The SENATE, a few days ago, refused to
abolish the franking privilege, and when the
result of the vote on the question was an
nounced it was received with shouts of
laughter by honorable Senators who evidently
considered the proposition to reduce the ex-
penditures of the Post Office Department by
$4,000, 900 or more per annum as glorious
joke. 1t remains now to be seen whether
they will esteem the agitation for the aboli-
ton of the income tax as a jest also, and thus
wind up the session by two acts in direct def
ance of the will of the people. There is hope,
however, that the Senators will be amenable
to reason on this last ubject. They must
know that the feeling against the con-
tinuance of the tax is exceedingly
bitter, and that any public man
who may venture to advocate it will
certainly be made to feel the weight of public
indignation whenever he may come up for
any Office of trust or honor. Unlike the
franking privilege, this is not question of
personal interest with the Senator's and as
they have nothing to lose individually by
abolishing the tax, it is possible that they
may agree to comply with the wishes of those
who now protest against the income tax as
nuisance of the most gigantic dimensions.
The subject was debated yesterday without
any conclusion being arrived at, but as nearly
all the Senators who spoke declared them
selves as opposed to the tax, there seems to be
fair probability that enough votes will be
secured to put an end to it at once and for
ever.

Protesting intense reverence for the
teachings of Jefferson, they ignore his posi-
tive declarations in favor OF radical changes
of fundamental laws whenever such changes
are necessitated by the course of events, and
they are blind to the truth that the best
framework of government which the wit of
man could devise for the present day might
easily become unexpectedly tyrannical to
those who occupy the stage of action hun
dred years hence. In point of fact, the
thing which the Democracy prefers to wor-
ship is merely a bulwark of treason and
slavery, created by their distortions and false
interpretations of the Constitution, and the
Republican party, by its amendments, has
only restored, affirmed, enlarged, and adapted
to the existing exigencies its true meaning.

The Cuban resolutions submitted to the
Senate yesterday by Mr.. Sumner are decided
ly the most complete and correct expression
of the sentiments of the American people on
the various questions involved that has yet
been attempted They do not display rabid
partisanship for either of the contending
parties, nor ignore the virtues and the crimes
of either side. They take strong grounds
against the barbarities committed alike by
the agents of the Spanish Government and
the insurgents protest vigorously against
the continuance of slavery and the colonial
system as applied to America, and yet they
appeal to the enlightened judgment Of
the Spanish people for redress OF
the prevailing grievances instead of approving
illegal interference. In the end the official
expression of such sentiments may do the
Cubans more real good than the despatch of a
dozen ill-starred 6libustering expeditions
from our shores.

FROM time TO time a rumor goes through the press
of certain lost portions OF Livy having been dis
covered somewhere or other. II we remember
rightly recent novel Of Gustav Freytag turns upon
this incident. Now, however, 1t seems that a real
MS, containing not lost portion, but nearly the
whole Of the Fourth Decade, discovered recently
in the PetroPauline Library at Liegntz, in Slesai
by the Librarian and Professor of the Gymnasium
1t may well be that this is OF the many MSS. Of
Livy which still extant in the fifteenth century
and which were unaccountably lost after the pub-
cation OF the "Edtio Princeps." in Rome, in 1852
We may remind readers that out OF the 142 books
divided into decades), only thirty, with the largest
portions OF FIVE more, now survive, embracing the
period from POI to 167, and that among the frag-
ments imbedded in other works. Lvy's Character
OF Cicero" is conspicuous. There is no reason to
doubt the genuineness OF this discovery.

An ORDINANCE for the regulation of the
Water Department was discussed in Select
Council yesterday, and after considerable de-
bate was laid over until September. This
measure is designed to enforce greater
economy in the use of water than has been
the custom heretofore, and if there is any
serious danger that our water supply will
prove insufficient, some regulations to pre-
vent its waste should undoubtedly be esta-
blished With the Delaware on one side of
us, however, and the Schuylkill on the
other, it iss scarcely possible that this
city can ever lack an abundance of
the fluid, provided proper means are taken to
supply enough reservoirs and to keep them
filed; and it would be vastly better to in
crease the facilities of the water works than
to place any restrictions upon the citizens
The health of Philadelphia largely depends
upon an abundant water supply, and although
it may seem that much water is wasted, it
needs no argument to show that it is better
to use too much than too little. The drought
last summer was owing to the insuffciency of
the machinery in use at Fairmount, and it
ought not to be considered as legitimate
reason for placing any restrictions on the use
| of the water, except in some similar case of
| emergency.

II is 10 be hoped that Select Council at its
next meeting will concur in the ordinance
passed yesterday by the Common branch,
creating loan of $2, 900, 600 for the further
extension of Fairmount Park. The work of
putting the Park grounds into proper shape
has scarcely commenced, and it will be
several years before they can be made what
they ought to be. We expect a grand Enter-
national exposition to be held here in 1876,
and as the buildings will undoubtedly be
placed in the Park, it is of the utmost i'm
portance that the improvements should be
pushed forward as rapidly as possible, if our
magnificent pleasure ground is to present such
an appearance as it should. The
natural advantages of Fairmount Parl;
are greater than those of any
other place of the kind, probably, in the
whole world, but before nature can be shown
to the best advantage art must lend its aid;
and considering the vast extent of the work
to be performed, it is of the highest import
ance that it should be seriously commenced
at as early day as possible and pushed for
ward as rapidly as is consistent with thorough
ness. Councils will shortly adjourn for the
summer and if the Loan bill is not acted
upon by the Select branch next week there is
danger that in the rush of business it may
fail to receive the attention is deserves and
be laid over until September.

DElfOCRACY IN YERMONT.

The Vermont Democracy recently held their
annual State Convention, and it is pleasing to
leara that, despite a series of local defeats
extending through more than half century,
they ''still have faith in the wisdom and in
tegrity of the people, and still cherish hope
that ultimately they will rise in their maj esty
and strength and hurl from power our cor
rupt rulers" Weak in numbers, they cling to
their ancient affairs as deyotedly as the Pueblo
Indians OF New Mexico, and offer up their
annual sacrifices with as much regularity as if
their fond anticipations had never been
blasted Like their fellow-partisans in other
States, they profess to be endowed with a
profound regard for the Constitution, their
chief ground of opposition to Republicanism
being it's alleged violation of the provisions
of that instrument; and, like the De-
mocracy of other sections, they lay
special stress upon those parts
of the Constitution which were formed
eighty years ago, while they ignore or forget
the amendments of modern origin. The
s'Constitution as it is" has ceased to be a
fayorite Democratic rallying-cry. That party
reserves its sympathies for the Constitution
as secession leaders formerly expounded it,
and withholds its reverence alike from the
notifications made necessary by the changed
condition of national affairs, aud from the
true Interpretation of the original instrument.
Democratic orators and writer's have
spoken ard written an incalculable
amount Of bosh abea! the Constitution.

A APRoPosrr1oS was introduced IN Common
Council yesterday to have the old State House
bell tolled on the Fourth Of July next in front
of Independence Hall We fail to see any
particular reason for such a performance as
this under any circumstances, and it will be
particularly Objectionable from the fact that
the bell is so badly cracked that it cannot
emit any musical sounds, and that it will in
all probability be injured to greater extent
than at present by being dragged from its
present position and hammered at. The bell
is useless for all practical purposes, ana it
had much better be permitted to rest in peace
on its pedestal in the hall where the Declara-
ton of Independence was signed.

Whether It's nobler to forego the suffrage
And bear the arrows Of outrageous fortune,
Or take arms against our sex's troubles,
And. by opposing, end them? To live-to we'd
No more; and by a marriage say we end
The heartache, only to nurse the little ills
Women are heir to--'tis a eonsummation
Not for Joseph, if the Court herself doth know
And that she doth is most indubitable
To vote-to act-to act, perchance. farce; ay,
There's the rub; for by this act what fights may
come,
When we have shuffled or our crinoIine?
This makes us pause; this. too, is the respect
That makes calamity of woman's suffrage:
For who would bear the kicks and cuffs of men.
The oppressoris fists our lords eoDtumely.
Assault and battery, and the laws delay;
The insolence of bummers and the spurns
That patient women from rough loafers take,
When, to avoid it. she could stay at home
And use her bodkin2 Who would musket bear.

But for the pleasures of Emancipation-
