THE METROPOLITAN POLICE BILL.
THE Democratic programme for defeating
the Metropolitan Police bill in the Senate has
failed, despite the assessment Of Mayor Foxs
force, and there appears to be fair prospect
Of its passage in the House. The new system
it proposes to inaugurate is by no means un-
Objectionable. 1t will give the city partisan
police, and one which will unfortunately be
committed, in large degree, to the personal
fortunes Of the men who have misrepresented
Philadelphia ct Harrisburg. We should have
greatly preferred a measure free from this
serious defect, but it is unfortunately
impossible for the people to
obtain from the politicians of either
party what they should have, and in the choice
of evils we decidedly prefer a Republican to
q Democratic force, and a permanent force to
one subjected to unceasing changes. Moth
ing can be more injurious than the present
method of removing all the trained old police
men whenever political revolution occurs in
the year of Mayors election. This evil, at
least, will be averted by the new law; and it
would be better for all classes, and in the
end for all parties, if the Republican Com
missioners, in reconstructing the force, per-
mitted portion of the most faithful and USE
full of the Democratic policemen to retain
their present positions. What the people
need is the maintenance of peace and order,
and the public interests should not be made
subordinate to partisan considerations.

ART AND ARTISTS.

WE are called upon every day to congratu-
late ourselves upon the increasing demand
for pictures through the country. ''There can
be no surer sign of the nations progress in re-
fnement and culture" cry the artists, ''than
the growing wish of the people to make beau
tiful their homes; art is waking from her
long Sleep" etc. etc.
Now there are two sides to every subject;
and it is as well, perhaps, for our provincial
readers that the reverse of this fattering tale
should be told. 1t is quite true that the de-
mand for pictures, good and bad, has in
creased to an unprecedented extent in the
last FIVE years Chromos, and now the really
valuable carbon-photographs have in great
measure satisfied this popular whim, if whim
it is. There are also in Philadelphia and
New York three or four reliable dealers
through whom good paintings, American and
foreign, can be procured, which are what they
profess to be. .e
But aside from these there are in both
cities horde of inferior traders from whom
comes the present inoessant olamor about
art. They discourse learnedly of chiaro-
oscura, of tone, and breadth and chic.
of European masters, assuring us graveIy that
our country is too young to worthily sacri-
fee to art They hold occasional auctions in
the seaboard cities, but the largest part of
these sales are made in the interior, the South
and West, to which they continually send
''private collections" Dusseldorf galleries,
etc., etc. There are enough ''undoubted old
masters" or gems of Herzog and Achen-
bach, scattered through the country to make
hideous every brick wall in Philadelphia.
Smith, having made his fortune in Pitts
burg or Chicago, builds his villa out of town,
and comes East with an odd thousand or two
to buy a landscape, or brace of them, for
his parlors. He finds q genuine antique in
the dingy auction room, which the dealer
adroitly fxes at point just above his paltry
thousand. He strains a point and goes off
! triumphant with his prize, to be known there
after az patron of art in his native town.
He does not notice the young fellow behind
him in the auction room, stroking his whis-
| kers with sickly smile. That is young
johnson, who furnished the antique yester-
day for fifteen dollars, as per contract There
are n dozen more young fellows who, like
johnson, supply the gems at SO much per
canvas.
A few years ago they were known as young
men of promise and ambition. Nobody hears
of them now. But it is since their disappear
ance that 30 many masterpieces find their
way from the European market to our shores
This business is carried on much more sx-
tensively in New York than here. But not
only are needy young artists in Philadelphia
bought up by the traders, but, we regret to say,
some of higher grade, for whom the tempta-
ton of ten or fifteen dollars for an hours
work proves too much for their loyalty to art.
We know one young fellow who recognized
seventeen of his own five-dollar daubs in the
paintings of the German school belonging to
great fnancier in the CITY, who had given

With regard 10 the abolition Of the death
penalty, however, tho most important ques-
ton is, Will il have q tendency to diminish
the crime of murder2 II this can be demon
strated clearly and definitely, the question OF
the expedienoy and proprioty Of such achange
in our system Of punishments would be mar
rowed down 10 a fine point. This Is not q
mere sentimental question, but 1t Is one in
which every man, woman, and child in the
community that desires TO be protected
from the knives, pistols, and blud-
geons of the rufians who haunt society
is directly interested. II the tendency to
commit murder can be diminished by the
adoption Of another form of punishment, then
society will demand that the gallows shall be
sent after other relics of the dark ages that
modern civilization has cast away from il.
It is on this point that Mr.. Bovee produces
his strongest arguments, and he asserts that
the abandonment of the death penalty has
been successfully tried in the States of Michi-
gan, Rhode Island, and Wisconsin. Mr..
Bovses proofs in support of his position are
rather indefinite, but this phase of the subject
is certainly well worthy of the consideration
Of those who are desirous of removing any
brutalizing elements from the administration
of our laws, and who wish only that the pun
ishments inflicted upon criminals shall be
such as will deter from the commission of
crime.

THE ABOLITION OF THE DEATH
PENALTY

IT is admitted on all sides at the present day,
that the punishment of criminals is intended
primarily for the protection of society, and,
secondly for the reformation of offenders.
Punishments should be SO severe and SO GER
tain that those who are disposed to outrage
the laws will be deferred from SO doing, and
at the same time they should be of such a
nature as will permit of moral influence being
brought to bear upon the convict to inspire
him if possible with desire to lead better
Life OF all the crimes that come under the
ssntence of the law, that of murder is the
only ono that modern civilization has
adjudged to be of so heinous character that
it cannot be expiated except by the life of
the murderer. ALI men shud-
der at the inaiction of such
penalty as this, and there are not few
who dispute both the expediency or justice of
society taking the life Of one of its members
under any circumstances. The object of the
death penalty is, or ought to be, not SO much
vengeance for wrong done to society as the
prevention of the crime of murder by inspir-
2 ing those who may be disposed to commit it
with wholesome dread of the gallows. The
disposition is every day growing stronger to
prevent the inAiction of the death penalty
except upon evidence of the most conclusive
character - u
The moro fact that murderer is convicted
g solely on circumstantial evidence is sufficient
with many persons to secure for him an
amount of sympathy that materially inter-
feres with the administration of justice, and
those who interest themselves most warmly
in such cases are frequently ardent advocates
of capital punishment in the abstract. Mr.
Marvin n. Bovee, in a letter in the Press of
this morning in favor of the abolition Of the
death penalty, urges the difficulty of procur-
ing the conviction and punishment of MUIR
derers and the sympathy excited in their
favor as reasons why the whole machinery of
the gallows should be done away with. We
think that Mr.. Bovee is clearly mistaken as
to tho extent of this sympathy in the
majority of cases where the guilt is clearly
demonstrated, and search through the
records OF the courts and the executive de-
partments at Harrisburg and Washington will
show that quite as much is done to shield
from punishment offenders in other matters
as in that Of murder. 1t is notoriously more
difficult to secure the conviction of certain
outlaws who are guilty of nearly every crime
except that of murder, and it is much easier
TO procure free pardon or a Communication OF
the sentence of the courts from the Execu.
tive. If Mr.. Bovees argument on this point
held good, the sympathies of society would
be against any punishment for crime what
ever. We know very well, however, that the
obstacles in the way of Furnishing certain
classes of offenders are entirely outside of the
sympathies Of society at large, and are Incl
dental to the corruptions Of our system of gov
ernment.
