PA CKERSLETTER OF A CCEVTANCR.
Aba Tackeb's letter accepting the Democratic
Gubernatorial nomination will bo found in
another portion of to-day's Telegraph. Its
most remarkable feature in the studious
avoidance of national politics. The platform
of the State Convention embracod several of
the true-blue Democratic planks which were
antagonized and ridiculed by a number of the
Democratic journals in other States. The
World thought that one of the resolutions
conceded too much, and the New York Citizen
expressed the belief that the stubborn re
affirmation of old heresies indicated that the
party needed another whipping in this State,
which it would be pretty sure to get.
Packer displays his native Yankee shrewd
ness in dodging these troublesome issues.
The bulk of his letter might have been writ
ten by the candidate of any parly; and it
would emanate as appropriately from a cham
pion of llepublieanism as from a leader in the
Israel of old-fashioned Democracy. The
faithful are not even regaled with a screed of
doctrine against negro sufl'rage. and not a
single blast is blown in favor of the precious
Stato rights which, in the judgment of the
leaders of the party, have been shamefully
violatod by the adoptiou of the new constitu
tional amendment ut the last session of the
Legislature.
It is evident that Asa I'aeker does not con
sider it politic to endorse the current senti
ments of his party. Democracy down South
is reduced to the strait of seeking shelter
under a so-called Conservative National Union
Republican banner, while their candidate
in this Commonwealth contents himself with
a silence on national topics, indicating that
he is either ashamed or afraid to pronouueo
the shibboleth of his organization.
By discarding, in this unceremonious man
ner, all partisan dogmas and doctrines, and
assuming the privilege of making a platform
out of the materials that, in his judgment,
are most attractive to voters, the Democratic
candidate manages to construct a creditable '
creed. The good men of all parties desire
the preservation of the State credit, the re
duction of governmental expenses, the promo
tion of general prosperity, the just execution
of the lays, the extensiou of educational
faoilities, the suppression of legislative cor
ruption, and the prevention of all improper
uses of the public funds. ia are glad that
these promises are made, and if Packer
should be elected we hopo he will faithfully
redeem them.
It is a curious circumstance that while the
resolutions of the Democratic State Conven
tion all refer to national topics and ignore
State issues, with one or two trifling excep
tions, its candidate has adopted au exactly
opposite course. The party marches in one
direction and its leader in another. The
party cares so little for the State reforms ho
professes to have at heart that it did not
say a word in their favor, beyond the ex
pression of tho opinion that a reform in the
State finances is "imperatively demanded."
And we are by no means sure that tho
party will not be disposed to resent his
neglect or refusal to endorse its ideas on na
tional affairs, by a refusal to respond to his
sentiments on State topics. His zealous sup
porters in the Fourth ward will scarcely ap
plaud to the echo his avowed determination to
exercise the pardoning power in a cautious
and sparing manner; and if the pickpockets
who thronged the avenues to the State Con
vention were well assured that this pledge
would be faithfully adhered to, ho would lose
many votes. Besides, what will the despe
rately Democratic districts say to a further
extension of the school system? It has re
quired years of persistent effort to reconcile
portions of Berks county to the present law,
and if they believed that Pucker's election
would really lead to an advance movement in
the same direction, all their old hatred for
John Adams and their old love for General
Jackson would not prevent a diminution of
the standard majority in tho Democratic
stronghold.
ISAAC TOUCEY.
Tue maxim De mortuis nil itixi hoimm is
creditable to human nature, but as a princi
pie it has been sadly abused and perverted to
restrain honest criticism and condemnation of
evil-doers. It is fitting that when a man dies
the personal strifes iu which ho has been en
gaged should cease, and that those with whoiu
he has been most warmly engagod iu the
great battle of life should pause at his grave,
allow their passions to subsido, and endeavor
to take a more liberal and more charitable
View of his character and works thau it would
be possible to do when living. Indeed, it
Booms proper that when any man passe away
from earth, a fair summing-up of his life
should be made in the interests of truth and
justice, nothing set down in malice, nothing
evil in lum extenuated beyond waking a rea
sonable allowance for tho weaknesses and in
firmities of human nature.
In judging of such a man as Isaao Toucey,
What can the largest charity urge in his favor,
memory from a just ignominy ? He was an
officer holding a powerful and influential po
sition under the Government, and he delibe
rately and systematically betrayed the great
trust that was confided to him. He not only
gave his countenance- and support to the
traitors who were seeking to dostroy the
nation, but previous to the outbreak of the
Rebellion he was in full sympathy with the
conspirators, and made use of the power that
had been placed in his hands to prepare the
way for them, and to make it easy for them
to strike the fatal blow which it was hoped
would put an end to tho national existence,
destroy our free institutions, and perpetu
ate human slavery on this continent. Before
the election of Mr. Lincoln gave the conspi
rators an ostensible pretext for putting their
plans into execution. Mr. Toucey, as
Secrtaery of the Navy, had placod
many of the best and most patriotic officers
of the service on the retired list; and the
principal naval vessels were despatched to
distant quarters of the globe, where it would
be months before they could rendor any as
sistance. After the breaking out of the lle
bellion, he acceptod without question, all tho
resignations that were offered, and so far as
he dared, as a member of Buchanan's Cabinet,
ho opouly gave his aid and support to tho
cause of treason.
It might be urged in extenuation of tho
conduct of some of the Southern men who
engaged iu the Rebellion, that they had been
educated into the belief that slavery was a
divine institution ; they had large sums of
money invested in slave property, and by con
stant agitation and brooding on the subject
they had become as fanatical with regard to
retaining it as they claimed some of the peo
ple of the North were with regard to aboli
tionism. They were educated, too. in the
Calhoun school of politics, and from their
earliest years had the notions of Southern
superiority instilled into them, and were
taught to look upon a dissolution
of the Union as a possible, probable, and
proper solution for the agitation of the
slavery question. No excuses like these, piti
ful as they are, can be urged in favor of Isaac
Toucey. He was a Northern man, born and
bred in Connecticut. He reeeivod a North
ern free-school education; tie saw from his
earliest childhood what the blessings of froo
institutions were; all his interests, hopes, and
natural affiliations were with the loyal portion
of the nation, and yet he did not hesitate to
betray his country and to violate the high
trust imposed upon him at the bidding of his
Southern masters, who despised him as they
affected to despise the people of tho State and
section which he represented. Ere long they
found reason to respect Mr. Toueey's fellow
citizens of Connecticut, but their opinion of
him must have continued to the last.
Mr. Toucey lived to see the great conspiracy
expand into a gigantic rebellion, that for a
time seemed to be on the high road to suc
cess; ho witnessed its destruction, and saw tho
nation come out of the conflict stronger,
greater, and more powerful than before sla
very abolished forever, and the men whom he
had sought to aid disfranchised and placed
below their own bondmen in the scalo of po
litical equality. Mr. Toucey died unhonored
and unlamented. He belonged to a class of
men that are of use sometimes to do dirty
political work, but whom nobody moro
heartily despises than their employers. Ho
gained nothing by his subserviency to trea
son but obloquy and disgrace, which will for
ever cling to his memory.
THE FOLLY OF WISE.
When Wise received the tidings of tho result
of the Virginia election, ho was, unhappily,
at the point of death. But tho news infused
new life into his limbs, and enabled him to
titke up his bed, although it did not set him
as firmly on his legs as it might have done.
He lifted up his voice also, which was a bad
sign, as it has always been for Wise, and be
came very noisy in returning thanks for his
deliverance from the niggers and the scala
wags. Wise evidently, although able to lift
up both his bed and his voice, is yet
in a very bud way, or else is of such a devout
turn of mind that he is thankful for the very
smallest sort of favors, and when he has noth
ing at all to be thankful for, is thankful in
spite of tho world and fate. The carpet-bagger,
Walker, whoso election to the Guber
natorial chair of Virginia caused both his heart
and his legs to leap with joy, is not a whit
better than the veriest scalawag that has
emigrated to the late C. S. A. iu search of
office, if his public utterances both before and
after his election are to be taken as indica
tions of his sentiments; while several negroes
were candidates for the Slate Legislature on
the Walker ticket, and elected in opposition
to tho despicable creatures over whoso defeat
Wise became so jubilant.
Pisksipknt SutMii'.NTo, of the Argentine
Republic, who was for several years the en
lightened representative of his country at
Washingtou, bus infused new life into the
nation over which he has fortunately been
called to rule. Since tho Spanish colonies of
South America first threw oft' tho voke and
set up for themselves, none of them has
been favored with unother chief magistrate
who possessed so many admirable qualifica
tions for the position. The result is already
manifest. Despite the oppressive drawback
of the Paraguayan war, the Argentine Re
public is showing unmistakable sigus of pros
perity. During the past year between twenty
and thirty thousand emigrant have sought a
new home within its borders, while not more
than twelve thousand, in the same period,
ventured to take up their ubodo iu Brazil.
The latter country has for years enjoyed the
reputation of being the ouly one in South
America which was blessed with a stable
Government, affording full protection to per
son and protierty, but the Argentine ltepub
lio can now fairly and justly claim to bo
added to the meagre list. And if Brazil is to
be weighed down for au indefinite period bv
mo ineubuHof human bondage, it will not be
long before its smaller neighbor will load it
Ralph Waldo Emerson has declared him
self in favor of woman's rights. At least he
has given expression to ten bines of printed sor
row because of his inability to journey twenty
or thirty miles by rail to attend a gathering
of the women righters. It is true, however, that,
unlike soma of the women righters, he does
not regard the advocacy of female suffrage as
absolutely "imperative" upon him. Moreover,
while he regards woman's claim to tho ballot
as 'foundod in equity," and thinks that "tho
seriousness and thoughtfuluess with which it
is urged; seem to mark an important step in
civilization," he has some doubts upon "the
precise form in practice it will and ought to
take." Evidently, Mr. Emerson has not for
gotten that he is himself a man, and that, as
a man, he has some rights which woman is
bound to respect. He is not as enthusiastic
in the woman's rights business as he might be.
Thf. Jubilee Business at the Hub proved
so profitable and poetical that Oilmore finds
rivals springing up on all sides. Philadelphia,
as President Grant and all the rest of the world
know, is to have a grand musical tournament
in the course of six or eight years, prepara
tions for which are already under way. But
Springfield is much nearer the "burning axle
tree" of the universe than the Quaker City,
and therefore sets down her own particular
Jubilee for. the 8th of September. Being
comparatively a small town, and correspond
ingly modest, in pretensions as well as in re
sources, she exhibits a decent regard for the
proprieties of tho easo by limiting her chorus
to three hundred voices, and her big drum to
a diameter of three feet. With all this mode
ration, it to be hoped that the Boston papers
will not attempt to suppress the whole affair
by frowning upon the preliminaries.
XA VA h ST A FF It A XK.
Thk subject of naval stair rank is one of frequent
and, at. this time, necessary discussion in the medi
cal and general press. It is to le regretted if any
disposition to take sides and contend for u party
triumph should Induce either line or stair to overlook
the merits of a question which concerns the whole
navy. As no stuir rank in any way conflicts with the
military authority of the line, It would seem to he
essentially the interest of the Hue to demand that
every encouraging inducement tie offered to bring
Into the service as their uids and associates the most
capable and respectable stair officer, ami espe
cially as their own dignity Is increased by the worth
and dignity of those they command.
The piinclple, it may be said the natural law, upon
which the whole matter cau be settled, is so simple
and so clear, that any one in the service, or out of it,
can understand it. The principle is tnat gentlemen
rendering service in the stair corps of the navy may
confidently look to reaching a position of rank and
emolument corresponding to that which respectable
men of their vocation would attain in civil life. This
principle Is such a natural law that a unanimous
agreement of the whole service, and of Congress, to
compromise or arrange the mutter short of the law,
would leave the same incongruity and elements of
discord which now exist. Individuals are no more
responsible for the disturbance than for the power of
gravitation. A compromise against principle is
equivalent to agreeing that water should run up hill ;
aud unless the service recognizes this law, it cannot
enter Into competition with the inducements to
remain iu civil life, und must be content with an Infe
rior and incompetent staff.
Those who recognize the breadth and power of this
principle will liavo the statesman's honor of giving
efficiency and harmony to the naval service, a peace
and harmony never known In its existence, and
never to be known while there is such a displace
ment of any part of the machinery. Tho next and
subordinate condition is to arrange the position of
staff oillcers in the naval service so that it shall,
with advancing years, not be Inferior to that of able
und honorable members of the same vocation in
civil lire, and shall keep pace with that of line oill
cers of equal years.
CROPS.
The Prospects In the West nod Northwent.
The Cincinnati Price Current of Wednesday
says: The .wheat, oat, and barley crops have
been secured in the entire valley o'f the Ohio, in
excellent condition, and the result has been
highly satisfactory. Hay has been injured some,
while beinjr harvested, bv the heavy rains, but
not seriously. The crop is good. Corn is doing
very well in the Ohio valley, the growth being
very rapid; but in that part of the State border
lug on the lakes, and in Northern Illinois, it is
in a bad condition and tfannot be more than a
moderate crop, owins to the unusual amount of
ruin which has fallen, and the cold, backward
spring.
The spring wheat in the Northwest is in bad
condition, uud doubtless will be badly damaged,
as rain has fallen at intervals iu that region of
country during tho ptist week. There has been
some improvement in trade duriug tho week.
Flour and grain arc generally higher, and there
has been a pressing demand'for hew wheat from
the lake towns and from the East, far in excess
of the supply, and at steadily advancing prices.
Corn has been very scarce and prices have
largely advanced.
