John Van Daren Ills Political Career.
Tub death of John Van Buren removes a
man who, without holding high office, or
being a great leader, had still achieved a more
than ordinarily prominent position amonsr the
politicians of the country. Ills bioeraphy is
brlofly told : A son of the late ex-President
Martin Van Buren, born in 1810, graduated
at Yale in 1828 ; Secretary of Legation to his
father, who was Minister to England In
1881-2; elpcted Attorney-General of the State
of New York In 1845, and since that tlma
occupying a high position in bis profession as
a lawyer.
It was In the political Held, however, that
Trince" John; as he was familiarly called,
achieved his greatest distinction. The rejec
Hon of Martin Van Buren in 1841 by the
Democratic Presidential Nominating Conven
tion, on account of his supposed unsound
ness upon the question of the annexation of
Texas, laid the foundation for the organiza
tion of the free-soil Democracy of the .North
The lupture came in 1848, when, upon the
distinct platform of "no more slave territory,'
Martin Van Buren was nominated for the
Presidency by the Buffalo Convention. Into
this contest John Van Buren, then in the
height of his powers and his popularity, the
idol of the young men of New York, entered
with all the enthusiasm of a knight going
forth to battle. He stumped the State of New
York from Lake Erie to the Hudson, and
from the St. Lawrence to the Delaware,
addressing immense assemblages of the peo
pie, and making a series of speeches which,
for brilliancy, power, and true eloquence,
have rew equals in the whole range of political
oratory, lie boldly struck the key-note of
that "irrepressible conflict" which a few years
later was to shake the nation to its centre.
Bis utterances during that memorable cam
paign read now, In the light of later facts,
like the words of inspiration.
The result of ihe lree-noil movement was
the division and overthrow of the Democratic
party, and the consequent election of General
Taylor to the Presidency. John Van Buren
was now at the flood-tide of popularity. lie
was Idol'zed by the people of his nttive State,
having, in addition to his brilliant talents, a
personal manner and address most engaging,
and was recognized throughout the country
as the rising leader of the great revolution
that was even then gathering strength for
the final onset between freedom and slavery
in the nation. Had be remained true to the
principles be then avowed, and the position
he then occupied, there is hardly a doubt that
he would have been called to one ol the flint
offices in the gift of the people. But he
failed. Some fatal defect of character some
want of faith in truth blinded his
eyes to the true path of honor and power,
and he threw away the finest prospects
ever eDjoycd by any young man in the coun
try, lie went back to the fold of the Demo
cratic party, abjured the glorious principles
with which he had inspired the hearts of the
people, and sunk to the rank of an ordinary
though brilliant politician, never more to rise
from it. He frequently appeared upon the
stump during political campaigns, but he had
lost his hold upon the popular heart. He was
witty, argumentative, eloquent even, but the
people had lost all confidence in his sincerity.
They laughed at his stories, enjoyed his spark-
ting "good things," cheered his fine passages,
and then went away and voted the opposition
ticktt . In 1850, during the Fremont-Bu"
chanan campaign, he was announced to speak
at a great Democratic mass meeting in one
of the western counties of the State. The
day before the meeting the local Republi
can papers republished one of his most im
passioned free-soil speeches of the great cam
paign of 1848. The result was, that instead
of making one of his usual sparkling efforts
In behalf of the Democratic party, he con
sumed his whole speech in a vain and neces
sarily feeble eflortto reconcile the consistency
of bis course.
When the Rebellion broke out he had a
chance to regain something of his former
position, but it was not in him. He vacil
lated, hesitated, and the current swept by
forever.
lie dies early, being but a tew month over
flftj-six years old.
Facia In Regard to the Unseaworthiness
ot the Lost Steamship Evening Star."
As all the facts respecting the recent loss oi
the steamship Evening Star are made public,
they seem to reflect with great severity upon
the company by whom she was owned and
run. She appears to have borne the character
of a very strondy built and trustworthy boat,
so that she was quite a lavorite with travellers
between New York and New Orleans; but
instead of deserving this reputation, she was
really a weak boat, had been badly damaged
on previous occasions, and only some tour
months ago 'broke her back" by running
upon a reef. As soon as she encountered
this severe storm she began to behave badly,
working and straining to men a degree as
finally to break the connecting pipes or the
engine and disable It. She was rigged with
only a single steering apparatus, which got
out of order in the height of the storm, and
left her at the mercy of the sea. She had
life-preservers for her cabin passengers, but
THE DAILY EVENING TELEGltAPII PIIILADELPIIIA. WEDNESDAY,
not for the others, nor for the crew, and those
she did have proved to be worthless when
they came to be tried. She had a short
handed crew, many of whom were "green
horns," the company having; refused to pay
the prices demanded by competent hands.
This is a bad recital of tacts for the steam'
ship company, and makes them responsible,
to a great extent, for the lives of the nearly
three hundred passengers who were lost A
rigid Investigation Into all the circumstances
of this appalling calamity should be made
and If the facts prove to be as reported, no
punishment hardly can be too severe for those
who, for the sake of gain, so recklessly trifle
with the lives of their fellow-men
Work Well Done.
The detection and apprehension of criminals
is a taak the difficulty of which is equalled
only by the delicacy which Is necessary in
administering such punishment as will best
tend to secure the ends In view prevention
ol future offenses and reformation of past
offenders. In both of these respects we
think the city of Philadelphia can lay claim
to great good fortune. It would be entirely
superfluous for us to go, Into any speclflca'
tlon of the qualifications of the judges of
our principal criminal court During the
political contest which has just closed, their
merits as lawyers and as citizens were fully
discussed, and the result of the election
showed the estimation in which they were
held by a targe majority of the law-abiding
people of the city.
But perhaps the best evidence that can be
brought forward to show their zeal in the
protection of the lives and property of those
to whom they are indebted for their high
judicial positions, Is afforded by a glance at
the results of one month's work in the Quar
ter Sessions. During the August 'term
seventy-nine convictions took place In this
court One of the prisoners was convicted
on two separate indictments ; to three a new
trial was granted ; and in three cases the
sentence was deferred. The seventy-two
cases In which sentence was pronounced are
classified according to the following table, in
which the terms of imprisonment are re
duced to the uniform standard of months:

intent to Btonl
Kocciv'g Stolen Oooda.
General Totals..
The original hearings in thirty-one cases
were before Alderman Beitler, at the Central
Station ; and nearly every one of these cases
was worked up by Chief detective Franklin
and his assistants. Surely no better proof of
the efficiency of our Detective Corps of
Police could be desired. It should further
more be remembered that many of these cases
required the most persistent and delicate
manoeuvring before they could be brought to
a successful issue. The cases of George S.
Roberts and John Mason afford a striking
illustration of this fact Some weeks since
we gave a sketch of these two notorious bur
glars, and or the ingenious machinery,
the like of which was never be
fore seen in this country, by means of which
they were enabled to carry on then nefarious
calling. Alter months of. careful and unin
terrupted tracking, they were at last appre
hended, and a day or two ago their trial com
menced, the indictments against them being
taken.up, one by one. When placed in the
dock, they exhibited that brazen-faced impu
dence foi which the English "tlcket-of-leave
man" is notorious throughout the world.
They were without counsel, and Mason con
ducted his own cross-examinations with a
coolness that was certainly refreshing. Sut his
shrewdness did not go far with the jury, who
were abundantly satisfied of the guilt of the
paities, and rendered their verdict accordingly.
To-morrow morning their trial on another
indictment will be commenced, when a scene
very edifying to the lovers of law and order
will probably be enacted. Not the less inte
resting part of it will be the exhibition by the
detectives of the engines ot burglary which
were found la the possession of the prisoners
at the time ot their capture. Before detec
tives and judge are dote with them, they
will be convinced that fortune served them
an ill turn when she led them all the way
from Van Dicman's Land to the TTnlmii
States.
The Italian Opera.
Di ucT or Sionoba Carmkn Poch in ")l Tbo
vatohk." A very large and fashionable audi
ence waF piesent at the Academy of Music last
evening, to grace the occasion of the debut of
the greatest prima donna aUacuod f Max Ma
relzek'g Opera Troupe Signora Carmen Pocli.
This ladj is very pretty, plump, and carries her
self with ease upon the sfae. She is a clever
actress and an excellent vocalist. Her voice is
a strong and sweet soprani, which has scarcely
ripened Into the acne ot ,t3 ntilltj and force.
Her ren.iuion ot the rote of '.Leonora" last
evening stamped bnr as a rreat artiste how
ever, ami showed plainly that most respectable
triumphs are yet in store lor her.
As cn the rkst night of the opera, the applause
was both Kcnerous find peneral tne encoring
being carried rather beyond the usual bounds
at the "Italiens." tnora Poch achieved her
tlit victory last evening tn the aria concluding
the first act, which cue executed with ereat feel
Iur and Bue judgment. She repeated it for an
encore, and was again called from her hiding
place behind the scenes to receive the plaudits
of her many ani enthusiastic admirers.
Throughout the opora her execution was excel"
icnr, ouvin me last act occurred the crownlu
feat. We allude to the Miserere duet between
Poch and Ma.zolenl. This was vociferously
encored and repeated.
Blgnoia Katale-Testa (MUs Heron) made a
perfect "Azucena," Her vocalization was ad
1 V. 1 - M
ii iihuiu, too ner exeoution equal to any we
bavecen. She sang with great spirit and feel-
in?, ana made quite a hit. She received a stun
ning ovation in the fourtb act, and already
ranks as a favorite artiste. The applause was
given n the beet stjle, and Testa has cause to
be pioud of her achievements.
ftiazzo'eni sang with much pplrit, and was in
excellent voice. He was the especial favorite
of the ladies, who appreciated fully all of his
beautiful and splendidly executod boobs. Ills
acting was even better than usual.
ueiimi, rosaatu, and Band were each very
acceptable in their roles, and received a fair
share of the applause. Altogether, Trovatore
was a great success, and will bear a repetition.
mis evening Aubcr's new version of Fra
rtavo'o will be given, and Eonconl will assume
his niost renowned rote.

fulling off In the Irwh flour trade since 1847.
Ihcre were then 744,000 acres umh-r wheat, pro
dticlnpt nearly 3,000,000 quarters. In 1865 the
breadth ot wheat was reduced to little more
than one-third, the produce betnp something
more than 800,000 quarters. Tentyyear airo
a larse amount of fine flour wa exportod,
almost ctery stream having its flour mills. Now
all this Is changed; the mills are deserted, the
premises are surrendeicd to the landlord as
not being worth the lent, and the water runs
lo waste. This Is especially the caso tn Tip

the land under wheat is now slightly less than
