Fit A UJ)fi IN REPUBLICAN CONVEX
T10N8. We recently published the letters nnd cortifi
catefl deponing tho ontrngeons fraud by which
Sninuol C. Perkins, Esq., a gontleman well
known nnd highly esteemed in the commu
nity, was deprived of his rights ns a delegate
in th convention which was assembled to
nominate a Republican candidate for tho
oflico of Recorder of Deeds. It will bo re
membered that the packed Committee on Cre
dentials, acting ignorantly and unjustly, if
not corruptly, reported that the scat in ques
tion rightfully belonged to one George W.
Bickley, and that the certificate under which
he claimed this position has since been proven
by the statement of the men whose names
were attached to it to be a downright forgery.
Determined to have all the facts involved
fully presented to the party and tho public,
Mr. Perkins made an effort to assert his rights
in the convention, and although ho prevented
the friends of Houseman from ejecting him,
they deprived him of the privilege of repre
senting his constituents, and in response to
his demand for justice threatened to throw
him out of the window if he did not submit
in silence to the infamous programme of
fraud which they had concocted. Deprived
of redress in the convention, he appealed to
the City Executive Committee, furnishing
them with a full statement of all tho facts,
fully attested. The result of their delibera
tions is announced in the following note:
"June 16, 18C9 Samuel C. Perkins, Esq Dear
Sir: At a meeting of the Republican Executive
I'oinmitteo, held yesterday, your protest against tlie
action of the convention to nomlnnto a Recorder of
Deeds was 'renpoctfully received and llled.' This
action was rendered necessary, as under the rules
tor the government of the Republican party (Rule ).
the convention, through lta committee on Contested
Seats, Is made the Judge of the right of a delegate to
a seat therein; therefore the committee (notwith
standing the fact that the coiwentwn acted in an out
rajeou wanner in this particular matter) could not
see that they could give any redress, other than
deprecate the action of the convention, and hope
that in the future there may be uo cause of com
plaint. Very respectfully, yours,
"Joni L. Hill,
"President Republican City Kx. Com."
The case of Mr. Perkins was by no means
an isolated one. There were about twenty
contested seats referred to the Committee on
Credentials, and without regard to the merits
of the respective contestants, that body de
cided in favor of the claimants who were
favorable to Houseman, thus introducing into
the convention a sufficient number of men
who had no right to be there to control its
deliberations, and to ensure the result which
lias given such widespread and deep-seated
dissatisfaction to honest and patriotic mem
bers of the Republican party.
Aside from these frauds, it is alleged that
many of the delegates present were paid to
cast their votes for Houseman, and that they
were therefore guided in their deliberations
not by regard for the welfare of Republican
ism, not by a desire to select a nominee who
would strengthen the ticket, not by a wish to
bestow a lucrative office upon a candidate
whose personal character, services, or sacri
fices had given him legitimate claims upon
public gratitude, but sololy by a sordid desire
to earn money by a base betrayal of the real
interests of the organization they should have
endeavored to serve.
Additional strength is given to this accusa
tion by the character of the proceedings of
the convention, the fraudulent voting in favor
of Houseman, and especially by the unjust
report of the Committee on Credentials or
contested seats.
It was bad enough that a powerful ring
combined to force one of its favorites upon
the ticket, but even this combination might
have been forgiven if bribery and fraud had
not been resorted to to insure the success of
its machinations.
It is a principle in law that fraud vitiates
all contracts, and we see no good reason why
this principle should not be applied to par
tisan nominations.
If any great political measure was at stake,
and Houseman was a candidate for some
great representative office whore his vote was
essential to advance the cause of freedom and
justice, there would be a fair reason for sup
porting him. But the office is purely one of
profit. The public will be equally well served
by an incumbent of either party, and the par
tisan interest most deeply involved in this
contest w that connected with the purification
of the machinery of the Republican organiza
tion. When conventions are converted into a
mere cloak for fraud, and when they are used
by cunning and unscrupulous managers to
elevate into high and lucrative positions men
who are obnoxious to the community, iu defi
ance of the wishes of the party they pretend
to represent, they forfeit their claims to re
spect Their proper mission is to ascertain and
give binding force to the enlightened judg
ment of a party organization; but this cannot
be done by delegates who are influenced by
bribes, or by a body which excludes the true
representatives of the voters and substitutes
for them men who are base enough to claim
Boats on forged certificates.
The City Executive Committee announces,
in reply to the protest of Mr. Perkins, that
they can recommend no remedy beyond the
hope that similar frauds will not again be
perpetrated. If, however, Mr. Houseman is
cordially supported and elected, despite the
manner in which he obtained a quasi-nomina-tion,
the unprincipled intriguers in the party
will be encouraged to resort to similar prao
1 ices in future. They will feel that all ras
calities can be covered up and ratified by a
rnnjority vote in a coavrntioa, no initter h'rir (
P'Pj be secured, and that tens w tfwusaa&i
THE DAILY EVENING TELEUKAPH I'ttlLADEIjPIIf.V, TlIUKSPAr,
of Republicans in Philadelphia ca i be flrm'y
held as the bound thralls of the most desper.ite
and dishonest schemers.
If delegate elections were, like general elec
tions, under the supervision of law, the nomi
nation of Houseman could bo proved to be
illegal. But there is no established court of
redress, and the City Executive Committee
declare that they have no authority to act
upon cases of fraud, no matter how fligrant
they may bo. The only resource left is to
oppose Houseman at the polls, and to touch
all who are inclined to acquire nominations
by bribery and injustice, that such nomina
tions are utterly worthless.
MARSHAL SERRANO.
Tnn reorganization of the Spanish Govern
ment may now be considered as comp'oto. A
constitution liberal and, nil things considered,
wise in its provisions, low been adopted; and
yesterday the Cortes completed the work
over which they have boon delaying so long,
and gave the Government a visible and re
sponsible head by electing Marshal Serrano
regent. Under theHO circumstances, the
selection of a monarch to fill the vacant
throne will not be a matter of such imme
diate importance, and for those of republican
ideas the selection will have its advantages,
as it will show how far nnd how well the
country can manage to get along without the
assistance of a gildod figure head, who wou'd
expect to receive the reverence and allogiance
of the people because of the royal blood in
his veius, whether he had any brains ia lii-
hend or not.
It is impossible to tell what the future will
bring forth, but hitherto Marshal Serrano has
said and done nothing that would entitle us
to doubt his patriotism, or to suppose that he
will endeavor to make use of his power for
the overthrow of the new-found liberties of
the people. There are rumors of intrigues,
plots, and counterplots at Madrid nnd Paris,
and tho experiences of history would lead us
to expect that a European revolution would
ultimately be consummated by the es
tablishment of a despotism. It has
nlrendy been seen, however, that it will not
do to judge Spain by Fiance. The expulsion
of Isabella II, nnd tho whole course of the
Spanish people nnd their leaders since that
time, have been so singular and so little like
what was to be expected that they cannot be
judged by ordinary historical precedents.
The Spanish revolution, like the Rebellion in
the United States, presented anomalous and
exceptional features, which overturned the
theories of diplomatists and set at naught the
calculations of those Mho studied history and
forgot to watch with careful eye the progress
of living events.
The greatest difficulties in the way of a
Spanish republic are the want of education
among the people, their ignorance of the
duties and responsibilities of free citizens,
and the thousand and one conservative ideas
that have grown iuto the national life during
centuries of despotism both spiritual and
temporal. These ideas caunot be eradicated
in a moment, nor can a nation be educated
in a moment to the point of understanding
what is the difference between license and
liberty.
The Spanish republics on this continent
have failed miserably, for the reasons indi
cated; and republican government in the
United States has been a success, because
from the first the importance of populur edu
cation was understood, and the people, when
called upon to take the power in their own
hands, knew what to do and how to do it.
If Marshal Serrano acts wisely in the posi
tion to which he has been elevated; if he calls
around him patriotic, honest, and energetic
men, and if he steadfastly refuses to admit of
any priestly interference with the functions of
the government, it may happen that presently
all necessity for choosing a royal successor to
the depraved Queen will disappear,, and Spain
will drift naturally and safely into a republi
can form of government. If this should be
the case, the influence of the Spanish revolu
tion on the future of Europe cannot be esti
mated. Men will ask themselves why, if the
most conservative country in Europe can take
such a stride forward, cannot the chains of
feudalism be loosened iu other quarters, and
the last relics of a mediaeval semi-civilization
be swept away? The Spaniards have the best
wishes of the friends of liberty everywhere iu
their present situation, and they have an op
portunity not often ottered to a nation to
prove that liberty is not merely a name, but a
living principle.
EDUCATION IN EXdLAXD.
The subject of a higher grade of popular
education is beginning to be agitated with
some energy in England. At present the
educational facilities afforded to the lower
classes are of the most primitive description,
consisting for the most part of very elemen
tary instruction in reading, writing, and little
or no arithmetic. The great educational in
stitutions are monopolized by ''gentlemen,"
and the gulf between Oxford, Cambridge,
Eton, and other colleges and schools and those
which are open to the laboring classes is as
wide as that which separates the noble from
the peasant.
Mr. Foster, the Vice-President of the Com
mittee of Privy Council on Education, in a
recent speech indicated that he is aware of tho
requirements of the times, nnd he conteuda 1
that it was unjust to "give the gentlemen of
England educational establishments to them
selves," and he desired to see bridges from
one class of schools to another, so that the
poor child should have the chance, if ho had
the faculty, of becoming a scholar forthe ben
efit of hiscountry." This is certainly the con e ;t
idea, and if Mr. Foster will take advantage of
his official position to enforce it upun tho
attention of the public, he will undoubtedly
be able to at least have the matter discussed
in a way that will ultimately produce impor
tant results. The probability is that the
popularization of the universities and higher
grades of schools will be resisted even more
fiercely by the "gentlemen" of England than
the disestablishment of the Irish Church, but
the justice of the measure will secure its
t.Jwi.'.Ln whea tho aa'.iou at hrg3 I. .jl.;

"LET VS HAVE PEACE!
Thb second day of the great outburst of har
mony has passed over Boston, and the city
still survives the shock. As far as we have
been able to learn, by telegraph and mail, no
deaths have as yet resulted, and nobody has
uaa ine wits ariven straight out of his head
by the monstrous din. This is doubtless in
consequence of tho full vory full reports of
the uproar which are echoed through the col
umns of the Boston newspapers. The Evening
Traveller on Tuesday devoted only twonty-
iour columns to its criticism, which would not
have filled more than five pages of this journal.
Of course no true Bost'onian would consent to
give up the ghost before he had perused the
twenty-four-colnmn critique while disposing of
his supper, and this perusal would serve to
strengthen him to the point of enduranoe for
the next day s uproar. " Then that tremondous
drum, which, as we are told, covers an area of
an aero and a quarter, and can be heard, on a
clamp clay, at a distance of two hundred miles!
The man that could wado through the Traveller
twenty-four-column crititism could assuredly
survive the noise evolved by pelting seventeen
thousand tightly-stretched sheepskins with the
mnsts of a first-class clipper ship.
V e have one suggestion to make to the
Chief Jubilator. Let him prepare to wind up
tho demonstration with nn outburst which
shall startle not only the inhabitants of this
mundane sphere, but the people who reside
in the moon as well. We believe the thing to
be entirely practicable. It was attempted
once, according to Rabelais, and failed, it is
true; but the managers went about it on that
occasion in a very bungling stylo. It was
arranged that every man, woman, aud child
in the world should, at a certain specifio l
time, give utterance to the ejaculatory " Oh
Such a concerted strain, it was believed,
would arouse the man in tho moon and all his
subjects. But when the time came, every
voice was hushod and every ear agog to catch
the noise and comprehend it in its full in
tensity every voice save that of alittlo dried
up specimen of humanity, who piped a shrill
note, for the simple reason that he was as deaf
ns a door-knob and could profit nothing by
remaining silent. If Gilmoro should conclude
to make the attempt, we think he could get
his chorus in better discipline and succeed
beyond even our expectations.
A Diplomatic Idea. During the entire
period of his residence as American Minister
iu England, we believe that Mr. Charles
Francis Adams made but one speech in public.
J. i J
and that was on an occasion when he was
afraid that his refusal to do so might lead to
inferences to which he would regret to give
even a negative countenance. In referring to
the matter subsequently, Mr. Adams advo
cated tho adoption of a regulation for the
diplomatic service which should prohibit
speaking in public, as writing for the news
papers is already prohibited. The idea is
essentially a good one, and if it had been in
force during the high days of tho garrulous
Reverdy, the country would have profited im
mensely by it. "Mr. Motley, however, does
not appear inclined to follow in the footsteps
of his predecessor, as he has studiously
avoided post-prandial exhibitions and has only
once on his arrival at Liverpool made a
speech which could possibly find its way into
the newspapers.
The Infallibility of Statistics. In the
recently published report of the British Registrar-General
is given a very remarkable
illustration of the apparent infallibility which
is attached to some statistical calculations.
The experience of many years has led to the
belief, by certain abstruse calculations, that
seventyfour persons should be killed by
horses during the first nineteen weeks of every
year, in London. This year, however, it was
feared by the statisticians that all their science
was at fault; for, when eighteen weeks had
elapsed, only sixty-six victims had been num
bered. But during the nineteenth week eight
more names nearly twice the usual propor
tion had been added to the list, and statis
tics enjoyed auothei" triumph. Such delicate
problematical calculations as these ore worthy
the study of the famous Arithmetic Man who
was employed to figure out the result of the
last Presidential election for the edification of
the readers of the New York World. If the
genius in question should confine his future
predictions to the number of unhappy mor
tals Mho will meet with a violent death in the
metropolis within any given time, his success
Mould doubtless be far more brilliant than it
