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

inia to her old pc:sition. will no; followed
instantly by rep.:;dra• .—ion of. her ralifion. of
the amendment. 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

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.

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':"

solution, all . such inquiries became interesting,
and the points made by the writer of the letter
are worthy of serious consideration.

On the 2:ld a terrine gale was experienced
from 'the S. S. W., with a heavy cross

which caused her to leak. On the 24th,
the wind going into the N. W,, and the

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.

Austrian Treaty with China.
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. "sayS'lin English paper;
that the Austrian Government—less disturbed
by domestic attain—has been able to extend
its views to commercial objects abroad, and

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.

CO ' Ll: 31 It US, Jan. 14.—At 11.:l0 A. 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.

B 0 ult 7 Conti npo from Fimrtl), Edition. 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.
