INTERNA TIONAL EXPOSITION IN
PHILADELPHIA IN 1876.

GREAT BRITAIN is completing arrangements
for series of annual and international exhi-
billions of specimens of works of fine art and
industry" which are to hold at London.
They are to commence on the 1st of May and
close on the 3Oth of September of each
year, beginning in 1871. The Presi-
dent, in response to an official re-
quest from the British authorities, has ap-
pointed Mr.. Beckwith, who was prominently
identified with the American department of
the International Exposition held few years
ago in Paris, to act as the Commissioner of
the United States for the London Exhibitions.
Meanwhile st. Louis and Washington are
both devising plans for international indus
trial expositions, to be held within their
municipal limits But if proper efforts
are made, the first great American
International Exposition which will
be indeed worthy of the name, and far trans
cend in extent and Importance all former dis
plays on this continent, will be held in this
city in 1876 In this progressive and inven-
tive age there will be special propriety in
summoning the nations of the earth to ex-
hibit and recount their industrial triumphs,
and to cultivate peace and goodwill in the
city where a hundred years before, the
erandest of modern ideas we're embodied and
the greatest of nations created. The Franklin
Institute has already taken the initial steps in
this enterprise, and it deserves the hearty CO.
operation of the municipal, State, and ma
tional authorities, as well as that of
all patriotic citizens. A comprehensive
and gigantic plan of operations should be
adopted at an early period, the interest of the
whole American people should be awakened
in the project, and the hearty cooperation of
every friendly Government should be so fully
enlisted that not only every State in the
Union, and every nation of North and South
America, but all the civilized countries of the
world would be we'll represented. For such a
demonstration, no more convenient andappro-
pirate place than Philadelphia could be Sc
lected, and when to her many local advan-
tages the associations connected with the CEN
tennial are superadded, it would be easy to
attract here in 1876 much larger number of
visitors and a greater array and variety of
articles for exhibition than could be as
sembled at any other time and place on this
side of the Atlantic. The best and only hope
of vieing with the imposing French and Eng
lish Expositions is presented by this attrac-
tive project, and we trust that from this time
henoeforth this end will be kept steadily in
view by all who are able to contribute towards
its attainment.

TILE DARLEN CANAL.

THERE appeared in the New York Herald of
February 4 a communication, signed A. Baum,
chief engineer, calling attention to the fact
that an organization styling itself the Darien
Canal Company was about being formed in
that city for the construction of a ship canal
across the Isthmus of Darien, and that a
prospectus then in press would be issued in
few days, giving the facts and conclusions in
regard to the project. This, in connection
with the departure of the expedition recently
despatched from Washington under the COM
mand of Commander Thomas o. 'Selfridge,
consisting of the flagship Nipsic and the
store ship Guard, admirably equipped
and provisioned, seems to indicate
the awakening interest among commercial
men of the immense value this transoceanic
highway may be to the United States. The
successful accomplishment of the Suez Canal
also causes the project of our Isthmian Canal
to find favor in the French capital, as evil
denoed by the formation of a company there,
and the departure of General Heine last week
to superintend survey of the isthmus.
Mr.. Baum says ''that the explorations of
various routes, and the reports that have from
bluo W piiiho oooh SiNoh W tno WOrlu Oh Lno
lines best adapted to canal connection be-
tween the waters of the Atlantic
and Pacific Oceans, have given
sufficient data to safely assume
that the present survey will determine upon
what is known as the DIR. Cullen route, as
the most practicable and least expensive
line by which interoceanic communication
can be effected" This route, known as the
s'Caledonia Harbor and Gulf of San Miguel
line" was discovered in 1S49 by DIR. Edward
Cullen, who, in spite of most formidable and
appalling difficulty, made a more particular
examination of it in each of the three follow
ing years. He assumes the length of this
line to be AZ English miles, from which at
least may be deducted for the windings OF
the Sucubti river, which would be cut across.
1t runs for 21a miles along the bed of that
river, the lower II of which are pretty direct
and would admit of being changed into 9
canal by means of dams and embankments
Tor moderate outlay, leaving twenty-sever
miles for the length of actual canal required
This distance would be easily traversed il
twenty-hour hours, and the probable expense
would not exceed forty millions of dollars
while the cost OF canal by the Lake Nicara
qua route, it is estimated, would be one hun
dred millions of dollars, about the cost of tn,

for canal from Aspinwall to Panama wa

The DEMOCRATIC GOVERNOR OF CALIFORNIA
has proved recreant to the principles of his
party. The Legislature, whose Democracy is
of less uncertain type than the Govern ors,
having passed resolution awarding damages
to the publishers of a secession paper which
was destroyed during the war by a mob of
loyal citizens and soldiers, Governor Haight
has interposed his veto and declared that this
is not the most effective way Of making
treason odious. During the late Andy John
sons reign, the veto business fell into con-
siderable disrepute, but Governor Haight and
Governor Geary have accomplished consider

The SUPREME CoURT of Pennsylvania this
morning sustained the decision of the Court
of Common Pleas in the contested election
cases, seating all the Republican candidates
with the exception of General Tyndale. This
decision renders ineffective the frauds of the
Democracy, by which it was hoped to obtain
the control of the city government, and it
will Of course occasion howl of rage and
defiance from the ''unterrifed" The only
thing we have to regret in this matter is that
Mr.. Sheppard was not retained in the Office of
District Attorney, where he proved himself
to be emphatically the right man in the right
place, and we could well have spared Mr..
Fox instead of him. There is very little
doubt that General Tyndale was really elected
Mayor, but it was of course impossible to
bring absolute proof of all the frauds that
were perpetrated, and we will consequently
be obliged to submit to Mayor Fox and his
police for season longer. Judges Thomp-
son and Sharswood, of course, took the Demo-
cratic view of of the case, and dissented from
the opinion of the ma jority of the Court, but
it is qualification to know that their dissent
will not avail to prevent justice from being
done. The thanks of the Republican party
are due to William B. Mann, Esq, for the
energy which he has displayed in conducting
this case from the beginning.

GENERAL BUTLLE has again got the best of
his abusers. In the course of the debate in
the House of Representatives on Saturday,
Mr.. Dawes again took the liberty of compar-
ing the demolition of 'Shoo Fly Cox to Saul
of Tarsus; whereupon General Butler pro-
posed that the assertion of his having once
voted for jeff. Davis and the other standing
accusations against him be kept standing in
type also, for daily insertion in the Congress
SionaI Globe, at great saving in the cost of
composition. He said that he had been
likened to Saul of Tarsus once day on an
average, and supposed that the only reason
his accusers avoided comparison with Judas
Iscariot was the fact that Judas was the Oldest
of the disciples. Another outburst of merri-
ment on the part of our lawmakers, who have
such generous relish for irst-class minstrel
humor, followed this apt rejoinder,
and demonstrated how slim are the
chances of suppressing Butler by insinua-
tions about jeff. Davis, Dutch Gap, Saint
Paul, or any other weak point in his past re-
cord. The best thing thats Cox and Dawes
can do with Butler is to let him alone.

THE LEADING oFFIcERs of the uniformed
militia of this city have issued circular re-
monstrating against the bill recently passed
by the House of Representatives, which re-
duced the militia tax to fifty cents. They
propose that the tax shall be fixed at 81 if
paid by the LIST of July, and that it should be
equally borne by all our taxpayers, persons
over forty-fve years of age not being exempt.
Their argument in favor Of the tax is based
mainly on ''the Importance of a military force
In every large city, if not in each county,
sufficiently powerful to sustain the officers of
the law in their execution of all their pre-
cepts in every emergency" And if the uni
formed militia are to be considered in the light
of an adjunct to the police, and to be sup
ported on that ground, we know of no
good reason why they should not be sustained
by revenues raised in substantially the same
manner as the funds which are now appro-
priated to the payment of police expenses.
The existing arrangements for collecting a
poll-tax, however, are miserably defective, as
tens of thousands of voters now deposit their
ballots annually without paying cent of
taxation. This defect should be remedied,
and it would not be a bad plan to levy tax
of one dollar from every voter and to apply
the sums realized from this source exclusively
to the use of the military organizations.

SUSAN b. ANTHONY and the rest of the
woman sliffragists have achieved triumph
where they probably least expected it. On
Saturday, Acting Governor Mann, of Utah,
signed bill which had passed both branches
of the Territorial Legislature comforting the
right of suffrage upon the women of Nor
mondom. AS every orthodox male follower
of Brigham has divided his conjugal affec-
tions among a half-dozen women more or
less, and the women are therefore presumably
much more numerous than the men, the
latter will find themselves outvoted at the
polls, and in deplorable state of subjection
generally. The first result of this state of
affairs will doubtless be the election of a
female Legislature in the Territory, the over
throw of polygamy, and the establishment of
poiyandry in its place. We would advise
Susan and the other old ladies who are run
ming the ReooIutiOn and woman suffrage to
emgrate to Utah without delay. In COM
munity IN which plurality of husbands is
about to become the fashion, there would be
ray of hope even for Miss Anthony.

THE SPECULATIVE GENIUS of our State legis-
lators, and their desire to reap personal
profits by the creation of monopolies or the
grant of exclusive privileges, have been dis
played in 80 many ways that wa are onIv
astonished that they respect anv of the re.
naming rights of private citizens. Since
they have commenced the monopoly business
why do they not put up for sale bills for the
grant of an exclusive right for selling drv
goods, or making shoes, or keeping hotel
or publishing newspapers, or of following
any one of hundred avocations? 1t is evi.
IDENTIFY not principle that restrains their greed,
and if they are determined to oppress and
plunder their constituents, they would exhibit
more manliness by completing their task in
an open and direct manner than by resorting

THE ScHoEpPE CASE was disposed of by the
Supreme Court this morning, and, as was to
have been expected, adversely to the interests
of the alleged murderer of Miss Steinnecke.
1t would seem, therefore, that the Governor
is the only person who can interpose to rescue
DIR. Schoeppe from the halter and from the
position hitherto taken by that Official and
especially his recent veto of the bill passed
by the State Legislature affecting appeals in
capital cases, the doom of the unfortunate
man would appear to be decreed at last

The VIRGINIA HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,
on Saturday adopted, with few dissenting
votes only, q resolution declaring the mex
pedienoy of electing to Office any person who
is disqualified by the terms of the fourteenth
amendment. We may, perhaps, be at liberty
to find fault with the introduction Of the
word inexpediency into this resolution, as we
would certainly prefer to have witnessed such
action based upon sentiment which did not
insinuate that it was compulsory and not
voluntary; but we can certainly afford to con-
gratulate Virginia upon the fact that every
day she gives additional evidence of thorough
appreciation of the require nents Of the situa-
ton, and of a determination to comply with
these requirements in the freest and fullest
manner and in the utmost good faith. A
lively sense of expediency, as the world goes,
is almost as good as downright wisdom.

A CONGRESSIONAL BoUoUET costs the people
precisely $3.50. Such, at least, is the result
of the calculation made by Mr.. Axtell, of
California, whose limitation to tive nosegays
a month caused him to look into the matter
and figure up the expense. AS the House has
voted to abolish the franlzing privilege, it of
course held on TO the Botanical Garden, which
is one of the smaller sins of Congress, and
should not be touched until the larger iniqui-
ties have received the attention they merit.
But it is to be hoped that the day of the nose
gays will come in good time. Congress is ad-
vancing, and the friends of reform should not
be discouraged because members hold fast to
their semi-monthly bouquets from the Bo-
tanical Garden. Moreover taste for flowers
has always been regarded as ennobling, and
Congressman will bear an indefinite infliction
of the process.
