TIEUE CENTEN . NIAL CEILEBIEULTIOII. I
The Corigresssional Committee " did " Phil
adelphia very thoroughly and very satisfactorily
yesterday, and while they will probably return
to Washington each to advocate the particular
locality in which he is personally interested, it
will be with an enlarged idea of the growth and
importance of Philadelphia,and with &conviction
that, ail local prejudices aside, Philadelphia is
the proper place for the centennial celebration
of American Independence.
There is no need to argue this point before
Philadelphia audiences. The proposition,ad
mite of no reasonable dispute, and we trust
that our representatives in Congress will take
the most advanced and positive ground in
urging that if there is to be any national re'cog
nition of the great anniversary, it shall•be
made upon the historic ground upon whicb
the nation began its life, and where there are
now collected such varied illustrations of its
expanding strength and growth.
' But Philadelphia must not stop here. We
must not be content to ask Congress to allow
the Centennial celebration to be held here.
We must determine, in advance, that Philadel
phia will celebrate the Centennial anniversary
upon her own soil, and among her own peo
ple. With all her historic associations, with all
her vast population,with all her great industries,
with all her vast resources, why should Phila
delphia desert the nation's birth-place and go
anywhere else to celebrate the nation's birth?
It is not necessary to multiply proofs of Phila
delphia's ability to hold her own Centen
nial celebration, and to give it a national promi
nence and importance,. beside. The Great
Central Fair, of 1864, will live in the latest
memories of this generation, as a splendid illus
tration of what Philadelphia enterprise and
public spirit can do. And they would do far
more, under the inspiration of the Centennial_
celebration of American Independence.
We trust that Congress will have the mod
sense to recognize Philadelphia, not only ds a
proper place for the celebration, but as the only
proper place for it. But if sectional prejudices
should be permitted to 'prevail over - all other
considerations, and some other locality should
be arbitrarily determined upon for the pur
pose, then Philadelphia must courteously de
cline to leave home on that eventful day, and
there will be a very large portion of the family
from all parts of the country who will be de-.
lighted to spend the birthday around the old
cradle ; and Philadelphia will give them such a
'welcome as will befit the occasion.
IRE NEGRO CADETS AT WEST POINT.
When the announcement was made that.
negro cadets had been sent to West Point, ii
was well understood that they would occup3
an exceedingly unpleasant position, even if the
professors received them with respect and the
white cadets abstained from violent demon
strations against them. But there was a strong
popular faith in the, ancient theory that Wes
lola transforms every man into a gentleman;
and those who held this theory felt assured
that the older cadets, whatever their prejudices,
- would at least act upon thatrprinciple which
conipelti a gentleman to treat with courtesy
even those whom he may regard as his infe
riors. We are sorry to say, however, that
certain of the graduates and cadets of the
Academy have done their best to destroy
popular confidence in the himianizing and
civilizing influences of the institution, by
behaving towards the negro cadets in a manner
of which the Meanest blackguard in the lowest
rank of the Democratic party would be
ashamed. Reports of the outrages committed
against these unoffending youths have beet,
circulated for some time past, but we find in a
letter to a New York paper the first definite
account of the precise character of the persecu
tions to which these negroes are subjected.
The writer says:
" concerning the words of burning insult
heaped upon these colored boys by the white
cadets I must tell the truth and let the re
sponsibility fall where it must. I have heard
'white cadets (of the older cla.ssesl say to these
buys while on drill most fiendish. things. A
cadet. who graduated two days ago said in
3,1 y hearing, and while the colored cadets
were on drill : • You d—d niggers, why don't
you get away from bete ?" You speckled
cuts, you haws like a dead nigger." Look at
he !' We'll put the d— black
rascals in the river,' &c. These are common
..pithets, and they are said directly to the face
of the colored cadets. Burning with indigna
tion, said to a graduating cadet thus swear
ing : • Hush ! don't say these things right to
the poor boys; don't speak so loud. The
answer was in a louder voice : ' I want these
stinking black rascals to bear me, and then
j4et away from here.' The indignities they
heap upon them would be unbearable to any
white boy of spirit. Hundreds of times day
they are publicly called names to their faces,
so mean that I blush to think of them. 1 dare
'rot write them."
If this report is correct, and of its truth we
have no doubt whatever, the young men who
committed the outrages must forfeit the title
of gentlemen ; and the public must admit that
_the claim_of the Academy -to-be an institution
where men are refined into a polished and
elegant aristocracy is altogether unreasonable
and false. But there is something more to be
done than the siniple denial of the right of
these boors to the respect, of, decent, men. This
penfeentien must be stoppeth• and the authors
of it must be puniShed. The West Point
Academy belongs to the people of the United
Suites, and it is supported and paid for with
their money. They have determiDed that
negroes shall have
".their -rights as citizens of
this Dation, and they recognize the claims of
negro 'soldiers upon the Country, and the._ ex„,
cel ien
the members. of the race during the late war.
7bese begroes were appointed in conformity
'to the popular wish ; and their p
* limits were •freade properly and
kpally by the same ptTer, that placed to
whito,cadets inthe Academy. They have as
good a right there as the whitemen; and while
they are there', it is thotinty,of' the governinene
to protect them-from insult, 'to punisk their
persecutors and to see that they have as fair a
chance as any of the cadets' to profit ity,the
4dvantages of the institution. --To secure these
results it will be necei.ary that the officers of
the Academy shall be just men, 'who Will treat
the negroes with impartiality and defend their
rights. If the present staff will not do this, it
should'be 'reconstructed immediately. We do
not know that its members are disposed to
treat the negroes unfairly, but it is reasonable
to conclude that such is the cat() if they permit
thein to be insulted openly while they are on ,
duty. Either they wink at the seandalous
conduct of the asSailants or they are incapable
of maintabfing that discipline which is neces
sary in an institution of this character.
Some of the persons mentioned in the report
from which "we.; quote are graduates; • and;
therefore, amenable only to the 'regulations of
the army. As . the
.Secretary of War Sympa
thizes with the negro cadets and desires to give
them a fair chance, and, as he
, is a just and
honorable man, and a gentleman, we.hope he
Will inquire , into the conduct of these graduates,
and if :they: are guilty of the offences charged;
secure their dismissal from the army. The in
fliction of such a just penalty in a few cases
would insure the Cessation of the outragespf
which complaint is made.
"METROPOLITAN.MILK."
That New York is a great city, nobody, in
his sober senses, will deny" How its people
manage to live and to keep up their great ap
pearances, no philosopher has yet been able to
explain. But there is at least one class of its
enterprising citizens the method of whose
livelihood . is reduced to a chemical analysis.
We mean the milk-dealers.
The Metropolitan Board of Health, unlike
its kindred body ii :this city, has been engaged
in a series of 'very interesting investigations of
various subjects, such as the milk supply, the
kerosene question, the gas question and.
similar topics, with many valuable results.
With regard to the adulteration of milk, Dr.
C. F. Chandler, the chemical expert of the
Board, has established - the fact that, while there
is little or no use of those substances that, are
popularly supposed to enter largely into our
milk jugs and cream-pots, such as chalk, flour,
cerebral matter, &c., &c., there is a tremendous
infusion of water. As the result of a large
series of experiments, it is determined that the
"metropolitan" milk is composed, on the aver
age, of three parts of pure milk and one part
of water. LaSt year New York and Brooklyn
received from the country 120,000,000 quarts
Of:milk. - To this were added 40,000,000 quarts
of water, and the mixture was Sold at ten
cents per quart, or four millions of dollars,
paid for Croton water, disguised as milk.- In
many of the specimens analyzed the propertion .
of water . was over ono-half, and quite a
number - of enterprising dealers - 'managed to
get fiftfp, , rix per cent. of water into their cans.
We doubt if our Philadelphia milk-dealers
are generally up to the standard of their New
York brethren of the dairy. But they are not
unacquainted with the merits of the pump,and
some of. them may not be far behind the
Gothamite standard. Taking that standard as
a guide, the milk business must be as profit
able as a seat in the Legislature, or any equally
;ticrative position.
Milk sells in Philadelphia at from eight to
ten cents per quart. The dealer buys it from
the farmer at four cents, dry Measure, which
is ten per cent. larger than liquid measure.
The farmer delivers it at the railroad and pays .
the freight to town. The dealer adds twenty
five per cent. of water, and then if he sells at
ten cents per quart, we have this result: One
hundred quarts, dry measure, costing $4, pro_
dice one hundred and ten quarts, liquid
measure. Add one quart of water to every
'Mee quarts, and we have one hundred and
forty-seven quarts, costing four dollars, and
selling for fourteen dollars and seventy cents!
Squeets was right when he exclaimed, as he
gazed into the blue depths of his wretched lit
tle boys' breakfast mugs, " Here's richness !"
I'HE CITY EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE
The Republican Wtud Executive C 011131114,
tees meet on Islonday evening next, to elect
their respective delegates to the CiV Executive
Committee. It is very importitnt that this
duty shall be wisely discharged, as upon the
Executive Committee devolve many responsi
bilities; both general and Spetial.
]:very Ward Committee should, above all
else.that it does, instruct its delegates to insist
epon\the 11 , 111.41mM of Mr. Bunn from. the
Itegider of ticket: The mere defeat of
Mr. Bunn at the polls is a matter of very little
consequence to the public ; but his
presence upon the general ticket
damages the prospects of every..other Repub
lican upon it, and the City, Executive Com
mittee cannot allbrd to go into this campaign,
()tided with Mr. Bunn, or with the Kieckners,
Clouds, Albrights and the like, who burden
the Legislative ticket. if the Ward Commit
tees, or a majority of them, will act decidedly
on Monday evening, they can relieve the Re
publican voters of Philadelphia of the only
obstacle to a glorious victory, next October.
If they are timorous, or unwilling to purge
the ticket that was nominated last Wednes
day, they will have ample time, after next
October, to regret their want of proper appre
ciation of the virtue, intelligence and inde
pendence of their own party.

PARIH, Jtine Pi, 2P. 31.—The strikes among
tradeiimen engaged in the various branches of
manufactures are spreading. The character
of the disturbance is the most formidable in
till /branches of trade and mechanism in
volved, and the movement is of such import
ance that it is suspected that the strike was
originated by the International Working
men's Society, which has its headquarters in
this - city. • . , . .
The Magnitude of the tiadesstrike in France
involves the cotton teeters of:Lille, Tours and
St.Etienne,where the liner and inferior, - grades
of cotton are manufactured. `- The . ".l,latters,
mathematical instrument-malcers and engra
vers have in some instances .particlpated in.
the movement, but the principal strength of
the strikers manifests itself among the workers
in iron and other heavy metal.
Many of the iroit fotinders.of France and
Germany, for the manufacture of cast and
hollow-ware and parts of machinery, have
been compelled to dose aecOunt
. .of . the
desertion of the Workingmen,land others 'are
about . stopping, and if'.the movement con
tinues there will be a general suspension of
operations in this branch of industry.
The English and German Unions have con
tributed one thousand pounds each to the sup•
port of the strikersduringthe continuance of
'the moveinerit.
The strike is attaining great proportions
and will cause considerable detriment-to manu
facturers and business.

Special Despatch to the Phila. Evening Bulletin.]
CHESTER, June liith.—This morning at 1
o'clock three men were observed lurking
about James street by Policeman Dierthoff;
who,suspecting something was wrong,followed
them to Market street. Upon 'accosting them,
ono of the party, struck the officer with a
jimmy, but was finally captured after a severe
struggle, in Which he endeavored to use his
revolver, and was locked up. „Another of the
gang was subsequently captured. The men
are doubtless Philadelphia professionals, as
they came to CheSter in a wagon, well pre
pared with jimmies for entering, and with
empty trunks for carrying off valuable goods,
but were preVented from effecting their object
by the vigilance of our officers.

I From the New York Herald of to-day.l
FtlinAT, .lune 17.—Wall street continues quiet. The
operators who expected an active market as the se
quence of the passage of the Currenc b have been
disappointed. The outside public are new waiting to
see what the Senate will do with the bill The reports
to-day tire that the Western and Southern Senators fa
vor it, but that the Finance Committee are opposed to
it. Meantime Wall street is In a muddle as to the remot
effect of the bill. No ono is clear as-to whether it mettle
contraction or expansion. The next step that should be
taken with the bill is so to amend it as to declare
how the three per cent, certificates{ shall
be redeemed. On this point it is not
explicit. Secretary Boutwoll has a currency
balance at present ot twenty millions. He could were
he so disposed, make that balance forty- five millions
and redeem the three per cents without availing himself
of the privilege given him by an- old law to 1.113110 greeo
backs-for the redemption of the certificates. In sutfer•
lug this important point to go without attention the
framers] of the hill have shown an ignorance of financial
mutters which Is on a par with all the finance tinke, fug
ot the wiseacres in Congress. It is to be hoped the Sen
ate is beyond the control of the national bank ring and
and that this and every measure increasing national
bank facilities on the present plan will be defeated.
The gold market weakened under the intelligence of
the defeat of the Banks' Cuban resolution, and the price
declined front 113 S to 112!4. Hero the speculators t'or tt
decline, who had been expecting a still lower market.
suddenly suspended their operations in consequence of
'the peremptory countermanding of European orders to
ship grain. It scents that England and Fraube, which
have - teen visited with a severe drought,that threatened
very short crops, were treated to extensive showers ail
last night, the effect of which has been the transmission
of cable despatches to-day suspending the militmte I or
ders to our produce merchants to Fund over all the grain
within their reach. We doubt, however, whether, tics
will prove more than temporarily arrest the fall of gold,
for the normal influences at work upon the market. are
'too powerful to be overcome. As it was, gold ran back
to 113, but closed finally nt 112%.
The government list wail very dull, with prices about.
a quarter per cent, lower, in sympathy , with the weaker
tone of the gold market,
money was easy at three to four per cont. on call,
with exceptions at two per vent. on got erneVnts. For- .
e'en exchange - was moderately active at the rates last
quoted.

In Is connection the Times gives it as its

Cuba and the slaves to the Cubans themselves
is not to be solved by postponing the question
to some future day, and the adjournment of

Masonic Snpren►e"Connell's Session in
Cincinnati.
CINCINNATI, June 18.—The session of the
Supreme Council, 33d Masonic Degree, in the
Northern Jurisdiction of the United States,
still continues. It is likely to close
its labors this morning. The newly-elected
officers were installed on Thursuay night.
The morning session yesterday was occupied
by important legislation and the reception of
reports from various local jurisdictions from
Maine to Mississippi.
During the afternoon session a spirited
discussion arose upon a matter of great mo
ment, upon which C. F. McClenalian, of
New Yorh, made a powerful address, which
was replied to by E. T. Carson, of Ohio. The
result has not been announced. In the even
ing the special order was conferring of the
highest grade in Masonry, the thirty-third de
gree, upon fourteen candidates selected from
every part
_of the jurisdiction. James W.
Busted, G. E. W., of the Grand Lodge, New
York, and Mr. Ballou,' of Vermont, were
among the number. It is Understood that the
next session of the Supreme Council will be
held in Chicago in the fall of 1871.
The attendance at this session has been very
large, and the proceedings were marked by
the reception of Albert Pike, Sovereign
Grand Commander of the Southern Supreme
Council. Grand honors ,were bestowed by
Josiah H. Druunnoncl, in open council, with
a brilliant address of welcome. The response
by Mr. Pike was worthy of his distinguished
reputation as an orator, and an evidence of
culture in the mystic laws of Masonry that it
is rarely the fortune of many persons to at
tain to,
Subsequently Giles M. Hillyer, Grand
Minister of State of the Southern Supreme
Council, was also received in like manner,
and his remarks were replete with fervid
eloquence for which the ri Germ editor of the
Natchez Courier haslong been distinguished.
Among, the most prominent Masons who
took part in the proceedings are Anthony E.
Hecker, of -Philadelphia; Henry E. Banks,
New York-; Rev. Albert Case, Massachusettsi;
Dr. Winslow Lewis, Massachusetts; Dr. Thos.
J. Carson, New Jersey; Nathaniel H. Gould,

a fearful incision in his thigh. The owner of
the tiog,when questioned as to his views upon
the matter, remarked that the dog did right.
He kept the animal, he said, for a - watchdog,
and the dog did nothing but his duty in react.-

Half dead with pain and fear, the child was
