THE DEMO CRA C Y DISG US TED. lat, Democratic County Convention drove two more nails in the coffin of the party by its disorderly proceedings yesterday, and the despicable character of its nominations for Clerk of the Court of Quarter Sessions and Coroner. We sympathize with the Age. All its wise and good counsels have boon ignored. The worst rings and worst elements in the organization have exercised a potential influ ence, and the fruits of thoir labors are so dis graceful that it is ashamed to indorse them. Partisan conventions in Philadelphia seem to hare outlived their usefulness, and the custom of supporting "regular nominations" should be "more honored in the breach than in the observance." The Republicans have done badly in renominating six of the unpopular, odious, faithless, and worthless Representa tives by whom thoy were disgraced last ses sion, and by suffering the Gas Ring to win an unfair triumph in the nomination of Houseman for Recorder of Deeds. But the Democracy, in spite of the remonstrances of their organs, have done still worse in their conventions. The journals teem with protests from their own' dolegates and candidates against violence, mob rule, and fraud. Their proceedings are rodolent of the atmosphere of a prize-fight or a dog-pit, and have none of the characteristics of deliberative assemblies. Their faithless representatives have been re nominated, and their city ticket proves only that the men who compose it are the favorites of the roughs and rowdies of Philadelphia. Decent citizens may well shrink from the entertainment to which partisan managers would invite them; and if any combination of outrages can incite the great body of well meaning men who have at heart the publio welfare to rebuke the desperate and dis honest schemers who have usurped control of partisan machinery, there will be, this fall, either more "scratched" tickets than "full" ones voted, or, what is better still, anew re form', ticket; that honest men can conscien tiously Bustain, will be formed and supported by thousands of good citizens. Two things are needed a reduction or com mutation of the enormous fees of the Row offices, and such an uprising of the people as will emancipate them forever from the con trol of the existing race of ring-managers and wire-pullers. The highest ambition of these men is to plunder the community, and they are as unquestionably predatory foes of so ciety as pickpockets or burglars. The best thing the city can do in the present election is to thwart their machinations at the polls, and no mere party triumph can compensate tor the evil results of another submission to their dictation. The masses should sternly resolve that thoir rights, interests, and liberties shall no longer be gambled away by shameless in riguers, and that their votos shall not be regulated by the decisions of the blackguards of the city. . GETTYSBURG. Amoko the historio battle-fields of the world Gettysburg will always hold a front rank, and t is fitting that the mighty deeds of which it was the scene should be commemorated by statuary, painting, and imposing ceremonies. At Gettysburg, six years ago,, the power of the . Rebellion culminated. There, for the first, last, and only time, it appeared with imposing power and majestio front on the soil of the free States. Its previous victories over the Armjr of the Potomao had emboldened the Southern advocates of the policy of invasion, and its full strength was massed under its greatest general to strike a decisive aggres sive blow, and to dictate such terms of peace as would have insured the severation of the "tspublio, under the very shadows of Inde pendence Hall. If Lee's anticipations had been ' realized, the same spot which gave birth to the infant nation of 1776 might have witnessed the destruction of the giant of 18G3. For a time it seemed that his progress was irresistible. With the flower and the chivalry of secession under his banners, he crossed the Potomac, marched through Maryland, and spread over the rich counties of Southern Pennsylvania without encountering a single obstacle. There were thousands ready to flee before him, every highway was blocked up with fugitives or property sent forward to a place of safety, but not tt squad of soldiers dare dispute his march. A grand and glorious future seemed to loom up for the Confederacy, and its leaders might well fancy, for the moment, that all their brightest dreams were about to be realized that thoy were on the po,nt of not only gaining their coveted independence, imt also of humiliating the North forever. I?ul huo the destinies of tne whole nation d of mankind were .thus trembling the balance, the war-worn sol diers of the Union were hurrying to the scene of action. Though dispirited l,y previous defeats, and distracted by the dis sensions ol rival generals, mey iuuy coiupre- nded the perils of "the situation, and, A.lta a thousand cumeuities, tuey were i ready when the onset was made at Gettysburg 1 to present to Leo's legions a band of foeinon worthy of their steel, and to hurl them back, defeated and despairing, to their native South ern Boll, TLo desperate charges which Rebel soWers were induced to make against the Iiu they, supposed to bo defended by raw ia U. 4 were rcsintod by tLe. Ytuw undtj in Meade's command, as the rock-bound coast resist the angry waves; and when the fearful storm of battle had subsided, the sun of the Confederacy had set In gloom forever. Troops of nearly every Northern State shared in the glory of the victory, and troops of . every Southern State in the despondoncy of defeat. Though the war was protracted f orwoary months afterwards, Rebellion fought on in despera tion rather than in hope; and though the Union cause mot with temporary reverses, its final success was no longer doubtful. As the captijre of Burgoyne in the Revolutionary war secured the independence of the strug gling colonies, the victory at Gettysburg clearly foreshadowed the overthrow of seces sion, and the American people cannot too highly estimate the influence of such a pre monition upon their destiny. . THE IRISH CHURCH HILL. This Tory members of the House of Lords having arrived at the sapient conclusion that they could not, with safety to themselves, kill the Irish Church bill outright, are now en deavoring to smother it to death with amend ments. They desire to either throw the re sponsibility of a quarrel upon the House' of Commons, by making amendments that will not be agreed to by that body, or to so alter its essential features that it will be practically inoperative. . Yesterday, an amendment offered by Earl Caernarvon, to make 1&72 instead of 1871 the date of disestablishment, was agreed to by a vote of 130 to 74. The plea for this alteration was doubtless to give more time for the settlement of the affairs of the Churoh; but there is very little doubt that the real object was to gain more time, with a view, if possible, of creating a popular reaction ngninst the measure. Independently of any conservative princi ples, the Lords and Bishops see very plainly that this is the first step towards the disesta blishment of the English Church, and not improbably the abolishment of the hereditary privileges of the House of Lord; and having now got over their first flurry, they have gone to work in a systemic and practical manner t5 render the a nullity. It is certainly to be hoped tlt the Ministry will have enough firmnos and statesmanship to fight the thing out on the line that they have adopted, and refuse to yield an inch of ground. The Eng lish people are generally a good while making up their minds on a mea sure of reform, but when they have once decided in favor of a matter of this kind, there is not much likelihood that they will recede. The members of the House of Lords who expect a reaction will doubtless be grievously disappointed. The disestablish ment of the Irish. Church, independently of its intrinsic justice, is looked upon as a pro per and natural step towards the pacification of Ireland; and the English dissenters, who are a powerful and influential portion of the nation, see in it a prospect that the great Eng lish Church monopoly will be done away with, and all denominations be placed upon an equal footing. END OF THE PARAGUAYAN WAR. The war carried on against Paraguay by Brazil and other South American States is certainly one of the most curious struggles that has ever taken place. The cause espoused by the allies is that of liberty and enlightment; but the manner in which they have carried on the war does not entitle the in to any great degreo of credit, while, on the other hand, Lopez, one of the meanest of small despots, has defended his country, and has been supported by his people, with a skill and valor that are entitled to the warmest ad miration. As our information about the pro gress of the war has almost exclusively come from the allies, it has been impossible to tell exactly how matters stand between the contending parties. Over and over again have we been told that the Para guayans were annihilated; but Lopez has invariably turned up again, entrenched in a new stronghold, and apparently as little dis posed to surrender as ever. Taking all things into consideration, however, there is no doubt that the Paraguayans are in great straits, and, desperate as is their valor, it will be impossi ble for them to hold out much longer. In deed, Lopez practically admits this in a pro nunciamento recently issued, which there is every reason to believe to be authentic The latest intelligence from Rio Janeiro gives an official report that Lopez has offered, through Minister McMahon, to surrender on condition that he is granted his personal free dom and be permitted to leave the country without molestation. There is good reason to behove that this is true, for it must be practically impossible for him to prolong the contest, and the allies will probably be only too glad to let him go in peace, for the war has been ruinous to them, and they ought to be well satisfied with having accomplished their object. The defeat of Lopez will open one of the richest districts of South America to the commerce of the world, and the cause of civilization and progress will be promoted by the success of the allies. The French Cable. The cable despatches published this morning, and dated from Brest yesterday, inform us that up to Tuesday noon the Great Eastern had run nine hundred and twenty miles, and had paid out ten hundred and thirty knots of cable. Her signals con tinue perfect, and the great work is progress ing in the most satisfactory manner. It is gratifying to know that the new cable is being safoly laid in its ocean bed without accident or derangemejit, but it is certainly curious that the old cable is not more prompt in giving us information about the Great Eastern's movements. It certainly cannot take thirty-six hours to send a message from Brest to this side of the Atlantic. Although there is no excitement about the matter, there is much interest felt in the new cable; and the delay in sending news of interest which newspaper readers now endure is, indepen dently of anything else, an excellent reason for wishing a speedy and successful termina tion of the great eatoryiise now in progress. THE RELEASE OF KE1CUUM. Eftobts are now being made to prooure the release of Edward B. Ketahum, Jr., the New York forger, whose crime, conviction, and Bcntence, a year or tvro ago, produced con siderable exoiteraont. Ketchum was an influ ential scoundrel, with money, friends, and social position to back him, and it was a matter of some surprise that be did not es cape punishment altogether, and equally a surprise that he has not been released from the penitentiary bofore this. He was yester day brought into the New York Supreme Court on a writ of habeas corpus grantod by Judge Barnard, and the Commonwealth was required to show cause why he should not be released from prison. This certainly appears to be a high-handed measure on the part of the Judge, and the District Attorney very properly remarked that the Court had no right to interfere in the matter the sentence of the prisonor was tho final judgment of a competent tribunal. Judge Barnard gave as his reason for granting the writ, that he was convinced that the prisoner had been sentenced for an offense of which he had not been properly convicted. What the Governor of New York will have to say to this usurpation of his functions by Judge Barnard it is impossible to tell, for New York law and justice are apparently things regu lated by no precedents. The Judge stated that he would give his decision in a day or two, and from the tenor of his remarks yes terday there is apparently little doubt that he will order Ketchum's release. The New York judges are anomalies in American civilization: they appear to be invested with a power exceeding that of Oriental despots, and they bind and release at their own will and pleasure, without being amenable to any laws or responsible to anybody but' them selves. New York is certainly a little ahead of any other city in the country, at least so far as its judiciary is concerned. Enlightenment. The Salem witch perse cutions furnished Southern orators with a number of very forcible stock arguments against Northern free principles in the old slaveholding days. The Yankees of the pre sent generation were made responsible for the sins of their forefathers several centuries ago; and because the old Salem Puritans burned witches, it was considered a conclusive and logical reason why Southern gentlemen should hold negroes in bondage for all coining time. The New Englanders, however, have given over witch-burning for a good many years, but thoir reproach appears to have travelled to the south of Mason and Dixon's line, for we read that only a few days ago an old woman was presented as a witch by a grand jury in Owen county, Kentucky. The charge against her was that she cast an evil eye on the neigh bora' cattle, causing them to die by the score, and that she affected the waters of the wells, so that all who drank of them pined away amd died. It is certainly a little remarkable that a set of American jurors in the nineteenth century could be found to make such a pre sentment as this, and it would probably be impossible to collect twelve such fools to gether anywhere outside of the limits of the late Confederacy. Cotton Mather and his compeers will have to look out for their laurels. The Intehnal Revenue. Commissioner Delano makes a most satisfactory exhibit of the internal revenue receipts for the last fiscal year. This tax is the most onerous and the most difficult to collect, and while decent citi zens submit to it with a certain amount of complacency as an inevitable necessity, hoping that the day is not far distant when it will be done away with, if not altogether, yet in a great measure, it presents a grand field for the rogues who prey vipon the Govern ment, and an immense amount is every year diverted into private pockets. Commissioner Rollins estimated that the internal revenue receipts for this year would amount to $140,000,000. His expectations have been more than gratified, as the amount actually paid in is $l"8,2rt7,17u-01 for the fiscal year ending June 30, l&o"!). HrjMPTY DunrTv. What we have said about the pantomime now performing at the Arch Street Theatre would lead our readers to believe that it was an entirely Innocent and unobjectionable enter tainment. We regret that the management have seen fit to add since the first performance a piece of nastiness in the second act that cannot be condemned In too severe terms. There Is nothing In the piece itself or the manner in which it is represented that could give offense, but in "reconstructing" It a liberty has been taken tliat ought to drive every decent person from the theatre.. We do not wish to allude to the disgraceful exhibition in too particular terms, but we have said enough to warn the manage ment and the public. The Arch is not a theatre where such bold-faced blackguardism will be tole rated, and if the aflair we have referred to Is con tinued, it will .not only damage the success of the pantomime, but will materially injure the reputation of the house.
