EVENING BULLETIN.
Wednesday, March 9, 1970.
07" Our advertising friends are crowding
upon us to such an extent that we are con
strained to change the usual arrangement of
mar forms, and place our foreign corres
pondence and much 'other interesting reading
matter, as well as many of our advertisements,
on our inside pages. It is our constant aim to
increase the attractiveness of all portions of the
-EVENING BULLETIN, and our past success has
naturally increased the pros sure of advertise
our columns, until both the gen
eral reader and the advertiser finds that there
am no "corners," but that at all points they are
met by attractive reading and the latest and
most important business announcements.
POPIILAR BIGHTS.
The Legislature yesterday, led by Mr.
Mlisha W. Davis, attempted to take away from
the people of this city the right of determin
mg the location of the' public buildings.
Neither the present nor any preceding Legisla
tive body has ever undertaken such a flagrant
•itrage upon the rights of this community as
ie involved in the enactment of a law which,
'while it pretends to submit the question of the
jpablie buildings to a popular vote, forbids the
free choice of the people, by prohibiting a vote,
upon one site which is undoubtedly the first
choice of the great majority of the business
men of r hiladelphia. If our citizens'are willing
to have their right to a free expression of their
preference in this important matter rudely
taken away from them by. Mr. Elisha W. Davis
and the faction who have worked with him in
Lying this great insult upon them, they have
lest somewhat of their ancient independence.
There is something so coolly insolent in this
declaration by the Legislature that the people
of Philadelphia shall not only not erect build
ings upon Independence Squate, but shall not
even express their wish to do so, t'at we still
believe that the calmer judgment of the Senate
and of the Governor will prevail to counteract
such unheard-of legislation.
Mr. Elisha W. Davis, whatever else may be
thought of his qualifications or disqualifica
tions as a legislator, has never been
considered a fool. And when he
rises in his place, and talks such absurd non
sense as be uttered yesterday, about the "sa
cred soil " of Independence Square, and the
memories of his innocent and unsophisticated
elaildbo od, and piling bricks and mortar on the
grave of his father, no one will do him the
diecredit of supposing that he believed a word
that be was saying. No one knew better than
Mr. Davis that all this talk was the merest
buneombe and twaddle. In the course of
lime, the people of Philadelphia will learn
what is, as yet, the secret history of this Penn
Square movement, and will see what the pri
vate interests are that are being subserved by
all this outcry.
As a part•of the old cry of " Stop thief!" the
engineers of the Penn Square job have under
taken to impugn the motives of the respectable
journals of philadelphia which have advocated
the erection of public buildings on Penn Square.
Because most of the newspapers of Philadelphia
have sought the business centre of the city as
their natural location, General Wm. B. Thomas,
and Mr. Elisha W. Davis, and the Broad-street
orators are all convinced that these journals are
only actuated by selfish motives. Openly con
fessing that their own rule of conduct is the
selfish one of considering nothing but "Num
ber One," these gentlemen cannot imagine that
the Public Ledger, for example, can have any
better or more honest motive, in the expression
of • its opinions on subjects of public interest.
There is no foundation for such aspersions as
these upon the sincerity of any respectable
journal in Philadelphia, and their utterance
does little credit to those who have resorted to
their use.
For ourselves, we have no objection to the
settlement of this , vexed question by a vote of
the people. - We have pointed out; from time
to time, the advantages of Independence
Square, and the disadvantages of Penn Square.
We have, again and again, exploded the insin
cerity and foolishness of the pretence that
there could be any desecration of any of our
Itevolutionary traditions by putting the unused
round south of Independence Hall to the
highest uses, short of the worship of God, to
'tibielt any edifice can possibly be devoted:
When shallow orators have made themselves
ridiculous by foolish speeches, we have met
them with the only weapon which suits their
ease. When wiser men have talked sensibly
upon the subject, we have offered them a.rgu-
scents Which heYe never yet - been anSWered,
because they cannot be answered. When mil
have borrowed the livery of God to serve, the
devil in,". and have talked unmeaning patriot
ism to cover up their privata schemes
to obtain large building jobs, or-enhance the
value of their real-estate or the real.:estate of
corporations for which they may be interested ;
or to promote their political popularity,wo have
done what is the duty of every honest news
paper, hi exposing the hypocrisy of these ap
peals to the patriotism of the people, showi4
by the light of undisputed history, that all the
talk about the " sacredness" of Independence
Liquare is the idlest of 1 ictions and imaginations.
And when the Legislature flatly undertakes to
refum to the people of Philadelphia the right to
a free and full expiession of thely opinion on this
' question of the paidie bitilaings, we say that it
ir!t: flagrant outrage upon popillar rights which
will surely return to plague the iuveuties. 1.,
all this, the E LULLS:TIN and the other
journals 'Which
_gave eXpreS•sd the opinions
which they hold for thetweives and th: busi
ness cmantib ily, have only done their proper
and honest duty, in meetiug the ridiculou s . Alll
ridicule, the earnest , Ina
rant with hiqi.ry and tact, and the seliiih
/13110eritical tnith exposure.
THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN , 4IIILADELPHIA, WEDNESDAY, - MARCH -9, 1870.
THE COIIIBLE:-%1N3rilEal.
We trust that there is really some definite
intention to ameliorate the state of our paving,
and as the first step towards it, Councils should
pass an ordinance directing that the Railway
Companies, whenever they repair their paving,
shall put down wooden pavement. This is
nothing more than a simple act of justice to
wards those who use the streets, and no hard
ship to the companies, as the saving in horses
would undoubtedly amount to far more than
the interest upon the expense. The Railway
Companies take the best part of every street.
In our way of , making a rounded pavement
sloping towards a gutter on each side, it is only
on the top of the curve that a vehicle can well
drive, especially , as the sides are generally
paved with large stones having deep hollows
between them.
As few wheels pass over the space between
the rails to keep the stones rough with their
grinUing motion, these stones become polished
by the friction of the horses' shoes, until the
foothold is totally insecure, and the horses pull
to great disadvantage. Soon the strain tells
upon the animals, especially as the projecting
curves of the stones are apt to cause the whole
weight of the fore part of the body of the horse
to fall upon the frog instead of the crust of the
hoof. Passengers in the street cars, sitting
sideways as they do, do not see much of the
horses ; but even the most unobservant must
have noticed how many lame horses are driven
by the companies. Even this, however, does
not tell the whole story by any means. The
railroad companies find constantly in their
stables horses which, without being otherwise
unsound, have their feet and forelegs so jarred
and battered by the cobble-stones, that they
can no longer be worked, and these are dis
posed of to farmers, who use them for field
work, where the motion is slow and the footing
soft. Some
and
in this way, but the in
jury is great and the suffering must be terrible.
Indeed, the case of these hundreds of horses,
exposed to daily torture on oar streets, should
attract the attention of the Society for the Sup
pression of Cruelty to Animals.
Whilst the need is great for reform through
out almost all our thoroughfares, there•
is nothing that calls for immediate attention so
much as this railway matter. Next in import
ance to it is the rendition of Broad street south
of Callowhill street. The horrible condition of
that street has alitady cost one life and many
broken wagons, and steps should be taken at
once to put down a wooden pavement. If we
are not mistaken, the portion north from Cal
lowhill street to Coates is already under con
tract, and sooner or later must be 'raved by the
parties holding that contract, so that the pre
sent delay saves nothing whatever. As it is to
be paid for, we might as well have the use of
it now as later.
THE INDIAN (MENTION.
Senator Wilson, the Chairman of the Com
mittee on Military Affairs, yesterday introduced
into the Senate a bill, which we print in fall in
another column, "to promote the civilization
of Indians, and to prepare them for the righti r
and duties of citizenship." The advocates of
the war and of the peace policy will both unite
in thanking Senator Wilson for introducing a
bill so well calculated to promote the adoption
of a just and permanent policy in dealing with
the Indians. We observe that the proposed
Board of Inspectors includes the
Secretary of the Interior, who will act as
President, and also the Commissioner
of Indian Affairs, who, under • the
Secretary,is the bead of the Indian office. The
Board is gnly to deal with Indians in amity
with the United States; therefore it does not
propose to deal with the hostile Indian who is
properly under the control of the War De
partment. As soon as any tribe or baud ceases
hostility, it will be banded over to the Board
of Inspectors, which is virtually a Board of
Civilization. The best men in our land will no
doubt be seleoted, and as they will be ade
quately compensated, they can give their whole
time to this important work.
By the aid of such men, Indians will readily
agree to modify treaties, by which ge'w-paws
and money are distributed annually .to the
injury of the Indian. Frauds will be pre
vented, and the civilizing process commenced
successfully by men whose reputation is at
stake, and who are likely to continue from
administration to administration, as long as
they evince fitness for the work.
We are sure that our philanthropic citizens
will hail with pleasure the advent of this bill,
and will be ready to welcothe Senator Wilson
to the city of William. Penn, at his promised
visit on the 25th instant, at the invitation
,ol*
the Temperance Society.
The result of the Independent Temperanu•
ticket in New Hampshire, yesterday, is another
practical illustration of the folly of attempting
to establish temperance 'principles by wedging
them In between the issues of the great parties
of Ihe country, in a general election.
The Temperance candidate for Governor
was the Re+. Dr. Barrows, a prominent mem
ber of the Methodist Church, of which he was
an honored Presiding Elder. It was claimed
that his personal and religious character would
add greatly to the strength of the Temperance
ticket, and leading Temperance men expressed
the opinion that his vote would bring out so
much extra strength as to
: preycrit, the result
from being a fair measure of the actual pro
gress of the temperance movement. But with
all the intrinsic force of the temperance ques
tion and all the special personal and
Church influence of Dr. Barrows, his
vote amounts nearly to nothing ! Amherst
gives him two votes in nearly three hundred;
Dover gives him one out of sixteen hundred
votes; Concord gives him twenty-three votes
in twenty-five hundred 1 and so on all over the
State. One hundred and seventy towns cast
r,5,c00 votes, out of which the Temperance
ticket cast 080 votes. Is : ,any stronger argu
ment than this needed by. our Temperance
friends lu this part of the world?
Eepresentative William Elliott, certainly one
of the very bebt men iu the Pennsylvania Le
;Ablate:re, and almost always found on the right
side of every important question, deserves
IMO credit for his sensible speech, yesterday,
in reply to Mr. Davis, whose spread-eagle era
tot y wilted-down as completely before the pme
'kill- common-sense of Mr. Elliott., as it did
belOre the keen home-thrubt of Mr. Josephs'

PRAIIATIC.
—The French Dramatic Company, at the
Amateurs' Drawing Room, had their largest
audience, thus far, last evening. The play was
a well-written serious five-act piece by Octave
Feuillet, called Dalila. A young man of
musical genius, named " Andre Roswein"
(Moreau) falls a prey to the fascinations of the
" Princesse Falcombri " (Mme. Moreau) who
is the "Dalila" of the play. His honest love
for a good girl, the daughter of his old profes
sor, is sacrificed to this woman, and so are his
ambition, his pride and at last his health and
his life. litany of the situations are very ef.
fective, and several scenes are extremely af
fecting. The parts were all well
filled, the Moreaus, Juignet and Rous
seau being particularly good. Theresources of
the little theatre were somewhat taxed, but
each of the five or six •different scenes was
admirably and appropriately set. The play
was of a higher order than any yet produced,
and its success was complete. There will be
no performance this evening, but to-morrow
evening a lively four-act piece will be pro
duced, called Le Voyage de M. Perrichon, with
the full strength of the company. It is the
joint work of MM. E. Labiche and Ed. Mar
tin, and was played for two hundred succes
sive nights in Paris. The management an
nounce that jthe matinee performance.adver
tised for Saturday is postponed, and that an
Extra Performance will be given, by request, t
Saturday evening.
The EnaMak Opera.
The Parepa-Rosa Opera Company presented
Martha at the Academy of Music, last evening,
in a very handsome manner, and to the satis
faction of the large audience. To-night
Weber's last opera, Oberon, will be produced
for the first time in this country, with a strong
cast. The!. will be a matinee to-morrow,
when The Marriage ofrigaro will be given for

THE CENTRAL lOWA RAILROAD.—This HOW
railroad project, which supplies a direct line
or rail from St. Paul to St. Louis, traversing
the rich and improving region of Central
lowa, .is beginning to attract =oh attention
among railroad men and capitalists. The con
struction of the Northern Pacific road is
already commenced, and one of the principal
feeders of this great trans-Continental line
from Lake Superiorito Puget's Sound will be
the Central lowa road, which will be the most
direet route to the Smith and Southwest, the
distance from Duluth and St. Paul to St. Louis
by this line being 147 miles shorter than by
any existing route. It will, therefore, have a
monopoly of the trade between Minne
sota and the eountry along the line
of the Northern Pacific and the , whole
Southern country. The importance of
this line, as the main outlet for she Northwest.
ern trade, is shown by the fact that Jay Cooke
& Co., E. W. Clark & Co, and other leading
bankers and railroad capitalists, have now
been associated in the work of selling the First
Mortgage 7 per cent. Gold Bonds of this new
road. Since these bonds Were first offered
in November last, they have been taken to the
amount of more than one million dollars. Ai ,
less than three millions remain to be disposed
of, and as the new agencies we have named
are stimulating the demand, the entire issue
(limited to $16,000 per mile) is likely to be ,
closed out at an early day. The advertisement
elsewhere in to-day's paper gives information
as to where pamphlets and maps showing the
situation and main features of this important
road may be obtained.

CENTRAL RAILROAD OF lOWA,
At 95, Free from Tax.
This railroad runs 234 miles north and south
through the finest and most thickly settled
portion of the magnificent State of lowa, and
the only link wanting to •onnect the railway'
centres at St. Louis and St. Paul by an un
broken line, 147 miles shorter than any exist
ing route. This road offers many advantages.
The building of the railroad north from SI.
Paul to Duluth, at the head of Lake Superior,
where five railroads will soon centre—the con
struction of the Northern Pacific. Railroad,
already begun—and the rapid development of
a new and productive country in Minnesota
and the Northwest, must furnish a large
Southern traffic. As the Upper Mississippi is
frozen over during the ,Winter,and its naviga
tion is often uncertain during the Summer,
from low water, this road must have at all
times a large amount of transportation, and a
monopoly of the business at some seasons of
the year. Its connections with other lines in
terested by mutual , ownership or running ar
rangements, will give it almost the entire
north and south travel between its terminal
points and their vicinity.
This road will have a great advantage over
any other Western line in carrying the best
quality of coal from where it is abundant in
Southern lowa to Northern lowa and Minne
sota, where none is to be found, and in secur
ing return freights of lumber, for which the
demand is very great.
Forty-six miles of the line are just com
pleted, and eighty-eight miles more are
graded. An abundant supply of iron, ties,
and other materia )OMB-been contracted for.
The Company Loewe a large and daily increas
ing surplus of money on hand, and the stock
subscriptions, and the sales of bonds, give
them ample means to push the work forward,
so that, with favorable weather, it is expected
that the whole, line will be completed this
season.
SECURITY OF THE INVESTMENT.
So far as we can learn, every completed
railroad in the Northwest is not only earning
the interest on its bonds, but a dividend on
its stock, and we believe the CENTRAL OF
lOWA must occupy an equally strong finan
cial position.
The amount of. Bonds to be issued is but
$16,000 per mile,or less than four millions,in all
Of which over One Million have
already - been SOM.
WE BELIEVE THERE WILL BE NO
MORE FAVORABLE TIME TO SELL GO
VERNMENTS. AND DUI' REALLY FIRST. ,

After a full examination, we have accepted
an Agency for the Sale of the above First
Mortgage Bonds, and desire to recommend
them to our customers as thoroughly safe, as
well as profitable, investment. Wo have no
hesitation in saying that, in our opinion, the

Ie Despatch to the Phila. Evening Benette.)
Rt/NTllionOlf, March 9.—The thoroughfare
leading to what is here known as a prison, but
which looks _more like a barn, has been
crowded since early morn with a throng of
men and women sincerely desirous of ob
taining admission within the jail yard to wit
nese the double execution of Guttleib Bohner,
alias Charley, and Albert Bodenberg, both of
whom have been under sentence of death for
a month past. The crime of which they were
convicted, the details of which were published
in the Buttuvin of Monday, was one of the
most atrocious ever committed in this country
and in many respects resembled that of Anton
Probst, the murderer of theDeering family in
Philadelphia. Ito barbarity has served to kin
dle a flame of excitement among the residents
of this- county which can hardly be said to be
allayed even now that the perpetrators are
confined within the four sides of their coffins.
There have been hundreds of applications to
Sheriff D. B. P. Neely for cards of admission
to see the banging, but he has been compelled
to refuse at least three-fourths, owing to the
smallness of the yard in which the scaffold
has been constructed.
The Jail Yard Packed.
Botwitbstanding FO many declinations,
there were at least three hundred admitted.
It was a perfect jam of people, and put one to
mind of the scene enacted on the occasion of
the execution of Bridget t New
Brunswick, two years since, when Durgin,ale deputy
sheriffs were compelled to force a passage
through the throng, order that the con
demned woman might wend her way from the
cell to the scaffold. Yet, comparatively speak.
ing, good order was maintained from the time
of the entrance of the prisoners to the yard
until the solemn scene was closed. The im
mense height of the platform, come sixteen
feet above the ground, afforded every one a
good chance to witness , the entire perform
ance.
The Outaftle With*.lles.
In addition to the number inside the en
*leisure, some hundreds viewed the scene from
the neighboring housetops and frotn scaffolds
which had been thrown up on the outside of
She walls by enterprising individuals who de:
aranded and obtained a fee of $2 .50 for Sand
ing -room for one. it is said that the Sheriff,
in order to favor these speculators, had the gal
lows built so high that their easterners cosid
be win:it-sets without any difficulty, and in
obliging his friends he bad the instrument of
death b 0 situated that the condemned men
have had it in full sight. since Saturday la.st,
when the last peg was driven in it. Yesterday
hundreds were allowed to view the scaffold,
and many were the peculiar remarks made
with reference to it, and many were dubious
about its answering the purposes for
which it was constituted. However, •it has
stood the test. - •
A Rillinose of the Prhoosters.-Itohner
eldetlly Platten.
Quito a number of these people were also
favored with a glimpse of the prisoners, who
were confined in the only two cells in the
buildings. Bohner occupied the first one, and
since the beating be received on Friday last,
when be made the desperate attempt to
escape, has kept to his cot. He was indeed a
sullen creature, hardly speaking in a civi
manner to the Rev. Mr. Steckel, who has made
many attempts to bring win to a realisation o
the terrible poiiition which lie occupied. The
reverend gentleman had brought Linn some
paper which he had requested to be furnished
him, and on receiving it the almost brute
. found fault because it was not accompanied
with pen and ink. lie finally became molli
fied and accepted of a lead-pencil, with which
to write his last statement. A gentleman
present then desired him to write his auto
graph for him, but this he positiVely refitsed,
accompanying the refusal with, a guttural mur
muring in German. The minister then mule
a similar request, with a similar result. His
appearance is far more repulsive than Prohst's .
and the only wonder now is that ,anybody has
ever felt himself safe in his company. _During
the afternoon he had another talk with Her.
14r.Bteckel, and ho still adhered to his pre;:
violas statements, that he remained outside of
the house of the Peightals while his companion
performed the bloody work.
A Talk with Bodeaberg.
Van Bordenherg, or Bodenherg, which ap
pears
to be his proper name, occupied the re
maining cell, and his conduct was Just the re
verse of Bohner. Ho remained at his cage
door, and shook hands with all who spoke
with him, and entered freely into conversa
tion. On being questioned as to the afthir he
reiterated the same story, which appears to
have gained`eredence among this community,
and which has gained for Kw a genuine sym
pathy. Indeed, had Bohner admitted that he
wan the only one who participated in the ac
tual commission of murder, it is believed that
a telegram would have been forwarded hy the
Judge and DistrictrAttorney who tried him to
Governor. Cleary, soliciting a reprieve for
Bodeuberk. He announced - himself ready to
die, but still thought it hard that be should be`
hung fora crime which be,did not commit and
of which be was unaware until some hours'
afterward. , ..
The Conduct attn. anerlff.
This morning shoWs several seaffolds, ad
ditional to those of last night, outside the
walls. A number of poles and ladders have
also appeared during the night. An attempt
was made to stop these Proceedings but the
parties volunteered bail and insisted on finish
ing the work. The sheriff was appealed to
with reference to it, but be has declined in
terfering. The better class of the community

Irina' Statement of Mohnen
Bohner wrote a final statement this 'morn
ing, in which, be mays both participated in the_
crime ; and.he further states that Boden berg,
did all the shooting himself. He alleges
Ifodenlierg did all the plotting for the robbery,
Murder and arson. Ho admits that lie (Bohner),
indicted the injuries on Mrs. l'eigbtal, with a
lire-Shovel, and also states that after murder
ing the family and thing the dwelling, both
went to the stable, where they, had a difficulty
about mounting a horse. He says that Bolen
berg there threatened to shoot him, and he
drew his pistol in revenge. He denies that be
is an infidel, stating that be believes in God
and eternity. He also reflects severely upon
Bodenberg's pretended conversion.
The Execution.
At a few minutes after twelve o'clock the
prisoners were marched from their cells, ac
companied by the Rev. MeasrA. James C.
Clark, Reuben E. Wilson, L. D.Btreckel and
M.G. Earhart. Both bad their hands bound
behind them, and Bohner, to the surprise of
everybody, made no resistance while
his hands were being bound. The scaffold was
mounted, neither man showing any trepida
tion. The legs were bound, and prayer was
offered at twenty-five minutes after twelve.
Bodenberg delivered a statement in German,
calling upon Bohne.r to exculpate him from all
complicity with the murder, and to declare
the truth, which he (the speaker) declared to
be that Bobner bad committed the deed with
out assistance.
Bohner replied, denying everything, saying
both bad a band in the deed. Another prayer
was offered, and the ministers bade both
"good by." Bodenburg then said : "God,
forgive me my sins and take my soul into Thy
Kingdom. Amen. Amen."
At the signal of the Sheriff the rope was
pulled, and the drop fell at forty minutes pant
twelve.

ging, carrying away the whole starboard

gear, and sunk, so far as I have been able to
learn, in about fifteen minutes after the col
lision. Four officers and fifty-seven men were
saved, in two boats. I respectfully enclose a

"I have already communicated the sad in

to forward this by the American sailing-bark
Benefactress, which vessel sails to morrow for
San Francisco. The Pacific mail is now over

NISI nuns—Justice Read.—H. , B. Main &
Co. vs. David Winternitz. Before reported.
The case for the plaintifTh occupied the atten
tion of the Court untitthis morning, when the
defence opened. It was alleged that two of ;
the witnesses for the plaintiM called to
establish the conspiracy are not worthy of
credit, and they were actuated Ist a desire'to
revenge themselves upon the defendant. It
Was further alleged that instead of David
Wiaternitz --being concerned with Max
Wintertutz, . and. therefore guilty of a con
spiracy to cheat and defraud the plaintiM,
be was the first to' charge his brother Max
with lying, when he asserted that be bad been
robbed of b7,6C0 on the train. The ease is still
on trial.
The Law Repealed.
There is a serious misapprehension in the
public mind in relation to the income tax.
Petitions are being sent to Washington for the
repeal of the law. It should be distinctly mi
. derstood that the income ta...‘c law was repealod
by limitation on the :31st day of December,
1869. The tax now being assessed is for the
year 1869. After it is paid no other income
tax can be collected or assessed without the
enactment of an entirely new law, which is
not likely to be brought about. The repeal of the
old law is final and unconditional. It takes
etiCet as soon as the nix for 180 is paid. A
bill passed the House under the previous
9ue‘tion gag rule a few days ago, providing
for the assessment and collection elan income
tax for one year only (1870), but it met with
disastrous defeat in the Senate. It is not at
all likely that Congress will put such a need
less burden upon the p,,ople again in face of
the unanimous protest of the, entire press of
the country. The occasion that called for it
has passed away forever. Let us have no ,
more income tax laws.
