The telegraph brought u, last week, an in teresting item from Washington, to the effect that the Tresident visited the grounds of the German, eharpehooters during their recent -i7.e festival, and having been provided With a .MiHWnt rifle, fired three times in sucoes- Bion at the buirs-eye, hitting it ever time. Some of the newspapers, wishing to make his aocuracy appear still more remarkable, add to the brief report of the telegraph the informa tion, derived from special eouroes, that Mr. Johnson, before he hit the bull'si-eye, had im bibed several glasses of lager, and that after i.a had done shooting be was louaiy cneerea, nil Belted WllU luuumcmuw iwuijuDM So fr from disapproving of any part of these nrooeedings, we cordially approve the whole As for the lager, we are glad to hear of the President taking anything so weak, and though, with a politeness that does it credit, the telegraph says nothing of how near the amiable sportsman was to the bull's.eye when he hit it, we are bo pleased with the oonde aoennion of the thing that we will express no rude doubts as to his skill. With a magnifi cent rifle in his hands, his spirits genially ex cited by a few glasses of lager, a very large bull's-eye placed comfortably near, and an admiring world at gaze, we think the epeotaole of the President hitting the mark three times in auooession a picture that ought at onoe to be consecrated by the talent of Mr. Powell, and set np in whatever vacant space Mr. Leutze may have left in the Capitol. And yet, we cannot but contrast the Presi dent's suooess in hitting this particular bull's eye, with the lamentable failures he has made whenever he has tried to hit anything else. He has fired off innumerable guns, pop-guns, and Bquirts, but the mortifying result has uniformly been that the only game he has brought down has been himself. The recoil of his pieoe has floored him without fail, lie has repeatedly been hoist with own petard. First, he tried his hand at Congress; but that obdurate body, so far from being afraid of him, seems to have concluded that the safest place for it to stand was directly in front of sis rifle's muzzle, as 'twas plain whatever he aimed at he was sure to miss. Then there is Phil. Sheridan. The President has failed so signally to hit that bull's-eye that it makes his success at the German Festival seem either miraculous or accidental. Sheri dan is a splendid target to aim at; there is no reason, apparently, why the President should not hit him. Congress has left a sufficiently magnificent rifle within his reach, if it did not actually put it in his hands. No doubt he has taken plenty of lager, if not something else, While, if he should once hit that shining mark, no one can doubt that he would be showered with Rebel bouquets in plenty. But, thus far, he has done nothing but put his rifle to his shoulder, and bring it down again. Some say he is afraid: others sav that Grant won't let him fire; but, whatever may be his reason, that bull's-eye is yet to be hit. The last mark the President has missed has been Mr. Stanton, whom he has at last hit, but with only the most ludicrous result. There stands the target our venerable marksman walks straight np to it with a confident air, and takes aim at it with the sublimest assu rance of success. But, alas 1 as the smoke clears away, a very different spectacle is pre sented from what his admirers hoped. It is not Mr. Stanton who is sprawling in the dust, but the valiant Tennesseean himself, who, though apparently ignorant that he is shot, will sooner or later feel the wound. The Surratt Trial. From the Time. The endeavor of "Washington correspondents to explain the result of the Surratt trial by a reference to the geographical origin of the jurors, is puerile. As a matter of fact, nothing is or can be authoritatively known touohing the ballots of the jurors; at the best, the reports in circulation are gossip and conjec ture. But assuming the correctness of the statement that the eight who were for acquittal were born in certain localities, while the four who favored a verdict of guilty were born in other localities what then? Doe3 it follow that the eight are less likely to respeot their oaths, or less capable of judging of the evi- aence, man meir ieiiows r is it not quite as probable that the four were in this position ? Or if it be said that the eight wore intent upon acquitting the prisoner at all hazards, is it not equally fair to assert that the four were intent upon convicting him, with or without evidence f The argument cuts both ways, and is too silly to ue used serious ly. liesiaes, trie accoin panying intimation that on a charge of oon spiracy alone an unanimous verdict of guilty would have been at pnee rendered, disproves the other feature of the story. Whatever partisans may say on the subjeot, the great body of the publio reoognlze wide room for doubt in the testimony adduoed. That Surratt is guilty of some crime is uni versally conceded, but it does not follow that he should be hanged for murder, whether the evidence waB conclusive or not. , The angry Btate of the publio mind which would have in sisted upon that conclusion is happily ended. "With the restoration of the forms of civil law came fair play even for a suspected murderer, with all the chanoes of the jury system. To interfere with that system avowedly to secure a conviction in this case as some indiscreet writers suggest would be utterly indefensible. The Springfield Republican remarks justly that any new trial on which the Government may enter should proceed on a charge of par ticipation in the conspiracy, leaving complicity in the assassination out of the aooount. Otherwise, another trial "would be a useless expenditure of time, money, and temper, and altogether an unsatisfactory experiment." Vadir Wblih Klnr, Baxonlan f Speak, or Die I ' pram Pie Herald. The popularity of General Grant is a sharp thorn in the sides of the politicians, and goads them on to say and do many foolish things. Greeley gives vent to his petulance after a curious fashion. Ue says : "How happens it that every renegade from radicalism is so vociferous for Grant f What is 'the mystio tie that binds' our Weeds and Bennetts, our iacksliders from everything Republican but the loaveB and fishes, in such loving accord that Grant is our only man for President f la l. nnitment to profitable reflection f" When Greeley insinuates that we have any ;vi..1a with the "loaves and fishes" of Republicanism or of any other party, he makes i .inini ridiculous. tfut when he muuu tuwi'v THE DATLV EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, WEDNESDAY, couples our name with that of Thurlow Wend, be becomes impertinent and Insulting. We have never had any aHSoclatlon with any political party whatever, Whip, Demooratio, Free Soil, Abolition, Know-Nothing, Republi can, Radical, or Woman's Rights, while Greeley has been floundering about in the mud and filth of all of them by turns. Our mission has been to support good measures, without regard to the source from which they came, and to denounce bad measures and bad men, irrespective of political considerations. Our independence of all party has enabled U3 to stand firmly by the interests of the people, and we have never accepted any "loaves anil fishes" from any administration, nor soiled our hands by any association with any party broker or lobby agent. To be sure, President Lincoln tendered us the mission to Paris, as Johnson offered Greeley the mission to Vienna: but in both cases the honor was declined. We support Grant because we recoguize in him a soldier and a patriot who is independent of party, and over whom political wiro-workers can exercise no influence nor control, and we shall press his claims to the Presidency with the more vigor because we find the whole pack or political bloodhounds snarling and yelping at his heels. What la Ileal ly Htnnt by Policy. . ait Inflation From the Tribune. "When you hear a man talking of the Con stitution," said the Andrew Johnson of a few years ago, "spot him he is a traitor 1" The statement was rather sweeping, but there was a kernel of truth in it. And so, when a poli tician demonstrates against high Federal taxes, and wants the currency kept inflated to ease their burden, or insists that the national faith shall be violated, by exposing to taxation bonds which are exempted from taxation by the express terms of their issue, you may be sure that repudiation is his real purpose. The Ucrald has a shrewd letter from a Western correspondent, who says that the Western Copperheads mean to run George II. Pendleton for next President, and to use the general repugnance to paying taxes as party capital, lie says: . "They desire to raise an Issue on which they can demand a dlstluollve Democratic politician as their standard-bearer. To Mils end they are beginning to agitate the policy of a repudiation of the national debt, a complete wiping out of all our liabilities, and a recommencement all round under a return to a specie basis. "The boldest among the western Democrats do not hesitate openly to avow the doctrine of entire repudiation. They believe that It will carry the masses with it, and sweep everything before It. 'Go into any publio meeting,' say many of their prominent men, 'and you wlil And nlne-lentlis of those present in lavorof repudiation.' Ask them why they should grind out their lives and pi noli their families in order to pay the debt Incurred for a war which they had no baud in making, and which has only enriched the politicians who brought It upon us, and they will nearly all range themselves upon our side. Htlll the cau tious politicians desire to approach the sub ject by more Indirect paths. The policy they now advocate is the wiping outof the whole national debt bv an Issue of greenbacks to the amount of twenty-five hundred millions, can celling all the interest-bearing bonds, and stopping the circulation of the national banks, thus saving the country the twenty millions annually squandered upon those institutions. This Is well understood to be the programme upon which Pendleton is to be put forward for the Presidential nomination, as foreshadowed by tne position or his conuuentiai organs, nut behind this stands the ultimate result of repu diation, which will be rendered more easy of accomplishment under tbe depression which such an inflation would occasion lu the na tional currency." Our readers will bear witness that we have steadily opposed all these "indirect paths" to repudiation as only more knavish than direct, unblushing rascality. The American people, in order to sustain their national ex istence, were constrained to borrow twenty- five hundred millions of dollars. They ob tained this vast sum on the best possible terms eagerly accepting bills for loans from native and foreigner, Republican and Democrat, War Unionist or Copperhead. JNo man can say that he might not have had all the bonds he chose to take on the same terms with those who did take them. Now it is the imperative dictate of honesty and good faith that we shall pay these loans precisely as we contracted to pay them. The pretense of paying them by issuing twenty-five hundred millions of new green tacks, redeemable in notking, and proffering these to every publio creditor, dollar for dol lar, in lieu of the principal and interest in gold that we owe him, would shame any swindler who ever uttered counterfeit money, or passed off bogus checks. No one will countenance any of these devices for evading debts instead of paying them, who is not in heart and soul a villain. Any Republican or War Democrat who lends them a shadow of countenance proves himself an ingrate, a villain, and a fool. We are quite willing to see the Copperheads place themselves on a platlorm or repudiation, for it is high time that a career of infamy unuuiu ue ciosea in a aeatn oi sname, The Ashley-Conover Conspiracy. From the World. Not the least extraordinary circumstanoe connepted with the Ashley-Conover conspi racy to suborn witnesses to implicate Presi dent Johnson in the assassination scheme, is the manner in which the whole matter has been treated by the leading journals of both political parties. The Democratlo press natu rally heBitates to accept as trustworthy any thing coming from such a source as Con- over a convicted perjurer, sentenced . to At. J it . , iuo penitentiary, ana to whom a par don lias been relused. The radical journals, on the other hand, dare not say that Conover's remarkable statements about Ashlev. But. ler and Company are false. The tribune,' to be sure, Speaks of the whole as "a pre tended revelation of radioal wickedness," but it does not claim that Ashley's notes to Conover are forgeries; , on the contrary, it admits that Ashley wrote them, and characte rizes them as "brief and meagre," and says that they "can only be linked with Conover's charges by powers of imagination" which the Tribune thinks would be extraordinary for Mr. Stanbery. Nor does Mr. Ashley deny his oon neetion with Conover in this affair. Butler is yet to be heard from in relation to this matter; Holt is on the ground, and he refrains from F"nt; and Riddle, who is a member of the Washington Bar, makes no sign. If the "pre 1 ion of radical wickedness" was H6d Up. ln,the Attorney-General's office, or those <he ?aPita1' between Conover and LUOHtt WHO Warn li.i .j j il .. whvdid nn r ".'u.,n tne reveiauon, ,.jV YUUer reoeive lila Vanraivl a mTC " onAbVe ftl1' lf H i ''pretended pletely-expose itT m This latter question la . swer.

We have yet to learn whether Conover's ptuiishment for perjury was not procured ex pressly to put him out of the way, because he knew too much of what had beeu planned and purposed. " It would be interesting to know if Ashley, Holt, and Riddle were sin cere in their application for the pardon of Conover, and if this very application was not a trap for the President. It could be said by his enemies that he pardoned Conover from fear of him; that be bought him off from producing those terrible witnesses who were to tell all the dreadful things they kuew about Mr. Johnson's connection with the as sassination scheme. We have Conover's side of the story; now let us hear what his friends and partners, with whom he seems to have quarrelled, say about it. There is a trite adage about one class of people falling out and another class gaining thereby. With the statements of Ashley and Butler, as well as Conover, the public may get a real rather than "pretended revelation of the radical wickedness" which, not long ago, threatened to impeach the President as a conspirator with assassins. Anomalies In the "Wheat Market. From the World. Our market for breadstufls presents no end of anomalies at this time. That which is noted in our report of yesterday's business illustrates how completely we are dependent upon the new crop of wheat for bread. There is very little old flour, or flour from old wheat, in the market, and so great is the com petition for the old, that medium grades from spring wheat bring as much as Hour of choice grades from new winter wheat. To illustrate. The highest grades of old flour from spring wheat sold yesterday at $13 per barrel, while double extra Ohio, from new wheat, could be bought at $12. Extra State that had become sour sold from nine to ten dollars a barrel, while new "seconds" of winter sold at $$25. Of course, every day improves the ' new flour, and it will grow in favor with the bakers. Until they use it, however, no great increase can be expected in the size of loaves. There ia another un usual feature to the trade. There is scarcely any wheat on the canal bound for tide-water. The last statement gave the quantity at 35,000 bushels. The statement of the stock made up yesterday showed that we had in store only 08,000 bushels, or about one week's supply for four millers. Whence, then, the supply f It is coming forward by rail, mainly over the Erie Road. This road brought large quantities of corn to this market last spring, when specu lators had carried up prices to extreme figures; it has received sufficient encouragement to make special arrangements for the transporta tion of grain in bulk; and it is well that it has done so; for, without the supplies thus de livered to us, our local millers would now be idle for the want of wheat. The past has in deed been a memorable year in the markets for flour and grain; and we must hope that we shall not again come so near to the famine which we have barely escaped. Alleged Bribery and Corruption in Itichmonu. Richmond, Va., August 13. Tbe cae of Col- lector James, indicted for malfeasance in office. was tried yesterday in the United States Circuit Court. Captain Smith, the principal witness for the prosecution, wits examined to prove the reception of a bribe ot $1000 on the part of the Collector. The witness stated that James re ceived the money on the pretense of its being offered in recompense for the use of his patent separator,. an apparatus for discriminating high Irom low wines. One of the party, who sub scribed the $1000, testified he had no other mo tive than that of securing the use of James' separator. After this the case was adjourned. Three counts in the indictment were quashed at the opening of the proceedings, and but one count, that of the alleged bribe, remains, upon which the trial is based. Kelly, who assaulted Captain Smith, ex-Internal Revenue Inspector, as mentioned in a pre vious despatch, was discharged, Smith (ailing to appear as prosecutor, being apprehensive, it is said, of unpleasant domestic disclosures. General GlUmore and Negro Suffrage. Fremont, Ohio, August 1. The Lemocralio Messenger of this city, in one of its issues of this week, contains an editorial notice of a serenade given to Major-General Q. A. Gillmore, last baturday evening, at the residence ot Captain Flint. Alter stating that the General thanked the serenading party "in a neat and sensible speech," the Botice closes with the gratuitous statement : " He does not go lor nero suflrage." This assertion is directly opposed to the General's well-known sentiments upon the sunraue question, and so entirely at variance with his official couduct and antecedents while In com mand ot South Carolina tor two terms.embracine a period of nearly two years' duration, tuat I deem It but an act ol justice to that officer that his speech should be published correctly and in lull, in order that this attempt, for purely party Eurposes, to place him in a false position before is many warm friends and the public, may not succeed. Ueneial Gillmore was perhaps the first amone the officers ot our Government to give an official sanction to the exeicise of im partial rights of sutlruge by negroes. I reler to the election for Mavor of Fernancltna, Florida, in the spring of 1865, where whites and blacks both voted, and which was formally confirmed by an official order from the General. What the General did say and all that he said on the occasion of the serenade, is as iollows: "My Friend:-It Is not my Intention to nmie a speech to you; and 1 iirenumti uona is expected rroai uie. 1 cannot, however, allow tills piensluif opportu nity to puns without giving utterance to W , " and craielul thank for tin beautiful aud PreM"1, compliment, aud lor the kind and friendly seulluieuw towardH my stall which it Indicates, it 1 a" peeled on my part, as I am awturud It 1 n""'?,1," tuied on yourb, aud Is therelore the more ' .,,1 priz-ed !y me.
