WEDNESDAY, JULY 28, 1869. IS GENERAL GRANT A FAILURE? A good many people are exercisod over the momentous question whether General Grant, M a Tremdont, is a failure. The bulk of the professional politicians have little hesitation in flatly affirming that he has greatly disap pointed them. They charge upon him igno ranoo of civil affairs, accompanied by indif ference to the advice of the multitude of sage counsellors who would gladly direct his erring footsteps in the true path of Presidential Toatnoss. "If ho would only listen to that ,Teat htatosman, Snooks," Bays one, "he could ot redeem his administration;" or "if he ;ad followed the counsels of the illustrious Spriggins," says another, "he would have avoided all the mistakes that have diminished his popularity." The greatest trouble about : jcho speculations is that, as we have a thou h nd Knooksos and Sprigginses pulling in a 1 ousand different ways, and with a thousand if '.e aies to grind, the surrender of the nidnt to any particular adviser would iiimo tho ire of his nine hundred and ninoty ao rival would-be advisers; and it is barely i1. that, on this account, it is better ., Ulysses to plod on in his i a way, even if he does blunder . asionally. Grave errors in the matter of ; ointments are also alleged, and in some . H'H with a show of justice. It could scarce j . be expected that a soldier fresh from the tinp, where patriotism was measured by steady devotion to the national service or valorous deeds, would be able to pass impar tial judgment, in all cases, upon the conflict ing claims of the heroes of the hustings, the controllers of caucuses and conventions, the chairmen of executive committees, and the rag-tag (and bob-tail of the grand army of office-seekers who would gladly devour every green and living thing in the land. It is highly probable that occasionally the plac3 which should have been given to Smith, as a due reward for party services rendered, has fallen into the possession of the less deserving Jones, and that the new edition of the Blue Book for 18(1!) will record a distribution of salaries and emoluments decidedly distasteful, not only to tho whole body of the Democracy, but even to many magnates of the Republican organization. This calamity will occur, how ever, to some extent, even under the rule of l'rosidents who have made a judi cious distribution of the spoils the great study of their lives, and it is impossible to avoid disappointments and mistakes when the applicants are ten times as numerous as the positions. The gravest charge against the President, in this connec tion, is that he has shown a desire to bestow official favors upon his relatives, and upon those who have rendered personal services to himself. Like a true Scotchman, he stands by his friends and his clan; and even if the truth of the aocusation, in its broadest sense, be acknowledged, we cannot see that any great harm will necessarily result to the nation from this feature of his policy. The most damaging imputation that can be made against an aspiring politician is, that he is not true to his friends, and it is scarcely just to condemn Grant for the readiness with which he has learned one of the first lessons of the class that is now disposed to condemn him. Another charge is that he is so averse to display as to be positively awkward on grand ceremonial occasions. But painful as it may be to the butterflies of fashion, or the lovers of ostentation, to witness his short comings in ball-room etiquette, or his steady avoidance of oratorical demonstrations, we think the people can easily be induced to pardon these deficiencies. It matters little to the thirty-eight millions of toilers scattered through the land whether he wears his hat or takes it off in the presence of the dashing belles of the sea-side, and Andy Johnson did enough in the line of commending the Constitution and thirty-six stars to the protection of his countrymen, to exbnorate his successor from all forms of stump-speechifying. For a time the N. Y. World bitterly assailed the President for his alleged connivance at the schemes of tEe Cuban revolutionists and his apparent neglect to enforce the neutrality laws. The recent action of the administration, however, has bo thoroughly vindicated its vigilance in this respect, that its assailants are obliged to change thoir tactics and to accuse it of undue subserviency to Spain. Meanwhile the ex cess of the receipts of the Treasury over the expenditures constitutes a crowning glory of the Presidential policy. It is due, in a large measure, to the resolute determination of the new Exeoutive to infuse economy, efficiency, and honesty into all branches of the revenue service; and in view of the increasing im portance of financial tpiestions, there could be no better claim to the confidence of the people than that which is being steadily established by the rapid reduction of the na tional debt. THE " IIUMDLE JUDGMENT" OF VAUX. Kichaud has been himself again once more. When the unterrified assembled at Harris burg a week or two ago, Vaux journeyed thither as. one of the great outside throng which roared itself hoarse with shouting for Packer or Cass. Vaux did not roar, however at least not on this occasion although it was solely his own fault that he held his poaee. At a critical moment in the history of the convention, when the elements of harmony and discord wero almost equully poised, when the pickpockets without and the picked pockets within were contemplating another affray, whenlthe merest noothing word would have made everything lovely and serene, when a single distasteful nttorance would have plunged the whole assemblage iuto De mocrats chaos; when, in short, the conven tion had nothing else under the stin to do for the moment except to fight at this critical period Vaux was invited, by unanimous reso lution, to address tho convention. But Vaux did not respond, and, although ho did not re spond, expectancy hold sway until tho crisis was passed and bloodshed, with all other pos sible attendant ills, avorted. v The cause of Vaux's silence u this momen tous occasion was a mystery at the time, the solution of which is just made clour. The stupendous and stifling emotions which wellod up from his overflowing heart on tho evening of June 16, when he mado his famous address to tho Knights of the Temple at the Academy of Music, were sufficiently stupen dous and stifling to prostrate any ordinary man, and even to interfere seriously with the digestion and ratiocination of such an extra ordinary man as Vaux himsolf. Time, how ever, is the great cure-all, and timo will usu ally restore to their normal action the func tions of an intellect so disordered, by undue yielding to tho emotional, m io swamp me nigner law in a flood of idealistic power. Hence, although Richard was not sufficiently himself again to venture with safety before McMullin, Bucka lew, Lyster, Hughes, Galbraith, and the rest of "the boys" at norrisburg, the lapse of another fortnight sufficed to do the work, and yesterday afternoon "the veteran" appeared before the convention for revising the rules of the party, in such porfoct command of all the wondrous faculties of his being that he was able, without the slightest degree of hesi tation, to announce to his co-laborers ia the field of party reform his "humble judgment" on a very important matter. The con vention, Vaux declared, on accepting the high honor of the chairmanship, "Has assembled here to-ilay to do what, In my humble judgment, slmll enable this great party In Philadelphia, as It demands, to have Its nominations, and its delegates, and Its conventions, stand the test of severest scrutiny." Such, in the "humble judgment" of Vaux, was the grand object which had called the representatives of the Philadelphia De mocracy together. It smacks so strongly of desirability, approaches so closely to absolute and downright necessity, that it is made to par take, in some measure, of the sublime. There is to be no tomfoolery about the thing. The recent nominations, and delegates, and con ventions of the Democracy in this city have not been able "to stand the test of severest scrutiny,'" and while Vaux is free to admit this incontestable fact, his co-reformers are eager to add their testimony by outbursts of wild applause. Else why these words from the lips of Vaux, immediately preceding the sentence already quoted? "There never was a time In the history of the Philadelphia Democracy more Important to Its fu ture prosperity and success than the 27th day of July, 1809. With the pant, tt ith the action of conoen tiutiK that liare preceded tet, we have nothing to do. H'e xcere called anil hacc convened for no purport but the jvtvrc: Having thus ratified the universal condem nation of the Stewart-Ahern ticket; having thus confessed that the very weakest sort of scrutiny unsettles the riotous assemblages at the National Guards and Washington Halls; and having thus laughed in the face of his indignant followers, with the assurance that the convention is to deal only with the future, leaving the dead past to bury its dead, ac cording to the fashion of the times, Vaux stalls upon another line of thought, scents the unsavory negro in his path, pours the vials of his wordy wrath upon his head, and, fearful that mere words will not win the bat tle for a white man's government, begins to froth and foam and talk about the neces sity for a fight, "if he is not greatly mistaken." This little qualification gives us great joy. It shows that, although Vaux, inspired and impelled by the tumult of applause with which almost every sentence was received, had contrived to excite himself so unduly as to bring on the symptoms of an attack of white man on the brain, his " hum ble judgment" was still in full play, and whispered him that he might possibly be mis taken, and possibly mistaken to a very con siderable extent. We are inclined to indorse this view of the matter, and to express our belief that Vaux will die as he has lived, a man of peace, averse to musketry as well as to nigger voting. SILENCE THAT DREADFUL BELL! This morning the Fairmount Engine Com pany started on an excursion to Atlantic City. This event has probably been looked forward to with many agreeable anticipations by the members of the company and their friends, and we hope that the anticipations will be fully realized. By a very large number of the citizens of Philadelphia, however, no in terest whatever is felt in the movements of the Fairmount Engine Company; and although there are perhaps few hard hearted enough to desire that they may meet with any misad ventures to mar their pleasure, there are very many who care nothing at all about them one way or another. This may not be very complimentary to tho members of the Fairmoant Engine Company, but it is the truth, nevertheless; and these citizens, so long as they do not in terfere with the movements and legitimate pleasures of the members of tho company, have some rights that firemen are bound to respect. We therefore object, in the name of all the citizens of Philadelphia, to the Fair- mount or any other engine company making their pleasure trips public nuisances. This morning, before four o'clock, everybody vwujiu a ramus ot more than half a mile was aroused from slumber by the furious ringing of the Fairmount Engine bell, which was con tinued without intermission for an hour. This method of testifying to thoir jubilation at the prospect of a day's pleasure at Atlantic City might have been very good fun for the mem- uers oi me company, but. to those who were not intorAKl ,wv. (u luo jouiiication it was au annoyance of the mostrious character. And when we consider the number of sick persons within the sound of the bell, who were ago nized for a full hour by the senseless per formance, it was an outrage that deserves the severest condemnation. This occurrence illustrates what was said in these columns, but a few days ago, on the in expediency of permitting bell-ringing at all within the city limits. The church bolls, that keep up a dismal clangor for the greater part of each Sabbath, disturbing the rest and quiet that people have a right to enjoy on that day; the fire-bells, that are sounded at all hours of tho day and night; the factory bolls, and all others, have nothing that can be urged in their favor except custom, and the custom has become one that would bo much more honored in the breach than the observance. Some persons may take a do light in the ringing; but, leaving out of the quostion the sick, hundreds of whom are day and night within the sound of each one of those tintinabulatory tormentors, there aro very many who experience the groatost an noyance from them. In every large city there aro necessary noises that nervous poople havo to submit to, whother they like them or not; but boll-ringing is not nocossary, and it is a nuisance of the first magnitude, that ought to be abated. It is not possible to estimate the actual suffer ing that was caused this morning by the senseless performance of the Fairmount En gine excursionists. Within tho Bound of their bell wero hundreds of sick persons who had been turning all night on beds of pain, and who perchance were just falling into slumber and cessation of suffering, when their agonies wero renowed because a party of men wished to inform the city in tho most public manner possible that they were about to start for a day's jollification at tho seaside. It is preposterous that such an outrage should be permitted in- a great city supposed to be inhabited by civilizod people, and the occur rence furnishes an excellent argumont in favor of the speedy abolition of the whole ridiculous custom of bell-ringing within tho city limits. Statistics ok Fkanck The Bulictin dee Lois Rives some Interesting statistics of tho Inhabitants of France during the last twenty years. In 1846, tlio population was 35,400,480; In 1850, 30,039,304; In 1800, 38,007,094. In the first ten years the Increase was 000,008, and In the second period 2,027,730. The an nexation of Savoy and Nice in lsno accounts for this large disproportion ijfor the ratio of Increase In France Is only onc-lirtucnth of that of tho United States. In 1803, tho births were 930,9JT; the deaths, 795,007; the marriages, 208,609. In 1S0S, the births were 1,OOC,25S; the deaths, 884.573; the marriages, 602,180. l'er-MoiiuliticM. Robert J.
