspapers, that the ties which bind Austria to Rome have been farther loosened or broken in China, when they ought to have been strengthened ; but the fact thus recognized in the remotest East is but a confirmation of Similar facts exhibited nearer home. ,•It is a satisfaCtion withal.

Pennsylvania. liOnssf.---,lminediately after the refilling. of the journal the House renewed the considera tion of the Virginia bill. r. Fitch expressed his regret that Virginia had not been admitted to political equality In the Union at the same time a 9 Georgia. He believed that it would have been better for Vir ginia,••better for the country, and better for the Republican party. He was quite assured that no act could be done so hurtful to the Republican party, so injurious to the best in terests of the whole country, and so especially damaging to the speedy and honest recon struction of the South as to exact now from Virginia any other political centii dons than' those prescribed by the act of April last. The , war had been waged to build up, not to demolish; to protect, not todastroy ; to disenthral, not to disfranchise. If, they should give to Simulated apprehensions and to the spleen of disappointed politicians such legislation as was embraced in the bill, in violation of the implied compact % in excess of previons conditions and not necessary for any high purpose whatever, this would not be endorsed by thopeople. The compact of April last Was to the effect that if Virginia. would pro vide, in her State constitution for giving colored men the right to hold office, she would. be adniitted.. She had fultilled.that condition, and now it was proposed to admit her . with a , fundamental condition that sho would not change,er alter the Constitution in those particulars. Did not gentlemen on the Re publican ffide of the House sefi that they were measurably giving away their position, that they Were surrendering the fortress to the enemy, when they admitted that Virginia could change her organic laiv by disfran chising her colored ,citizens. He ' ap pealed to his own side .of the louse to be logical if not magnanimous, wise if not confiding. Why should they insult and harass and worry and destroy that unhappy Com.: monwealth? What had she dene to deserve such treatment? She Was • a State that had given four Presidents to the Republic, that bad entered with heSitation into the conspiracy to destroy .the G over n ment, and whose People had been punished as never people bad beeri punished for their folly, and their crimes. • Shorn: of 'raiment, de-' spairing, she stood at the door of the Capitol, meekly asking—not to shape the policy of the country, not to 'fill the capital with her sons and retainers—but for the right to rule herself and to shape her own local laws. For himself he would not " laugh at her' calamity nor mock when her fear corneal," Republican though he was. She was a part 0.7 his country and . lie would not insult her sorrow. 'On the contrary he could find no words for her but those of wel come. and confidence and cheer. , • Mr. Upson, 'A member of the Iteconstrue tion connoittee, stated that he bad concurred in reporting the bill froth the committee, and that he would vote for its passage, because he believed that all its provisions were necessary, reasonable and Mr. Hawley supported the bill. and would even exact further conditions froM Virginia if his vote could secure them. 3lr. Aspir said he had been originally in fa,- Vor of admitting Virginia without conditions, but he was now induced to, believe that the interest:4'nd liberties of the whole people of that State 'were not safe if She were admitted withotit conditions. 1-to would support this' bill, and if the conditions were struck out he would vote against the admission of Virginia. HcnsoN,January 14.—The Suit for slander, instituted by Mrs. Mary Ann Rivers against her father, Henry G.

M. to-day, the Ohio Senate adopted a resolution ratify ing the Fifteenth Amenthnent, by a vote of 19 to 18. 31. Drouyn de Lhuys gave some interesting information concerning French wines, "the other day, at the opening of the International Wine-Growers' Congress, at Beaune, of which he was chosen President. He said the culti vation of the vine now extends over seventy nine French Deportthents t producing nearly 71,0(10,000 hectolitres of wine, which, at the average price of 21 franus perliectolitre, repre sents a total value of 1,000,000,000 francs. 11 we •calculate the .expenditure of each wine ,nliwer's family, consisting ou the average of tour persons, at 1,000 francs a year, it will be found that HAS branch of industry alone satis fies the requirements of 1,000,000 families or 6,5'00,000 of the population. To this number should he added about 2,000,000 carters and traders, all of whom participate in the profits. It may, therefore, be stated without exaggera tion that the cultivation of the vine feeds-ono fifth of the population of France, and pre duces a revenue equal to one-fourth of the value of the agricultural produce of the coun try. M. Drouyn de Lhuys also stated that the ground on which the vine is cultivated is generally useless for any — other purpose and that Vines will grow ou all kinds of soil. At Cape Breton it grows on the quartzifurous sand of the climes; to 31 cdoc, on sand mixed with pebbles; in Anjou, on clay; in Cham pagne, on chalk. The wine known as Her mitap, is produced from vines growin g , on granite reeks, and the best vineyards of Bur gundy are on limestone cliffs and marshy ground. fill E W ESTERN SAVING 1 4 UND 8001-1 1 ET 1 .--Oilice SW. corner WALNUT and TENTH rte ,t, 111 , ..rp, , rateal February 2, 1647.

I Mr. Ward, a member of the Reconstruction ComMittee referred to the singular' position in Whiclithe , bill was plated :by the action of the gentleman from Illinois (Mr.:FarnsWorth), who had been deputed by the committee as its organ' to present the bill, to.; the: House. Be was ,surprised to , hear the oppo sition made by that gentleman to the provisions imposing an oath. Upon the State officers. The Committee had reported the bill in gnod•faith, with the understanding that the gentleman from Illinois Should de; fend it in the House. If that gentleman can not conscientiously do so, he should have passed it over to some other gentleman on the Committtee, for instance, Mr.. Beaman, who would defend it and press itte a Vote. Mr. Farnsworth said that hat had pursued in the House the course 'Which: lie 'had" in timated in the committee that he should, to wit: advocate the bill with the exception of the provision in regard to the oath. It seemed to him that the members of the Committee who had thus far addressed the House, except Mr. Upson, had not adVocated the bill as much as he had. When the gentle man from Wisconsin (Mr. Paine) was address ing the House, Mr Farnsworth had been in outred of as,to which side that . gentleman was on, and after a careful , examination of his speech since, ho was -at a loss : to determine whether the speech w.a in favor of the bill or against it. . , CURT.ALIV MATERIALS. 1870.
