"Parchment for Battledores."
Thh spectacle of Mr. Toots writing letters to
WmselT-nd lgg m "Duke of Welling
ton," frith the endorsement "Official," as pre
sented to us by Dickens In "Dombey & Son,
oertaini shows human nature In a very funny
ragary, hut for real comedy is left completely
In the shade by the sight of a President of the
United States Issuing a proclamation for the
sole purpose of signing it "Done In the City of
Washiagton Andrew Johnson." Yet the
high, reward of surpassing Mr. Toots is re
served for Mr. Johnson, in the extremely long
doounient published by him yesterday. The
acme f absurdity is achieved in that effort.
Douglas Jerrold or Tom Hood could not have
oonoeived a joke more supremely ridioulous.
Selwyn's best bon mot pales before it, and the
repartee of Churchill becomes second-rate.
We could not, with all our knowledge of the
extraordinary construction of the Executive
brain, antioipate that the madness would thus
break out in this fresh plaoe, and the appear
ance of the eight "Whereases" and the "Now,
therefore, I," only show us what extraordi
nary freaks can be produced by a brain ill
balanood. But looking at this manifesto in the light of
an official document, we will try to find out
what it means. To do this we will look at the
preambles, for their object is to set forth the
evil whioh the proclamation is intended to re
medy. Now,: the first preamble states that
"the President is Commander-in-chief, and
that be is bound to see the laws faithfully ex
ecuted." No clue there to what he is driving
at. The seoond states that "the Constitution
is the supreme law of the land." Well, we
won't argue that point either. Next, "The
judioial pewer is vested in a Supreme Court
and oertain inferior courts." Our knowledge
of the Constitution acquired in early infancy
told us that. Then, " The officers of the army
and navy are bound to obey their superior
offioera." Whioh we do not purpose to deny.
Then follows an assertion that, "whenever, by
reason of unlawful obstructions, combinations,
or assemblages of persons, or rebellion against
the Government of the United States, it shall
beooma impracticable, im the judgment of the
President of the United States, to enforce by
tie ordinary course of judicial proceedings the
laws of the United States within any State or
Territory, the Executive in that case is author
ized and required to secure their faithful exe
cution by the employment of the land and
naval foroes." '
So far there is no room for discussion. The
empty platitudes to which the proclamation
gives utterance are all axioms, and would
have been taken for granted by all sane men.
But the gist of the whole matter is contained
in the next preamble, and we ask our readers
to look at it carefully:
"And whereas, i nape J lmenU and obstructions,
serious la their oharaoter, have recently been
interposed in the States of North Carollua and
South Carolina, hindering and preventing, for
a time, a proper enforcement there ot the laws
of th irnitl HtAtea and of the judgments and
decrees of a lawful court thereof, in disregard
of the command of the President of the United
btatea."
At first blush, it naturally is asked at what
does this aim ? Is there a rebellion in South
or North Carolina ? Is there such an unlaw
ful combination of persons as to disturb the
execution of the law f If not, at what is Mr,
Johnson making his attack ? It cannot be that,
like Don Quixote, he is charging on a wind
mill. Yet there really seems nothing for him
to proclaim againBt. In view, however, of the
compendious opinion of Binckley, and of the re
meval of General Sickles, we have to come to
the conclusion that this pronunoiamiento is
aimed not at the enemies of the United States,
bat at its officers ; not at "unlawful assemblages, "
bat at regularly authorized and commissioned
servants of the Government. That it is on
General Sickles and his subordinates that the
attack is made.
Now, there are several considerations which
arise in this connection. In the first plaoe,
have they any "unlawful obstructions, combi
nations, or assemblages of persons" in those
States requiring the calling forth of the "land
and naval forces?" If so, the "assemblages"
most oonsist of the "land and naval forces'
themselves, and as they are called in to sup'
press themselves, we have the cheerful phe
nomenon similar to that of the curious South
Sea animal which, when pursued, is said to
swallow itself. If we have not these "unlaw
ful assemblages," then we must have a "re
bellion," for these are the only oooasions
Stated in the preamble on which the President
is to call on the "land and naval forces." As
there ifl no rebellion, it must be that the army
Will have the opportunity of proving, by con
quering itself, that it is greater than he who
taketh a city.
Now as it is against General Sickles and his
m this extraordinary assault is
directed, the question naturally arines, why, if
they bave been guilty of the atrocious orimej
stated they are not court-martialled, and pun
ched according to all the laws of war, and not
la th unprecedented fashion of addressing the
ajmythroughtheSeoretaryof State and not
tie Secretary of War f Way did we net have
the substance of this bombastic proclamation
given in an order through the "War Depart
ment " aa the law and custom direct r We
cannot but think that Oeneral Grant, seeing
thj tU UiolT t auU lowing that
these against whom the attack was aimed
were only doing their duty, ha peremptorily
refused to issue aayauoh order, and that,
therefore, the State Department had to M
used. It is well, however, In thta o.nneotion,
for all officers of the United States to remember
that by a law of Congress it is made a misde
meanor, punishable with imprisonment for not
less than two or more than twenty years, for
any officer of the army to obey any order not
issued through the General of the armies.
We think this consideration will strongly
detract from the terrors of the proclamation.
When we remember that the laws positively
make the civil courts inferior to the military
in the Southern States, and do so in an un
mistakable manner, we can see the attitude
in whioh the President places himself when
he "enjoins upon the officers of the army and
navy to assist and sustain the courts and
other civil authorities of the United States in
a faithful administration of the laws thereof,
and in the judgments, decrees, mandates, and
processes of the courts of the United States."
The fox's skin has proved too short, and
to-day even the semi-apology of, a Stanbery
opinion is thrown away. But so far as the
actual effeot of the proclamation is concerned,
it falls under the head of what Ilichelieu well
classes as "parchment for battledores." The
animus, however, remains the same, and
shows that daily the President grows bolder
and more reckless of all semblauoe of recard
for laws.
Achievements of the fast (ieueration.
Wb reprinted yesterday from one of our ex
changes an interesting summary of the events
of the second generation of the nineteenth cen
tury. The retrospeot certainly disoloses a
remarkable degree of progress in almost every
branch of human endeavor and achievement.
We can, perhaps, better realize this if we
imagine how the world's business would be
conducted were we suddenly to be deprived of
all that the generation just closed has given
us, and to be obliged to go back to the condi
tion of things as they were thirty years ago.
How would we get along without railroads,
steamships, telegraphs, sewing machines,
reapers and mowers, and the whole round of
appliances which science and invention have
either given us outright, or brought to perfec
tion, during the past third of a century f We
could not do it at all. Take, for instance, the
article of daily newspapers, and by no process
in vogue thirty years ago would it now be pos
sible for any daily journal, of large circula
tion, to print a sufficient number of copies to
supply its subscribers. The newspapers of
the present day are possible only because
invention has so wonderfully increased the
facilities for printing.
Take the means of transportation a they
existed thirty years ago, and the surplus pro
ducts of the great West could not possibly be
got to market. Railroads are the modern
builders of States.
People had clothes to wear before sewing
machines were invented; but if we were to go
back to hand-sewing now, we should finl it
hard work to get along. So, too, the farmer
managed somehow to raise and gather crops
before the present improved agricultural ma
chinery was invented; but he did not in those
days number his single field of wheat or
corn by the hundred acres.
The past thirty years has witnessed a vast
increase in the elements of production, in
the facilities of exchange and locomotion, and
in the transmission and dissemination of in
telligence. In some of these particulars we have pro
bably reached, or elosely approached, the
limit of possible human achievement. It is
diffioult to conoeive how the magnetic tele
graph can ever be excelled in the rapidity of
transmitting intelligence. The details of the
invention may be more fully perfected, but
the essential idea will never be improved on.
Future improvements in printing must be
sought rather in the matter of type-setting
than in that of the printing-press. It is pos
sible that some future invention may do away
with type-setting altogether.
We have reached the practicable limit of
speed in railroad travelling. So far as increased
rapidity of locomotion is concerned, we must
probably seek for that, if we ever get it, in
some form of aerial navigation. The problem
in that direction is not necessarily a hopeless
one, and some of the most brilliant achieve
ments of the future may be accomplished in
connection with it.
But while the practicable limit has been
reached in the rapidity of locomotion by means
of railroads, the cost of freight transportation
is still far beyond what it ought to be. It
would doubtless bo entirely within the limits
of possibility to construct and operate a purely
freight railroad, from the Mississippi river to
the Atlantio seaboard, which should carry
freight at from one-quarter to one-half of the
rates now charged. This will probably be
done during the next thirty years. The
necessities of the country demand it, and it is
entirely practicable.
We shall also witness, undoubtedly, a vast
extension and increase of the telegraph. It
will eventually be popularize! so as almost to
supersede the mails. That it has not already
done so is due to the short-sightedness and
want of comprehension on the part of those
who have hitherto managed it. Wiser and
greater men will by-and-by take hold of it,
and then people will wonder that it was so
long monopolized by the few. Every part of
the habitable globe will soon be reached by
the telegraph, so that the whole world, as far
as all important events are oonoerned, will
live, as it were, a simultaneous life.
It hardly seems probable that the next
third of a century will witness as great im
provements and as striking inventions as have
characterized that just past; but it is impos
sible to forecast the action of the human
mind, and nature may have bidden avray
in her recesses seorets as startling as
any that have yet been discovered. Oar
knowledge of the laws of the universe and of
the foroes of nature is as yet very limited.
We have picked up a little here and there,
bat there remains enough, doubtless, to tax
the powers of the human mind as long as time
shall endure.
The Know-Nothing Spirit.
We are sure that all sensible men must be
disgusted with the manner in which our
Democratic contemporary chooses to conduct
its canvass in favor of Judge Sharswood. His
opponent, Judge Williams, is uniformly spoken
of as the "nutmeg candidate," ad Judge Wil
liams "of Connecticut," etc. The people who
can be influenced by such appeals are already
in the ranks of the Democratic party. It has a
monopoly of them, and they will vote its ticket
without any urgiug.
The spirit of such appeals is that of the most
fanatical Know-Nothingism. It would exclude
from political rights and privileges not merely
foreigners, but natives of our own country if
they did not happen to have been born in
Pennsylvania. It is useless to argue against
auch appeals, for they are made not to reason
but to the lowest form of prejudice. Thou
sands and tens of thousands of as good oiti .ens
as Pennsylvania has are natives of other
State. They will notice this effort of the
Democratic leaders to ostracize them.
Sectionalism Itun Mod.
It used to be a standing charge of the Demo
cratic party against the Republicans that they
were a sectional party. The charge was not
true, in a broad sense, for the principles
of the Republican party were national. But
what do we see now in Pennsylvania f An
effort on the part of the Democratio party,
through its leaders, to ostracize all citizens not
born in this State ! Birth in Pennsylvania is
hereafter to be insisted upon as a qualification
for Democratic support. A man can't be a
good citizen, a capable legislator, or a pure
judge unless he was born in Pennsylvania t
What is this but sectionalism run mad f
Thb N. Y. Tribune to-day reads the President
a parable. It eajs: "Years ago, in Westches
ter county, there lived a noted bull. He was a
conservative animal. Be believed in the tradi
tions ot the fathers, and hal risen from an
humble station to be a Dull of strength and tem
per, fit for ihp proudest arena of Spain. His
lite was fixed. He detected radicalism. He
swung around bis circle from da? to day, like a
wise and resolute bull, calmly contemplating
the wtigon and the ox-cart, the lumbering 9taee
and the old family crriiire. Bj-and-by a rail
road was laid, and one tnornius a locomotive
rushed scrcecninc aloutr. The bull was alarmed.
lie nail never heard ot men a ttmipr. it was
unconstitutional. It was contrary to the teach
ings of the fathers. The ft'anuirm-roii of bulls
had never mentioned it, and the Jefferson of
bulls, he felt certain, would have condemned it
bad he lived. There never was a bull so asi
tated, o vexed, so maddened, so alarmed. He
did not care about bimsclt. He would williugly
pom himself out as a libation for the good of
his race, but this radical innovation he could
not endure. So be bellowed, and kicked, and
pranced, but all was as unavailing as so many
vetoes. One dny he escaped lrom his pen. He
heard the whistle. New wa? his opportunity.
Now wonld he pet his foot down, and stop the
calamity. The train came thunderins alons,
and placing himself in the middle of the track,
he rushed upon it .
We believe locomotives still run iu West
chester county."
