The Democracy Seeking to Raise I'ulne
Issues.
It is to be regretted that our political discns-
8iona in this country are not characterized by
a greater spirit of candor. No part ever
gains anything by ascribing to its opponents
views which they do not hold. Our real differ
ences are grave enough without being aggra
vated by misrepresentation and falsehood.
There is something, too, about a false issue
Which is distasteful to the honest and robust
thinker. The lighting of a man of Btraw evinces
intellectual cowardice, if not weakness. Thus
the Pemooratio organ in this city strives most
nncandidly to make it appear that the Repub
lican party is not in favor of an honest and
incorruptible judiciary. To do so it is obliged
to falsify the Republican position, as in the
closing sentence of the following extract:
"Tde business of Judges is tolnterpet the laws
according to those well-known principles whioti
underlie and give security and stability to the
whole structure of soolety. Tney are to be pure
men, free from personal bias or political preju
dicts. They may and will have politic! opi
jiions, but these opinions are never to Influence
their judgments or govern their actions lu a
party or personal direction. The Constitution
of tbe Stale and nation, and the laws enacted
by oom potent legislative bodies, are to be tnelr
rule of action. No man's cause Is to be preju
diced because he may diner from the Judge upon
the bench, nor are laws to be looked at through
the misty atmosphere of party clamor and ex
citement. Before and tn the eyes of the law all
men of all political faiths, all religious beliefs,
are equal, and in that attitude they must be
viewed by a Judge If Justice is to hold a place
upon the bench. To this expoxiUon of the char
acter and duties of a judge the radicals will not
agree."
Now, did the writer of the above extract
suppose that he was telling the truth when he
said that "to this exposition of the character
and duties of a judge the radicals will not
agree" f Did he mean to be candid and truth
ful ? Does he for a moment really believe that
the radicals "will not agree" that it is "the
business of judges to interpret the laws
according to those well-known principles
Which underlie and give security and stability
to the whole struoture of society''; that "they
are to be pure men, free from personal bias
Or political prejudices"; that their political
opinions "are never to influence their judg
ments or govern their actions in a party or
personal direction"; that "the Constitutions
of the State and nation, and the laws enacted
by competent legislative bodies, are to be their
rules of action"; that "no man's cause is to
"be prejudiced because he may differ from the
judge upon the benoh"; "that before and in
the eyes of the law all men of all political
faiths, all religious beliefs, are equal, and in
that attitude they must be viewed by a judge,
if justice is to hold a place upon the bench"'
We say, does he really believe that the radi
cals "will not agree" to this ? Of course he
believes no such thing. He knows better.
Bigoted and malignant partisan as he is, he
tloes not believe one word of the statement
which he puts forth. It is pure invention
unrelieved misrepresentation, and shows that
the writer is an intellectual coward, and dares
not meet his opponents upon the real issues
of the campaign. lie builds a man of straw,
labels it Republican principles, and then pro
ceeds in the most valiant manner to demolish
it. If the man had confidence in the opinions
find principles of his party, he would discuss
and defend them, instead of ascribing false
opinions and principles to his opponents.
The qualifications which he sets up for a
Judge are mere truisms; nobody disputes
.them. To argue that judges ought to be
"pure men," that "no man's cause is to be
prejudiced because he may differ from the
judge upon the bench," etc., is like arguing
that two and two make four.
The truth is, the Democrats have weighed
down their candidate for judge with a plat
form of political opinions so repugnant to
every principle of justice and right, that it is
a perfect millstone about his neck. So obnox
ious is it to the more liberal and progressive
members of their own party, that their organs
dare not discuss it. They are already seeking
to cover up and hide the very issues they have
invoked. Like a lawyer with a bad case, thoy
are running off upon side questions and false
issues, and attempting to cover up the real
matters in controversy. But the shallowest
device they have conoooted is this one of de
claiming against a partisan judiciary. If they
dislike a partisan judiciary, why did they
make a partisan nomination and a partisan
platform? Why did they force a partisan
contest upon the people f Does anybody sup
pose they would have nominated Judge Shars
wood had he been a sound Republican ?
Let us have done with this nonsense. Let
our Democratic) friends toe the mark, and
defend their rotten platform if they can.
They have chosen to make this contest a politi
cal one; now let them bring out their record,
md that of their candidate. Instead of beat
ing about the bush, uttering truisms which
very body believes, and lighting men of straw
of their own erection, let them come out and
anake a manly and opn fight upon the prinoi
jdos of their party. There is no contest a to
the fitness of the nominees for the position, aside
from their political opinions. Both nominations
r. re partisan ones. Each candidate stands as
ilie representative of the declared principles of
i ; Wr. Every true Union man and Repub
?! aS should vote for Judge Williams, the
,7in of the Union Republican party.
'Cry man who believes la the miserable,
,.ive and disgraceful platform upon
Mch JuS iSarBwSod stands, should vote
for him.
ralUmYJBVEOTNG TELEGRAPH
Rebel Persecution of Prominent South
erner. Tire liiHnr m.K.-t vti. .tin tlia breaaU
of bbe masses of the late Rebels may be seen
in the bigoted and unscrupulous persecution
Which they heap upon such of their late lead
ers as have had honor and manliness enough
to "accept the situation" In good faith, and to
urge others to do so. General Longstreet just
now seems to oome in for the chief abuse of
these nnoonstruoted Rebels. Tho Augusta
Chronicle and Ssntinel, in its last issue, after
likening him to Benedict Arnold, for his
"wanton, wicked desertion of his friends and
his country," etc. etc., says "that it learns
from a distinguished Confederate General, who
has Just returned from New Orleans, that the
Judgment of 'popular indignation' upon this
recreant southerner has already been pro
nounced upon him by his former friends and
associates in that city, and that, so sh-ong and
marked is their denunciation of his course,
that he has been compelled to leave the place
and seek shelter in some interior village."
in one view we ought, perhaps, to weloome
just such displays of rancorous Rebel hatred as
are evinced in this case. Such men as Lom?-
street can but have their friends and their
influence. Denunciation will only serve to
separate them more widely from those who
still cling to the old idols of slavery and a
Southern Confederacy, and throw them into
more intimate association with that risinz
power of genuine republicanism which is
bound to become dominant throughout the
bouth. Everything which breaks up the old
Southern unity is to be weloomed: and
nothing can more effeotually do it than such
unjust persecution of men who have hereto
fore achieved distinction as leaders of public
sentiment at the South. It is not in the
nature of high-spirited and able men to sit
down tamely under political and sooial ostra
cism, when they have on their side the intelli
gence, virtue, the moral power, and the Dhv-
sical force of a great nation. The elements of a
powerful and ultimately dominant Republi
can organization are abundant in every
Southern State. All they need is discipline
and leadership, and these they are likely soon
to receive from men like Lenzstreet. whom
the old dominant element of the South is
attempting to ostracize and put down.
A New Discovery.
Pkesipekt Joiixsos ha3 discovered an exten
sive mare's nest in the assumption that, if the
present so-called State Governments of the
late Rebel States are superseded by legitimate
organizations gotten up in accordance with the
provisions of the acts of Congress, the old debts
of the old Southern States that existed before
the war will become a lawful charge upon the
Government of the United States. The Presi
dent must be hard pushed when he resorts to
such axle vice as this to influence the action of
Congress. The State Governments that con
tracted those debts perished at the commence
ment of the Rebellion. They were revolutionized,
and Rebel State Governments, foreign to the
Constitution and laws of the United States, set
up in their places. These Rebel State Govern
ments were as illegitimate a3 the Rebel Con
federacy itself. They in turn were overthrown
by the armies of the United States at the close
of the Rebellion. Next came the present
organizat'ons, illegitimate, unconstitutional,
and revolutionary, set up by President John
son. They are as foreign to the Constitution
and the laws as were the Rebel State Govern
ments. They are the unlawful work of the
President, in the assumption of powers
expressly forbidden to him by the Constitu
tion. Congress now proposes to assist the
people of the late Rebel States to organize
legitimate State Governments. There have
been none such there since the Reballion com
menced. Ever since the overthrow of the old
loyal State Governments revolution and usur
pation have ruled. Now we are coming back
to law and order. The debts under considera
tion were lawfully contracted by the Southern
people,- and by them they will have to be paid.
We have no idea that the people of any of the
Southern States will attempt to repudiate these
debts, though evidently invited to do so by
the President; but should suoh an attempt be
made in any Constitution framed un lor the
Reconstruction act, that would be good ground
for refusing the State admission into the Union
under such Constitution. The supposition
that by the overthrow of Mr. Johnson's illegal
organizations the general Government beoomes
responsible for debts contracted by the Southern
States under lawful Governments years ago,
long before the Rebellion, is too absurd to be
combated by serious argument.
The German-Ameiican Population.
At the present time we have in our city a
large representation of the best portion of the
German-American population of the States.
Gathered together as they are by a desire to
unite in an innocent and worthy emulation
for the prizes distributed to them as musi
cians, we have a good opportunity of contem
plating the characters of this most important
class of our citizens. Already the Germans
have become a most influential and useful body
of people. Coming to us as they did through
a desire to secure that perfect liberty denied to
them abroad, they not only are with us but
are of us. They have become at once iden
tified in all their interests with their adopted
land, and have thoroughly imbibed all its
principles. Unlike other foreigners, they have
discriminated good from evil; and failing to
be deceived by the specious name of
Democracy, have, as a class, sided
strongly with freedom and freedom's
party. . They have thrown the weight
of their influence in favor of the Republi
cans, and contributed in no small degree to
bring the late war to a successful termination.
We cannot forget that it was the German
population of Missouri that saved that State
from secession, and that it was the German
clubs of St. Louis that prevented that city from
falling under Retel control. As a class they
are frugal and industrious, and it is seldom
we see a German reduced to absolute want.
In innocent amusements, suoh as the compe
tition whioh has drawn them to our city, they
excel, and stand unrivalled for their success
in harmless pleasures. They are a class whose
continually increaning size brings to us no
fears, feeling confident as we do that the pro
gress of our nation will be hastened, not im
peded, by an increase of the population of her
German-American citizens.
Public Ilaths.
The ordinance forbidding boys bathing either
in the Delaware or Schuylkill, as at present
enforced, is decidedly defective. We have as
much regard for modesty and all that as any
one, but we are at a Iocs to see why, after
nightfall, boys and men should not enjoy a
bath in certain portions of our river front.
At present every urchin who dares to venture
into what ia necessary to health and enjoy
ment is liable to be arrested and mulcted in
a heavy fine, no matter at what time he
offends. It is essential to the preservation of
health that the people should have opportu
nities of frequent bathing during the summer
months, and nature has furnished ample facili
ties in supplying us with two large rivers.
What we need is not an absolute interdict to
all such aquatic sports, but how they should
be enjoyed. If the law were to be so amended
as to allow bathing belore, say 5 o'clock in the
morning in certain parts of the river, the
object of the ordinance would be accomplished,
yet at the same time the people not be de
barred from the advantages of a swim. At all
our watering places such a privilege is ao
corded, and it is much more necessary in Phi
ladelphia than it is at Cape May or Atlantic
City. We doubt the feasibility of swimming
baths free to the public. The only baths
which will bo within their reach for a very
long time will be the rivers. It is a grievous
error for police regulations to encroach on
sanitary necessities. We repeat that the
present law is defective. What is wanted is a
proper restraint, and not a total prohibition,
which, from its very stringency, must prove
ineffectual.
PERSONAL.
Difficulty Between Mr. C. W. Field and
Air. Ueorge Jones.
iVom the Ji'ew York Times.
It has been well known in certain circles for
orae time past that the Associated Press, and
certain of its members in particular, were
aggrieved by the police punned by the Direc
tors of toe Atlatmc Csble Company, lading
directly trom a desire to harmonize the diiHcul
tiep, the managing members of the press were
invited to dine with the Cable people last week,
at the rooms of the Union Leneue Club. Oo
that occasion, the lead inn host, Mr. Cyrus W.
Field, naw St to indulge In remarks that were
so unquestionably insulting to his guests, and
pointedly ollensive tj Mr. Geiree Jones, the
publish r of the Times, that he promptly re
sented it. Through the eli'oTts ol Mr. Peter
Cooper and Mr. 1). D. Field, thecompauy sepa
rated without further annovance.
Subsequently Mr. Jones, desirous of affording
Mr. Field an honorable retreat from the ques
Uonnblo position he occupied, demanded an
apology for the insulting epithet he had upplied
to a gentleman when sitting a guest ut his oouid.
This Mr. Field declined to give.
The sequel of the affair is thus reported by an
evening contemporary:
From the Evening Gazette, July 13.
In consequence of some difference between
the managers of tbe cable and the press, the di
rectors last week invited the leading members
of the press to a dinner at the Union League
Club. During a speech of Mr. Cyrus W. Field
he ?aw fit to make use of language which Mr.
George Jones, publisher of the Times, deemed
Insulting, and subsequently to give Mr. Jones
the lie. The timely interference ol Peter Cooper
and D. D. Field prevented a fracas at the time.
Tbe next day Mr. Jones demanded, through
Mr. Raymond, an apology, which Mr. Field de
clined to give. Thus matters stood until this
afteinoon, when tbe parties met in front of the
telegraph office. Mr. Jones instantly seized Mr.
Field b.7 the nose and pulled it, In the presence
of a gatbering crowd, and greatly to tbe incon
venience of tbat sacred member. Before anv
one could interfere a puenacious pull satisfied
tbe ire of Mr. Jones, and the interested parties
separated. Thus ends the second chapter.
1I1E INDIAN WAR.
Captured Indiana Bought and Sold by
Soldiers.
The War Department has just received a copy
of Circular Ho. 3, issued last month by General
McDowell, commanding the Department of
California, to post commanders in Arizona.
General McDowell communicates to them the
lollowing parapraph from a letter addressed to
him by Governor McCormick, of Arizona:
I find that at Fort McDowell and at other
posts they (Indiau captives taken Dy tbe troops)
have been turned over to civilians without any
process of law. I learn of instances in which
children bave been sold by tbe troops; of ottiers
in which tbey have been exchanged for goods,
and, in cases where they have been given to the
Pima and Maricopa Indians, thoso tribes have
afterwards sold them to the white-'. Moreover.
1 have been informed that at McDowell it has
been the eustom to deliver the adult female
Apache captives over to the Pimas and Mari
conas for slaughter.
the General bas directed commanders of dis
tricts and posts in Arizona to Investigate thee
charges at once, and reoort to him all the par
ticulars. In conclusion, the General says:
Theee charges, as well by the hoinotisness of
the otlenses specified, as by the high source
from which tbey come, are most damaging to
tbe character of the service, and must be tully
Investigated and answered by every officer to
whom this circular is sent. ,
When General Grant was in Charleston
he was entertained by General Sickles. Next
door to the residence of General Sickles re
sided a secesh family, the children of which
evidently under instructions from their Benlors
made mouths at General Grant every time
he appeared on the stoop or at the window,
and used other insulting gestures against the
commander-in-chief. They even accompanied
it by abusive language. Next day not a stone
or splinter of that house would have been
visible, if General Grant had not personally in
terfered to prevent the soldiers from pulling it
down. It may be stated that General Sickles
neither owns nor pays rent for his fine resi
dence in Charleston, or did not do so at a re
cent date. The building had been vacated by
a conscience-stricken Calhounite, and is still
retained "on Government business," as has
been explained in response to the demands
made by the owner when he recovered from
his scare sufficiently to broach the subject of
restitution or rent to the oommauder of the
Carolina.

Lancaster Jixpress last evening.
Mr. Abraham Hunt, of Louisville, JTy., on
Wednesday last received almost simulta

informing him of the sudden death of his son-in-law,

man who went to Richmond to cast in his lot
with the Rebels at the commencement of the
civil war, has received a call to a church in
Lexington, Va. The call is supposed to be
very nattering, as General Lee lives in Lexing

signified his intentions on the subject of ac
ceptance. A church is to be erected in TiOnilnn tn
