He yet lack something; befitting hU treat offlcc. Most of all, ho has not that fctcrn integrity which should bo as much a part of his office as his oath, as hi subserviency to Iho "Kini?" has amply proved. He wants alto-m-tlier not onlv statesmanship, but even that lesser quality of intelligence which lie his should bring to tne u'""'. .......miniMe. trusts. His self-esteem is his talents tawury the ;,M of the stace. His assumptions of capacity render him ridiculous, and what ho thinks are proof of his wisdom, only confirm us in his ig norance. HU dignity Is as sham as that of the false duke in the Uoimpnoon. His associates, while they should be of such a character as to hedge him about with reject, arc of such origin os to lead the world to think them his Jackals, Rni no more. Hlfl office, in which only thc crave affairs of state should be considered, has fceen desecrated to the vilest purpows of broker age and salo, and then, when ho should atone CO to discharge his solemn, duties, he retires only to prey upon the "Ring" and the seekers after his clcmcncr. With a profundity of Ignorance which nothing but bis personal vanity equals, he makes speeches, which, even after his clerk has corrected their grammar, are miracle., of bosh mid nothingness. Without possessing ft single qualification lor the office, without having the respect of any sig nificant portion of the- people of the Common wealth, and really lacking every quality which should recommend him for such a high position, the sublimity of his impudence and his grasping need alono induce him to thrust himself forward a a candidate for Governor. The slave of the 'King," and their willing coadjutor, he is for them"' the most fitting instrument, and he will, it is feared, receive their nomination. But' they and he must clearly understand that he' is not, cannot be, thc choice of thc groat republican party, whom for one term he has already shamefully misrepresented. The small ward politicians may possibly foist him upon us, but just as certainly as they do, Just so certainly will our party organization see in the nomination of John Y. Geary the defeat of its principles, and the State will, for one guberna torial term at least, lose the benefits of Repub lican influonce. Thc Republican party is a great and powerful organization, and it may not be lightly broken down; bat while it was suffici ently strong to send to the field scores upon scores of regiments, to spend scores of mil lions of dollars in perpetuating the Union, yet it is not strong enough to stand another term of the misrule of the present Governor. Once and for all, we disclaim any personal feeling in this matter, and wo not only express no preference for any other candidate, but, fur ther, we have no individual choice for Governor. What we do demand, though, is that one shall be chosen for that position who shall in some mea sure be qualified to discharge its important duties one who shall bring to the office un flinching integrity, a reputation for truth and honor indisputable one who shall be firm, honest, fearless, who shall be set "all apart" from the corrupting associations of the "Ring;" who shall Lave mind enough to deliver himself intelligently upon the affairs of state; who shall administer the government wisely and with economy; who shall possess such streneth and worth of character as to lend honor to his office and not borrow all he has from it, and who shall not have in his ante-room a catspaw to gather in. the greenbacks from the lobby aud the pardon brokers. There are such men yet living in the Commonwealth, but the once time-honored office of Governor has baen so degraded by the vile pratlces of some of Its Incumbents, and is in such need of purifying, .that the office must seek the man and not the man the ofllce. Only such a man can at this 1 nurture save our party from complete rout in the comingfjampalgn. The opposition sec our weakness In John W. Geary, and are already taking advantage of it. They will put forward in tho contest no more party hack no creature of their "Ring." They recognize the fact that the ripioolc arc tired of Imbecility aud want of character in their Chief Magistrate, and they mean to nominate a man of character and capa city. With such a candidate arrayed against John W. Geary, their task will he an easy one, They will have the triumph, aud we tho defeat There is yet time to do what la right and to save the party from disgrace. The man worthy of the nomination can be found, aud on such a one the people and press will be united, and that will bo equivalent to success. But upon Geary the press cannot be brought to unite already thc most influential journals throughout the State are opposing ulin, ana U siiouiu be re inembered that they are the very echo aud ex preasion of popular leeiing. it is simply a ques tion whether our party leaders are going to give us defeat or victory, whether the Republican organization is to triumph by the selection of a wise and good man, or to fall by nominating a ,.,.u- mid bad one. The time to auswer it is short, and the necessity for a reply imperative. TUE FRENCU ELECTIONS. A f! a HiiB tklegkam announces that great ex citement prevails in Paris and in other portions of France in reference to mo approacmug elec tion for members of tho new Corps I.egislatif, which takes place on tho 2M inst., next Sunday, In France a rule prevails similar to that exist lug In a few of the New England States, that u candidate shall be duly eiectcu wuo uum uui n eelve a clear majority of till the votes cant, urn: to provide for contingencies of this Kind a second election is to be held on Sunday, May !!(, in all districts In which no choice is effected ut the first trial. . Heretofore Napoleon has been, practically, an absolute ruler. The upper brauch of the French legislative body consists of members selected as cvufUvnf ri ifieatU" py'h7m&I7 wwuVw he bus no serious opposition. Tho voice of the people is oxprowed In the election of members of tho Corps LegWntif, but by adroit manage ment and an unscrupulous uo of Government patronngo and intimidation, the F.mporor has always socured in that body a largo majority of sorvilo supporters. In spite of all his precau tions, however, some "bold and independent spirits have been returned, and his policy liai been subjected to a merciless criticism. In the natural order of things thc decline of ills popu larity should be attended with a corresponding increase of Opposition members, and this result s anticipated, but It is supposed that the K.mpn ror will still bo able to secure a largo majority in the new Corps, mainly on account of the rivalries aud antagonisms of his enemies France contains three tolerably powerful par tiesthe Legitimists, Orleanists and Republi cans who arc equally hostile to Napoleon, but who at the same time have such intense hatred and distrust of each other Unit it is almost im possible to combino their forces in one effect! vo conglomerate organization. An earnest effort is being made to cement these jarring elements into a constitutional opposition which, without reference to past divisions or old creeds, will act harmoniously ou living issues; but although this is doubtless a wise policy, it has been attended with but a moderate degree of success, and it is next to impossible for the ndvocatc of the Republic to cordially join hands with the champion of the Bourbon, or for thc irleanist to fraternize sincerely with the Legitimist. From present indications, in nearly nil the contested districts there will be a sort of a scrub race, in which a largo number of candidates will figure who have no earthly hope of success. This system is In some respects disadvantageous to the Government at the first election, inasmuch us it allows every voter who does not cordially approve the Napoleonic policy to find a representative for his peculiar views; snd thus to present a powerful illustra tion of thc prevailing difsatisfactlou; but at the second election It will be beneficial to the F.iu peror, as many Orleanists will vote for his friends In preference to a Republican, or Repub licans will vote for tho Empire rather than thc restoration of Bourbonism. The contest is further complicated by as mauy personal feelings and issues as exist in the United States when a new Congress is to be elected, previous to the actions of the conven tions which decide who shall or shall not be con sidered regularly nominated candidates. There are ulr,o accusations of corruption, aud a provin cial journal charges that several thousand voters have been bought up in one of tho departments at thc cheap, rate of twenty-five cents per head. The best guarantee of the return of some of the ablest members of the opposition arises from the fact that in France, as well as in England, they can make assurance doubly sure by running as candidates in two or more districts at the same time. Thus M. Thiers Is a candidate in one of the Parisian districts where he is antagonized by two opponents, and lie is also a candidate in a provincial district where his antagonist is M. de Lesseps, the projector of the Suez Canal. There is no doubt that France is growing restive under Napoleonic rule, and past experi ence has shown that at moments when the public mind was ripe for revolt it has not been diffi cult to depose mounrchs who appeared to be more firmly seated than thc present Emperor. Under the existing law, political demonstrations must be made at least live days before the elec tion, and to-day has been selected for u grand popular outburst iu Paris, which is, we suppose, tho French equivalent for a mighty mass meet ing. Napoleon will scarcely feel easy until the whole affair is over, and it would not be at all surprising if, at this moment, he was trembling, if not tottering, on his throne.. At the best he must look forward to increased legislative an tagonism to his measures, and to an increase of the discontent which sooner or later may add his dynasty to the list of thc broken and banished idols of France. The RkcoVbtkected "Whipi'Ing-post' at New Castle, Delaware, was consecrated on Satur day, with imposing ceremonies, which are fully detailed by our special correspondent. Now Castle, thc scene of this barbarous mockery of justice, is not more than thirty-five miles dis tant from Philadelphia, but the moral sentiment of the people of Delaware receives its inspira tion from the middle ages, ana notuiug better can be expected of them, wc fear, for years to come. riNANCU AND COXVXXVXEXICX3 Office or tub Kmmo Tkijcobaph,( Monday, MnjT 17, lt. j The official announcement from the Treasury De partment in reference to the establishment of a sink ing fund by means of regular weekly purchases of a million Honors 01 i nueu states Donus, is naving a very favorable effect in financial circles, the prices on faturoay reaching me nigncRingure yet auameu, with a prospect of a steady advance in the future. This movement will not fail to produce much good, especially in relieving the gold market of the constant drain upon its resources by reason of our excessive and constantly Increasing Import trade. This is really our great danger at the present time, and as cur people seem determined to persist In their habits of extravagance, forcing the country to live beyond its means, it is wen to nave tne rich na tions of Kurope in a mood to accept our bonds for colli in pavmeiit of the heavy balance.
