PEACOCk. FETHERSTON & CO. Priam , * October 7, 1870. THE ISHERIFFALTY. We invite attention to a catxl in another column recommending the election of William H. Leeds to the office of Sheriff. The names signed to it are those of many of thevery best citizens of Philadelphia, to whom Mr. Leeda "is known " as possessing the qualities deemed necessary for the proper administration of a public office. Each name and firm among the signers to this . paper represents more intelli gence, honesty and responsibility than can be found in the whole mass of the malignant -as sailants.of Mr. Leeds. MAYOR FOX'S POLICE AS CAN. VASSERS. We ask attention to the circular sent to the policemen of Philadelphia lately, "by order of -the Democratic candidates," as ion. Samuel J. Randall declares under his signature. This outrageous mode of employing the police force upon inquisitoriaevisits to private houses, and on duty as canvassers for the election, is some thing for which we are indi_lbted to a Demo cratic municipal administration. It is in spirit, if not exactly in letter, a gross, violation of .Mulholland's " Manual," which forbids policemen from working in behalf of apolitical party. Tnr. LEARNED INSTITUTIONS AND PENN SQUARES. The parties who are engineering the move ment in favor of carrying the public buildings up to -the intersection of Broad and Market streets 'are making winch use of the argument that, if Washington Square be chosen, the Act of Legislature donates without consideration the Penn Squares to fain' scientific and learned ' institutions. An outcry is thus raised that the people's property is to be given away to private corporations; and this outcry, we are told, has not been jthout a certain' effect. Now, Our readers need not-be reminded that when, sotrio years ago, the project was first broached of, placing on Penn Squa.tes the Academy of Natural ScienceS, the Adademy of Fine Arts, the: Franklin Institute •and the Philadelphia Library; we warmly encouraged it as a Move ment, which would do much to ,res ore to our • city the - fbiemost-placeit - onee - hld - as a, centre of intelligence and culture. Nothing has since occurred to induce us to change this view, and we ffave regarded, the prospect of this use of Penn Squares as one of the numerous reasons why the popular voice should require the pub .lie buildings Co be placed on Washington" Square, though we have heard, On tolerably good authority, that the clause was inserted in the bill for the special purpose of defeating Washington Square by the very outcry which has been raised on the subject. When the bill was signed by the Governor in August, it was published iu the city papers. Singularly enough, as thus published, the clause in question was incorrect. It leads : "In the event of Washington Square being se- 4 ' lected by the majority of voters as fire loctition for said public buildings, then the Councils of -Philadelphia are empowered and required to et , a p ar t, on such !my:, and •on.ditiei/ 7 % ft:, may be agreed open between Councils and the - . Franklin Institute, Academy of Fine Arts, Academy of Natural Sciences, and the Phila delphia Library," the Penn Squares for those, institutions to build on. As this left the terms oon. which the squares could be 8o used to the representatives of • the . pebple, no objection could be urged against it, as no one tau sup pose that Councils would exercise the discre tion thus given them to the dettiment of the people. It now appears, however, that this clause is altogether erroneous. The act, as oflicially printed, gives an entirely different reading. In the event of the selection of Washington Square it proceeds : " Then, and in that event, the Councils of Philadelphia are hereby authorized and empowered and required to (set apart for and convey by proper deeds or grants of conveyance or by proper assuran ces of the right to occupy said squares, which' the Mayor of Philadelphia shall duly sign and execute, under the seal of the said city, the four squares of ground known as the Penn Squares • • • • • one to each of the following institutions, &e." .7Sow, whether intentionally or not, this clause is ingeniously contrived to be as distaste ful as possible to the people, and at the same time to nullify itself. Alit apparently gives no discretion to — eouncilsAut renders the grant absolute, it affords grounds for the outcry which : has been raised. Yet no one, on rellec thin, can imagine for a moment that the Le gislature can convey the •property of the-city without its consent any more than it can that of a private 'individual. This is the common sense view of the matter, and it is sustained .hy 'the ()linden Or .* (!bunsel. The af_r lature exhausts its power in kudkorizing Coun cils to grant the use of the squares, and it can- not compel them. The act, in this respect, amounts to nothing more than an enabling ;ON and if the people vote for. Washington Square, then the inStitutions.named4in the bill can only apply to Councils, and negotiate with them as to the terms and conditions on which the use of the squares may be enjoyeA.,.!. When this stage is reached we trust that the repre‘ . . sentatives of the people may be disposed to ex ercise their power in a liberal spirit, and secure for the confinunity the advantages which can-' not fail to spring from the concentration and enlargement of the institutions which have al ready,contributed so greatly to the higher etliu= cation of our people7That the buildings which tkey will be required to erect will be an orna 7 iOnt to the city is sufficiently provided for by the act, which. directs that all the plans shall be Object to the approval of the Public BuildingS Commission. • It will gratify the • many Meads df Major Richard Somers Smith to learn that he tia been appointed Professor of Mathematics in the United States Naval AcademY,. at An napoliii, whither he proceedrinimediately Lv enter upon his duties. No one can be better qualified for the position, and he will till iL with fidelity and distinction. *HAT% TO PAT? Two Ofthe most 'pernicious causes of cor ruption in the political and social system of our large communities are the fees of public • officers, alid the rewards Offered . for the re covery of stolen goods: Out of the: first of these grows a very large part of the political corruption of the day,since It offers pri*s •to politician's so rich as .; to constitute a degree, of, temptation which wiry few men indeed can resist. Many offices exist with salaries so. -small-that first•class mete-cannot afford , to-take - thein, but with fees and perquisites so large that they are worth plotting and intriguing far, sometimes for years ahead, worth all the bul lying, bribing and cheating that So often turns our primary elections and nominating conven tions into the merest parody tpon any real ex pression of the popular will. Out of the second, grows another class of evils, in. some respects more dangerous than the first. It cannot be doubted that our present detective system is, in its essential *inciple, rotten to the core. The habit of ofiering large rewards for _the __recovery of stolen goods is a direct premium upon crime, both in the case of the detective and of the criminal. If is not the interest of the detec tive to break up the dens of thieves and burglars and receivers of .stolen goods, se long as they reap the rich rewards offered by those who compound Felony for the sake of recover ing their goods. The thief and detective, in most cases, are, in a very strong sense, partners in trade. A burglary is committed. Perhaps a store is entered and thousands of dollars' worth of goods are carried off. The detec tives are sent for, and; in nine cases out of ten; the first question is : What's to pay? . The reward to be offered is first discussed and settled. Then negotiations begin between the detective and the thief or the receiver. If the amount of the reward is large enough, the goods are produced. If not, the owner is led to believe,.that the . detectives have not yet got -- on the right track. If he can be stimulated to increase the reward,, his property may be ,re stored to him. If not, the pretended search is soon dropped, and the goods are taken off to some other 'city and sold. If the goods are re stored ; the - thief is left free to pursue his evil ways ; or if he is arrested as is occasionally done,, he is put under some worthless bail, and is not heard of ~gain until he commits some • new crime.- "All this is of common occurrence, and will continue to be common, - until detec kives are compelled to live upon their salaries tind the whole system of rewards is broken up. There are well-known haunts in every large city, where thieves and other criminals congre gate, and other equally well-known (lens where stolen goods are received and secreted. But so long as there are large sums of money to be made out .of the robberies of houses and offices and stores, these dens and haunts of criminals will not be broken up„and tradesmen and others . pursue their business, year by year, liable not only to be robbed, but td be fleeced out of large sums as the price of compounding the felony with the robber, through ':the me dium of the detectives. Some months ago the store of Geo. W. Vo gel was robbed of a valuable stock of laces. It would be an interesting illustration of the whole detective system to publish a detailed account of the experiefices of that gentleman in the pursuit of his property and of the robber. Ile filtered a liberal reward, but he coupled it with the condition of the capture of the nal. Suffice it to say that the amount offered was considered inadequate to produce the gotids,Tind all his efforts have proved fruitless. A few days ago the store of Lesson & Co. was robbed of a large amount of goods. The pro prietors offered a large reward, and in forty- Oght hours the whole of the goods were returned by the pace, a check was given for the amount of the reward, and to this the detectives are said to be en titled. The two cases serve well to illus trate the system, and they ought to serve to attract enough public attention to our whole detective service to effect a total reorganiy.a- Lion of it. There will be no real rooting out of criminals, and no substantial protection of property, so long as the detective is allowed to begin his work with the question, What's to pay Examination of the private papers of the Emperor Napoleon,baS enabled the Provisional Government to demonstrate to the French people in what an outrageous manner they N 1 etc robbed by the Bonaparte family. It is shown that all orNapoleon's relations,even the most distant, all the multitude of military and civil personages who were the creatures and agents of the Empire, together with a number of individuals wh9.44ad'not even the clairn4if forded by such relationships and connections, received annually enormous sums of money from the public treasury. The civil list was nothing but a fund for supportinglll idleness a body of worthless men and women who bad not done and could not do any service for the people of France ; and it also supplied subsi dies to such journalists as t; assaignac, whose sole dutnivaB,to support the : iEmpire with sense lesg." and milid enthusiasm in his newspaper. Among the interesting disclosures is the fact that: the baptism of the Prince Imperial cost one Mini:lied and eighty thousand dollars. This was rather a heavy price for France td pay for hav- IT the Prince made an inheritor of the King- dom of Heaven; but the people will probabl be"slnislied if, even at this expense, at least one member of the Bonaparte. family is assured of 14, is to be feared, how ever;thacif the Prined inherits the qualities of leis pateAtnal,. ancestor,- the money has been wasted. ft has been said that the Provisional (;iii'Veninent, in examining and publishing the n•ivale papers of the late Emperor, has been guilty of indulging in an exhibition of con vlemptibly small malice ; but we think it is fair that the people of France should know in what wholesale fashion They haye been swindled by the villains who have misruled them for so inany yearsi'so that whatever allection remains. or the lionapartes may be destrOyed. We know from our nxperience in this country, 41,14 the most `' 'effective -- argument with the pebble is that which touches, their pockets. • It t tnpears that General Thomas was 'correct in'.saying that he never " lisped the name. of 0. if: Boyle," and never " uttered " the language imputed to him by Mrs. Boyle. Hut, in a repoft, of a speech of his, advertised at his experiiiii , the Mai• of last Saturday, the passage all,t6'd appears. 14 seems to have been an afterthought, deliberately introduced by the 41.eral after the speech was made, and when it was prepared for the'piess.

A determined, concerted movement on both banks of the Seine was made to ascer tain the strength of the Prissitws.

At Chevilly Trussians opened a terrific lire upon the French from behind earthenworks. to which the latter replied vigorously. The Mo biles behaved splendidly, and made several brilliant charges upon the Prtissian works, but were unable to capture the redoubts, though 'they inflicted heavy loss. A retreat was made in perfect ortier. The troops have been congratulated upon their admirable bearing.
