PEACOCK, FETHERSTON & CO. Monday, May 9, 19470. THE PEPE RAI IVE hysrEm. It has long be en acknowledged, by people of advanced liberal idins, that, the theory of a' Federal system of government is unexception able." Such a system, properly organized,aud properly applied among the States of a conti nent, or of two continents, or of the whole earth, would insure harmony, promote the common prospetity and prevent the one chief horror that has brought such misery upon kingdoms, empires and republiesifor thousands Personal and dynastic ambi- of sears—win floes haver - Veen the causes - of most of the great wars of the past; and these, along with minor causes, will continue to create wars, until that blissful and perhaps 'impossible period arrives, when all differences bet Ween all the States of the earth, can be referred to a recognized au thority, like, the government at Washington, *hid), through - its executive and judicial branches, is competent to settle all difficulties between the States that recognize it. On the European as well as on the Ameri can continent, the idea of a Federal system of government has gained ground of late years. But the selfishness, the strength and the wealth of monarchs, the jealousies of rank and caste, and the'rivalries of races and creeds, must pre vent the creation-of-any proper federative sys- tem among , the nations of Europe, until each of tboEe nations is able to .throw off the monarchical system, abolish aristocracies and -privileged-glasses -of every- kind and _degree, and become` republitan in `fact "as welFas form. Republicanism is the only true basis of All the old time controversies federalism between AMerican Democrats and Federalists, in the early part of this century, might have been avoided if the controversialists—who, • teralli - were - party politicians, - as - weak - , un- - scrupulops and mercenary perhaps as those br Oaf times—ceuld }lave been as well per- suaded as we have been, after nearly a cen- tury Of trial of the federal system on republican principles, that it is the "nearest approach to perfection that can be devised, as a system of givernnrent for vast territories, of different ,climates and soils, and - occupied by people di verse in race,lreligion and temperament. Some of the most selfish and ambitious des pots of the present time have given their appro- ♦al of the federative system to a certain degree —that is, in its application to countries that were not recognized as their peculiar property. In 1E59 Napoleon 111. proposed it at Villafranca as the remedy for the evils that distracted Italy ; and even Cavour, one of the greatpst of modern liberal European statesmen, did not seriously oppose,the idea, _until he found that he . could solve the Italian question by making his master, victor Emmanuel, King, and ex-, tending the authority previously confined to Piedmont, over - Northern itaVand the whole peninsula. The different States of Germany have long recognized the federative system ; but it has been used, in past times, to perpetuate old feudal and. fossilized institutions, all of which were barriers in the path of that kind of popular liberty -which is only to be found under republican government. After the triumph of Prussia iu the war of IStiti, it would not have been diffi cult for her to declare all the territory of her adversaries to be part of the kingdom of l'russia, or of a great German Empire, with Berlin as its capital, and King William ou the imperial throne. But he, acting under advice of that compeer of Cavour among modern European statesmen, Count Bismarck, recog nized the value of the federative system, and the result was the North German Confedeia- Lion, under which the people of the various ---States-are-more.. prosperous_than.. e ver,_though_ dynasties have disappeared, and the house of jlobenzollern has risen to greater glory above their ruins. The federative system has received this recognition even from a sovereign who had every temptation. to declare himself master of all Gel many. Not a war has occurred between different powers in Europe for centuries that could not have been avoided, if the federal system, es tablished on really republican principles, as it is now in the United States, -had been in ex istence. i This,is admitted by every intelligent European who' is not bound to some particular monarchy or caste to which republicanism would be fatal ; ' arid there is a not inconside rable party that not merely dreams of a fede ration to he called the "The United States of EuroPe," but is laboring for its establishment. We all know that war between different states or sections of this Republic, since it has, through the rebellion and the amendments to the Constitution, become really republican, is impossible. if any difficult question shoulli arise between any of the States, the federal government can settle it without war. If any great wrong is done in a state, whose power is insufficient to procure redress, the federal power can be used instantly. ~But in Europe, when a party of brutes .waylay, seize, rob and murder a few pleasure travelers, as was done lately in Greece, all the Gieat Powers, so called,.are _put into a fever and fret, and there must be correspond- • Met: and what is called " diplomacy," and Eno land, France, Italy, Russia, Prussia, Turkey and the others must each be consulted, so that the punishment-of the scoundrels can. flicted ithout disturbing that huiribug, the ance of power, fir t reading_orLthe_corns_of_ Emperor, Czar, Pope, Sultan,.kineor Queen.. No better illustration of the wretched chara6- 7-4,-er_ed mkoVenitniffic" compared with that of the federative Republic of America,.can Le given than this abomina ble piece of business that we have heard of. . lately in Greece. The only way to prevent -such, outrages and scandals and excitements, is icildake all Europe a federative Republic. But ibis cannot be done in our time, - nirt perhaps Sorteiituries after. It must come sometime, BULLETIN. As.a general ride, it:h3 never anybody's fault. When public service is neglected Or - badly done. Thete is alWays such a clever - distribution of iesponsibility, that the blame of any pirticular misdoing' floats around the Official ei n iLie — diss;pated s into thin air.' in the,interesting ease of Haggerty, for *stanee, who Lis_ to blame ? Here is a man, well known to -the pOlice and . court . authorities. -He has been charged with numerous crimes. Be has been convicted of some of them, and the Eastern Penitentiary keeps a• ‘4 light in the window " for hinh,to . this day,, Just now, the charges against Haggerty are not numerous ; but they are of some impOrtance. One of them al leges that he still has a legal residence in the Penitentiary, and the other has reference to a trifling assault ppon a very valueless ex-mern- - ber of the police force, one Hill. Haggerty has been 'a fugitive from justice for several months past,"arid is said to have been _residing in that grand haunt of all the villainies, New York. There he has figured in two or three characteristict , broils, and did the State st - me service on one occasion, by nearly beat log another famous ruffian to death. It is as serted that he has paid several visits to Phila delphia, and, if we are to Judge froth the com plete impunity which he enjoys, will probably re-establish himself bete,. and run for the Legis lature, or some other equally distinguished office. Now, who is to blame for this standing in ; suit to lavv.? _The Mayor says that he is 'not to blinne, and gives a circumstantial - statement of what he has done - to promote Haggerty's capture. His police cannot go to New York after Haggerty, although they might possibly arresthim, when he comes to Philadelphia. Is the Court to blame P We fear that it is. It is directly interested in his capture: Its officer, Mr. District Attorney Sheppard, preferred the charge that he was still liable to imprisonment, on his old sentence.: -The dignity of the Court, was outraged by Haggerty's bold escape. The majesty of the law has been Insulted by his re peated violations of its commands. The cads° : of justice is seriously damaged—by- this -man43 sficceSsful - defiance of -- its petrel., and flie • in: jury is increased rather than diminished by the lapse of time. To pretend- that Haggerty cannot be found and arrested is mere folly. He would have been produced months ago if it had been madeworh - arty - on - e's - tinte - and trenble - to - cap- - ture him. , Whether Judge Brewster's de cision, upon the eve of which Haggerty made his escape, was favorable or otherwise,—and Some intimation of its tenor seems to have reached the prisoner,—it is undoubtedly the duty of the District-Attorney and of the Court to bring this fugitive - from - justice to the'hiar. . The responsibility.. evidently lies within a narrow circle, and can readily be brought. down - to a precise point: • . The whole reason of Haggerty's non-arrest is to be found - in the fact that no reward Os been offered for him, and no real earnest -desire -to - capture him has been felt. In privateircles it is whispered that Haggerty " is not anted." But be is wanted. ii Judge - Brewste • meant. to decide the Penitentiary question in us favot he bas the right to the benefit of that ecision. If otherwise, the Penitentiary, and the law which it represents, want him. It will not be to the credit of the District-Attorney or the Court if he is not soon produced. We suggest to the Committee of Councils that will have charge ofthe appropriation for public baths, that a wise disposition of one , Ithousand of the fifteen thousand dollars would be to give that amount to the Bedford Street Mission, for bath tubs and the requisite appur tenances. The arguments which prove the ne cessity for supplying bathing facilities to tlie general population, apply with tenfold force in the case of the people of the Bedford street district ; for they indulge in conditions of per sonal filth of which the most uncleanly persons h(iwci•cr, or- Europe must rehr r se into bar . WOO IS TO DIANE ? elsewhel e cannot conceive. Last year private contributions were-obtained for the purpose of knitting into operation two or three bath tubs in he Mission, and the poor creatures of the neigh borhood kept them inconstant operation. One of the good results of this benevolence was, that there was not a death in the district during the v6llole of last summer. Although appeals have been made to the public this year for means to continue the good work, there has been no re sponse ; and we think Councils might justly Ltive a small portion of the sum d-voted to the election of free baths to establishing perma nent! arrangements for bathing •in this district. The cost will be very small; one thousand dollars will cover the whole of it. IL the expenditure is made it will .probably be found that the investment will prove a good one;, for we believe it will improve the physi cal and moral health of the forlorn community. -more than any other thing that can be done for it. The Hpard of Health has d Ile good and Valiant service in Bedford stret during the past week. That thoroughfare h s been cleaned completely and thoroughly; aid it is now sweeter and more 'seemly than t has been fQr twenty years past. The forces of the Board \ will now be turned into others of the courts and alleys, where the work will be done as completely as in Bedford street: We think : , however, that the Board made a mistake in undertaking to accomplish the Herculean labor piecemeal. While the alleyc are lying in filth, awaiting their turn, the miasma which comes fri m them is spreading out into the city and carrying the fever into districts that have hitherto been uninfected. It would be better to employ a large force of scavengers and have the woik all done at once. The cost will be precisely the same as if a smaller number of men are employed for a longer time, and the . result will be immediate destruction of the material upon which the fever feeds.

The King, anti queen are absent traveling in the islaudlS of the Archipelago, and the Prime Minister, Zaimis is with them.

But, when -- the ladies arrived with Mr. Herbert's letter, 'M r.

The following morning a second letter ar rived, addressed by the brigands - -themselyes to-Mr.-Erskine, the•Brittsblainister,.ia which, they stated that, having considered the mat. ter better, they raised the price of ransom to £lO,OOO for each of their prisoners, and now demanded DA" ).Otte in all. - • - To.day Lord — Mlincaster arrived himself, sent on parole, having pledged himself to send thEmoney before Saturday, or return himself again on that day if he-did ..notsucceed ob taining it, the rest of the captives being host - ages for the fulfillment of his promise. lie had come to a new settlement with 'the bri gands, who now consented US take £25,000 - if paid in gold before Saturday. He states that the brigands are :30 in number, *longing to the well-known band of Aryanitake, an young, hardy, daring.looking men. The oldest among them, the chief, is hardly more than 30 years of age. They treated their prisoners with every courtesy, and danced before them— Greek national dances for their amusement when they bivouacked during day-time, but marched them nearly off their legs all night. On Monday night they had marched incessantly up awl down the ridges of Pentad's, without one moment's rest till morning, when they found themselves not very far from the place of their capture. They had been kept concealed in a deep ravine • all yesterday (Tuesday), where they procured and roasted some lambs for their dinner. As soon as darkness set in they had set off again, and marched all night, finding themselves in the morning at the foot of the opposite hill, the Parnese, having crossed the whole of the plain dividing that bill from the Pentelicus. 1 here he had left them, as arranged, with a guide provided by the brigands, who had con ducted him to a village, placed him in a village cart in charge of a village boy, and left him to be driven thus into Athens. Lord Muncaster says the money must be got ready before Sa turday, or else he will have to return to the bri PSI Witi. Mr. Erskine is doing all he can to procnre the ransom, but it is not an easy thing to get .025.000 in gold in Athens, at a moment's no tice. and it has rather produced a commotion in the money market. There are a great many Americans here just _ _atpre..ent., an .thin is the seaswn for traveling._ Some bad even been up on the Pentelicus the day before.

COLIANSi-Adjutant-General2, ' EXCITF MEN TAT A FUNERAL.-JIL9t as' the hail and rain storm commenced in this city, yesterday. a .funeral procession was starting from a house in Seventeenth street, below Pine. About twenty carriages; containing relatives and friends of the family, were form irg. The horses became unmanageable in consequence of the pelting of the hail. They started at a furious rate up Seventeenth street. The driv.er of the hearsecontaining the corpse, a child, in attempting to stop the horses, ran the hearse against a tree-box, and before he could get away, two of the carriages ran into the 'hearse, breaking the wheels of the hearse and damaging the sides, but .the fatening at the bottom of the vehicle prevented am,ilamage to the coffin. The driver of one of thecarriages-broken-by the collision with the" hearse was thrown vio lently to the ground, receiving such . danger -0138 wounds in his bead and back that it was thought best to remove him .to the .Hospital,. where lie now remains in a critical condition. Ills name is Patrick Dugan, and he resides in Quarry street. A lady suffered a sprained wrist. The coffin—was—removed—from -the _br - okexi—hcarse_to_one_of_the carriages and with two others proceeded to the Cathedral Cemetery. The excitement among the occu - pants of the carriages, as well as among—the citizens in the neighborhood, was intense. Two or three vehicles were- badly broken. THE BEDFORD STREET DISTRICT.—At the meeting of the Board of Health, to-day; a re- Port was received from John E. Addicks, Esq., Health Officer, announcing that only four eases of relapsing fever were taken from the- Bedford street district. to the Hospital on Sat= urday, and only two cases this morning_ for Sunday and the remainder of Saturday. John S. Tbackeray, Measurer, of the Board of Health, reported to the Health Officer this morning : ---" I have been familiar _with the sanitary condition of Bedford (now Alaska) street fora number of years, and have never before found it so free front' any kintkof filth that would be likely to breed diseases.' S. B. Martin, Initpector, who has been de tailed for that distriet T submitted the following report this morning; 1 have just, finished examinations between Fifth and Sixth, in Alaska and Bainbridge streets. Faye also gone over the greater por tion between Sixth and Eighth streets, and Lind everything in pretty good condition. Or. N,-Shane says be -thinks we have the fever now under control. Three cases sent off on the 7th, anfftwo this morning. He also says that we have done a great deal of good in this ighbothood within the past week. * * * I would recommend that the laboring gang be rstluet-d, anti also thie..whirewashers, as I can not find enough work to keep them all em ployed. Many-of the people have become alarmed, and have cleaned up their- own houses, which gives us less to do." - . . H. Earnest Goodthan,M. D.,Port Physician; reports the lc-lap:4W' fever on the decline: There are families still 'having the fever, but Ito lo.ep it from being known to avoid the hospital. He found one such, this morning, with live fever patients. ,He thinks that the force or workmen can be readily lessened. LOCAL CnownEn.—The North American says the hail-stones yisterday "were as large as common pebbles." We like that sort of pre cision, but people abroad must not think that the hail was the size of the Philadelphia cobble-stones, which are our commonest pebbles. The great riddle introduced by the hail, yet li - -rday, was easily seen through. -It lee itself into our parlors so unceremoniously that it could scarcely be said to be guest. _A.greatioany.otAbe_ hail:stones, yssterday,_ weighed half atm). But it was only a great man". At St. Mark's Church, yesterday, the wes indow was dreadfully shattered by the hail The hail-ohs ! were all knocked off the apostles heads. After the ice-storm, yesterday, the glaciers had it all their own way. Putty bad, tbat. Id any people had to stuff up their win dows last night with counterpanes. By a singular coincidence, the installation of the Rev. Mr. Cain, last evening, began by singing "All hail," &c. Glass came down yesterday, but it has gone up to-day tremendously. Can a green-house, - with twenty thousand panes smashed by the hail, be called an-iee house? AsnAuvriNo WomEN,-Edward Meade; op Saturday night, is alleged to have quarreled with and knocked down Mrs. Welsh, at Sec ond and Lombard streets. Alderman Car pe tiler sent, him to prison. B enry McCoy got into a row with the mis tress of his boardinghouse, at Fifth and Lombard streets, .on Saturday night, and slapped her face. For this he had to appear belore Alderman Carpenter.
