The colored people in Philadelphia are this day celebrating the passage of the Fifteenth Amendment to the Constitution, which wipes, ont the last traces of the oppression and injus tice under which they have so long suffered. They have a glorious day for their jubilee, and they are enjoying it with the'utmost zest. Vast numbers of people of their race have come to the city from the surrounding country, and have been visible, with their shining faces and their best clothes on, in all our principal streets. The city is gay with flags, and the whites, with no exceptions but the most hide-bound Demo . eratic politicians, are sympathizing with them to their demonstrations of joy. Our reporters give as full accounts of the do tegs of the day as possible; the procession and tee mass-meeting occurring in the latter half of It. As far as .can be judged, everything has Seen arranged in the beat, manner, and there is no apprehension of any disorder. The colored .people are too full of happiness to think of making a disturbance, and there is no danger of their being molested by others. They are conducting themselves in a way that shows they appreciate the endowment of citizenship they have received, and that they are anxious t* follow the good advice given them by Pre sident Grant in his message to Congress ac •ompanying the Proclamation of the Amend ment. They have the best wishes of all decent white people that they may, one and all, prove worthy to be American citizens, equal before the law with the whites. JUH«ASnA«EIS GREECE. Headers of Edmond About’s strange book, Ze Boidcs ifonlagncs,\v<'dl recall bis vivid pic tures of wild scenery among the mountains of Greece. It was amid those scenes that events -Jiave just-oecurred which are exciting all Eu rope, and are especially agitating the public mind in Great Britain. The story of these events is not very clearly told in the cable de spatches, those of the New York Associated Fressbcing particularly unsatisfactory.—From the better accounts furnished by the American Press Association and printed in this paper, we are able, however, - to-form- a-tolerably—clear idea of what has occurred. Amenu.- |n fhp. early part of the month a party of about tbis uttv.. tourists, mostlyanglisbjnen, left Athens, to ex plore among the wild regions of the hack coun try, and especially to visit the famous field of Marathon. Among them was Baron Mun "iaster, an Irislr~nobleingn—Mrr-E—Herbertr Third Secretary of the British Legation, and a wiemher of the Italian Legation, whose name is telegraphed Bayet, or Bay el. When about eighteen miles northeast of Athens, the party were attacked by a band of brigands under a elnef named Konit. As usual in such cases, they were promised their freedom in case one ot their party, who was released on parole, •should bring back a sum of money by way of ransom, the. amount being fixed at two thousand pounds sterling. Lord 11 uncaster was to go for the ransom, but on hiß repotting the capture at Athens a party of soldiers was sent in pursuit - cf the brigands. A severe fight occurred be tween them near Marathon, in which a num ber are said to have been slain on both sides. The bandits fled, but the captives were not re covered. The pursuit was resumed, and after -terrible suffering from hunger, thirst and fa tigue, Mr. Herbert and the Italian, geutlema were murdered by the bandits, because they impeded their ilight. On the following day a Mr. Verner and a Mr. or Mrs. Lloyds were murdered for the same reason. At the last ac - counts the pursuit was still going on, but with no expectation that any of the captives would - be found aline. ■ —. That such events should occur within a few miles of the capital of a European kingdom aeems strahge. And yet similar scenes have occurred, within a few weeks, near Naples and in Sicily, and their recurrence has only been prevented by the most active efforts of the Italian soldiery. The atrocities of the Greek brigandage far exceed those of the.Neapolitau, and it is not surprising that they hate caused the utmost horror and indignation in England, Italy and throughout Europe. The King of Greece naturally feels hound to punish the scoundrels that infest his kingdom, and that have brought such sorrow among the foreign so - jouiners ■at Athens. But it really seems as if’he can do nothing. His resources are small, his troops few in number, and the bri • gauds know every hiding place and fastness among the mountains. For many years they bate preyed upon the tourists, though they bavc not been in the habit of murdering their ■aptives, as they have done in this instance. They can only be exterminated with the aid ; 0 f foreign troops, and it is not unlikely that England and Italy will send a sufficient force |o “ clean out” the whole mountaih region and take revenge for the brutal murders of their ! subjects. But to secure permanent immunity from similar out rages,Greece ouglit to \ie put under the protec torate of a stronger pbwer, which can aflord to maintain a large force in the country. Russia would undoubtedly be willing to undertake tfcis protectorate, -but, the other powere, and especially Turkey, would object. But some thing of the kind ought to be done, so that the eountry .may not ■be again disgraced by such outrages as these of Konit and bis band. THE OBJECT OF THE QTJAKBEI.. . .The Fenian.. 11 .BigttoeraJLar® again, .quarrel-.. - jog with each other in a very unfiatcrnal man ner. That valiant but mild and inexperienced warrior, General <j|’Neil, hat dissolved partner: drip with some others of the Fenian leaders, and has expressed very unfavorable opinions of tteir honesty and capability,„ t These suffering patriots in turn have cut loose from the heroic . O’Neil, and have established “ headquarters ” -in this city, from whence they issue a docu ment denouncing O’Neil as a tra&or and an ’ imbecile. ‘ ThcjMtensible object qf this division Jb to gain an eflicient administration of, Fenian" afiairs, ami to organize war* in an effective manner against Great Britain, Canada, Winni peg and any other available British ‘ terri tory. General O’Neil profosseg to believe that he alone can marshal the Fenian hoits to victory J the ,l Executive Council” of disaffected leaders. declares that it can best conduct a gory and tri umphant war. Both call for money ah men, to aid them in the work; and just here we are permitted to perceive the real cause .of the quarrel. The Council djvulgesihe fact that the devoted O’Neil has managed, to retire about eight thousand dollars of Fenian money in a mysterious manner, for which hp: has -nothing whatever to show, unless' it is. his private bank book. The Council therefore atks the “ Brothei-s” to pour their contributions into its exchequer in the future. So, after all the pathetic rhetoric, the tears shed over misery, the promises of heroic achievement; the alarming anxiety to perish upon the battle field, this difficulty resolves itself into a quarrel for dollars. Other Fenian squabbles have been of the same character, and have concluded wlth_ a disappearance of all the fundsin the pocketsof ’ tlievmen who have talked loudest and made the greatest display of earnestness in the cause of Irish liberty. We are afraid that therq are Irish men and women in this country who have not learned the lesson taught by -these swindles in the past; and there is good reason to believe that many honest cooks, chamber maids, hod-carriers, barrow-trundlers and mor tar-mixers will he induced to respond to these appeals again, and give their - hardly-earned wages and savings to the Council and the "a Geherar.’ F ”lf they choose to rob themselves in such a manner, the privilege cannot; be de nied them t thiabemg country ; but we do not perceive why the men who receive these contributions should not be .checked in their schemes. If there is a law to defend poor-ajid ignorant persons from lottery policy dealers,-and gamblers,and swindlers, and if it. is a crime to obtain money under false pre tences, •we do not know why-this. Fenian contribution business should be permitted to proceed without interference. A SIAOHT lISCOKSIBTEHCT- In an editorial upon the virtues of the aver age American social life, tbe New York Tribune uses the following language: “It is pur honest helief that nowhere in the world is God as sincerely worshipped, is the mamage tie as universally respected, and are women as pure in thought and deed, as the ordinary family life of America.” Every man who knows any thing about the maUerj from/ experieiice and observation, will heartily acknowledge the truthfulness of this statement, and will rejoice at the existence of such a lofty moral tone in American 'society. The only strange thing about this utterance is, that it should come from the Tribune, the editor of which stood by the bedside of Richardson while a mock mar riage was performed as the second act of a | tragedy which began with seduction and a i-sham-divorce.— We-can-hajdly_realize_hoi£_the_ “honest belief” expressed in the sentence quoted can give satisfaction to men who ap- proved. Kiohardson’s 'intrigues with Mrs. McFarland, and sanctioned the crime by which Mr. McFarland’s family ties were .rudely broken. It is difficult to reconcile such senti ments with that former editorial, which de fended the hideous theories of Mrs. Calhoun, and said of those letters by which she poisoned Mrs. McFarland’s mind with free-love doctrines and entreated her to abandon her husband-ftnd fling herself into the arms of her paramour, that “ there is noth line in them that the.writer should wish to blot,” and that “ whatever evil may be made out of ..those letters will have its origin in the heart of the. commentator.” The same sense or right and honor, and the same purity which causes the marriage tie to be re spected in this country,provoked universal con demnation of the Tribune’! 1 defence of Richard son and Mrs.jCalhoun, and induced the whole nation to regard the death-bed marriage with horror and disgust. -If the Tribune finds satis faction in. contemplating the existence of such a wholesome state of public morals, it ought not to compfain as bitterly as it does when good and liWst and pure people denounce, its cold-blooded immorality and its defence o f libertinism. • .... CUIEBBEH OF THE NATION. When brave Captain Williams went down witli the Oneida, sunk in the. Indian seas by. Captain Eyre, he left bj-lmui him three motherless children, who now -are penniless, and defenceless. Their only inheritance is the good name of their heroic father; their fate is feutire dependence upon the charity of others. The youngest of is five years of age ; the eldest is twelve. In consequence of their fathers death the three are separated, and are now living in different- States. In the city of Boston a movement, has been begun by cer tain benevolent and patriotic gentlemen to raise a sum sufficient for their support and edu cation, so that the little remnant of this broken family may be brought together again and as-,, sured of a comfortable Irving. The custody and control of the fund has been given to one. of the most eminent and humane citizens of Bos- ton, R. B. Forbes, Esq.,whose life-long services in behalf of benevolent societies in this country ' afford ample guarantee that the money will be judiciously applied; Mr. Forbes bas requested Edward Sbippen, Esq., of No. 532 Walnut, street, to receive even the smallest sums that may be contributed in; this .city; and he invokes the assistance of every man and woman, who has any sympathy with the oVject. The claim of these little or phans upon the patriotic and the good is so - strong that it does not need earnest advocacy. Captain Williams died like a brave man and a gentleman, at his post of duty, displaying in the supreme hour of peril such heroic courage and such self-sacrificing .devotion as entitle him to enduring fame and to the warm admiration of his countrymen. We can honor his memory best, and provembsteflectively the sincerity of our appreciation ql. his high qualities, by sup plying to his helpless children some measure of. the care which he would have bestoWed upbiT them, by fitting them for that battle with the - world jvhich they will have to fight alone, ahii by teaching them by our tender solicitude that brave men who die in the service of their coun try are not forgotten. We trust that the con tribution of Philadelphia to this 'fund will be copnnensurate with her reputation fprpatrlot " .isijijaud behevo lencc. PHILADELPHIA EVENING BULLETIN, TUESDAY, APRIL 26, 1870. Two regiments of United States troops, heretofore on, fluty in'Virginia and Kentucky, have been ordered to' Dakotah, and hereafter there will he no ' federal soldiers in either of those States, if we except the small garrisonsat Fot tree's Monroe, Vn., and Newport Barracks, Ky. Nothing can better illustrate the Ameri can inode of doing without a" large standing army than facts like this. Five years after, a great war, in which most of the people of these two States were hostile to the Union, they are soquigt as to need no troops. And yet people used to talk of the South beiug made a second Poland, where an overpowering military force would be constantly required. Couple with this fact about Virginia and Kentucky the other fact that the number of enlisted men in the United States army is to bo reduced, to 25,000 men, and we must present a remarkable picture to the people of those countries of Europe, that, even in time of profound peace, .have to keep 'in service armies'of from one hundred thousand to,half a million of men. Important Decision# FINE CLOTHING vs. LOW PRICES. A test base to prove that it is impossible to purchase a superior article of Ready-Made Clothing at the low prices commonly paid for inferior garments. The most important evidence submitted was that of the regular customers of Oak Hall, who testified that they habitually bought the very best of Clothing at extremely low rates, and that it invariably gave satisfaction.

Washington, April 20—The most earnest advocates of the tariff bill now concede that the hill will fall in the House this session. The Pennsylvania members seem quite indig nantthat the Now England delegation have not given more active.support to the measure, and charge them with having been false to their promises to sustain Pennsylvania in ■ terests.

Sympathy for Winnipeg In hewer ~ . ] 7" ' Canada. '. " tiieljamHton Evening Times.] In the Province of Quebec there is a feeling of strong sympathy-with-Riel and his-French half-breeds—a desire to shield him and them from the consequences of their crimes, aiid great reluctance is manifested by a consider able portion of the French inhabitants of Lower Canada to use efficient measures for the suppression of the insurrection, and for the establishment.of Canadian authority over the Northwest Territory by a resort to mitt-' tary force. Nor is it difficult to assign the causes for this divergence of feeling and opinion in the two Provinces of the Do minion, which feel a spceial interest in the a flairs of . the Northwest. The rebels, however, appear to he the same race and religion with the majority of the people of Quebec, hence the sympathy of the latter with the insurgents. Besides the settlement of the N orth west hv emigrants front Ontario must, in time, give to the western portion-of-the Dominion a preponderance in uolitical power over the Province of Quebec. It is, perhaps, natural, under all these cir cumstances, that tlio French race of Lower Capada should view with feelings of jealousy the great increase of wealth, power and poli tical influence which the opening up and set tlement of the West must -ultimately Bring to the Province of Ontario. On the other hand.. a large portion of the loyal settlers in the Red river valley are aliin in race aud -religion -to “tlie great-'majority ,! of —the’ people of Ontario; and, as the settlement of the northwest'and the establish ment of Canadian jurisdiction over so vast an area and fertile and valuable territory, must he oi immense advantage to this Province, it is but natural that here people should sympa thize profoundly with the loyal people of Red river, and be willing to make great sacrifices, if necessary, to stamp out the rebellion, aud to establish upon a firm basis the jurisdiction of the Dominion throughout the North west Terri tory. two most important and. most Sopulous Provinces of the Confederation of Iritisli North Amerita are thus brought Into a state, if pot of hostility to each other, yet in. one of strong opposition, lor want of unanimity of feeling and unity of interest INSURANCE COMPANY NORTH AMERICA.

[Senate— Continued from the fourth Edition.J The Committee on Retrenchment submitted a bill in relation to special agents df thb Treas ury, fixing their salaries and :limiting their number. He explained that in 1869> when there were seventy-nine of the?®- agents, neither their number nor salary were limited or authorized bylaw',some of them receiving as much as five thousand dollars per year and mileage, notwithstanding they hold free passes over most of the railroads. One distinguished Western Senator, it is said, has procured the appointment of seventeen of his friends in this special service. Under former usage tlio aggregate compensation of these agents amounted to about six hundred dollars per day. Under the present bill there will be fifty-three agents, at an aggregate compensa tion of three hundred and forty-two dollars per day; and their salaries will range from five to eight dollars per day, according to the ser •vicoperformeci.,:;- - - Mr. Ferris said that heretofore the special agents had been appointed without authority of law.. These officers are indispensable, and’ therefore he had drawn up the present bill in its original shape authorizing these appoint ments, but fixing their salaries and limiting, their number.
