PENNSYLVANIA'S FIRST-GLASS FO REIGN MISSION. It 18 announced, on apparently good authority, that ex-Governor Curtiu will ho appointed Minis ter to Russia. Tills bopuih to he the favorite place-of hanlMhtneut for prominent Pennsylvania politicians serving to the favored classes of thin , SUte, In a modified and comparatively ajfreoable form, the purpose which Siberia serves to Russia. Soon after General Jackson'i first election, James Buchanan, who was thon the, rising man of this Cunmonwealth, became- the American Ambassa dor at St. Petersburg. Subsequently the panic . honor was conferred by Van Buren upon Bucha nan's rival, George M. Dallas. This example of the Democracy hiw been Imitated by their Re publican successors, for Simon Carm-ron's ftp- ' poinlincnt n Minister to Russia by Lincoln lin- j mediately followed Lis surrender of the War j Department, and now It U alleged that Curtiu's , failure to win Vice-Presidential or Cabinet honors is to be supplemented by the. transfer of ula graceful form from the quiet i shade of Centre county to the Court j of the Czars. Instead of bothering himself with the griefs of his disappointed followers, ho is to have glorious opportunities for hobnobbing with - diplomats and bejewelled Counts, and for bask ing ia the sunshine of the presence of the sue ceors of 4the doughty Peter the Great and the 'dazzling ' Catherine. With this arrangement Curtln fcas better reason to be satisfied thaa the politicians who cherished the fond hope, pre vious to Grant's inauguration, that he would be enabled to dole out a bountiful supply of the spoils of office to his faithful friends; and they will scarcely be content with the fate that honors the leader, and leaves his attendant army of office-hunters destitute of rations. It Is currently rumored that among', the other Pennsylvania names pressed upon the President - for first-class missions were Louis W. Hall, who was backed by Governor Geary, aud George H. Boker, of this city, who was earnestly recom mended as a worthy suuccsHor of John P. Hale, at Madrid, by a committee of the leading meni- bers of the Union League, but that General ' Grant has decided that the State can receive but one firttt-class mission, and tbM Curtin's claims . override those of his competitors. So far as Mr. ' Hall is concerned, it is extremely difficult to see what possible pretension he can have to exalted ' honors. He has no national reputation what- ever, and no especial claims that we are aware of to the admiration or gratitude of his fel low-citizens within the confiues of the State. The appointment of George H. i Boker, however, to a prominent mis sion would be highly creditable. He has not only gained honorable distinction by his literary abilities, but has rendered continuous and useful service to the Republican party as Secretary of the Union League. Ho possesses in a large ' degree the qualification essential to a successful diplomatic career, In which mnny mere politi- clans are wofully deficient. While the couutry has often been disgraced abroad, and rarely re- presented with efficiency by the heads of brawl ing factions, the mini. Uirs whoso intellectual capacity had been demonstrated by literary suc- r cesses, have usually reflected credit upon them selves and the nation. The mental and social ' culture which la so readily dispensed with by those whose sole aim is success in the tempo tuous struggles of home politics provo useful as well as ornamental in the polished circles of European capitals. Whate ver we may think sf the political principles of Buchanan and Dallas, their varied intellectual acquirements were undoubted, and the country can regard wtth more just pride the record of such raou as Franklin, Jefferson, the Adamses, Irving, B:iu- crofj, Everett, and Motley, than the diplomatic career of a host of foreign ministers who were distinguished chiefly for their skill in partisan warfare, aud who rendered little real service either at home or abroad. In the Blue Book at the commencement of the present year, Pennsylvania was charged with the following diplomatic appointments: Henry M. Watts, Minister to Austria; James E. Harvey, Min ister to Portugal; and Edward Joy Morris, Minister to Constantinople. It will not be at all surprising If General Grant concludes to dispense with the services of some of these gentlemen, aud in that event new fields will probably be opened for the diplomatic talent of this State. THE CUBAN QUESTION. Tna Spanish authorities perpotruted another brutal outrage at Havana last Friday. It was bad enough to execute two patriots, whose only crjme was 'devotion to their country, and it was lufamous, when their unhappy fate excited the commiseration of the spectators, to permit the sanguinary volunteers to sbike their vengeance in the blood of a promiscuous crowd. The cable telegram reports that six men were killod and many wouuded by the shots Dred by the guard who surrounded the scaffold. Any attempt to Justify these Infamous murders must necessarily be based on an acknowledgment that in Havana, the very centre aud stronghold of Spanish influences, public sentiment is scarcely less favorable to the patriotic cause than In the I Interior districts where Cespcdes rules with un t disputed sway. The earnest sympathy of the United States is Justly due to a people who are not only subjected to an obnoxious despotic rule, but whose heroic efforts to gain the boon of free 'h in are confronted by the most atrocious mas sacres. The statement telegraphed from Madrid that the Spanish authorities are about to send naval commission to New York to purchase monitors for Cuba will arouse, under existing circumstances, deep Indignation. It indicates that If the Cubans are not speedily recognized as belliirerenU. the energies of this country will be freely used to assist the tyrants in riveting their chains, while no helping hand can be extended to men who are imitating the noble example of Our Revolutionary ancestors. As the House of Representatives, by the reso lution passed on Saturday, has given forcible expression to the national sentiment, we presume that the administration will act promptly on the first authentic Information that justifies a formal recognition of the rising power, and that the readt new of Spain to recognize the Confederacy will la ivi Ly s. r.obud fur her Oliver. MOSES r0ST MORTEM. It Is with a feollug of the most llvolv Intercut that we watch the post-mortem career Ol I Atidrew Johnson, whose dlsouilKdled politic spirit Is now perambulating Teuiiessce, repoati it to the miserable inhabitants of that region t words addressed by the Friend of Huinanit t(' the Needy Kulfe-Qrlnder: "Base, Inglorious slacs, whom no sense of wrong can stir to vc.i geanoe; degenerate outcasts," etc. The peoplo of Tennessee or at least a portion of them appear. Indeed, to have sunk so low that thjv rut her like this sort of thing, especially when it conies from a man who for nearly four years en dured the most galling servitude recorded in his toiy, and then, by some mysterious dbiponsatlo.i of Providence, contrived to effect his escapo. On Halurday, the emancipated Andrew cuter tained as many as three thousand Tennoiseoans by a harangue after thin fashion, or, as tho ldjer this morning quaintly puts it, "in his usual f-tyle." The upshot of the speech was to the effect that there l. a round hundred thousand of degraded Teniiesseeans, every one of whom, by one of the most singular coincidence on record, rejoice in a white cuticle. The caiiso of all this distressing state of affairs appcar.4 to lip i:i the fact, us uiuinmicttd by the great Post Mortem, that the present government of Tennessee Is anti-republican- but not necessarily Democratic in form, und based on ideas "in tiolatiou of the Constitution and tho fundamental principles of a free American republic." But, while Andrew does not seem disposed to assist his degraded white brethren In their effort at emancipation, he has a kind word for the citizens of African descent. It appears that, during his own period of scrvltudo at Washing ton, certain cvil-disposod persons, kuown as members of the Loyal League, have succeeded In restoring to shivery all the negroes whom An drew emancipated whilo acting as Military Gov ernor. We are rejoiced to lenrn, however, that Andrew has determined to again appear in tho role of "Moses" for a limited number of nights, but Dot so limited that he will not have sufficient timo to again crush out negro slavery from the soil of Tennessee. When that herculean task is accomplished, it la barely possible that he may turn his attention to the liberation of the hun dred thousand degraded whites. Tho Constitu tion, the flag, the thirty-seven stars, and various other neglected Blatters will probably next en gage his attention, and after that we may be ou the look-out for the deluge. TIIE ACCURSED THIRST FOR GOLD." Tub ixxra fames auri, or "sacred thirst for gold," to which the great Latin poet alluded two thousund years ago, seems to be as nfo at pre sent us when he Urst denounced it in the forum. It exists amongst a wider class of men, Indeed; for in modern days it has extended far beyond the ranks of the clergy, to whom he was theu supposed to have alluded; for their successors in the early days of our 'Church were' so sensitive that they eoncelved it necessary to escapo the, imputation by giving an entirely new translation of the word sacra, und alleging that it meant "cursed" as well as holy. They might have dis pensed with this, for how dextrous soever some of the fathers of the Church may have been in the performance of certain polemical juggles, they could by no means be compared, and really were far inferior as artkts, to their predecessors, the priests and augurs and soothsayers of ancient Rome, who foretold future events from the flight of a pigeon, inculcated morality from the entrails of a rooster, and recommended policy from tho cackling of a goose. All of our clergy can meet each other in the'streets with serenity, if not' with solemnity, and few of them would perhaps even raise a passing smile from a passer-by if they shook hands when they met; whereas Horace declares that when two of his contem poraneous clerical worthies met each other in public, not only he, but the whole community, was astonished that they could do so without bursting out with laughter in each others' faces, when meditating on, or recalling to mind the gross deceptions they perpetrated for the acquisition, as he hluted, of gold. But the desire for the precious metal has now extended to a wider circle than the clergy. We do not meau to hint that it exists at all in the breasts of any of our pastors, but it assuredly has deeply Influ enced those of a very considerable number of their flocks, and It is for tho benefit of these mainly that we make our present remarks. We do not affect to indulge in the usual cant about despising riches. Wealth, It cau neither be concealed nor denied, is the prime mover of modern society. It is the source of most of our joys, aud it alleviates many of our sorrows. The outcries about the evil of money are generally misplaced, and often whoLy hypocritical. With out money, nothing in the present day is to be done. It is the source of all power in every profession or vocation to which man can devote himself. The possession of it facilitates or gives rise to the grandest enterprises; and the want of even the smallest snare oi u nus ouen migntua the fairest prospects or the best of fortunes. In the profession of literature, it is equally fabie und Insulting to declare that the greatest works have been produced without money, or that the best poetry had its birth in a garret. Lamartine and u great English poet lately alike proclaimed this to be a heartless lie, aud asserted that uiuny a great composition, both in prose and verse, was prevented from ever seeiug the light iu consequence of the poverty of the mau who otherwise would have botn conceived and produced them. I he Almighty always rangeH himself on the side of strong battalions," said Naroleon the First, with something of pro faulty, but assuredly, ulfo, with no small share of truth; and these are to bo equipped and sup ported by money alone. It was this which gave strength to the ancient phalanxes of Greece and the resistless legions of Rome. It was this which enabled Venice to acquire aud maintain its vast power during the middle ages; and most morti fying and embittering thought of ull for him who uttered it amid the agonies of St. Helena It was weulth, and wealth alone, which enabled Britain to organise that vast European confederacy which ultimately subdued and destroyed him. But in the present day we tliiuk that the desire of money is inordinate, that in Europe It ha produced many evils, and thut lu this country it threatens to given rise to still greater. Oh both sides of the Atlantic .dike, tho outcry is hoard that the rich are every day becoming richer aud me poor iimiug into snu deeper poverty. In tuo urn worm we snail probably mriilu M.n hear the exclamation, first upraised In the great French Revolution of 1789, that "the poor will eat the rich when they have nothlug else to cat;" and In this couutry It has already engen dered a uiirsi ior luxury wiucn, u unchecked. may endanger uie existence oi our Republic Dickens as a Diplomat Mo one ran say that Anthony Trollope Is inclined to belittle tho profession of a novelist.

We are willing to concedo this, and are likewise disposed to insist that the appolntmsnt ofSylvanus Cobb, Jr., as tho successor of Reverdy, tho great Diner-out, might be beneficial to both countries, but at the same time we can not smother a doubt of the policy of both sug gestions. Tim population of New York city is com puted by tho IhraUl, an enterprising and thoroughly reliable newspaper published in that city, at 1,118,707 souls. Wo are glad to learn that New York is such a wholo-souled place, but we arc still more rejoiced to say that Philadel phia Is still ahead of It. The roughest sort of a gtioss wo can make gives us at least 25,000,000. Every man, woman, and child in tho city pos secscs at least one soul, and we could give the names of some of our citizens who count their souls by the score. SPEOIAL.

Catarrh Is a da. mmyu disease; yet it can be cured by the use of Da, WOLCOTT'M ANKIHILATOR, a different Remedy, and unlike Pain Pacnt. Thousands suffer without knowing the nature of this universal oom plaint. It ia an ulcration of the head. Its indications are Hawking, Spitting, wrak or inAameii F.yes, eortnrm of tho Throat, dryness and heat in the nose, matter running from the head down the Throat, ringing or deafness in the Kant, loss of Smell, Memory impaired, dullnct and dVsa. mm of tho Head, pains in tho left 'host or aide and under the Shoulder Blade. Indi gestion invariably attend Catarrh ; a backing cough and oolite are very common. Home have ail these symptoms, others only few. Very little pain attends Catarrh until the uver ana Liiuigs are attaoked in oouaeituence of the stream of pollution running from the head into the stomach. It ends in Consumption. Bmnrhitis is the legitimate child of Catarrh. Trot-boa and ail palliatives cannot in aay case reach the fountain in the heud( where the polluted, festering, corrosive matter issues. Snntf or dust of any Liud aytravutte, aud never cures the disease. A snoeae ia nature' erophatlo warning, and is produced In consequence of an irritation of the head. Nature speaks out and Rays , at every sneexe. She open the water ducts, and iloods the nostrils with water to drive out the intruder, just as the ducts of the eye are opened wheu dust affect tliat organ. Taking snuff will prodiiooCatiirrh. The patient feels dull, heavy, stupid, and aloepy ; his fear are not amtuied until perhaps too lute. He ratchea cold constantly in the head, sometimes run ning at the nostrils; the breath sometime reveal to hi neiKilor the corruption within; while the patient ha often lost the sense ot smell. The disease advances cau tiously, until pain in the chest, lungs, or bowels startles him; he back and coughs; hits dyspepsia, baa liver ooiu plaint, want to Lake a blood puruier, or cod liver oil. Bosh! Mie foul ul.'er in the head cannot be reached by auch nostrums. He become nervous, his voice is hnrrffi and unnatural, feels disheartened, memory lose her power, judgment her soat, gloomy foreboding bang over bead ; hundreds, yea, thouttunds, seek a rope, a river, a re volver, or a razor, and out the miserable thread of life. The world looks on and wondera that a man surrounded by all the charms and opulence that uukl cau give, should de liberately ubooae a quiet grave ; oilier drag on a weary life and sink under luug compktinUi by inches. Many hire some miserable scamp or some big sounding charlatan, having such a string of promotion from F.urope that they actually bev ilder and liable their victim, who at once comes down with the duut, pay 5 for a useless examina tion, tuU more as part payment for job cure. Of course the dupe is not silly enough to pay tho balanoo, but thanks Uodhewsa not killed outright by the outrageous treat ment. The villains coolly write a fUming certiucate, and attach thereto the victim's name. Thousand are restored to health whom doctor call hope less victims of Consumption. Prrynioiniu think the lungs affected when the liver ia the only cause of pain in the ma jority oi cases, ana tne patient ia perfectly curable. No lung complaints can enst unless caused by Catarrh. Hut the liver w always brrt attacked. Medicine taken in the stomach are worse than uselww. I'liysioiaiu know nothing comparatively, of the srmptoma of this diseaseit cause or cure ana lew are ooia enough, to deny turn assertion. Many physicians have catarrh themselTea and do not kuow it ; those of the highest standing buy "Aunihilator" to oure "For all afflicted with this iliMfiutthq complaint, Dr. Wot, covr'8 Ahnihilatoh afford a safe, sure, and wv cur, when no bant have come from the head.
