A curious hodge-podge, which com mon courtesy compels the country to call a President's message was promul gated the other day. Unfortunate in all his preceding official, political, and li rary performances, since the day of his inauguration, it was supposed and hoped that Grant would, with the a---tanee of his numerous Secretaries, be able to meet public exigency, and satisfy popular longing with an able a d statesmanlike presentation of the questions which must come before this administration for decision. But no reader can rise from a perusal of the message without either a feeling of disappointment or disgust- Instead ol the brevity and terseness-which were •<- ied. the document i- elaborate Aothont being graceful in style or phraseology, and expansive in ideas a d -tateinents without any special merit of detail or attractiveneas of c n-truction. Speaking of the message as we would of the human frame, we would say that its head was deficient in all the -trongand conspicuous characteristics which should distinguish so impor tant a function ; lacking in the high, -tatesmanlike and comprehensive tone which -hculd pervade so impottanta state paper: and unattended by any of the peculiar features whose promulga tion forces even unwilling admiration and respect. The body of the message would, from general characteristics, appear to make several who are not it- reputed author responsible for its ci cation. No doubt Bout well patched up the financial portion of it. Sumner probably wrote the paragraphon the' Al abama question' and foreign affairs. The-Cuban mu m mery isclearly the work of Fish, and Wilson or Butler may havedictated the reconstruction portion of it. The remainder of it bears -:rong resemblance to Badeau's style. The weak head of the document sur mounts a weaker and nore unhealthy body, which like that of a dwarf, is contracted to deformity that shrivels it into unshapely drivel and common places. There Is nothing in the message that bespeaks the frankness or directness of the soldier, nor the cogent reason ir g and logical precision of tht -tales man. Never in the history of the country has been presented to a President of this nation a more favorr- ble opportunity to unite every taction of his own party, and at least win the respect and confidence of the opposi tion, by the display of that broad and earnest statesmanship, that compre hensive grasp of intellect and far-see ing penetration of mind that probes deeper than mere words and soars higher than mere statistics. But Grant has clearly proved himself une qual to the emergency. He approach <•- the discussion of questions upon the-oiution which even the nation's fate may l>e involved, with the timid ity, vacillation, and restraint which a man feels who has no fixed opinions of his own, ar.d is desirous of coocilia tmg and harmonizing the broken fac tions of a rapidly dissolving party. There i- reveahd throughout the Message a consciousness that Grant is the Man and Congress the Master. It is this subservient tone, thi- official survility that disgusts everybody who thought Grant had ome individuali ty. The most correct estimate of the val ue and strength of the document may best be formed by comparing it with tie ine—ages of any of the later Pres idtnts. We miss the profound and logical reasoning of Van Buren, the char and statesmanlike perspicuity of Pierce, thesound argument and solidity of expression of Buchanan, the ring- ing eloquence and stately dignity of Johnson, and even the original and suggestive public utterances of Lin coln. What was wisely conspicuous, and to the nation of the profoundest importance, in the state papers of the later Presidents finds no exponant in Grant —an earnest, ;sound, discrimina ting and dignified public policy.— There is no fixed policy defined in his message—no =eukd plan of administra tion. He proves by every statement, by every sentence, that he is the mere plaything of tougresr, subject to all its caprices, its willing and subservi ent tool. But after all, il may have been fool ish to expect more from a man who, with tanning leather in Galena and peddling wood on the Mississippi, l>a.-sed forty-five years of his existence in blissful ignorance of all questions pertaining to public affairs. The world i- full of men who are out of their places, that is, the places which their abilities peculiarly qualify thein to fill; hut the country is to be congratula ted on the fact that only one at a i mc of this class can lie President. ii would have been better for the j fid more creditable to Grant, in so far as the message i- a mere literary performance if he had allow led himself to be "interviewed" by some smart, enterprising pres- re porter, who, by a -eries of apt qoer ies concerning public matters, would have extracted from the President pre cisely -ueh information as the people desired. Such material, presented in the piquant style and with the dili cious pungency which characterize most press report- now-a-days, would have placed even-body iD good hu mor with the Administration, and sa ved Grant the unpleasant reflection that he had made a most egregious blunder in presenting to the country an annual message that bad nothing to recommend it, not even the poor merit of being gracefully and smooth ly written. A WEDDING AT WOBILtTSi. The marriage of M. Paul Geraud, brother-in-law of the Portugese minis ter, and Miss Marie B. Worm ley, the daughter of the well known negro ca terer in Washington, say- the Patriot, is brilliantly described in the newspa- pers of the party. Shakespeare tells the story of Desdetnona's. love for Oth ello. Brabantio, the father of the fair maiden, absurdly declared that the sooty Moor had used drugs and con juration? to enchant his daughter.— But Othello explained how he had won the charming gir! of that period. He had frequent invitations to the pater nal abode, and told amazing -tories of hi- imprisonment in the Anderson ville- of hi- time, of hi? escapes, of his Fort Fisher fights and all that sort of thing, which the girl was foolish e nough to believe. She was more fool ish to marry him. The tragic ending of that affair ha- prevented the exam ple of Desdemona from finding many imitations on the stage of rr-al life un- til the present time. This new love affair which has tilled the ranks of the miscegenators with encouragement and delight, has some siight variations from the great dram atic event to which we have referred. One radical newspaper in recording the marriage says that the father i- a negro and the daughter an octoroon, but that is slightly mixed. In this case it was not drugs and magic whi;h won the youth. Oysters and lobster sauce did the business. Worm ley, be it remembered, is the caterer who ju diciously mingles dishes and diploma cy. Wormley was on confidential terms with Mr. Seward during the time when that statesman presided over our foreign affairs, and at present is said to have exceedingly intimate relation- with F*ish. When a Japanese, Chinese or PortugeeseEmbassy, or oth er outlandish delegation, is sent to this country, it is immediately on its arri val in Washington, put in charge of Worm ley. No audience could be had at the White House until the cuisine of the great Wormley had been enjoy ed. Here, under the inspiration of Worm ley's wines, the embassadors prepared for their diplomatic labor-. It was here that Burlingame lodged hi- Chinese delegation, and here the Portuguese youth, the gentleGeraud, met the lovely Marie. She it was who bore to him daily on a tray the oysters of Wormley, more delicious far than any he had ever tasted in his own O porto, and as he swallowed them down, love rose triumphant in his soul. When, at times, the memory of the lonesome youth reverted to a vale in his native land w here danced the lovely maidens by moonlight beneath the cork tree, it was Marie who brought him to by popping a cork of the Veuve Cliquot. If there sometimes mingled with his morning dreams a midnight serenade in Lisbon and a damsel at the half-opened jalousies, Marie with her soft announcement of such fresh -had and mutton chops as List-on never knew, would wake him to a happy realization of the pres ent. With such gastronomic bliss at Worm ley's could love for the daugh ter of the host fail to enter? The rad j icals would fain record this event as a great triumph of their teachings. But it may be put down as a striking i instance of the control which the stom -1 ach has over the human affections. NOT TRUE.— We have hitherto re frained from noticing the unju-t and unmanly attacks of the editor of the Genius of Liberty upon Hon. B. F, Meyers, of the GAZETTE and Patriot. And all we have to say now is, that when the editor of the Genius says that Mr. Meyers was "lukewarm in the senatorial content between Find lay and Scull," in this district, he either affirms whereof he know- not, or he willfully and maliciously ut ters what he knows to La* a falsehood. —Somerset Democrat. THE action of the Wyoming Territo rial Legislature in relation to accidents to employees on railroads is specially commended to the attention of the Legislature of Pennsylvania. Last winter a bill was passed at Harrisburg, and signed by Governor Geary, which debarred employees from the right of obtaiuing more than three thousand dol lars for any accident that might befall r jpa* thetn on a railroad. The injustice of such a law docs not need pointing oyt. | The best commentary on it is the sub { stance of the following paragraph: "The Wyoming Legislature has en acted that "-any person or employee on any railroad in this Territory who may be injured or killed while in the performanceoftheir duties or otherwise -hall have the sam" right of action for damage against -aid company a- if such person were not an employee.' " - IK THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY DEAD? Radical journals and stumpers for some years have frequently announced the death of the Democratic party.— Let the reader calmly take a survey of the field and he will ascertain the facts in the case. Jsometbing that Rad icals seldom deai in. The States of New York, Pennsyl vania, Ohio and Indiana, poll in round numbers, say, the following votes: Sew York 730 (>OO . Pesnsrlvani* D04,M0 Obio 520.W0 Indiana 336 MO Total.. 2 530 6W This is nearly one half of the total vote of the United Stab--, and it is morc than two-fifths. Now, let us see how it i- divided between the two parties: Dens CDR J Rett msj New York 33.06<> Pennsyivsni* 5.660 Obio - 7.500 10-iics* ,'iu 18#5t 1,000 Total 33,000 13.500 Oem-eratie majority 19.500 It thus appear-, says the Cincinnati Enquirer, in these great Common wealths. which have more than one third of the population of the Union, that there are iSyjoo more Democrats than Republicans. This is allowing the majority they got in Indiana last year, which they cannot get again.— Had the *-tate voted this fall it would have given us 10,0rtn majority. This does not look as if the Democracy were dead or in a dying condition. A most vigorous and per-istent effort is being made all over the Slate, as well a in adjoining States, to secure the re spite of Dr. Schceppe, now lying in the jail of Cumberland county under the sentence of death. If Governor Geary re-i-t- these demonstrations and ap peals he will be firmer in his convic tions of Scheeppe's guilt than most other persons. No case within our re collection ha- elicited more marked feeling of interest than this one of Dr. Schceppe. The fact of the verdict and sentence having drawn out the most marked expressions of dis sent from a great number of the ablest physicians and chemists in the coun try ought to induce Governor Geary to grant the respite at least, if not to pardon the prisoner. FO\OR£SSIO\AL. WASHINGTON, Dee. 8. In the Senate yesterday, Mr. Sum ner introduced a bill looking to a re turn to specie payments It contains several important provisions. A large number of other bills were introduced and referred, among them one to aid and promote the International Exhibi tion to be held in Washington in 1871, and another declaring Virginia to be a State of the Union and entitled to rep resentation in Congress. In the the various subjects mentioned in the President's message were referred to appropriate commit tees. Bills were introduced aud refer red to reorganize the Treasury De partment ; to reqa-al the tenure-of of ficeaet; to establish a uniform system of naturalization ; to prohibit the sales of coin in behalf of the United State-, and to provide for the redemption of legal tender notes in coin at pur.— Messrs. Heflin, Dox, Hays and Sher rard, the.meinbers elect from Alabama, were admitted to their seats. WASHINGTON, Dec. 9. The Senate yesterday elected the members of the several standing com mittees as previously elected by the republican caucus. Among the bills introduced and referred was one to ap peal the test oath act. Mr. Ferry, who introduced this bill, made some very sensible remarks on the subject. A resolution was adopted requesting the committee on military affairs toinquire whether any legislation is necessary to secure to colored citizens who have served in the armies of the United States equal rights with white citizens. The joint resolution to remove all po litical disabilities upon the ratification i oi the fifteenth amendment was, after some debate, adopted. A resolution was introduced declaring that no ?Btate having once ratified an amendment to the United States constitution -hall have power to rescind Its action. In the House, Mr. Morrell, of Penn sylvania introduced a bill to fund the national debt of the United States at a lower rate of interest, and to make : national hanking free. It was referred to the committee on ways and means. Mr. Cobb, of North Carolina, offered a resolution in tavor of the recognition | of the Independence of Cuba, and de ; claring that the House will support the President of the United States in its recognition. The resolution was ; not entertained. Bills were Introdu : eed and referred to abolish the duties I on coal; to amend the homestead act so as to allow soldiers who served in the Union army to secure one hundred and sixty acres of land for homestead purposes, instead of eighty acres, as at present, and also to exempt the prop perty of the Union soldiers and sailors from taxation, the same as the bonds of the bondholders. The cen sus bill was then discussed in com mittee of the whole up to the hour of adjournment. WASHINGTON, Dec. 10. In the Senate a number of bills were introduced and referred, among them one from the judiciary committee de fining the jurisdiction of the United States Court-in Virginia and Texas, another to increase the salary of the Chief Justice of the United States to $12,000 per annum, ami of the Associate Justices to sl9,f*K>. Mr. Sumner offer ed a re-olution which was adopted, instructing the committee on the Db trict of Columbia to inquire into the propriety of repealing the charter of the Medical Society of the District of Colombia, and of such other legisla tion as may be necessary to secure medical practitioners in the District of Columbia equal rights without distinc tion of eolor. After an executive ses sion the Senate ad orned until Mon day. In the House a bill was introduced, but subsequently withdrawn, authori zing an additional is-ue of legal-ten der notes to the amount of forty-four millions of dollar-. The census bill was then taken up in committee of the whole, when a-pirited debate ensued, but uo result was arrived at, and the House adjourned until to-day. FROM THE FEDERAL CAPITAL. WASHINGTON, Dec. 9. De-pairing of doing anything with a tariff by a general bill, members seem to be trying the tinkering pro is—. and arc offering numerous bills putting the tariff upon certain articles and putting other-on the free list.— They hope by this course to get matters through that might be defeated if in corporated in a general bill. The bill of Mr. Stevenson, of Ohio, introduced in the House to-day and re ferred to the way- and means commit tee proposes to exempt troin import duty the folio wing articles: Tea,coffee, molasses, syrup, nutlado or cane juice, rice, salt, coal, lumber, timber, hides, -kins, printing paper anil iron in pig-. The House waysand mean®commit tee have had the iron section of the tariff bill under consideration, but the duties remain about the same, with a new classification. A number of the most prominent physicians of the city have issued a call for a public meeting, to he held Saturday afternoon, for the purpose of reviewing the case of Dr. l'aul Schccppe, now sentenced to execution on the 22d in®t. They state that med ico-legal questions of paramount im portance to the profession and society at large are involved in this case, and demand consideration and immediate action thereon. A meeting of labor delegates from several States, including Massachu setts, Maryland, Michigan, Pennsyl vania, Wisconsin, California, Ac., of which A. M. Winn, has been chosen president, is in se-sion here to secure the passage of a more complete and ef ficient eight hour law by Congress. A convention of pension agents from various sections of the country, sum moned to devise the best means to pre vent frauds upon the bureau, and the safest method of conducting business, has been in session here since Monday. Commissioner Delano has issued a circular of instructions to supervisors of internal revenue officers who collect fees for making out returns, Ac., or as sisting those who do not know how to comply with the law. The term of office of between three and four hundred postmasters appoint ed by President Johnson during the first session of the Thirty-ninth Con gress will expire during the present session. Successors for many of them are already being urged by the mem bers from their respective districts.— Cor. Bait. Sun. The money power of the country is rapidly concentrating against the in terests of the working classes. The Cincinnati Enquirer says: Thirty five years ago, in the days of President Jackson, a National Bank, with its capital of thirty-five millions of dollars, was considered so formida ble to popular liberty that all was put down by the voice of the people. Now we have seventeen hundred National Banks, with a capital of three hundred millions of dollars. Affiliated with them are three hundred thousand bond holders, who represent two thousand millions of bonds. They have with their five hundred millions of capital invested in manufacturing, privileges in New England which are sustained by protection bonds from the Nation al Treasury. To these are joined the great railroad corporations—not only the Pacific with its sixty millions of dollars* aid from the Treasury, and its host of branch roads, but such great corporation as the New York and E rie, New York Central and Pennsylva nia Ceutral, which jointly control a capital of two hundred millions of dol lars. Of the power of corruption and in timidation possessed by these great ag gregations of money, it is useless and unnecessary to speak. We have for years .seen them in our elections and in our primary meetings, We have seen them in the legislation of the country. Everything it has done has been for the wellbeiog of these privileged classes. Whether the country will be able to stop this monetary vassalage and as sert its independence jn the future remains to be seen. At present it is the practical doctrine that only the great moneyed classes have any right to l>e heard and considered in legisla tion. "Doseh," the ceremony of celebra ting the birthday of Mahomet, was duly observed in Cairo, Egypt, and was celebrated on the fird of Novem ber, and the prostrate b<>dies of fanat ics were ridden over by the Sheik el Bekree, live snakes were eaten, glass crunched and swallowed, bodies slash ed with swords, cheeks and breasts pierced with sharp metal instruments, which were left sticking in the wounds they made, and hundreds of men and boys shrieked and writhed, and wres tled in what professed to be a mad ex lacy of religious fervor. This fete was instituted by Sultan Morad 111, in 15S8, or in the year of the Hegira. Whiskey has risen to twenty cents a drink in Brooklyn since the seizure of illicit stills. SHOCKING PUNISHMENT IN CUBA. — A letter received in New York from Havana, under date of November 2Kb, gives the details of the discovery of a negro rising in Cuba, and the horrible punishment which was indicted upon those engaged in it. The letter tells the following d >ubtful story : "Throe of the number were shot, one was flogged on three different occa sions, receiving in all eight hundred laches, and one of the best negroes on the place, a vigorous man, was whip ped almost to death ; and amid his suf terings, while refloatedlv tainting and falling to the ground from sheer weak ness, vvtts made to declare what he knew. Another, upon receiving the order to lie down and submit to be tied and receive punishment, fell sense less. Nevertheless he received a thousand lashes, without giving the slightest sign of life. A creole negro, suspected to be, though uot, implica ted in the plot, received one thousand two hundred lashe®. The handsof the estates were collected together upon the K-perauza, and there in the pres ence of two thousand negroes, the ring leaders of the conspiracy were flogged in gangs of twenty-one at a time, two executioners being detailed for each victim. At the same place nine were -hot, and in the punishment inflicted no distinction was made between free and slave. We are in receipt of later and more satisfactory intelligence of the safety and w hereabouts of Dr. David Living stone, the great African explorer. Sir Seymour Fitzgerald telegraph- froua Bombay, under date of Nov. ±2, that lie had just received a letter from Liv ing-tone, dated Ujiji, May 13, 1-19, stating that he was in good health and -pirits. and that his discoveries had given him great satisfaction.

In a recent letter in an swer to some enquiries in relation to Chinese emigration, he hold-the fol lowing views: "t onsidering the purely economical view of the -übjeet, 1 entirely agree with you ; and it could hardly be bet ter stated and argued than it is in your able article in the New York Tribune. That the Chinese immigration, if it at tains great dimensions, must be eco nomically injurious *o the mass of the present population ; that it mu-i di minish their wages, and reduce them to a lower state of physical comfort aud well being, I have no manner of doubt. Nothing can be more falla cious than the attempts to make out that thus to lower wages is the way to raise thern, or that there is any com pensation, in an economical point of view, to those whose labor is displac ed, or who are obliged to work for a greatly reduced remuneration. On general priciple this state of thing-, were it -ure to continue, would justify the exclusion of the immigrants on the ground that, with their habits in respect to population, only a tempora ry good is done to the Chinese people by admitting part of their surplus numbers, while a permanent harm is done in a more civilized and improved portion of mankind.
