It is evident that the active little knot of politicians and others interested in the Penn Square job are nearer to the ear of the City Fathers in Common Council than are , the business people of Philadelphia or the sugges tions of economy and common sense. While Select Council 'has steadily and properly sus tained the action of the Building Commission, Cklmuton Council has refused all co-operation, and there is great danger that our public build ings will share the fate of the House of Cor rection, under the pressure of a small but un scrupulous knot of people, whose private in terests may be promoted by the misapptopria- lion of the Penn Squares to a purpose for which they are entirely unfitted. To these people the indefinite in crease of expense, and the incalculable in convenience inflicted upon the lawyers and the general business men of Philadelphia, are of no consequence whatever. The wildest absurdities are talked, both in and. out of, Couneils, about the "desecration of Indepen dence Square," and while these reckless 'talkers and writers laugh in their own sleeves at the •gnllibility of people who swallow their absur dities, they do not hesitate to play upon the patriotic instincts of Philadelphia, although they know that they are doing so by a delibe- , irate resort to the purest fictions. Mr. Barlow, for instance, inveighed with great eloquence, yesterday, in Select Council, against those who would pull down the sacred trees on the sacred soil of sacred Independence Common, "which have taken a century to grow." Now when people who take no trouble to inform them selves of the' facts read this sort of thing, many of them believe it. They believe that the Building Commission proposes to invade some sacred grove, beneath which Hancock and Franklin and Morris and Washington him self were wont to stray, communing together concerning the things of the Revolution. They fancy that these trees have listened to the first breathings of that storm which cleared American- skies of the clouds and fogs of British oppression. They invest them with a solemn holiness, and wonder that Police Com mittees of the nineteenth century should ever have ventured to profane them with the touch of - such vulgar things as telegraph wires, or that English swallows should have been fur nished with public lodgings among their revered branches. It reminds us of a little story." Once upon a time, a hard-shell Baptist preaeher, in the far Southwest, was preaching, in another, brother's pulpit, about Noah. He was a little .onfused in his mind concerning biblical his tory, and when he remarked: "My brethren I when Abraham entered into the ark,"—his 'reverend brother pulled his coat-tail and whispered : " Abraham warn't thar !" He was not to be contradicted, however, and he re peated his remark, with the same result. This little contest went on for awhile, the one asserting and the other denying that Abraham was in the ark. At last the preacher con sented to compromise, which he did by. saying : '"Wa'al, when Abraham war thar,—or than about ! So we remark to Mr. Barlow and ,the ima ginative people whom he represents, "Abra ham warn't Char!". There is a very sacred spot " thereabouts," and the purpose of the Building Commission is, to redeem that spot from its present common uses, and modern and incongruous appendages, and restore it to its own individuality, that it may be sacredly preserved as the Cradle of American Liberty forever. But Mr. Barlow's trees, like Abra. : ham, " warn't thar." There were some fine trees planted in Independence Square, about a doeen years after the Revolution, which grew to considerable size about the time that our. Revolutionary fathers were all dead and buried. Beneath these trees was established, as the historian tells us, the haunt • of all the idle men and dissolute women of Philadelphia, and the place became anything but sacred. it is not necessary to, go into the detailed history of Independence Square in those days ; suffice it to say that it became something not very unike what some of our other public squares have been within the re collection of our youngest readers. Then Mr. Barlow's sacred trees became Infested with caterpillars and were pronounced a public nuisance, so that sacrilegious axes were laid at their roots, and they were ruthlessly chopped down. The present tall Abrahams of the forest " warn% thar" at all. They are youths of the present century. They have no _Revolutionary pedigree whatever. They were neither "than" nor " thareabouts." The '-whole of this fine talking and writing about the sacred trees and the sacred soil of Indepen dence' Cominon, and palsying the hands and insuring the lives of the Building Commission ers, is' the purest sentimental bosh, and known to be so, by most of those who get it off upon the people. It betrayed its true character a little, yesterday, when Common Council voted down Washington Square and Franklin Square, neither of which puts in any claim as sacred soil, and insisted upon Penn Square. The "job " isset up for Penn Square. The more neatly the public buildings can be made, the better for those who have an eye to fat jobs. Upon the Penn Squares, the,buildings would of course cost far more at any other site that has been mentioned, for the simple season that a number of separate buildings would have to he erected. So much the better for 'Contractors and the friends of eontractors. This is not the object of all those who are working so industriously in favor of Penn Square. Some of them would scorn to touch the, pickings and steatings of any job. But.some of them have little properties around Xenn Square, widen they desire to advance in4alue. Some of them are deeply interested ins bank whose business might be enlarged. spin r eg them seek' Jocal pobtlea.) popularity by '3l.wj; 4 }`t r THE' DAILY EVENING' BU,,L LATIN. , -THILADELPHIA, - FRIDAY, - MARGIE 1870.- advecatjogmhat.theytbink are the 54orests- of t Ilie 'peSOle of the N nth and 'Telith"Ward4. And to carry' ont these, Various little private schemes, they have demonstrated that no ab surdity, is top, wild to be put ell' upon the peo-• pie of Fbiladelphia. : , • Common Council has apparently put a dead lock upon the erection of any public buildings' in Philadelphia, and we must now wait for the next movonpon,this ,veved question. , But we .protest, in the name of history and honesty, 'against a reiteration of this stuff and nonsense about the "sacred" trees and "sacred soil" of the common , lying:immediately south of Inde pendence Hall. THE POPE AN TIE, W CATHOLIC P. The scheme for the promulgation of 'the dogma of Papal infallibility is probably finally defeated ; and as the real abject of the -convo cation of the present Council was, after all, the establishment of this principle, the enterprise may be regarded as an entire failure ) which it were better to admit practically by dissolution of the ,Council. Out cable -despatches yester day informed us that the French foreign min ister has issued an official protest against the affirmation of the degina of 'infallibility, in which he declares that compliance of -the Council with the wishes of the Pope in this respect will cbmpel the French , govern ,wen to withdraw its troops from Rome. ' It is known also that three other great Catholic powers, Spain, Aus tria and Portugal likewise have expressed their strong disapproval of the. infallibility ~project, and have protested against its . endorsement. Ardently. as. the Pope desires the success of his scheme; it seems hardly possible that he will insist Upon it in the face orthisopposition ; and if be does, -it is not likely that a majority of the prelatesin the Council will be ready to sup pert him in his blind folly. There was a time Roman council could issue a decree and scare the obediehce not only of kings and ereperors,but of the people of the whole Chris tian .world,without an effort. Fortunately that day has passed forever; the most bigoted na tions have thrown off the yoke of their allegi ance to . floree, and havemanifesteddeterthina tion to rule themselves according to their own laws, to permit religious liberty. and to decide ' for - "'themselves upon queStions of faith. The last links in the chain were broken when Austria repudiated the concordat, and Spain admitted the Bible and Protestant worship. The official organ of the Pope in Rome, dismissing the probability of this very action on the part of Catholic nations, asserted that the Council would not be gov erned by auy expressions of dissatisfaction from the great powers. It 'would publish its decrees, and dissolve from allegiance to their sovereigns all eatholiesubjects who were called upon to choose between their religious and secular masters. But this was bold.talk, and nothing mom.' Unless the Pope is mad he dare not refuse to heed the threats of the Catholic nations of Europe,and persist in a design Which will place him in a position antagonistic to them. That temporal power by which he' sets as much store ae by his infallibility, de pends upon the active support of the French government. It would have gone to 'pieces two years ago, when Garibaldi and the Italians moved en Rome, if Napoleon, in violation of the September treaty, had not sent an army to defend the Pope's rights; It will be destroyed. now, if that army is withdrawn, and the Papal territory is left unprotected save by its own in efficient troops. Retention of this power is worth more to the , Pope than tne assumption of an attribute, which, under exist ing circumstances, can only be theoretical—for any practical application of his infallibility will be impossible. The Bishops, at any rate, will be likely to take this view of the matter, and to treat it with good sense and an earnest de sire to refrain from hurting the Church. It will be entirely apparent to the wisest of them, that any legislation which would place all the Catholic powers in Europe in an attitude, of -hostility to the Pope, would inflict such injury upon the Church that all the decrees of all the Councils ever held could not afford compensation for it. With a ministry in France pledged to an in 'crease of liberty, and ready to withdraw from the Pope the support of the government ; with Spain struggling towards pure Republicanism; with Austria again ready to assert her religious independence by rejecting the authority of the Pope and Council, and with the spirit of liberty and reform abroad in the world; active and aggressive, it will be madness- to fetter the- Church with new and offensive, theories which insult the intelligence and provoke the ridieule of enlightened men. We are not sure that adoption of such a course will not prove the first step in the downward path of this great organization. Thil Council is met iu the very crisis of the Church's history. It way choose whether it will adapt the theories of the Church to the higher needs of its dis ciples and to the advancement and liberalism of the age ; or whether it will drag it back into the darkness and bury it beneath a heap of su perstitions and impossible dogmas. Defeat of the infallibility scheme will fill the heart of the Pope with misery ; but it will be better for his fame and for the welfare of the Church of which he is the head, that the whole scheme should be abandoned rather than the Church should make enemies of its friends, and plant itself in the pathway of that spirit of reform which is carrying the nations of the whole earth with it in its forward course. Yesterday Select Connell passed' the appro priation of $lO,OOO for music in the public schools, and only the Mayor's signature is now. needed to enable Professor Louis to, proceed with his work. The community is to be con grattilated upon the triumphant conclusion of the contest for this appropriation. We believe / that the best results to, the school children and to the people at large will flow from the estab lishment in the schools of a good syStem • of inimical education. The only thing that , re mains to be done is for the direttors and teachers of the various schools' to give to Louis their hearty cooperation and support in his (flints to instruct the children. We know that there Is much bitter feeling among rsome of the teachers and .directors against the Professor and, his undertaking; but both if these have now received the com mendation of the city government, and as the Wei k' will assuredly proceed whether the teachers like it or not, it will be better for all parties and for the good cause, if the enemies Of the Scheme now beCOMe its friends a cidlnto to wake it successful. . is bad, it Will tail at any rate ; if it Is good, it is the duty of every Man and woman who pretend to,have at heart the advaneement of popular edUcatiOn to give it cordial support. We congratulate Professor .tmuis his triumph in securing this ap propriation, and we wish him the same success in his labor in the se cools. The Philadelphia, papers that are in vassal age to the New York. Associated Pressare very much annoyed at the success of the American Press Association, which furnishes its papers with news that is not given by their New York Masters. The Inquirer tries to throw discredit •priOn the important despatch from Paris, in yesterday's BULLETIN' concerning Count Darn's:note on Papal Infallibility . ; and because a rumor that such a note was written had ap peared in a French provincial paper, it pretends that the despatch was Manufactured. But the .Inquirer will find that Count Darn's note was, as the despatch said, only promulgated in Paris yesterday. Besides it gives certain features of the note that were net hinted at in the Angers paper, which did not mention the , infallibility dogma, nor the syllabus of 1864, nor the threat to withdraw the French -troops from • Rome, which are, after all, the really important putts of the Minister's note. • Evidently the Inquirer's wits want lubricating, or it would not show its " enterprise" in a slavish depen dence upon the New York morning papers for its news. • MISCELLANEOUS.

The Mauch ()Mink Coat Gazette of yesterday sayB : There was transported last week over both railroads 64,808 17 tons against 45,637 14 tons the corresponding week last year—an increase of 1.9,171 . 03 tons. Of this, 5,133 01 Conk were delivered to the Lackawanna and BIOOML4- burg Railroad for shipment north, and 59,- 675 16 tons came south for delivery along the line and at tidewater. Our reports showa de crease of 6,714 08 toms from the tonnage of tlie previous week. • THE MARKET We think prices touched bottom in the Scranton sale of last week, when coal ruled lower than at any previous sale, and, as near as we can learn. was sold for smaller figures than were ever before known in New York.' The camel's back yielded beneath the weight of the last feather, and we doubt whether, had hroduction continued, any business could ave been done during the present month. Every one seems to have felt this, and hence the suspension which has been impending for several weeks was inaugurated in portions of the coal region by order of the W. B. A. on Monday morning last. At this time all the operations in the Lehigh, except one or two at Hazleton, and all but the Delaware and Hudson, Delaware, Lackawanna and West ern, and Pennsylvania companies in the Wyoming and Lackawanna have stopped. Schuylkill has not yet turned out. If the suspension can be extended over the whole coal region, and all production stopped, it will accomplish its object ; i. e. the decrease of the immense supply of coal and the conse quent recuperation of the market. This was intimated a short time since when we ex. pressed a doubt as to the probability of a hgeneral strike. The whole question hinges ere. If the Schuylkill and Lackawana regions disregard the action of the Lehigh and Wyom ing men, and continue work, the latter will be obliged to resume; but if the mandate of the Union is enforced, the strike can be continued indefinitely. The Lacka wanna companies triumphed over the basis last 'spring. and their men are apparently loath to turn out while their good wages con tinue under the present brisk trade of that region. Loud complaint is made against them by the Union men of this region, and their action in the premises is awtuted with anxiety. The position of Schuylkill will greatly depend upon Lackawanna. Whether a prolonged and general suspen sion occurs or not, the market will be eased and prices must advance. Coal cannot be sold at current rates at a profit, and operators are becoming tired of working for nothing. In view of the prospect of an interruption in production, dealers are inclined to, hold otlfor an advance, and we look for better prices. Coal will certainly be cheaper this year than it was last, but this winters prices are no cri terion from which ,to estimate those of the corning spring and summer. . . tI 10.21 - C lAL AND COMMERCIAL.

INIDAY March 4.—Whilst the money markets of New York, Boston and a few other large cities are gradually growing active with the opening of the spring month, in our city we fail to see mach change for the better. Money moves sluggishly, and rates are easy at yester day's figures. There is some borrowing in the agricul tural districts, usual at this period, but the getioAil de mand is far below the average for the first week of March. 'There was a good deal of excitement this morning at the news that gold opened with sales at 113A', and cub eequfntly dropped t 11334. This brought out both buyers and sellers, en there was quite a lively time among the brokers in accommodating both classes. At 11 o'clock the premium advanced slightly,but the fluctu ations were rapid and the market generally downward. About noon the premium , stood, on Jamison & Co. , a board, at 11334. ' Government bonds were active, bet there wore mom spellers then buyers, and prices fell heavily in sympathy with gold, the decline being from lag per cent- through the list. Thorn was only a limited businese at the Rock Board, • and prim phew little change. State Loans sold at 107 X forth() sixes, third series.

CONDITION OF THE INDIANS Great Discontent Amongst Them Fears of Ex.tensive Hostilities Something Must. be Done to Remedy the (Special Despatch to the Phila. Evening Bulletin.) The Condition or the Indians. u.TON, March 4.—Hon. B.S. Parker, Commissioner of Indian Affairs, has received the following letter from General D. S. Stan ley, commanding at Fort • Sully. It may be added that the authorities here fear extensive Indian hostilities, unless something is speedily done to remove the causes of complaint on the part of the ,Indians. General Stanley says: I desire to lay before you some in formation concerning the condition and wishes of the Sioux at Cheyenne and Grand• River agencies, in accordance with the request of the principal chiefs, who, from time to time,come to rue withtheir complaints and hopes. It is useless for me to tell these Indians that they ought to go• to their agent. They know I am the ranking military officer hero, and they insist that I must write to their great father. As to - the condition and conduct of the Sioux at the two agencies referred to, I see no reason to complain, excepting that the young men have killed a few beef cattle belonging to the contractor, and all the friendly Sioux persist in making raids on the Rees and Uros Ventres. As to their com plaints, they all arise from their understanding of the treaty at Fort Rice. As you are aware. an Indian never forgets anything that is promised him, nor: can he understand why circumstances should interfere with the ful ' iillment of the promise. Now it is true that the Peace Commission at Fort Rice pictured to the Indians a pretty liberal view of their improved condition under the treaty, and the Indians come to me and say : " Where ,are those houses you were going to build? Where are the cows. the sheep, the pigs, mac.? But, above all, where are the guns and ammunition we were to have received ?" The planting of corn, also recommended to them, and which we pro mised to assist them in, bas t as you are aware, as yet made little progress. All the Indians whom we are accustomed to call friendly are very anxious to farm. Last year, owing to the want of laborers and oxen, very little was done; and while upon this subject I would recommend that a strong effort be made, this spring; to get as much land broken as possible, to give the Indians a start in planting; and whilst recommending, would respectfully ativise that a liberal supply of rifles and ammunition be furnished to the friendly Indians this summer. I have no fear nor any belief that, under any reasonable treatment, these Indians would ever use these guns against the whites. Since the council at Fort Rice, the friendly Indians have used all the means they could to induce the hostile Sioux to come in and bury the hatchet Many of them have given away all their horses and goods to the hostile, in trying to conciliate them, and now the friendly cluefs tell me they have given the matter up ; that they can do nothing with. their wild re lations, and th,st all they desire is to keep their bands together, to learn to farm, and to keep away from the hostile Sioux entirely. To encourage these friendly Sioux in every possible way is. of course, very important. They amount to eight or ten thousand souls, and if the hostile Sioux must finally be put. down by force of arms, which appears inevitable, the value of keeping the friendly ones quiet cannot be over-estimated. Of course the proSpect of a crop the flint year upon sod land is not good; but it twenty or thirty teams could be employed to break land this spring, the Indians would raise some corn, and the prospect for next year would greatly encourage them.
