    THE CITY.
FOUTICAt ISI'IDELm.
tediin toy fleoire William Cnrtia.
Last evening Oonoert Hall was well filled by an
appreciate audience, assembled to listen to a left.
bore on Political Infidelity, by Mr. Geo. W. Ourtls,
0 f Harper's Weekly. This was the first appearance
of Mr. Curtis in this olty slnoe the attempt of sym
pathisers with Blavery to mob him, In 1880. The
torture, whioh was purely a political one, shows
how the times have changed In those four years.
Mr. Curtis said, in htt lecture, in those four years
we have lived fifty.
Mr. Oartlß was Introduced to the audlrace by Mr;
James Chambers. He began his lecture by saying
that the oloud ot darkness and doubt was being dls-
Srttocl; and hope, which- had been almost blasted
with delay, was now being gloriously reallted. But
It would be of no üb«, however successful our ef
forts. If we were false to our principles and guilty
of political infidelity. The speaker then related a
number Ol inttanoea wherein .the American people
had been political Infidels to the professed rights of
free speech and free press. A grand jury in Ala
bama indicted a publisher In New York, and sent a
raoulsttlon to that State lor him to have him tried
to Alabama for publishing a matter whioh they be
lleved to be to opposition to their interests. Phila
delphia had vindicated these rights upon one Oft
caston through its Chief Magistrate, who had
Mood up anf said, on a certain occasion when
a person got up to speak to the people, that
he wished 8 the man wdfald not speak, but If
he Insisted upon so doing the law would support
him. she name of Alexander Henry shall always be
remembered with respect. Onr present national
troubles and the civil war now upon us result not
from any radical defect In the organisation of our
Government or the faction of the demooratio prin
ciple, butlroin onr own unfaithfulness to onr pro
fessed principles. This was our political Infidelity.
The lecturer Bhowed this to be truß chiefly by citing
our LiStOrv in reJcrence to the security of •absolute
freedom of speech, which, he maintained, we hml
never insisted on or guaranteed In this country.
The right of frto epeeoh had been tamely surren
dered Tor forty years by politioians and people
to reference to slavery} henoe our humiliation
and onr difficulties. John O. Calhoun was the
original apostle of the arlstooratlc Idea to this coun
try, and the father of Secession. There are two
Americas as there are two England S—one democra
tic, the other arlstooratlo—contending for the mas
tery, and here now It has eome to the wager of blood
and bßttle between the two. Calhoun perceived
that tree discussion would be fatal to his schemes
and-the continuance of Southern slaveholding do
mination ! so he said, “ yon shall not debate the sia
- very Question.” Our great men, and the public ge
nerally, submissively accepted tblß Insolent dlota
tion, and we bowed down at the feet of tbe arfsco-
Static element. We have in this way given Eng
land good aanse for her mean opinion of us. Fo
relgnora were justified In assuming our weak
ness and pusillanimity when they saw us he
sitating and doubting at the beginning of this
rebellion whether the nation had a right to coerce
a rebellious State; in other-words, whether we had
a right to exist as a nation. Wo wore ourselves to
blame, lor we had been political infidels to our own
toltb. In tbe city of Now York, at a private meet
ing, held to December, 1881, one of the Representa
tives to Congress, not Fernando Wood, gravely prft
posed that the terms of the southern leaders should
he accepted to advance, whatever they might bej
and a rich merchant arose and said: “ Oh, gentle
men, what beautiful sentiments these are 1 let us all
be followers of the Prlnoe or Peace.” He owned
a line of packets to Savannah. Another mer
chant arose and said: “ The South owes me
a million, but I will gladly lose every cent to the
world to save tbat Union under which I have grown
rich ” 'that man came to this country from Scot
land without a cent In his poobet,and grow rich:
but those were not the sentiments of the majority of
the citizens of New York. If that olty had voted
on the Montgomery Constitution four ye,rs ago,lt
would have swallowed| It, bones and all, as a boa ,
constrictor swallows an ox. Calhounhad said: “I
will pnt this gag Into your mouths, and you shan’t
gay a word about slavery.” That was what
led this great 'North Into questioning Itself
on the policy It should pursue to regard to
the rebellion and the slavery question. Pub
lic opinion as to the right or the National Govern
ment to defend its own life was unsound, and it was
j»t to be wondered at that foreigners believed that
we bad grown so corrupt tbat ournational ruin was
a foregone oonotoslon. The South has been attempt
ing an impossible experiment. It has been trying to
establish an aristocracy that should govern a free
demooratio government. The North has also been
attempting an lmposslole experiment, to per
petuate human slavery to afreorepublic. We must
all be Dee and democratic or all aristocrats and
slaves. We have been guilty of political infidelity
in onr dealings with foreign nations. Our foreign
ministers met at Catena and plotted piracy and
plunder of a Power with whom wo were at peaoe.
The reward the American people gave the ohief
conspirator for the crime of the Os', end manifesto
was the position of President of the United States.
We should remember, wben we pour out ourjndlg
nation against our offending neighbors, that we
ourselves are not guiltless. They have been our
enemies throughout all this struggle. They hate
ns: but we owe them confession and ourselves re
pentance. This political infidelity still exists. The
fast political campaign showed this. A great party
attempted to surrender the Government into the
hands of those who seek Its overthrow, and Robert
C.-Wlnthrop, and others like him, stood up In the
olty of Naw York and charged lhe rebellion on the
defenders of free, speech and American liberty.
We have betrayed our own principles, and yet no
man can be an American without being of neoosslty
an Abolitionist, and no word Is more despised by the
majority of the American people than that. They
are lanatios j of course they are 1 So was Columbus
and Martin Luther, Shadrach, Meshaob, and
Abednego. Fanatics 1 what Is Sherman 1 Is Wall
street a fanatic 1 And it yet sends to a fanatic a
Christmas gift of $60,000, which win not be forgotten
as long as there Is a navy and a Mobile bay in Ame
rica. From this time forth we should have one aim
in view—to-achieve onr own liberty, and the
liberty of this nation. The two great fanatics
of this oountry are John C. Calhoun and John
Brown, and every man or woman to this ooun
try Is following after the one or the other. One
dies to bis bed, honored by his oountry and
wept by a nation. The other dies on the
gallows, and, tenderly lifting a child of the despised
race, beneath the winter’s sun sinks to his rest.
W.hoSe soul is marching on 1 It haß been fire fight
ing fire, and by God’s grace the fire of heaven is be
ing triumphant over the fire of hell. We seem to
have cur feet upon slavery. We don’t know what
It will he to-morrow. We must seise It by the throat
and drag it down, or it will drag down the nation.
We are unable to give the space to our columns
Hurt this leoture merits. The audience were delight
ed, and gave expression to their feelings by frequent
outbursts of applause.

caaesof the Western Saving Fund Society ▼«. The
7 Casey. 17fi and 185, decided after an interval ofjhree
veajrs. tiiat from th& trusts annexed to the Gad Works
themselves, that it ever could have been intended that
they were to come under the mnnclpal control and man*
atement or the city ,or that they are any partofit* po
lineal machinery. Indeed, if I understand these deci
sions, the very opposite Is affirmed, that the city is only
interested in their operations as a private owner* aaa
that she is a cestui qus trust like other private ownwre.
If this he the trae meaning of these decisions the de
partment 1 ’ of gas cannot apply to operating the works,
or interfering in their operations hut means something
else, if indeed any such department was, in fact, estab
lished by the ordinance of 1866. . ...

paitnents It docs not seem that the City Councils
ev**r provided by ordinance fur the advertisement
claimed heie; at least, I have not been able
to find any such ordinance, and this is some
evidence of their interpretation of the mean
ing of the act. Although it is_said_ to be a rule
in equity that want of certainty as to the law is no
reason tor withholding jtlief on an application fora
preliminary injunction, because a chancellor Is pre
sumed alwaysto have an opinionon the lawpl the case
presented; yet, notwithstanding this, an injunction is
an act of discretion or grace, and if it be uncertain
whether greater evils would ensue, from withholding
or granting it, no chancellor will grant it* lam strong
ly impressed that the Gas Works are not a department
in the technical sense of the act of 1856. and this is the
only sense in which the word is to he understood .m
this case. Without positively determining that now,
and for the reason sufgeafced, that I am not certain on
which side Che greatest evil would come to grant or re
fute the injunction, I must decline to grant it and await
the answer and pleadings. .
Ih&veno doubt but that thecityor any other loan
holder can, at any time, interfere to prevent abases in
the contract system, and that a chancellor would, if
favoritism resulting In injurj were show n, r®qujra ad*
vertisementsfor general supplies of coal. Hut the ap
plication here is hot sustained on that ground, for the
testimony preponderates io showing the proposed con
tract tohe a favorable one, and prudent at the present,
at least, Bor do 1 think any case remains of the alle
gation of complicity between one of the trustees and the
proposed contractor, to procure the contract to be im
nroDeriv made. It is dlbtmeily darned, and ie oth.Br
wi*5disproved. I also have great doubts about the
status of the complainants. They claim no interestor
equity, but as taxpayers. They are not loan-holders.
They have not shown how these taxes are to be in
creased, if tbe contract be consummated- There is a
possibility that at some time they might, be, but their
interest is both contingent and remote. I cannot dis
cu*s the bill, however, at this stage, for this reason,
nor do I refn&e the ir junction on this ground, but think
it worth being suggested to the complainants them
selves, in view of future proceedings. . Injunction re

Court of Quarter Sessions—Hon. Joseph
Allison.
But two eases wore tried in this court yesterday.
Xavier Frick was charged with having committed an
assault and battery, with intent to kill Cornelius Sira
line, and also with carrying concealed deadly weapons;
and Stialine was, in turn, charged by Frick with as
sault and battery. Being cross bills, and the facte being
the same, they were trifcd together. .....
Onbehall of SiraUne It was testified by himself that
on the day after election Frick, without any provoca
tion whatever, approached him in the ne ghborhood of
Eleventh and Oxford streets, and inflicted two blows
upon his person with the sharp edge of a hand-saw—one
upoS the head and the second upon the arm, the latter
causing a severe wound. Straliae also said that Frick
then drew a pistol and threatened to shoot him. Other
witnesses testified to the fact that, on the day in ques
tion, they had seen Frick wifch'a hand-saw and a pistol
in his possession, and one of them said that he heard
Prick Bay that fee had struck prosecutor with a eaw f
and it that would not do he would ehoot him.
Qnbehalf of Frick it was shown that on the previous
day, the day of election, Stralino and othors had a diffi
culty with Frick at the polls about political matters, that
they attacked and threatened to kill him, and that it
was only through the Interposition of parties present
that they were prevented from ieflietingnpon him great
personal violence at that time . It was also proven tnat
on the day of the alleged assault and battery Frick was
first attacked by StraUne and hi* friends, who threw
stones at and knocked him down, and tnai it was only
in self-defence, and when lie was in danger of receiving
great bodily barm that be used the saw and threatened
to use the pistol- Jury out G. Kemak for Straiine;

screams nf the girl. Zt is alleged that Mrs Reed
was in the habit of beating her most unmerci

broom* handle.' The back of this badly-treated girl
was scarred in a most terrible manner. Some of
her wouncs were not yet healed* She was dragged
about the room, punched, kicked, thumped, and her
flesh was made to quiver under the stroke of the cow
skin at early hours In the morning and at the deep.lone
hour of midnight. On Monday night, the atmosphere
being keenly cold, the little girl was stripped stark
asked and made go into the yard to wash some sloth
ing. She came very near freezing to death. To save
herself from death, the child, naked as she was, got out
of theyaid, and begged of a neighbor for * * pity sake to
take her in, that she was freezing. ”
The half-frozen create* e was admitted and wrapped
in a Bbawl. Yesterday morning word waisentto the
'Guardians of the Poor of tbe circumstances of the case,
and the arrect of Mrs Reed was ordtred.
Tbe police officers and neighbors testified as to the
above facts. The defendant was required to enter bail
in the sum of $BOO to answer at court, bhe sent for a

sources: ■ 1
Ist. Beingflftyper cent, heavier than the common
Chimney, they may be handled with much less care.
2d- The oval shape is an adaptation to. the flat dame,
the Chimney being at ail points the same distance from.,

conductor of heat; and, practically, it is found that the

the obstacle in the way of the universal use of Carbon
Oil, found in the unreasonable expense for Chimneys,
has been met and removed by the infrod action of

The popularity of there Chimneys has inducedjome
