"W hat ot the Future?"
The New Toik World to day, after sensibly
remarking that there is "no good of crying
over spill milk," proceeds to answer the ques
tion, "What ot the futuro P" Amid a pood
deal of Idle threatening, and a vast amount of
partlzan bombast, it gives to Its readers a few
prairie of good wholesome advice. To the
Preetdeot It says that "As you have appealed
to the people In opposition to Congress, and
the people, by returning so large a majority
against jou to that body, have virtually re
lieved you from all the responsibilities of the
veto, bow quietly to their decision, and
devote your attention to foreign affairs, leav
ing borne matters to be decided upon by Con
gress." This advice is, sound. Tho issue
has been submitted to the supreme power of
the land, the fo intain-hcad of all delegated
authority, the source of1 all prerogative.
That power has decided with emphasis in
favor of letting Congress guide the ship of
state amid the waves ot internal str'i'e. It is
now the duty of the Chief Executive to bow
to that decislon,and allow the representatives
of the masses to make all laws, without any
interference from him. Vox populi, vox Dei
is a trite precept, but it is a forcible and a
true political maxim. If the I'resident will
adopt this course, he will do more to secure
. 1 A - . 1 .
ine return oi peace ana unanimity emong
the various sections than he could probably
have done by the adoption of h's reconstruc
tion policy.
ii we oeucve inai i'resment Johnson was
honest in his statement that h's chief desire
was to rebind dissevered portion of the body
politic, and make the veins or all the land
throb in unison with tho beatings of one com-
A i .
mou nean, men no nas a c nance at tne pre

must see, as well as all the ortb, that, had
this policy been adopted, it would have pro
duced an effect directly opposite to ihat
nominally desired. Haughty, arrogant, trai
torous Rebels would have resumed away, and
the sacrifice of loyal lives would luve so en
raged the North, that we would have risen
once more in our strength, and ground these
human butchers to powder.
Every argument of lotric points to such a
consequence, had the Reconstruction policv
been a success. As, however, the North has
pronounced a decided veto on h's plan, what
alternate is left? Either the President must,
by obstinately clinging to his dogans,
continue the dissensions among the
sections, or else, by yielding gracefully, alloy
Congress to assume its r'ghtful sway, anil the
South be made to treat for terms at the other
end of the avenue from fie Whita House.
The effect would bo instantaneous. The
Rebels would proceed to qualify themselves;
to purge themselves of their contempt, and
by aubovttlng to the conditions imposed,
once more regain their rights as citizens of
the United States.
If President Johnson, therefore, desires
to see Tjence and harmony secured, if ha is
not a factious and ambitious demagogue, as
many believe, and is really an honest well
wlbher of aJ sections ot the country, he
will lend all his influence to secure on the
part of the South the ratification of the
amendment. Prolonged acitation and coa
tinuous discussion can only tend to sever the
sections tarther and far ber. The South wH
be the loser by every moment's delay. T!ie
!North will grow lud.gaant ; and, unpalatable
as it is to Southern ears, there can ba uo
doubt but that we have the power, and
Laving the powtr, will use it to suit
our . pleasure. Let the South then act
as becomes intelligent men, not lndlgaant
schoolboys. Accept the best terms thuure
offered. They know all what the ameudiniut
requires, and they do not know what will
next be demanded of thain by the new Con
gress. Let them then adopt it, even u cer
tain parts are not just such as they vould
desire, remembering the motto tint "It's
better to endure tte ills we Lave, than fly tj
othtiB ve know not ot."
The r Cect ol Political NesIiReuco.
H k are very much a'iai.1, troin advices re
ceived tiom New Jersey, tl.at we have last
Ti on. William &. Newell lu ton recent elec
tion. Ihat such is the case ij cause rather
for rpgret than surprise. Whenever we see. a
gfatleniun confident of his strength, nad so
ateurtd of victory as to neylt'Cv, and even
reluw, to properly prepare lor a close contest,
we are not much annoyed it he be deleated.
Governor Newell relied entirely to much on
his popularity and on the wtrcngth of his
party. He neglected the proper means of
securing victory, and has probably paid
dearly for bis supine negligence. In 1831 the
district was decidedly Republican, nd if, was
counted .upon as a certainty at t'm last
election. If we have lost it, as we
fear we have, it gives us but another
example of the evil effects ot over-confldtmee
of victory. If the campaign had bocu pro
perly managed, there can bo little r n
doubt but that a triumph wovM have beeu
secured. It la but another political Bannock
burn, and when we are bo flushed with suc
cess before the battle ha. opened, we descry o
to lose. Governor Newell will have but
little sympathy. During the last Congress
bis course was extremely erratic, and ho was
THK DAILY EVENING TKLEGRAPH I'mLADKM'niA, TflUftSDAY,
utterly unreliable on a vote. At one Unto
he was the right-hand man of Mr. Johnson.
He, however, returned to the fold and secured
the Republican nomination. If he has indivd
been defeated, be has no one to thank but hh
own record, and the indifference with which
he hns prosecuted the campaign.
The Proclamalton of Thanksgiving.
Thk good old time-honored custom of setting
aside one day in the year for returning thanks
to Almifihty God for the blessings He has
showered upon us during the twelve months
closing, has ever been observed in our State;
and the nroelnmatlon of Governor Curtin
appoints the last Thursday ot November, the
29th of the month, as the day for rendering
thanks. All over our land af. the same time
will the aspirations of a rlghieous people
ascend, and the prayers of a grateful people
be uttered In every State ot our nation. It
i3 a good custom, aod one around which
cluster pleasant memories in the past one
which cannot but be conducive to our pros
perity both as individuals and as a mighty
power In the earth.
We hope that its obsetvance will be even
more general than usual. We have been
saved from a fearful pestilence, which threat
ened to sweep over our fair Commonwealth
and turn many hearts into mourning. We
have been blessed with abundant crops. Our
people are rapidly recovering trom the effects
of the war, and that period in which philo
sophers predicted internal revolution and
heinous crime is passing away without any
of the anticipated evils. As citizens we are
thankful for this protection, and let us see to
it that, as a Christian people, we give all the
praise unto the Christian's God.

We doubt if any good can come of such a
reception. It may be deemed necessary by
the President that a band and crowd of
residents should hurrah tor him, but the
representatives oi the people of the North
hardly need the applause of citizens of the
District of Columbia. They come backed by
the Northern people, and fear no danger from
any men, and need no welcome but that
vor.ch-afed to them by the whole country.
The Tate of our Modern Joan D'Arc.
As every eallant reader must feel a de.en
interest in the success of Mrs. Elizabeth Cady
Stanton in her contest for member of Con
gress in New York, we give the statement of
the Times as to the fight she made. That she
should have received eight votes seems to us
as though there were but eight chlvalric
gentlemen in her district.. If success
had only perched upon ber banner, how
delightful it wonld have been to receive let
ters franked "Elizabeth Cady Stanton, M. C '.'
And with what unction we would have read
the speech of the Hon. Mrs. Stanton on the
opt dug of the Erie Canal, or some other
truly feminine issue 1 Do not despair, madam

MethusaltJj, and double your vote every
year, you may yet be elected . Solace
your spare hours with the calculation, and

the Chevalier Raymond :

Correct. All of the various pupors in
our city have made estimates as to how the
exact vote in the House of Representatives of
tho Fortieth Congress will stand. We yester
day, editorially, footed up 140 Republicans
to 44 Democratic. To-day the .New York
Tribune, after an elaborate calculation,
makes out exactly the same totals. We may
therefore feel assured that so able a statisti

mistake, aud that oar estimates wees exactly

Tdk Public Debt. The November state
ment of the public debt shows that it is
reduced to $2,551,810,000, and that there is
about $100,000,000 in gold in the vaults of
the Treasury. We wonld view this accumu
lation with satisfaction were it not for the
inbldious remarks of Secretary Browninz
that the President appreciates the dangers of
nia position, and is, therefore, accumulating
gold at the capital. We do not know exactly
what the Secretary meant, but the iemarks
look like the liou's claws from under the
lamb's skin. The decrease during the past
month has been $20,000,000; not as rapid as
it was auring September, when It reached
million dollaos a day.
Otk Democratic contemporary congratu

the column. We are atraid that the honor
vouchsafed is not a very exalted one.
It Is like the boy who was next to the head

THE JUMEL WILL CASE.

As the "Jumel Will Case" is likely to take
rank anions the celebrated trials that have
occupied the attention of the Courts of this city,
a br;ef rehearsal of the main features of the case
may not be uninteresting to our reuders at this
time, although it uivolves i nly a repetition of
tacts published months go.
Madaire Jumel, as mauv of our readers may
recollect, diet in this city on the Kith of July,
18ti.. at Hie aue of ninety -one years. She left
an estate valued at a milf:on dollars or more
mostly landed property and houses in thin city
the uulK of wnicu she bequeathed by wilt to
various charitable institutions, and but little of
w bub was left to her relatives, or those who
claim to be her relatives aul lawful heirs.
As is usual tiuaer such circumstances, the heirs
have resolved to contest the will, the ground ot
contest m this case oeinar that the will was
made during the lait days of the testator, wheu
her mental capacity unfitted her tor sucn
an act; that it was in direct opposition to
a will previously made when she was iu
sound mind, aud that it was made at the iu
stipatiou and under the influence of interested
purlies having no relation by blood or marriage
to the testator, anl to whom she was under no
oblinat ions whatever. But it is not so much
the will itself, or the amount of property in
volved, as the personal history ot the testator
that Inveots this trial with pecudar imere-t
M'me Jumel was one or the most remarkable
lemale characters that figured in our Revolu
tionary era, and was posvsed ot benuty and
accomplishments that would have made their
mark in any era. Born at sea ot a mother
who oied in givinsr ber birth, sue wa3
brought up as an orphan, in the quiet town
of Newport, R. l., until tho aae ot 17. when
she eloped with an Emrlish officer aud came
to this city, where her career a a woman of
lashion commenced, aud where she first came
in contact with the di.-tinguhhed men of the
Revolution. Here and iu 1'hiiadelphh she
lormed tho acquaintance of Washington, of Jet
lerson, of Benjamin Franklin, of Latayette of
J'atricii Henry, of Aaron Burr, aud tiiauy more
of tbe lesser lights of that day, all ot whom
admixed her beauty and accomplishments and
mauy of whom were captivated by her charms
None of them were, however, aetepted by heras
husbands, if they ever made the oner, and alter
several years speutiu illuminating the fashion
able circles of that eia, she finally allied herself
with a rich Flench wine merchant of this Cltv
aud Miss Capet became Madame Stephen Jumel'
The happy pair shifted then residence to Paris
where Miidame Jumel shone not lc brilliantly
than here enlivenma tbe Court of Loulo Phi

became moody and low spirited. Madame Jumel
like a goon, economical wi'o. turned her atteu
ttou 10 finance, came buck to New Yoric, took
cuarg" ol the remnants of lief husband's estate
nurtured and cherished it till it gresv once more
into living proportions, and then invited the
melancholy wine merchant to come over and
euiov it with ber. Ho came, and the two lived
togetlu r until bis death, at the age of 70. While
a widow she renewed her acQuaintauoe

when he ottered her his baud a second time

Mrs. Burr, although her "Mars and Apollo" was

however, and the wedded life was of short dura
