' ditiohe natune fuit subditus servituti,” which has been rendered by the historian of the United' States, ■ “ Nature having made no all men have an •equal right to liberty.” The. same eminent writer, in speaking of the Declaration, says: “The bill of rights Which it promulgates, is of rights that are older than human institutions, and spring from the eternal justice that is anterior to the State." “ The heart of Jefferson in writing the Declaration, and of Congress In adopting it, beat for all humanity; the assertion of right was made for the entire world of mankind, and all coining genera tions, without any exception whatever, for the proposition which admits of exceptions can never be self-evident. As it was put forth in. the name of the ascendant people of that time, it was sure to make the cir cuit of the world, passing everywhere, through the despotic countries of Europe ; and the astonished nations, as they read that all men are created equal, started out of their lethargy like those who have been exiles from childhood, when they suddenly hear the dimly-remembered accents of their mother-tongue. ’ ’ The criminal folly of the slaveholders has realized the vision of our Revolutionary fathers, and the present .ge neration will hail the day when the foot of a slave cannot touch the free soil of our free Republic. ■ The acts of Congress in re lation to slavery in the District of Colum bia and the Territories, the proclamations of the President and the amendment to the Constitution, will effect this desirable object, which makes us not only theoretically but practically the freest Government in the world. We have, first the people, second the executive and legislative branches, and now the judiciary, all in favor of this great movement. The President has, with great sagacity, selected as the chief of the judi cial branch Salmon P. Chase, an able law yer 'and pure patriot, who has been Go vernor of Ohio, a member for many years •of the Senate of the United States, and who, as Secretary of the Treasury, had a world-wide reputation as a skilful finan cier, equalled only by that of his renowned predecessor Alexander Hamilton. He was one of that small hut potent phalanx in the Senate .who for so many weary ses sions fought the great battle of freedom, which has at last terminated in a glorious victory. Upon the greatest question of this generation Chief Justice Chase is a pledged man. Two other measures equally important in putting down the rebellion are the draft and the legal-tender acts. The constitutionality of the first has been sustained by the Supreme Court of Penn sylvania, and of the second by the Court of ■' Appeals of New "York, both of which de cisions we are morally certain Chief Justice ■ Chabe approves. The New Attorney General. The record of Hon. James'S SFebd, Of Kentucky, recently appointed Attorney General of tie United States, shows his fitness for an office so honorable and influ ential. Judge Speed is not only a lawyer of eminence, but, though little of a politi cian, has long been distinguished among the eminent men of I his own State As early :as 1849 he was a leader of the small party Which endeavored to make Kentucky a free State.

Penney, of Allegheny county, who nominated Morton MoMl chael, Esq., of Philadelphia, as president. John Bammeisly, W. W. Hays, and John A. Small, were appointed secretaries. Rev, Mr. Jack son opened the proceedings with prayer. , Mr. MoWtchael, on assuming the chair, made the following remarks: We have'met to-day, gentlemen of the Electoral College, for the performance of an augnst duty. Under all cironmstances, the determination, by a great Commonwealth, of questions affeoting Its largest Interests, Is of grave Importance, and Ur Is especially so when the result of that determination may Involve Its very existence. Recently oar State, In common with her loyal sister States, has been called upon to meet this very emergency—to solve by her action political problems alike awful In their immediate influence and their remoter conse quences, and It is to give praeUoal efficacy to what she has done in the premises that we have been de puted by our fellow-citizens. I am sure that each of you feels, as I do, the magnitude ofthe trust re posed in us. It Is no exaggeration to assert , that no people were ever before called upon to pronoonee upon Issues so vast and vital to themselves, and so world wide and all-embracing m their relations to others, as those which were presented to the people of the United States on the Bth of last November. The present destiny of the model republic of the earth, the future destiny of millions now living in distant regions, and millions yet to be bora in the coming ages, weye then to be decided. Who shall complain If we boast that never was a public opinion formed more thoughtfully and wisely, or a public award proclaimed more resolutely and calmly 1 The spec tacle of that memorable .day was, indeed, full of moral sublimity. In the midst of an unparalleled excitement, after all that was mean and sordid and mercenary in out frail human natures had been constantly solicited, and when evil passions had been goaded.to their fiercest extremity, men quietly repaired to the Tolls, and there, without tnmiut or tnrbulenco, settled questions which had for months, vea, for years, intensely agitated all minds and bosoms; and, by their violent disturbance, shaken onr civil and social fabrics to their very oentres. .1 say settled, gentlemen, because from that day’s decision there can be no appeal. It was no hasty, impulsive, or unconsidered conclusion, bat a sober, solemn, and deliberate judgment. All the issues had been fairly made up; all the pleadings care fully prepared; all the evidence thoroughly exa mined ; all the arguments closely canvassed. In' the broad blaze of thelntellectual noonuf the nine teenth century, while every olvilized nation looked on with earnest attention, bbfore the majestic tri bunal of a self-governing people, the imposing trial was had whether freedom, humanity, and pro gress should he our onward guides to the future, or whether, resulting the exploded forms of a cor rupt and lmbeclle past, and consenting to he again, marshalled by the debased apostles of effete and cruel institutions, we should relapse Into barbarism. Let God be praised that thetrlbuual was equal to the mighty work assigned to It, for never was ver dict moie complete, deserved, and emphatic than that which was then rendered. I do not propose to reopen the controversy which, so far as the great mass ofthe American people are concerned, was thus Anally closed. As a prelimi nary, however, to the votes we shall directly cast, It may not he amiss briefly to state the significance which, Us I understand it, the citizens of Pennsyl vania, In whose-behalf we are to speak, attach to the record we are about to make.’ Thatreoord is intended to show: ’ That, as the Southern rebellion was commenced, and has been continued, utterly without justifica tion, the war It has compelled us to wage must be prosecuted, at whatever cost,.until the treason has been wholly subdued, and the flagrant traitors sig nally punished; . That-the Union, in support of which the loyal portion of the American people arc contending, is, In the highest sense, a National Union, and can never be sundered upon any assumption of States rights, or upon any pretext of States wrongs: That, as slavery, through its baleful agencies, S revoked, promoted, and now sustains the rebel on, and from its very essence cannot coexist with republican generament, therefore the peace for which we are struggling, as well as the future honor, dignity, and safety of the nation, demand Its total extirpation: That, as moans to tbls end, not less than for rea sons more Instant and urgent, the proclamations and other measures of emancipation adopted by the National Administration, whether through Its olril or its military instrumentalities, have been just and necessary, and that to remove all further difficulty the National Constitution should be so amended as to prohibit involuntary servitude, except for crime, on all soli now occupied by any of the United States, and In all territory now belonging to or henceforth to be acquired by them. There can be no doubt, I think, that these pro positions were sanctioned mid accepted by the people of this Commonwealth at the recent elec tion. There can be no doubt, I am confident, that their suffrages on that occasion were meant to testify their gratitude, respect, and esteem for the good and faithful Magistrate whom they have a second time aided In calling to preside over the nation. I believe that nowhere, not even in his own cherished Illinois, where he has been so long known and loved, Is there entertained for Mr. Lincoln a warmer or more affectionate attachment than that whloK we Pennsylvanians feel. His honesty, Ms tenderness, his benevolence, his ge niality, have won onr kindliest regard for his personal 'character, while his sagacity, his fore- Bight, "his steadiness of purpose, his remarkable aptitude for business, his large somprehonslon of affairs, bis uncomplaining endurance of labors such as few besides bimseir have been called to undergo, and hisunwearyingpatience under trials which none besides bimself could have borne with equanimity, have secured onr strongest admiration for his quali ties as a statesman and his capacity as a ruler. 'Having faith alike in his skin and his integrity, wherever he has offered to lead we have been eon *?£L to J ollow - adTa hcioß as he advanced, pausing when he paused—and events have vindicated our reumioe. Weighed In the balanoeof an enlightened patriotism, he has pot been found wanting by a single scruple; measured by the standard of emi nent public service, ho rises to the loftiest height and presents the finest proportions. .

Re corder Hofltoan, in his charge to the Grand Jury on Monday, alluded to the unpromising fact, and stated that one hundred and thirty men are now In prlEon awaiting Indictment or trial. Baring the past month the record of metropolitan erlmo has been simply hideous. All manner of Infamy,, all grades of brutality—in short, the whole gamut of wickedness seems to have been ran through per sistently, "Villainy thrumming especially upon the murder string. To the eases which come before the public must be added those the records of which lie only In the offices of referees, and never meet the public eye save In the merest allusions. Intermi nable divorce cases, Involving the vilest turpitude, are heard by the score In dingy Wall-street and William-street officeß, and yet of these the Grand Jurießare In blissful Ignorance- Belt remarked, also, that scandal was never so rife and society never so thoroughly polluted by. social sins. It would appear as though we have indeed fallen upon evil days when the evil portions-grow strictly domi nant, “ and will not down.” The United States Grand Jury have Indioted Isaac Henderson, late navy agent, lor alleged mal versations while holding that position. Mr. Hen derson’s friends stm appear to be confident of his vindication" when the case shall be snbmltted-for trial. Mr. Henderson. Is likewise defendant In a civil suit for $128,800.66, brought by Joseph L. Savage, a Government contractor, the same gen tleman upon whose representations Mr. Henderson was deprived of his . office and arrested upon the above charges. Judge JRussell, In view of the recent mania for 1 robbery and assault, has publicly declared his In tention to visit upon every offender convicted before him of robbery with dangerous weapons the fullest penalty of the law. A short time ago he sentenced one of the rasoals to Imprisonment for twenty years and six months. , Judge Cardozo has denied the motion for the re moval of the case of General Butler to the United States oonrts. * "'pbop, gold Win smith - Is at present the guest of the Hon.

The daily routine was varied by the reception of a flag of truce, sent by General Hood,'which, was received by our Tickets on the Franklin pike, at about 11 A. M.' The bearer had the following letter from General Hood 1 : Headquabtbbs Dbpabtmbwt or Tswresses ■ j AHD GBOSGIA, Dr the Field, Deo. 5,1884. To the Commanding Officer United.

Very respectfully, yours, etc., Geobgz H. Thojcas, ‘ Major General Commanding. All sorts of rumors prevailed in the City when the news got abroad that a flag of truce had come in. The general supposition was that Hood had de manded a surrender of the city. .Generals Milroy and Rousseau are at Murfrees boro, which Ib amply garrisoned and'defended against any rebel force which may attack It. Yesterday a body of rebels attacked block-houses Nos. 6 and 7, near Murfreesboro. They were gal lantly fought by the garrison, and soon a body of troops, sent by Milroy from Murfreesboro, arrived, who attaoked the rebels with such effect that they were driven off in confusion, leaving six guns and a number of prisoners. Matters at the front to-day are quieter than usual. No artillery that can he seen has yet been placed in position by the rebels/ Hood’s headquarters are said to be at Brentwood, six miles north of . this city, qp the Franklin pike. ; CAPTURE Of BBBEtGBHBEAtB AT THE BATTLE OF Domßvttra, Deo. 7.—A special despatch to the Journal, dated yesterday, says the rebels lost ten general, officers at the battle of Franklin, among whom were Generals Go van and Quarles, whose names were .not. previously reported.

Xa .the twenty-four hours since this bill was introduced great mischief has been done, and every day and hour this bill remained where it was'sttll greater miseh ef will result in raising the price of gold., It indicts three States of the Union, and makes every man guilty of a misdemeanor, and every clause of it commits the House to impossibilities. Gold rose yesterday 12 per cent., for no other reason than this ex traordinary bill. .MV. COa , of Ohio, did not agree with the gentleman that; this, hill put up the price ef go'd. He rather thought ihe President had Bayed the -’bull” by his message. - ■ Mr. STEVENS, of Pennsylvania. in reply to Mr. -Blaine, said the action he proposed had been exercised by the most distinguished statesmen for several ages, aqd Is at least worthy of consideration. There ought to pe some cheek putto gambling, when gold was pat .to twice and a half its value.- This conld-not be pre vented unlessby 'somelegislation in some way.
