Th arrival of Mr.' Dickens u pnn the steamer Cuba is announced Arrangmnt8 for hU ''readings" hare already been completed In all of our principal citipn, and thfjr will donbtleM form a distinguishing feature in the Intellectual recreations of the winter. Thou sands among the multitudes whom Charles DUkens has charmed by the marvellous power Of his works, will feel it to be a memorable era In their Uvea when first they nee and hear the great magiolan whose wondrous ppell called into being Captain Cuttle and Little Nell, Paul Dombey and Mr. Pickwick, and whose geoias lias wrought scenes of enchantment in colors that will live and glow while books are read or human heaits can sorrow or rejoloe I All rho have read his inimitable works will want to seo him, to know what manner of man this is who for bo many years has held the hearts Of young and old at his command. Mr. Dickens was born at Portsmouth, Eng land, In 1812, and was educated, by his father's yish, for the life of an attorney a fact which trill explain his familiarity with the forms and technicalities of the law, a familiarity which lie has tamed to such good account in some of iis works as to secure the extensive modifica tion of many of the most serious legal abuses In England. But the profession did not suit Diokens, whose mind, already forecasting its destiny, was turned towards literature; and lie became first a newspaper critic and re porter, and afterwards a writer of sketches and tales, in which his peculiar powers of Jnind soon began to reveal theuiBelves. In 183G these "Sketches of London Life" were collected and published. The 'Tick wick Tapers" followed in 1837; and the thirty years that have since elapsed have bean years of liard labor, of keen and careful observation, and of almost unexampled success. In 1842 Mr. Dickens made a visit of about Elx months to this country, publishing on his Xetarn his "American Notes" a work which 1 riftllaA flnnrn wrn 1f.v. 1. ,1. H i!... . uvrfu Uou Xlliu LIl'J luaiBUIOtlUUS Ol many of our critics, and which even yet causes a foolish prejudice against its author in the minds of thousands who have never real the book. It seems scarcely necessary to oall atten. tion to the distinctive characteristics of Mr. Dickens' writings. No books are more wi lely known; none have gained a firmer place iu the i&ffeotions of the masses. Inimitable in humor and pathos, they have stirred to laughter and to tears many who are not easily moved ly fiotitious scenes, and have prepared the (hearts of some for a readier evmrnthv with their neighbors' woes. 1 Their power is tstriotlv origi nal. The style is unique, that of no other author being traceable in them iu any degree; fand it has been noticed that they are almost : i - r . . . i n . i . jr iuiwj nee iruiu quotations me luougui and the graphic form ia which it is pre sented are alike the fruit of the aathor's 'geuitu. Of this peculiar character are his 'Pictures of Italy." We were aooustomed o the artist's sketches of Italy, to the histo- an's comments, to the poet's verses; but -Diokens alone visited that land of romance pimply as a humorist; and as a result, he has given us a view of every scene, however solemn :or sentimental, illumined by flashes of his wn peculiar and irresistible humor. In every department Dickens seems at tome. Thackeray portrayed with astonish ing power the follies of fashionable life, but Diokens has found in the tavern and in tho prison cell, as well as in the drawing-room and the office of trust, materials for his facile pen. Hawthorne - painted the quiet soenea of our own domestio life as a background on vrhioh to trace some one startling figure Veird, beautiful, unlike any other; but among the bosta of DickenB' characters, who can Say which are the unimportant ones ? And sud denly turning aside from his wonted themes, be has given us, in "The Tale of Two Cities," Buoh scenes from the gloomy terrors of the French Revolution as would lead us to say that historio painting was his furte, did we not remember the myriad other forms in Which his power is displayed. Some persons have objected to the works of tfr. Diokens that they portray too fully the vices of society, especially of the lower classes; tXat too many of his characters are such as we would shun in real life such as we ought Boaroely to mention to "ears polite." But there ia a virtuous silence in regard to acknow ledged evils which o(Un amounts almost to a toleration of vioe. If in Mr. Dickens' heroes or heroines vice was dressed in attractive color and rewarded with final success, a very jierlona oharge might, indeed, be brought ftgainat him; but in the very reverse of this he lias one of his prominent characteristics and an enviable distinction among the writers of fiotlon. "We must all admire him," as the Lord Chief Justice well remarked at the late Diokens dinner in London; "for the unvarying Loneatr of purpose which has never induced liim to pander to vicious tastes, which has made him teach us unconsciously, perhaps to admire only that which is beautiful and true, and helped u to hold up to execration and scorn all that is lof.tbso.ue, vile, and base. In these works he has known how to invest With interest, and has ever promoted, those feelings which bind man to man, and tend to (develop that catholic, large, and generous THE PAHA EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, WEDNESDAY. humanity which is the noblest attribute ol human kind." Mr. Dickens has been a true reformer. Alike on abuses in the Government, in the courts, in social life, in K hools, and in benevolent institutions, have fallen his unsparing blows. Overseers and trustees, parish officers and pedagogues, prison-keepers and judges of courts, have had reason to quail before his pen; while many of the victims of their abuses have had equal reason to thank the thamplon whose soul hated oppression and whofe genius held it up to the execration of a wot Id. We never think, without a new thrill of amusement and satisfaction, of the story that, after the rublioation of " Nicholas Nickleby," a whole room-full of irate school masters from different parts of England waited npon Mr. Dickens, each in a frenzy of rage at the thought that hU portrait had been given to the public in the person of the celebrated Squeers, of Dotheboys Hall. Probably it was a leBS pleasing incident to the hundreds of boys throughout the kingdom who were suf feiing the privations and persecutions over whose story alone we have so often waxed indignant. Since Mr. Dickens visited us the first time "a vast and entirely new generation," to use his own words, "has arisen in the United States." During that period many of hla best works have been written, and millions of readers have made his acquaintance. With reference to his meeting these, Lord Lytton eloquently said, In his farewell speech to Dickens: I cannot but think that wherever oar Ame iH'tin kinsfolk welcome ttiat pro'-euoe or liann pell-b uud on thai voice, mey will irresistibly leei how much there U of fellowship and unlsou between the beam of America and KtiKiuud.

Mr. Dickens has not come among m un heralded. The creations of his own genius have prepared the way before him. For the sake of these of little Florence and Aunt Betsy Trotwood, of Oliver and Mrs. Perry bingle we will bid him welcome, hoping that with new eyes he may look upon our renewed country, bo lately baptized in blood, and con secrated forever, as we trust, to those great principles of civil and religious liberty which are the glory and hope of both England aud America. Which Will They Favor T At a meeting of all the property holders on Broad street, held last evening, it was unani mously resolved that they were" in favor of the widening of the pavements below Master street, and called npon Councils to reconsider their action, and give their permission to carry out the design. They asked why the Mayor should refuse the petitions of all those most interested? The reason is kuown only to his Honor, for it seems to those ignorant of any personal cause, inexplicable. All of the pro perty holders favor it; all the great body of the people favor it; the owners of carriages do not object, as they have abundance of room under the new arrangement. Who, then, are its opponents r The contractors for the Niool 8 on pavement and the Mayor of Philadelphia. Which party will give way f The people, who send their servants to Councils, demand that their will should be obeyed. Unless Councils act to-morrow as the voice of their constituents dtmands, it will be too late. Those who op pose a reconsideration place themselves, how ever Inadvertently, in the attitude of oppo nents of the masses, and in favor of the con tract and the few flashy drivers, who dasu along in double teams, regardless of anything but vulgar display. On whioh side will our representatives appear r Representative Jleform. Laet evening Hon. Charles R. Buckalew de livered in our city an address on "Representa tive Reform." We are glad to be able to do the Senator justice by Having that he most carefully avoided giving the least political complexion to his able and clear essay. lie discussed briefly the subject of "cumulative voting," and favored it most strongly. While that portion of his address which pointed out the evils of the present system was most con vincing, and will meet the heartiest approval of all thinking men, without any regard to party, yet the remedy has not yet been suffi ciently discussed for us to yield to it our hearty support. We hail with great satisfac tion this commencement of a free discussion of this great question. It is destined, in the course of a few years, to monopolize the atten tion of all our statesmen, and it is a pleasure to hear a United States Senator diaoussiug in a masterly manner a question of political ethic?, and not, as is too often the case, see them descend into the arena of party discus sion, and exhibit a violence unworthy of their high office. The address of Senator Buckalew is a credit to himself, and must do good. Mosfby. The guerilla Moseby was intro. dnced into the New York Gold Room, and according to some accounts well received, and to others was treated with marked condemna tion. It is certain, however, that a number of the Board weloomed him. It is surprising to us to see such au action. If a welcome should 1 extended to Lee, or any of the Rebel Gene rals, we would not be surprised, considering the complexion of New York; but Moseby was a guerilla, murderer, and thief. He followed no flag. IU fought as a freebooter, and, accord ing to all the Uws of civilized warfare, deserved the pallows from whichever party ho was oap tured by. let thW man fa welcomed in a Northern city I We nd make no further oounnent on the political party which would gra p the hand of such. Hon. Jnmee W. Wall on the Election of fllr Vnllandigham we Senator from Ohio. Wa have received a letter from the Hon. James W. Wall, of New Jersey, in reply to an edi torial which we published a few days since in Tim Kvknino TfeLEoRArn, whioh will be found on our eighth page. In , replying to the ex-United States Senator, we desire to avoid discussion as much as popsible, and will, therefore, grant that Mr. Vallaudigham is personally moral, that he has eloquence and education, and will take Mr. Wall's word for it that he is a "highly oturteoua gentleman," although we have never had the honor of Judging by expe rience. We will aho pass by without com ment the slur on the "inuuaoulate Lincoln," and come down to that portion of the latter which treats of the legal right of the Senate to reject an applicant for admission. We must, however, first take exceptiou to the statement that Mr. Vallandigbam is "the idol of a ma jority of the people of Ohio." It is so long ago since idols were worshipped that we do not exactly understand the form of devotion, but it strikes us that to muffle an idol up ia gRgs, to hide it, and keep its oracular voice from being heard, and to put it away ia an inner chamber, is hardly the approved method of worship. Yet Mr. Vallandigham, and oer tain olhir gentlemen in our own State, and on the other side of (he Delaware, wore treated iu this manner; and how much of the suooess of the Democracy is due to their being hidden from sight, the change of the vote from the time they were allowed to speak and when they were kept qniet will show. If our memory does not deceive us, when Mr. Vallan digbam stumped the State and ran for Gov ernor, he was beaten by somewhere in the neighborhood of 100,000 majority. It proves the ol 1 motto, that "speech may be silver, but silence is gold." The authority on the subject of the right of the United States Senate to judge of the "election returns and qualifit -ation of its mem berb" is found in the Constitution. No limit is assigned to the "qualifioatioiw" of which the Senate can judge; and as they are not defined, Mr. Wall tke3 occasion to say that they consist in an inquiry as to whether the applicant is a resident of the State which elected him, is over thirty years of age, and has resided in that State nine years. Thie, according to Mr. Wall, is all that the highest body of the United States can do. It is not a power capa ble of excluding unworthy members; it is nothing more than a clerk to investigate family Bibles and tax receipts. Such an opinion places the d'guity of the Senate, its purity, and its rcapictaliility entirely at the mercy of a majority of a State Legislature. Such a doctrine is preposterous. But after having laid it down, Mr. Wall proceeds to contradiot himself. Ho extends the limits of the inquiry, lie goes 0 far as to acknowledge that in case of crime the Senate can reject au applicant. Having once broken down the barriers, and acknowledged that other questions than age, residence, and citizenship can be inquied into, by what right does Mr. Wall limit the examination to crimes of which the applicant has been convicted ? The very language he quotes from Chancellor Saudford does not require legal conviction as a ground for exclusion. "There may be an exclusion as punishment for crime," and not that some petty State Court must have convicted the applicant. The Senate itself is the judge as to whether its members have been guilty of a crime. Each Senator not only is authorized to act as his conscience and his oath dictate, without regard to legal technicalities, but it is his duty so to act; and to admit any one whom he believes to be a eiiminal, even if no legal conviction has taken place, is to be false to his high office. Not only has the Senate, without regard to parti, maintained this view, but it has fre quently acted on it. Ia the case of Jesse D. Bright, who was guilty of writing a letter to Jefferson Davis, introducing a man who had a patented firearm, even those who opposed his expulsion based their opposition not on the right of the Senate to expel for crime be fore a legal conviction, but because they did not deem such a letter a crime. They never denied that the Senate was the judge of whether or not Blight was entitled to mem bership. The reverse of such a position would place the Senate in a subordinate attitude to a State Court. That lofty body would have to post pone all action on the expnldion of an unwor thy member until his case was settled in some County Court of Oyer and Terminer a position of affairs utterly opposed to the spirit of the Constitution and subversive of the dignity of the Senate. According to Mr. Wall, the Senate had no right to expel Davis, Toombs, and the ten Rebel Senators, after th.y were in arms, until the courts had convicted them of treason; and these men might have left the Rebel army and entered the Senate as members, without that body having power to redeem its character or protect itself. And as none of these men have been convicted, they might demand ad mission to-morrow Jefferson Davis, aud the whole of them if elected, and the Senate would have no power to deny them seats. The absurdity of such a doctrine is self-evi dent. We therefore come down to this: Mr. Wall grants that if a man be guilty of a crime, he may be excluded; he also grants that treason is a crime. The only question on which we differ is as to who, is to be the judge of whether a Senator is guilty. We think such power is lodgud in the Senate itself, and that any other doctrine would bo utterly subversive of all freedom aud diBhity in that body. Mr. Wall pretends to ltelibve that, however notorious a criminal ii, the Senate cannot refuso Lita admission uulesa'Le has beoa convicted la a orimiuai court, provided he is thirty years old and has the qualifications of oltlzenship and residence. This is where we differ; and we leave it to precedent, the Constitution, and common sense whioh has reason and law on his side. Here we might pause; but we will add one word in regard to Mr. Vallandigham's attitude and our own views. We did not write the paragraph favoring his exclusion from the Senate, if elected, . in any passion or without forethought. We expressed our deliberate conviction that Mr. Vallandigham was a traitor, and in that conviction we think a large proportion of our readers will coincide. We say so frankly, and would say so even if his "calm, honest eyes were looking into ours." Having spoken deliberately, we iiave only to reiterate our earneat hope that the Senate will exclude him from its membership should the State of Ohio disgr are itself by eleoting him. And despite the assertion of Mr. Wall, we stand steadfast to our belief that Mr. Vallan digham will never be a Seiiatur of the Uni ed Stutit. SPECIAL NOTICES.
