The Penn Squareites, having fallen back upon the Twentieth, Ward, in order to take, like Mr: Micawber, "a spring of unusual magnitude," held a Mass Meeting last night. No less than sixteen persons were present, which may seem like a small number, although Mr. George Wentz assured his fifteen compatriots that they represented "ninety-five per cent. of the voters of the Ward," a caleula lion which puts the whole .political strength of the Twentieth Ward at a fraction below seven teen voters. • The meeting was an extremely interesting one, both from the smallness of its numbers, out of which the chairman found it quite im possible to appoint a "committee of twenty," and also from the fact that it inaugurated a new system of parliamentary pro cedure, which will be known hereafter as Zeilin appendages." These are of the nature of bob-tails to a kite, or guess-answers to a conundrum. First, you ask your conundrum: Wby are we opposed to any buildings on Inde.. pendence Square? Then, you begin to guess the answer. Thus, you say, Because, it is " sacred soil." Because, it would desecrate the birth-place of American liberty. Because, Independence Square is not at Fifth and ellen,- nut streets. Because, William Penn ordered the public buildings on Penn Square., Because, Olive, Merrick and Juniper streets are much wider than Walnut, Fifth and Sixth streets. Because, we are opposed to it. Because, we are satisfied with our opposition . to it. And last, and most original of all, Because, Inde pendence. Square is " sacred soil." Here at last we have the arguments in • the case. , fn - Anacryl_suad_rpaannq with us. None of your Tenth Ward palsy,and blood, and ashes of your grandmother. True, Mr. Chairman Maurice got off a moderate sally about Mecca, which we think we remem ber to have heard before, froth some othdr orator, several years ago. But there was noth ing threatening or dangerous aboubit. There was a fair attempt to guess Mr. Zellin's conun drum, and the " appendages," while not very varied or very lucid, were such guesses as we. should have looked for. They may be grouped• under four general heads. First; the sacred ness of the soil of Independence Square. &fond ; the inferiority, of Independence Square the superiority of Penn Square Fovrth ; the sacredness df the sacred soil The first and fourth of these arguments are sufficiently alike to be treated under one head. Independence Square must" not have any, buildings upon it. Every brick mist be taken away, for the place on which they stand is holy gronnd. Colonel Walborn says so ; Celoucl Maurice says so; Colonel .Zeilin says so; all the great colonels of the war, .so far as heard from, say so. Independence Square has been profaned these many 'years by court-houses, Mayor's offices, scientific buildings, Council chambers," Row" offices, and we are not sure that the drinking fountains are not near enough to come within the category of profaning edifices. But stubborn we still ask our old conundrums : What made tbe soil of Independence Square sacred? What has ever been done to mark its consecration? Ilow would a great temple of Law,Justice and Government desecrate it ? We call for "appendages" to these conundrums. As for the second and third arguments of the Penn Squareites, they are simple questions of facts.- The immortal Sixteen of 909 North Broad street deny that Independence Square is central to the business community. Well, but the denial of: the Sixteen does not change thelocality of a single bank, insurance office, icolmtinrhouse, store, railroad office, eustom-house, post-office, trade exchange, banker, broker, lawyer, business man in Philadelphia. the " centre " of this Union is somewhere in Western Nebraska, but there are comparatively few people prepared to put the, National Capital in that S4tte. What is wanted for the public buildings is a convenient business centre, and that is perfectly supplied by Independence Square, and dill be so supplied for a century to come. The argument that Juniper and Merrick streets are wider than Fifth and Sixth streets, is so purely a question of facts that we refer it to the City Surveyor for an answer. There was a new and powerful speaker, last night, named'Wentz. He was opposed to everybody and everything. Ile abused the newspapers, and said they had stakes in Inde pendence Square. no abused the Legislature, and said it never did anything good but to ad journ. He abused Councilmen, and said that they were corrupt. In short he despised everybody. He does not appear to be a mili tary man, as most of the Penn Squareites are, which may account for his not running into any blood-thirsty threats against the business men of Philadelphia. Setionsly speaking, are not the people who 'have worked so bard to get up this spurious agitation, getting a little ashamed of them= selves? The real active movers in this factious epposifion keep out of public view, though they are well enough known to those who are ac eustomed to look behind the scenes. They push forward ambitions people, who are burn ing to come before the public, and these have made themselves so supremely ridiculous that the managers have been compelled to with draw some of them from the stage. Thus two of the borers who were sent to Harrisburg proved such insullerable bores that , Senators are known to have demanded their recall as the price of their own services, and the demand was complied with. We have the names of tall chose parties, managers, borers and Senators. wp hope these little meetings will go on. They allbrd much amusement to the people. .They afford excellent opportunities for measur ing the capacities of some of our would-b,! great men ; and we doubt if they do a n y h arm to anybody. We can guess nearly all their anAhdynyny, and have now become so THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN-PHILADELPHIA, TUESDAY, MARCII_B,4B7O. baillened to their alarming allusions to palsy, bloodshed and ancestral tubes so to read thein without a shudder. STEAM ENGINEERS While the subject of the inspection of steam boilers is being agitated, it may be well to call some public attention to another and kindred bill now before the Legislature, which proposes to regulate the appointment of steam engineers, by reqUiring their examination and approval by a Board of Examiners, to consist of the City Inipector of Boilers and his assistants. At first sight, this looks like a very judicious piece of legialatiort. But the bill has been so bunglingly prepared, that its passage would in flict a serious, nuisance upon the whole manu facturing community. The law goes into ope ration «on and after the passage of the ast. After that day, 11'0 manufacturer can run his steam engine, and no engineer can earn a dol lar of wages, until this Board of Examiners has' been organized, its systerti of exarninationa arranged, and' the engineer passed its ordeal. A heavy penalty is imposed upon both em ployer and employed for any infraction of this law, and should it pass in its present shape, fif teen-hundred engineers would be'. thrown out of employment, and most of them will be kept out of work for many Months, awaiting their turn to be examined. There Is also another objection to 'this bill. The Inspector is no doubt qualified to examine engineers and to determine their fitnessifor their duties. He was appointed, himself,foy thoroughly competent board of practical me chanics. But he makes the appointments of his assistants at his own option, and it may be reasonably doubted whether all of his subordi nates are competent to sit in judgment upon the qualifications of the great body of engi neers in this city. It a Board of Examiners could in any way be constituted, of such ma terial as that which• selected Mr. Lovegrove, and the impracticable provision which puts a stop to all the !manufacturers of Philadelphia on and after the date of the passage of the bill were stricken out, the measure would be a good one. As it . now stands, it would be a very unwise and very troublesome law. The Free Trade subscription list, published in the. New York papers, foots up now about thirty-nine thousand dollars. Appeals are made to the collectors to hurry up in their work. Of course nearly all the subscriptions come from importing houses, or the. New York branches of European mercantile houses. Their ,profits, .under a new 'tariff, would be enormously increased, while American manu factures would be prostrated, arkd the amount of money sent out of the country annually to enrich foreign manufacturers would be multi plied ten-Sold. 'Conshlering all this, the amount subscribed for the Free Trade League is sur prisingly small. One of the morning papers of this city is carrying on a one-sided vox with the New York Tribune's , worthy Pennsylvania agent, Mr. J. R. Syplitit. We have nothing to do with the matter, but think it proper to state, in correction of one of the charges reiterated against the gentleman in question, that be was regularly admitted to the bar of Lancaster county, as a, practising attorney and counsellor at law, on the 24th day of April, 1862, in proof of which he holds the official certificate of the • Court at which he was admitted. • DRAIIIATIC. Feehter's "Hamlet:, Mr. Fechter presented at the Walnnt Street Theatre, last night, a new interpretation of "Hamlet." It was inevitable that any diver gence from the straight lima of tradition . in a personation of 'a character so familiar and surrounded by such time-honored usages, should excite wholly different emotions in the minds of the various spectators. Those who are the advocates of conservatism in, art, would find in a representation of this kind, only such violent and unreasonable departure from precedent as would make the actor liable to the charge of profanatien of a hal owed thing. Radicals would perceive in it the daring attempt of an original mind to give form and color to its own high conception ; to free itself from the trammels cast about the character by other men, and, bravely disre garding the, beaten track, to sfride out into the path Way which seemed to it to lead directly to the truth. Mr. Fechter's personation justifies itself. The artist who despises and rejects conventional rules because they are conven tional, and who can supply no sufficient rea son for his action, but, wandering away from the light of precedent,goes stumbling on wildly through the darkness, without definite aim or motive, Is a fool. But the man whO feels that he cannot find in strict adherence to tradition a fair opportunity to give full expression to the inspiration of his soul, and who re-creates anti casts anew .the character he has con ceivedr-sueh a man has genius ; and however strange his attempt may seem, however great may be the shock that it gives to our sense of propriety, we must accept it as at least worthy of respect and careful comparbien with the standard interpretations. Mr, Fechter's " Hamlet " has at any rate the high merit of originality. The peculiarities of costume in which the actor indulges have nothing whatever to do with his treatment of the character. These things are wholly for gotten in the presence of the personation it self. If he played in a blue coat and i)laid trousers, we should still have a representation which is independent of and superior to the material things with which it is surrounded. As we have asserted upon a previous occa sion in these columns, Mr. Fechter isw-o. I ly an actor. He does not depend in any large measure upon his elocutionary powers. His accent is very strong, and upon occa sions it is disagreeable. Here and thHre throughout the play be gives an inn phasis which evolves a now meaning from the text, and gives pleasant surprise by its excellence and aptness. Quite as often his reading is altogether incorrect, and the nicer shadihg of the language is clouded by an obscure and meaningless inflection. In many of • the exciting scenes his utterance is rapid, tumultuous and vehement.; he poiirs runt' tht l words in a torrent—with a writhe and a giisp. as. if ••the 'process gave JAM pain. The ear hi strained to catch the hurried, disjointe: ales ; and the listener, unfamilia r with the text, must wholly fail to comprehend his lan guage: if NIL Feebler ItepPnitt'd in any great degree upon his reading, he would tail ilk gracendly ; but he has nu such ol -peintenc , •. He leaves to ot her men the trek of ex their intellectual force upon the text, and of declaiming it in stately sentemes. it stthli,,s, to catch the spirit oft he charact er it. to whole nature; he concentraLs ell its passion IMO his owe soul, .awl Imtvlws ittertioSt poetic'incaningi mid' is transfigured' into perfect similitude of it. His action Upon the stage is the nicest physical 'interOptation that can be conceived. If be IUIS stammering lips and another tongue,he yet tuts,anch bodily grace that he can ' siettit ' ' to us clearly in the common language of hitmanity. We should understand fir. Pechter if he uttered not a word, but played only in pe.ntomime. His attitudes are filled with poetry and beauty ; whether he indulges in soliloquy or converses with his fellows; whether he gives expression to ftiOota3 emotion, or to scornful indignation and contempt, or plays the madman; his postures are graceful and elegant, and 'his gestures'are pertinent and natural. He gives always the highest physical expression to the highest intellectual concep tion; and the eye, never offended by a lapse into awkwardness, comprehends the meaning with even nicer, accuracy than ithe ear could understand a cold verbal interpretation. There is a magnetism—an electrical infin ,ence in Mr. Fechter's acting which places him in closest sympathy with his audience, and which, in certain episodes, gives him power to excite the enthusiasm of the spectators and to thrill them with emotion. Any man who has fine sensibility will perceive the wonder ful power of the actor in this respect, and will be quick to' acknowledge that such a quality is not the consequence of severe study and training, but rather a divine gift, the want of which cannot be supplied by art. Mr. Fechter produces all these effects, and is graceful and elegant, in spite of bodily disad vantages. He has a clumsy figure, a heavy German face, and an entire want of physical fitness for the character of " Hamlet," or for any of the , romantic personages, lovers and heroes, in representation of which he has won his fame. Instead of deriving assistance from great physical gifts, he is superior to remark able physical deficiencies. - Fechter's.gesticulation is incessant. He has a new movement, a new attitude for every shade of meaning ; and his mobile face adds to his power in this respect. Emotions Hash across it in quick succession ; and although at times there are grimaces which seem unnatu ral and in bad taste, it must be admitted that the play of the countenance generally is su perb, and altogether truer to nature than the cold, unsympathetic management of the face which is the common custom of our foremost actors. We think, indeed, that power in this respect is one of the - very first requireMents of good actor. It is of such importance that men who have had little other qualification for the stage have risen to fame by its judi cious,exorcise. perhaps Mr. Fechter,at times t' abuses it I but it is certain that those who do not watch Lm counienauuu very important part of his personation. Nearly all of the technical "business"of Fechter's " Hamlet" is new. Some of it, in our opinion, is not good. There are touches of melo-drama, now and then, which are unworthy so great an artist. Often he elaborates a point to painfulness, as if be was afraid the spectator would fail to catch his meaning with exactness. It is safe to take for granted the intelligence and quick perception of an audience such es that which was assem bled last night, and to indicate, rather thanto express minutely, the intention of the player. But much of the business was of a most ex-, cellent kind, and it not only excited pleasure by its novelty, but by its evident propriety and suitability. We will take occasion again to refer to it in 'detail. The total of the difference between this re presentation and that with which we have been made familiar by other men, is, that this' is natural, while the other is nearly altogether artificial. The latter is cold, studied, de clamatory, and nicely measured in every part ; this is bold, passionate and free as air. One is prosy with custom and precedent; the other is the poetical conception of ono man of. genius, One is an elegant but severe classical study; the other is ,instinet with tenderness, warm with generous feeling,natural with real suffering and crowned altogether with the loviiest graces of humanity. There will be wide differences of opinion upon this subject, as men are devoted.to 'the .acceptad rules of art; or ready to learn new lessons from origi nal genius; but this much we may freely as sert : that the man who will not admit that Fechter, despite his faults, is a great actor, is' either the slave of unreasoning prejudice or else entirely incompetent to express an opi nion of his merit. RAILROAD ENTERPRISE.—We have already called the attention of our capitalists to a rail road enterprise which appears to offer peculiar attractions to those seeking profitable and permanent investments. We refer to the Chicago, Danville and Vincennes road. This road is opening a great reach of hitherto in accessible country to the Chicago market, stretching along the eastern boundary of Illi nois, and the western section of Indiana, as tar youth as Bvansville, one of the most im portant shipping points on the Ohio-river. Fifty-five miles of the road are already in operation. The bonds of the Company have forty years to run, and are payable, principal and interest, in Gold. This new road, among many other important features, opens,up one of the most extensive and best coal-fields in the West. Tlie " Brazil" coal is known as one of the very best for making iron yet dis covered, and the facilities for bringing tbi' co al into Chicago, at a cheap rate, will consti tute one of the chief sourceii of profit for the Chicago, Danville and Vincennes road. The Chicago people appreciate the value of this new connection, and there can be no doubt that even before its completion, this railroad will have developed an amount of local trade thaf i will place its securities upon a most enduring and satisfactory basis.

The House bill to incorporate the West Chester and Phoenixville Railroad Company, in Chester county, called up by Mr. Brooke and passed finally. Hoot r.—An act to prohibit the erection of public buildings on Independence Square was discussed. . Mr. Davis said that the newspapers were .di vided in opinion. Those who owned prop erty in the neighborhood of the Square,which would be increased in value if the new pub lic buildings were erected upon it, were all iu favor of the desecration. Among these pa pers was the Aidger, which had half a mil lion invested in real estate. It was simply bunian nature for parties to regulate their views to their interests. The other pipers located from Third to Se venth streets, were niore unbiased, and held that it was not right thus to trample on some of the best and, most sacred feelings of the State. The original contract between the city and the State bad been that the Square should be kept as a public green forever. It was true that some subsequent legislation had au thorized some small buildings upon the ground, but that legislation could easily be annulled by the present act. Mr. Davis spoke at solve length of the sacred character of the square in the eyes o/ our countrymen. It was certainly, in their view, the garden spot of liberty, and hallowed by associations which had a mean ing. The man who would pile bricks and mortar upon this Spot would almost build upon the grave of his father. Mr. Davis asserted, in the course of his ro• marks, that this. Square had been one of the first spots visited by him on his lirsV trip to the city. Mr. Smith, of Dauphin, made a tqwech particularly in reference to the sanctity of the ground, and he, too, declared that it was One of the first spots to which his stops had tended on his first visit to the city. Mr. Josephs said, jocularly, that from his as sociation with the gentlemen who hiui just spoken, he would have supposed other places in the city . wonld have been more attractive to them. Mr. Davis replied—At the time of which he spoke, he bad not been acquainted with Mr. Josephs, but had visited the grounds. with country simplicity and honesty of heart. Mr. Elliot Was grieved 0 find the American eagle had been loosened and would take such •an extended oratorical flight. - He said that the city had legitimate claims on' the Square. At one time it had purchased a portion of ground, frouVe private association, for about fifty thousand dollars, and had erected a court houseovhich had cost over a hundred thou sand dollars.

Voorhees, Who had disposed of a military cadetship to a lad in Pennsylvania, had been befOre the Home Military Committee. This was the first be knew of such action. He took notice of it thus promptly, for if you give a lie twenty-four hours start, you can never catch it. He never appointed a cadet to the Mili tary Academy.

Mr. Farnsworth, interrupting, said it was well be (Butler) declined to be interrupted, as. his statement couldn't stand interruption. Messrs.
