SATURDAY, MAY 12, 18(56. Tbe Tice-rresldoncjr. The nomination of General Febby for the Senate by the members of the Connecticut Legislature Is equivalent to his election to that office. lie will succeed the lion. L. S. Pohte Bjwhose term of office expires on the 3d of March, 1807. Senator Foster Is some times spoken of as "Vice President ;" but that appellation is an erroneous one. Since the succession of Vice-President Johnson to the Presidency, the Vice-Piesidency has been vacant. The Constitution provides only for filling tbe office ot President by the Vice President, in case ot the death, removal, or disability of the President. It empowers Conjrross to provide by law for the case of removal, death, etc., of both President and Vice-President, by declaring what officer shall then act as President. A law was passed at an early day to meet this contingency, which, however, has never yet occurred. It provides that In case ol the removal, death, resignation, or dis ability of both President and Vice-President, the President ol the Senate pro tempore, and in ca.se there hall bo no President of the Senate, then the Speaker of the House of Representatives for the time being, shall act as President until the disability be removed, or a Piesident shall be elected. No provi sion, however, is made, either in the Consti tution or in the laws of Congress, for the filling of the Vice-Presidency, as such, in case of a vacancy. Ilcnce there Is now a vacancy in that office, and should President Jouxsox die, be removed, or resign, both offices would then become vacant, and the President of the Senate pro tempore would become President. He would not hold the office, however, during the remainder of the term (unless the vacancy should occur near its close), but a new elec tion would be ordered in accordance with the provisions of the statute above quoted. The Veracious Scovel. We have oftiimcs commented on the folly as well as the treachery of the course of J. M. Scovkl, of Camden, but we never ex pected that he would so openly expose him self to detection, as it appears he has done by some of his assertions in his la'e address before the Union League. We have only to add, that if he willfuly disregards the truth in one case, why should we trust Lis word in another? Why should we believe him when he denied the receipt of a letter from the President, of which we have good evidence ? One deduction follows in the footsteps of the otLer. The following letter explains itself: Camokn, May 11, I8oG To the Editor of the Evening Telcfraih- Doar Sir: In the published remarks of Mr. J. 31. Scovkl betore tlio Board ol Directors at the Union League House, Philadelphia, April 23, 18'j(3, the iol owing assertion appears: "And to siiowyou the popular apprec'ation of this movement, I state wnat no man can uuu , that when that protest was presented to tuo Union Lua,-uo of Camden, it was ridiculed and withdrawn." Tho above awtei tion 1 am authorized to positively deny. J. b. Wood, Secro'ary Uam.lcn Union League. What is a Rebel's Oath Worth? Sknatob Nye, in his speech the other day, hit the nail on the head when he said thac taking the oath of allegiance did by no means prove a mau to bu loyal. There was hardly a leading Rebel in the whole South who was not under a solemn oath to support the Con stitution and laws of the United States. Davis, Stephens, Lee, Bkkckexridoe, Masox, Slidell, Bexjamin, IIustkb, Wihe the whole lot of them had taken that outh o?er and over again, yet it did not keep them from plotting and executing treason. And are they now sorry for it? Not a bit. Do they think they did wrong ? Not at all. Do they still believe in the right of secession? 3 Yes, every man of them. What use, then, for oaths to bind such inen? It is a solemn mockery. They have' already broken oaths as binding as it was possible for men to take. What use for new ones ? The Same Line of Action. The third section of the Constitutional amendment which prohibits traitors exercising the right of suffrage until the year 1S70, was adopted by the House by the aid of Democratic votes. The contest occurred on the motion to sus taiu the previous question. If it had failed to receive the necessary vote, it is almost certain that the disfranchising clause would have been expunged. On that ballot 01 Republicans voted to bring the bill before the House in order to amend it, and 18 Demo crats voted with them; while 70 Republicans opposed the motion, and 14 Democrats were on their side, nad the Democratic party really designed to secure the triumph of their so-called principle, and not supply themselves with buncombe at the expense of political faith, they would have voted solid with the conservatives ; the vote would have stood 83 in favor of amending, and 70 opposed. The responsibility of failure, therelore, rests with the Democracy, and when they grow elo quently Indignant over the unconstitution ality of the proviso, let them remember that they, and they alone, are accountable for the so-called encroachment on the law. This policy of the Democracy is not a new one. When their old friends Davis. Slidell, and Benjamin occupied tho seats to which their sympathizing Northern brethren desire them once more to fill, the same plan was In vogue. When the CLARK-radical resolutions came to a final vote in the Senate, the body was divided so that the ballot stood, ayes 20, nays 19. Six Southern members, among whom were Davis, Benjamin, and other leaders, refused to vote against the mo tion, and so it prevailed, in order that their own political ends might be accomplished. ;-LE MM J gyggW Q TELEG RAPH. PHILADELPHIA, SATURDAY, Again, when the vote on eK'onding suffraje to the negroes in the District of Columbia came up, they, the opposition, offered a motion to amend, so that the dearest right of citizenship was given to the educated and ignorant alike. In fact, this duplicity has gradually grown to be the settled policy ol the Democratic party, and when they go to make political capital out of the measure, let their own Inconsistency be called to the pub lic mind. "The Consolidated Loa.." The fol lowing plain and sensible editorial, from the New York Tribune, sets forth the advantages of Secretary McCollooh'u plan of funding the debt in so clear a light that he who runs can read. It Is seasonable, and will be under stood and appreciated by tho masses : Oun National Dkbt The United Sfatoi owo a pnlilio debt ol nearly three b.liionn ot dollars, mo oiitorawiu 6 or 7 8-10 per cent, intnrest. Now that the war la over, the Union saved, and our ox ppuditurrg so reduced that we are more than paving out way, so that wf are contracting no more debt, but rattier raying off", the Government is about to make an eflbrt to reduce the rate of interest to five per cent., and appropriate tho money thus saved to the reduction ot the principal a polio wbcti, it aoopted and sternly permuted in. wnl n tbe d bt entirely within about thirty years. There Is some wild talk ot this project as repudia tion, but there is no shadow o! iruLh in this Kvery existing loan or obligation is to be paid acoordiux to its lace. Uvery one wno nss lent the Uoverument monev at a certain raw) is to hare that rate paid him regularly till his loan tul s due; then ho is to have his principal according t contract. But toe iiovcmmunt can irorrow in peace, with a dnmnioa iug del t cheaper than it could in war, when wu needed to borrow titty millions more each month; it tiierelore proposes to borro'V at live per cent, the wherewithal to pay at maturity iiS;'ioan drawing mx or seven and thirty-hundred hs per cent. 1'hon, by continuing to pav into tho I rpasurv only so much as wo won d i.ave io pay if the imeiest hid not been icduced, we can very soon wipe out our rieat doot. Kut can tne money ne borrowed at ftve poropnt f Mo hope it may, and trust it can be. because 1. Tue Government is sure pay. 2. Whoa, er has Gov ernment bonds, and needs money, can borrow on them a. co'latoiai at lower rates, and with m ire pare, than he could get loans on any other security. 8 lhey are to be absolutely free from taxation. Jedciai, Stato, or municipal; whereas all other securities are taxed most ot thom heavi.y. 4. They can always be sola ofl-haiid, for cash, aud with litu Iobb. These considerations, wo hope, will induce thousands to preier these at live per eeut. to otuer securities at six or seven. Yet this is so great and beneficent an undertaking that it may well command the bust efforts ol every good citizen. J hero is no man amoug in, ho ever rich or poor, who will not be benefited by the in tei ded conversion of the debt. It we estimate the debt as a mortgage ot ton per cont. on all private propel ty in the Union tunning it at Ave peroont. will add at least two per cent, to thu net cah value ol all tbe property in our country. Aow, then, pood citizens! let us a 1 be ureparod to hoip when the new American Cousol is brouht out! Ilv.elii.ve any 1 Tin oi Gover niont indebtedness coon to tall duo, let us off.-r to take sock in the new loan io its amount assured that our bouds wi.l bu stove p.ir witlii i live jears If we are not alre idy creditors o. tho Government, ict us resolve to bo come so il possible bv subscr lung to tno no v loau. No matter thouzh we have but IUIIh to iuvot, let us invest that little; assured that there are tou invest ments less profitable where one is more so. Lt us resolvo that tho new five per cent., whatever its amount, shall be promptly taxen; lor, it that should bo hilod at once, there will be no troublo thereat lor. Let Couures. be caret u I not to overdo the busi ness of reducing taxe. One culls for the abolition ot all "taxes on Knowledge. "-toat is, on printed matter; anof-cr sa, " lane olT all taxos on Manu factures;" a third says "Make Cotton Free," oto We heartily agree that these taxes are not delight ful in tact, taxes are not luxuries, any how jut that will be a dark day lor the country wjeroiu Congress so reduo s taxe-as to impair tae national credit It would nose a bankrupt or discredited Government tnora.ously to convert or rone such a debt as we must fund afresh witlrn the next lew yt-ars; and iilty millions substmcted Irotn the na tional revenue now mav cost us five hundred mil lions in the end. Keep the national oredit high, even though we have to pav a little heavier taxes, until we get our debt funded ; for it is lar borer to pay even live cents per pound on cotton than to have to pay a premium on the renewal ot our great lotus." LEGAL INTELLIGENCE. I.NJUSCIIOM AGAINST THK CITY COMMI8HIONKB3. Court ol Common 11m JuQgo Ludlow. I rice vs. I ho City ot rhiladoiphia. This morning Judge Ludlow delivered the lbllowiug opinion iu the above case: v This is an application for a special injunction RgaiUBt tho City Commissioners and the City of 1'hiladelplna. to restrain the noloudauts troni "enter ing into a omitract with Mimuel M Smith to lur nish to the Department of the City Commissioners" certain articles ot stationery specified in tho scho dule annexed io the hill filed in this suit. It is too late to question the jurisdiction or this Court in a cause like the present. Wo have exer cised tho power now invoked in more than ono in stunco, and nearly a year ago we weie called uoou to express an opinion in a contest then pending between the same parties who are now botore the Court ; und, in a caso very similar to tho present, the lute l're-ident ot the Court then delivered an opiniou upon the sutiject, in which I concurred, and it is unc le a tow to rein at wuat was then stud, or to attempt to overthrow tbe principle upon which tnat judg mem wus tounued, and we thereforo proceed at ouco to determine this con.roversy by tho evidence in the causo. It cannot bo t oubted thai the City Commissioners were bound by tho ordinance cf 80th Deceuioer, to open tho proposals in the pro once of the I oinmittee oi isumice. and to award the contract to the lowest bidder. The question is Did they do this? ll thev did not, aud the bid of Samuel M. Smith was not opened in tuo presunco of tho Com mittee, he is not entitled to the contract no matter what may have been the character ot his bid. lhe solution of tho question at issue depends upon the testimony of Mr. Marcer, the Chairman ot the Commi'tee, and of Mr. Eckstein, the Clerk. Mr. Marcer identified a paper purporting to be the bid ol Mr. Smith by writing his name and tho day of the month and year at tho end tuoroof, liut bo de clares that ho did so alter tee bids had been opened aud read, and merely for the purpose of identifica tion. He further ea: ' We dopoudod upon our clerk lor taking a memorandum ol the bnU." Aud apain, "Alter ul had been read I put iuy namo on such as (ii n the table, lho cleric makes a record ol tne uids, and it was i?ot worth whilo lor mo to siifu each bid at it was separate y presented ami read " Mr. Eckstein says, "I beard all the bids read ofr, and noted them down lor re-entry m th minute book of the committee. 1 have hero tho original note; 1 did not hear any bid ot iSau.uol M. Suutti read olt; 1 think if there had beon one road I would have beard it; 1 took each bid lor each item down sepuiaiely, and compared the bids of the several bidders togo, her to see who was the lowest; I did not near Mr Smith's name at all." This witness was recalled, and be apain said, "I made a memorandum of tho bids as presented, they were read aloud by Mr. Hamilton; tho bid of Mr. Smith don't appear on the paper (memorandum ; I don't think the bid ol Mr. Smith could have been reud without my heading it; I did not hear Mr. Smith's name at all; 1 wou.d have ueard it, I think, II it had been read." When we remember that the bid in question con sisted i.f seventeen distinct items, each ot which must have been, it read at all, distinotlv announced, it is impossible to bo ieve that tin Clerk ol the Com mittee of Finance would not have hi aid a single one, and especially must this couclusiuu lorce itsolt upon the mind, when we iurthor remember that Mr. Eckstein did not copy the bids, but uoted them down as read by Hamilton, that be did not see the origi nals, and that his memorandum contains the names ol the bidders, aud the various items ol each ot the several bids then and there read, and yet this papor does not contain the name of S. M Smith, nor a single item reprocenring any ot eot the seventeen distinct bids said to have been made. Hio affidavit of the City Commissioner doe, not, when closely exandned, contradict this state ol facts. "I will produce the bids which were opened in the presence oi the Committee of Finance as at tested by their Chairman, Joseph F. Maroor at tnat time," says the aflidavit, lut it docs not declare that tbe bid was read with the other bids, and at the gaiuo time, and Mr. Marcer simply identified papers banded to him altor the proposal bud been opeued and read; be depended upon the clerk of Ins com mittee to make a noto of the proposals, and has no knowledge ol the contend of the various papers be fore the Committee and the Commissioners, and does not remember that Mr. Smith's bid was read at all. With this evidence before us it Is clearly our duty to restrain the deleudants from entering into this contract, and we therelore grant the special injuno-. tiou upon a bond bc,DK executed by oviuplaiuauti In the sum of W0 of QusrMr Alltson, P.J .

Alter some preliminaries, Mr. MotJIannatian an nounced to the Court ibat the defoi so would prefer that warrants be make out reguiarly; and tin re quest was granted by tho Court, arraigning Mr. Nolen for murdr and Mr. Daniels as abetting in tho crime.
