BROUGHT TO JUDG UENT


The Boston school of religious Radicals. OF
Transccndentalists, or Skeptics, or whatever be
the designation given to the persons calling
themselves Free Religionsts, is now challenged
by an ADLER opponent than it has yet encoun-
tered. Dr. McCosh, the distinguished Scottish
scholar, metaphysician, and orthodox divine.
who came to this country a year ago to AS
sumo the Presidency of Princeton College. re-
Gently confronted the Free Religiopists in
Boston itself with several discourses of great
power and effect. The controversy in which
he has taken up the championship of orthodox
Protestant Christianity against them is one in
which we do not propose to take any part.
But we cannot help expressing our admiration
of the bold attitude which DIR. McCosh has
assumed, and of the way in which he has
opened his assaults-so far rs we can Judge
by the reports of his discourses in the Boston
papers.
That the so-called Boston School" of Re-
Ii, ion or of Skepticism-whicheve it may be
called-will derive benefit from the demonstra-
tions Of this orthodox thinker is not at
all unlikely. 1t has its weaknesses-its
great wcahncss-and will be none the worse
for having strong hand laid upon them. 1t

UOOL IND UOOLENS.

The Daily Bulletin is a dry-gOOds concern
issued in our City and run by the reeTraders
for the dissemination of their views. AS it has
long been trying to attract THE TRIBUNE's no
tice, we crafty it by copying from its issue of
the eth inst. as follows
"DEPREssIoS wooLES ISrEREsT.-There is a
cruelty in TIE TRIBUSEs boast that the prices of
goods low as in 1860 which the manufacturers
understand how to appreciate. While, have re-
peatedly shown The TRIBUSE's statement il gross
aggeratOn it is yet too true that prices have
four years, ruled low to involve the
manufacturers, with few exceptions In very heavy
losses and to seriously weaken this industry The man
ufactrers, encouraged by the false theories of TIE
TRIBUNE, demanded advance in the duties foreign
wooens. This being granted the wool growers argued
that the manufacturers being protected against foreign
goods they also ought to be protected against foreign
woo The fairness of the appeal could not be resisted
THE TRIBUNE pronounced the claim TO be consistent
with sound economic principles ald the manufacturers
and the growers compromised upon wool tariff which
enormously increased the duty upon imported woods.
Most bitterly have the manufacturers lamented the
results of that compromise It's effect has been shut
the very classes Of woods which lubricants
needed and to confne their production limited va
riety Of goods Domestic woods well enough adapted
for certain descriptions of goods; but there is large
class OF fabrics requiring rmness Of texture and fine
of finish, for which they not available. In those
required but it is precisely these that the tariff e1
oludes. Upon Mestiza the duty Is 10 cents per
pound in gold and 10 per cent od paioren,, or
about lll cents god and, as three pounds OF the
cleaned wool is required for the production Of one
pound in the clean state. the duty upon each pound
the available material is about IS cents gold
course this is prohbtOry The effect Of the exclusion
Of this class Of woods from market has been To reduce
the price in the foreign markets one
half; oorrespOndngly aiding European nanufac-
turers, in competing with goods. The natural
result Of this wise legislation has been 10 enhance
enormously the cost OF making all descriptions OF
domestic cloth goods and TO equally cheaper the produc
ton of like goods in Europe This benefcent protection
Of the wool Olrowers has therefore prohibited the
facure OF very important class OF fine goods, which
beginning 10 mako very successfully, and has
necessitated our mills running upon narrow variety.
In this way the production Of such fabrics ~, under
these restrictions have been able to make has been
immensely Overdone and the markets being constantly
guted prices ruled below cost for several
in succession"

Since Count Valmaseda and the Governor of
Santiago refused obedience to the Captain
Generals orders. the rumOr gained proba-
bility that Admiral Malcampo acting with the
Spanish volunteers, had declined to surrender
the steamer Aspinwall on demand of Gen. De
Rodas, inspired by that of the United States.
The attempt at counter-revolution in Ha-
vana, with view to send home De Rodas,
like his predecessor Dulce, may still lack some
elements to make it a success. That inflated
person, Gen. Valmaseda is understood TO be
the favOrite candidate of the volunteers for
the Captain General5hp, or rather the Butcher
Generalship. This is no time for our Govern
lnent to be amiable, if the Spanish volunteers

Now let Canada shake to its center-even to
its Head Center. Twenty Fenians, clad IN
uniform of Irish frieze, with knapsacks on
their backs, and-if we may be allowed a
pleasant stretch of imaginatiOn-with the very
Sunburst on their cOuntenances, have been
seen passing through Boston, North. Excel
sior! Twenty Fenians, more or less
with pickaxes on their shoulders, have
been discovered in the nelghb0r-
hood of the border. For whom do they
dig pit, and who is to fall into it 7 But
greater terrors are in store for those heroes OF
alarm, those veterans of panic, the Canadian
volunteers. Powder has been concealed III
spots along the line-men and arms are lying
in wait for an invasion in May. The Guy
Fawkes of this new Gunpowder Plot is surely
Fenian in frieze with knapsack on his
back. Excelsior Only we beg our Fenian
brethren not to destroy the boundary line or
set the st. Lawrence on fire. If they invade
Canada they make war on the United States,
| and then-why then, we shall have to lock
| them up.

Remarks bu The Tribune.

The benevolent Mr.. Farnsworth, in his
struggles to save $40 each for his absentee
brethren, made the sage remark in the House,
on Monday, that the said "absentees had been
sufficiently punished by having their names
published in The Globe" How long is it
since these shrinking, modest, retiring, bashful
gentlemen have been 50 fearful of seeing their
names in printg 1t has seemed to us to be
the summit of many members ambition to
have his name mentioned in The Globe and
even to be paraded before the nation ~ de-
liycring IA speech which he did not deliver.
would not have been permitted to deliver, and
which, if he had been allowed to deliver it.
would have emptied the House in twenty
minutes. We rather think that the absentees
will stand posting in The-Giobe without at
tempting suicide. They are like old Bagstock
they are tough. Sir-deyish tough,

clusions must ultimately be tried.
The "Boston School" has no preGmnent
leader to put forward in its defense-no great
controversalist like Claiming or Parker. 1t

and women Of fine intellect and high powers.
We have no doubt that these will be quite

assailant 1t would be difficult to name any

fender not unworthy its renOwn in that deep
thinker, uncommon scholar, and courageous

If the managers of the Pennsylvania HOS
pital. at their meeting on Monday next, resolve
to deny to the lady students OF the femaie
Medical School admittance to the clinical lee
lures. they will do as foolish and as futile
thing as the managers of the Academy oil
Music in the same city did in refusing TO
permit colored citizens to rejoice therein. Anu
moreover, they will make themselves equally
ridiculous. 1t was found that there were
other halls in Philadelphia in which free-
dom could rejoice, when the Academy
was barred, and there are other hospitals
in which medical knowledge can be
attained by the ladies. We regret that the
managers of the Hospital should have deemed
it necessary to submit the question OF admitting
women students to the clinics to the meeting OF
contributors. The action was demanded only by
the male students who lately attacked the ladies
in q disgraceful manner, and few members OF
the medical fraternity who have endeavored to
influence public opinion unfayorably to the wo-
men-students by anonymous publications full
of gross personal abuse of the present managers
The concession of leaving the question to vote
of the contributors ought never to have been
made. There is little to fear, however, for the
result. Science can no more be monOpolized
bv one sex than Freedom by one color. We
have MT doubt that the Pennsylvania Hos
pital contributors will be wiser than the Phil
adelphia Academy stockholders, and decide
that among the inalienable rights of women Is
that of an education as thorough and compre-
hensive as they may be willing to acquire
New-York tribune., 1870-04-29

By all means let the House give heed and
early consideration to the memorial Oh 'he
New-York Workingmen who ask to be renewed
from paying eight times over the tax when IL
was sought to levy on the Street Railroad Com
panies. The tax was fixed at one-eighth OF
cent on each passenger, but instead ol
paving it from their legal fare, the com
panies advanced their rates from five 10 sS
cents, thus compelling the passengers to pay
tax for and to them. 1t was an outrage &c
which the people ought not to have sub,
mitted Local legislation in this City anc
State has been fruitless in compelling the
COMPANIES to return to former rates. II
Congress has any power in the premises let II
force the Railroad Companies to pay their OWL
taxes.

The details and incidents of the Richmond
disaster to be found elsewhere, make very
painful reading The disaster WAS the result
of changes made years ago in the inte-
rior arrangements of the courtroom, with
out the advice or direction of a COM
pctent architect. A natural inquiry, un-
der the circumstances, is suggested as
TO the protection which the law affords to our
citizens in like cases. There are numerous old
buildings in New-York which have been re-
modelled time and again, and others which
are being rearranged in their interiors at this
time. We doubt very much if such changes
are ever made under the supervision of compe-
tent architects or the Inspector OF Buildings,
but we arc certain they ought 10 DO.

4 rU1NCE FOR THE TREASURY.

Il
We earnestly hope that Secretary Boutwell,
will not fail to observe what price he can now
obtain here for at least portion OF the gold
locked up in the Treasury. few weeks ago
he sold a million of coin at but O traction
over 40. and within a short time past he has
sold million after million at prices ranging
from 11Ot to 1l2t Yesterday gold was 115f, or
between four and five per cent higher than
recent sales. In other words, he would at yes
terday's rates have received for every million ne
was able to sell between forty and fifty thou
sand dollars more than at the current rates OF
the last two or three months. Even II the
price had gone down one or two per cent
under large Treasury sales, he might still
have secured one, two, or three per cent more
than he has recently obtained; and one per
cent on million amounts to the not lnconSld-
erable sum of ten thousand dollars.
ii is not at all likely that the Government
will be able long to command such price for
anv norton of its reserve as it may now Sc
cure. The present advance is largely due to
speculative movements, which must soon work
themselves out and it is all the more neces-
sary therefore, that the Treasury should take
advantage of existing circumstances. In day
or two the Secretary will announce the public
sales for the coming month. If he act with a
full comprehension of the financial situation, he
will offer as much gold as purchasers desire at
rates near those now current. II spectators
attempt then to put the price lower than he
desires-for example, to make gold less
valuable than currency-he has the option of
refusing to make deliveries on their bids. But,
in any event he should not fail to take adyan-
tage of the present condition of things.

There was more time wasted yesterday on
the Tariff bill, little that was material being
accomplished. The duty on railroad iron was
reduced from 20 to 60 cents per 100 pounds,
but the rest of the day was spent in what may
have been a very Learned but was certainly a
most useless discussion the distinction
between wire and round iron of the same
size" The House, 1t is to be hoped, will, after
time, tire as heartily of this wearisOme work
as the public already has.
