THE FINE ARTS.
Art Exhibiiions.


correspondent OF the Germantown Telegraph
makes the extraordinary statement that "for some
time past the little faction OF admirers friends, and
partisans OF the artist Edward Moran has been at
tacking the directors OF the Academy OF Fine Arts,
through the columns OF THE EVENING TELEGRAPH
and the Bulletin for not having a regular spring ex
hibition" The Bulletin, presume, is able TO take
care OF ITSELF but so far as this paper is concerned
we have only to say that there is not one word OF
truth in the above allegation. Neither Mr.. Moran,
his friends, admirers, nor partisans have ever had
any infaence whatever in shaping the criticisms OF
THE EVENING TELEGRAPH on questions OF art. This
is not the rst time that this charge has either been
expressly made or covertly insinuated, and 1t is
based entirely upon the two facts that
Mr.. Moran has quarrel with the Academy,
and that have criticised with some severity the
policy and performances OF that institution. We
say now, as we have said repeatedly before that
Mr. Moran did very foolish action when he cut his
pictures out OF their frames a few seasons age be-
cause they not hung to suit him. But this deed
however unfavorabe may be the position in which
it placed the artist personally, had at least
one good effect, inasmuch as 1t brought long stand
ing quarrel between the Academy and the artists
a climax and demonstrated to the public in the
plainest possible manner what one OF the main
grievances OF the artists really was So far as Mr..
Moran and his pictures are concerned, We deal with
HIM as we do with everybody else fairly and Impair

deserves nor refraining from censure when censure
is merited, and nothing that has ever appeared in
our columns can be produced to prove the con-
trary.

tors OF the Academy of Fine Arts we are willing to

THE FRENCH ELECTION.

The old proverb that "Paris is France" has an
especially disastrous significance for Napo-
leon at this moment. His huge majority in
the provinces affords but partial recon-
pense for the unpopularity of his projects
and his dynasty in the great metropolis which
has wrought so many radical political changes
without waiting or caring for the decision of
the provincial districts. The riots which have
followed the announcement of the vote show
that it has had mighty influence in embold-
ening the uncompromising enemies of Napo-
leonic rule. They would not have risked
their lives in fomenting conspiracies and in
erecting and stubbornly defending barricades
if they had not been buoyed up by a strong
hope that their Partisan majority would sus-
tain any successful revolution, and that a
Partisan movement would ensure the
endorsement of France. The police and the
soldiers may repress the demonstration, but
it proves so clearly that force rather than
public sentiment and popular approval main
tain the existing throne at the very centre of
French power, that Napoleon has little cause
to congratulate himself upon the result of
his last experiment. His moral position
would have been infinitely stronger if he had
gained an accession of one hundred thousand
votes in Paris by loss of million votes in
the provinces If he fails to conciliate the
populace Immediately surrounding his palace.
all his successes in other quarters will scarcely
secure the perpetuation of his dynasty.

THE WHITE MANS PARTY IN DELA-
W1RE

THERE is still some hope for the "White
Mans party" in Delaware, for, notwithstand-
ing the grand fzzle of a few days ago,
Salisbury and his friends are doing their
level best to preserve the State from the con-
troll of the negroes, and to maintain in all
their integrity the time-honored institutions
of Delaware, the whipping post and pillory.
On Tuesday there was q Democratic county
meeting held at Dover, at which Charles
Brown formerly of PHILADELPHIA and Eli
Salisbury urged the importance of the
''white mans" movement; but there does not
appear to have been any great amount of en-
thusiasm on the subject, although there is no
telling what may happen if the "white men"
persevere. Eli, who appears to look after the
home interests of the Salisbury family,
while his distinguished brother represents
the intelligence of Delaware in the
Senate of the United States, pronounced the
fifteenth amendment a fraud, bat advised
submission to it at present. 1t is in the
highest degree gratifying for us to learn that
the Saulsburys do not intend to inaugurate
rebellion just now, at any rate, on account of
the fifteenth amendment, and it is not to be
uOuDIeu Unht I'LL ADVICE Will De Str1Ctly t0l-
lowed by the unterrifed Democracy of Della
ware. For giving this advice, however, the
citizens of Philadelphia ought to be particu-
larly grateful to Eli, for in case Delaware
should take up arms this city would certainly
be the first object of attack, and we can we'll
imagine the panic that would ensue if the
bold warriors of the 'tforest" of Delaware
were to march against us. Instead of going
to war, however, the "foresters" propose
to expend their energies on the
organization of ''white mans"
party, and as this will give them ample en-
ployment for the balance of their natural
lives, we have comparatively little to fear
from them. We therefore wish the "white
mans" party in Delaware well, and we only
hope that the negro vote at the next election
will not crush it out so effectually that it will
never more be heard of, for it will never do
any harm to any one, and it will afford vast
amount of innocent amusement to a number
of individuals who have no other means of
entertainment.

THE UNION LEAGUE BALL.

The grand ball at the Union League Club
House last evening was one of the most bril-
liant affairs of the kind ever given in this
city. Although it was a celebration of the
fifth anniversary of the occupation of the pre-
sent building, it was considered by the men,
bers in the light of a grand house warming,
as it was the first purely social entertainment
ever given by the Club. Such grand ball
had been contemplated at the opening of the
elegant structure on Broad street, but the
assassination of President Lincoln put a stop
to the preparations for the festivities, and
until the present time various reasons have
interfered to prevent such a social reunion as
that of last night. The Union League repre-
sentsthe wealth, culture, and patriotism of Phi
ladelphia, and its eminent services during the
war for the suppression of the Rebellion were
such as cannot readily be forgotten. Not
only did it labor zealously in raising, equip
ping and sending to the field large bodies of
troops when the Union armies were most in
need of reinforcements, bat in innumerable
ways it advanced the Union cause, and by its
eminent services won the most cordial esteem
of those statesmen and officers of the army
and navy who were prominently engaged in
the great work of suppressing the Rebellion.
Both during the war and since its conclusion
the Union League has used its influence at all
times in advancing Union sentiments, In de-
nouncing treason and its aiders and abettors,
and in upholding those who uphold the
national cause. In politics it has represented
the intelligence of Philadelphia, and the
beneficial influence that it has exerted can
scarcely be estimated.
The Union League, however, is social as
well as political organization, and the ele-
giant entertainment of last evening was for
the purpose of carrying out one of the ideas
of its foundation. AS was to be expected,
the decorations of the building, the arrange
ments for the comfort of the guests, aud all
the appointments of the ball, were as perfect
as possible and in the best taste. The com
pany VAS large, and besides the Governor OF

the State, and a number of prominent officers
of the army and navy, il represented the best
Philadelphia society. 1t was such gather
ing as is seldom seen, and We can say no
more in commendation than that the whole
affair was a credit to the League and an
occasion of perfect enjoyment to the guests
who were in attendance. 1t was what ball
at the Union League House could scarcely
help being, grand success in all particulars.

HAVANA. FEB. 70.
The Captain General authorizes the follow
ing statement in the official Journal:
Information has come into the hands of the
government confirming the suspicious which
have long been entertained. 1t is known that
agents of the Laberantcs or Cnbans who are
not fighting in the field, but are in other ways
working against Spain, have ordered their
men to join volunteer battillions here and
under cover of the uniform 10 perpetrate a
series of assassinations on foreigners with
the object of embroiling the government with
foreign powers. The assassination of
Greenwoud was part of programme. The
governenment expects loyal volunteers to aid
it in exposing all traitors of this class Act
ing Consul General Hall received two weeks
ago an anonymous letter warning him that
he was in danger of assassination. He not-
fed the Captain General of the circumstances
and paid no further attention to it. On the
following day three natives Of Havana who
were suspected of connection with the pro-
posed assassination, left suddenly for New
Orleans.

The field of ice has extended to the dam, form
ing complete but uneven mass. few more
cold nights will ensure safe passage to heavy
teams across the free bridge. The fall OF
snow on Monday has given the ice and ruins
of the railroad bridge and buildings embedded
in it an appearance not unlike that of lookingat
. picture throughthe medium of stcreoscope.
We understand that the debris OF the railroad
bridge will soon be brought on shore, as there
is much valuable lumber and iron in the ruins
which may be made available in tn, opera
tons of the railroad company. The water has
gradually subsidized until yesterday, when from
some cause it rose, by measurement in this
city, some three inches. If the cold weather
continues no further damage need be aPpre-
hcnded from the mass of ice. II would be
well for our citizens, however, to be on their
guard and prepared for whatever may come.
A violent rain would give repetition Of the
disaster of Sunday last. A wise man will
forsee the danger and if he cannot flee from
II. prepare to meet it. Care should be taken
n make more secure buildings exposed to
freshets. The cellars of stores on the river
side Of Water steet should be kept clear Of
everything that may be injured by water.
