WESTWARD HO

THE ordinance that passed Common Council at
its last meeting to sell piece of ground to the
University, will soon come up for final action in
Select Council. In the meantime it is for the
public to learn the facts of the case, and follow
the action of the authorities. The city owns two
hundred acres, the Blockley farm, in the best
part of West Philadelphia. The University
grown far beyond its narrow limits in Ninth
street, offers to buy about tenth part The only
question is as to the price. Some of the best an
thorities on this subject have given their
opinion that the sale is good one for the
city. OF course, in this view enters, as an
important element, the good done in securing
TO the city, as a neghbor to its other property
the University, with its new buildings, and the
general benefit in helping to enlarge the oppor-
tunities of the University for greater activity,
Now, there are always men in opposition, and
there are some who say this property can be
sold at higher price. No doubt there is some
truth in this: if the property were cut up in
building lots, and sold in fronts on streets and
alleys, it would no doubt fetch more. But would
not fine open place. improved by a noble pile
of collegiate buildings be the most lasting i'm
proyement, and the greatest inducement to other
corporations seeking permanent lodgment, and
home safe from the intrusion of trade and
manufactures?
1t is hard, perhaps In the consideration of
such a question as this, to lay aside the dreams
of a possible future academical grove in the
AlmshOuse fields but is there no immediate,
Practical good also to be gained The ground
on Ninth street now occupied by the Univer-
iW, once set free, would soon be improved and
lay taxes to the city on at least one or two mil
lions. The University itself is already source
of income to the city in the large number of
studnts attending its Medical School. Extend
the nme privileges to the college, the Law
School the Scientific Department, and multiply
by three the dollars and cents brought into
the POCKETS of our ctizens-what is to prevent
q continual increase? But, after all, the real

THE PUBLIC FOUNTAINS.

The Fountain Society have commenced theii
good work by erecting several plain but sub
stantial structures in the heart of the CITY, and
If any person wishes to obtain some idea of the
Dement'S to be conferred he has only to station
| himself for half an hour some warm day al
Filth and Chestnut or Seventh and Walnut, and
note how many persons stop and drink. The
fountains already erected have been subjected to
much adverse criticism, some of which is un-
doubtedly deserved but the work which the
society has undertaken to perform is so impor-
tant, that the largest charity should be extended
to its aesthetic sins of omission and commission.
We want, first of all, plenty of fountains in all
parts of the city, and if the means in hand for
providing them are limited, it is decidedly pre-
terable that the ornamental should give way to
useful, for time at least, although we hope that
the day is not far distant when we will have
fountains of really artistic design, that will be
grateful to the eye as well as substantially bene-
fetal to thirsty travellers, biped and quadruped
during the hot summer weather. The fountains
already erected are plain, it is true but there is
nothing offensive to good taste in the structures
themselves. They will answer our present pur-
poses admirably, and until the rough work
of the society is performed; they are
entitled to respectful consideration from
those who desire something more
ornamental. The terra-cotta vase on the Chestnut
street fountain and in less degree, the gilt
eagle on the one in Walnut street, are unneces-
sary and ugly additions, which may fairly be
condemned. The vase, we are glad to see, has
been removed, and we hope that the eagle will
not be long in following it. These articles must
have cost something, and the money could have
been expended to much more advantage in erect
ing different fountains. The terra-cotta vase
was not only out of keeping, but, with excessive
bad taste, it was covered with a coat of paint.
which made its last state worse than its first.
May we see it no more. This eyesore however,
suggeststhe sutablcncss of erra-cotta for fountain
purposes. Very elegant fountains might be made
of this material for much less price than granite
or other stone, which would be equally substan-
tial and serviceable, and it is worthy of the con-
sderation of the society whether one or two
fountains might not be made of it by way of
experiment, at least. Tcrra-cotta is susceptible
of any amount of elaboration, and if care is only
taken to procure good designs, and to avoid
paint as an abominatiOn of the first order our
cold-water philanthropists can combine the
Nh(e with the dulCe in the most effectuoI
manner.

matter TO impress on Councilmen and on citi-
zens is the necessity of doing something for
higher education here. For hundred years the
University has gone on, bringing money honor,
and credit for the city and doing its work
quietly and unobtrusively.
Now the city is asked to deal with il on fair
terms, giving it the benefit of a reputation that
ought to be dear to the local authorities as 1t
is to the graduates, and doing itself honor and
credit, not by lavish gift, but by generous
treatment, just such rs great municipal corpo-
ration can and ought always to give to the lesser
bodies within its limits. The passage of the
ordinance now before Select Council will be the
beginning of a new tie between the city and the
University, likely to grow with their growth;
and anything that will make mutual interests
support one another will be good for both. The
University can do the city honor and credit,
while the city may well be proud of fostering
and forwarding the interests of an institution
which has for century done its share in making
and perpctuating the fame of Philadelphia for
literary and scientific attainments

A CASE OF WOMEY,S RIGHTS


YESTERDAY rather remarkable case was tried
in the Court of Quarter Sessions. in which the
rights and responsibilities of women under the
common law were illustrated in particularly
torcible manner, and the practical common sense
OF the average modern jury was very clearly
demonstrated. man md his wife were CAUGHT
in the very act of shop-lifting, and when they
were arrested ''lift" skirt, such as is usuallv
worn by professional shop-lfters, was found
upon the woman. The evidences of guilt were
plain and unmistakable, and it would seem that
there ought to have been no possible difficulty
IN procuring the prompt conviction of the
guilty parties. The counsel for the defense
however, put in the extraordinary plea that. as
the woman was married, she was supposed by
the law to be acting under the coercion of her
husband, and was consequently entitled to an
acqmttal. This plea was admitted by the Court
ana kthe Judge charged the jury, stating that
the wife was entitled to plead the presumption
OF the law, and that it was for the Common
wealth to show that she was acting independently
of the husbands coercion.
The jury appears to have hovered some time
between law and common sense, and. after an
hours consideration of the subject thew came
into Court, stating that they stood eleven to one
and asking for further instructions. The resuIt
of second consultation was a verdict of ouiltv
for both parties. The jury are entitled to CON
siderable credit in this matter, but neither the
Judge nor counsel can be blamed The law il n
relic offeudal barbarism, and when its absurditv
Is demonstrated as clearly as it was in this in
stance, the result ought to be a speedy reform.
This is decidedly case for the attention of
the womcn's rightists, it is clearly opposed to
all their NEST cherished principles that the law
should permit woman to commit crimes under
the supposed coercion of her husband; and we
commend the matter to the careful considera-
uon OF the editress of The Revolution. It il
uiliieut' however, to tell what course Mrs. STAN
'on' MISS Anthony, and their colaborers will
"uop'' as they at times appear to be working
no' oniy ior the emancipation of the sex femi-
nine, out lor their total release from all respon-
slolll'les' In somewhat notorious case Mrs
stanton strenuously insisted on the entire ipro-
cence OF condemned woman, even after she
mad made a full confession of her crime. ond
there is no telling but that she might snstair tha
female criminal in this instance and conaiSaU
her victim of masculine barbaritv

Timidity of Pastors.

A year since two friends of a pastor were
discussing the liberality of his people in
providing for his comfort. "Why is it,"
said one, "that they are so much more gen.
erous toward their pastor than other church
es, in proportion to their means 2" "Be-
cause" said the other, she has schooled
them to such liberality toward the various
benevolent causes of the day that they have
come to apply the same scale of giving to
himself and family" The answer was cor
rect, and the principle is one of universal
application. Another pastor, at a meeting
of the Presbytery held in his own church,
and with many of his people present, gave
a timid apology for having neglected an i'm
portant collection in which other churches
had joined. His people were indignant.
"It is not true" said the leading men after
the meeting; it is not true that the money
could not have been raised. Our pastor
knows that he had but to ask for it, and it
would have been cheerfully contributed
We never knew of this matter, and are
ashamed that such an impression of us should
60 abroad" The principle here involved is
also of universal application. Will it not
be found true that one of the greatest obsta.
cles to the benefcence of the churches is the
timidity of the pastors Ministers are
afraid to ask them to give.
