EVENING BULLETIN.
Tuesday. March 22, IS7O.
BROAD STREET.
The action of Councils, last week, in refusing
to order gates to be placed on Broad street, at
Jim crossing of the Germantown and Norris
town Railroad, bas excited a good deal of sur
prise among the large body of citizens who are
in the habit of driving and riding on Broad
street.: We do not understand whose interest
was to be subserved by this action. Not the
railroad company's certainly; for the subse
quent action of Select Council showed that
there was no disposition to extend any,unusual
favor in that direction,. The resolution to
place additional flagmen on Broad street' and
at all the other crossings between that spot and
Green street was favorably received , and re
ferred to the proper committee. Should this
resoltition be adopted, it will impose a much
larger, expense•upon the Company than would
be involved in erecting and tending a gate on
Broad street. Not the citizens, certainly; for
it is only for the preservation
of the lives of citizens that this
sate is needed. That Councils consider
. _
such gates needful and practicable within the
city limits is showed by their establishing one,
not Very far frpin the Broad street crossing. re
ferred to, on the Lamb Tavern road, at the
crossing of the Connecting Railroad, and also
on the Pennsylvania Railroad, west of the
Wife Bridge. That a bridge is better than 't
gate, no one can doubt. But the : building of a
bridge at the point in question would not only
be a matter of very considerable expense, but
would occupy much time in construction, and
Impose much temporary inconvenience upon
the *bole Germantown travel. As a present
safe expedient, a gate should certainly be
erected on Broad street ; and there certainly is
no sane man who ever drives on that street
who will not prefer to be stopped by a gate to
the risk of dashing across the tracks of the rail
road in front of an approaching train.
The suggestion that the trains shall be
slowed down to the rate of eight miles per
boor will be strongly objected to by thousands
of citizens who daily ride over the German
lawn and Norristown road. The necessity
for numerous way-stations already makes the
travel very slow, more time being consumed in
stopping and starting, than in running the train,
and it would be anything but satisfactory to
the residents of Germantown, Norristown and
Manayunk, to have their trips lengthened for
no better reason than to avoid the erection of
a gate at Broad street. Let us have the gate;
and if a bridge is afterwards deemed advisable
and practicable, we can have the bridge and
dispense with the gate. But there is too much
at stake to be trusted wholly to the vigilance
of a flagman, who, at the very best, is liable to
drowsiness and carelessness.
NOW THEN. GENTLEMEN 1
Gentlemen of the Board of Health, has not
the time arrived to take some little notice of
the condition of the streets and alleys of Phila
delphia? With the exceptiOn of a week or so,
there has really been no time, during the win
ter, when you might not have had your con
tractors at work; but you have taken the usual
winter holiday, on the theory that, if there
have been no snow and ice to 'hinder your
work, there ought to have been, in the regular
course of events. But even the nominal win
ter is fairly, gone now, and Philadelphia. lies
buried beneath a horrible pall of revolting filth,
disgusting to the senses,, au outrage upon
modern civilization, the cause of bitter. taunts
and revilings from neighboring cities, a hin
drance to the prosperity of Philadelphia, an in
vitation and provocation to disease and pesti
tenet, a very great discredit to you, individ
ually, Gentlemen of the Board of Health.
What are.you going to do about it? There
would seem to be but three rational Courses to
be pursued. You might go the Legislature
and tell it that the Board of Health Is unsuited
to the work of cleaning the streets, and ask to
have your authority repealed. Then you might
go the Courts, individually, and ask to .. „„be re
lieved of your appointmentave more
active and energetic men put in your places.
And then, lastly, you might make one more
desperate effort, to do your duty. We did our
very best to encourage and uphold you when you
assumed this work. We believed that nothing
could possibly be so bad as the old
system. We asked for you the pa
tience of the public. We expressed high
hopes that you would clean our streets. You
have accomplished as nearly nothing as was
possible, under the circumstances. Everybody
knows the utterly vile condition of Philadel
phia at this day. The principal streets are
filthy enough ; but the by-streets, the back
alleys, the courts and lanes are indescribably
worse. No contractor is making the slightest
chew of doing his work, and the Board of
Health, so far as any outward sign goes, seems
quite Content to sit still. Gentlemen of the.
Board of Health, do not find fault With the
public Ness, if it holds you to account for th
neglect of duty.
NON. JOISEPD. P. BRADLEY.
Ile Joseph P. Inaotey, who was con
firmed, yesterday, Associate Justice of th‘
Supreme Court of the - United States, has r
retord uhleh is peculiarly honorable. Like
Many other Americans Kho have gained, the
lighest ofbces in the gift of the people, and
Lted them with dignity and ability, Judgv
Iradley began life in the lowest rank, ant won
Lis way W position and fame and fortune. by

the sheer force of superior natural ability, an
energetic character and untiring industry.
Ile vi as the eldest son of a large family, and
• during his earlier 'years be wasoccupied - alinost
entirely with the labor of attending to his
father's farm, and so he bad no
leisure and • _but little opportunity
to acquire an education. • But he taught
himself the rudiments, and at the age of eeven
teen be opened a small school, teaching and
studying at the same time. Gradually be mas
tered the various branches of common school
education; then by dint of hard reading and
severe application, and with the assistance of
the clergyman of his parish, be fitted himself
for college. in 1833, young Bradley in
ter,A Rutger's College, 'at liew Brunswick,
New Jersey, and three years later, in 1836, lie
graduated with very high honors. Immedi
ately afterwards he began to study law, and in
1889 he was admitted to the bar. In this pro
fession, for . mhichhe displayed peculiar fitness,
he soon rose to eminence, and for the past
thirty years he has held foremost rank among
the lawyers of his native State.
T. the duties of his new position Judge
Bradley brings a naturally_ powerful intellect,
vi ell stored with legal learning, disciplined by
long experience with the practice of the high
est courts in New Jersey, and equal in many
respects to the brightest that have made the
Supreme Court of the United States illustrious.
his selection:for the position does , credit to the
sound judgment and good sense of President
Grant, and we believe Judge Bradley wit'
prove by his record in the future that his
nomination was eminently wise and discreet.
He is a member of the Republican party, and
throughout the war be was a devoted advocate
of the policy of that :organization: But he
never was a violent and intemperate partizan,
and the people of the country may be assured
that. his decisions in the Supreme„ Court
will not
.be biassed by his political prolivi
ties.
It is reported that the Sewage bill now be
fore the Legislature is to be so modified that
the Board of health will • lave authority to
annul the contracts of the company if it fails to
do its duty. If this amendment is made, one
u; ~.u-most—cle,jc;:t-kqatVerftreti •
will be removed, and we !;hall at least not be
left entirely helpless in the hands of an irre
sponsible corporation, without power to 'com
pel performance of labor for which we pay our
money. But this improvement of the scheme
will not make it by any means entirely accept
able to the community. The remaining pro
visions of the bill compel citizens'to employ
the company's agents to remove garbage, ashes
and refuse matter of all kinds from private
dwellings, and permit the company
to charge its own price for such
labor, part of. which is now' performed
by individuals for nothing. If the company.
chooses' to neglect certain dwellings, the refuse
may accumulate until the inhabitants are
driven into the , street, and yet the sufferers
will have no remedy but an appeal to the Board
of 'Health. They cannot have a pound of the
matter removed without the permission and
assistance of the company. It will be an out
rage to tie the bands of any householder in
this manner, and to place the health and con
venience of his family at the mercy of a corpo
ration. A brief experience of the operation of
such an arrangement will suffice to , disgust
everybody in the community. The Sewage.
bill will give satisfaction only when this arut
one or two other of the objectionable features
are removed. If it is passed in its present
shape, it will ruin every man who Votes for`it:
Such as it is,—grammar and all,—we are
glad to see, in this morning's Inquirer, even
this partial and evasive acknowledgment of the
outrage perpetrated on the E\ ENING Burszrui
by the New York Tribune, and the Philadel
phia papers that gave such needless notoriety
to its lie :
INVEEACITY.—The EVENING BULLETIN de
nies that this word, which the New York
Tribune used in reference to them, is deserved.
It asks a denial of the Tribune.
There is a class of persons who, having no
original talent of their own, achieve notoriety,.
and sometimes success, by adopting the clever
ideas of other people. If somebody writes a
hook or a drama or a song which happens to,
hit the popular fancy, it may be regarded ag
absolutely certain that a hundred or two
other men will immediately sit down and per
petrate a book,a drama or a song,in which the
popular elements of the copy are introduced
with variations. When Artemus Ward be
came famous, every fellow who considered
himself a humorist immediately began to as:
moult the newspapers with villainous or
thography. When certain song-writers, in a
wholly unaccountable manner, started all the
jangling pianos in the country with " Dear
Father Come Home," 44 Mother IS the Battle
Otter?" and " Willie We Have Missed Yon,"
the imitative idiots were miserable until they
had written answers, in which " loather" de
clared that he had " Come Home," and in
tended to stay there; in which
" Mother" vouchsafed the information that
the sanguinarY conflict had terminated,
and in which " expressed a good
deal of satisfaction at having been missed.
Wuen Tom Taylor wrote Our American Cousin
he created an amusing personage entitled
" Lord Dundreary." This nobleman in the
course of the play alluded to his " brother
Sam." No sooner had "Dundreary" become
popular than Mr. De Walden seized this fra
t ernal suggestion, and, having modeled " Sam"
closely after the pattern of " Dundreary," pro
ceeded to write a comedy to fit him, on the
principle pursued by the Irishman who tried
to make a cannon by first- procuring a hole
and then casting the iron around it. As might
have been expected Mr. De WaldOn's play
having been constructed to meet the require
ments; of this appropriated character u is a very
ppor affair. The plot is commonplace, ex
tremely uninteresting, and entirely obvious
from the first. The situations are nearly all

feLtly familiar material, and he dialogue does
not contain a witty sentence.
r• ham" is not much better than his drama.
In the attempt to present a modified " Dun.

eritinirg idiot, whose ridiculous conduct and
uonsensival speeches are wholly irreconcilable

It is undeniable, however,tbat there is some

,by any moans accept this
feet as proof of the exigence of some hidden
excellence in the drama; for we know. very
well, from large experience,' that multitudes

performances which simply disgust, others by
their stupidity and abgurdity.' The popularity
of the bare and brazen blondes, for instance,
is wholly unaccountable, unless their very
bareness is attractive, for their entertainments
Are beneath contempt. About half the people
of this world do not know of what genuine
humor consists, and they will laugh as readily
at the stale wit of the circus clown as at the
roaring fun of Clarke's "Major De Boots ;"
and very often they will laugh exactly in the
wrong place. We have too good an opinion of
the intelligence of Mr. Chanfran, who is
an excellent actor and a man of
wit a n d sense, '
to imagine that he does not re
gard " Sam" and his play' as unadulterated
bosh. But Mr., Chanfrau possibly conceives
that the first duty of man its to provide him
self with bread and butter and other suste
nance; and as the people who would not con
tribute to that object...if he appeared in legiti
mate drama, crowd to see him in Sant, he,
properly enough permit's the legitimate drama
to go 'to the " dernnition bow-wows," and
_plays the game that wins the dollars. This is
all right enough for Mr. Chaufrau, and if he
is satisfied and his audiences are contented,
nobody else need offer any objection. We
only express a candid opinion because it hap
pens to be our duty. There is nothing immoral
or indecent in the performance. It is only a
singularly unsuccessful attempt at fun. Those
of our readers who are curious to witness the
experiment, or 'who like their comedy drawn
mild; and without intensity, ought to visit the
theatre and devote an evening to Sten.
French Comedy
The French Company at the Amateurs'
Drawing-Room last night recurred to the writ
ings of Ernest Legouve, with whose Butaide
de Dunus they originally opened the season.
The" work they chose for last evening's per
formance, Par Drod de Comp Re, is a three-act
awith_aJnible-amtg.coMcils mare), and_
Moreau showed himself capable ,of giving
Force to its most eloquent sentiments iu the
,--nunciation. Yet his part, although full ot vi
vacity and Urns of change, is a dramaticall
Hat one. The play-writer dares not forget,
that in his craft, it is false art to treat the vi
cissitudes of life by allusion or recital ; they
must be acted out tinder the eye of the specta
tor, or they lack reality. Mme. Moreau had a
far Letter role ) and indeed was more fascinating
in the simple and motherly ferthiCrethan in any
of the parlor parta she has played. RoUsseau,
always reliable, made a fine quick-tempered
Marquis of the old school. Mme. Gueretti
will excuse us if ;we remark that by stwlying
her parts before instead of during the per
formance, she will avoid, on the stage, an em
barrassment almost equally painful to herself
and the auditors. To-night Juignet will de
claim the dramatic poem La Greve des
Forgerovs, and L'llornme du Suet, by Roche
fort, giving the French idea of burnt-cork
minstrelsy and the break-down, will be
brought out again. An operetta and a violin
cello performance will add to the variety.
The benefit of the company, for which they
will present entire the original play, by Melt-,
bac and Halivy, of Frou-frou, will take place,
as we learn on Saturday.
Lotto at the Arch.
Lotta appeared at the Arch Street Theatre
last night in a now drama entitled Jleart'n,
Ease; or, What's Money without It? The plot
of the play is shallow and: old, and the bu.siness,
is made up of jig-dancing, banjo-playing,
and comic singing, crammed into almost in
coherent episodes, which possess no intrinsic
interest whatever. There is not a particle of
.original humor, or indeed of any humor of a
good kind, in the entire play ; nor is there a
single character that is worthy of the con
sideration of a capable actor. , The drama h
beneath contempt, and the performance is
below the-level of three (poorest negro minstrel
entertainment. It is.orsubject for regret that,
aly oun g actress, possessing such fine natural
ability as Miss Lotta has, should prefer rather
to please the groundlings with coarseness and
vulgarity, than to win reputation and the
applause and respect of intelligent persons by
more creditable exercise of her powers.

The hen Dominge Treat 3 , ..e11ueh Oppoel
WASHINGTON, March 22.—The discussion of
the San Domingo treaty is becoming exciting
as the time for final action on it approaches.
The tendency of opinion is decidedly unfavor
able to Ste ratification. The circumstances at
tending the first inception of theprojectwhen
Schumadber, Audenard and O'Sullivan,repre
seating a party of Baltimore speculators, had
it In charge, are freely canvassed. A. foreigner
of high rank, connected with one of the prin
cipal legations here, yesterday assured your
correspondent that he knew that the proposi
tions which were accepted by the United
States had been made by Baez to France and
England, and successively rejected by them.
A member of the Foreign Relations Com
mittee, who will vote for the treaty, told
your correspondent that the Committee were
satisfied that no one could tell what
it would cost in the end. Other Senators are
free to say that the allegations that there its
jobbery concealed in the operation are so
plausible and numerous as to constitute ajnst
ground for distrust, It is not altogether im
probable that the treaty may be postponed, to
.allow an investigation to be conducted by a
Congressional Commission, or uninterested
persons, in whom Congress stilt confidence.
Secretary Fish is understood to oppose the
treaty, thqugh rather passively than actively.
It is currently reported that General Babcock
told the Senators when he was at the Capitol
the other day, working for the purchase, that
Secretary Fish's hostility was owing to the
fart that the treaty was not of his own
making.
The St. Thosuaa Treaty.
The Senate Committee on Foreign Relations
this morning unanimously agreed to report the
St. Thomas treaty and recommend its rejeotion.
The Brooklyn. Wavy-Yard.
The llouse Committee on Naval Affairs, to
day, agreed to report in favor of abolishing
the Brooklyn Navy-Yard, and transferring its
stores and material to existing yards.

(epeeist Despatch to the Phila. Evenlac Barletta.]
BARRIORIMG, March 22.
SENATE.—The following bills were consid
ered:
The House bill . compelling the removal of
sidewalk markets was opposed by Messrs.
Linderman and Nagle,and favored by Messrs:
lierissey, Brooke, and Connell and passed to a
third reading and laid over.
Messrs. Connell, Watt and Hen.szey voted
for the bill, and Nagle against it.
The House bill authorizing the people of
Philadelphia to vote in October to tix the site
of dip public buildings was postponed for the
reseht, by a vice ore vote, on motion of Mr.
Nagle.
Ihe House bill preventing the erection of
any public buildings on Independence Square
was oppmed by Mr. Nagle, who said that the
State bad no jurisdiction over the ground,
-but that the game had been sold to the city for
seventy thousand dollars in 18115. It had even
'authorized a commission to cut the square
into lots, or to run through streets
through it.
Mr. Henszey saidthat the commission re
ferred to bad never acted, and that the city
merely held the ground in trust, subject to an
express stipulation in the act of 1816 that no
public bundling should ever be erected thereon.
Councils, in 1851, had passed au ordinance
dedicating the square to the erection of a
monument to the heroes of 1776. This ordi- '
nance had been ratified by act of Assembly,
and the spot had been accepted by the con
vention of delegates from the thirteen States,
for the monumental purpose.
11 r. Nagle cited the act of 1847 to show that
a Court-House bad been erected by authority
of the Legislature upon the Square, thereby
implying the abrogation of the original con
tract. The new buildings to be constructed
would not affect Independence- Hall in any
way.
r. Lowry urged that the , Square be kept
sacred for the whole people.
The bill was finally postponed for the
I present, on motion of Sir. Connell.
Housz.—The following bills were objected
to and postponed for one week :
The house bill authorizing retail dealers in
refined petroleum to purchase the same by
. barrel was objected to by Mr. Davis.
The joint resolution remitting certain penal
ties imposed upon the city of Philadelphia on
delay in payment of taxes due the 'State, was
objected to by Mr. Brown.
Senate bill requiring persons whe practice
medicine, surgery and midwifery in Philadel
phia to be licensed. Objected to by Mr El
liott.
The House supplement to the act incorpor
siting the Browns burg Delaware Bridge Com
pany was objected to by Mr. McKinstry.
The House bill allowing members of Council
also to bold offices under the State govern
ment was objected .to by Mr. Dailey.
The Border Raid bill, which appropriates
the entire revenue now received by the Com
monwealth from the counties of Adams, Cum
berland, Franklin, Bedford, Fulton, Perry
and York, to the payment of the,/ claims for
border damages, amounting to two millions of
dollars. was objected to by Mr. Reinoehl.
The House bill making it unlawful, after
January Ist, 1871, to erect any new steam
boiler within two hundred feet of anypublic
school building,was objected to by Mr. Elliott.
The House bill requiring engineers of steam
boilers to undergo an examination, and to be
licensed; was opposed by Messrs. Davis and
Miller and favored by Mr. Adairo, and de
feated.
