Gleams of Returning Jleason. As an illustration of how the Reconstruction bill 8trikc8 practical men at the South, even those who w ere prominent in the Rebellion, and who cherished strong convictions of the rightfulness of recession, wo may instance a late letter w ritten by General Chalmers, of Mississippi, to Ruverdy Johnson, endorsing his speech in the Senate in favor of this bill. The General alludes to the early acts of President Johnson towards the Southern States, evi dently fully appreciating tho inconsistency displayed between his present policy and that which governed him then. He says: When General Suermin, wltn a magnani mity which, ever inurus Uie victorious hunt In the field when dealing witli ii comiuurcd "ton anuu worthy of hlsHiedl," made term of peace wlin General .loo Johnston, the 8outh hulled tlione terms with Joy, and was ready to uceu'pt them. Jiut the President said Hint General Sherman ha no authority to make micli a treaty of peace, and therefore annulled it. The President then announced certain terms of l eacewhieh were very obnoxious to us, re quiring that we should by our own acts aiiolish slavery, and dctrraiio ourselves in the eyes of the world by declaring ttiat ouruets of seces sion, which we had passed with ureal unani mity and enthusiasm, were null and void, and that our fetate Governments were nullities: and he compelled tis then to receive Provisional Governors uppoluted by him, and to organise our Governments anew. This was very distasteful to us; but we were conquered we had surrendered uncondition ally and we accepted these as the terms of fieuce, not because we desired them, but because t was the best we could do, ButCongress said that the President had not alone (be power to make treaties of peace, aud therefore they prescribed other terms. The terras offered by the President were, to my mind, unconstitutional, and those ottered by Congress are still more so. We accepted one lor peace, aud I can sou no sacrltloo of principle in accepting theljlher. - These points are well put. According to the President's own logic, all of his recon struction work was unconstitutional. The State Governments that he overthrew were legal ones, and his entire array of Provisional" Governors and Governments rested upon no lasis but that of arbitrary power. If the South could accept of all this without sacrificing principle, it certainly can of the Congressional plan of reconstruction, which at least has the merit of coming from the law-making power of the Government, and not from the unlawful action of the Executive. Adverting to tho charge that an acceptance of the Congressional plan of reconstruction would be "unmanly" the General thus dis poses of it: When one man has been overcome and un armed by another, tho only unmaiiliuess that could possibly be shown would be by the victor who would make degrading terms for the con quered foe. 1 believed firmly in tho doctrine of secession, and I believe that we did secede, and that when we wer conquered we were a foreign nation, and I therefore believe that the United States have a risht to prescribe new terms If we should miike a new alliance with her. Believing this, and knowing that the Presi dent alone cannot make a treaty of peace with a foreign Government, I never have believed that the action of the President in his efforts to recon struct the Union was right; but 1 gladly supported him and supported his plan, because It was more liberal to my people than the Congres sional plan. Suoh utterancos as these show that light is breaking in on the Southern mind. This Reconstruction bill has operated like a power ful tonic, and men of brains in the South are beginning to think and talk practically and sensibly. No matter what their old views may have been, they are willing to accept the logio of events, and to conform to the revo lution through which tho country has passed. This is all that we can reasonably ask, and all such men should be welcomed and treated with generosity. Those, on the contrary, who still seek to save the old aristocratic system, . and rebuild it from the dChris of the Rebellion those who follow the advice of our Northern Copperheads should be left out in the cold to .reflect on the error of their ways, and to feed upon the bitter fruit of their own planting. The Fallacy of Rotation in Oilice. When a young man reaches a certain age, ho is expected to select what trade or profession lie intends in after life to pursue, and he is immediately placed in some position where he can become thoroughly acquainted with the duties of his chosen business. Artisans and mechanics undergo an apprenticeship, and years are required before they can acquire sufficient proficiency to be trusted with the execution of a task. The same is true of a merchant, a broker, a lawyer, or a doctor. A special course of training is needed before such experience can be acqxiired as to merit confi dence. Especially is this shown in the great corporations of our day. H a President of a Tailroad company is removed, the stockholders select a director, or some subordinate who is thoroughly acquainted with the interests and workings of the road; and a change in the head of management does not necessitate the re moval of the old conductors, brakesmen, ,.lrks. aud engineers, and the substitution nfnw hands in ulaee of old and experienced officers. The advocates of a theory which Would lead to the discharge of all the former servants of the road with every change of the term of the President, would be set down as madmen. Yet the same idea which is ridiculed and nniinoed by citizens, when their interest in these stocks is concerned, is openly advo "fluted when the management ' of the entire country is at stake. Since the days of Jack the theory of rotation in office has pre vailed, and the change of an Administration i iwd bv a eenral removal of the "ins," rout the Cabinet officer down to the letter- The immediate consequence of the auccesa THE DAILY , KVKN1KG TELEGRAPH. PHILADELPHIA, TinJllSDAY, or this system is the continual Inundation of all tho departments of the Government with new hands, utterly unused to the tasks which ate allotted to them. They are not fitted for the duties by expo Hen 00, and Aonsequontly pot form them very inefficiently, or not at all. Au example on this point is found in tho condition of tho Post Office in our city for the past six months. Delays, losses, mistakes, and innumerable blunders have been the order of the day. What is true of tho Post Office is true of tho Custom House, revenue offices, and all the intricate machinery of taxa tion. Millions upon millions of dollars have been lost to the Government through the pre valence of this rotation in office, and millions more will go unless it is abandoned. Another grave objection to this system is that it gives the power of unlimited corruption to the President. I?y means of this vast patronage he is enabled to reward his favorites and influence elections, and that the' power thus confided to him can be aud is used without scruple, was shown in the elections of autumn last. In order, therefore, to prevent any such distribution of spoils, it is necessary that an entirely new system be called into vogue. We desire to see the same plan pre vail here as prevails in Great Britain. There a man entering a Government office is retained so long as his behavior is good. The old clerks are of forty and fifty years' standing, "and that they have been there so long is cou sidered a reason for their yet longer con tinuance, not an argument for their removal. The change of au Administration does not affect them. The great struggle for Cabinet places and national principles does not reach to the fifteen-hunhred-dollar clerks or the one-thousand-dollar messengers. . What have they got to do with reform, or vtphx Democratic or Republican policies f By the time they have acquired experience, they are bettor fitted to perform the duties of their positions than new hands could be; hence possession is considered nine-tenths of the law, and they are let alone a system similar to that provided for in the recent Civil Service bill. Promotions are made the same as in the army. Clerks rise as vacancies above them occur, until they become Under-Secretaries. Admissions are made on examination, and the candidates enter nt the foot of the ladder, and begin gradually to ascend. By this wise system the Government always has on hand a supply of experienced and competent servants, who thoroughly understand the duties of their posts, and have no inducements held out to mingle in the din of party politics. Purity in the minor officers is secured, and the spoils not exposed to a series of depredators, each of whom must be enriched out of the public purse. We think that in the course of a few years the fallacy of rotation in office will be entirely done away with, aud the same system of gradual promotions for services be in vogue lu-re as is in force throughout all the depart ments of the Government of Great Britain. The Ritualistic Controversy. Fortdkately for the peace and prosperity of the Protestant Episcopal Church of this coun try, the adherents of Dr. Pusey are compara tively limited in numbers, and exercise a paramount influence in a few of the congre gations of New York city only. But where their sway is undisputed, they are now making grand preparations for exercising it in the most unrestrained fashion. The first days of Lent are now upon us, and as this is the most solemn season of all the year, it will wit ness the introduction not only of the minor Ritualistic innovations, but likewise the robing of the chancel in black, the celebration of midnight services, and the chanting of hymns which savor strongly of the peculiarities of the Romish creed. The character of some of the more glaring of these innovations will be seen from the description, which we pub lish elsewhere to-day, of the ceremonies ob served yesterday morning in St. Albau's Chapel, the grand centre of the Ritualistic worship of New York city, git will be remembered that a week or so ago a solemn protest against the introduc tion and continuance of these innovations was Issued, signed by twenty-eight of the Bishops of the United States. With these it is certain tliat Bishop Stovena, of this diocese, would have united, if he had not been absent from the country, thus leaving but fifteen who neglected or refused to co-operate in the anti ritualistic crusade. The protest in question was directed mainly against the use of incense, the burning of lights, reverences to the table or elements of the Holy Sacrament, and the wearing of clerical Hire heretofore un known or materially different from that in common use, as Innovations which violate the discipline of the Church, oilend against its common order, hurt the authority ot the magistrate, and wound the consciences of the weak brethren. On Sunday last the protest was read from the pulpits of most ot our city cnurcnes, eliciting the hearty approval of all who lis tened to it. It is being read in like manner in the different dioceses throughout the coun try. Bishop Loo, of Iowa, however, in com municating the protest of the majority of the Bishops to the clergymen of his diocese, ac companies it with a pastoral letter, which we published in full yesterday afternoon. In this epistle he takes strong ground against the innovations, which seem to him to, "degrade the worship of Almighty God; and i not on ginated by superstition, certainly tend in that direction, and are in opposition to the spirit of the new dispensation, a well as to that of the reformed Scriptural Church." He strongly urges the avoidance of everything that is unusual and extraordinary, as tending to create a spirit of formalism at variance with the teachings of Christ and the Apostles. Aa if to add weight to the protests of the American Bishops, accounts reach us Just now t of tho proceedings with reference to these ' "unauthorized innovations" which were re cently had in the Convocation of the Province of Canterbury, which embraces the greater part of the English branch of the Church. In the House of Bishops, every diocese in the Province being represented save seven, and six of the absent bishops being unavoidably de tained, a resolution was adopted unanimously which strongly condemned any departure from the customary ritual, without the sanction of the bishop of tho diocese being first obtained. Tin's resolution received the concurrence of the Lower House of tho Convocation. While it does not specifically denounoe the new High Church formalities in suoh strong terras as are used by the American Bishops, and for such cogent reasons, it emphatically forbids their introduction before they are sanctioned and enjoined by the proper authorities of the Church, and this is certainly a great point gained by those who still adhere to the ritual simplicity aud primitive faith of the early Church. The Charge of Senatorial Hribery. A pew days since we published, editorially, the substance of the testimony made public by the House Investigating Committee in re gard to the New York Custom House. Tho inference from the report was that Senators Doolittle and Patterson had each been allotted $5000. This was stated by witnesses, and accordingly credited by the Committee. In justice to both these gentlemen, we give to-day their remarks in the Senate, in which thoy emphatically deny that there is a particle of truth in the evidence. Mr. Doolittle says: "This charge, whether made direotly or by Im plication whether MMKlit 10 be sustained by proof or inuendo is absolutely and unqualifiedly false ; and, Iron whatever source H comes, 1 pronounce it a bhse falsehood, a vile and cowardly slander, and I go further.

Upon this sub ject, ywlrrdiiy morning, I prepared a stutPinent to Kiihuiil to the .Senate, but as I 11111 told that the testi mony In not all published, 1 shall therefore withhold it, Meantime, I will only say, when the truth Is fully known there will be found nothing to reflect dishonor upon his character as a soldier or us a citizen." Mr. Patterson said: "In looking over the papers I see I am involved in the same chances that are made against the Senator from Wisccnsln, that or bavins; reieived live thou sui d- dollars Iron) Mr. tsinythe. I will dispone of these question 111 u very few worus. There is no direct charge made: it is an intended charge. Alt I have get to sav Is. It is false.

The denial, if not sufficiently chabte, is cer tainly sufficiently emphatic. The Coal Trade of Pennsylvania.

Shall the Law bb Executed ? The Rebels at Alexandria having set the Reconstruction bill at defiance in the municipal election just held in that city, Senator Wilson very pro perly introduced a joint resolution in tho Senate yesterday, declaring the municipal offices in that city vacant, and forbidding any person to attempt to exercise the authority of the same, under pain of fine and imprison ment. This rs right as far as it goes, but it is the duty of the President to execute the laws passed by Congress, and if he fails to do it Congress must provide a remedy. This issue is a vital one, and should be met at the very threshold.. The Reconstruction bill promises the most happy results if it shall be faithfully carried cut. The country will not tulerate any attempt on the part of the President to defeat its execution. Cou-ector Smythe Again. Collector Smythe, of New York, is out with cards, letters, etc., denying that he ever made a dollar from the general order business, directly or indirectly,' "and ot course never distributed what he never received." If the Collector's memory is as treacherous and indistinct now as it was when he gave his testimony before Mr. llul btird's Committee, his statements should be received with great allowance. No man can read the testimony taken before that Commit tee, and doubt that Mr. Smythe both received and "distributed" a large amount of money that came from the general order business, cartage, etc. The testimony of his own pri vate secretary is conclusive upon that point. General James A. Ekin. We are glad to see among the confirmations by the Senate the name of General James A. Ekin, to be Deputy Quartermaster-General. General Ekin has discharged the duties of his arduous posi tion during the entire war with ability and fidelity.
