A NEW POST OFFICE.
The time has fttily come for, the United
States. Government to give Philadelphia a Post
*Me building commensurate with the present
and prospective postal business of this city. It
nerds no demonstration to establish the fact
that the' present building is :miserably insuffi
cient. > The temporary addition now being
made en the - east side of the Post.offiee -
sertea'present purpose; and give partial ae
ronimodat ion t o the increased number of clerks
smile necessary by the consolidation of the
sub-post-offices. But this addition, the best
dint inuld be had at present, is not sightly, in
anarchitectural point of view . ; is inconvenient,
fittn its obstruction, of the free passage be
een the Post-oflice and the Custom House;
and is insufficient to meet the growing wants
of: the, (Ike.
A. few facts and figures will serve to suggest
the : present and the future requirements of the
Philadelphia Post-office. Twenty tons of mail
matter are handled every day. 125,000 letters
pass through the office daily. Nearly three
hintlied clerks and carriers are required for
thn 'service. Last year the carriers delivered
14,760,000 letters and 3,500,000 newspapers,
and collected 12,500,000 letters and 1,250,000
newspapers. In the Money Order department
there were. issued 17,595 orders for $382,950 83,
andTaill 76,200 orders for $1,209,472 70. In
the Registry departuient, 39,108 letters were
sent, and 37,085 received, this branch •of the
service being merely in its infancy.
llostbn and New York have both secured
Tost-Olftee bnikling,s suitable for the cenvenient,..
rapid and correct transaction of business, and
'Philadelphia has the same' imperative need for
a larger and better building. For one-half of
the, amount expended upon the Boston Post,
C.ffice, and for one-third or one-fourth of that
to, be expended on the New York office, the
Government can erect such a building in Phila
delphia, as it. pow requires for any proper ac
commodation of its business. For• about one
million dollars, the Government can secure the
entire block r bounded by the present Post;-
Office, ' Chestnut, ' Fifth - and Library
streets, and put up 'a suitable : build- •
iug ler the business of the Government,
apart from the revenue service. The Post
stffieerthe United States Courts and their ae
eompanying offices, the Pension Agencies, ,
ilie4rmy and Navy Pay DepartmentS, and
other branches of the GoVernmene service
could all be amply provided for in such a build
ing as could be economically erected on this
nit& '• • •
It may be assumed at the out-set that the
proposition to appropriate a million dollarg to
Philadelphia for a Post-office will be the signal
fora prompt opposition. This has long been the
rule whenever Philadelphia - has needed. Gov
ernment accommodation requiring any expen
diture of money. While there is no city in the
Union that has done as much gratuitous service
io ihe government in its hours of need, there is
a strange jealousy indulged in by some sections
of the country toward every measure that 0
suggested for the advantage of Philadelphia, or
for the accommodation of the Government at
this point. When Philadelphia tendered the
munificent gift of League Island to the Govern
ment, it required years of earnest labor to force
the free gift upon the acceptance of Congress,
and now when appropriations and legislation
are asked, to make the gift available for the
uses of the Navy, they are bitterly opposed, ap
parently on no better ground than that if • a
preconceived desire and determination to re
fuse everything to Philadelphia that can poi
sibly be withheld.
The League Island bill is so palpably seusi
ble and just that it will succeed, despite this
habitual opposition. It , has the ap
proyal of the President, the Secre
tary of the Navy, the whole Naval
Committee, and the whole Pennsylvania dele
gation. And the proposition to give Phila
delphia a proper Post-office, while it may ex
pect to encounter the same resistance, will
have the. same strong support, and will appeal
too strongly to the good sense of the majority
of Congress to be defeated by any petty, sec
tional jealousy. But it is to be hoped that this
greatly-needed improvement will not share the
dilatory experiences of League Island. Within
the present year, the . Government ought 'to be
at work upon the new. Post-office. It cer
tainly will not be built a single day sooner
than it will be wanted.
OCEAN CABLE MONOPOLIES.
It would be well for Mr. Fish to introduce
to his international cable convention a propo
sition that all governments granting privileges
, to cable companies shall reserve the right to
inteifeie when sueh companies combine against
the public. Mr. Sumner's bill, read in the
Senate yesterday,will, if it is passed, express the
determination of the United States upon the
subject; but there ought to be concerted action
upon the part of all the nations interested.
When the first Atlantic Cable was laid an ex- .
orbitaut tariff was submitted to, cheerfully, be
cause the experiu.ent was a costly one, very
heavy losses having been sustained, and simple
justice seemed to demand that those who had
suffered and toiled to achieve such magnificent
success deserved ample remuneration. But
subsequent cable companies have the benefit
of their experience, with none of their risk ;
and there is a general desire in.. this country
and in Europe to encourage such organizations
so that there may be lively competition and a
eenSeqnent, retinetion'of the'Mtes. But it ap
pears now that the tendency is to continue the
monopoly by uniting the companies. A com
bination has already been formed ; by the
Owners of the existing cables, by which they
are to help each other, divide the business and
receipts and keep up he rates. To this combi-
Lion future companies will doubtless become
parties, and we shall have the entire system of
Atlantic cables controlled by a single greedy
orgaiiizatio'n which will make the people of
the world its victims. The different govern
ments possess the power to prevent this eerious
evil, and •as the companies have their
franchises from the people, it is but
right that the . people, should enj o y a
reciproCal advantage. We Lope therefore that
Mr. Fish will ask the attention of foreign gov
ernments to the matter, and will ,press''upon
the proposed treaty convention the necessity
for seine general legislation in :this direction.
Be can express the sentiment of our people
upon the subject by declaring that such a
monopoly Must be prevented even if we have ,
to preceed to the. extremity ,of recalling every
concession made to the . cable companies.
Further than this, he will give Satisfaction if he
will proceed immediately against the French
cable company, which is one of the parties to
this scheme. That corporation
. not only has
no right to enter into any such contract, but
it ha's no authority for the presence of
its cable upon our shores. The French
government has treated with contemptuous
i Silence Mr. Fish's remonstrance, against the ex- .
elusive grants given to this company, whereby
American cables are excluded from France,
and it is insufferably insolent that the company
should coolly enter into a contract against the
public' interests, as .if its position was strong
enough to enable it to defy this ,government. : '
A demand should now be made thattheFrenck :
monepollsts, besides yielding up their privileges,''
in France, shall repudiate this, bargain with the
other companies. if this is not complied with,
or if immediate attention is not given to the
request, the cable end should. be flung into the
sea. We have reached that point where fur
ther submission to this insolent assumption is
inconsistent with safety and with common
self-respect.
As everybody expected, there is - a very for
midable body of clergymen in the (Ecumeni
cal Council opposed to acceptance of the
dogma of Papal infallibility, and it is quite pos
sible that the doctrine will not receive the
sanction of the Council. If, after a bitter and
violent discussion among the reverend fathers,
it should be accepted by a bare majority, the
result would hardly be productive of harmony
and good feeling in the Church. All the pre
lates who do not believe that the Pepe is in
fallible, and who have declared their infidelity
boldly in the Council, would be compelled to
swallow the doctrine and teach it to their
flocks 1 whlle'the thinking men of the Church—
laymen and, clrgymen—would have to admit
to their own consciences that it is a very
doubtful kind of infallibility that succeeds in
obtaining recognition only after a bard fight
,and by an accidental majority of votes. At
any rate we do not perceiVe why the Pope
should' be so much exercised about the doubt
that hangs over the question.. If he isinfalli
ble, he is infallible whether the Council says so
or not, and he ought to have enough confi
dence in the certainty of , the
,poWer that he
claims to possess, to feel assured that if he
foresees the promulgation of the d Tata it will
undoubtedly be promulgated, and that it is
useless to.fret about it. '
Our. Washington correspondent entertains
the opinion • that the Senate will not pass the
House bill admitting Virginia, without'engraftL .
big upon it certain conditions which will act as
a check upon the disloyal tendencies of the
State Legislature. This morning's report of
the debate .upl the bill indicates the truthful-,
fiess of this ebrijecture, for it shows that there
is a very eamest - opposition in the Senate to the
sentimental policy of Mr. Representative Bing
ham and his supporters in the House. We sin
cerely hope that this opposition will have influ
ence enough to indUce a cautious policy on the
part of the Senate. We do not desire to offer
any obstacle to the admission of Virginia in
accordance with the laws. But the Virginians
have not complied with the strict letter.of the
act of Congress providing for the reorganiza
tion of their State; on the contrary, they have
behaved so , treacherously that we have good
reason to suspect them of a' design to rescind
their ratification of the Fifteenth Amendment
as soon as the State shall have been admitted.
We wish to have some guarantee against that
offence, and.we are glad to perceive that there
is a disposition in the Senate to require it. If
it is possible, such provision should be made by
Congress thai repudiation of the amendment
will be simply impossible. •
The Bedford street missionary. having dis
covered some time ago, that empty stomachs
must be preached to with bread before the
souls of hungry men can be reached with the
gospel; has in operation a system by which he .
feeds hiaflock of outcasts before he makes any
spiritual effort at conversion. The method is
applied with peculiar force in the mission
school, where eighty little dinnerless, children
assemble daily to gain the instruction which
will lift them out of .-the, Wretchedness and
misery in which their parents exist. It is the
task of the missiooary to feed these children,
and to supply them with such clothing as they
need. But his resources, are .not equal to the
demand upon them, and unless benevolent
people in this city will help him, we fear that
his good work will be left in a measure incom
plete. He wants fifteen loaves. of bread . a 'day
for the school children, and as much . second
1 hand clothingshoes particularly—as he can
I procure. There are hundreds of mothers in
this city who have children's cast-off clothing
which will supply this want nicely, and we
appeal to them to answer this cry for help.
I Those who cannot respond in this maliner
may send money to 'the 'Mission Home, for
among the urgent needs of the mission is a
supply of coal.

MUSICAL.
ITALIAN OPEN A
be one of übel•'s most
popular operas. It contains some beainiful
music, but is not dramatically interesting,
and the only female character at all interesting
being a dumb girl, whose action is wholly pan
toninne, it fails to delight an audience as do
several other of its author's works. The per
formance last evening showed marks of hur
ried preparation, and there is not much to say
about it. The noble singing and acting of
Lefranc would redeem almost any perform
ance, otherwise bad. ln the gland duo, and in
the loVely romance of the third act he was
especially line though suffering at times with
hoarseness. Signor Reyna also deserves high
praise for his excellent singing and . very
spirited, intelligent acting in the part of
"Pietro." Mlle. Marie Sand was also most
admirable as " Fenella." Mlle. Canissa was
wholly unsuited to the part of " Elvira." The
choruses were imperfect and the orchestra
was generally too boisterous. Several times
Leframe excited extraordinary enthusiasm,

THE HALTOM! AT TIIE CHESTNUT
—The Oalton - Comic Opera Cotripany Ap
'pearcd at tile Chestnut Street Theatre last
; evening, - after a year's absence from this city,
'and were fatored With an unusually largo
.andience. The performance. included the
:,comic opera, The Prima Donna of a Night,,
and a-musical farce entitled, Terrible Hymen.
Both pieces gave great satisfaction. The
former is a bright, lively drama, with, a slight
.but very amusing plot, full of comical situa
tions, and containing . exceedingly . funny
dialogue. The music with . Which it Is orna
mented is in nice keeping with the spirit of
the text, It is animated, jolly and Oftentimes
beautiful. Miss Susan appeared as the
heroine. 'She is , prettier . than ever,
and her voice has all its old sweetness. She
acted with charming grace and spirit, and at
times excited the enthusiasm Of an audience
'that was determined to he pleased. Mr.
Whiffin gave a very amusing :representation
Of 'the heavy father of the piece. Mr. Whit-
fin is an uncommonly. goOd comic actor, and
he ought to have greater popularity than he
does. Ilis performance in the farce also de
served warm praise. Mr. Kelleher, Miss
'Blanche Calton and Mrs. Fyne Galton Sus
tained the minor parts,. and acquitted thorn-
selves in a very creditable mariner.. This
evening the same pieces will be given, and we
hope the house will be crowded. If the at
tendance last night was an indication of the
size of future audiences, the present engage
ment of the Galtonswili be very successful.
CARL 'WOLF:4OIII4N " MENDELBSOFIN MATINEE."
—Mr. Wolfsobn's matinee in the foyer of the
Acadt my of Music on. Friday afternoon at
tracted such a large audience that we are sure
Mr. Wolfsohn must have felt encouraged to
proceed with a good work which hitherto has
not been properly appreciated. The interpre
tati on*of the selections upon the, programme
by the several artists was characterized by the
same enthusiasm and earnest devotion to the
music which has marked the management of
the preceding concerts. The climax of the
performance, of course, was the trio in C
minor, the strongest composition upon the
programme. The unity of expression,_ the
delicate treatment of the light and shade by
the three artists were very remarkable, and
were enjoyed most heartily by the audience.
Au unusual opportunity is offered; to Mr.
Wo]fsohn in his selections for the present
season by the anner in which he has
arranged for. the interpretation of a new com
poser at every concert. 'Sp - lar he has im
proved the chance and displayed' masterlP
ability. It is probable that his reputation will
have increased materially before the season
closes. On Friday Mr.l-lennig had one of
the novelties upon the programme—the only
one 'of MendelsSohn's "Songs Without
'Words" written for'the violoncello. Of course
it was given by the player in the most artistic
style:" Mr. Kopta, who is now, we are glad to
say, a resident here, gave his solO, Laub's
'Polonaise, With a great deal of vim and spirit.
The next matinee will be peculiarly attractive
froni the fact that' it is to be devoted entirely
"to the music of Chopin. The programme will_
include the rondo for two pianos, and the Im
promptu in G flat. The latter 'composition is
rarely played anywhere, because of its great
difficulty. .

CITIZENW AssoCIATioN FOR THE
OF STREETs AND ROADs.—A meeting
wa' held this afternoon at the Board of Trade
rooms for the purpose of forming a "Citizens'
Association for the Improvenient of Streets
and Romig." The subject has been under con
sideration for some months ,paA by many
prominent and influential citizens. The
oti
pets of the Association are fully set forth in a
circular *MO was is.sued, and which was
publisbed'in - time tici.LiTlN of 'yesterday.
The meeting to-day was largely attended,
and was called to order by WM. Hey Ward
Drayton.
Hon. Eli K. Price was chosen President,and
F.:Alward Shippen and George Gilpin, . Esqs.,
Secretaries.
The-President ? 011 taking the chair, said 'that
be felt honored in being called upon to pre
side over such a body of influential citizens.
Be was not one of the originators of the
movement, but as soon as it was mentioned
to him, he had given it his most corolla' en
dorsement. From his custom of riding, he
had become aware of the deplorable. condi
tion of the streets. The rapid iM
provements made at Fairmount Park
and the Ebeautiful drives there ;have
greatly increased horseback anti carriage
riding, and it is proper that the avenueleading
P
to the ark shall be put in such a condition as
will be the most beneficial teal! of the citizens.
This association is not to interfere in any
manner with the municipal government, but
merely to act in an advisory man
ner. He did not desire this asso
dation to be a part of the, mutti—
cipal government. He had given three
years in the prime of his life
as a Representative in the . State Senate, and
while there had • been instrumental in pro
' posing and having passed the city charter.
It was modeled after the State Government,
and therefore he did not want it marred. This
Association should merely correct errors and
evils existing.
Mr. Shippen, Secretary, then read the fol
lowing, articles of 6 Association, which had
been propared for the consideration of the
meeting :
"Articles of the CitizenslAssociation for the
Improvement of Roads and Streets
The object of this Association shall be to
use all lawful ways and means to secure the
improvement of such laws and ordinances as
shall have relation to the good order and-con
dition of the streets and roadsof Philadelphia,
and to provide such additional legislation as
may be deemed necessary in that behalf.
"The Association shall be composed of those
persons who shall subscribe to these articles,
and who shall pay annually the sum of 645.
"The Association shall hold an annual meet
ing,on the first Monday of February, at which
meeting the Directors shall be elected in the
manner hereinafter provided.
" At the first meeting,twenty-four Directors
shall be chosen by ballot,.eight of whom shall
serve for three years, eight for two years, and
eight for one year; and at each annual
meeting thereafter, eight Directors shall be
chosen to serve fur three yews, or until their,
successors are elected, to till the vacancies oc
casioned by the expiration of the terms of the
retiring Directors. There shall be no voting
by proxy.
he Directors shall annually elect a Presi
dent. and a Treasurer from their own number,
and shall also appoint a Secretary and such
other officers as may be found necessary, who
shall hold their offices during the pleasure of
the. Board, and who shall be paid such com
pensation as may be determined by the Board.
"The Board of bireetors shall have the power
to till vacancies in their own body, and to
make from time to time such rules anciregula
tions as to them shall scent expe..lient for giv
ing effect to the purposeslof the Association,
and shall have the power to collect the annual
dues of members and to disburse the same for
the purposes of the Associatiae,but they shall
not have power to incur liabilities beyond the
amount of itionc4t their de,posal at the time."
t Fair Man Rogers, Esq., said that he was rue
of - the projectors of the movement. The
streets, as ever.) body knows, are in bad
condition, and need repairing very .much.
What was every body's uess so ins to be
nobody's busines, and the intention of this
association is to improve the conditiou of tho
city.. It is not proposed to interfere with any
city officials;but merely to make suggestions,
and these officials will act more efficiently.
when backed by a strong public opinion. This
movement was talked about between fifteen
or twenty gentlemen who have held several
informal meetings at each others' houses, and
these consultations have resulted in the pre
paration of the articles of association just read.
Mr. Drayton declared that the streets are in
an abominable condition in regard to grading
and paving. They are also dirty.; If one de
sires to drive to Germantown now he has to
take one of the passenger railway tracks,
- which is very little better than the roads on
each aide,plit, and then it is impossible to go
at the-legal rate of speed—"six miles per hour
—because you get behind a car or some other
raluw team, and you . can't. turn out -.without
danger ofsmashing your wagon. The object
of this Asseciation is to correet this matter,
land to have the roads putl n good driving or
der. As this Association will have the neces
'nary funds, there can be no oljection to its'
carrying out the purposes for which it is
formed, • •
Wm. Henry Rawl°, Esq., alluded to the
good which this AssOciation can accomplish.
He instanced the very bad condition.of Green
street—the most available road of access to
the Park-west of where the 'lkAcolson naveL
Intent ceases, at Eighteenth street. If aome
- thing is not done hoop every carriage will be.
driven Atom the •streets of the city. He - re 4
fermi to, the condition of the streets of ditler
cut CitieS in Europe, and said that when the
streets of a little unfrequented town of Switz
erland are contrasted with' our own, it MMit
bring a blush of shame to our face. The
speaker gave this movement. his cordial ap
. proval.
EdwardShippen; Esq., said' that the - con- -
F,truction of the streets Of the city is very bad
and needs remedying, The bed for the cobble,
li stones is now made of, ashes and other in
ferior material, and then. again cobble-stones
havegone out of date. The Attention of the
authorities should be called to the necessity Of
having good streets and roads. This Associa
thin does not propose to interfere with or
make any opposition.te the public authorities,
but tO act in harmony. With them. It must be
• understood, however, that the highways must
and shall he properly constructed, be the con
sequences what they may to the authorities.
He believed, however, that there will be no
necessity for a resort toi harsh measures. The
obstructions on thesidewalks,such asgas-boxes
water-boxes, stumps of trees, de., ought also,
to be removed. This Associaion ; totally.
eschews politics; and is made up of gentlemen
of all political parties, combined for the,gene
ral good and welfare of the community. To
carry, out the object properly money will bo
needed, and it is proposed to make a general
• canvass of the city to obtain members, and ho
hoped to see them counted 'by thousands. The
paper had already been signed by quite a
large number of gentlemen.
Jos. T. Thomas, Esq., Col. Wm. S. Lewis
and G. Morgan Eldridge, Esq.; also spoke in
favor of the objects of the meeting.
The articles of association were then
adopted.'
The following Directors were then elected :
For o»ey ear—George C. Carson, E. Spencer
Miller, Edward Shipper]. J. H. B. McClellan,
'

THE VASE • OF VIRGINIA.
•
Soufe of the most radical Congressmen met
this morning to talk over the Virginia ques
tion, and to determine what course ought to
be pursued in case the Senate amends the
Howe bill by adding a section imposing cer
tain conditions. There was entire unanimity
of feeling in agreeing to stand by the Senate
if they should impose conditions, and to make
a strong fight in the House to have that
body recede from its position on this question.
General Butler will take the lead, and oppose
the adnaission of the State without some se
curity for future good. behavior. Mr. Bing
ham will not give up his bill without an earn
est fight. The opponents of the _Home bill
are more sanguine than ever this afternoon of
its defeat iu the Senate.
LEAGUE ISLAND
The House postponed the, reapportion
ment, bill until after the morning hoer, in
order to tube up the League Island Navy
Yard bill, and Mr Dawes is making a strong
Speech again.st'the transfer, upon the ground
that it will necessitate a large appropriation of
money.

Forty• First Congress— Second Session
WAsairturos - , Jan. IS.
SastArx:—A large number of petitions were
presented for the abolition of the franking
privilege.
Mr„ Carpenter presented one of these peti
tions, but said that for every such petition he
receives tykenty applications for document;
to be, mailed under his frank. ,
Mr. Drake presented the petition of the let
ter-carriers of St. Louis, for increased cona
peneation..
Mr. Casserly prnsented the resolutions of
the Legislature of California for thu with
drawal froth private entry of the public lands,
'in California.
Mr.' Portieroy presented the petition of W.
Cornell Jewett, praying that any conditions
to be imposed by Congress for laying ocean
cables shall apply equally to all existing
.cables i .and suggesting an amendment to the
telegraph bill reported yesterday, without
which an unjust advantage would be given to
the present English cable.
Mr. Trumbull offered aresolution empower
ing the chair to appoint a mernber of the ,
Senate to fill the vacancy occasioned by the
death of , Mr. Fessenden in the Board of Re
gents of the Smithsonian Institute. The reso
lution being agreed to, the chair appointed
Mr. Hamlin.
Mr. Hamlin called up the resolution to se
cure the distilled spirits in California, and di
recting the Commissioner of Internal Revenue .
to hold said spirits subject to a judicial termi-
I nation of the snit.
Mr. Sherman Said, in an ordinary ease of
seizure like this the Secretary of the Treasury
was empowered by law to decide upon the
rights of claimants - to the property, and an in
troduction of the matter into the Senate was
an interference with the ease..
Furtherdebate was cut short by the expira
tion of the morning hour, when the Virginia
bill was taken up.
Mr. Thayer resumed the floor in opposition
to the unconditional admission of Virginia.
He quoted from the Recdristtuction acts - to
prove that Congress had not, in a single line
of the acts ; committed itself to the admission
of Virginia in any contingency.. The
allegation , that faith has been
plighted was only true so far as the
power of the Government had been pledged to
insure the protection and security of the suf
fering loyal people of that State. He claimed
that reconstruction legislation had met the
approval of the people of the country, es
pecially that provision which declared that all
the people shOnld receive equal protection of
the laws. In the case of irginia the inipo-,
sition of the iron-clad oath was an unavoidable
necessity, as the only means of determining
the legality of the organization of her Legis
lature under the 14th amendment. The Senate
should bear in mind, in treating with former
rebols,that the rebellion had not been Crushed,
but bad merely been transferred from the
field to the fort= ; and ler one,
be did not
intend that the enemies of the Government
should be more successful in the future than
in the past.. The triumph of the leaders of the
rebellion would be as effectually attained by
legislation like that now proposed, as it •
could have been by the: destruction of
the armies of the United. States in
the late war. Ho proposed to tight the
battle which commenced in. 1861: unto the end.
He would vote against the admission of Vir
ginia because guarantees for present and
future security had not been given. In thus
following the dictates of his duty he was not
actuated - by any feeling of vindictiveness
towards the people of the South, and referred
to his vote in favor of the confirmation
of General. • Longstreet an one evi
dence -of his willingness to meet
the rebels in a spirit of forgiveness and
liberality; but until the-South appreciated the
liberal and generous support of the Govern
ment and the beneficent intentio as of Congress ;
he could not consent by his vote to jeopardize'
the interest and safety of the nation by . any
temporary policy,or one which the experience
of the past did not justify.
Mr. Nye repeated his belief that the good ,
faith of . Congress required the unconditaanal
admission of Virginia.
Mr. Drakeosserted his distrust of the Vir
ginia Legislature, and insisted upon the im
position of fundamental conditions as.a means
of enabling Congress more readily to deal
with Virginia it' she should prove treacherous
to the confidence which might be reposed in
her admission. •
House .—Theconsideration of the bill fur
the transfer of the Philadelphia Nary-Yard
to Leagne , lsland was:resumed.
Mr. Dawes made an argument against the
passage of the bill. He showed that under
it, if it could have been forced through muter
the previous question,' the Secretary of the
Navy could sell three millions' worth
of property at private sale in the Philadelphia
Navy Yard, to whom he pleased and ou what
terms he pleased, the only obligation on ~him
being that he should obtain the approval of
the President, who, from the nature of his
duties, could pay no personal regard or atten
tion to the proceedings.
The Secretary of the ICavy could sell the
property to any personal or political friend On
any terms he chose, and could apply the pro
ceeds to such purposes as he pleased on
League Island. Ile did not see why, in regard
to League Island, the representatives of the
people should be relieved of the duty of ap••
propriating that money from time to time.
He knew full well that the Navy Yard had
to be removed from Philadelphia, and he as
sumed that ultimately it would go to League
Island;-, That was a fixed fact, but - other things
were fixed facts also ; and • one of
theth was that the , passage of the
bill involved •an annual expenditure,
independent of the i , 3,000,000, of more than a
million dollars. The Etwineene report made
to the Secretary of the Navy three years ago
showed that in order to make League Island
high enough at high watermark to be beyond
the encroachments of the tide,the whole area,
four hundred acres, would have to be raised
'between nand 10 feet. This would require
four and a half million cubic yards of
earth, and no one would pretend that would
cost less than 50 cents a yard, makieg •an .ag-
Nregate of two and a quarter million dollars,
ot a shop could be transferred to League
Island until the, surface was raised, unless
they wanted the Navy .Yard carried to sea.
He knew that an estimate of $BO,OOO had Wien
prepared at the Navy Department for League
Island, to follow this . WI. He: asked
the Ifetise ' "to 'eonSider whether' there

was • an ^ abSoluto necessity tor nnier
taking this work at this: time. Was the
Treasury in such abundant funds as to under
take it? It became the representatives of the
people to answer that question. This was
time of peace i There was no pressing neces
,sity for the enlargement of navy yards, The
British navy depended on private ship-yards,
and 90 per cent. of all the work done for the
British navy was done in private navy-yards.
Admiral Porter recently stated before ono of
the House Committees--the Committee On
Navigation Interests—that, the government
bad spent four hundred and eighty-live mil
lions for a navy during the war,and that there
was nothing to show now for that :eapencli,
lure—that we had really no navy—and . had
suggested the building of u merchant marine
of iron screw steamers as a substitute.

3foNms.r, Jan. 17.—Tbe week opened On dullneos In all
the Yarions departments of the Stock. Exchange and in
the f RoOle. The inclement weather seemed to.rheek
The speculatlvt spirit: but enough was done on the part
of the few operators who were present to render stocks
strong. Prices in the forenoon were irregular ou light
transaetions. The market *as inclined to heaviness,
but rallied at the morning call. Mel thence improved
until at the last board, when it-settled "ofr from the
best figures of the day.
. The gold market was, on the whole, sfeally. butex
tmtwry dull; end " bulls " am! " bears ;dike vainly
descried the domestic and foreign politica! horizon . for
pretexts with which to start the premium out of its
lethally. The extreme fluctuation was only ene-qnatter
of one per rent.—namely, ft, 121.,; to 12Ei, the latter
br:ing the opening and the closing quotation'.
Borrowers on call with pledge of 'Government bonds
were accorummiated to-day at live to Six per cent., and
the stork houses were generally supplied at six per rent.
— DISCount4 were cosier, but without important change in
rates. Feriign exchange was quiet at 10 , 34'a10d?,; ter
prints bankers' sixty-day, and 100'iIa10531i for eight
sterling. A petition has been circulated
among some of- - the brokers to-day, ask
ing the Secretary of the Treasury to propoPc• to
Coiogrees a. plan of legislation by which the legal ten
ders may be redeemed with bonds bearing 3.65 per eer t.
per annum interest. But the project, is to tllOgh, it in
proposing to convert non•interest hearing obligations
tutu an interest-bearing debt that it has few chances
even of consideration. The petition is addressed to
Secretary Bontwell and reads as-follows:
. . .
"1 n view of titeritet that there is no opportunity offered
to the public. at the present time, for converting the
non-interest bearing promises of the Government into
its interest-beannu obligations. except by, purchasing
United States bonds on the gpen market at a' premium,
the undersigned respectfully request the honorable
Secretary to submit fos. ' tbo consideration of the
present Congress a plan for the redemption or
conversion of the present legal lender notes. by
issuing therefor (at the , option of 'the holder)
bends, of the denomination of 41,000 and
its multiple, to be made payable on demand, in the said
legal tender lodes, which shall be held for the purpose
of such reconversion ; the bonds to bear interest at the
rate of three and sixty-five one-hundredths rer cent, per
annum. And also that' permission be granted to the nag
t leant bank* to count said_bends in the reserve required
to be kept by law.”
The Government market opened weak, lu sympathy
with the weaker tone of the gold market and in response
to a fractional decline in London. But it 'teemed as if
large orders had been communicated to bny under 114
for the 67's and corresponding rates for the other issues,
the effect of which was to finally advance the list from a
quarter to a half per cent. on the lowest prices of the
torenoon.
