Mr.. Van Wyck of the House has done the
country a service in exposing the Gettysburg
Asylum Lottery swinde, in which farm worth
$4,000 is advertised as worth 100000, and some
nearly worthless property of a New-York to-
bacconist was advertised as diamonds worth
100000, and these, with other traps and mis-
cellaneOus plumber, and old junk, were made
the basis of a lottery for the pretended benefit
of the soldiers. Lotteries of any kind are per-
nicious Lotteries conceived in fraud and mis-
representation are little better than larceny.
And fraudulent lotteries for charitable and
patriotic purposes is stealing the livery of the
devil to serve heaven in, which is rather a
worse oflense than its opposite Beware of all
such lottery swindles got up in the name OF
humanity.

Louis Napoleon for the present goes hand
finland with the Clerical party. A new dis
patch has been sent to Florence in regard to
the claims of Italy on Rome, which is identical
in sense with NJ. Rouhers speech. The hold
ing of Conference under such circumstances,
says The London Times, would be a mockery,
aud we believe that Prussia aud Russia will bc
of the same opinion.

herd goes UP into the flies with smile OF bliss,

The robbery in Wall-st. yesterday is a good
illustration of the carlessness ruling the opera
tons of our principal banks. A young man Is
sent to the clearing house on foot with nearly
S6,OOO000, instead of being placed in carriage
or guarded by q cOmrade, as he should have
been. The successful thieves had undoubtedly
logged him for days, and were fully aware OF
the valuable burden intrusted to his
charge. Fortunately the bulk of the
haul was in bank checks, payment of which
has been stopped, but it would have been a
proper lesson for the President of the bank in
question if the thieves had secured the whole
amount in greenbacks or gold certificates. The
city is full of keen-scented sharpers, and the
practice of sending bank messengers to bank
ing-houses and the Clearing House with MIL
lions of money, tucked away in a black bag
as if it were bundle of dirty clothes, does
not tend to diminish daring street robberles.

excellent basis on which we can estimate the
relative number Of those who pay taxes, for,
as a rule, the children and women do not
enter so largely into the calculation as 10 Affect
an estimate based ON the votes. Philadelphia
polled at the late election, an average, 100000
votes. At that rate, the tax per vote would
amount TO exactly SIS 90. In New York city at
the last election l12 600 votes were poled, or an
average Of $l51 "a to each voter. This average
is based on the fairest means Of comparison
we have at hand, and, we think, the fairest
that can be possibly secured. BY it It will be
seen that in New York each man is taxed erdcHg
t'cice as much in proportion to support the city
government as he is in PHILADELPHIA.
We do not think that the number of persons
taxed is fair ground on which to estimate
the weight of the public burdens. Had We
commenced the comparison, we would have
taken the amount Of property, not the number
of citizens. But it was commenced by Mr..
Hoffman. He selected the population as the
basis Of comparison, and we have only followed
his path. We suppose, also, that he took the
element which would make his administration
appear in the most favorable light. We
infer that, had property been taken, our ad-
vantages would have been still more apparent.
In truth, the attempt made by Mr.. Hoffman
is a failure. It may not be due to his admin
istratiOn. We do not believe that Mr.. Wood
would spend one cent less, but we think we can
look with just party pride on the comparative
economy Of Philadelphia under Republican
rule. Yet New York, with her average of
twice as heavy taxes, does not afford half as
much security to her citizens as does the
Quaker City. We are well governed, in that
We are not over-governed. We do not, in
deed, see policeman at every corner, yet we
hear but seldom of disturbances, or crimes
which go unpunished. We speak entirely in
a comparative sense; but viewed in that light,
we ought to be daily thankful that we have
the Republican party, aud not the Democratic,
TO rule over US. We may be unjust, but we
| judge only by comparison. We see in New
| York double expenses and less safety and
there the rule is Demooratic-here Republican
We may impute the result to the wrong
cause, but all must grant the coincidence
warrants our inference.

he failed TO perform would subject him to i'm
peachment. To talk OF concession Is 70 misuse
words. Besides, the idea Of the Executive
sitting in judgment on the aots of two-thirds
Of the representatives Of the people, and de-
Gliding whether they are in 'error," is an alb
surdity. Is a judicial as well as an executive
power vested in the President By what right
does the Executive decide on the legality of a
lawf Is he the Supreme CourtH While
accusing Congress of passing over IFS just
limits Of power, does he not overreaoh his
owni physician, heal thyselfr'
But we pass over the reconstruction portion
of the Message, and with it we almost close
review of the document. The finances are not
considered with any depth. An attack is made
on the legal-tender notes and national bank
notes, which, In our opinion, is unwsrrauted,
as no adequate remedy for the evil is proposed.
Again, the demagogue is apparent when he
opposes the payment of the interest of the
gold-bearing bonds in gold, or rather he gloats
over the injustice supposed to be done to
others by our following the clear terms Of our
contract. This is, TO our minds, little farther
than any have gone yet. Either specie
basis must be at once resumed-an ultimatum
impossible at presenter else the payment of
interest in gold is unjust to the people. Again
Brutus panders to the worst passions of the
lowest classes. Yet no remedy is proposed.
He seeks to inhame the passions, but does not
desire to assuage them by a reform.
That part of the Message which refers to the
corruption in the internal revenue-it is but a
paragraph of few lines-meets our heartiest
approval.
A short compilation of the Department re-
ports, line on the Paris Exhibition, another
line on the Alabama claims, and statement
that the Government has entered into treaty
with Denmark for the purchase of the island
of st. Thomas, closes the Message. Taken alto
gether, it affords a singular proof of how the
highest Office cannot elevate its occupant, and
how the mind, after flowing in one channel for
years, will at length refuse to entertain new
ideas, but run on forever in its established
route. The Message will give but little salts
faction to any but the few personal admirers
| of the President.
