April' 1870* ■' i iHJi «»W ,I i r 5 1 , In the history of Richmond, Virginia, there have been a.good many terrible events.. But .•hone have been more calculated to excite popu lar emotion arid sympathy than the appalling one of yesterday morning. In the number and the social rank of the victims, vye find this ca lamity resembling the frightful one of 1811,when the Richmond theatre was burned, and seventy, persons, prominent in soeiety there,- perished •in the flames. That terrible event caused a -shock all over the country, and the story of it ihas been told and written by eye-witnesses thousands of times, to the people of a later generation. Among the victims then were young and beautiful women, whose fate gave a deeper horror to the narratives of tlio awful Catastrophe. , But the fall'Of the floor of tlrtrState-Gapitol, hy -which, in an instant, several hundred .-.per sons were billed or severely injured, seems to he a-disaster the horror of which can scarcely '"ho lens' «inr» of--tha>bnming of flie theatre. The men who went down in that frightful min were nearly all men of prominent posi tk>n in the State or the city government. Most ■of-them, -doubtless, had families, and the wide spread -distress created by their fate may be faintly imagined. It was not to be wondered at that, as the news of the disaster went over the city, all business was suspended, stores were closed and the - whole-population, as by a simultaneous impulse, became mourners as oyer a common calamity. In this grief the people or Kicbmond and of Virginia-will have the sympathy of the people Of the whole country. The Virginia State Capitol, as every visitor to Richmond since the war will remember, had every appearance of being a well-built, sub stantial edifice. It has frequently been as crowded as it was y esterday, and no doubt was over entertained Of te stability. It is probable that the main floor of the Court Room could have borne the fe w hundred people that were _ n pon it, and more.top, but for the' giving way of the-crowded-galleryand the shock of this additional weight suddenly- plunging in upon it. But a public edifice, which is liable to be crowded at times, ought to have no weak and it; by any accident, a gallery should give way, the floor beneath it might still he secure. The -faults of the damaged structure cannot *be assigned, to the hurried mode of building in recent times; for the Richmond Capitol is an old building. But it is probable there were jobbers •among contractors even in the days when it was built. The timbers of the gallery and floor were .probably bad at hrst, and have been rot ting ever since. The lesson taught by this calamityisanobv iousone,aiidlt ought to be profited by everywhere. All buildings with wooden floors, which are likely to be crowded at times, ought to have the joists, floors, gal leries and wooden pillars and posts subjected to a careful examination, and when signs of de cay appear, new timber should b.e substituted. But iq the erection -of new public buildings, stone, brick and iron should alone be used., the hedicae students again. In the early part of next month the contribu _ tors to the Pennsylvania Hospital will be called upon to-elect new managers to that institution, and to decide whether w.omeri students shall he admitted to the clinics. In anticipation of the action of the contributors certain of the enemies of free science have prepared and are circulating a pamphlet which is designed to in duce the voters to exclude the women, and to make such changes in the management/ of the Hospital as shall forever after deprive female ' students of the privilege of attending the clinics. If the authors of this pamphlet used respectful and decent argument to enforce their views they would deserve only commiseration. ■Bigoted men,who plant themselves squarely in the-pathcfprogressand-pleadpitcously-against overwhelming public opinion,, expressed ' clearly in behalf of a sex that is striving earnestly to accomplish a high destiny for itself and for the' race, present a spectacle that is nothing more than melancholy. But the author of this pamphlet goes farther,and with malignant falsehood and indecency assaults the reputation of the Quaker managers of the Hospital and of the religious sect to which they belongs,and strive to blacken the fair fame of tlic pure women who suffered outrageous in sult from the male students at the Hospital. Men who. could he guilty of this offence not only are unworthy to exercise any functions in any charitable institution, and unfit to be instructors of youth, but they deserve the scorn and contempt of every' honest gentleman. It is not necessary that we should attempt to con trovert at length the untruthful statements made by these persons. Their allegations that a love of gain induced, the ■ managers to sol' tickets to the women students; that they have ’ not a sense of propriety keen enough to perceive the indelicacy of mixed clinics; and that the insulted women were not ladies, are contradicted already by those who know the facts. The fee required from the.students is go small that' it could not under any circumstances tempt the most avari cious of the managers, who are well known to he -estimable gentlemen, with whose views of the (propriety of admitting female students to the Hospital, every sensible man in the com » inunity agrees. The proposition to remove from -Quaker influence an institution that was founded by that sect, and which has been con ducted in a most successful and satisfactory manner through its whole existence by Friends, ■ ' ■ ' is ridiculous, ami will he received by this coin-’ ■annity with contempt. In regard to the claims of the female btudents to the title of ladies,we may say that men who would defend •he conduct of the male students, as these pain yhleteere do, prove by that defence that they iire.rncompetent to determine what qualities to entitle men and women to be cabled gentlemen and ladies. A man must have at least a reasonable amount of gentle-' 1 iwuify instinct himself,before he can determine the existence. or absence of that quality in other people. .. This -pam] h'e* prove.a a fact , that has been suspected : that the infamous assault upon the women students was Inspired and supported by certain medical professors.who are bitterly op posed to 1 the admission of women to the piuc tice of medicine. These persons have been working quietly but earnest'y against- the .wo men ever since the first manifestation; and thjp pamphlet is the second blow Btruck for their cause. They have entered upon a contest that is as hopeless as the opposition displayed in old times against railroads by stage-coach proprie tors. It is the ancient ground of laggard con servatism against liberty and progress. TJIE CROWN OP SPAIN. A new candidate for the throne of Spain is announced . The cable despatches speak of him as Prince Frederick of Prussia, hut as there are several Prussian princes named Frederick, it Is impossible to say who is meant. The King’s brother, Frederick Charles Alexander, is sixty-nine years old, and he is not likely to he the man. He has a son, Prince Frederick Charles Alexander Nicholas, who is forty-two years of age,and who acquired great distinction, at the battle of Sadowa. There ape several other Prince Fredericks, including the crown prince /andhis oldest son, neither of whom is likely to ■be a candidate for Spanish honors, and Prince Frederick Charles seems likely to be the one alluded to in the despatches. : Naturally the Emperor Napoleon, who has a grudge against Prussia, or a dread of her, ob jects to having a Prussian made King of Spain. He has Prussia threatening France on the Kbine frontier, and fie does not want to have her also beyond the Pyrenees. Doubtless he suspects that Bismarck, whoso cunningly con trived to have a Prussian Prince, Charles, of Hohenzollem-Sigmaringen, placed on the va cant throne of Boumania in ISOO, is anxious to put another Prussian on the vacant throne of Spainiih. 1870. The scheme is worthy of that shrewd statesman, who has done so much, within a few years, to. extend and increase the power and "influence" of Prussia .throughout Europe. It certainly would be at least em barrassing to France to have a Prussian King of Spain. But eyen without the opposition of Napo-- leon, it docs not seem at all likely that either the Cories or the people of. Spain would* con sent to have a German prince, and one of a Protestant family, for their reigning monarch. Although freedom in religion is allowed since the revelution, still the people are nearly, all Catholics, and many of them very bigoted ones. The idea of a German Protestant as -their sovereign-woukLhejnostJinpalateable_ to them. We incline to think the Government of Spain will have to look., elsewhere for the monarch they so longingly desire.. But there is evident impatience at the delay in finding a suitable man, and: the Republicans of Spain are taking fresh courage. Even Serrano and Prim ate said to be talking about a Republic. The experiment would be risky, but it could not make things worse than they are under the long-protracted anomalous state of things under the Provisional Government. BROAD STBEfct. A portion of Broad-street,, mnning. north. from Market street, is being: repaved with the old cobble-stone nuisance. This is certainly a great waste of money, and a perpetuation of one of the most serious annoyances to which the public are subjected. Why cannot the question of paving Broad street with a substan tial wooden pavement be settled by Councils at once ? The thousands who drive and ride over that fine avenue are entitled to an early relief from the cobble-stone abomination, alike so destructive to nerves, comfort, vehicles and horses. Councils meet again to-day. Will not out “Friends in Council” hurry up the slow moving machinery by which the public benefit of a good pavftnent on Broad street is to be secured ? > m u src&x - Carl Gahrtner’s Soiree. Oh Saturday next, at Dutton’s piano ware rooms, NorilHO Chestnntstreet, Carl Grortner will give a classical soiree, with an extremely interesting programme. , Besides Spohr’s ex - quisite composition for the nine different wind and stringed instruments, an opportunity is extended to the lovers of Mendelssohn to en joy what is seldom heard in this country—his fnniocß symphonic work for (iight' Htnnged in strnmente.

Important official information has been re ceived here from Cnba., For some time it has been known to the authorities that the volun teers in Cnba were in reality the party in power,and. have forced the Spanish authori ties to comply with nearly all their he-" mauds. Intelligence how comes from Havana that a counter revolution is sure to break out within a brief period of time, the volunteers heing'determinedto wrest the island away from Spain, and make it an independent province. It has been thought hero, in diplomatic circles, for three months, that a counter-revolution was sure" to take place, and the news received to-day is but a: confirmation of such a belief. . Tlie Fenian Bald on Canada. Advices received here from United States Marshal's along the Canadian frontier indicate that the Fenians are becoming alarmed at the prospect of an interference By the military, and seem disposed to abandon their proposed raid into Canada. The F, ian leaders resort to ail manner of schemes to mislead the United States authorities, using decoy letters, with false information, to distract their attention from the real movements, made and in pro gress. 'f The Fenians have large quantities of arms stored along the border, near Buffalo and Ufagara, hut these are closely watched, ami any attempts to violate the laws by an im proper use of them will end in the speedy arrest oftho guilty parties engaged. The Government is informed by the Cana dian authorities that the excitement alon» the border is abating, and that the people have all confidence in the, military being able to take care of all the Fenians who set foot on Canadian soil. It is estimated at the State Department that the cost of enforcing the neu trality laws during .the past year was about fifteen thousand dollars,the most of which was used in . preventing the fitting out of Cuban filibustering expeditions; .._ - Transportation of British Trdopb. • It is ascertained that there Is no foundation for the rumor that Minister Thornton lias hinted.,to Secretary.
