Tbursiday, February 10,,1870., TITS zzocnicrowr inors. , The author and the hero of the riots in the , lambs of Paris, on Sfolulay last, was Henri Xecliefort, and The whole disturbance must be ,considered as having had an individual rather , than ayopular origin, ltocbefort, fora couple of years, has made himself famous by lam pooningthe Emperor and the imperial family, and he bee derived fortune as well as fame from the business. In accordance with the past' policy of the. Emperor, be was silenced: and obliged to quit the country. When the 'lluiireror entered upon a new and liberal policy, Rocliefor t was generously suffered to return to France, and to have a grind popular II - r , ,•.eption in Faris. He, was allowed to be a candidate for the Legislative Body from one of the most turbulent and revolutionary'distrlcts of Paris, and was elected. Ile took his seat as a member of the Imperial Legislature, and in so doing, took an. oath of fidelity to the Empire. He immediately began a course of systematic violation of that oath, and in this consists his chief perfidy. The manly mo ments of the Emperor, and his former policy'of .absolute personal government, refused to accept places in the executive or legislative depart ments, and they suffered themselves to be dubbed, irreconcilables." But Rochefort look his oath as, deputy , with the deliberate and infamous inte.ntion of violating it. So, in the Chamber, and in the columns of his news paper; be was continually vituperating the Em peror and all the Bonapartes. The personal •abuse of Prince Pierre, who was himself a Re pnblican, and who had nothing to do with the Government, led to the tragedy of Auteuil, and Rochefort at once ' undertook to make political capital out of the death of Victor Noir. The Legisla tive body very properly decided to punish a man who thus flagrantly violated his oath, and it was in the execution of the. moderate pun ishment decreed, that the opportunity was chosen, by his particular friends and the most &orderly of his constituents, to stir up the riots of Belleville. Happily those riots have been 'suppressed, without bloodt3hed, and without active interference from the military. I It is quite evident that there was a con spiracy to rescue Rochefort if he had been ar rested at the time the vote was taken to punish him. :He clamored for an arrest, but be was allowed to go quietl,y away from the Chamber, •and so all the plans failed. The moderation of the ministers and the clever ness of the police who discovered this scheme, are both worthy of admiration. Rochefort was deprived of a chance for a mild form of martyrdom,.accompanied by a certain sensational glory very much desired by vulgar demagogues. It was then determined to make the best of the r, opportunity when he should actually be arrested, •and that occurred on lionday. - For a few hours there seemed to be danger of a serious popular outbreak in Paris; but the people are not all Rocheforts; certainly not all fools ,;• and the demonstration disap peared, before the decided but humane meas ures of the government, as suddenly as it bad arisen. All this excitement, which was in tended to throw France, and perhaps all Europe, into eonvulsions, was about an irresponsible, crack-brained and perjured demagogue, who has never done a substantial act of benefit to France, or even to the ignorant populace who have been deluded into making of him a hero, Glorifying Rochefort is about as rational a business as glorifying George Francis Train would be in the United States. The one is •about as well fitted as the other, to lead a great popular, reformatory, or revolutionary move ment. Detesting, as we do, all the past usurpation s of Louis Napoleon, and , the general policy,of absolutism, and even of liberal dynastle gov ernment everywhere, - we cannot but rejoice over the successive discomfitures of Rochefort and 4 , bis followers in France. A wise, well 7 cpnsidered movement, with a well devised and practicable plan of popu lar goVenunent in that country, would re ceive our heartiest sympathy. But there can be no such movement with a perjured, fana ,tical, and unprincipled demagogue as a` leader. The completest triumph Rochefort, could hope •for would only bring bloodshed, convulsion and,misery, to be succeeded , by an anarchy worse than the worst of conceivable depotisms. At present be Is the right man in the right place—a perjured villain in- prison. If the 01- livier Ministry continues to act as wisely and moderately as it bas done during the brief ,month of its existence, the country- will be pacified, and when Rochefort has served his time he -will come out a very commonplace and inglorious personage, who ought never to have exc t ld a particle of interest among an enlightened people. ALLOrATILIC LEGISLATION Senator Ilenszey has the most unfortunate kick.in , bringing forward bills which have to the taken away again. Moved by the demon stration of Millerism, recently made in the Reuse, be has naturally regarded it as immedi .ately precedent to the Millennium, and has in troduced a bill-for harmonizing the antagonisms of the medical profession and the suppression of , Quackery. it is to be followed by a bill regulating the method of becoming ill and dying, which, soon•as•it gets luto regular operation,-will ,produee .a condition of peace and ,order in rennsilvenia,neVer before known. The old notions that one man it toindulge,the fancy that he "Would not die in Spring-time," and another that Oct.ober is 4il objectionable month for decease, and another, that be i• Would not die at will be done away. Doctors and undertalmrs are to think and practice alike, and citizens of this ancient Com monwealth are to live, and take medieineeiond endure operations, and give up the ghost;"ab rording to law. The hill for introducing the Medical, X+ let:dein-is an admirable one. It is arranged in the proportion of six' to ono ' for. Allopathy against the world of other systems of Modica) Beim*. There, is to be a Board of Examiners, consisting of the vague number of six alto: pathists and one homcepathlst, one electrician, ,one dry<earthist, one Thomsonian, one eclee- one animal-magnetizer, ••one and one of o.4W:other dieini and practice of MOdiefitsthat can coititriOto'naisteithe diffi cult feat of obtidninia &trier. fronithe Legls •latere for a.schnel. Before this Board. Of , Ex aminers shall come ill . gradnates `our, medi cal collegek-vilio.shall Pobseas,' in 'addition to, their diplomas, the sum often dollars each, to . be paid for the State diploma. The examiners shall all be required to believe In the Allopathic of 'botany, reateria media', chemistry, etc:, tint shall be examined in any theory and, practice' they may , prefer. They "pays their. money and they 'takes . their choice." They musthe six-sevenths allopathic and one-sev enthanything they like. The bill • appears to exclude women from its beneficent offices.'' The applicants for the honors-and emoluments of a State diploma are always referred to as ; " he," from-which we infer. that the "She", is not yet recognized in the Medical Milleniurn. • 'We confess that we like this bill. . Exeept ing ,that . feature 'which, by implication,•ex , cludes.the sisters of medical science from prao , tics in . Penneylvania, it is fidl of 'pleasant suggestions. There has been so much jealousy and bickering among the various wings of the medical world, that it is delightful to have them reconciled by law. • We kook forward to this Board of Examiners,, with bs homeo pathic lamb lying down among its six allo pathic wolves, with the brightest anticipations. We see in it the foundation of a new, grand, all-comprehensive school of medicine,, the Pennsylvania system, before which all the present 'conflicting practices will fade - away, and a glorified eclectic quackery reign supreme over the bodies and minds of our happy people. • It seems only reasonable that such con ceited institutions as the University of Penn sylvania, for example, should no longer be al_ lowed to decide whether- a man is, competent to practice medicine or not. For' something like a hundred and twenty years it .has been indulging this notion, keeping up a faoulty Of scientific men for no other purpose thin to in struct young men4n.medicine, and to confer medical degrees upon them, until its diplomas pass as current as sterling gold in every corner of Christendom. What has been the result of indulging ple,Vniversity of Pennsylvania . and kindred institutions in this way? Simply to turn out upon the community a race of such inferior men as, Rush, Gibson, Chapinan, McClellan, Jackson, Horner, Physick, Hewson, Hartshorne, Coie, Morton, Pepper, Norris, Meigs, Morris, Carson and a host more of the same sort. Senator I{entzey's bill stops all this. His Board of Examiners, none of whom ore to be teachers of medkine, - win revise the decisions of these ancient schools, and . reverse them, if they do not approve them:: Every one can see the great advantage that there Must be in the new system. Our medi_ cal colleges will swarm with young men anxious to win, at the moderate cost of ten collars, the honors of a State diploma. The pleasant uncertainty that will attend the diplomas of the University, or the Jefferson, until the student has made his pilgrimage to our Medical Mecca, and undergone his second examination, will only add to the zest . with which he will seek the advantage of the Penn sylvania schools. True, be can practice any where out of Pennsylvania on the mere diploma of the University of Pennsylvania, as all his fathers did ; but then the world will look with admiration and envy upon Our more favored State where our . doctors will all have six sevenths of their minds modeled upon. a uni form allopathic system, and where none shall be called masters of medicine, until a Board, from which medical teachers are excluded by law, has. pronounced them—at ten dollars apiece,—competent•thereunto THE PROPOSED HORROR WAR, There are some subjects that -will bear ham meriug at. The Mormon question in its new aspect is one of them. The magnitude of the interests involved hi its settlement are so great, and the probable consequences of rash action • on the part of Congress are so serious, that it is the duty of the press to express popular senti ment in the matter clearly' and boldly. Our Washington correspondent inforths us, that Cullom's bill for the abolition and punislunent of polygamy in Utah will be reported to' the House of Representatives by the 'Committee this week, and then the question of - the policy `of such a measure will come up for discussion. We entreat the cooler and wiser 'members of Congress to lay aside all prejudice, all feeling of disgust with the practices of Mormon ism, all jealousy of Brigham Young's absolute' power, and consider whether violent action against polygamy will not precipitate . us into a bloody and costly war which we cannot afford, and which will prove an ineffectual remedy for the evil to to which it is applied. There can be no doubt whatever that the mass of the Mormon people' honestly believe in the Divine appointment of their institutions, and would fight for their defence with the fury and desperation Which have always distinguished religious fanatics. Monstrous as this evil is, it IS not • so offensive and demoralizing as to threaten 'to corrupt the`nation: On the Contrary, it is so obnoxious to the people at large that its very vileness will always 'hinder its • growth, and, indeed, make its ultimate decay certain. whole history of religious persecution proves that fanaticism feeds upon the violence of its •enemies: The blood of the martyrs, is the seed of the church, whether - it be .one sect or another. An assault` upon Mormonism will unite its factions, inspire 10 zealots with J new faith, raise up conntleSs friends for the Cause; and. covet its revolting creed and practices •with such A glamour of self-sacrifice and heroiC devotio that. multi ttides will forget their disgust - in admiring the • endUrance and pitying the Suffering of the pemented saints. We believe that the passage of the Culloin bill by Congress will give a new lease of life to Mormonism. It will . be the surest method that could be adopted for se curing the, salvation of the very thing it is in tended to destroy. A man's religious faith cannot he kicked out of him. Proselytes wore never made with powder and' ball; and there is not on,! record an account 'of the con version to pure relit ion of a whole community tbioitoi the' instrumentality of a grand army, whose arguments, are cannon and musketry. We (fustian the propriety of the overthrcniof the Moulton 'Church by force, as much as we, do the tfglit' of tte Government to enter tbe Chinek' jostl'iiiii* in California, to sl,nalb upaukimikalti i aLimuzilt.=miataimAL;AnimmU . 114 ifonble-heatfed idols and to drag the China-, men to church by their quire., I( bf,;)fltwrittail l is nt(erly corrupt and sibotniiiable;contrail'lA civilization; decency and ihtlinaidty,`.hurt ful to the moral and material; welfare of its ad-: iherents, it will perish of itself." If it Is. not, • then it ought to live and be !et alone, If Christianity and civilization cannel, work the liestruetion of ,this beresy peae,efully,' then let us have the heresy as 'the ; ; better thing. But lye have no fear of the result.. The tendency of the , Mormon Church this very moment is' to disruption and hill). 'lf we, keep our hands . off ,and ciur armies out, of sight, the schismswfil increase in number, the factions will multiply, the lnpour ing tide of Gentiles will leaven the whole mass with disaffection, and the entire oligarchy will perish of, itself. This, is the reasonable, natural and inevitable result of non-interference on the part of the government. Such a policy Will commend Itself to all thoughtful men; and more than this, to. ll men who perceive in. the Cullom bill the germ of a conflict that Will cost us thousands of lives; and involve the country in financial ruin without accomplishing its desiam • TIME PIUDLIC BUILDINGS. • , Mile we regard it as a most, unnecessary and objectionable policy to mix up such Agnes tion as that of the public buildings of Philadel phia among the excitements and issues of a general election, there can be very little doubt that such an appeal to the people •Would'result in' sustaining the past action of COlinelll3 in selecting Independence Square ter the purpose. The opponents of the Building Commission have carried their factious warfare to Harris burg, and mixed up this local question in the legislative muddle into which Philadelphia's affairs are already plunged. While one bill proposes a reference of the location to a popu lar election, another, presented by Mr. Davis, arbitrarily prohibits the .use of Independence Square, on account of " the sanctity" of that piece of ground. Yielding to none in our reverence for the really sacred things of Revolutionary times, we dO not hesitate to pronounce this pretended reverence for the ground proposed to be covered by the Public Buildings as the most shallow or ignorant nonsense. There is nothing whateVer connected with the history of Inde pendence Square which makes it any more holy ground than Penn Square or Fairmount , Park. No use was ever made of it that sanctified it. No care is taken of it that can possibly suggest that the city authorities or the people have ever considered it sacred. In winter it is a muddy common; in summer, a bare, un sightly thoroughfare. It was not even con sidered. "sacred" enough to prevent the erec- • tion upon it of that miracle of architectural ugliness, the new Court House; and it is an affront to the common-sense of the , people, as well as %perversion of history, to talk about Independence Square. as " sacred ground." In dependence Hall is a sacred spot; and yet none of these reverent advocates of Penn Square object to the pie-and-coffee stand in the cen tral hall, or to the use of its apartments for courts and Council chambe,rs. Iflndependenee Hall itself is not desecrated by the uses to which it ' is now put, how is it possible that In dependence Square is to be profaned by taking these very courts and Council chambers out of the Hall,' and placing them at the opposite end of the block '? • There is but one strong argument in favor of Penn SqUare.- To put up the disjointed public buildings there, will involve a far larger job, as the cost to the city would be very greatly in creased by the erection ,of four buildings in stead of one.' And it would . also enhance. the value of certain priiite properties in the neigh boihood of Penn Square. This we confess, a strong argument ; but we doubt if the people, can be made to see it in such a favorable light as to induce them to vote for Op job, If each voter could be given 'a finger it might be made popular; but larger as,the job le,lt would make such small dividends; if so distribrited, as to be scarcely worth the.trouble; . The Congressional' Committee:. on Naval Affairs seem disposed to treat the staff officers of the navy in accordance withlhe demands of justice and the wishes of the larger portion of the people. The exact character Of the bill to be reported has not been determined definitely yet; but we • have an< assurance that the Com mittee have determined, finally, to give to the staff officers positive rank; - instead - , of compell ing filth to pear a certain relative rank assimi lated to and graduated by the grades of the line. This is well enough as far. as it goes ; and we hope it, is but the first step towards such a reorganization of the staff as wilt satisfy the gentlemen belonging to it,aud will make the different branches of the service, included under that general term, so `attractive that the best men in the medical and engineering professions may be induced to enter the Navy. Under the old system, it was hard for a man who desired to preserve proper self-respect to retain a surgeon's or engineer's c,omnaission, and the result was that the ablest officers resigned rapidly, and their places were not filled. 'ln the four years just past fifty-three naval sur geons have resigned from a corps of only two hundred, and at • this very• moment, there are not enough physicians in the Navy properly to officer the ships and hospitals. This faCt illus trates the dissatisfaction that exists. Congreis owes it to the country ,to disregard entirely the absurd aristocratic pretensions of the line officers, and by giving just and proper rank to surgeons, engineers and paymasters, to secure the best men • for ,these depart rnents. , Graduation at the Annapolis Academy does not give a man a patent of nobility. Me dleal,men, as a class, are quite is' respecta.ble as line officers in the navy ; and it la , true that successful practice of medicine reqUires as much ability as is required for proper manage ment of a ship. Secretary Robeson's bill pro poses to make the highest staff grade to rank with commodore of the line ; and' it is thought that this will be satisfactory to theofficers lin , - n3ediatelY interested. XI/ Senitor Spencer's bill the highest staff rank was of, the, grade of Rear-Admiral, but we have no' doubt that sur geons, engineers and paymasters alike will be willing to forego the chances of reaching this honor, if' they'ean secure in'lower grades just recognition of their rights and the treatment, tO which as gentlemen they are entitled.

[bridal Despatch to the Phila. Evening Bulletin.] HARRISBURG, Pa., Feb.lQ.—The Governor's veto of the Metropolitan Police bill sets forth that the title of the bill is not in conformity d•ith` the - Ctonfititntion, - beeitnee it contains 'more than one- - subject. -The bill really provides for - •the - election of five Police Commissioners, and yet this idea is neither expressed nor remotely. indicated by the title. Another objection to'the hill is that the whole sixteen pages are jumbled together into one section. This is unusual and lin- proper. .There is no reason for the departure from the ordinary rule of having the bill ar ranged in sections. • The Governor is folly persuaded that many of the present police are ineffective, and not such as the good order of the city demand ; brit while this is true, he more than doubts of th 3 wisdom • of the pro poSed r 4 inedy,, which contemplates an entire revolution. The constitutional authority of the Legislature, at a time of pro fonnd peade, to• create. such a power as the Metropolitan„l'olice Bill contemplates, to .operate over the whole State, is a question of great magnitude, involving tho inherent rights and -principles of , a Republican G,overninent. The bill is fraught with momentous consequences to the citizens of Philadelphia and of the Mate'; ; WA the position that, ptivre.r can be taken away from so large a portion of the 'people without. their consent, for a period of years, and lodged in the bands of six paMons. is 'extrabrdinary: and in violation• of the • spirit of the first and second sections of ,the twelfth article of the Constitution. if there exists! any right ,in the Legislature to • Concentrate power in a ' feW, men for : a a term of years, then it must be admitted they bave the right to tint it for any number of,ye . ars.

This is perhaps.the first time in our State 'history that competent men who have served their country faithfully inher armies are to be proscribed and •• ostra cised. This is a monstrous injustice. The Governor says that the members from differenfparts of the State who supported this bill knew that' their constituents would' not submit to such exerelso'of absolute taxation , tpon theineelves for a' single moment. It is thiti kind of legislation that creates discon tent, tinder the pretence of securing peace. It arouses in the bosom of every • man who knows his rights the most determined opposi- Mop. No republican goyernment can exist under unequal laws. It ts anti-Republican in form, and not De mocratic in principle, for a State to perpetuate its power by the passage of unequal and un just laws towards the minority. For these and other reasons he cannot ap prove the bill, nor do anything to.take from the people any portion of their inherent rights. The election of every local officer with execu tive duties should be submitted to a popular vote, and there is no reason why Philadelphia should be deprived of the right of pheosing by her own vote those who shall constitute Com missioners of Police ' as well as 'those who shall be Mayor, Councilmen and members of the Legislature. It is an elementary axiom that free govern ment should have some responsible head. Heretofore the Mayor of, Philadelphia occu pied this position of trust, and the people had a right to look to him. If he has failed to meet their expectations, theyy, have their remedy at the ballot-box, and let them have this ,again at the first opportunity. It will not improve the • existing condition of things to divide this responsibility among six Commissioners, of whom the Mayor would be but one, To whom 'would they be responsible? Would it be to the Legislature, winch changes annually ? Not to the people, for they did not elect them. Divided respon-, sibility in a Government is a political heresy. What kind of an army would it be , with six commanding officers of equal rank? And what good can be expected of a poliee_organi zation governed by six equal and irresponsible Commissioners? If the people of Philadel phia desire a police bill, let the Commissioners be of their own choosing. Let them' be of the people, for the people, and by thedieople. [Signed] , JNO. W.
