66 CAN DO NO WRONG.
Sitewsrhanz wrote "There's a divinity doth
hedge a King."- No doubt, he derived his
•idea from the unwritten law of nations, that
"a King can do no wrong." This, .if taken
politically, may be true to a certain extent.
It is hot, and it cannot be altogether true,
even In that" sense, as England and France
practically showed—by the trial and execu
tion of CIIARLES the First and Louts the
Eighteenth.
The idea is that reigning royalty governs
but does not rule=that it is nothing, consti
tutionally, but the month Piece and the band
of the Ministry—that it is a King's advisers
who should be bold "responsible for what
they make their nominal master do. It
is their policy, not his, that governs the King
dom. They decide on the measures, and he
has to all sw them to,be. executed in hisnamo.
If he disapprove of any measure, his Ministry
resign of ice,:but his own idea has to be car
ried out by some responsible ,party. Of
course, where the Government is absolute, as
in Russia and France, where Ataxerenzn
supervise every thing, provide for
, every thing, organize every thing, -and do
I precisely- as they desire, the ruler, not the
nominal Ministry, would' be the responsible
party., In 1880, when °Halms X pro
fessed to , govern France under the char
ter, when the Revolution of July broke
.out, and the incapable monarch took to flight,
Frarice'held Prince POLIGN . AO, M. PETRONNET,
'and the rest of the Cabinet Ministers, ,as the
:accountable parties for misgovernment, tried
!them for high treason, and sentenced them to
perpetnal imprisonment in the prison -fortress
pf Ram. They, not their master, were held le
gaily responsible, and treated accordingly.
Azzaarmss of Russia, and NAPOLEON of
France, rule with absolute'power,and therefore
f circumstances overturned these monarchs,
their Ministers, who are little more than re
cording Secretaries, would not be accounta
ble.
In point of tact, if the British Monarchy be
n under consideration, Queen VICTORIA ,
.as only the semblance of power. It is very
ethat honors, dignities, emoluments, acts of
.nrilshment and of, grace, appointments, pre.
quanta, and all which are supposed to in&
ate regal power, run in her name. Every one
f these acts nominally emanates from "Her
Most Gracious Majesty, VICTORIA, by the
race of God, Queen ,of Great Britain and
/eland, Defenders
s of the Faith," , and so
ortb. But she - Can scarcely do any thing
.1 her .own free will—not even , such a
rifle as dis Charging a 'Lord-in-Waiting,
.r a Lady of the Bed Chamber, can the
seen db of her own - accord. These are
. " appoiritments, Ministerial loaves
nd fishes, With which Royalty -must not
nterferd. If she want to raise any well
eserving or favorite subject ore in the Peer,
It cannot be done waken*. permission
: rioted by her Prime Minister.'" If there be a
vacant clerkship -of $4OO, in. any public de
. ar*ent, her nomination to it would be use

much more out of my private•fortune. There.;
forej insist on enjoying the full patronage of
my loflice, to provide' for my connexions, and
to reward my supporter's. The chance is, that,
on a vacancy, if the Queen were to intimate
her desire that ;rich or such a person should be
,appointed, her Minister would express his re
gret at being compelled to refuse, but circum
stances rendered it necessary to appoint
another person. The Queen knows this sys
tem so well, that she does not ask for any such
favors. ,
Notwithstanding our awn republican form
of Goiernmept, the President of the
United States positively exercises more
power, by a great deal, than the Queen
of England does. It is he who performs
all the thnetions of Government, such
as are delegated to the Prime Minister in
England, with infinitely more actual power—
namely, the power of dismissing from office as
many persons as ho pleases, without any bad
deserving on their part, any harm done, any
thing wrongly thought of. With the exception
of some flay or sixty changes, on the break-up
of an Administration, every public appoint
ment in England is held w quamdiu bone so
gesseret"—so long as be conducts himself
properly—anl neither caprice, power, nor
tyranny can turn a Government employee out
of office, so long as he properly performs its
duties. If the most lowly-salaried Government
clerk wore dismissed, by arbitrary power,
without his actual misconduct in office, it
would immediately become a subject of Parlia
mentary inquiry and censure, and the chance
is that the Minister who had done this wrong
to the individual would himself have to resign.
Therefore, when the Earl of Ewa:, at Wash
ington, declared that w after all, the President
of America was but a fec-simile of the Eng
lishfremier," he was not quite correct, as the
President can dismiss without cause, while the
Premier cannot. We wonder when it will
become a fixed constitutional maxim with
us, that the President can do no wrong ?
We venture to surmise that our ex-clerical
friend, the remarkable isnu G., (commonly
called TONES,) would hilly endorse that, during
the present reign, with only one exception,
and that in the culinary line. For example,
he would hold the getting only a middling din
' ner at the White House to be an unpardona
ble Presidential offence.
It would be a nice constitutional point, even
for a Philadelphia lawyer to decide what, per
aonal violation of the law would bring a king
under the; ban of the law, of which he is pre
sumed to be the fountain. Wo recollect
one peculiar case,—that of CURISTIANA,
Queen of Sweden, who, after her abdi
cation, bad MONALDESCIII, her equerry,
murdered at her residence in Paris, before
her own eyes. Ho was an Italian, and not
her subject, though in her service. This foul
deed occurred in one of the palaces of Louis
XIV, and the King remonstrated—but she
pleaded her royal right, even though she had
resigned the crown, to act with queenly power
of life and death in her own house, and the
end was that she was allowed to leave Paris
without any punishment for what really was a
foul assassination.
We have been led into the considera
tion of this subject by seeing it stated
in a foreign journal that WILLIAM In . ,
King of Holland, was about resigning his
crown in Nvor •of his son. The journals do
not mention why he should do this, but lice
are informed that the theta are as follow
His Majesty is now 41 years old, and married
the Princess SoPura of Wurtemburg, at the
age of 22. He has been a bad husband—so
bad, indeed, that ho oven gave apartments to
a favorite, in the same palace with his wife.
Suspicious that his favorite was frail as she
was fhir, he went into her chamber nnexpvct
edly, and found her enjoying the society of
one of his nobles, who also held rank in the
Dutch army. Further, it is reported that, in
a sudden paroxysm of rage and jealousy,
the King drew his sword and plunged it in the
heart of his more favored rival. Since that
period, It is said that the Queen has been
wholly seprrated from him, and that the anger
of the people as well as of the nobility, on ac
count of his foul deed, has culminated to that
point where, to prevent being.deposed; he has
consented to abdicate. In Holland, it would
seem, there is an idea that the King can do
wrong.
All tho Republican Congressional Conven
tions in Indiana for this year have been hold. The
Indianapolis Journal says " every Republioan
eleoted in 1856 has been renominated."
A Dinner in the Harem.
We - extract the following article from advanced
etiolate of Mrs. Hornhy's piquant and interesting
work on Constantinople—" In and about Stam
boul." It will bo issued in a few days in elegant
style by Messrs. James Mallen dr. Sons, of this
oity ;,
"At the entrance of the dining-room stood two
Arab slaves, richly attired. To each lady, as he
entered, one of these held a beautiful silver bowl,
while the other poured roaewater over her hands
from a vase of the same richly-ohased material.
Two little slave-girls 'presented 'flee napkins, the
ends embroidered in gold, on Which me each shook
the rosewater from our Angers. The dining-room
Was a most luxurious apartment, olosely latticed,
for it looked into the streets -of Stamboul, but
oheerful, and rich In crimson- divans and carved
and painted flowers on walls and ceiling. All had
been done to make the cage bearable. Rica Pa
she's harem is, I am told, one of the meet "fash
ionable," whioh accounted for seeing a European
table, adorned-wilti a handsome centre-piece and
four beautiful vases of flowers and fruit, after the
French fashion. The dinner service was of rare
and beautiful china ;• the elver knives mid forks
were extremely handsome; the serwettedelicately
fine ; the flowers exquisitely arranged, and min
gled with oranges and lemons, in the Eastern
fashion; the 'slaves were - standing round, three
or four deep, awaiting-our slightest sign,: we felt
still more in ,the- land of dreams. First of all,
they placed to each guest a sparkling water-bottle
and glass. Then a fine china plate Containing a
flat roll of a kind of rye broad, called semeet,
quite • new and - , warm, and c,ovored.witka small
seed, which, not being a canary or a linnet, I ob
jected to: - Theft seep was served—a great novelty
in a harem :.it- was most excellent—chicken and
vermicelli. Theneame a dish of pilipaf, of chicken
and rice,"done brown. I sat next to the chief-wife,
on her - right hand; as the save • lield.the dish,
she pointed out the liken pleoehibegglng me to
take them. The -fair Circassian sat o pposite to
me., I was'eurious to see if'they really teemed to
like the modern innovation of- knives and forks.
For the first few-minutes they used them—evi
dently to do as we did ; but the Circassian beauty,
failing to 'secure the particular piece of chicken
she coveted, with • a troublesome fork: and spoon,
threw those incompetent auxiliaries down, and
grubbed successfully, and to her entire satisfao
tion, with her fingers. 'She then iodised at me and -
laughed, and showed , me how to taktia,pleee,of
bread between my, Angela:, b egging us to eat ei la
novae, which - they were- all - - doing themselves,'
fast and furious;-and" to - pietism tlatrin,‘we,aeliord
ingly picked a few chicken bones with our Angers.
We had all three been . 'enehanted 'with the, fair
Circassian, as I have told you-4ith her beauty,
her winning, yet - lofty, manners, and exquieitis
grace; we had seen her smoke, and , admired her
still ; we, had even fergivert. her for 'loving the
'barbaron noi s e s in the concert of made ;" : brit
to see her lick her fingers up to the last joint after
each dish—to see her lick her favorite tortoise
shell spoon bright, after' truocettsite and never-to- •
be-believed enorsionsplatefuls of sweet 'pancaked,
daubed with honey, ami tarts; too luscious for the
Knave of Hearts—this was too much for - Venus
herself to have dodo with imtinnity; we were
perfectly disenchanted long before the feast was
over. The rest were not so bad, (excepting Mad.
Liston, who might as well have had a trough at
once ;) but we began to feel rather sick after
the first few dishes were despatched ; and the ani
mal passions of some of the ladies began to be
roused by their favorite sweets and jellies, which
*they tore to -.pieces with their Angers, and threw
down their, throats in large lumps. The jester
waited at table, presenting the principal dishes
with jokes which caused bursts of laughter from
the ladies and.the slaves in attendance, who seem
perfectly at home, and on very free and easy terms
with their mietresses, notwithstanding their com
plete submission to them.. The- jester was a wild
and most extraordinary-looking woman, with 8:12,
immensity of broad humor and drollery in her
boa. We thought It quite as well that we could
not understand the jokes at which the fair Circas
sian, between the intervals of licking her fingers
and spoon, and' popping titbits on our plates,
laughed so complacently, and which sometimes
obliged the Arabs and eunuchs at the door to dive
under the arras to conceal their uncontrollable fits
of mirth."

assuredly not. Therefore, let our business men

WASHINGTON, ALlglig 24, 1858.
In your issue of yesterday you touch upon the
purchase of Scotch iron for the water-pipes in this
city, and throw the blame upon those upon whom
it 'should properly rest—the Representatives in
Congress. For weeks past many of the papers
have teemed with articles attributing fault in this
respect to the Superintendent of the Aqueduct
Coustruotion—some ignorantly; others, not at a
very great distance, and who should know better,
from apparent. motives of speculative interest. I
was glad, therefore, to see so well-informed and
prominent a sheetas The Press setting public sen
timent right in this respect.
There is no law (unless it bo in relation to some
special article) requiring that public supplies shall
be of domestio manufacture., The nearest ap
proximation to this manifestly , wise policy that
oanbe made by any public office, in advertising for
proposals to furnish Government with supplies, is
to say that it is desirable that the articles should
bo of domestic manufaoture. Tho absence of
posi
tive statute, and the established rule for accepting
proposals—viz : those of the lowest responsible
bidder—would, it Is thought, render the decision
of a Government officer illegal, that discriminated
between the rights of two classes of our Minns,
the manufacturers and the importers, to the pre
judice of either.
Without entering into the discussion of free
trade or a protective tariff, may it not be safely
adopted as a sound, national policy, that all Gov
ernment supplies should be procured or made at
home when it' is possible to do so, even though
the same article may be procured more cheaply
abroad ? Would there not be sufficient competi
tion among our own people to prevent anything
like a fraudulent speculation on the Government?
And is it not the duty of Government, in a com
mon-sense point of view, to foster, so far as its
own wants are, concerned. the resources whence
those needs may be supplied, that In exigency we
may be above the pressure of war or foreign in
fluences ? If this be correct reasoning, and Con
gress being the only power that can supply the
remedy, the people must look to is themselves
that their Representatives fulfil their wishes. W.

Yesterday afternoton was the regular day for holding
the meetings of Councils. &quorum was present, at
three o'clock, but the Democratic members mainly de.
evrted the Chamber a few minutes afterwards. The
reason for this step was an understanding that the'corU ,
mittee to contest the seat of George Williams, member
from the Twentieth ward, was about to report that his
election was the result of fraud. '

At four o'elook the roll was called, and with the fol

Mr. Onyler eat in his seat, but refused to answer to
his name.
There beim, therefore, but twelve members officially
present. no quorum existed. • -
Mr. Commas stated that there was very important
husinees to be transacted. 'Various communisations
had been sent to the chamber from the Watering De
partment.

thetvery important businees awaits the cotton of ithis

Department to take into consideration, and' unless an
appropriation is made, the works will, be greatly em
barrassed, it not partially stopped. There wails quorum
in this chamber, sir, some time ago, but as fast as I
could obtain that quotnne, the marchers would go out
again.
Mr. Leidy. I would ask, Mr. Chairman, whether a
member (referring to Mr. Copier, who refined answer
ing to his name) has a right to remain silent in his seat,
or if he does so, whether he cannot be included in the
roll. and a quorum thus obtained.
The President. The Chair clarinet take cognizance of
any gentleman, as officially present, until he answer to
his name.
Mr. Mclntyre If the motion is in order, I move that
the sergeant-at-arms request absent members to come
from the ante-room into the chamber.
The President. We have no sergeant-at-arms. We
have a messenger, who can invite members to take the it
seats, if he can find them.
Twenty minutes meanwhile •elmiled. Mr. Oarmtnan
said : It is now obvious that no quorum con be ob
tained, as Mr. Cuyier dill sits in his seat, and will not
answer to hie name. I suppose that some members
are waiting In hope of making a compromise with , the
committee. This cannot be done. The committee
will repudiate anything in the form of a compromise.
I am not on that commute, but the gentlemen com
posing it will net sacrifice principle. That report
will be mode at some time or other, and it may's well
be made now as then. Besides this, we have a com.
municstion from the Chief Engineer of the Watering
Department, showing that. unless an appropriation Is
made at once, the city will lose a very large sum of
money through sheer neglect, And we also have s
communication from the Chief Ooramissiener of High
ways notifying the Chamber that Girard avenue bridge
is in danger of falling into the Schuylkill, and that ac-
Den is at once needed. The Aet of Assembly in the
matter is so strict that a public officer cannot spend
money, except by direct appropriation. We have

DISPUTE ABOUT A Cow—A DOUBLE TDENTITI
OATION.—A curious ease relative to the identifica
tion of a cow is troubling one of our magistrates.
It seams that about a month ago Attorney Raton,
who has a suburban residence, lost his cow. About
the same time an Irishman named Finn sold a cow
to a dairyman named Bruner, who resides near
this
city. in Some months after, Eaton's SODS saw
cow Bruuer's pasture, and identified her as
the long-lost one, and, without further ado, drove
her home. The entire family identified the cow
upon her return, and Eaton retained her. Bruner
attempted to replevin the animal, bye suit brought
before Esquire Joseph, of Milloreek township. Tho
evidence produced in the case induced the magic.
trate to decide in Eaton's favor. Bruner, having
thus lost the cow, entered suit 'before Esquire
Bowekamp against Finn for the recovery of the
money paid for the cow.
The case was tried on Saturday. Finn brought
in a number of witnesses from Warren county, who
identified the cow as one born and raised in their
locality, and who testified as toher ownership from
the time of her birth up to her purchase by Finn,
a short time previous to his selling her to Bruner.
On the other hand, an abundance of testimony was
adduced to prove that the cow in question was
Eaten's, and had never been in Warren - county !
The magistrate seems to be much punted as to his
decision, and has reserved the case. for fall con
sideration.—Cincinnati Timm;
