FRIDAY. FEBRUARY 26, 1869. "Hire TIIoraf Tool Street." It is recorded that the English sovereign onos reoelved a petition oommenoing with the mo mentous words, 'We, the people of Great Britain," and bearing at the end the signatures Of "three tailors of Tooley street." The thing was BO sublimely Impudent that It has made it Way Into hlstorj. But It has been reserved for Colonel Alexander K. MoClure, figuring as the mouthpiece of Andrew O. Curtln, John W. Geary and Henry W. Williams, to eclipse the "three tailors of Tooley street" by an exhibition of downright im pudence hitherto without a parallel. Despatches from Washington inform us of the details of an interview between the President-elect and Colonel MoClure which, ooourred yesterday at the headquarters of the amy In Washington. The whole story rsadj like an Invention of the newspaper corres pondents, and we are almost inolined to doubt its truth from beginning to end. But If it be worthy of credit, it Justifies the country in the belief that ex-Governor Curtin is not to be a member of General Grant's Cabinet, aud that, in all probability, George H. Stuart, Esq., of this city, is to be the representative of Pennsylvania in that body. This much Colonel MoClure ascertained, and, although it did not appear to be entirely in aooordance with his views, the country will rest satisfied. Colonel MoClure appeared before General Grant as the representative of Messrs. Curtin, Geary, and Williams, who have kindly vol unteered not only to manage the Republican party of this State, but also to fix up the Cabinet for the PreBident-eleot. A letter from Judge Williams was presented by the momth pieoe of the three Republican Dictators of Pennsylvania, urging upon General Grant the paramount necessity of giving ex-Governor Curtin a seat in the Cabinet, if the Republi can party la to be saved from defeat in this State at the October election. In presenting this epistle, Colonel MoClure assured General Grant that Judge Williams is to be the Re publican candidate for the vacancy upon the bench of the Supreme Court, which will ooour at the close of the present year. It was also stated, for the information of the President eleot, that Governor Geary had written a let ter of similar import, and that he was to be the Republican candidate for Governor at the approaching election. Still another epistle was reposing in Colonel MoClure's letter-bag, Bigned by Judge Agnew, and insisting that by the selection of ex-Governor Curtin alone could General Grant command for his admin istration the confidence and support of the Republican party of Pennsylvania, and at the same time seoure to the candidates of that party that is to say, Governor Geary and Judge Williams success at the polls in October. Now, as a careful chronicler of the events of the day, we have not yet been able to ascer tain the time and place at which Governor Geary and Judge Willivms have been renomi nated by the Republican party of this State for the positions which they at present oooupy. Afl far as we can ascertain, they are self-nominated candidates only, having thus far received the endorsement of a few looal conventions and of certain political cliques of whioh Colonel Alexander K. MoCiura may be taken as a fair and average sample, aa a leader. And, speaking for a very large element in the Republican party of the State, We have to say that, if the Republican party is absolutely dependent for success upon the influence of the gentlemen trading in politics onder the name and style of Curtin, MoClure & Co., the sooner it is defeated the better, and the sooner it is undermined by the withdrawal of the influence of Curtin, MoClure & Co., the sooner can it be reorganized for victory on a more substantial basis. If Colonel MoClure we are not advised where he pioked up the "Colonel" had been content with urging the claims of Ex-Governor Curtin. and announcing the renomlnation of Governor Geary and Jjadge Williams, the "three tailors of Tooley street" might still have worn their laurels as the most impudent of beggars for favor at the hands of power, Bat Colonel MoClure saw fit, as tbe mouth' Dlaoe of Messrs. Curtin, Williams and Geary, to protest against the soleotlon by General Grant of any such person as ueorge u. otuart, Adoiph Borie, Mr. Welsh, or Aubrey II Smith to represent the great State of Pennsyl vanla in the Cabinet. These men, and all men of their class, according to the BuUime MoClure, have no sympa thy with the active Republicans of the State, have no knowledge of the people) and would so dispense the patronage at their disposal as to cause the utter ruin of the party in the oomtng oanvasB. General Grant appreciated this astonishing effrontery at its true value, and expressed his surprise that any loyal man should object to the appointment of a man with suoh a recora as naa oeen made by George H. E ttart. Thereupon the Colonel aanoonoed the fact that he had been "a good mu. ruin In active politics" precioely how .n. i. AiA not declare during all of which ha had not enjoyed the felicity of en countering Mr. Stuart. No one will presume to deny this assertion, for Colonel MoClure . belongs to the olasa who are known aa J?ro- wmI foUUgianj, tfc WH vrh'i t? J THg DAILY SVfiyiNGjTELEGRArn-riIILADELPmA, FRIDAY, FEDRITAIIY 26, 1869. plainly, do the dirty work of the business, and who do the dtrty ' work alone. The hands of George H. Smart, on the oontrary, have not been soiled by this or any other sort of dirty work, because all his Instlnots and habits are as far above It as the heavens are above the earth. But when Colonel MoClure proceeded to deolare that not five thousand out of the sixty thousand Repubiloan voters of Philadelphia knew George II. Stuart, he lapsed for a moment Into the rdle of a lawyer who is upholding a desperate case, and re sorted to a oontortion of the truth whioh might have been excusable In the Quarter Sessions, but whioh was anything but ex cusable or creditable to him under the cir cumstances. It is barely possible that there are five thousand Repubiloan voters in Phila delphia who do not know Mr. Stuart; but It is quite certain that throughout the State and oountry he U known as a man of strict integrity, of the most devoted pa triotism, of the most rational Repub lican views. The assurance by Colonel McClure that the seleotion of suoh a man for a Cabinet position would alienate from General Grant the Republican party of Pennsylvania, and overwhelm it with defeat at the polls, faiily entitles that "active politician" to the palm of impudence and shall we say veracity ? Taken altogether, General Grant met the effrontery of Colonel MoClure in a spirit whioh will commend him more than ever to the con fidence and esteem of the Republicaa party of Pennylsvania, and of the people of the whole country. The Repubiloan party of Pennsyl vania has not the right, and Curtin, MoClure & Co., to the oontrary, notwithstanding does not assume the right, to seleot the Cabinet of General Grant. Of this fact the President eleot is quite as well aware as anybody else, and for this reason he saw fit to deny the petition of the "three tailors of Tooley street." Tbe ttlse la Nng-ar. These is a great deal of curiosity experienced among the people on a very homely but cer tainly a very Interesting subjeot the rise of sugar. We are told, aud on good authority, that within the past week that article of domestic necessity has advanoei seven cents per ponnd, and this, too, with a rapidity whioh is decidedly alarming as an indication of its future movements. The universal question raised is, "What is the cause of this fluctuation f " The equilibrium of supply and demand, and all the other niceties by whioh moral philosophy seeks to solve such ques tions, are neither luold or satisfactory answers. The cause of the present rise is ostensibly the Cuban insurrection, and the consequent injury done to the sugar crops; but the real reason will doubtless be found in a combina tion among the dealers, whioh has effected the increase under the guise of the troubles in the island. The rumors whioh come to us all indioate that, whether the rebellion continues unsubdued or unsuccessful, a very serious detriment will result to all cultivation; but as the sugar whioh has gone up was pur chased probably months tinoe, and as the next crop, that ripens in the fall, is the first to be affected by the difficulties, it takes a decided stretch of reasoning to see the oause in it for the rise in sugar seven cents in five days. It ia well, however, to state, for the information of housekeepers, that the in capacity of Duloe and the courage of our fellow-townsmen, the Cavadas, are to blame so say the grocers for the present increase; and as their shoulders are broad, it is pro bable that they will have to bear the respon sibility for a yet higher rate of tariff for the article in question. Small Change. Yestbhdat the House of Representatives passed the bill reported by Judge Kelley from the Committee on Coinage, Weights, and Measures, providing for the coinage of new, five, three, and one-eent pieoes, to be com posed of copper and nickel, In the proportion of not less than twenty-five per cent, nor more than thirty -three per cent, of nickel. The one-cent pieoes are to weigh one and a half grammes, the three-cent pieoes three grammes, and the five-cent pieces five grammes. It is directed that these pieces shall be coined at the Mint of the United States on and after the first day of June next, or sooner if possible, and that the Issue of treasury notes of ten cents shall thereafter cease. The Direc tor of the Mint, with the approval of the Secretary of the Treasury, is authorized to adopt a suitable device for the sew coinage, whioh devioe he is not to ohange thereafter. This coinage ia designed to pro vide a metal currency whioh will supersede the flimsy bits of paper whioh have been en dured as necessary evils incident to the war, but which have, nevertheless, been considered as unmitigated nuisances by all classes of society. The bill might, with advantage, have included a ten cent pieoe in its list of new coins, but it is something to have the dirty, flimsy rags which have represented our small change for the last six or seven years done away with. One good point in the bill is that which pro hlbits tbe changing of the devioe. Hitherto our coinage has been anything but oreditable to the oountry, and the artists of the Mint have apparently exercised their ingenuity to give ns as great a variety as possible without considering the appropriateness of their de signs. Tbe devices adopted .for the new coins are neat, artutio, uniform, and in exoeileut taste, and unless Borne very excellent reasons should be given to the oontrary, they should be adhered to in the future for all the coin age, whether of gold, silver, nickel or copper, issued from the Mint. AeoordSng to the bill passed yesterday by the House, the new coins are made legal tender to the amount of one dollar in any one payment, and no more. The old one, two, three, and five-cent pieoes will bs re- , & SWM'aot less tlua $59 b7 Treasurer and Assistant Treasurers of the United States. Judge Kelley has had this bill in charge, and he Is entitled to credit for getting it through the House. We hope that It will be acted upon by the Senate imme diately, so that we may be relieved as soon as possible from the "stamps" whioh have done good service, but which oertainiy have had tbelr day. Who U aore If. Stnarl T Colohbi. h i.rxanpbr K. MoClobb oomplains that he has been twenty years in politios aud that he Is unacquainted with George U. Stuart. Possibly not; for Mr. Stuart is not the man to thrust himself into the company of vhe political wire-pulling fraternity of whioh Colonel MoClure is such a distinguished orna ment. If Mr. Stuart had been in the same line of business feeding at the publio eribfor the last twenty years as Messrs. MoClure, Curtin & Co., there would be no want of knowledge about him or doubt as to his fitness for a Cabinet position. There are a good many Penney lvanians who know Mr. Stuartt and who think that his seleotion for a seat in the Cabinet will be a fresh proof of General Grant's wisdom. For the benefit of politicians of the MoClure school, we will state who George H. Stuart is. Mr. Stuart was born in Ireland, but for many years he haB resided in Philadelphia) where he is known as a merohant of unim peachable integrity, andapublio-spirited citi zen. He has never been a politioiau, whioh we doubt not is one of his chief reoommenda tioLS with General Grant. All his life long he has been an opponent of human slavery, and he has belonged to the Repubiloan party from its inception. During the war he gave his stead fast adherence to the Government, and as the President of the Christian Commission he ought to have oome under the notioe of Colo nel MoClare. Sinoe the war Mr. Stuart has never faltered in his attaohment to the principles whioh governed him during the Rebellion, and the disinterested ness of his patriotism at all times is proved by the fact that he has never sought or accepted office, or busied himself about political intrigues of any kind. Mr. Stuart is a member and ruling elder in the Reformed Presbyterian Churoh, and his time and means have been liberally bestowed in promoting the oause of Christianity. Mr. Stuart is a man that will give dignity aud influence to General Grant's Cabinet, and his appointment will be satisfactory not only to Pennsylva nia but the whole people of the United States, and only politioians who are itching to get their fingers near the publio money bags will have cause to feel disappointed. The Georgia Plantations. The Macon Telegraph of February 18 says: "Reports from the plantation all over Middle and (Southwest ern Ueorgla represent the moat extraordinary aoilvlty everywhere prevailing. Every hand they can obtain Is being employed and paid tbe most liberal wages. Every acre will be planted which can be properly tended. We think ten thousand more hands could now obtain em ployment in tbe black belt of Georgia, but tbey are nowhere to be found, and we must go forward with what we have. About as much cotton will be planted this aa last year, but four times the amount of grain will be used. Bo that if the season la favorable a mucn larger crop win do raieecu we are afraid the area sown In email grain will be lees. We are passing through a delightful spell of weather. Winter seems to have entrely left us, leaving the farmer free to ply all hla energy in preparing hla ground and pitching his crop. Another year of prosperity and high price for cotton will place Ueorgla high in tbe financial scale en the road to the position of not only the Empire State of the South, but of the Union. We have and will receive no less than t40.000.000 for our cotton orop of 1868, and at least (50,000,000 for that of 1869. This, added to at least one-third of those amounts for other products, gives us an bundanoe of money. Georgia and her people are no longer the poverty-stricken, army-ridden rebels they were a few years ago, but we are once more gaining wealth, luxury, and ease. Forward we go I Each year but marks a long stride In pros perity." Taxation in Gbbat Britain. Nearly the of the British, Kmnire from customs la derived from seven articles, and nlnety-alx and a hair per cent, or me revenue fiom excise eomea from spirits, malt, and licenses.

Yet the resources of the two countries aie not practically very different in amount. London Pauperism. From official reports recently published it appears that at the end of December last there were nearly 4000 persons lees on the London poor relief lists than In De cember, 1867. In the third week of the present month the full pauper score was 149,885, the corresponding total in 1868 being 169,881. The western district contributes little to the de crease smaller comparative numbers in St. George's, Hanover square, and St. Margaret and St. John, Westminster, are nearly balanced by larger ones In Kensington. Fulham, and Faddlnglon. Ib tbe north, St. I'ancras, Isling ton, and Hackney show marked reductions in tbelr present Hats. Tbe central unions in the aggregate have declined nearly 6000. Here the diminution appears to be general throughout the district. Where pauperism was at its worst, in tbe East of London, the better state of things is represented by larger figures, the total de crease being rather over 10,000. Bethnal Green and Whlteohapei have lessened their pauper registers by 1500 each, Stepney by 2500, and Pop lar by 8200 or ao.no w 7330 against 10,556 in IStii- In the southern district the general decline is 8000; and thla ia the more noteworthy because in the unions of Greenwich.
