Tde Democrats are taking great credit to them selves for having nominated upon their local ticket two or three officers, who were on the Union eide daring the war. If this were meant as an Indication of aympathy with the cam for which our Union soldiers fought, or of respect for these men as soldiers, there might be some ground for parading the fact before the world. ' But, notoriously, it is not. Everybody knows that the Domooratio leaders in this State were Utterly opposed to the war; that their sympa thies were with those who fought on the Rebel Bide; and that they did then, and have con tinued to do since, all that they could to de grade that great struggle in the eyes of the world, and to rob it of all its glory. There is nothing that these leaders, in their hearts, more thoroughly despise and execrate than the true Union volunteer soldier. They be lieve him to have been, what they used to de light to call him, a "Lincoln hireling;" they look upon him as having been the voluntary instrument in oppressing and degrading the Rebels, and as having waged war against a just cause. In their eyes the South meaning by that term not the people, but the aristo cracy that lorded it over the South were oppressed, and did right in going to war. They look upon Lee, and Johnson, and Beau regard, Instead of Qrant, and Sheridan, and Sherman, as the true heroes of the late strug gle. At the present time their sympathies are avowedly with Andrew Johnson and his Cop perhead advisers, in their efforts to perseoute and degrade some of the noblest and bravest men that the war produoed. The nomination, therefore, of a few officers upon the Demooratio ticket in this city, will Instantly be recognized by every true Union toldier as a mere desire to 'obtain votes for a bad cause. It is an attempt to entrap honest men into giving their votes in support of An drew Johnson and his insane and wioked policy. The very platform upon which these officers are running endorses Andrew John son's administration. Do our Union soldiers desire to say that Johnson is right, and that Grant is wrong f that the gallant Sheridan deserved to be removed from the command which he had so honored f or that Sickles should have been made the victim of Presiden tial perseoution and malice f And yet this is what they are asked to say, in order that a few chronio offioe-seekers may get the snug berths for which they have long been hankering. This device canflojauttoead. The Demo cratic parjfljjfaii jg the same party that la3W2r attempted to defeat the gallant Union T""""S5Tdier, General Geary, and to elect in his stead the Copperhead Clymer. It is the same party that declared the glorious struggle in which our Union soldiers were engaged a fail ure; the same party that deprived them of their votes when In the field; the same party that sought to cripple them by discouraging enlistments and opposing the draft; and the . same party that noto seeks to defraud the nation of the just fruits of our victories in the field. The greed of office-holding may induoe some officers to become the standard bearers of this party, but the masses of the Union sol diers will be seduced by no such trick of the enemy. Mr. Johnson Planning forthe Succession. Thb hint has been thrown out in various quar ters that Mr. Johnson will probably be the candidate of the Democracy in the next Presi dential campaign.' The officious endorsement of his recent foolish and unpatriotic aots by the late Democratio Convention of this city lends plausibility to the view. The faot that Mr. , Johnson could and would wield the patronage of the Government in favor of his own election, makes .him in some respects an available can didate for the Democracy. It is true he has taken occasion to repeatedly disclaim, in the most positive manner, any intention of being a candidate, bat that must pass with a good many other things he has said, and failed to adhere to, in the past. There is no doubt he would be glad to be a candidate, especially if he had the slightest hope of an eleotion. His present elevation to the Presidency was not the work of the people. He is pain fully oonsoious of that fact. lie knows that he has betrayed the party that elected him, and he would be gratified beyond measure with a popular endorsement of his course. He has of late thrown himself into the hands of Demooratio advisers. Jerry Black, Fernando Wood, Tom Florenoe, and the same crew of oorrupt politicians gene rally who clustered around Buchanan's Administration, are now the daily habitue's of the White House. The whole power of the Government is to be felt in controlling the elections this fall. Should the Domoorats $uooeed in a few of these, Mr. Johnson will have claims on that party which it can ' hardly ignore. . He Is doubtless looking for the nomination, and it is not at all unlikely that he may get it. One thing that will tell in hiS favor is the scarcity of available, caadi- 'dates in the ranks of the Demeoracy. Mo Clellan la ,the only military man that they could now think of running, and he would have far leBS strength than he had in 18(i4.

Jerry Black is doubtless the ablest ef the lot, but he TIIK DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, MONDAY, Stands no more chance of a nomination thau he would, if nominated, of an eleotion. So, on the whole, we think Mr. Johnson's chances for the Democratic nomination are pretty fair. The rrcfiiilent's Ainnoty Proclama tion, and Its Eilccts. Tub Amnesty Proclamation of the President reminds us vividly of that curious animal known as the Ant-eater, which has the remark able physical formation of a length of tongue which, in proportion to the body, is about as a foot to an inch. The preambles to the procla mation, when compared with the document proper, do not, hewever, approximate as closoly as the physique of the Ant-eater. We have ten 'Whereases," and but ouo small "Resolved," and the final declaration is utterly impotent to effect the object which is in tended. It is seldom that the verbiage of the President carries him to such extrome lengths as it has in the last State document, for really the effort is as good as a political manual, and excels McPhersou's in giving a history of all the events of tho war. The applicability of the facts quoted has nothing to do with their selection or rejection. Thus, military rule in the South is declared to be "dangerous to liberty," and a few medita. tive remarks on the evil effects of oppression, and a "retaliatory or vindictive polioy," are thrown in; but neither of these interesting expressions of the Executive mind have even the most distant connection with the subject matter for we presume that Mr. Johnson can scarcely believe that the evils complained of can be remedied by his pronunciamiento. But the opportunity could not be allowed to pass, and we have the reflections of the Presidential intellect on the subjeot of rebellions in history, and of course we will treat them with the deference which their souroe demands. Whatever may be the form, the object to be attained has been attempted, so far as the will of Mn. Johnson can extend; and it is well for us to look at the practical effect of the doou ment, and also at the attitude in which the President puts himself by issuing it. So far as the result to be achioved is concernod, the proclamation will fall powerless. Its practioal effect will be entirely null aud void. Even if it could work all the results intended, it would only reassure the Rebels in the possession of their property, and prevent their arrest in the future. And. as their property is not threat ened, and their lives not in the least danger, it will have no appreciable effect . It might, if it was lawful, act as a bar to a suit in the future; but then, as no suit is threatened, we do not think that much value can be attached to it. So far as the right of suffrage is concerned, it will be perfeot waste paper. The law of Con gress directs the registers to admit to registra tion only certain persons, and among the qualifications necessary is that they shall not have committed certain crimes against the United States. The pardon of these crimes does not blot them out. They remain still crimes in fact, and until the qualifi cations for registration are changed by law, so long will they be excluded from the right of suffrage. In order, however, that no doubt whatever could arise, and that the law might not be evaded by the Executive, the last clause of the Supplemental Reoonstriiotion bill distinctly states "that no person shall at any time be entitled to be registered or to vote by reason of any Executive pardon or amnesty for any act or thing which, without such par don or amnesty, would disqualify him from registration or voting" so that even if the right of the President to issue such a proclamation was unquestioned, the effect would not delay reconstruction. But it is a nice question whether the Executive has any such right. True, the preamble cites instances in which that right was exercised, but then it was done, not under a provision of the Constitution, but under a law of Congress which especially authorized the Executive to grant such an amnesty. This law, passed July 17, 1862, was repealed Deoember 3, 18GG so that,' whatever right might have been vested and was exercised under it, ceased to be within the control of the President nearly a year ago. So Mr. John son's last effort is based solely on the consti tutional provision, and is without precedent in the history of our land. All its predecessors have been under a Congressional law, and the right of the present manifesto rests on grounds entirely distinct from any other. Now the Constitution Article 2, section 3 gives the President "power to grant reprieves and par dons for offenses against the United States, except in cases of impeaohment." What, then, is a pardon, and under what circum stances can it be efficacious ? A pardon is de fined as a "remission of a fault or crime." In order, therefore, to make a pardon effective there must be a criminal. There can be no forgiveness until a fault is commuted, and the only way in which a man can be known as a criminal is when he has been convicted by a legal tribunal of the offense. Until conviction every man is presumed to be innocent, and to an innocent man a pardon cannot apply. Therefore, the only persons pardoned by Mr. Johnson's proclamation, had he the right to issue it, would be those Rebels who have been tried and convicted of treason, and as none have been tried, the scope of the proclamation is limited. This view of the subjeot was held by Chief Justice Chase in a recent decision, in which he stated that there were no traitors in the laud. But a pardon and an amnesty differ so widely that it is clear that the power to grant the former does not carry with it a power to grant the latter. , One frees a orlm iual after conviction and is applicable in Any particular case. The other releases a number without oonviotfon, purges a crime from them before they are known to have committed it, aui in applied to a mass collectively. Under the Constitution the President can grant pardons, but it requires a special law of Congress to authorize him to grant an amnesty, aud that law was repealed last Deoember. The effort of the President, therefore, is really nothing, but the animus which prompted it remains the same. It is a desperate attempt to override Congress, and usurp all power in .one hand. The spirit whloh dictated it would lead to an autocracy if carried out. It is the maddest and most daring attempt yet made, and will change many of those hereto fore opposed to impeachment into its sup porters. The conversion of public opinion in favor of this desperate remedy is not rapid, but, as "Poor Mo" said, in the "Flying Scud:" "It's slow, but O Lud I it's so sure 1" The Happy Family. We notice that a meeting of the Managers of the National Asylum for Disabled Volunteers, held on Saturday in Washington, was attended by President Johnson, General Grant, and General Butler. There's elements which ought to mix. Johnson and Grant have had a per sonal difficulty. Johnson and Butler are at swords' points, and the deadliest foes; and Grant and Butler hate each other with all the intensity of military feuds, the "bottling up" being, doubtless, in the mind of each. We do not know how the Managers kept the peace, but if there was not a difference of opinion, we may well anticipate the millennium, wheu the lion and the lamb will lie down together! though we must Bay that in the present oase we do not know which could be well called a lamb. But, as Captain Cuttle says, "there's a pretty kettle of fish." "Savb Mb from Mr Friends." The New York Herald to-day acts the part of a base ingrate. After having got the Grant corres pondence from the President and been petted by him, it to-day comes out in a leader and calls on him to resign. We publish the article elsewhere. This is a little too much. To leave the Executive Chamber, and trust to that "many-headed monster thing," is a feat which we fear Mr. Johnson will not dare to undertake. For once we agree with the Iltrald. Let Mr. Johnson resign, let him take the flood at its height. Let him try to be returned to the Executive Chamber, and all we can say is, that we hope he may enjoy it better than he does, wheu he gets there. But we fear that the advice of his friend Bennett will not be adopted. We think it unkind in James Gordon to thus laugh at his admirer; but the old adage is exemplified of "Saving one from his friends." Bennett plays well the part of Job's comforter. Schools fob ihb Ionobint. We have re ceived a pamphlet report of the working of some tbirly schools in the District ot Colum bia, which are beiuf? used for the education of tbe Ignorant people ot the Dis trict. They are under the cbare.? of Rev. Dr. E. Turnej, aud ho come3 to our public tor aid with the highest recommendation. Under Dr. Tuiney's care, without the support of any asso ciation,, these schools have grown up and nourished. Nowhere in the land are they more needed. The blacks are about to exercise the light of suffrage, and it will be to these very scholars that the public will look to see whether or not tbi new right will be properly used. The cause is a worthy one, and we hope it will receive the generous support of our generous people. Tbe address of the Doctor Is Twenty secoiid ond I streets, Washington. We would ask, even in view of the many charities now furnished by our leaders: Who will contri bute the means for executing this single day's labor? Who will supply the tabic of these de voted educational missionaries with food lor a single week ? Who will provide for the con tinued instruction of one of them for a single year? Who will aid, as occasion demands, in making provision for the natural necessities of a work so direct aud practical in its operation, so immediate in its results, and so extensive in the good which is being accomplished f The Free Schools of Illinois. The lxth biennial report of the Superintendent of Public Instruction of the State of Illinois, for the years 18C5 and 18C6, has been Issued. It is, in some respect?, one of the most interesting documents that has been published by that State. We learn lrom it that 014,659 scholars were reported in all of the common schools of the State for the year ending September 30, 18G6. These were under the tuition of 6825 male and 10,454 female teachers. The number of school-houses re ported is 9753, an increase of 689 over the pre vious year. The two-mill school tax yielded $7f:0,000. This tax for the paBt eleven years has ! amounted to 7,493,74-51; in addition to which upwards of $13,000,000 has been raised for school purposes by local taxation. The Con gressional lund grant tor the promotion of agri cultural and scientific education gives to the State of Illinois about tive hunUrsd thousand acres of land. The Weather in Minnesota. The wheat harvest beean in Minnesota on the 12th of August. As there was au unusually large and good crop, tbe weather was watched with the most interne Interest. A few wet days would have damaged the State to' the amount of mil lions of dollars; but the weather was propitious, and the crop has been safely gathered. The mean temperature of the niouih of August, 68 30 degrees, was exceeded in only two instances in the post nine years, aud nearly all the days were clear. The mean leoipenUure of the summer at St. Paul was 68-24 degrees, a bhrhpr mean than bas been known there for nine years. The fall o' wiiret in Au8ut was only 2'32 inches, and for f'pIl ""tbs of 'he present year only 2S-15 inches. The weather has been' warm, and very much drvcr than in this latitude. Mb.
