THE NORTHERN PAoRiC-We chronicle in our
columns this morning the arrival in this city OF the
Northern Pacific Railroad exploring expedition and
the names Of the gentle mel comp )sing It, together
with an outline OF its plans and purposes The
people OF this region will see, I'm the exploration
about to be made, what may be regarded without
much stretch OF the Imagination the practical
commencement OF the Northern Pacific road. The
parties who have the enterprise in hand simply
desire to confirm the favorable impression which
already exists relative to the advantages OF the
Northern line and the character Of the country
through which it passes, previous TO actually break
ing ground and those who know anything of the
route they ore to pursue canlot doubt what the
verdict will be. That 1t will be favorable we Min
nesotians, who have so long and earnestly studied
this enterprise and assured ourselves OF the tangible
Inducements it Offers feel morally certain; aud If 1t
is, we are assured by the prominent members OF the
expedition, work will be Immediately begun and the
road pushed through to completion as rapidly as
possible. Since money will not be wanting, and
since the face OF the country is more favorable to
rapid construction than along the line Of the already
completed Pacific road, we may perhaps see ecpsed
even the wonderful achievements of the Union and
Central Companies. We have often written up
the importance to this section OF the Northern Pacific
road, that our readers can readily appreciate the
great benefits that must flow 20 from its cOnstruc
tion. The mere announcement OF its certain under
taking will arouse all the activities of people,
and determine to this region emigration and capital
beyond everything heretofore Witnessed We shall
watch the progress of this expedition with intense
interest-Fron the 50. Paul (bfinnssotd) Pioneer.

PASSAGE OF THE IRISH CHURCH
BILL

Typ irish Church bill passed the House on
Tords Yesterday after an exciting debate, but
.t.orod and amended to such degree that
tho Commons will scarcely be able to recog-
,iso n when it returns to them. 1t is un-
doubtedly the fact that majority OF the
Lords we're opposed to the bill in any shape;
and Earl Derby yesterday said that he OBJ
ieoted to it in toto on principle, but In view
os the nopular feeling that had been aroused,
he did not think it expedient to carry his op-
postion further than to vote against 1t. After
the bill passed, however, he entered written
protest, which will, of course, be received by
the friends of the measure for what 1t IS
worth The English are particularly fond of
sneerinp at the disorder and rowdyism
that are supposed to be the common
characteristics of the American Congress, and
particularly of the House of Representatives.
The correspondents who have described the
scenes in the House of Lords during the de-
bate on this bill have given us some grains
of comfort in this respect. We certainly have
frequent cause to be ashamed of our repre-
sentatives, but it is no little satisfaction to
know that the British House of Lords, which
claims to be the highest, most dignifed, most
polished and courtly deliberative body in
the world, is not only no better, buta little
bit worse. Hooting, yelling, groaning, hiss
ing, cheering, and similar performances ap-
pear to have characterized the progress of the
debate; and we are told that one church dig
nitary distinguished himself by engaging in
such manifestations even while sitting upon
the steps of that object of all reverence, the
throne itself. The House of Representatives
it has its peer in demagogism and black
guardism.
AS for the Irish Church bill, it is certain
that the Lords will yet be obliged to pass it
substantially as it first came from the Com
mons. In a long speech at the Lord Mayors
banquet on the Both ultimo, Mr.. Gladstone
explained the position of his Government in
diplomatic and courteous but sufficiently
plain and decided language. He believed
that the bill as it was originally presented
represented the wishes of the country, and
accomplished the desired object in a fair and
equitable manner. Being confident of the
support of the nation at large, he would
resist any tampering with the material fea-
lures of the bill, but would cheerfully con-
slider all amendments, and without opposi-
tion consent to such as appeared Just ard
right If the Ministry take this stand, they
will certainly accomplish their object, and
the House of Lords will be obliged to go
through the agony of considering the bill a
second time, and receding as gracefully as
they can from their present awkward position.

GIRARD COLLEGE

The report of the Board of Directors of the
Girard College for Orphans, for the year 1868,
with the accompanying report submitted to
the Board of Directors by the President, Pro-
fessor Allen, furnish interesting information
in regard to the position, wants, and workings
of that institution. Whether it remains under
its present control, or is subjected to the
supervision of the proposed Board of City
Trusts, the public is equally interested in its
effective management, and equally ready to
sustain all wise efforts to further the benevo-
lent objects of the founder of this noble
charity.
In spite of the immense sum spent in the
construction of the college edifices, and the
various causes which have diminished the
productiyeness of the estate, much substan-
tial good has already been accomplished and
five hundred and twenty destitute orphans
are housed, fed, clothed, and educated out of
the proceeds of the college fund. The cur
rent expense for this service last year was
a few hundred dollars less than the annual
appropriation of $685. $50, or about 1870 per
annum for each orphan, more than one-half
of this amount being embraced in the two
items of clothing and subsistence. This cost
is perhaps not more than it should
be during the prevalence of the existing
high prices; but as prices fall, means
should certainly be devised, partly through
the diminished cost of maintenance, and
partly through the increased productiveness
of the estate, for enabling much largernum
Der of orphans to enjoy the benefits of
Girard's bequest. In the proposed reforms
this primary object should never be ignored
AT this moment there are many thousands of
children in Philadelphia who never attend
school, and large proportion of them are
vagrant orphans. While the college receives
but eighty new wards annually, as at present,
there must continue to be fearful dispropor-
ton between the number of destitute young
orphans in Philadelphia and the re-
cipients of Girard's bounty. 1t is
a sheer impossibility to provide for
all the claimants to assistance, but it is by no
means impossible to administer the estate and
the college in manner than will do infinitely
more than has ever been done heretofore to
diminish the number of stray waits upon our
streets. This end is more important than inn
proved systems of instruction, or fine buud-
ings, or grand displays. One of the great
problems of the day is, What is to be done
for and with the immense army of ganajns
who are growing up in ignorance and idle
ness, in the midst Of a thousand temptations

BLAIR.

Mr.. FRANK P. BLAIR, Jr., would not take our
the throne of Spain, and the consequence is
that he has been making fool of himself
again over his cups, and then stultifying him
self still further by writing letter about it.
At the reunion of the Society of the Army
and Navy of the Gulf, at Long Branch, re-
Gently, he indulged in a general glorifcation
Of Lee, Stonewall Jackson and other Rebels, so
that Admiral Farragut, who presided, had to
call him to order. In reply to the structures
made upon his conduct, Blair wrote an ex-
planatory letter to the New York World, in
others like it were ''being used as
radical stalking horses" and INDUCED
in ungentlemanly illusions to
General Benjamin f. Butler and others who
did not harmonic with the school of politics
to which Blair had affiliated himself In
reply to this effusion of the late candidate of
the Democracy for the Vice-Presidency, the
Secretary of the society, Mr.. Granville p
Hawes, has written letter which admins
ters an effectual quietus. He calls atten-
tion to the fact that by the rules of the asso-
claIlon inc ulScusSlon Vi PohIlcSlS pronlDlCeu,
and that no man connected with it ever
has held an Office, or ever expects to hold
one, and that it was under these rules that
Blair was called to order. Mr.. Hawes thinks
that Blair made sad mistake in not allowing
the most charitable view to be taken of
his conduct and he appeals to
him to recall his classical learning. and
remember that Philip, King of Macedon,
who in his most desperate condition was
sagacious enough to be aware of his two-fold
character, had allowed an appeal from one to
the other. Mr.. Hawes, on behalf of the So
ciety, wishes it to be definitely understood
that it can never be made use of by any poll
tician, whatever his character or antecedepts

| and while the Girard bequest cannot fully
solve this problem for Philadelphia, it can,
under proper management, be made to do
much, incidentally, to assist its solution.
One of the difficulties at the college now
is to find persons willing to accept the orphans
as indentured apprentices, and this difficulty
is increased by law which forbids the direc-
tors from accepting applications which are
made by persons residing in other states
New jersey Maryland, and Delaware have
been comparatively slow in following the ex-
ample of Pennsylvania in abrogating the old
apprenticeship system, and there are frequent
applications from these States for indentured
apprentices, while the number from Pennsyl-
vania is very small. We agree with the direc-
tors that the prohibition seems to be unne-
cessary and unwise," and it should be re-
pealed by the Legislature The question has
become an important one, and the directors
should be relieved from the dilemma in which
they are placed by the conflict of the directions
of the will with the prevailing customs of the
Commonwealth.
In regard to the system of instruction, Pro-
fessor Allen makes many important sugges-
tions which he thus summarizes:-
are briefly as fOllOws:-
"Less reciting and more teaching.
"Less dependence on textbooks and more on
intellect
'The introduction of pictorial and graphical illus
trations whenever they can be used.
"Object teaching so far as specimens from nature
and art can be obtained.
"The addition of department of natural history
to our course of instruction.
''Such alterations in the order in which the
branches of study succeed each other in the course
as viii conform more closely to the age and capacity
of the pupils"
He discusses the whole subject in q mas
terly manner; and it is unfortunate that, while
Girard has done SO much for the mass of the
orphans, means should not be devised for
giving the specially bright intellects developed
among them an opportunity to acquire COM
plete and finished education. We sympathize,
too, with the regret of Professor Allen that
the sciences shave been ignored in Girard
College for twenty years" and that it has ''no
collection of the fora of our own State, no
museum of geological specimens, nor a
cabinet of minerals worthy of the name." 1t
is desirable that this deficiency should be sup
piled by private donation, if the funds of the
estate cannot be properly applied to this pur-
pose, and that the education of the orphans
should be rendered as complete and useful as
possible. But meanwhile the necessity of
providing for the accommodation of more
orphans should never be for an instant for
gotten, and it should be leading considera-
ton in all matters connected with the college.
Let ''the greatest good of the greatest num-
Der" be kept steadily in view

THE MERCANTILE LIBRARY.


The new Mercantile Library building will be
opened tomorrow, and Philadelphia will then
have what has long been needed a first-cass
popular library. The old Franklin Market
building has been altered into magnificent
library and reading-room that presents COM
bination of advantages not possessed by any
other institution of the kind in the country,
if in the world The fact of it's being open
in the evening, and having a pleasant and
cheerful room in which to sit and read
together with a full supply of all the foreign
and domestic periodicals, will always
make the Mercantile more popular as
place of resort than the Philadelphia
in spite of the very superior
collection of books possessed by the latter 1t
would be very desirable thing if we could
have in this city great free library like that
of Boston; but until we can have that, we
may well be satisfied with the elegant accom-
modations of the Mercantile as the next best
thing. In the new building there are ample
accommodations, which will be appreciated
by those who have been annoyed by the over
crowded condition of the old quarters; and as
it is understood that the managers propose to
enlarge their field of operations, and make
important additions to their collection, this
institution will undoubtedly enter upon a
new career of prosperity, and be more cor
daily than ever supported by the citizens of
Philadelphia.
