A connusroNzumr says that Washington is
She most slandered city in the world. Instead
of being the modern Sodom, it is the most
quiet anclorderly city in the "Union, and one

the churches better filled than in any other
city on the continent.
THE thirteenth annual report of the Society
for the Increase of the Ministry in the Epis

Church is men—not costly churches,nor lands,

even more money—but brave, earnest, edu
cated men. Money without men will never
convert a nation.

CITY BULLETIN.
-The. Grand Jury empanelled for the Feb.
ruary term of the Court, of Oyer and Terminer
and Quarter Sessions of the City and County
of Philadelphia made the following present
ment to Judge Ludlow yesterday :
The Grand Inquest of the -Commonwealth
of Pennsylvania, inquiring for the city and
coubty of Philadelphia for February sessions,
IS7O, respectfully present, that they have dis
charged all the business brolight before. them
,4 without envy, hatred, or malice, and without
fear, favor, or affection." They have acted
upon 302 bills, or which 232 were returned
as „ true hills, and 130 have teen
Ignored. The Grand Jury visited , the County
Prison, Almshouse, Eastern Penitentiary,
House of Refuge, Northern Home'for Friend
less Children, Asseciated Institute for Soldiers'
and Sailors' Orphans,and Girard College. • 'At
the County Prison everything seemed to be as
cleanly and in as good order as The 'crowded
condition of the bailding'wonld allow. Many
of the cells that were intended for but one per-
son contained three, and in some cases four.
Of course the officers of the institution are not
to blame for this, but the necessity is so press-,
ing for a. .House of Correction .that we
most earnestly urge the earliest atten-.
tion possible thereto, and especially so ,
in consideralien of the late action of Governor
Geary,' who""declines (for a certain period
longer) to interferdin our municipalaffairs; but
the necessity is of so vital a character, and the
neglect of so imperative a duty must affect the
morals of our people in a great degree, that we
recommend the necessity of •speedy 'lnd con
clusive action, which we earnestly hope the
matter may receive.. The Almshouse was
found to contain its regular. (late) quota, about
B,EOO inmates, a number of whom were large,
able-bodied men, and should have a salutary
lesson taught them for not striving to earn an
honest livelihood whilst there Is such a uni
versal demand for steady help without. The eon
dition of the institution throughout was very
creditable 'when considering its overcrowded
character, and the sanitary requirements un
questionably call for increased accommodations
for those justly entitled to our consideration
and sympathy. The number of patients about
the same as per late report. Bath and wash
rooms, bakery, &c., were found to be complete
and satisfactory, and it affords pleasure to
testify to the wholesome bread prepared here
in such large quantities, of which we partook.
So far as we could determine, our opinion is
that the "management" is able and' efficient:
The Girard. College reflected great credit upon
the accomplished president and skilled corps of
assistants, performing duties so varied and yet so
well that it was a pleasure to contemplate them,
which we would fain have lingered hours over.
Everything here bespeaks a work • progressing
which must go far toward ennobling our whole
people through this grand benefaction. The
Ilouse of Refuge, was. unexceptionable for.
order, discipline, and cleanliness. We cannot
but congratulate the city upon so valuable an
adjunct to the proper control and education of
the young, and would heartily recommend the
establishing of a number of such schools for
teaching trades to youth, where parents could
send children of both sexes without incurring
the opprobrium which attaches itself more or
less to those having a residence here. The
present institutionirriglittten - be — reserved for
those only who 'were'of 'a' refractory character.
The Northern Romeridtheassociate institute
were both found to begin the best 'possible con
dition, and we can scarcely find words sufficient
to express our admiration and appreciation for
labors so arduous as are apparent here where
so many young are educated and controlled by
so small a staff of officers, but thorough disci
pline vindicates itself. n conclusion. we de
sire again to call attention to the " concert
saloon", and unlicensed "rum-shop" nuisances,
and trust that every effort may be made upon
the part of the authorities to abate such dia.
culties. Many of the cases before us the
present month have been caused by the use,
or rather abuse, of liquor, and we think
no greater saving to the community in
money and morals could possibly be
conserved than by arranging some
well considered and stringent license system.
The Grand Jury thank the officers of the court
for attention and courtesy, thereby facilitating
our labors, and we respectfully submit this the
report of your Grand Jury for the term ending
It 4,1870. S. T. Anon, Foreman.
TIIMMORE EAIIP, Secretary.
Judge Ludlow thanked the Grand Jury for
the efficient manner in which they had per
formed their duties, and said how much be re
gretted that the time had arrived when they
must retire again to their , positions as private
citizens. Ile referred to the fact that the Grand
Jury bad visited all the public institutions in
the county, which they reported as being in a
healthy condition, and said it was a satisfaction
to know that this was the case, although they
could not say anything which was particularly
new.

APT QUOTATIONS AND WITTICISM®.
A writer in an English magazine says :
•
"Of that power for classical quotation of
which Dr. Johnson spoke, several witty exam
ples are told of Dr. Parr. When, in• taking
- down Borne books from his shelves, a critical
work of Lambert Bos fell upon a volume of.
Hume ' be promptly said, Pronisambit humi

," liantua, sae minerfe, nimium vicina Cre
mon.% !
(Ec. ix. 28). When asked for an address to a
.tea-chest, he promptly gave the words,
doces'-- , Thou tea-chest; though this joke is
also .attributed t 6 his friend, Loid Erskine. A
caricature of Dr. Parr was published, repre
senting him as preaching and smoking, 'and
using the quotatash, Ex Imo dare tucern.'
When he tried for the head-mastership of Har
row, and was opposed by one who made a
long, swelling speech, a Harrow boy wittily
quoted the line :
"Si te'niperio, non par erie
" A Mr. Cole, of Cambridge, left money to
erect Bt. Clement's Chnre,h, Cambridge, on
condition that his name was plainly inscribed
on the exterior of the lower. It was dotal
thus : Cole : Deum,' 1. e., W orship God.'
Pere Foster asked Dr. John Taylor, editor of
Demosthenes, why he was going to sell his
horse. The Doctor replied that he could not
aflbrd to keep a horse in such hard times.
Then,' said Foster, 4 you should keep a mare.
As Horace says
H gAquam memento rebus in arduis,
Bervare.'
44 When Wakefield published an edition of
the Hecuba,' Porson, who had done the same,
said:
"'What's Hecuba to him, or he to Hecuba,
That be should publish her?
"And, when 'Hermann accused Porson of
being more dictatorial than explanatory in the
metrical decisiOns contained in hiS notes to
Hecuba, Porkin replied to him with an epi- ,
gram in Greek, accompanied with a transla
tion in English,about ' Hermann the German,' ,
which is equal to his other epigram on Pro
fessors Brunck and Ruhuken. When Her
mann's pupil, Passow, published his lexicon,
he Is reported to have happily quoted Horace
(Car. lib. lit. xxx) in reference to Brasse's'
'lexicon. ' Exegt montonentum cure petennius.'
Another ode of Horace was quoted by Bishop
Heber, when, after dinner, the removal ' the
white cloth revealed a green balm covering to'
the table: 'DUN/fere nit es,recieurit ;Pun grant- '
flux compis" (Car. lib. rv. - vii. 1). Bishop He
ber also wittily quoted Horace's ' Ex.somnisr
stypei Enias " (Car. lib. in. xxv. 9), when the
fat gentleman, who was known by a peculiar
nickname, awoke and asked in astonishment
what they were all laughing at? A Vice
Chancellor, who was unjustly hissed by the
under-graduates in the Senate House at Cam-'
bridge, bowed to them politely and said, 'Lau
datur ab his.' When Sir Robert WalpOle was
talking to his friends of retiring from the cares
of office, he quoted Horace (Ep. lib. XI, -rt,
214) :
" Lusisti satis, edisti satis, atque bibisti :
Tempus abire tibl est.
when a friend observed : 'Yes, my Horace
says so; but I should have thought that in
your Horace it was bribe-isti.'

Robes A. demi-train would seem to be on
the wane ; it is ether the grand robe with the
full train'for toilettes of ceremony, or the robe
"touchant terre," as it is styled, or the robe
courte, still a deux juries, for the promenade.
For the , latter • plain or finely striped velvets.
trimmed usually with fringe or deep or nar
row bands of- fur, in the latter, case with toque
and muff en suite, are as much in vogue as
ever. • It is nevertheleSs becbming the fashion
to vary these costumes with an finder jupe of
satin or faye, either black or of the same
shade, the plaited flounces of which; rising to
meet the short upper jupe, are !either inter
sected or surtnounted by , velvet bands.; For
these rich warm tints of color are usuallypre r
(erred ; such, for instance, as 'golden ov russet
bream, various shades of plum-c.olor, notably
"prune de Monsieur," `deep mauve, violet,, and
a rine black and gold stripe. One toilette
entirely of velvet of a warm violet shade is
made with a short jacket bordered with
chinchilla fur, a band of which is arranged tb
form a small simulated pelerine behind. The
cuffs of the tight-fitting undersleeves, together
with the openings of the loose hanging sleeves,
which droop almost leiel with the knees; aro
tiimrned en suite. The perfectly plain tunic
has a fur border, and the 'under jupe has a
deep band of far some few inches from the
bottom. A velvet muff bound with fur and a
rah.*
• mr,Avuel:r Iry nal co 81 t.y tier, St—
cured with a large gold buckle, complete a cos
tume the elegance of which rivals its simplicity.
A toilette in. Carmelite velvet, trimmed with
twisted silk cord. the under-jupe of which has
a deep flounce with heading, has its upper jupe
raised at the sides by Interlacing cords and
tassels; while the jacket, which Is open bebitid
to accommodate the slight bouffante, basia
couple of pointed hasques fallhig down rather
low in front and a. vaporous-looking lace frill at
he open collar.
A LITTLE MORE ROBBY.
A more pretentious costume is of black
velvet and garnet-trolor Faye, the under pipe
being of the latter material, and trimmed with
numerous small flounces, each with its plaited
black velvet heading. The upper jupe of velvet
forms a tablier in front, and is gathered at the
sides ' where it joins the bouffante , its trimming
consisting of a fringe formed of sniall
shaped ornaments of black silk picked out wi4
gold thread. A little jacket, with loose sleeves
and skirt compered of four lappets, Is trimmed
to correspond. The Princess Dalzouniki, who
wore this , costume, rendered it more striking
by tbe addition of a long ceinture in sky-blhe
moire antique.
robes of , the most. , brilliantecolored satin,
with black velvet stripes of more than half an
inch wide, have latterly come into vogre, and
are commonly worn with fur or velvet man
ties, though they may be observed in conform.
tion with colored satin redingotes bound with
ruches of black velvet and a deep border of
black lace, and having velvet revers edged with
narrow lace at the collar and the cuffs. The
front of this garment is dosed with ornaments
in black silk passementerie; the skirts being
open behind to display the bouffante of the
robe.
Simpler toilette/3 are in poplin merino, cash
mere and other woolen stuffs, the myrtle
peen already spoken of being the predomina
ting color, and velvet being the favorite triin
ming, with the addition at times of a rich :silk
fringe. Seme of these robes, as well as these
of, lighter materials.such mixtures of silk
and wool, are trimmed at the bottom of the
upper jupes and round alike basques 'and
tabliers when these form part Of the costume,
also at the neck, and occasionally , at the cuffs
and shoulders, with ruches of the same stuff'
as the robes themselves. The under jupes
have one deep flounce surmounted by a hr
fd
ing or else a series of small flotmces, either In
dependent of or ' overlapping one another.
Now and then bands of velvet and chenille
Pasterneetetie will enter in addition into the
trimming of these costumes.
CASHMERE ROBE,
of the rich prune de Monsieur shade, has its
jupe trimmed with both a vandyked and a
scolloped flounce, With black velvet borders
and headings. The large pardessus, sligtrtly
caught up all round, is crossed in front on the
left side where it is trimmed with a bread
velvet and ; the square collar falls back, and
forms'a pointed cape behind, and the sleeies,
tightened at the shoulders, become extremely
loose at the wrists, where they are bordered
with arid' flounce. Velvet buttons'are ranged
down the entire front of the garment. ;It
would seem that the "snivez-moi" is about; to
reappear in a new form, for it is becoming the
fashion to wear posed at the back of the n4ek,
both of in and outdoor toilettes, an elaborate
pendent ornament in rich silk passementerie•
terminating in tassels or grelots, and which
falls almost level with the waist.
,
appear to, have arrived at the last stage of
magnificence, , the richest stuffs being 4ow
; garnished with the richest; trimmings. Take,
for instance, a lobe of. golden brown velvet,
and warm grey satin made with a long train,
an manteart de cow, the satin Dupe having t,wo
tounceii ' coquilles, the uppermost of tin
I T
~ , ,
4impied with a delicate Interlacing passe en-
Aerie, the„ lower one , of velvet .edged wi h a
gathered border of black• lace. The velvektrain
untrimmed all , round with bands of -rich Rase
menterie, •that' gradually widen 1 towar4 its
extremity, (leaded , by ruches of grey satin.
The velvet corsage, bordered at,the top with'a
deep entredeux of black lace on a satin piping,
has little pointed . barque& trimmed Ivitk
passementerie falling down in front, and larger
ones, bordered with deep black lace,, at I the
hips, where they are puffed out. The short
open sleeves; vandy keda at 'the ' edges, 'and
trimmed with lace, reach only.' to the elbow;
satin sleeves being seen beneath, , .

C • V • 11l V! r ItoMEN.
One of the oddest things in this strange
contradictious life of outs is the disagreement
continually occurring between material fact
and moral reality. " Things are not what
they seem" in very truth ; and we should sel
dom be far out if we took appearances, as the
witches of old used to say their prayers, back
' wards. Axtdforenrcitstamong:thesio-sontradtc
tions are certain circumstances touching; tie
written" and the' itetual 'cOndition of women
in -England, By law ; a .wife ,is nowhere.
Ranked with Infants and idiots, she is, the
property of Uri:l'6'6MA; her 1101 s -ire vested
in him, her very individuality Is merged in his;
of herself, and disallowed by hint, she can do
nothing either to defend or to maintain her
self; all of which is bad enough when:
the marriage is a failure, and the.
home falls asunder, and the wife .
has to bear the brunt of two evils at once—fet
4ers on the one band and want of protection;
on the other. And yet what is the moral re
ality in the face of this positive legal fact
That nine times out of ten the woman is the
mistress and the man walks in leading strings;!
that the law assigns her as property but society'
- grants her - postessien;: and - ithall she ; being
more exclusive, more jealous, more arbitrary,
aiidnarrOVver than able: to. impose her
own WM anti oxici , PkAine4 3 4 to - Make' him
accept her will unconditionally. The man
must be •Veryr hard' dr Every -Sharp whom'a
woman cannot sail round as she Chooses, and
manipulate to any form she takes a fancy for.
She has but to adapt her battery to the charac
ter of the citadel—surface-submission for the
blustering, coaxing for the soft-hearted,
flattery for the vain, deception forithe obtuse—
and she' gains the day on her own terms.
Unfortunately for herself, she generally gains
it by something less than the rigid truth; for
though Merlin and Vivienne represent an ex
treme case, still the type is true,ff exaggerated,
nature, which denied woman strength, having
made up for it by a double share of subtlety:
hall comes to the wile thing in the end;, and
the end is mastery. The monnium bonum of
life; the thing forywhich all nations, all rell
glom, all Men.have striven since the world beL
gun, that desire for supremacy and mastership,
which is to human'history what iron is to the
blood and lime to the bones, is by no means a
specially masculine characteristic, still less a
specially masculine possession ; albeit com
passed by different methods and exercised in
diflerent ways,it is as much the central desire Of
women as of men, and their swmnum bonum
too, when they can attain it. And they do
attain it, in spite of Blackstone and the laws
touchine 6 and regarding the rights and condi
tion of f.rron and ferne.
In nothing do women show their mastery
over men more than in the extent to which
they carry their exclusiveness. No women in
the world, not told off into castes, are so ex
clusive as the English, none so jealous 9f
sbaring,their good _thing& - is not in one
thing, but, in everything alike- 7 dress, station,
dornestic happiness - , the companionship of men ;
they would, if, they oordd, keep all they
distinctively. , their. own, rigidly to themselves;
they would suffer no longing eyes ' to look over
their park palings, still less allow another to
share in their fruits and flowers. As a rale, it
is not the man's fault that the English home is
so dull as it generally is. It is the wife who
prevents all easy intercourse, all simple friend
liness between her husband and other
men, and yet more between her husband
and other women. It is she who bars the
house door, and forbids it to be opened save
with such pomp and ceremonial as makes the
opening a weariness to all concerned. The
very woman who, as a spinster living with her
sisters, is glad to have a facile unceremonious
society about heron' a wife seta her face de
cidedly against thaVkind •6f -firrnillaiity which
lets a person feel at Inane, in ber house ; 'and
above all things she feats and dislikes a female
friend strhottdmires' her husbandj though in
the most innocent,way, and,who says so. The
profound moral scepticism which has pene
trated society from end to end has eaten away
feminine trust with the rest and even puke
and virtuous women, incapable foe their min
parts of anything ike immorality, are not
ashamed to suspect their sisters of improper
feelings and naughty practices. and to think
themselves safe in their married homes knit
in proportion as they are isolated. Especially
are happy wives suspicious of those who have
made shipwreck of their own venture. Un
married women and contented wives may be,
if rarely, admitted into the heart of the
charmed eircle--if the husband is conspicu
ously iraliferent,t9 „theta ; hitt - .14P JuillaPPY, wife
is held to be a kind of pirate in disguise, arival
who *ill isteeitiyaq the bisband'staffeetion4 if

he will bestow them Unasked. 'Very few
women •haie - 'generisity enough , to befriend
one of thPir own sex when in mat
rimonial difficulties, if their friendship is to
include their husband's,
,
Of all things most abhorrent to women we
may count duality, under any name or aspect.
Only a man and a masterful man, could have
written as Coleridge did about the ~ two be
loved women" in his Day Dream, with As 's
eyelashes playing on his cheek and Mary's
hand upon his brow, Mary's lap the pillow ;of
the two lovers, and her head leaning on the tee
l i
where the two names were carved. Tis

elusion of male friends from their own hearts-;
most women having set, up a tame cat of their
own some time or other in their livi,ea,
though not liking tame mice for their husbands.
The fact Is, a wife in England claims to beer
husband's all. She is not content to possess the
whole of such love as rightfully belongs to a
wife, but she must also possess the whole; of
his sympathy, his interest, his admiration. She
must be the only woman in the world to him;
and the rest of her sex must be neither as Man
nor woman.—Saturday Review. , i
