THE CITY OF BOSTON.
Theliew York Tribune of yesterday ven
tures the assertion that the despatch published
by the EVENING BULLETIN on Wednesday
last, in reference to the safety of the City of
Boston, was owing 4 4 to the indomitable in
veracity of the marvelously-enterprising Puma-
DELPAIA BULLETIN." The Evening Tele
graph, the inquirer, and the Age eagerly quote
the Tribune's remarks, and may therefore be
included in what we have to say in reply,
which is simply this: In the recent words of.
the New York Tribune, " the author of the
above assertion: is a liar—a graceless, shame
less, villainous, detestable liar." . Thislanguage
is strong, and we should not apply it to any
newspaper but the Tribune. But that paper
is so fond of this particular form of strong lan
guage, that we are willing to copy it for once,
especially as, in this case, it is not really
stronger than the occasion justifies. Whether
_ e_wtba..t, this
charge against the EVENING BULLETIN was
false, at the time it was written, we have no
means of knowing, but,—we again quote the
Tribune's own language to the World,--"the
Editor will make himself responsible for the
fie if •he does not explicitly retract it. It con
terns'his own reputation solely that he does
this or does it not. The lie is, promptly ex
posed, and it had never a shadow of founda
tion." , .
The EVENING BULLETIN had no more
knowledge of or connection with the despatch
referred to than it has with any apparently ac
eurate news that reaches its office. There was
no reason whatever to doubt the -correctaess
of the statement set afloat in London by the
agent of the Associated Press, and when we
received the more detailed statement, a . few
minutes later than the original announce
ment, we published it in perfectly good faith,
stopping our press to correct the whole state
ment, the moment the coptradiction reached
us. So far as the responsibility of the EVEN
ING Bur.i.axiN is concerned, this is a precise
statement of the facts of the case, and we call
upon the Philadelphia papers which have been
in such baste to disseminate the Tribune's
slander, to inform their readers of our unquali
fied denial of the whole disgraceful charge. '
Ane now, having denounced this hypocriti
„eat attempt to fasten this unfortunate story
upon the EVENING BULLETIN, in terms no
stronger than it deserves, we desire our readers
plainly to understand that this hue-and-cry has
for its beginning and' end, nothing more nor
less than a desire to distract public attention
from the fault of the Associated -Press, with
which this whole story of the City of Boston
originated. It was first made public in London
. by the agent of the Associated Press, and
through him reached the agent of the American
Press AssOciation. Ten days . before, the
Limning Tel graph printed the news of the safe
arrival of the City of Boston at Liverpool, but
we did not think it necessary to attribute the
fact to our neighbor's ” inveracity." The most
careful and conscientious newspaper is, of
course, liable to the occasional publication of
news which afterwards proves to be untrue.
But there is not one of the Philadelphia news
papers Which have given currency to the
Tribune's lie that does not know that the'
EVENING Bur.r.linsi has never given its read
ers one line of news, of the truth of which
there was any doubt at the time of publication.
We have never had . but one rule on thiS
subject, and never expect to have. •
One word more, in illustration of the animus
of this infameus assault upon the , EVENING
BULLETIN. Mr. Simonton, the New York
agent of the Associated Press, has published a
card, in which he asserts that the cable tele
grams of the American Press Association are
di pure fabrications." We might well repeat
the Tribune's favorite formula in reply to this
gross falsehood. We have repeatedly seen the
original cable telegrams of the American Press
Association, and on several notable occasions
they have anticipated the news of the old
monopoly. Its Petersburg despatch of Febru
ary 24th, ler instance, in reference to the death
of Mr. Burlingame, was appropriated by the
Associated Press, and sent to its newspapers
without credit. The cable telegrams of the
American Press Association are not " pure
fabrications." We help to pay good gold for
them to a trustworthy agent in London, every
week, and ought to know.
JUST HOW IT WM) DONE.
The testimony taken yesterday at ;Janis
burg by the Senate Committee in the Watt
Diamond contested election .case supplies us
'with some interesting details of the frauds per
petrated by the Democracy at the elections4iu
this city last October. Mr. Laurence Ball, a
gentleman who drank in true Democratic
principles ith his earliest breath, in New
York city, testified that he visited MIA
delpbia on election day and threw in his littl
toontribiftion of votes in behalf of the party
his love: Be relates that a certain George A.
Brown, also a New York Democrat, engtged
twenty-five persons, Mr. Ball included, to come
here and vote according to the instructions of
31r. Brown and of the ithiladelphians for whom
lir. Brown was the agent. Brown prondied
to give each member of the squad twenty-five
doflarS, and to secure them from arrest if their
THE DAILY EVENING 81.1 k E PHIA; SATURDAY, ARCH 19,:1870..z
min
iniquitous deeds should be discovered. It
was safe - Wgivt - this 'latter assurance, seeing
that the employers of these repeaters, ,In T a
measure, controlled ourpolice force.
Ball and hia band came, and iihen the polls
opened they went to work. Bill testifies that
he was supplied with a number of " full,
traight, Democratic tickets, including the
names of Parker or Packer, and of the candi
date. for Senator." Be is not certain how
often he voted, but he thinks "eleven times. 7
We are' afraid Mr. 13all's earnest anxiety to
avoid perjury induced him to underrate the
figures. But although Ball - cannot remember
Lill the polls visited by him, he admits that he
and the squad voted at the following places :
Cal penter and Fifth streete,Tsnth and Carpenter
streets,Twelftli and Carpenter streeta,Carpentar
street and Passyuuk road, South and Charles
streets, Ninth and Marietta streets, and "right
back of the . Continental. Rotel, in Sansom
street." At the latter poll,Ball voted the Dem
ocratic ticket thrice, assuming a different name
each time. The members of his valiant little
band did likewise,and none of them were chal
enged either at this place or at any of the
others.
Baying done such good service for the De
mocracy it might be thought that the managers
of that party, and of Ball's supplementary
party, would have overwhelmed the repeating
squad with thanks and cash and sent it home
rejoicing. Mr. Ball thought this would have
been the correct thing, but it appears that even
his long association with Democracy had failed
to acquaint him with the methods adopted by
that organization in conducting financial ope
rations. When Ball asked for payment of the
twenty-five dollars promised for his services,
Mr. Brown, acting under instructions, curtly
consigned him to realms• of eternal August,
and advised him to draw for his funds noon .
an unmentionable personage in whose fiery do
main a greenback could not exist for one mo
ment. We cannot sympathize with Mr. Ball in
his disappointment. Indeed, in addition to
suffering this foss, we should rejoice to have
him sent to the penitentiary ; but we cannot
express our want of admiration for the politi
cians who could buy a human being for
twenty-five dollars and then cheat him out of
the purchase money.
It must be remempereu mar, Llllb
pany of Ball's was but a fragment of the grand
army of repeaters who came to Philadelphia,
and strove as earnestly as Ball for the success
of the Democracy. New York sent other
squads ; Baltimore, Camden, Wilmington, Jer
sey City, and other towns in and out of the
State, each sent quotas of men for similar, ser
vice, and every, unwashed Democrat in the lot
voted the party ticket just as often as he could
induce anybody to take it.
It is not worth while to make any comment
upon this testimony. No honest man can read
it, as it stands, without regarding with horror
and disgust the party which strives, with such
methods, to defeat the popular will, and to
turn every election into a farce. If no other
reason existed for doubting the right of Mr.
Diamond to the seat in the Senate, this should
be sufficient. The mere. fact that this much
illegal voting was done in his behalf, with the
certainty that there was much more which
can never be discovered, ought to insure the
endorsement of Mr. Watt's claim to the seat.
INDEFEN DEN CE BALL ATi AUCTION.
There appears to by no doubt whatever that
our Legislature at one time adopted the extra
ordinary design of auctioneering off the State
House and all ifs contents, of all sorts, "to
gether with the lot of ground on which it
stands." Extraordinary as this statement may
seem, a reference to the 110th and 111th pages
of the printed Acts of Assembly for 1866, will
place it beyond a doubt.
Bow, then, was this outrage prevented ? By
the city ; that city that is now abused as desir
ing to desecrate Independence Square. lf, at
this day, we hare any independence Square on
which to build, if we have any State House
relative to which a ridiculous cry of " desecra
tion" can be raised, we owe it to the interven
tion of the citYi, And now,a desperate effort is
being made to induce the Legislature—the
same body that had appointed at a former time
commissioners to make this auction—to step
in and bind the city hand and foot in restraint
of its intention to consecrate the site by. erect,-
ing upon it a noble TeMple of Justice,an honor
and pride to the city.
Both the State-louse and the Square are
'quite safe in the city's bands, and will remain
so. We cannot believe that the Legislature,
aftera calm consideration of what has been
the Nand of each in this matter, can think it
right to interfere at this day with the city in
making a:disposition of the ground which the
Legislature itself has expressly authorised.
We believe' that the members fr m other
parts of the State have a wrong impression
dexterously fastened upon them, under which
the House has acted, but which the Senate
will see through in good time.
"DESECRATION."
In the opinion of 'a certain clique of active
wire-pullers, it was no " desecration " to let
out Independence Hall to a library company
for their library. Nor to have held there a
public exhibition, with an admission fee of
UO cents, payable in advance for inspecting the
wonders of " Peale's Museum." Occupation
also by the Legislature, by Councils, by
various Courts ; these were all proper. The
colonization of the main hall by cake stands,
apple women, hot-coffee sellers, &c., iiitc.; these
are all proper and right.
But when it is proposed to erect a noble and
substantial pile of buildings on the vacant lot,
south of the building, and thereby to relieve it
from all those miscellaneoto uses and misuses,
establishing it as a relic of revolutionary days,
to be visited, cherished and preserved by the
present and all future generations ; then, and
not 1111 then, do we hear this wail of "desecra
tion." • Inconsistency exceeding this can
scarcely be conceived.
The Inquiret says "something is due to the
respectable journalists of Philadelphia." Would
it not be better for every newspaper to confine
self to the collection of its own debts?
Our appreciative readerit - Will observe that
three paintings of importance arc mentioned
in the advertisement of M. D'ilnyvetter's pic
ture cal(' at Barker's Gallery, New York. The
auction will be held on the evenings of next
Wedneeday and ThurAay. Van Writhes paint
ing of Eerneralda and the goat, from lingo's
novel, has been much admired ; Ferdinand
rauwels, who contributes "The Court of
Jane T. of Naples," is the artistivlio painted
the large allegorical picture now at bur-Union
League, and is a Profeisor, and an artist rank
ing;very close to his casapatriOt.Gallait ; while
Schaeffels, who paints the large "'tattle of
Waleheron," a subject fully illustrated in Mot
ley's Mich history, is a pupil of the late cele
brated Baron LeYs, and inherits his peculiar
closeness in studying and representini
medieval manners. Mr. D'Huyvetter's co -

The Disappearance of Collector 11%11 ey.
There is much excitement and anxiety in
the Revenue Department this morning, on ac

The best enjoyment in the playing of the
French company last night was .hadover the
introductory piece, a strong little one-act in
trigue, with a moral like hartshorne. M.
3loreau was the ingenious husband who par
ii s: the menace of domestic unhappiness by
making his tempted wife and her. lover hate
each Other; it is a role having a quite different
ideal from the naturally Mild-featured 3foreau,
but the energy of his reading redeemed his
natural disqualification. Mme.. Moreau ; as
the fickle wife, was particularly love
able and womanly and beautiful. Brutus,
'ache Wear, 21. 1 this comedy is called,
is a piece almost worthy of Plautus. where a
racy situation is seasoned with a fine cynical
philosophy. The principal farce, Le Bourreate
(ha Cranes, in three acts, was less interesting.
but it brought out Juignet. Rousseau and
Getot in their most extravagant absurdities,
and kept the audience in a roar of laughter.
The performance to-day is an afternoon one—
a repetition of Labiche and Martin's Voyage
e di. Perrichon, in which Edgard is so despe
rately funny. •

.the "demand for them is so great that an extra

our bonds are rising in value and popularity
inlirussia ; but all Germany is flooded with
the wort a , e bonds of the yarj ous,_railroa•

Supposed Coyne of Collector Mailers
Disappearance.
IZZ'w Yotrif, Mar s ch I.9.—The view 11Ir: Pail,
Deputy Collector, takes of the matter of
Bailey's absence is shared by Bailey's family
and more•intimate friends, and is that, owiag
to the pressure Upon his mind by reason of
the recent prosecution of whisky frauds and
the failure in tho Fullerton and qther cases,
his strength thoroughl,v gave way, and when
the excitement pasf,e. otf he will be heard
from with a satisfactory explanation Of his
conduct. •
Mr. ,Vail , scouts the idea that any defal
cation' has taken place, and has the utmost
faith 'in Bailey's probity and good• inten
tions. The victims, of the CollectOr'S
raids and prosecutions declare oven if
there is • 'no ' fraud the departure
been ' occasioned by 'sults against him
which he dare not owl.. Judge Pierrepont is
somewhat reticent as to his views, but is evi
dently of the opinion that fear had, much to do
with 'Bailey's departure.
Mr. Vail is acting Collector until General --
Pleat-onion arrives and takes charge of , the
office, which has been crowded all the morn
ing by interested parties eagerly discu.ssing,all
sorts of theories., probable and improbable,
and quite a number of others, similarly ag
grieved individuals, fully determined to insti
tute t.uits against Bailey.
Ills knowledge of this and other vexations
at repeated total failuirs of suits, it is thought.
are the sole causes of his 'disappearance. The
excitement in official circles occasioned by•
the event is considerable.
John Delano, the Eou of the Comniisaioner
of Internal Iteventr.,and Mr. Parnell, are now
in cbvrge of Bailey's office. Colonel Whiteley
visitcd the office to-day, and is now engaged.
in searching, for Ilailey.,.As yet no defalca
tion has been.found in the accounts.'
