The statesmen who had been denOroccd as
imbeciles were now execrated az mufderers
and traitors The mob had succeeded 80
easily and 80 promptly at Montmartre, the Ma
tiopal Guards had shown so little regard f0r
their military honor, the municipality had
fallen 80 helplessly into the hands OF the
rioters, that they imagined there was some
magic power about the voice of the gamins OF
Paris that would surpass the rams horns OF
Jericho in the work of demolition. 1t was for
this reason that there seemed to them some
thing incxpressibly cruel and mOnstrous in the
action of the Mont Valerien batteries, the day
those helpless herds of folly and presumption
marched out on the Neuilly road to capture
the Government ut Versailles. The madness
continued in Paris after the forlOrn mob had
flocked back into the city, but it was no
longer the CHEEKY delusiOn of the day before.
1t was the sullen and melancholy mania OF
the patient who knows himself disbelieved
and suspects himself insane. They still IN
dulged from time to time in wild and futile
expedents. They issued lyric addresses to
their unrosponsive brethren outside. They
attempted even to fatter the German pride by
dccreoing the destruction of the Vendome
column. lHc TTcciHdSoho Vi6"'i'" '" '
mental picnic on the ramparts, with flags and
signals of fraternity which was sternly broken
up with shell from the unsympathetic guns OF
the Government.
This isolation must in time have strong
effect upon the population of Paris. II the
administration can resist the disintegrating IN
fluences of delay, and if the Prussians can see
that their interests do not suffer by the abnor-
nal situation, the fall of Paris and the col
lapse of the rebellion will point moral which,
if taken to heart, will be worth all the blood
and discord.it has cost. If the conviction can be
once firmly impressed on the general mind that
| Paris means nothing more than two millions,
more or less, of French people, each counting
one in respect of rights and influence, it Will
be difficult to exaggerate the importance OF
the achievement. Of course it will always be
inevitable that 80 great a city shall exercise a
great moral power among the race OF which 1t
is the glory and pride. But if France is to re-
main one of the modern family of nations, II
there are to be any guarantees of peace and
order among Continental powers, 1t must be
settled that Paris is not France, and that a
| knot of maniacs or conspiracy OF adventures
may not at their good pleasure destroy peace
| full government We embrace in precisely the
same condemnation the gamblers OF the coup
| d'(tat and the rioters of 'MOntmartre, and we
are not without hope that the late disgraceful
/ scenes may result ia making both hereafter
poweIcss in France.

A bill was introduced into the Pennsylvania
Legislature the other day to repeal the charter
of the Eclectic Medical College of Philadelphia.
Perhaps some of our readers do not know
what the Eclectic Medical College is. The
Press has been at some trouble to find out,
and has discovered that it possesses, or at
various times has possessed, as many corporate
names as Spanish Prince Of the blood has
titles. The Legislature has tinkered it SO often
that nobody but the faculty can be quite sure
of its identity. On one occasion important
privileges were conferred upon it by an
obscure section in bill authorizing the con-
structiOn of gas-works-a bit of Quaker satire
none the less effective because it was probably
unintentiOnal. Having thus an extraordinary
variety of compound titles to select from, and
considerable ingenuity in making the sclec-
ton, it is not surprising that this fOurishing
institution, which, according to common
report, never had either pupil or profess
sor, and whose faculty consisted wholly of a
Dean, should have preferred to be known by
an appellation which led the public to con-
found it with the highly respectable Univer-
sty of Pennsylvania. The value of this mis-
take is apparent when we learn that the sole
business of the Eclectic Medical College was
the manufacture and sale of degrees, in ac-
cOrdance with the terms of the following
circular:
COLLEGIATE AGENCY.
This agency has been established for the purpose OF
giving such information is generally necessary before
entering upon collegiate of study taking any
Of the learned degrees.
Books medicines &C. will also be sent G. o. ID. at
ket rates, upon receipt OF orders.
Physicians practices sold accommodating terms
Through the recommendation OF this agency, physi-
clans lawyers clergymen and teachers obtain the
honOrs OF all the universities In the United States such
the degrees of A. NJ, A. b., NJ d. d. d. g., ID. d. LIZ d.,
&c.
For additional particulars, address
A.. j. HALE, N. d., 2li Jacoby ST., Philadelphia.
The additional particulars ascertained by
addressing this gentleman "a DR.. John Bu-
chanan, who has of late succeeded him as
Collegiate Agent and Dean Of the Faculty.,
were always to the effect that diploma could
be obtained from the Philadelphia Univer-
" sity" at a price commensurate with the kind
of honor which it conferred. good, plain,
serviceable Doctor of Medicine, for instance,
could be turned out for $50 or less, and Doc
tor of Dental Surgery would come still
cheaper. Ii was not necessary to attend lee
lures or pass an examination, or even make a
personal application for degrees. Mr.. Hale
would make a ID. ID. out OF boy Of ten, and
"a Doctor of Civil and Common Law out of an
idiot who could neither read nor write, pro-
vided they paid the money on delivery. The
coveted parchment, signed and sealed, and

Dr. Franklin used to wish that he might after a
good long nap, live tie last half of his allotted
years some time in tLo Nineteenth Century. His
equanmity, the greatest with which great man
was over endowed, might be little disturbed if he
should wake up just now in Boston. He left by will
small sum of money, the income of which was to
be lent to young married artifcers" This has
been invested and reinvested. until it now amounts
to more than Sl500O0 but young married artiicer
has ever been favored with farthing of it, 1t il
now proposed to lend it in small sums to persons OF
moderate means to enable them to secure neat and
comfortable homes in the vicinity of the City OF
Boston.

Once more we hear of the great recluse, Mr.. Andy

cal Skill and Industry"-not, We believe, simply
upon the Art of Tailoring, but upon all Arts and
Sciences including probably, tho Mystery of Disil-
lation We have said that the address would be
given on the 27th-perhaps it would have been safer
to say "begnnng on the 9th and ending whenever
the Lord pleases.r Mr. Johnsons rhetorical style is
of that involuted OF convoluted kind which makes
going on a great deal easier than stopping; and,
before beginning his Nashville labor, he should
engage sohe kind friend to remove him forcibly

twenty four hours.

TIE UNION-THE STATES.


Mr. Justice Clifford, in pronOuncing at Cir
cult the opinion which seems to have guided
the Supreme Court in holding the Federal Gov
ernment incompetent to tax the income de-
rived from q State Office, said:
"Counes and other municipal corporations were Gre
acd by the stes but The States pere not created 6y NE
United Saies THE States erSted as Independent 500
ereignties epen before the Union ~as formed"
THE TRIBUNE objected that such was not the
fact-that it could at most be maintained that
a minority-tO wit, tbirteen-of the States an
tedated the Union, while large majOrity-to
wit, twenty -four-Of them were visibly, his
torically incontestably, called into being by the
Union. Most of these were made out of terri
tory purchased with the money or conquered
by the arms Of the Union, cut up into special
Territories at its discretion, and admitted into
the Union as States whenever it (not they
Judged best. If Territory recOnstructs itself
into a State, it submits its Constitution to
Congress and asks admission. IL Congress
says "No; you are not yet strong enough in
population and wealth." it sinks back, not
into State ont of the Union, but Territory
belonging to the Union and subject to its gov
erment and disposal
These are facts beyond dispute, and they
are not subverted by Judge Clitford's ignoring
or defying them.

1t Is well understood in photographed circles
that admirers of rare books, however high minded
and otherwise conscientious these Sdrdnts may be,
will steal choice volumes Even the librarian OF
the Imperial Library of Russia, DR.. Alloys Pchler,
has just been caught carrying off tho treasures con-
fded TO his care. Books had been for long time
disappearing and cloaks were forbidden in the
apartments; but an exception to this rule being
made on account of his i'll health, in favor of the
Doctor he was caught carrying off ponderous
folio under his raiment. Forthwith his house was
searched and not less than GOO0 volumes stolen from
the library were found there, with MSS. in great
numbers. The books have been restored and the
Doctor ordered to leave the country. He may
esteem himself lucky for in the old Russian days he
would either have been kneuted to death or sent off
to Siberia with not single book to solace his ban

1t is clear that they dc not live on the Graham
system in the Philadelphia Alms-Hous Mr. Parker,

There are six wards in the hospital of the house. and
they use 1S9 pounds of meat daily for beeftea alone

is evident either that the beeftea must be uncon-

tfc principles So the mems medical department
gets 48 quarts of milk daily. The supplies remain
the same, no matter how few may be the number OF
potients. Then the liquor bills for the hospital
amount to about one-half the cost of all the pro-

large and expensive. One patient was found with
ten eggs in his table-drawer and many others had

In Difference to this camor, Ine Ieoon
struction of most OF the disorganizeo o,'''cS

of tbe Whites were intensely hosVhe W

The LEGISLATURES summoned by acting
President Johnson at once began to wreak
uron those Blacks their spite against the
LOYALTY and valor which had Overthrown their
Confederacy. They made it plain that tho
Blacks must be enfranchiscd, or their freedom
would prove snare and a curse, and that
this mnst be done before the States were re-
stored to self government and readmltted to

But if there be those who hold Ignorance
qualification for political franchises, whether
in South Carolina or New York, TIE TRIBUNE
decidedly disagYees with them. 1t holds that
such voting as we now average in the lower
Wards of this City, and which is pretty fairly
parallclod in the Sea Islands and in many OF
the lower Counties of South Carolina, never
did and mover can result IN wise, capable
provident frugal rule. We believe that gross
frauds at elections have been perpetratec
there az here; and we insist that the necessary
and excellent act of Congress which guards
AGAINST such frauds be invoked, and If noed DC
strengthened, to protect the constitutions
rights of Conservatives in Carolina as well az
Republicans in this City.
South Carolina has been misgOvcrncd and
plundered in the abused name OF Repubii-
canism, as this City has under the disgraced
banner of Democracy. The rObbenes may
have been more Hagrant here, but the
poverty is far greater there; so that Sloe,oo(
stolen there is more widely and deeply fell
than 81 100000 stolen here. But there must
be searching and stringent reform in either
case though Ku-Klux Outrages will never
| secure it, The first step toward the corTectloa
| of q wrong is its faithful and thorough expo
sure, so that good men irrespective OF party
shall clearly and fully comprehend it. TO this
! end many agencies are now powerfully con
tributing; and one of these, We believe and
trust, is The TRIBUNE.
New-York tribune., 1871-05-03

1t does not seem to have ever occurred to
the auarrymen con strike" in the upper part
of the city that their conduct in compelling
Others to stop work and join in their demands
IS construed by the law as riotous, and pun
ished with imprisonment. When asserting
their undeniable right to better their own
condition - though we cannot cOncede that
that end is attained by strikes"-they should
not forget that the inherent night exists IN
others to work for any terms they can get or
which they agree upon. This is principle
whose equity strikers" generally deny, OF at
least disregard and when they do so in vio-
lent demonstrations such as those INDUCED in
by the quarrymen, it is proper that the police
should dsperse or arrest them.
