ScoTel.
Wit have received tha following communica
tion, which shows the treachery of J. M.
Scovel in even a stronger light than It has
heretofore appeared :
To the Editor of the Evening Telegraph:
1'HILADKLPHIA. April 4. 1861.
1 mart think that the sovere condemnation lav
ished on Jambs M. Soovel, of New Jorsov. 1b pre
mature and unfounded. Aboat the time of the
metine of the present Congress, your correspondent
took occasion, in the presence ot Mr. Scotkl, to
express admiration ot the sentiments of the Presi
dent, as expressed in his mos&)te, when Mr.
fcoovM. volunteered tho statomoiit or prophecy that,
it Aiidkbw Johnson's acts woro as Rood as his
words, there Iwoold bo much cause ibr rejoiciue
Hut that be know positivoly that he would prove
traitor not only to tho principles ho had avowod, but
also to the venerous party that had trusted him,
and placed bim In a position of honor. He said this
w.w a matter of cortainty, not only with him, but
also with Hobacb Urkblbt, with whom be (Sir.
Scovel) was In daily correspondence, and other
prominent political prophota; and then, in the mist
emphatic language, he denounced the traitor who
would espouse the principles of a party only to betray
it, declaring that, a man was hound to carry out the
principles of the party by whom he teas nominated.
Having beard those remarks from tho .lips ot Mr(
Sootkl myself, I foci bound to believe that he wil
not commit the crimo of treason to a party that
raised bim from tho condition of a third-rato petti
fogger to a position to which his moral character or
intellootual ability would surely never have .'lo-
vated bim. Mao.
Also, tho following cUaract eristic incident,
which proves that ten years ha not changed
the President of the New Jersey Senate:
Editor of Hie Evening Telegraph:
Seme years airo, when tho threo panics (Whig,
Demoorat, and Native Amorlcan ) were ia tho tl-jld,
Soovtti. went to an old ironilcmin of Catndeu well
versed id politics and asked bin advice as to which
meeting bo should bo d iorth at. Tho old jrentlo
O'mau slyly told him, "James, theo had tiettor speak
at ail ol ttieni," and Jamks did so. Camden.
Wo should think that If the Sena
tor has one spark of honest pride in his
character he would bo by this time thoroughly
ashamed of his conduct. His defection has
caused the raking up of old and almost for
gotten incidents, and there are not a few per
sons who recall the fact that when Scovel,
"the man with the empty purse," desired to
secure the seat in the Senate which he at
present holds, the man whom he is now tra
ducing was the first to furnish him withtho
funds necessary in the canvass. And now
this creature of bounty turns upon the man
who supplied him with hinds and the party
which gave him their votes, and, to gratify a
personal spite, violates gratitude and pledges,
and acta with his opponents. We had fondly
hoped, when the will of his constituents and
his fellow-members was made known, that he
should return to the side where he would
naturally be found. We have deluded our
selves with the belief that this man had one
grain of truth, one atom ot honor still left in
his constitution, and that when the unanimous
wish of his party was expressed ho would
vote for their nominee. Such a trust has
proven ill-founded. James M. Scovkl is a
hostess renegade. lie has wilfully and
openly perjured himself, and the best thing
that the party can do is to let him alone.
We greatly doubt the legality of the law
adop'ed by the majority of the New Jersey
Senate, which requires that a majority of the
whole number of Senators shall be necessary
before the body can 'go into a joint conven
tion. A majority of the Senators voting, pro
Tided a quorum be present, is, in our opinion
sufficient to adopt a resolution. In the pre
. sent case there are 21 members, of whom 9
vote. Of that number 10 are in favor of
going into convention, and 0 against it.
Surely, by such a vote, tho Senate is author,
ized to go into convention. A clearly legal
majority id in favor of such an action,
unless a law be adopted requiring some other
than the constitutional vote. No single reso
lution can change the law any more than the
Senate might demand a two-thirds vote, as
easily as they can a majority of the whole
number.
The proper course for the Union members
of the Seuate, in our opinion, is plain. Let
them move to go into a joint convention, and
when the vote is announced as 10 to 9 let
them go in. If Scovel w.on't go, let bim stay
behind. The House will receive them, an
election will be held, and the Senator be sent
to Washington. His case can then be investi
gated by the Senate of the United States.
It the election ol the New Jersey Senator be
illegal, then the new Senator will be ousted ;
if, on the other hand, as we are convinced,
that the action of the Senate is totally
without sauction of law, then will this
election be lawful, and the dead lock be
broken. We do not advise any act which
would be wrong; but, wlen there is a doubt,
let us have the benefit of it, and by our action
rid ourselves of the tyranny which accidental
circumstances have placed in- he hands of a
traitor.
Tn High School Investigation.
The Committee of the Board of School Con
trollers to whom was referred the investiga
tion of the condition of the Central High
School, baa commenced its labors with com
mendable energy. From what we saw during
our attendance at its session yesterday, we
should judge that its deliberations are con
THE DAILY EVENING TELEG RATH. MIIL
ducted In a spirit of impartiality. ' The
chairman continually evidenced bis wish. for
an honest examination, without fear or favor,
and several of the members also declaieda
similar desire. We hope tht a radical error
in the course of investigation will be cor
rected. The Committee Is to examine into
the condition of the High School." Its power
Includes all the Professors, as well as the
Principal. It is not to accuse or . try Mr.
Magotrb, but to thoroughly Investigate.
Let them then co into all the departments
and see if the evil does not lie raiber in cer
tain prolossors, and not in the head of the
institution. If some of the graduates w'ere to
be examined they could easily tear the
cloak from the gentlemen who are giving
such evidence against Mr. Maguire, and
prove that the institution Is more Injured by
their incompetency and vulgarity than by
any dereliction of duty on trie part of the
Principal. We hope that the committee will
extend their examination, and look into the
departments as well as the conduct of the
much mall gned head of the school.
Social Extravagance.
If by any possibility some stranger from a
distant planet, moved by a purpose to study
our modes and methods of life, were suddenly
placed in the circle of our daily business and
social relations, we Imagine it would require
a vast amount of explanation to make him
comprehend the lact that we ure just emerg
ing fiom tho densest cloud of war that ever
brooded over a nation, ne would scarcely
believe that for long dreary years malignant
hate between brothren ot the same family
had made the streams of many a quiet valley
run red with blood, and incarnadined the nar
row passes of our mountain ranges. He
would hardly suspect that at almost every
hearthstone throughout the length and
breadth oi the land there is at least one
vacant chair, and that every ceme
tery holds the ashes ot those who fell
in the deadly conflict. Should he peruse
the reports of the Secretary of tho Treasury,
and discover the untold millions that have
been expended to save the national lite, and
secure a permanent and substantial peace, he
would surely wonder lrom what "Aladdin's"
cave those vast stores of wealth could have
been procured, and the nation yet remain
unexhausted and teetnine with illimtUbln re
sources. In taet, we are an enisrma to our
selves. Accustomed to peaceful avocations,
pursuing the arts ol quiet life, guiding the
plough in the glebe, setting into active and
incessant motion ten thousand looms and
shuttles, laying down the keels of great
leviathans that in fleetness and capacity out
rival all the naval architecture of the ship
yards of the world; yet. when the tocsin of
war Bounded, the highways were thronged
with brawny and muscular yeomen, pushing
Ibrward eagerly to smite with the avengers
rod the bold deflers ot rightful authority. We
are strong in peace and mighty in war.
All these merits, and more, we may justly
claim; but it is not, there lore, true that a a
nation, any more than as individuals, we have
arrived at a state of absolute perfection. There
is much In the everyday life around us that
cries aloud for remedy. Our unmeasured
success, our unparalleled growth, and our un
exampled prosperity, have introduced iuto
our national character a recklessness and
dash which, unless curbed by prudence and
wise forecast, may act disastrously In tho
future. We are in danger of living too fast.
In fact, many are guilty of this indiscretion
already. The enormous fortunes which have
resulted from lucky speculations and the
necessities of the Government arising out of
the war, have entirely changed the status of
mnny families and individuals. Sometimes
the fortunes thus suddenly obtained .have
fallen into the hands of sagacious and
thrifty business men, who know how to use
their good fortune, not only to their own ad
vantage, but to that of those around them.
In such cases, a nation is the gainer; but, in
the majority of cases, the vast accumulations
have lallen in charge of those unaccustomed
by education or experience to understand the
responsibilities inseparably attaching to the
possession of unbounded wealth. To these
minds the first great duty of the millionaire is
to make an ostentatious and vulgar display
of their accidental prosperity. They grow
ambitious to shine in circles which they were
never intended to adorn; they look down
patronizingly upon the caste which they have
leit, but which they have not risen above;
and become ridiculous, if not odious, by their
supercilious airs and insufferable insolence.
With a plethoric bank account, they dream ol
honors flowing in upon them unbidden, and
claim for their money that respect and con
sideration which is only given to . actual
worth ; they build costly mansions, and deco
rate them with tawdry gewgaws ; they roll
along our streets in flashing equipages ; they
ape the worst features of foreign manners ;
their lives are without aim, except to excite
tho remarks, and perhaps the envy, of
those around them ; their wives and
daughters, lacking the education that fits
them for their aflec ted style of life, mistake
display for gentility, and inspire in sober
minds a feeling ot disgust, in lieu of what
they hoped would be admiration. The most
lavish expenditure of means fails to secure
them entrance into what Is really good so
ciety. They are consequently forced to form
coteries of their own, in which the length of
purse is the measure of respectability. Society
founded upon such a basis can never rise
above its own level. It may glitter and cor
uscate, but it lacks the vital elements of
success.
It is this style of life from which we, as a
nation, have most to fear. There is nothing
in it calculated to elevate or Improve our
condition. Simple expenditure for the sake
of ow has no merit. Pile all tho diamonds
of Oolconda, and the pearls of "Ormus and of
Ind," upon the persons of ttoe unaccus
tomed to their two; bedeck, with the richest
stuffs of Lyons' the retired fish-huckster;
enfold In broadcloth the voluminous person
of the successful butcher; and if the sterling
quality that gives merit to the man is want
ing, we have but the gilded puppet, who plays
badly a port never designed for him. It Is
not wpon gold, nor anything it can buy, that
we found a fixed and stable reputation. Ho
spectabillty Is a thing inborn, and is part and
parcel ot the man. It is neither contagious
or epidemic.
The need of tho hour is a more frugal style
of life. Wise men see in the future the pre
monitions of commercial and financial convul
sions. It behoves U to husband their re
sources and prepare tor the evil hour. If the
crash should come and find us in the midst of
revelry and extravagance, it will be all the
more severe, and our fault will be the mora
grievous. We are prosperous and happy now,
and we should commence the preparation for
darker hours.
Scovel's Denial of Oar Accusation.
Tub New York papers of to-day publish a
letter from Mr. Robert B. Lkkdh, of Atlan
tic City, which, as an example of choice rhe
toric and elegant grammar, we quote for the
edification of our readers:
"Atlantic Citt, Saturday, March 31. Hon. J
M. !-covki. Dear Mr: I seo in Tue Telkoraph
sonic person has been Rood eur.uirli to inform tho
editor ol something I raid in tho city alter I loft
you. In defending you, 1 said to a man that was
coming down on you pretty slinrp, that 1 reck
cued jou knev' what tuu wat at.
It appears from the artiole In
tho Tkleokaph that the man I sooke to wont
rilit to tho editor and reported not what i told
bim, lor I did not say you showed roo x letter
lrom the President, as stated in tho edi tonal ot Thk
TkXEORAPn this evening, but precisely as you told
me, and as above statod. I was asked by another
man that knows I and you aro particular friends,
whether I wa your friend yotf I told him vou
knew better than I did what was for the test. I say
the editor cannot prove by me what be said in his
paper. What I said to that man referred to was
done in d tending, you, but hai been construed
nenlnet you. I am, dear sir, very respectfully, your
tiitud, KonKUT B. Lkkds."
We regret that it did not suit Mr. Scov el's
purpose to lurnisb us with the whole of this
choice epistle. The point where the asterisks
occur is tlie most interesting. Will that gen
tleman give us the. omitted portion?
It is a matter of small interest to the public
whether this modern Lindlet Mukhay and
Scovel are Iricuds or not. But when be
refers to "precisely as you told me, and as
above stated," we think we are not asking too
much of Mr. Scovkl when we demand that
the portion of the letter In which his state
ment is repeated should be given to tha
public.
Mr. Scovel knows that he tlid receive a
communication from President Joniisox,
and he knows equally well fiat he told a cer
tain party, whom he, by into' ence, acknow
ledges was Robert B. Leeds, that he had
received such an overture lrom his Excel
lency ; and now he seeks to cover up thojutter
folly of such a confession by reading certain
portions of a note from a gentleman who
we hope has more respect for truth than he
has for the lung's English.
It is probably a cause of congratulation'and
pride to Mr. Scovel to know that when Mr.
Leeds was asked by a ' man that knows,"
what were the feelings between him and Mr.
Scovel, to have answered that "I and you
are particular friends." But what tho public
want to know, is what Mr. Scovel supplies
by asterisks. Is this the upright course which
a gentleman who resembled the rock of Gib
raltar and the frigate Cumberland would be
likely to adopt ?
We have never said that it was to Mr. R.
B. Leeds that such a confession was made by
Scovel; but as he sees fit to seek to escape
by quoting Leeds, let him at least make a
strong case so tar as he goes. As it at present
stands, we would willingly submit Mr.
Leeds' testimony in evidence, not for the
delense, but tor the prosecution. In fact,
thus far Mr. Leeds is one ot our witnesses
and not one ol Mr. Scovel's. The Presi
dent oj the New Jersey Senate does not dare
to stand up openly and say, "I did not re
ceive a letter from President Jonssox, In
which he offered me any posltlonunderGovern-
ment iIwovld defeat the election ofaradi
cal Senator from New Jersey." That Is the
denial we want from Mr. Scovel, and not
a garbled extract from a letter ol a gentle
man ot Atlantic City. In that letter Leeds
actually acknowledges that he did say
to '"somebody" in Philadelphia what
try rti . '
,VKH1JS( 1ELEUUAPB aCCUSOd a
nameless party of acknowledging. He
writes: "I see by The Telegraph that
some one has been good enough to inform
the editor of that paper of something I said
in the city alter I left you." This acknow
ledges that he did say what was told to us.
We never asked Mr. Leeds to commit him
self; but 11 he Insists on doing so we have
no objection to his bearing testimony on our
slue.
We have frequently said that we have no
desire to be unjust to any one. We asked on
Saturday Mr. Scovel whether he had not
received such a letter as we stated. Ho de
clines to answer, but reads an extract from a
letter he has received. We again repeat our
question, and open our editorial columns to
any reply that Mr. Scovel may dare to
mate, we will supply th; place or no lm
portant passages by asterisks.
