CITY ITEMS.
Dr. E. H. Chapin at Concert Hall Last
072,539 40
Last evening concluded one of the most successful
courses of public lectures ever given in Philadelphia.
Nine years have elapsed since an organization, com
posed of a few prominent gentlemen In this city, who
felt the need of cultivating a popular taste for lec
tures of real literary merit, was formed, and appealed to
oar 01117055 for support. This, to their credit, has
been generously accorded from that day to this. Not
that any vast RUMS have been realized by thlsfateeo39 s tte
some erroneously imagine, On the contrary, several of
the courses—not excepting, we believe, the present,
Is hich has been singularly popular—have done little mere
than pay expenses. This is owing to the commendable
liberality with whirls the People's Literary Institute—
the organization hero referred to—get up their pro
grammes, the total expense incurred for a single Course,
for bell, lecture fees, posters, miscellaneous printing, ad
vertising, et cetera, amounting to little loss than two
thousand dollars,
5373,919 18

Iliad the object been money, it le a fair inference that
the People's Literary Institute, annual lectures, like nu
merous other enterprises which their success has provoked,
ould have tailed, and been given up long ago. There
were circumstances which gave to the course, which
clrsed last evening at Conceit Mill, a peculiar interest.
The previous series had met with some little disturb
ance, and even official interference, and the public were
anxious to see what the new state of things now existing
In our country would bring forth on the lecture board.
The result has been already chronicled. Many of the
sense neon who figured In former sinuses, and were no.
sparingly denounced for uttering the same sentiments
which are new greeted with almost universal applause,
have appeared end been enthusiastically received this
season. The same change, in fast, which has thrown
open the Snsitheonlan Listitute at Washington to (the
formerly contraband ultraists in that quarter) Greeley,
Phillips, Cheever, and Beecher, has been 'witnessed In
enutervative Philadelphia, and throughout the whole
loyal north.

Dr. Chapin's lecture, last evening, had for its subject,
t•Tris PEOPLE." Mr. J. W. White, Secretary of the
"Institute," (whose happy, off-band speeches have on
several occasions this season covered him with credit,
and bee❑'of signal service to their organization,) in intro
ducing the lecturer, referred to the incidents of the pre
sent course, and acknowledged the obligations under
which they had been placed by the audience by their
generous support. Re also congratulated his hearers,
rather facetiously, we must admit, that, "resisting the
temptations of notoriety, they had avoided political
el
troiets and heretici3, and brought forward none but con
servative, orthodox men !" [Great laughter and ap
plause.]
Mr. NV hito also stated that the lecture recently given
In that ho3l,by Bayard Taylor, Esl., for the benefit of
the two Volunteer Refreshment Saloons in this city, had
netted the sum of 3243.75 for three establishments, which
bad been duly appropriated.
" Make way t make way for the representatives of the
people I" once cried a pompous official In moldrig Ids
way through a crowd. "Make way yourself for me aro
the people themselves," responded the crowd." This
was the anecdote with Which the lecturer opened ;
boo over, that had those respondents been called upon
on the spot for the proof they might have been puzzled
fora reply.
"The people" was, he said, one of the commonest
phrases, but very imperfectly malersteml. As a palpa
ble, fungible/act, such a thing as the people he assumed
nught not exist a proposition which the lecturer pro
ceeded to illuminate with a degree of subtle philosophy,
which was hardly appreciated by every moo, women,
and child who beard hint. Re did, however, employ a
number of comic expressions, and "aide hits," sufficient
to punctuate his remarks with laughter, and so formed
no unacceptable introduction to the good things which
w ere to follow.
lie then proceeded to considerthe people" In their
IVO and practice, under these three heads: First, the
people as a ammo of power; second, as a tribunal of
Judgment, and third, as a sovereignty of the future.
The pincer of the people came out, ho said, in what .wo
tell national character. The leading minds of a nation
weze, therefore, never more than the adequate measure
of its power.
When a nation was struck with come common danger
then it was that the germs of greatness wen, multiplied
and suddenly developed. In illustrating the imperislza.
tic character of a nation so bug ao it remains sound at
the core, Dr. Chapin summoned to his aid a Succession of
characteristic and original, and we may say, startling
figures of speech, which evidently struck the heart of his
audience, and were received with a perfect storm of ap
plause.

Ito neat considered to what extent "the people"
might be regarded as a tribunal of judgment. This
NS as first reviewed in Its relation to literature. Tho lec
turer held that the statistics of any ono of our popular
Lee libraries would show that the reading of the masses
compares favorably in character with that of the more
select classes. The Bible was most read by the
_people, and that not merely because it was the
erntodiment of the Christian's faith, but because with
in sacred pages there was the richest and grand
est repository* of Met ature and wisdom The motto
too sepal{ vox Da was not always true, though son—e
times it was true that the voice of the people Is the voice
of Cod. Some very humorous illustrations were cited by
the lecturer under this head, among which, his alltision
to what has been said about King Cotton created con
siderable hiughter.

It was a mistake to infer that truth was always, or ovon
ever first revealed to great messes of people. As the rays
of the morning first touched some lonely, Isolated peak,
so truth the touched some solitary mind, from which it
permeated others, and finally won its way away down into
the hearts of many. Truth was not to be found in the
nose of the enthusiastic multitude. To hoar Its voice,
it nee necessary to place the ear low down and keep
very btlll, and then in all things the pulsations of truth
might be detected.
Finally, the people were con ddered as "a sovereignty
of the future." In this divhiou a coMparlson was drawn
between the present and past ages. It was true that the
almost universal diffusion of knowledge had tended
somewhat to produce a degree of superficiality, but he
saw no cause for regret In this. Thwas surely bettor to
have the masses tolerably Informed than to bare a few
very learned mon, and all the rest ignorant. Ile did not
approve of ono man having his bread HO thickly buttered
that all the rest It ore obliged to go without. Ho would
rather eee every men's bread buttered, if even it was
thinly spread. (Laughter.)
His conclusion was devoted to the developing expo
'grime through which our country is now passing. With
regard to us as a nation, the language of another was
gutted, that Asia wee the continent of germs, Europe
the continent of diffusion, while, America was the
continent of results, whore the harvest of the
ages was yet to be reaped. To all mankind had
gone forth the decree Of God, "say to the people
that they go forward!" This the Apiaries,' people
were doing in a majesty which without the perils of this
war they could never have known. Ills closing tribute
to the flag, and the future which awaits it, In the
hands of the loyal, brave mon, who have so gallantly
gone forth to defend it, was a more sublime flight of ora
tory than pen can depict: At the class of the lecture,
the audience, which was one of the largest of the season,
signified their approval of it with prolonged and hearty
applause.
A GREAT CHANCE FOR TILE LAD/Es TO PRO
num; IiaIIOAINB.—WO Invite attention to the attractive
announcement of Mr. John A, Mullen, In another cements
of our paper to-day. The remnants of the immense
Clock of White Goods, LitCPS, and Embroideries, of the
firm of Price, Perris, Co , aro now offered by Mr. Mul
len, at the store No. 2024 Chestnut street, at an immense
Fact Ifice, and will be throughout the whole of this week,
and during this week wily. The groat bargains which
ibis house has been giving to the pabllc for some months
past here made the name of Price, Ferris, b Co., a Popu
lar household word, in almost every fannly where goods
of the class they sell are used. The large additional re
dnetions now made for the „wennl week will, doubtless,
fill their store to overflowing with customers from this
time until the closing day, Saturday, the 18th instant.
We may state, in conclusion, that, immense as have boon
their sales, their stock' atill embraces an elegant assort

their advertisement.

A REAL BLANKET AT LAST!—Among the
incidents at the White House on New Year's day, was
the presentation of an Indian blanket to Mrs. Lincoln
by Major Arny, the 11. S. Indian Agent for the Territory
of New blexico. The article, which was made of Wool,
xcited the greatest astonishment lemons the.,militarY
officers present, nearly all of whom asserted that it was
the only woollen blanket seen by them since the com
mencement of the Ivan The Secretary of War line or
dered a pair exactly similar to it, to order that it may not
hmeafter be said that there nover were any woollen blan
kets In the army of the Union. For this timely nod
Praiseworthy act the Secretary ought to be promoted
