' Te grata Connell of the Church of Rome is now in itS second ..naonth pi' exiltence, and, it seenis to hare made no 'progress towards the settletutmt.of the variotts'questions that were to einne before it. The reasons for this are f rx:4 lard to divine. The Pennell' as intended, by Pope Pitts to do something towards restoring mwer . of Papacy,' which :has - been steadily,declinink'ever since his accession. In additiOnto 'losing temporal authority in the greater portion of that section of Italy known :as the Pontifical States, he has, :lost his quasi power over All the 'rest ; the ' TWo , icklies,Tuscany,Modena,Parma,totribardy and Venetia. Austria has dissolved the Concordat .3vbiel made her ainioat a vassal of the church. ~.., , Eavaria and the minor Catholic States of Ger many have freed. thoingelieti from similar vas salage. 'Spain, in driving the BoUrbcihs' from the throne, has ,established . freedom of reli gion, and' there is no-'longer a "Most Catholic „Aftkiesty." All the recent political deVelop oarents in Fiance 'have been prottats agaltiSt ec- Jtlesiastical authorityin affairs or State. Thus, in about twenty years from his elevation to t, Papacy, Pope Pius his found himself stripped of almost every send:dance Of, authority ''as a monarch. . • , • 111 i idea, or that- of his advisers,. seems to hive been . that '..semething ootinterhalance this loss might be effected by assetnbling the prelates from • all' - parts of the world in ' a grand Council in the Eternal •• City. •In ordering this Council be has . 1 exceeded the authority of the earlier Popes. For it is distinctly shoWn in Mr. Henry C. 'Lea's admirable new work called "Studies in Church History," that in former times the :'Councils were ordered by,the Emperors; that the, church was always subordinated to the Sfate; that canons of a . Connell have been yeteea by the Emperors; that Papal authinity was frequently resisted with success; that even their appellate jurisdiction was denied ',• that 'Papal ekcernimunications were treated with contempt by Emperors and Princes, and that many of these refused, during the first fifteen ihtindred years or more of Christianity, to re .cognize the church power as above their own. The Councils of •the Church were, in most cases„called by the Emperors, and the Pope took no part in them; the object being to de rive from the assembled wisdom of the prelates means of correcting abuses which- the indi vidual Pope 'could not or would not correct. The, Ecumenical Council 'now sitting at Rome is wholly different. No Emperor, King, or other reigning prince has had anything to do with it, in its inception or its progress. 'The indications are that not a single government in .any part of the world will ..be influenced by anything it may decree. There are indications, • indeed, that many of the prelates will resist all ultra' dogmas, and that if they are decreed, titeiWill be disregarded. . It is well known that many of the French bishops and a laree number from Germany and Other parts of Europe are opposed to the ex treme views of the ultramontanists, and so are a number of the American bishops. There was a despatch, also, the other slay, stating ^ that the German bishops bad held a meeting and resolved that unless the number of Catholics in the several dioceses nbould be considered in taking votes in the Council, they would return home in a body. This is a decidedly democratic movement, for It Claims for each bishop weight in the Council proportioned to his constituency. It does seem Anted that the head of a petty see 'of • a few thousand souls should have as mach power in the Council as one whose flock numbers millions. As a new evidence of the growth of liberal ideas concerning popular rights, this aciion'of the Gerixian bishops must be regarded as Very linportant. But it was to combat and counteract all such liberal ideas con terning popular rights that this Council was called, and the resolution of the Germans cements to 'a rebellious resistance to the wishes and determination of Pope Pius. If they aboard carrytheir regolution to go home unless their demand is complied with, the ,council would probably lee dissolved without action upon any of the important questions that were to come before it. After all, an (Ecumenical Council intended to strengthen the power of the. Church, and di- Minitdi that ,of states and peoples, is an anachronism in the nineteenth century. If Pope Pius would look outside of Rome and beyond continental Ertrope, he would find that the Roman Church is now most prosperous and most pure in countries where it is wholly separated from the political authority. In Eng land and in the United States Catholicism is growing rapidly; while in every part of the world where it is made the religion of the State, it is either declining or stationary. The English and American bishops now at Rothe ought to be able and willing to present these facts before the vouneil, and to convipee its assembled wis dom that any decrees meant to give the Church pottier at the expense of the people, will be as idle as the built against the comet. THE. MORAL LEG BUSINESS. There is a choice between the Bloomer and the Ballet-girl. Both may be virtuous and re spectable, but that is all that can be said of them in common. The Ballet-girl has the ad vantage in being sometimes handsome, grace ful and attractive; the Bloomer, by some strange fatality, is almost invariably ugly, awk ward and repulsive. Why the type Bloomer• should be gawky,unpleasant of feature,crooked' a legs and unclassical of bust, awkward in gait, hideous in the selection of colors, nobody has I. yet satisfactorily explained. The desMtees of the w:Fria leg 'business 'are supposed to be aim* of mind; possibly Nature, in her even-handed administration of the doctrine of compensation, chooses• for the bestowment of these rare mental gifts those whom she has Most neglected in her bodily ~ fainishtnent. Possibly she takes for her female reformers those whose native forms soost'need her better handiwork. It 1. , : po9si.. ble taimagine a.prettylroman in a Bloomer 'dress, even in such monstrosities as thos4 which invaded Philadelphia on Saturday last] for ,the,,humari imagination has alnlPo nd tiibnn s. "But whei ever SaW One ? , ' , We dO not like the immoral leg business of the presenf i day. We have done Oiu share in the endeavor to, drive it from the stage.;: 'Alit'..pd, 'porta' leg busineSs 'is' such ii grieVons wrong and offence; such an 'Outrage r upon Art 4. anditeason, and. Common Sense,. and , Mani and Voniii, that we are left in a bewilderJ rnent, .of ,doubt whether the. Bloomer or the Ballet girl is the greater social evil. - 'lt will be adMitted by all right:minded' people that no woman has aright to make her t self Uglier than Nature has ordained.. Woman may, bait' the right to'vote; and to go to Cork: Gress, and, to attend medicafclinics, and to gov ern her husband, if she, has one, and to do all things that: woman , has never, done, and to, leave undone all that woman has ever -done,' lint she'has no right to uglify herself: Soelety has its rights, and the disciples .of that terrible old lady, Mrs. Bloomer, have no right to trample on them.. If a woman is born ugly,—and, it must be confessed some women are,—it is her misfortune and the misfortune 1 , oilier family and friends; but if she deliberately makes herself' a, horror of. ugliness in thepublic streets, she, is . a ,flt, subject : for the : Citizens' Association. How many a comfortable digestion was 'spoiled; how many an amiable temper was soured; how Many an unoffending man and woman was startled; Shocked, hurt. in all the finest and highest • sentiment, of ' a ctiltiVated nature, by that procession of • Ugliness' that pranced- , 'up! Chestnut street on Saturday last! , We, ...did not turn and flee: n.tense of 'Anti, 'or the , sudden petrifaction of ;a: 'Wedeln 'Gergo nisti that sustained us, as that wabbling, un gainly, conscious concentration of hideouSly dressed women, stalked up the street, with their natural following of boot-blacks and, news boys ? The:material, the color, the cut of the dresses .of...these .invaders of our fashionable promenade, , ! 'where ,Fashion at her worst has never yet attained to a rivalry with them, must have been ' the dismal , result of some painful night-mare. We bave seen' a pretty Bloomer costume, never, be. it understood, on a professional Bloomer,— more than this, there are times and places 'where a costume which dispeuseS with 'flowing skirts is proper, decent, comfortable and ,be coming. But the streets of Coventry Itself were not deserted enough to justify such a procession of ungraceful Ugliness as that Upon which we have been doomed to look. It was escorted by male individuals who, by all the unities, ought to have worn paniers, if the women did not. The condition of these sub jugated victims of these • tuishapely, unsightly Jigurantes iii the moral leg business excited commiseration; but it was mingled with another feeling not akin to pity, at the thought that human beings 'of the male persuasion could be so bereft of the sense of that reverence which we owe to the Beautiful in Nature as in Art, as to walk in the street, , in open day-light, with such unpleasantly shaped and featured women in such Un pleasantly ugly clothes. One fact aflbrded a gleam of relief and hope ' amid the terrors of this occasion. The pro- Ceisiou paused as it stalked up Chestnut street; 'and a considerable portion, if not all Of it, filed into an establiShnient below Tenth Street, devoted to the Manufactured cvt(ficial ! Better, perhapi, that they had first tried the virtue of Wanamaker & Brow or Rockhill & Wilson, but even those artists would find their task easier after the artificial leg-maker had , done his 'work. ICES. Now that the law has disposed of Landis and his vicious publications, it will be con ducive to improvement' in the moral health of the community if some means be adopted to suppress the obscene newspapers with which the city is flooded. New York, the source of most of the filthiest immorality. with whiehlie country is afflicted, sends to this city I ,everY week thonsittai copies of each of ;VC Oi six flesh Pieture-papers which are! devited - tti glorification of vice; to• illustration Of scenes Of debauchery and crime, and to lewd representa tions of the human figure. These sheets are exposed to view in - shop windows and upon newspaper stands, 'and. they are studied with absorbing interest, not only by grown persons, but by children .of both sexes and all ages: Landis; pandered — to - a - select - circle -- of creatures as depraved as himself; his influence did not reach the pure ; but these newspapers pollute the minds of innocent children by re vealing, to them knowledge of wickedness which older people too often find to be a dan gerous kind of wisdom. And this source of corruption is not pent up in narrow boundaries ; in a great, broad stream of defilement, it - pours across the laud, seeking the light of day, dis regarding the barriers of the law, carrying its foulness into every household, and creating de moralization, the con Sequences of which will be seen when its victims arrive at, mature years. Every decent and intelligent man has perceived this evil, and deplored its existence, but nobody has thought It worth while to un dertake its abatement. 'A year or two ago some seizures were made by one of the High Constables; but ',the offending dealers were never broughtlo justice, because, if we recollect rightly, it was thought that the law against indecent publications did not oover these cases. But if the punishment of iiandis is just, and the theory advanced by Judge Peirce in his charge to the jury is true, 'We' cannot perceive why sale of these periodicals cannotbe prevented.. The judge: held: that publication of any gook which tended to in flame lewd passions, was an obscene libel, an -less it could he proved that the book was issued for a legitimate purpose and not for mere pur poses of gain or with an intention to debauch society. it will hardly be claimed for these periodicals that they serve any useful pur pose. They are wantonly indecent, and they - are issued simply in answer to a 'demand, which is well - known to exist in every commu nity, for impure' literature and indecent pic tures. But if the present laws are not suffi cient to prevent the sale of these papers, the Sooner we have some that are effectite the better. • There will be no hardship4r 4 injuntice done in breaking up the trade in this , vicious stuff and panishing the offenders. The men "who publish it and sell it are trafficking in the I , •nrity antivirtile of the community, and ac- Tg . gl - 1)A - giT.Oppiajw,i,,,bspii,EltixiAnItqui:/u , imoN.D.Ay;:.j.Ariu:Altyl.4ii:,187oJIT LITERARY POISONS. ~l^~ ... cumulating. , wealth Irvin the horrible bpsiness. f3ociety haS, a ,right, to pre, vent such' assaults , ~ upon the , 'very foundation of its structure' If it may ..punish the Man, who picks a pocket: 'robs, a honse, surely it may lnfliet some penalty,' Aipoo ; the literaryleasins who not Only 'teach youth to • become pick-poihets and htirglars,by glorifying ' 'of this character, pr but who present the f,opleist and meat daugeroug, vices . alluring. form's: WO' recomniend; this 'subject to the Mayor; and if he finds,' Upon trial, 'that the existing laws offer no remedy, we" will r,all upcin the Legislature to take some special ac tion to meet the 'demands of the OUR HOME !REARMS. Governor Geary will win a high „ reputation as a humorist, if he gets off many things as funny as his publleation, of the list of -applica tions for office. The thought is, a happy one; and certain to afford much- innocent tunuse merit to the boyi, though the ~frOgs may pro ; hably find less fun iii it, There seems to be no good reason why the Governor should not let the public know where to look for gentle men willing to serve in pm various laborious duties o stat e, w et m us t .be' pract ical convenience to the mart Yrs themselveas to know,how many eqmpetitonit in self-Aaerifiee have entered the lists with them. • .The list just published slitrat that there is no danger of any branch the public service re maining vacant for want of volunteers. True, there are but two aspirmits fqr a blowing-up at the powder magazine, and but two competitors for yellow fever at the Lazaretto. But • there are eleven gentlemen willing to preserve the purity of Our 'flour ; 'eight who will sacrifice themselves over the bung-holes of our whisky barrels; nine who will sect* it that no'mischief lurks among our hides; eightlynx-eyed watch dogs of surreptitious bark, and seven worthy gentlemen who propose to protect the interests of our harbor. But there are higher attainments than these, in self-devotion to the State. Governor Geary only does justice to modest and deserving merit when he tells the people ef Pennsylvania that the race of heroes is not yet extinct. There may be, men who would wrestle with the whisky swindlers, who would quake , at the quereitron question. There are men , who Would not hesitate to sound our Superfine Family, who would shrink from the smell of steaming skins.• They may be noble volunteers in thecause of their own choosing, . but they have, a choice. Bright as are the honors which await them at the hands of a grateful people, they pale before the clearer effulgence of those names which are offered.'," For, any appointment .r". Happy is the . Governor who can point to jewels like these I Proud should that Commonwealth be, whose citizens thus come forward to serve her with .no reservations, making no terms, with an unqualified "Here am I, send me !" Governor Geary has done a wise thing iu breaking up the stupid old idea that there is anything about application for office which is dishonorable and therefore to be hidden from public view. None can complain of the publication of the list of oflice-seekers, without admitting that they have been trying to obtain positions which they ought not to have, or of which. they are in some way ashamed. EXEMPTIONS FROM TAXATION. The principle of exempting certain sorts of property fr m taxation has been carried to such an ex ent as to promote a good deal of hostilit and Mr. Heuszey, of this city, has broug t forward a bill in the, Legislature to repeal all exemptions, which bill has been re ported on favorably in Committee. We be lieve that much property has been exempted that ought to lie liable to taxation. Ceme teries, for example, have no right whatever to be exempted, unless, indeed, purely and ex clusively charitable, if any such there be. Mostly they are nothing but speculations, and have just as much right to exemption as Un dertakers' establishinents and no more. It would, however, be greatly to be regretted, if by a sweeping change in the present system!, the burden of taxation were thrown upon charitable and religious institutions. Such are not legitimate subjects for taxation. If a num ber of persons join together, and ont of their own private means assume a work which naturally and properly belongs to the public at large, surely it cannot be right to put difficulties in their way by levying taxes, None but those that choose, contribute. It cannot be right to compel such a charitable body to pay taxes in order to alleviate taxa tion to those who will not aid in such charities. For after, all, it really amounts to just that. Those who contribute to charities will never be found amongst the number of those who clamor that charities shall be taxed. Those who raise this cry are just those who never contribute. 'Again, let it be considered that these chari ties assume duties properly belonging to the Commonwealth. If these charitable •institu tions were founded by the Commonwealth, they would be of course exempt from taxa. tion. Why should they not be, when they are paid for by individuals? in the ease•, of churches, it is to he re membered they are always centres of charities. Most churches collect from their congregations far morathan the actual expenses, expressly, that they may aid in every description bf charitable work. They pay for • Sunday School's, contribute to hospitals, keep teachers at work in other States, support missions; and try in every way to promote good-will and. peace amongst. men. To put - stumbling-biocks. in, their way is churlish and wrong-headed. in the prevention of pauperism and crime they save to the 'community tenfold their exemp tions. Let us rather have a little more economy and thrift in the Spending - of what we already raise. • Thissubject is further considered in a com munication from an esteemed citizen, on otir last page, to which we invite attention. The Ledger,With a profession of doing justice Le _Dr., Schoeppe, endeavors to take all the vitality out of the tadavits, 'published in the BULLETIN.OII Saturday last.

The New-York Motley Market. I From the Herald of to-day 4 ' ,Jau. :A—The current, of speculation during the week wag still in favor of higher prices in, the Mock Market, although the volume of buinne.se was not up to the correepoudiug Season* of the immediately prevloue year.. The reason of title lies iu the greater caution which has pervaded the public mind ever Pines the e>ents of September. Last January stocks were just in the first ewes of that remarkable intiatiou which ellaps , tl with the gold ." corner. ' Money is as eavy now at, it was thee---more so. iu tact—but the trams' fiction§ in steel's are on a stlimlnished scale: The clique,' have bad a lees itepres.ionable market to work upon this year, and ita> e failed to stimulate the old eethusisset. Considering the obstecle tuns presentee:l, their success in the " ntovenient. whielt iv their programme for- the 'vpriug menthe, has not been indif-- teretit Prices adsalnioet insensibly or rather very slowly. but they steadily climb from week to week. A retrospect of prires for the past month will chow that. despite the tutern,eoiate dullness and spasmodic declines in shares the general cenree of the market in ur,w are: Int rine the week there hits been eoneiderahle activity in Deck lelausl, which fluctuated between IteOia lode; ,the Street being treated to a sensation iu the tillage of a discovery that two millions of new stock bed been teemed in the summer, for the non-registration of which the name of Rock Island was struck from the list at the stock Exchauge end the stock driven to the sidewalk, • hem the dealings revire recollections) of the Erie expulsion ,Of tent winter.

Its refusal to break.' in a panic upon the atmentmetuent of the a , er-iFell• ant the heavy .mirelasee of the past few days. ender which the price on Saturday reached to . seem to it dkate that the inside clique, who went short of it from 13i downward, have courted the itilsc every of the over-beim) for the purpene of bring ing in their stock. The tact that the new issue wa s authorized.was well knewn is the public. Indeed the directors retain the right to issue two millions more wlr-n they see fit Despite the overhanging. contingence the price has be et, farm. Rock Maud kas been a foot ball among the speculators,who-knowing the attraction it possesses as the shert conneeting link between the Pecan, Railway and all the various railway limes of the' East, bare been able to operate upon the public confi dence. Beek Island. like Erie, is among the great rail - of the eauutry, but. like it, has nufortunatele fallen irttodpecniative control. The rails' ay list was.in general. active, anil the week closed upon a marked im provement iu the Prices. The feature of the ensuing week promisee to be • Struggle in Northwest, in which Daniel Drew is reported largely short, while Commodore Vanderbilt as said to have heel tins - log it ever since September.

The Gold market we/Ideal and the price heavy. The abundant supply of. gold has defied the effort 'of the " bulls " to keep up the premium, especially as the stronger speculative combination, have either been out 9f the Market or on the bear side of it. Thespecula tire spirit has almost abandoned the Gold it., of late, and transferred its Wetted to the stock market. Government bonds have sympathized with gold and declined., The foreign.demand 'hate been light,particu lady in London, where the neer Euenian loan is market ing. The government bought two millions during the week, but as the holders named to have large amount , ' to sell, the atren theuing influence of the purchase AM counteracted. The Secretary of the Treasury now holds about V 1340,000 purchased beads. ' The, mosey market was easy at lire to six per cast., with loans at the close of the week as low as four per cent. The banks are glutted with eational hank notes, which accumulate here pending the inactivity of the ru ral districts during the interval between the marketiug of the crops and the opening of opting activity. Com mercial was in request by the country banks, and, dis count. forjorinse short paper ranged as low as seven per cent.
