THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAFII PIIILADELPII1A, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 18G8. OBITUARY. lion. Abljah Mann. The trirgrftph announces the death of Abljah Mann, Jr., one of the most remarkable men ot hew York State, at the Be of 75 year. It U Impossible to contemplate hl decease without lively emotions. Tne time la brought to memory when hU Vulcanic, eloquence used to bo heard in the Legislature, Cousrress, or political conventions, always for the overthrow of what he regarded as some monstrous abuse, or scheme to detraud the public treasury. Wnen be was on the stage in active life the Demo cratic party was in Its glory j and such men aj Van Baren, Butler, Silas Wright, Marcy, Michael Hoflmm were his familiar associates and the directors ot its fortunes. He was oue of tne last to paBs from public view: nor did lie till bodily lnOrmlty compelled him to renounce active participation tn aflairs. He was born at Fairfield, In Herkimer conuty, N. Y ou the 24th day of Beptember, 1793, and was lavorod with an excellent mother, who bestowed great care upon his early training. He was a somewhat wayward youtb, bat he never omitted to pay her the tribute of veneration. In 1854, at the last Mew York Democratic Slate Convention which he ever attended, be meutioned her: 'I learned to hate slavery," cned the tottering, but Impetuous old mnn, "when I said my prayers at my mother's knees." He early became a politician, a Republican of the Tompkins school, and gloried in wearing the "buck tail." He soon became a man of mark; was elected justice of ttie pe-ice, appointed po-it-master, and finally became a memoer of Assem bly of his native State in 1828, He served three successive terms, obtaining a wide notoriety tor bis active hostility to the proposed Chenango canal. "It cannot be of lasting beneflt," he de clared in a speech; "a man can as easily lift himself over the fence by the slack of his pan taloons." Mr. Mann wai elected to Congress in 18J2, and re-elected in 1834. He became as remarkable at Wablngton as at Albany. On one occasion be was appointed a committee to Investigate the affairs of the United States Bank. He repaired to this city, but was refused access to the books of the institution. He Immediately procured laborers and set them to excavate their way under the buildiDg. This proceeding iniuced the officers to let Mr. Mann have his way; and he made a thorough Investigation. Mr. Mann used to relate the tttory with great zest: "I had been desired by General Jackson," sail he, "to come immediately to the President's bouse at any hour on my return to Wasulnaton. I arrived late in the night, and was refused ad mittance. 'My name is Mann,' said I, 'and the President wants to see me.' I was admitted. General Jackson had just risen from the bed, and walked up and down the room in an old woollen night-gown, whicn made him bd pear like a ghost. 'Tell me,' he demanded, 'how stands the case?' I told him the names of members of both Houses of Congress who had received money from the bank, and he made comments as I told. Naming one most distinguished Senator, I added, $70,000.' That money Is well spent' cried General Jackson; 'he is an able man.' I named a Southern Senator, still living, adding '$6000.' 'Too much, loo much,' cried the old man; 'he is only a country village lawyer.'. 8o I went through the whole catalogue, detailing oue of the most extraordinary Ciscs of official corrup tion then on record." The sequel of this inves tigation, the removal of the deposits, etc., are part of the history of the times and require no recapitulation. Mr. Mann left Congreaiat the expiration of General Jackson's term, and was elected again that same autumn to the New York Assembly. He took a llvel v interest in political matters, generally acting with the Republicans, but retaining bis early aUachment for the dis tinctive financial views ot the Barnburners. He was greatly dissatisfied with the slackness of Mr. Lincoln's administration in dealing with the Bebels; and was more than suspected of having voted for Mr. Seymour tn 1862. But the ensuing winter disabused him thoroughly. Meeting the Governor in the Comptroller's office, he fixed his eye on blra with the peculiar glance, and said: "Governor Seymour, 1 hear that you have sinned away your day of grace; aud I believe it. You bad the brightest of opportunities, but you have thrown them away, 1 believe, forever. You might have been Prettdent; but you never will be." Mr. Mann wus occasionally to be seen in the streets, moving along with blurred eyesight, and almost incapable of recognizing his friends; but his ' natural force" was abated. He always expressed his opinions boldly. He criticized freely the acts of Mr. Seward and others, aad did not quite oveicome the animosities of his early stirring political encounters. "American Conflict." Mr. Greeley tells the New lork Ledger how he came to write his "American Conflict." We make the following extract from his account, from which it will be s&eu that the book must be vety unreliable as a work of history. He many cases I found officers reported killed In battles whom I afterward found fighting in subsequent battles; whence I conclude they had not been killed so dead as they might have been. Some of the errors into which I was thus led by my authorities were not corrected till after my work was printed; when the gen tlemen thus conclusively disposed of began to write me, insisting that, though desperately wounded at the battle in question, they had decided not to give np the ghost, and so still remained in the land of embodied rather than that of disembodied souls. Their testimony was so direct and pointed that I was constrained to believe It, and to correct page after pa-e accord ingly. I presume a few, eveu yet. remain con signed to the shades in my book, who neverthe less, to this day, consume rations of beef and pork with most unsptritual regularity and self satisfaction. There doubtless remain some other errors, though 1 have corrected many: and, as I have stated mauy more particular than my rivals in the same held have usually done, it is probable that my vork originally embodied more erroro of fact or Incident than almost any other. In another part of this statement Mr. Greeley says: The sale of my history was very large and steady down to the date of the clamor raised touchipg the bailing ol Jefferson Davis, when it almost ceased for a season; thousands who had subscribed lor It refusing to take their copies, to the sore disappointment and loss of the agents who had supplied themselves with fifty to one hundred copies each, In accordance with their orders; and who thus found themselves suddenly, through no fault of theirs, Involved lu serious embarrassments. 1 grieved that they were thus afflicted for what, at the worst, was no fault of their; while tbelr loss by every copy thus refused was twenty times my own. . Politic In Ciuiitlcn. To the Fdllors of the Evening Te'egraph:! seek no controversy. It is no time lor the friends of freedom to have divisions in their ranks. There will be no such thing among the Republicans of New Jersey. The contest is too seTlous, and the stake too great for which De mocracy contends in this last battle, in which human liberty will triumph and intolerance and Injustice will go to the wall. Your other correspondent had the last word two months ago, and now, by permission of Mr. Scovet, and to do justice to a brave and courageous man, I send you a copy ot a letter to him from Tbad deus Stevens, dated April 15, 1868. It is as fol lows: "House of BeprRontatlvea, Washington, D. C Drar Hoove : AlabauiA I not ret admitted. Wears Dot out of the woods. This body lack courage.

It is observed la California that the Chlnete make great use of the telegraph, though It there trarsmlts messages in En gllsh alone To-day, great number, of fleet stsamers are owned by Chinese merchants, and used by them exclusively for tbe transmission of early Intelligence, If the telegraph we propose, connecting all their great seaports, weie now In existence, it is believed that Its business would pay Its cost within tbe first two years of Its successful operation, and would steadily Increase thereafter.
