TUESDAY, APRIL 30, 1867. Legislative Corruption. Thb following communication, In roforenoe to the ground recently taken by us in regard to the corruption in the State Legislature and its remedy, contains a good deal that is true, as well as a misconception of the steps necessary to remove the evil: To the Editor of T7ie Evening Telegraph: We are now havlnn our annual newspaper nltackH upon atleluuet LcKlslnture. Judging Irom the past, tt la aafe to predict that lu three or four weeks the whole excitement will be over, and In the coming autumn the men who are now denounced r corrupt will bo re turned to Harrlnbtirg without Berloua opposi tion from the people or the preBs. UurlugHie next session of the Legislature these men will. If required, pass eighteen hundred private bills, for all which they will be well paid, und next spring the papers will give them the UBual "blowing up," and then subside for twelve months. This is Hald In no captious pirlt, but simply because it is true. Last spring we bad in substance the same latmMitatlo'iH over a corrupt Legislature, and yet, when tho game corrupt men were renominated, not a paper (so far as the writer kuows) toolt ground, even timidly, against them. It is much better to throttle scoundrels who are about to rob you, than to send paper buU lets after them us they run away with their plunder. It Is no easy matter to break up the corrupt political combinations that now exist. But it can be done, and the first step Is to secure the hearty, continuous, and bold co-operation of the press. The very moment that the papers of this elty will open their batteries upon bad men of either party who are nomi nated, in articles as fearlessly written as the article in to-day's New York Tribune, on Legislative Vlllany," rest assured that half the work Is done. The press very properly con trols public opinion upon questions of public Import. No political convention can be called to gether, even In these degenerate times, that would be so reckless as to put In nomination for any office a man whose nomination, for reasons stated, was generally opposed by our city papers. Thousands of us who in politics agree in nothing, except our desire to see an able and pure body of men In our legislative chambers, havo been for years anxiously wait ing for "the day to break, and there is solid ground" to fear that we shall die without the Bight. It is, indeed, true that the popular indigna tion which follows the close of a legislative session almost entirely disappears before the next election, and that those who are most indignant in April against bribery and corrup tion, vote in October for the return of the men who have at least tolerated iniquity, if noi participated in it. Our correspondent grows positively indignant over such fickleness, and throws all the blame on the newspapers. If, however, he would think for a moment, we doubt if he would hold the editors of the city to blame. What alternative is presented to the journals of Philadelphia, when we see two political parties nominate two candidates, each of whom is equally objectionable ? Between two political charlatans, the purity of either of whom we would not trust, what choice is left but to support the one who pro fesses correct political principles ? The papers can object to a man, and point out the evil of sending liim to Harrisburg. They cannot nominate a good man, and if they venture to name one whom they consider fitted for the position, it k at once ascribed to personal favoritism, if cot corruption. The responsibility does not rest with t he papers it is with the people the people who are indignaut at the course of the journals, and who throw all the blame on them, when really it rests entirely on those who complain. Oar correspondent says that he, with thousands of others, is waiting the day of political purity, and asks us when it will arrive. We return the question, and ask the same of him and those who think like him. The reformation will commence just when the honest voters go to the primary elections and fight the fight there. It is at the delegate elections that the battle is decided. It is there the candidates are selected. Let the gentlemen who desire reform attend these meetings, and defeat the objec tionable candidate, and put a good man in his place. It must be a very bad man whom we must go outside of the party to defeat. The contest for purity must, if possible, be fought within the party lines. There have been few instances where the citizens of a party are so disgusted at the nomination as to elect the opponent. It is at the delegate elections that the reformation must commence; and until the people take the matter in hand, the only thing the papers can do is to point out the evils and continue to advise the remedy. This we will continue to do, but we cannot expect success until the dissatisfied cease to complain and begin In good faith to apply the remedy. Colored Emigrants to Liberia. It is some time since we heard of the coloniza tion plan which soma ten years since was ex citing so much attention. Another solution to the vexed question of what we should do with the negro race has been worked out by the stern course of events. We see that it is sound policy to receive the blacks as citizens, and make them become pillars o! the State, rather than drive them to a foreign sVore. To uuch, however, as desire to find a home in Liberia, among their own people, we can see no objection to the Gratification of thtji desires. The company of colored soldiers that left Philadelphia in December last to settle in Liberia, reached their new home pleasantly by the Kdith Rose. Charles A. Harrell, for merly of Klkton, Md., writes thus: "I am very happy to say that wordsoaunot de scribe the good and kind treatment of the people, and the kind welcome of the Government and the President. Monrovia Is a fast-growing city. An for the land of Liberia, in regard to fertility, u is the best 1 have ever seen. Vegetables are irnurine the whole year round. Allthecom Ehiiv are In good spirits. Tell my friends In Vh ladelphla that if they wish to procure a good home, as a free gift. Africa Is . the only place tor them. We now reside at Uoxley THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAM. PHILADELPHIA,' TUESDAY, right on the FInley road to Oeas Mountain. Klnleyls very highly spoken of na the most healthy and best region In Liberia." A new company of colored soldiers, "Lin coln Company, No. 2," ia now forming in this city, with the intention of leaving on tho 1st of May. The leader waa for two years in a colored regimont, sharing in the siege of Vicksburg and the battle of Nashville. Jons Hum Hoaxrd. As an instance of the inability of an Knglishman to comprehend a joke, which peculiarity Sidney Smith said only belonged to a Scotchman, we notice in the late London papers an article treating seriously what is reported to be the maiden effort of Mr. Morrissey in Congress. They take for a genuine oration the burlesque speech invented by Mr. David Scattergood of this city, aud originally published in "Our Supper Table Series," and from thence copied into some of the New York papers as a genuine oration, and base thereon forebodings of the result of Americanizing Parliament. Their summary of tho speech is very funny. Copy ing the sentences of our "Series liditor" as being veritably so, they go on to say: "Mr. Morrissey has been making a most extraordinary display of himself In the Ameri can Congrees. As fast ns any deputy spoke tho pugilist interrupted him with some coarse pro fessional slang. The House got excited and angry, whereupon this worthy declared he wouldn't be 'handed over to any cuss In the House,' and appealed to the Hpeakor to prevent him from being 'crowded to the ropes' lu that manner, lie said he did not care for any rules of the House, but be would send up to the Speaker the last number or Jlcll's Life, with tho rules of the P. H., which he hoped the Clerk would read, as also the full score of the 'mill' between the Staley bridge Infant and the lirum iiiHiiem Chicken. This was too much even for Congress, and the drunken blackguard was curried off by the 8ergennt-at-Arms." A Practical versus a Political Opinion. It is but a day or two since our Democratic contemporary had an editorial complain ing of General Sickles' recent order abolishing imprisonment for debt, and prescribing cer tain necessary regulations concerning civil affairs in his district. How the people to be be affected by this order regard it may be seen from the following extract from the Greenville Enterprise. It says: "The ndmirable and beneficent regulations established by Geueral .Sickles will do him last ing honor. Instead of using his high powers to oppress, he Is using them for tho protection and peace of the people. He isdolmc what the legis lature of South Carolina refused to do. He shows far more respect for t lie snlieriugaud diwtress of the country than the majority of the public men of this State, who, contrary to manifest Justice and right, wilfully continued the heathenish law of imprisonment lor clout in all cases," Ay Unexpected Aid. Grave apprehension has been expressed in certain quarters of the Republican party, lest the blandishments of the Democracy should secure the negro vote in favor of the supporters of the President. To all who feel anxious we have good news. The President is about to start on a tour through out the Southern States. It is anticipated that he will harangue the people along the route. Such a course will bring back to the fold any of the blacks who feel inclined to wander, and will make a unit of the Republican paity in the South, the same as it did of the same party in the North last summer. As soon as the news is confirmed, all anxiety may be laid to rest. The President will save the orators of the North the necessity of canvassing the late Rebel section. LOUISIANA.
