Philadelphia Cor reapoodeace. Fxidat, Fxn. 8tb, 186T. 1 Dxax Wavx.— Sloce my last we bare ' bad a charming succession of spring- 1 like day*. Under tbe geaial raya of ' lb* aoa, tb* ice aod snow and slosh hate gradually departed, once more , rraioring tbe street* to tbeir priatioe , purity. The promtaadea have been crowded, aod after onr long blockade i the city bears a holiday aspect. By- i the-way, neither oar 8lata Ljgislstore ' iter oor city councils bsve ts yet passed s law forbidding tbe tailing 'of tbe ■trout* by tb* railway companies. — ' Americana always jump at conclusion*. Somvbady asserted tbat the railway ' companies were public extortionists, , void of accommodation, and bent on i extracting thn^ last penny, oven if tbe 1 same bad but an io stool back served as a covering far a dead man's eye*. 1 Furthermore that sailing the street* ' waa an ootrsge, injurious to tbe pubbeaitb, tbe public'* boots and tbe , public comfort. Instantly everybody , took op tbe cry. As io days past it i waa "dawn witb tbe papiata I" ao for a ■ while it waa "down witb tbe railroad < maoapolista 1" Oaa branch of the leg- ' isLiure passes a law forbidding tbe ' towing of tb* salt in all large cilia*. ' One branch of tbe city council peases j the same law in reference to Philadelphia. The other branch of the lagis , iature and the other broach af coon- , cilt refute to coacor, and consequently ' both meaaores are for tba pretest lost. ■ On the other hand, the railroad com- 1 paniet assert tbet tbey would be glad ' to be rid of sprinkling the tricks ; that ' the salt is expsasive and tbey loso | money thereby. But if the enow is n't promptly dissolved, the cars wonld - to stop running for a day or two, ■ while it is shovsled away, and tbat i would raise u greater hue and cry than 1 ever. Tbe cure would be- worse than 1 the remedy. Tbe city journals are 1 j already tired ef discoiting the subject, I and the thin-skinned public are becoming qoiet for want of fortber stimulus I The trntb of tbe whole metter is just ' tbla : Salting tha streets ruined tbe ' Weighing, and consequently prevented '< few rich men from enjoying thai pleasure. Aa only one man in about ( five hundred ia this city owaa a aleigh, , you may wonder why they were ins- , | hustaised in their somewhat selfish de- ■ j in snd. The sleigh owners are the c I money ownere, trgo, tbe result. Those 1 who have to jauroey twice a day from ' | Richmond to 8oothwerk want the 1 j streets salted so tbat the cart may run. j Tbe drivers of private carriage*, drays r ■ and bark* and furniture care, want tbe t tilt, to that tbey may make bread by t making headway with their hardens. < Tb* medical profession to a man naaeri ' tbat tbar* la nothing detrimental to ' l* lb* poblie health in tha ate of etlt. ' Dr. B. Howard Rand, one of the le»d- c

•n of tbe profession, and Professor of Chemistry in tbe Jefferson Medical Callage, write* a letter to the Evening Telegraph, favoring tbe nt* of salt. So tbe matter rests, and so I drop tbe saline (object. Last night I dropped In at tb* Assembly Buildings, wbtre tbe Bancroft Literary Society were bavinftbeir annual public matting.
