THE SITUATION IN EUROPE.
The Prussian army is slowly but surely closing
around Paris,and the question must soon be de
cided whether the King has determined to make
peabe beneath the walls or to refuse to enter
into negotiations untilhe can dictate terms in
the capital. It is Evident that it rs to be left to
him to fashion his policy in accordance with
his own will, for there are no indications that
foreign powers will interfere until the demands
cf Prussia are made known; and not even
then, unless there is a disposition Jo dismem
ber Prance. It is now ascertained, .almost
positively,-that Russia desired to join, with
Austria, Italy aniaEngland im a peremptory
protest against prosecution of the war to such a
conclusion, but that this design was defeated
by the .cowardly refusal of England' to have'
anything to do with it. The action of the
Gladstone Government possibly represents the
filing of the aristocratic classes of Great
Britain, for they have long inclined to sympa
thy with lhe French Empire, and they can
have no other sentiment for the Republic than
one "of hatred; But it is' certain
that there is, throughout tiro
middle and lower “ classes of The ■ Kingdom,
a feeling of sympathy for the Provisional
government of France’, and of disgust with the
cold-blooded indifference of the British Cabi
net to its destruction by prosecution of the
war to a more bloody conclusion.. This feel
ing :is intensified by the reflection thatthe pres
ent policy of England makes - the influence of
that power in Europe even smaller than it was
before the present war. If England had joined
her-voice with those of the three other powers
named, it is quite possible that Prussia would
have considered it advisable to negotiate for
peace upon such reasonable terms as those of
fered by M. Thiers—the payment of an enor
mous sum of money, surrender of half the
French fleet and of the fortresses of Metz' and
"Strasbourg. If the war is continued until
thousands more Frenchmen , and Prussians are
slain, the responsibility will rest in a measure
with England; and she will be not less to biame
if the subsequent demands of Prussia are of
such a character that the. promise of forcible
interference on the part of Russia,.ltaly and I
Austria, is fulfilled. .
That King William will have another war
on his hands if he imposes harsh terms-upon
France is hardly doubtfuL Russia has given
almost positive assurance of her intention to
avenge dismemberment of France, and she is
in a position to make good her threat, sup
ported as she is by allies, both of whom have
abundant provocation. It is believed that
Bismarck Is anxious to accept theliberal offer
made by M. Thiers. He perceives the folly of
that policy which grasps at so much that it
risks the loss of everytlilng. But reports say
that he is overruled by the King, who has
determined upon gathering the fullest fruits of
his Victory. We shall soon know the truth of
this story. But we may easily perceive, even
now, that one great obstacle in the King’s
mind to offering peace is his unwillingness to
recognize and treat with the Provisional
Government.
A despatch from Berlin asserts, it may be
without authority, that the King has decided
that the republican ministry has no legal exis
tence, and that, whenJParis is taken, the Senate
and Corps Legislatif will be convened, the Em
press will be replaced in the Regency, peace
will be concluded, and then the Emperor will
be permitted to return. If this almost incredi
ble 6tory is true, the King has determined to
do an exceedingly foolish thing. The present
ministers usurped the power to be sure, but
jjjgy-flja it-in- a -g r aYe"c r isi ß r'when“they-could
have had none bat patriotic motives. They
have as good a right to the government as Na
poleon had to Imperial power, for he usurped
that, not for the country’s good, but to gratify
his vile ambition. The divine right of Jules
Favre is even more apparent than that of Louis
Napoleon. But it Prussia denies this fact and
attempts to build again the broken image of
Imperialism and set it upon the throne of
France, it will remain there only until the pow
er that replaced it is withdrawn. Theone great
fact of this war is the utter overthrow of Bona
partism. It can never curse the French nation
again, and we cannot think that the Napoleons
will be foolish enough to try the experiment-
If they thrust themselves again upon France,
there will be a revolution, which will express
with ferocity French hatred of the family,and the
shame and rage with which the nation regards
the French prince who could submit to hold a
sceptre placed in his hands by the enemies of
France. We can hardly believe that King Wil
liam will try this experiment, or that Napoleon
will be made his tool for the purpose. The
Prussians have two alternatives; recognition of
the republic, or elevation. of ,one of the Orleans
princes to the throne.' if they pursue their
triumph to the end, we think they will choose
the latter. The lovers of liberty all over the
world hope they will determine to accept the
former, or will be compelled to do it.
BROAD STREET.
Councils meet this afternoon, after their
summer vacation, and a large amount of busi-'
ness will immediately press upon them. We
trout that the gentlemen of both branches have
returned home fully recuperated by their holi
day, and that they will at once address them
selves earnestly, and conscientiously to the in
public dnties. In past years,the autumn months
have often been frittered away in dilatory leg
islation when they might have been employed
in disposing of matters of the utmost import
ance to the interests of Philadelphia.
Amongthe urgent demands upon the atten
tion of Councils none press more peremptorily
than those of Broad street. That splendid
avehpe has been permitted to remain in a
condition of disgraceful.neglect, throughout a
great part of its length, and where it has been
«* repaired” it has been done bp ; replacing the?
old abomination of the coble-stone pavement,
by a new one of exactly-the same pattern. T.he,
condition of many of the side-walks jfl simply
outrageous, and property-owners have .been,
permitted an amount of indulgence that could,
not have been exceeded had the Inspectors of
the Board of Health had charge of their re
pairs. - - ■; ——
The great need of Broad street,—and it is an
immediate one,—is & first-class wooden pave
ment. The street is to be the great public
promenade and drive of Philadelphia. The
draft upon it will be, almost wholly, in light
vehicles, and smoothness, solidity, quiet, and
faciiity for constant cleaning are the requisites
to be attained.
We believe that this subject is now in the
hands of a special committee of CouncilSi and
that committee has certainly had time enough
to consider the whole subject, in all its bear
ings. It is needless to say that the work of
paving Broad street for two or three miles is
one of considerable magnitude, and that it
offers tempting inducements to “ set it- up
into a fat job. But it will be a very dangerous
thing for any ring or clique in Council to tamper
with this Broad street appropriation. There
are plenty of men in both branches, and
plenty more who are hot in either,
who are wide awake to this subject, and who
Will hot. permit any Speculation on the contract
"for paving Broad street. The people have got
to pay a large sum for the improvement of
this grand thorough fare,and they mean to have
their money honestly spent for ilie very best
pavement that can be procured. The earlier
efforts at wooden pavements have hot been
satisfactory, and some of the subsequent ex
periments have been miserable failures. A bad
wooden pavement, —and any pavement but
the ray-Oest is a bad.one,—will be worse tbau
none at all, and Councils will be held to a strict
andfair.accountifauyinistakeis.madeintlie
Selection, or any "‘ job” is allowed to interfere
with an-honest carrying out of the people’s
wish, or the expenditure of the people’s money.
While we urge upon Councils the keenest
scrutiny into this important question, there
cannot be any proper reason for further delay
in determining it. The special committee has
had ample time, and a great deal to spare, in
which to make the fullest comparison of the
relative merits of the different patents. If the
committee is not ready to report now, there is
not much reason to believe that it ever will be,
and its immediate report should therefore be
demanded, We are not disposed to attach
too much importance .to every idle rumor of
favoritism or unfair dealing in such mat
ters as this. The committee may have
found real difficulty in deciding upon the ques
tion of the best pavement. But if it is still in
doubt, it had better state its c,tse to Councils,
and lay before them the result of its investiga
tions, and.allow Councils and the public to
decide. If the Nicolson pavement is not as
durable as other pavelnents, then the earlier ex
periments on Broad street,must not be re
peated. If it is, in all respects, the best, then
let us have it. But let us have the matter set
tled at once, and half the pavement can be laid
before the frost sets in. Only, gentlemen of
the City Councils,keep a keen watch that there
is nothing in this gigantic wood-pile that ought
not to be there.
the safety switch.
The Convention of Railroad Master Me
chanics now in session in this city comprises a
body of men to whom the live 3 and property of
the people of this country are largely com
mitted. Upon the intelligence, skill and en
terprise of these gentlemen the safety of travel
upon our great net-work of railroads mainly de
pends. To their ingenuity and sagaciousjudg-
rnent is referred the whole wide subject of
those mechanical appliances which concern,not
only the economical working of the railroads,
but also the comfort and protection of the pre
cious freight of human life that is forever hur-
rying to and fro throughout our almost bound
loss territory.
This is a fitting time to urge upon the at
tention of these practical master mechanics
one of those appliances for railroading for
which we are indebted to the inventive genius
of one of our own townsmen, the Wharton
Safety Switch. This simple but ingenious con-
trivance has now been in operation, experi
irientally,forBeveraly'ears,'ahdh;isbeeuex-
posed to tests whose severity and duration
settle the question of its efficiency. A whole
class of the most destructive railroad accidents
will he swept out of the range of possibility,
whenever this Safety Switch come ß into gene
ral use; and now that its construction has been
so simplified and improved as to remove the
one objection of its first cost, there seems
to be no longer any excuse for delaying its
universal introduction on all important roads.
The Pennsylvania Railroad, always ready to
adopt ail real improvements, has subjected the
Safety Switch to a crucial 1 test, at Altoona and
at West Philadelphia,,-at points where it is ap
plied to the whole prodigious travel and traflic
of that great road. The result has been per
fectly satisfactory, and wilino doubt be fol
lowed bjtits adoption along the entire line. We
presunie that the delegates to the Master
Mechanics’ Convention will avail themselves of
their present opportunity of examining the
practical working of the Wharton Safety
Switch at West Philadelphia, and we hope that
the time is near when “ a misplaced switch”
will no longer be pleaded in escuse for those
terrible accidents which have so often carried
desolation and death into the homes of the
American people.
ART ITEMS.
—Mr. Norton Bush, an artist of San Fran
cisco, has traveled lately in the vicinity of
Panama, and thence down into South America,
on a professional sketching tour, fortified by
imumbor of orders from gentlemen who ap
preciate bis talent.: One of his-pictures,be
spoken by a gentleman of this city sometime
resident in Panama, has just been framed at
Earles’.' It is a Beene taken from the border
land between Ecuador and New Granada, near
the town of Popayan, and represents the
peaks of tbo Andes at sunrise. A river flows
through the valley, dotted with the buildings
of a little Spanish mission, while the feathery
outlines of palms and the drapery of stream
ing vines are relieved against the. morning
sky. Mr. Bush paints with conscience and.
1 fidelity, and, for a self-made artist, such as wo
understand ho Ib, displays a remarkably good
method. \ \ *

has kept up its delightful meetings regularly
for many years,and its greater privacy has en
hanced the pleasure of its symposiums. It has
exerted a quiet but powerful influence on the
practice of art and the cultivation and commu
nication of good taste. It is to be expected
that the meetings this season will he equally
pleasant with those of last, which filled in the

Montreal, Bept. 15.—Crowds of people still
continue to arrive to witness the races. The
police station and waiting-rooms of the hotels
were crowded last night with lodgers. The
betting has been general, even sporting men
waiting for odds to be offered. The feeling is
decidedly in favor of the St. John crew. Up
wards ot $50,000 has already been deposited
on the result. Messrs. Potter and Adams have
been selected to act as umpire and judge. It
is reported that Walter Brown', of Portland,
Me., is anxious to match himself and John
McKiel, ofNewburg, N. Y., against Reuforth
and Tavlor, two of the Tyne crew, for a race
on the St. Lawrence river.
The following, races., too k--place yesterday:-
First was a single scull race of two miles for
the championship of the St. Lawrence, which
was won by Robert Berry (colored), of To
ronto ; time, 1G minutes 40 seconds. Second
was a four oared race of four miles for one
hundred and fifty dollars, whichjwas won by the
McLaren crew; time, twenty-five minutes one
second. Third was a race for four-oared un
rigged boats, two miles, open to boys under
sixteen 1 ; first prize, twenty dollars; second
prize, five dollars, was won by the Shoo Fly;
The fourth race, for double scull outriggers,
two miles, for a purse of one hundred dollars,
was won by the Berry crew ; time 15.35. The
pick-pockets are very busy among the sport
ing gentlemen. Among the loosers by their
raids, yesterday, were several newspapermen,
among whom may be mentioned, the eastern
agent ot the American Press Association,who
lost sixty dollars; a correspondent of the
Boston Traveller, who lost one hundred and
fifty dollars, and a correspondent of the New
York Herald, who was relieved of one hundred
dollars.
A match has been proposed to take place
between Walter Brown and the negro Berry,
and a deposit of $2OO has been made as a for
feit.
To-day the great race for the championship
of the world tor $5,000 will take place between
the St. John and Tyne crews, a distance of six
niilesl -- -

tiful with a light southwest wind. There is
no doubt that the great race between the Tyne

crew are the favorites at ten to nine, but the
sporting men fight shy, awaiting the hour of
the race.

Translation of St. Anreliana.
The Roman Catholic ceremony of transla
non.wkieliis rarely performetl. has hitherto
been quite unknown in this country. It was
performed yesterday, however,.by His Grace,
Archbishop Purcell, in the chapel of St. Clare
Convent, occupied by the Franciscan Sisters
of the Poor.
The remains were those of Saint Aureliana,.
a virgin martyr of the second century, who is
supposed to have been amember of the family
of the Roman Emperor Aurelian.
These remains, and the sarcophagus which
contained them, were brought from the Ro
man catacombs, to the Convent of St. Clare
by' Mrs. Peters; ' who has endowed that con
vent.
This, lady will be remembered as the first 1
lady'ever.admitted to hear mass within the
tomb of St, peter. The remains were pre
pared for : the'ceremony withgreat care.
The bones which were incomplete were first
embedded in wax in their proper relative
positions, and the rest of the body was then
constructed of the same material, and they
were finally draped in tbe simple habiliments
of a Roman maiden, and presented a natural
and almost life-like appearance.
At the close of the ceremonies at the chapel,
which included a aermon and benediction by
the Right Rev. Archbishop, the remains were
carried in procession and placed in a sarcoph
agus and placed In a tomb which had been pre
pared for their reception.
