If the politicians of the North who look almost p.wsively on, and see the he'li-less people of the Soiuh preyed upon and doomed by tun voracious euoumireb and tools of Congress, were to l-e judged hy uuoli a law how many of them would eaoape hang in a f ' The law of Christ in this Bacon matter is about as eevere as that of old Egypt. It is undeniably based on the reason of things. The enlightened mind of man enforced it ur.0Ttii,n m ore IUM oniu raua vu""i and by him it was rvaili diviuitv. iinfil with all the sub- W'uat kind of CluU- t an, then, are these furious buli.es of the pulpit, who cry aloud for venpeau.a and tor fure upon a disarmed and BiHlermg psop le ? They are Buch Christians as the evil alone reioLs in. Such Christians as will crowd the LatUeuients of hell, just as Pfu political pulpits are dismantled of thoir Sata nic presence. The terrible Dauton once tluind.'red out iu the French Assembly : "Uoow 1 room there in hell for Maximiliau Kobespiurre !" S when one of these satauio preachers vacates his mortal battle-ground, li-nds may roar out: "Room 1 room here iu hell for a scalawag po litical preacher!" If hell does not rejoice at such an event, the earth ought to. While we yield to no oul' iu reverouoa for the preacher who breaks the bread of petce and- goodwill to mankind, we confess that we have no words to espress our detestatiou of the cantiDg scoundrels of t'ue Needier aud Hellows type, who desecrate the pulpit with harangues which are meant to stir up the pas sions ol hatred aud reveuge agaiust the whole people. The satauio prea 'hers have done aud still are doing more to present the restoration of that spirit of compromise and good feeling in which a political union alone is possible, than even such furious implacables as tijheuok, old Ben Wade, aud SSiuuu-r. Such reverend rascals canuotexactly be called "blinl guides," because they are leading our country to perdi tion with their eyes wide open. Their pernicious mininrat'ous are inspired not by a blind zer.l, but by an intensely wide-awake malice. When Beecher, some years ago, declared that "the best Uospel missionaries for Kausas were Sharp's lilies," he struck a key-note to the psalmody of our political orsatudo pulpits which has beea sung without intermission ever since. It has rolled on like an accursed anthem of the Devil, driving the spirit of devo tion and love out of the b.soms ot the p90ple, and fillirg them with a thirst for murder and revenge. We have ceased to hope for either repentance or reform in these sa'.anio pulpits. They will drive on their car of destruction and death until death hiuiselt shall mercifully re lieve the pulpits and the world of their pre sence. Then will be hrari, roariuz down the flaming avenues of prndi'dou, these awful words of Danton, ''Room ! room thre in hell for Beecher, and Chtever. and Tyjj :" Let the whole tarth respond "Amen !" Bond Robberies. Prom " Jiriek" PJtntro'j's xV. Y. Democrat. There are few vivid wickelneses that hive not tbe power of atUactiug t and aro md themselves a variety or other ests. It i3 with our Government b uds. As is the light of the candle to the pestiferous 11 y, so is the Government bond in the grasp of the avari cious bondholder to the ardent and daring burglar. A bond with a leaning towards twenty per cent., over all, to tha h A Icr, has a clear interest to robbers of all grades, beyond that which attaches to honest money honestly obtained, and the consequence is au increase in the incentive to a raid on that species of gold bearing value among all the robb"r3 of the lanl. Hardly a day passes on wbi'h there Is not a demonstration made upon the strong boxes of one or more of the over-fed wadilers in the country's misfortune, and generally with suc cess. This week there has beeu two effective movements on I'ine and Wall struts, with a realization of about $100,000. We had sup posed that the old rule of "honor among thieves" was still effective, but we have oeen out West, and therefore had not so well du nned as here the means of knowing. It does really seem that twenty per cent, is too strong for their friendship, and they now rob each other without compunction. Won't Borne pro minent Radical recommend paying both prin cipal and interest iu greenbacks f It might render holding bonds more safe. Butler has done so already; but then Butler has gouged b.la brethren too often before, aud they can't trust bim. Let some other almost equally true Radical, but not so well known to out Bide thieves, try it. The eflict might prove mollifying. Do try it, Bome ,f you. If you don't, they will soon be after you hides, bonds, and all. Revenue Killings of Rollins. From the N. Y. World. There is a story told in official circles a'. Washington to the eject that shortly after Mr. Hinckley entered npou his duties as Solic tor of Internal Revenue, he remarked that it was difficult for him to deteriuiue what was the real construction of the office upon thu Important points which had come before it up to that time. This may have surprised him, but it would fail to surpri.-e the hundreis of revenue officers throughout the country who Lave been hampered aud perplexed time aud again by the oonlliotiug deoiioiiH which have emanated from the revenue headijnarti rs, all of them bearing the offluial higuaiure of Mr. Rollins, or those baaiuet-s men and others whose interests have been injuriously alfcted by the Commissioner's sublime dicregard of uniformity and consistency iu his decisions. It is a common occurrence for two radically opposite rulings to be rendered on identically tha same question within one week. The reoorda of the office are full of cuch. rulings aud they are due to a lack of an eilioieut system whioh Is always wanting iu an incompetent administration. The trouble iu the Revenue ollioe is a want of ability at its common heal and at the head of the vtiiua departments into which it Is divided. Tu Commissioner Seems to be seized with the idea that he has the right to set Hp at will, aud kno,k down at pleasure, rulings goveruiu interests cover ing values of millions. l'o-'sibly he may regard it as' an accomplishment to be able to make two decisions on precisely the sinn point which ilatly-oontradiot each other; but pay" ho Jncurlos by his oaprt- S ; ;;4' ot so regard it. A formal . Sous u?iiatXamplB' tlluiltiu " wro- proper claims for nlgYn UPn i u ii i " '"e sums so erro- WUBly paid will be returns. Upon this parties interested forward their claims. THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, " FRIDAY, JANUARY 8, 18G9. Half of tbeFe claims will ba allowed audi paid, when suddenly a suspicion creeps I into the Commissioner's mind that the decision Is all wrong: it is summa i ily reversed, and the other half of the claimants are out eff from payment which, iu nine cases out of ten, is Justly dae. This is a fair illustration of the prinolple, or rather lack of principle, which controls this ( Dice. Those who have dealings with it can never feel certain that it will carry out en gagements even which It has voluntarily tittered into. Casting aside the legal merits of the case, Mr. Rollins does not seem to have y?t men to a perception of that discretionary policy whioh should govern him. Repeated retreat from rnllrga deliberately and formally rendered must iu the end destroy that publio con lldi nee in those who conduct the revenue which all tax-payers should feel, aud must tend to bring the office into disrepute. This fact should be appreciated by those concerned. A ruling should not be publicly rendered until the point involved has been thoroughly aud carefully considered, and a definite, tin al judgment formed upou it which is accepted by reason as sound. If any doubt exists as to its soundness, it should be reconsidered be fore promulgation, not after it. l'eftco Societies. from the N. Y. Tribune. The trouble with Peace Societies Las been that they are too good for this world. We cannot say that the memorial ou behalf of the Indians sent up to Congress by the Universal Peace Union shows it to be any exception to the rule. A very humaue and generous, but likewise a very uuworldly, spirit pervaies it. Nobody can read it without acknowledging the justice of its strictures upon our dealiuga With the Indians, or smiling at the innocence of its practical anggestious. " What diabolical inhumanity aud wanton iudiscretion," it ex claims, "destroying the winter supplies of the Apaches, at the very time wheu they are most netded I" "Instead of erecting fortifica tions in their very faces, we should relieve their pressing necessities, furnish them seels, agriotiltural implements, tools, aud teachers !" Could anything be sentimentally more hu roa'u.e and practically more foolish? Imagine a member of this most excellent and benevo lent Peace Union remonstrating with our ai my officers about the cruelty of destroying the supplies of the enemy I Conceive Sheri dan's tough riders stopped iu the midst of a charge on a party of painted Apiche or Kiowa braves, while some peaceful sergeant rides fortvaidto ask the savages if they wouldn't rather have some seeds, tools, and teachers instead of the impending carbine balls aud sabre cuts I The excellent members of tha Peace Union do not need to be assured of our entire sym pathy with their general views ou the Iudiau question, as well as wiih the humane purpose that prompts their present elfort. But we rnubt assure them that their error is the grave one of being right at the wrong time. We cannot stop in the midst of a fierce fight with savages to talk farming at them much as the subject of farming concerns them. We are into a war, aud must either tight our way through or submit to a humiliation in their eves which will render subsequent efforts to c-ODtrol them by peaceful meaus futile. Hav ing undertaken the taming of our horse Cruiser, we must lirst conquer him, or we will conquer us. junanesa is excellent, oui even iu the Rarey plan the object of the kindness must first be taught that it is bacKea by irre sistible power. Suffrage for the Iudiaua, rail road building, Constitution amending, may crme in time; the work now iu hand is to en force peace with a vigorously used army. Congress aud Ihc Aew Departure Under Unieral Umiii. Fi om the N. Y. Heraia. Will General Grant in the White House be a Second Andy Johnson 1 Have the Republicans caught a Tartar ? Some of the Democratic po liticians are setting their sails in this direo tion, while the radical leaders in Congress are evidently disinclined in advance of the Gene ral's inaugural to give him a loose rein, lie is still to them a mystery, lie gives no opin ions and answers no questions concerning his Cabinet or his policy. He avoids the White House; but he also avoids the Capitol. His reticence excites suspicion, and his political antecedents are conservative. His radical fi iends aie not sure whether he will prove a mau of wax or a man of iron ; a good worker iu tue traces, or as fractious as a mule ; an automaton like Buchanan, a marplot like Johnson, or a master like Old Hickory. So they are waiting to hear the voice of the oracle. The pievailiug opinion among the Republi cans, however, seems to be that General Grant will have no policy of his own, except upon retrenchment, and that, having no desire for asecOLd term, there is but little danger othis undertaking a repetition of Johnson's- profit less fiht with the two houses, or of Jackson's despotic discipline. Meantime, we think, enough is known of tL character of General Grant to justify the prediction that as President he will give us something better than the negative do-nothing policy et Buchanan, aud something more effi cient aud decisive thau Johnson's policy, with out the continuous fuss and flummery and incessant sqnabblings of Johnson. ' In the late Presidential canvass General Blair, who fought tLroofth the Vicksbnrg campaign with Grant, and through the campaign of Georgia and the Carolinas with Sherman, said of Grant that he was a soldier of great military capa city, a man of resolution, but withal a very ambitious man, and that if elected President he would hold ou to the office to the end of his lite, meaning thereby that in exchange for the confidence of the people he Would play thtm the role of Louis Napoleon. It must be remembered, however, that General Blair de livered this opinion ou the stump as the'Dem ocratio candidate for Vice-Presideut; that he was Laid pushed and had a desperate battle to fight agaiust heavy odds; and that accordingly he may be excused a little fancy sketching tor buncombe. But his testimony, nnder the clroumstanoeB. in behalf of General Grant as an able and meritorious soldier, aud as a mau of remark able decision of character, is good. We may tely upon it, coming from a political adver sary, and in the heat of a fiery canvass, aud from the close personal observations of a sol dier aud a lawyer withal of keen perceptions, touching the peculiar qualities of dill'areut men. We all know that one of the peculiar qualities of General Grant in the field, aud a most admirable one, too, was in his reports of battles, sieges, aud campaigns to give the highest praise to his subordinate officers and soldiers and to say nothing of himself, or as little as possible. He was not jealous of tbe liiiiiels of Sherman, Thomas, Sheridan, and other meritorious officers, but proud of them and proud to stand by them when under a cloud. Quietly permitting the inception of this and that campaign to be given to any other general, time has discov ered the truth that the campaigns of Vicka burg, Chattanooga, "the great march to tbe sea," and the crushing campaign from the Wilderness were the inceptions of General Graut. The honest and chivalrous Lincoln wrote to him after the capture of Vicksbnrg substantially, "When you disclosed to me your final plan I thought it a mistake. I nave now to eny that yon were right aud t was wrong." Hence the unquestioning ooull inuon of Lincoln In all the subsequent op-jra'iuus of Grant. Lincoln was a practical mau, and "demonstrate" with him was the grei'eu word iu tbe lungnape. Grant had demon strated Lis capacities, aud that was enough for Lincoln. Grant's decision of character, however, wu the escential eleuieiit or his victories. W 1111 V- A.. 1.. i . . in iiun miiA in uu, jit-tproin puy nsoivea upon.

Like Peiissier at Sdiastopol, if u coitld no, gtt in at the front door he would get in at th-i window, having rolvul to get in. lis know no such word as fail. IU bel i his councils of war, he heard the opinions of his geuerals, an i then quietly gave them their in'truutton. aud it was alweya bis plan ami alwavs fight. Hooker was flai,k-d Iu the Wilderness and backed out. Grant was fUuktj.l in ilia W 1 derness; but an two could play at that gam be Went on and fought it out ou that linn. It is impossible that such a man iu the Wuite House can be a blunderer like Johnson or a galvanized politician like Huchauau. Toe two houses of Congress will be more apt to find in General Grant the shrewdness of the amiable Lincoln and the resolution of Jack-ion, with something, too, of the simple aud economical republican notions of Jelfsrson, grappling at once with such atrocities as there whisky ring spoliations of a hundred millions a year, and these lobby railroad j ln, cover ing a margin of over a thousaud millions of money. Now, this Tenure of Oflne law and the various other laws tying up the Presidium's hands are but relics of the last four yeara' sqnabblings between Congress and Johuson. That fight is ended, and the party iu pover, having accepted aud elected Geuiral Graut npon his record as their man for Johnson's place, are in honor bound to relieve him of thtse unseemly cords and straps with which they have tied up Johnson. Or if the Presi dential office as it was uuder Lincoln is not to be restored, if Congress is henceforth to be also substantially the President, let it so be understood, aud without further beatiug about the bush and as a simple matter of plain deal ing with General Grant. Otherwise he will go into the Presidency like a mau blindfolded, and unable to distinguish the White House from the War Ollioe. Lastly, if the two houses desire a niisnnnerstaniiiug with the President elect from the beginning, 'hey have only to inaugurate htm uortei- t- eir tenure of oflice restrictions, which will bs equivalent to a vote ot a want or coniMence. It will, however.be a dangerous thing to play fast and loose or hide aud seek with a strai;;httortvard soldier of the will aud tenacity of put pose possessed by Gene ral Giant. Tlx- Diiileii Canal. From the N. Y. Times. The atteutiou of the world ha3 once more been diawn by Mr. Cushiug's mi-siou to that narrow neck of lard whicti joins North aud South Auieik'.a, aud which one never sees ou the map without feeling it is there to be cut through. To aid the guillotining of that tempting neck, in the int-i'csts of American commerce, la the object of Mr. Cushiug's journey. That the result of his negotiations with tho Government of N ;W Granada will be the coucestion to the Uni'ed States of a riy.ht ot way to nuiia an lninroo-'anio o.tnat cau be confidently anticipated. As to the rest, it may be laid down as a safe, proposition that, great as are the difficulties in constructing a canal across tho isthmus, there ara uouo to which the existing devices of modern engi neering are not luiiy aff quale. To this stupendous engineering feat, com pared with whioh even the Suez Canal dwin dles in magnitude, none of the petty Slates contiguous to the Isthmus ever dreamt, of course, of addressing themselves-. More tnan one commercial European power has, hor- evr, carefully watched aud wsighed it, Everybody will recall the uueasiness with which in our country the surveys aud experi ments of English engineers, many years ago were observed; and still fresher in memory is the outcry of indignation wherewith the French occupation ol Mexico wa3 instinctively conneo'ed by our people with this same grand problem. Often postponed now by more pressing schemes of internal policy, now by political difficulties, anon by the war, ami always by the prodigious character of the un dertaking, thin magnificent enterprise has yet never been lost sight of by Americans. What it means is no less than the grand highway of commerce between Asia and the rest of the world, and as such it was felt that it must be built by Amerioan capital, under American auspices, and established forever uuder Ame rican control. The proper time for the task has now apparently come, aud the pndden and vast increase of transpacific trade de mands that it be pushed forward without delay. A correspondnnt in yesterday's Times sets forth what has already been done and what remains to do to open this grand conduit ot commerce. He khows that the various aud shiiUng lines proposed in former years have now been reduced to two routes, either of which is, by the testimony of able engineers, perfectly feasible. One of these routes runs from the Gulf of Sau Miguel to Caledonia Bay, the other from the Bayauo river to the Gulf of San Bias. The latter, whose total leugth is thirty miles, embraces the audacious feature of a tunnel through the Cordilleras (to which that under Mont Cents is trivial) seven miles long, 100 feet wide, and 115 feet high, through whioh, of course, the largest man-of-war could be made to pass. A tidal lock aud an aque duct over the Mamoni river are also embraced in the plan. The rude estimate of the total cost of construction is $(J5,000,000. It is to secure the privilege of further sur veys and a final right of way that Mr. Cush ing is now despatched by the Department of State to New Granada. Should his mission be satisfactory, a strong company of New Yoik capitalists and engineers stands ready to begin the grand enterprise of an iater ooeanio ship oanal an enterprise whioh, if brought to a successful issue, will stand unmatched even in modem engineering science.
