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

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-

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

Ciiemical Conundrum. The National In'el-

may be miaarnatic in its nature. It propounds
the following queer query iu this relation:
Has not the air been noisome for months
with the poisonous but obscure odor of internal
machination ?

Chocolate. At the Paris Exhibition a ma
chine for packing chocolate attracts attentioo.
By means of this apparatus twenty-four cakes of
chocolate are in less than a second wrapped up,
first with silver pap r, then enveloped with a

a drop of melted wax, upon which a hammer
falls down and impre.shea tbe stamp of tbe
manufacturer.
Transposed Triteness. The Boston Post
admits that "misery loves company," butclaira9
that the feeling is not leciprocal. Thus, to
illubtrate: Jones, miserable, seekj to share his
sorrows with sympathetic Smith. Unhappily,
however, Smith does not desire the dividend
proposed by Jones. Thus, misery may love
company; butcompanv does not visit misery.

Mr. Alfred II. Love, Philadelphia, Presi
dent of the Universal Peace SociPty Sir: Iu
the absence ol our respected colleipue, Uev. 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. I press very cordially
your hand in the name of all our excellent col
leagues, and I am, in all truth, your devoted
lrieud, Frederic Passt,
General Secretary of tho League of France.
