IDE CIVIL SERVICE.
The Civil Service bill of Mr. Jenekes, with
perhaps`sOine'modifications made in commit
tee, will probably be reported to the House of
Representatives to-morrow: Although little
ha's been said about this bill of late, by the
press or in Congress, the feeling in favor of it
is 'as strong as ever, and if it should be passee;
people will pardon dome of the waste
of time which a factious opposition has
made over the Tariff bill. We --hope
sincerely that . Mr. Jenckes's bill
will receive early and favorable, actitinin each
House. If it is carried, it will do more for
the permanent hOnor and renown of the Forty
first Congress and the Grant administration
than any measure that has been adopted or is
likely to be. The country wants reform
— the - eltil - ServiCceiand the bill of hip 7eneke~
will secure this.. if i t has defects, these will
soon be discovered and rectified.
A CHANCE FOR REFORMATION.
In some of the Wards : of this city
to-night Republican primary meeting
*ill be held for the .purpose of - organ
ization. There is no doubt that the
*retched political hacks to whose efforts we
owe the character of the last Legislature and
its immediate predecessors, will be on hand
sebeineS fon Obtaining control of the cort-: -
ventions, so that they may send their corrupt
friends to Ilarrishurg next winter. We call
open the respectable Citizens of the Wards to
attend these meetings and to oppose with all
their might the machinations of these enemies
-- of the public — welfare. ..ti --- sturdy — blow - struck
kr-night in the interests of the honest men of the
cemmunity will be worth all the entreaty and
remonstrance and protest that can be 'offered
in public or private when the conventions, of
which_these tricksters :try to secure the
mastery, have done their work. -The terrible
injury inflicted upon the State by rascally le
gislation is chargeable, entirely to the indiffer
ence which has been exhibited. by respectable
citizens to such meetings as those that will be
held this evening. If we waut reform - and ade
quate proteetion for our life and property, the
eaSieSt . way to secure such results will -be ,to
control. the_ machinery, o
very first movement.
But even if the tools of the corrupt politi
cians succeed in using these meetings and the
subsequent delegate elections and- conventions
in:the interest of the clique, they will not win
the ultimate victory. The people are utterly
determined that neither the men who betrayed
them last winter nor any others of the same
bad character Shah go to Harrisburg again;
and we give these persons notice that the
people and the respectable press will not sup
port a ticket of this making simply because it.
claims to represent the wish of the Republican
party. We repudiate entirely the assertions of
the ILms this torning that " No good Repub
lican takes issu with Lis party after Lis party's
nominations have been made," ar d that,
"When the ticket is formed, good faith de
mands that. it shall be cordially supported by
all Republicans; and Le who tikes
ground against it, does so clearly in the
interest of the Democracy." The
man who votes to place in positions of
trust and responsibility a lot of dishonest and
inconipetent men, simply because they have
secured by chicanery and fraud, or other
means, places upon his party ticket is unworthy
to exercise the privileges of citizenship. He
degrades himself to the level of his candidates
and deserves all the ills that can be heaped upon
him by legislation that is bought and sold. If
persons with bad records are nominated in this
city they will be repudiated from the day the
licket-is-madef and-care-will__be laken__that_re:l
spectable and honorable men shall be presenteth
for the franchises of those who are determined
to putify...our r lo.cal.pOlities , • - • It will be better to
make this violent remedy unnecessary; but it
iv di certainly be applied if the evil is to be
cured. It might as well be understood by the
hack politicians that the day of blind obedience
to the behests of those,who chance to obtain
control of the party nominations is passed for
ever. The people hereafter will exercise their
independent judgments in criticizing the merits
of candidates; and the influential 'press will
encourage them in the ellort.
NV ELL DDI E.
General Schenck, Chairman of the Ways and
Means Committee,made a gallant and suc
cessful fight against a surprise movement of
the flee-traders, on . Saturday, for which he de
serves great credit:
When General Schenck moved to take up
the Tariff bill, in Committee of the. Whole, Mr.
Judd introduced a motion to postpone "alt
speCial code's" until the general calendar was
disposed of, and upon .. this motion General
Schenck fought and won a decided and im
portant victory. The tactics of the free-traders,
who hope, by dilitory motions, to push off the
Tariff bill over the k present session, were
most effectively eiposed.- Mr. Judd has no
hopes of passing his low tariff bill, but his
purpose is to retard the consideration of the
Committee's bill, py every means possible, and
to v:eary the country. into compliance with the
demands of the British riders',, of the free_
traders. Butler,. of Massachusetts, Benjamin,
• Aspen and McCormick, of Missouri, 4 Allison,

working to break down our American industries
and, by one parliamentary dodge after another,
to prevent the consimunation of the Tariff Bill
mow before the House.
General Schenck, although unprepared for
Athe line of manoeuvre 'adopted on Saturday,
obowed himself fully equal to the ernergeuely,
.and mitred his.opponents - .:With

the slight ciqalry of incisive wit, Mr. Judd I.

Now that the factions, policy of, useless

exposed, iris the ditty. of Congress to press , the
tariff question to a speedy settlement. There

nu untaing brother businesg . heaping 'up,'
which demand immediate attention. 'Congress
has not moved as rapidly as the country

sh es and expects, and the summer is close
upon us. It is to be hoped that the lessnn
cad to the Judd faction, on Saturday last, will
have a wholesome ellect,in,preventing a eon-,
initiation of the saute' wasteful tactics. • •
On the 13th of April Mr. Anthony pre,
vented to the Senate of flie.United States a bill
thr the better (?) organization of the Medical
Department of the Navy of the United States."
In, this bill it is proposed to abolish professional
-esaminations-olsandidatea-for—appointment to
tie office pf assistant surgeon,and to rely here
-after-on-p,-physicalexatuination a .1, college
diploma . . No " ruß. limiting the Candidate for
appointment or promotion to any partitular
school of medicine," is to be permitted. The
effect of the proposed law is to equalize the re
' spectability of all medical diplomas, whether is
--sueilly_flippocratic,_llahnentannic, Eclectic
Thompsopian, Electric or Female colleges,
teaching either of the so-called Systems of med
ical philosOPhy.
The object of this measure is to obviate the
acknowledged difficulty of tilling vacancies in
the medical corps of the navy with suitably edu
cated and professionally qualified oilicers,, with
out confertingatpon them any rank in naval Or
ganizations: Or-it may be proposed merely as
a pat liamentary dodge to head off Mr. Stevens's
bill" to regulate rank in the navy." ,Be this
as it May, Mr Anthony's project is .worthy the
attention of "The American Sledical Assoola
tion," valid' holds its session in Washington,
D. C., May 3d. This - Association was insti
tuted and held its first annual session in this
city in IS-17 for the purpose of improving medi
cal—educatimvand-thus-elevating the-profession
u the United States. 'Me system of examiva
five instituted by , the Government, about the
year 1824, in order to secure properly qualified
men for the army and navyfuedical, corps, has
always been regarded by the Association-with
favor, as a means of checking the practice of
too-many schools in bestowing their diplomaS
without sufficiently discriminating the qualifi
cations of candidates. This wholesale bestowal
of diplomas is a result of competition among
such.schools, and hence they have ceased to be
respected as evidence of professional qualifica
tion. '

and efficient service in the cause of liberty and
equal rights, the Society proposes to disband_
On fay sth, in the large hall of the Assembly-
Building, the final meeting will be held, ano
the occasion will be one of deep and solemn
interest. The old friends of the triumphant re
form, those who have been accus
tomed to assemble together time after
t -will bedeeply .. impressed with.
the importance of the event, and their rejoicing
will be tempered by the realization that they
will part then to meet no more under the aus
pices of the time-honored Society. But their
exultation over the last great victory of equal
ights will nevertheless be fervent and enthu
iastic. Their greetings and congratulations
will be heartfelt and sincere. Not only to
hem, but also to others, to all who are imbued
with the spirit of the hour, the feeling of grati
fication in view of the successful issue of the
great Amendment, will the meeting be fraught
with the deepest, rest interest. Let none
fail to be prespt on - this commemorative occa
sion.
Before to-day's BULLETIN meets the eyes o
many of our readers, the eontributoks to the
Pennsylvania ilospital prciiilailyThafe—tk
termined the question of the admission Dl'
women to the instruction of that venerable'in
stitution. To many others, however, there
time to present this caution against confusion
of ideas upon this important subject. It is not
of vital importance that any particular thirty
or forty women shall attend a clinical lecture
at a particular hospital. Sick people will die just
as fast, even if the students of the Female
➢hdical College are not added to the audiences
of the Hospital lecture-room. - But it is inipm•-
tant that the contributors pf a great charity
like this, famous, the world over, for its past
history of good woks, its present bene
ficence to the sick and suflering, and the in
valuable aid which it has incidentally given to
the cause of medical science, should not now
place itself in the attitude of the venerable
Dame Partington, and seek to trundle back the
waves of an established social fact, with the
broom cf professional prejudice, or traditional
conservatism.
TFE NAVAL MEDICAL, CORPS
SOCIETY.
Should the contributors of the Hospital_
determine upon an arbitrary exclusion of
women from the benefits of all clinical instruc
tions, they will certainly do two things which
few of their majority desire to do. They will
bring the Hospital`and the melical profession
under the almost universal condemnation of
public opinion, which will express itself in a
variety of forties, in all parts of this country
and in Europe. And they will give a great
impetus to Orrianse - of medical education
among women. It is one of the most active
instincts of the best classes of all American ,
society to take sides against every form of
arbitrary -suppression of human action and in
- favor of--whatever is thus -sought-to-tie-crushed
out.' Thousands of active men and women
will have their attention and sympathy at,
traded to the Female Medical Collece, the
Women's hospital, and the question of em
ploying female physicians, whb never hue
talia any intereSFln theste — bitt6re:
And this result will be precisely opposite to
that-a i m ed_ati air: of—women - from
all clinical irlstri • in the Teonsylvaida

The communication of our e.steeracd Comes
pondcnt " E. II.," published tin Saturday, con
veys an impression, in an incidental allusion to
the r4:inisylvania-HospitatforAhelosaiie,whiell
needs correction.. The communication, re
firing to the provisions of the charter 'of the
:ays: The wirirdS of the charter,
think, are ' for the sick and insane poor.' ; How
far the Kirkbride ' establislimenty which
is meant the Pelmayliania
D HOSpittil for the
lnsaue,— ,, serves the insane poor, is worth in
quiring into—hitt not now,"
This sentence does injustice to the Managers
of the Hospital, upon a very essential point.
In the *first place, the . oro_ theaarter are
not as quoted, but are these : "for the relief of
the sick poor of this Province, and for the re
ception and care. of lunaticks.". And in the
second place, the suggestion that the Pennsyl
vania Hospital for the Insane does not carry
out the charitable design of the founders, is
not sustained by the statistics of the Institu
tion. There are usually about 325 patients in
the Hospital, and 'Of 'this number-,.150 are sup
ported by the funds of the institution. Between
folly and fifty patients pay nothing, and about
one hundred pay nominal' sums; much below
I,e cost of their. maintenance and treatment.
In a communication so ably written, with
the view of . defending the Pennsylvania Hos
pital from w bat the - author,deems
_the dauger 7.
.ouS tendencies of : the .wOrnari meveinent, the
allusion to one of its most important depart
ments as " the Kirkbride institution," coupled
A ith the suggestion already referred to, seems
iiiconsieterit with the,general drift and tenor of
lie writer's purpose, and has a tendency to do
_sonie_injustice to the excellent_Board_of
jets and to the Perinsylvania. Hospital, which
can scarcely have been. intentional on the part
of the writer. • _ . •
- TI e - Tuil Mall - Gazette is considered 'about
the 1.. st authority among the ,L . ondon news=
papers upon American affairs; and yet it. con
stantly niakei blunders which are ridiculous,
and width display gross and unpardonable ig
norance. On Friday, the'c,able informs us, it
coal ained an article in which it , declares - that
it-is-now mpossible-to-find-an-American-who
will admit having opposed the, right of the ne
°Toes to vote." This - statement___=is made in the
face of the fact, with which every English
reader of American-newspapers should be '
miliar,that one of the two large-and powerful
parties in this country is at this , Moment the
violent opponent of -negro-suffrage, and is- en
_aged-in-denouncing-with -bitterness those .who
gave the blacks the franchise. It would be just.
.ts reasonable for us to assert that nobody
, ould be found in England who would ac
knowledge having opposed the bill for the dis

American editor who would. publish such a

this ignorant Englishman.
