THURSDAY, AUGUST 15, 1867. Chief Justice Chase. A pakaobaph has been going the rounds of the papers for some days in regard to the for tune of Chief Justice Chase, representing that whereas t the commencement of the war lie WU worth onl7 some ten thousand dollars he L. now paving an income tax on seven hun dred, thousand dollars. Whether or not this Charge originated with Thurlow Weed of the New York Commercial Advertiser, is immate rial; he endorsed and expanded it, sending it forth to the world piquantlj larded with sneaking Inuendo and cowardly hint, sug gesting slanders which he dare not boldly utter, and falsifying by implication where he lacked the audacity to openly lie. To the oredit of the National Intelligencer, though bitterly opposed to Chief Justice Chase politi cally, it had the honor and manliness to come out and fittingly rebuke the hoary libeller of the Advertiser, and to express that confidence in the integrity and moral worth of the dis tinguished head of the Judiciary which is felt by the community generally. Other leading Demooratio papers have followed the excellent example set by the Intelligencer, so that the miserable libel has been suddenly kicked out of all decent sooiety and Bent baok to its pa ternal roof for shelter. The fact that Thurlow Weed charges any one with dishonesty is almost proof positive that he ia honest, for if we have in this coun try any one politician whose name is the uni Tersally accepted synonym of venality, it is Thurlow Weed. In New York he is known &s the ''Father of the Lobby," which means the father of that system of corruption, bribery, and theft that has made the 'lobby," both at Albany and Washington, so infamously notorious. lie is now an old man, but his avarice grows with his years, and he has ar rived at that state where he thinks the whole world is as corrupt as himself. The idea that any man can occupy a publio station and not steal, when stealing is possible, is inconceivable to Thurlow Weed. He has lost all conception of honesty, if he ever had any. The idea that an officer should have executed a great publio trust, involving the management of the finances of the nation in the midst of a tremendous war, and not have made himself rich out of it, is so utterly beyond Weed's comprehension, 80 incongruous, so opposed to all his instincts, BO absurd, that his libel of Chief Justice Chase is probably less malignant than on its face it would appear to be. He doubtless thiaks that Mr. Chase ought to have stolen, if he did not ! Salmon P. Chase has been in publio life for nearly thirty years, occupying in succession the high offices of Governor of the State of Ohio, Senator in Congress, Secretary of the Treasury, and now that of Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States. Through out his whole career he has displayed some of the noblest qualities of statesmanship. His record is a consistent one. lie espoused the cause of human liberty in this country in its darkest days. He was its champion in the United States Senate when he stood almost alone. He has lived to see it triumphant over all opposition. He has remained faithful to it throughout. Unlike his distinguished co laborer of former years, the present Secretary of State, no cloud rests upon his later career. And while he has thus displayed the virtues of consistency of aotion and of devotion to principle, he has been also a striking example of those rarer virtues in publio life of moral integrity, of personal uprightness, of sobriety, temperance, and trutn. it mere is a man am one us who deserves to be called A " Christian statesman, Mr. Chase is the xaaa. Added to all this,. Mr. Chase ia a statesman of great practical ability. He ia not a mere theorist, or rhetorician, or speech. maker. He has a thorough acquaintance with all the problems which go to make up the actual duties of the American statesman. Ilia administration of the finances of the nation during the most critical periods of the Rebel lion was of the very highest order. The great Stumbling-block upon which our . foreign ene mies prophesied that we would fall, was the raising of money. The men we had in abun dance, but modern warfare is an affair of finanoe aa well; and here it was supposed that we were weak and would fail. But Secretary Chase carried us safely through, and absolutely gave to the country, as one of the fruits of the great Struggle, the soundest and best system of our rency that it has ever had. Had he remained at the head of the Treasury Department, and had he succeeded in maintaining in all its branches throughout the country the faithful ness and integrity of exeoution which he in augurated, we should probably ere now have witnessed the resumption of specie payments, and a permanent and material reduction of the burden of taxation. Transferred by President Lincoln to the higher and more responsible noaition of Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, he has added new dignity to that dlatuiBuished office. Hia decisions have been able and impartial, and fortified by opinions worthy of the highest fame of his most renowned predecessors. And at the pre- innv or no man iu wuuui wo i i r. .!,, piij. ur course, me do In umei uouw ... t: at. are opposed to his political views, but were he called to the offioe of Chief Magts- trate, tiittf would feel that the Jieua oi siaw THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, was In the hands of a wise and honost man. There may be men who have more of the elements of surface popularity, orators of more show, politicians more expert; but there is no man in our country at the present time in whom the elements of a wise, safe, and comprehensive statesmanship are s well com bined as in Salmon P. Chase. When 1VJI1 It Kemedied? At the last session of the State Legislature an effort was made to avert iuh ueiri,mru vi mo and property from boiler explosions, by the passage of a law providing for their proper inspection. Cut our city authorities, with that proverbial neglect of the interests of those by whom they were placed in power which has at last become criminal, have taken no aotion in the matter, although their attention has been called to the subject, again and again, both by the press and by Juries of practical and intelli gent engineers. In the Sansom street disaster more than twonty-five lives were lost; and the death of each and every one of the unfortunate victims of this sad occurrence was the legiti mate effect of the criminal neglect of which we are speaking. The result of the Coroner's investigation showed that there was a radical defect in the construction of the boilers used in the establishment a de fect which would have been detected by the most casual inspection. But our City Fathers learned no wisdom from a contemplation of the charred and mutilated remains of more than a score of their fellow-creatures; the lamenta tions of a score of Buffering women, and the pitiful cries of twice as many fatherless chil dren, did not touch their hearts. They still con tinued to disgrace the city by their mockery of legislation; and while they are rolling about in the luxury of their summer vacation, an other calamity of the same character visits our community, by which one man is sent to his last account in a moment, and two others are brought to the very verge of the grave. Last evening, the Coroner's jury to whom was committed the investigation of the causes of this last disaster, returned their verdict, which will be found in full in our local columns. This jury was made up of men who are engineers by profession, and they assert that the explosion is to be attributed chiefly to "gross carelessness and a want of practical knowledge concerning steam and machinery on the part of those having charge of the boiler." That an accident endangering the lives of our people should result from such a cause, is as disgraceful as it is melan choly. There should be an ordinance prohibiting, under the severest penalties, the running of steam machinery by any one who has not been found fully qualified, by study and experience, to discharge such duties. It is asserted by the friends of the unfortunate victims of the Ninth street explosion, that they were unable to pay a practical engineer the high wages demanded by that class of mechanics. If that were the truth of the matter, they were unable to carry on the business which they had undertaken, and tha law should have stepped in and preventel them from risking their own lives and peril ling those of their neighbors. But the jury say further that the engine was "totally inadequate to perform the work required of it, without causing a greater pres sure in the boiler than it was able to bear." For this state of affairs there was but one remedy, and that was a thorough inspection of the boiler and machinerv bv men comDe- tent for the task. That there are scores of WW boilers within the city limits which are thus overtasked, and that there are numbers which are defective in construction, as was the case in the one which recently exploded on San3om street, we are assured by those who are fami liar with the subject. Other disasters mav therefore be anticipated, and no man whose daily labor takes him within reach of steam machinery can assure himself that he will not be the next victim, unless the members of Councils undergo a sudden reformation, and pay some little attention to the duties for the discharge of which they were elected. In concluding their verdict, the jury in this case protest against the custom of taking prac tical engineers from their employments to in vesugaie me causes oi Doner explosions, "as if 1. i1 . their verdicts and recommendations in former cases are totally disregarded by our city authorities, who have been implored time and again by a bereaved community to enact Borne wnoiesome law to remedy tma growing evil." And they eive the nublio a timelv warning that future explosions "must necessarily occur under the present system of management." We are at the mercy of those to whom we have confided the care of our lives and property; and again we demand to know if they intend to discharge the plain and clear duties which they have assumed ? Lieutenant Commander Alexander Slidell Mackenzie, who was killed early in June Inst, in a conflict with pirates on tho Island of For- mesa, was a native of New York, and a nephew of Hon. John Slidell, of Louisiana. He was born on the 24th of May, 1842, and entered the navy on tho 29th of September, 1865. During the late Rebellion he served gallantly in the engagements at Forts Jackson and St. Philip, and in the attack on Fort Sumter and Morris Island, Charleston harbor. At the time of his death he was attached to the flagship Harford, wnicu be joined at New Orleans in July, 1805, ior a cruise in the East Indies. He was email In statuie, and rather sparsely made, but brave and generous In disposition, and was popular wiiu uib classmates. ewbfafer item.

Mr. Murtin, I have tbe pleasure of opening your valuable letter, and I extend to you our thanks. We thank you for those frlondiy and earnest words of encouragement that you thus send us in the name of our American brethren, on the receipt of tbe first intelligence of ouretlort". Helieve me, they will be ot gTeat assistance to 'us In the diflicult work we have undertaken. Yes, our hearts are united, notwith standing the distance which separates us, in the nmo determined convictions. Yes. like you we reprove, we detest war, and declare it contrary to all tbe design of Providence, and all the erand aims of humanity. Likoyou, we love, honor, and preach peace. We see in it tho rcalizntion and tho con dition of all progress permitted and commanded to our race: regard ior our neignoor ami our tclves: morality. Justice, well-beinp, the subordi nation ot matter by spirit ; and also, as you have rightly said, the true and pure love of country that which consists in wishing one's country great and free in a family of free and prosperous nations in place of drawing, on it the vain rucci ss of lorce, the inevitable expia tion of Justice, and the maledictions of the oppressed and coaquerc I. The people, like the individuals wbo compose them, are desiened to aid and not to injure each other to cultivate in common the globe on which they have been placed by the one Creator, not to destroy them selves, aud cover it wiih ruin to be, in a word, according to the sublime declaration of the great Aposile, 'Joint heirs and members of the banie body," The.-e Idea? hav long been scoffed at by the crowd. Those who defended them have long been treated as Utopians and dreamers. They have persisted; they have gained In force and number, and soon, like the hist Christians, of whom they are the veritable followers, they will be everywhere, and will till all places, even to the camp of the warrior. Already among us, as among you, the most eminent men among those who have borne arms, these whose bravery is the most incontestable and the most univer sally acknowledged, aie beginning to think, and to say in public, that the trade ot war Is a ead one, and that human life has been created for another object than to be given up as a prey to all the ca pi ices and the covetouaness of am bition. Let us hope that before long, respect tor lite wiil be tbe law of human societies, and the unanimous reprobation which attaches itself to the individual murderer will pursue, perhaps etill more fiercely, over all the surface of this earth, those premeditated and skilful homi cides, called wars. While this day is coming, as come it will, for the pre:ent interest, 1n accord with reason, la iii)p'es!-iu more wisdom upon the nations, we have, tdr, in the two worlds lo which you and I belong, much yet to do to accomplish tho triumph of our holv cause. War has covered Europe and America with blood, perhaos in spite of our etlorts it will cover them again perhaps while we speak of peace and justice, passions and prejudices are at work prepaiin new catastrophes aud new lamentations per haps at the first cill of our pacile voice, the violent and belligerent will even this year aiiBwer by the most terrible slaughter, and cast ior tbe last time at tbe world tbe defiance of brutality and of blind egotism. It matters net I our work is founded on the rock and it will not perish we have the word of the future, and these words shall pre vail. Let us form of all thoe who carry these words in their hearts and on their lips a grand chain of friends and brothers, enveloping, acioss the material and moral frontiers, the cimraon country, as with an irresistible bond of love and union. Let us form against tbe partial armies which a narrow and false patriotism still puts in the field, as in ancient days, tbe grand, the universal militia of the new era, the militia of peace, aud let us crush by Its number, or rather carry along by beneficent prestige, alt tlioi-e res'stances which are hereafter to be pow eilets. Let us put away from us, by one com mon sentiment the war which is at our doers. Or if by misfortune war should break forth before we have asserted our influence aud gained position, let us be ready at an early day, when the com batants are returning towards us, to deplore their having neglected our counsels, and finally to throw into the balance the irresistible weight of a true univeral suffrage, the unanimous suf frage of all men of all nations. This is the object of your society; it is the object of ours; it is the object of all those in England and else where are aiding us with their efforts and with their vows. It is in this that we feel and speak, sir, and respected friend.
