f ' ,TETE iIENTIVE OF,
The advocates for destrojlng ,Sroad and
Market streets by blacking up their intersection
with nu new Public Buildings , meet all ar
guments of the superior convenience of Wash.
ington Square to the &Immunity, by loud dec
larations of the westward..march of improve
ment.
They assert that already the. centre of
population is near the llgh Sehool i or (4irard
College, or somewhere out. in the Park ; and .
they boldly, prop besy that in a few years the
centre of business will be on Broad street. We
of the old city proper allow ourselves to be de
ceived by this confident talk. We see our prin
cipal stree:s built out to the Schuylkill ;we re
cognize the .rapid ;growth of West Philadelphia,
and we know son - letting of th manner in
which Bush Dill and North Bum, .street have
been covered with houses,. We th refore stif
feronrselves to be beguiled into th idea that
the centre of population is striding north-west
ward, and we meekly content 011rSeltfe0 with
tUnitej that people's residences have nothing
to do with , their' Ipisiness avocations, aid that
the convenience of the public, lit ' the
premises, is :to be determined, not
by where a man is when he is in bed, but;
where he is while at work. • In all this we '
ignore the immense extension of the city
north and south along the Delaware—the busy.
neighborhoods which are springing up to ae
conmodate our vast industrial population, and
Which, as they are not , the result of specula- -
tion, make little` appeal to the 'public through
the newspapers. ThiS' grOwtli, in fact,fully
counterbalances the • imProvements of the West
and northwest, and keeps our centre of popu
lation nearly stationarY—vibrating,, indeed;
from year to year,With little permanent change
either east Or West. A few years , ago, when
Mr. Cohen compiled his Directory, be analyzed
the subject carefully, and published as the re_
stilt of his investigation that the :centre of but
siness was at Third and Arch streets, .and the
centre of population lay east of Seventh street.
Now we are told that the centre line of popu
lation is about Sixth street, and from the way
the Delaware river bends eastward at Rich
mond, we can readily : believe that at no future
Period will the
_centre • advance much further
west than it now is.
The distribution of ' the population and its
daily.move.ment are best shown by the Manner
in rbich the passenger railways have -estab
lished themselves for its accommodation. The
Fifth and Sixth; the Fourth and Eighth and
the Union Railways, at their extremities,spread .
themselves out like funnels, and grasp
_our
suburbs from the Schuylkill to the:Delaware,
daily pouring their tide of passengers into the,
narrow space between Filth and . Ninth streets.
On Chestnut and Walnut streets,therefore, this
is the section most speedily and conveniently
to be reaChed• from every quarter of our most
rapidly-growing districts, and this is,therefore,
the spot where public convenience most im
peratittsely..demands that offices intended for
'public resort shall be situated.
• .It is, needless to talk of the future when the
experience of the past shows plainly that .no
new conditions can be introduced to change
what is and always has been. il 'o upset the
whole business arrangements o the town by
placing the county buildings on Broad and
lisuket streets may gratify the vanity .ot a
few prosperous sections by making them be
lieve that they are nearer the business centre
than before; but it would be a, the cost of
daily and incalculable annoyance to lawyers,
clients, wituesseS, jiirynien, taxpayers—in
short of the whole community, including mer
chants,, anufacturers,, professional men, shop
keepers, tradesmen, artizans and meelianie.
We feel assured that the population of Phila
delphia is too sagacious 'to commit any such
folly. • , .
DISCREDITABLE CAMPAIGNING
There has probably never been a political
canvas .in; Philadelphia so unredeemably dis
creditable as that which is now being carried
'on in the Fourth Congressional District. The
opposing candidates for the representation of
one of the largest, wealthiest and most respec
table districts in Pennsylvania have descended
into the arena of the most common "Id vulgar
personality and individual ibuse, until friend
and fue are alike disgusted and offended by the
spectacle. The appeals of demagoguism have
taken the place of honest argument; and the'
dignity which becomes meh seeking high
boners from their fellow-citizens, has been lost
in the clamor of the most ill-tempered quarrel
ing. It is too late now to hope that this cam
paign will he brought back to any condition of
proper decorum, but it is none the less to be
deprecated by all respectable people of both
parties.
One of the latest absurdities of the advo
cates of the tiestruction of Broad street by the
erection of the public buildings across it, is the
pretence that Washington Square will be des
ecrated if built upon, account of the fact
that it was foriOrly used as a burying-ground.
This pretext will only be set forth by menwho
r are utterly desperate in their eflorts to mislead
the public mind. What is now known us
Washington Smare was originally set apart, in
1'704, as a " Potter's Field," and was used to
bury strangers and criminals in. In .1110,
larpe numberS of4he victims of the .camp 113-
vem were also buried there, in trenches, with
out any vtempt to identify them; and in the
yellow feAer season of 1793 it was used as a
burying- t;roumh Since that . tithe, nearly
eighty yeio - s ago; no interment has taken place,
and to atibet a reverence for Washington
. Smare On this'•ti,..eount wit'', after eighty years
:of use as a..pleaSure-ground, is simply childish
and ridiculous. Even when it was used as the
Potter's Field " it was so little ren•arded as
• " sacred soil" that it was regularly leased'as a
pasture ground, with the variation that it was
:regularly appropriated during the annual fairs
.• and holidays. by the, slave blacks thejr _favor
pittce for dtuicinr,c and -other ani(:seneiitl.
It speaks 'volumes for the utter shallowness el
the Penn Square advoc:ttes when they :ttr ,
-.4.lriven to such silly expedients as these. •

. ICJ William' B. Thomashasi-leas'
point in his campaign, where. be openly tells
the colored people whose votes he wants that
They we 7ipthing ,to telarei,lthlidap. party. (is
attch. If there is a 'colored man in the Fourth
District that will not resent such an insult' to
hit understanding and to his acquaintance with
the recent history 'Of his pee, it speaks very
badly, indeed, for the eaphbility of his people
to take a part in their own government.

Gers of volunteers.

WAsurivoroN, Oct. I.—A few days - ago

arrival of a vessel there laden with eleven.
thousand' sealskins, which, it was claimed;
were taken from seals captured on a newly
discovers d \ island in the Okhotsk sea, west of
Kamschittd, and therefore not subject to the
payment of royalty to the United States
GoveriEment.
There was such an air of improbability
about the story that the Collector of the Port
of San Francisco decided to hold the vessel
until be could communicate with Secretary
Boutweli. _ _
There seemfl to be good ground for the
suspicion that the skins were taken from sealS
captured along the coast of Alaska, not in.
Russian waters, as alleged.
Secretary Boutw4ll ha.sMlegraphed the Col

The Flood at Richmond—The Streets In
undated—Duch Damage Done.
RICIUSOND, Oct. I.—The streets of Rich
mond are"now flooded. The street cars have
stopped running, and People are now moving
about in boats. The lower part of the city is
entirely inundated. The Superintendent of
the gas works has notified the citizens that
they must depend,upon candles for light to
night, as-the gas works are submerged. •
All business is neglected and the banks of
the stream are lined with people watching to
see the bridges swept away. At a .quarter to
-o'clockg one-half .of the bridge leading to
Manchester was carried away, and the other
halt is momentarily expected to be swept
Ott The water is now on a level of
the floor of • the Danville Railroad
bridge. The proprietor's of the
Treaegtir Iron Works found that the canal
was overflowing its banks,and fearing that the
flood would overflow its' barriers and Sweep
through their immense establishment, hatrthe
flood-gates above..and, below their establish
ment opened.
,ThisAhowever,did not improve matters, and
it was,thought necessary to cut the bank of
the canal, which was done. '
The train going south this morning by the
Danville Railroad went only two miles and
was obliged to return finding the water boar
feet deep on the track.'
• During the excitement, this morning, the
old Libby Prison, now used as a sumac fac- ,
tory and bone mill, caught fire, but the. flames
were soon extinguished. _
' The water rose steadily all night, and has
risen about seven feet since six o'clock this
Morning. .No such freshet has been known
here within the memory of man. now living.
The river as it 'spreads along is, in some
_ gees,
_miles more than its usual width.
TR - stream is filled with evidences of the
destruction wrought higher up the country.
Several roofs of houses have floated past Rich
mond.
At Rocketts, where are most of the steam
ers'-wharvesr-there—is—great—destruction—of
property.
The wharf sheds of the James River steam
ers have been ' swept away. Fears are now
entertained for that of the °k g . wharf, where
the New York steamers ty - tinunloaded. At
a barrel factory, over two hundred feet
in length, was carried off fro.ai its foundation
by the torrent. •
We hear from Lynchburg of the loss of halt'
a million - dollars' wcitth of property, and
many lives are said to have been lost.
