A DIET OF RATS FOR THE L ADOR ING CLAUSES. Law evening, for the first time, a Honsible query was propounded in tbo frothy labor convention which has been holding its ses sions here during the present week. A colored delegate from Maryland was upon the floor, engaged in the discussion of the coolie ques tion. According to his view of the case, the coolie conies to this country, if ho comes at all, not to take the place of the negro laborer, but to push the white man to the wall; and in support of this theory, the sable gentleman from Maryland turned upon his paler col leagues with the pertinent question, "Can you eat rats ?" A roar of laughter was the only response which the brawny sons of toil could make, but the response was characteris tic of the utter lack of wisdom and common sense which has marked their proceedings from the outset. After five days were passed in wrangling over that irrepressible gentleman, Miss Susan . Anthony, and in listening to the stupid vagaries of old Frank Blair and Helper, tho renegade of "Impending Crisis" fame, inter spersed with the still more stupid platitudes which the delegates themselves brought forth, the so-called Congress, late in tho session of yesterday, reached the momentous question of a vote upon the platform. As adopted, it is constituted of seventeen planks, and each plank is worthy of - its origin. All the bosh and nonsense which Blair and Helper and the rest of them have gotten off during the week is bore boiled down and simmered out until it presents as frail and niry a fabric as a strip of gossamer cloth. The national banking sys tem is denounced because, of course, no member of the convention has his name upon a list of stockholders; and because, furthermore, it conflicts with a wonderful document known as tho Constitution of the United States. The pres ent rate of interest is denounced, because, as a man with half an eye can see, at five per cent, twice as much money can bo borrowed as when the rate of interest is at ten. The entire monetary system of the country is de nounced, because, as the world goes, it is capital that employs labor, and not labor that employs capital, and the attempt of labor to enslave capital is not always and invariably successful. The payment of the national debt in tho hard coin to which tho nation is pledged, tho present rate of interest paid by tho Government, and the exemption of the national securities from taxation are de nounced, because the bloated bondholders take a different view of mcum and taunt from that held by the revolutionary members of the Congress. Land monopolies are de nounced because, when a laboring man enters upon this sphere of speculation, he loses all interest in labor unions and labor con gresses, and in the cheap buncombe in which they delight to indulge. Ten hours daily toil are denounced, because eight hours will give a laboring man more time to study po litical economy and finauce and agitate the great labor question, even at the expense of a decrease of twenty per cent, in tho amount of his daily earnings. The equal assessment of taxation is denounced, because, if all the revenue of the Government were derived from the capitalists, the laborers could better afford to devote a good share of their time to attendance upon labor congresses. And, finally, although Miss Susan B. Anthony was so roughly handled by the convention, the women of the country are invited to rally around the standard of tho men and partici pate in the grand revel which will follow the impending overthrow of the present order of things. Precisely what the convention is doing to-day we are not advisod as we writo, but there is one thing which it has promised to do that receives our hearty endorsement, and that is to adjourn. The city has had about enough of it, and will take leave of the dele gates without any profound expressions of regret. They have accomplished nothing, and despite the passage of a resolution to got up a new party which shall smash all tho old parties without much ado, and the defeat of a re solution declaring that nothing in the platform shall be construed as a repudiation of the national debt, it is safe to say that they have harmed no one except themselves and injured nothing save the cause which they professsod to represent. If tho sun, moon, and stars should chance to take tho back track, at tho bidding of the Congress, and a general moral, social, economical, financial, industrial, and cosmical upheaval should result, the laboring classes throughout the country would De com pelled to respond in the affirmative to the query of the dusky savan from Maryland: "Can you eat rats?" THE NEW YOJIK JUDICIARY. The people of this city have heard often enough comments on the scandalous corrup tion in the New York courts, but except the comparatively few who habitually read the daily papers of that city in which the pro ceedings of the courts are reported in detail, have any adequate idea of tho demoralization that actually exists. In the hands of such men as Junticos Barnard, McCunn, Cardozo, and others of the New York bench, justice is not merely a burlesque, bnt its name is used to ;over a multitude of crimes. These men are the paid employes of politicians, railroad speculators, and ring-masters generally, and all the machinery of the law is put in opera tion whenever required for the benefit of their clients. All the powers of tho judiciary in the way of mandamusos, injunctions, writs of habeas corpus, attachments, etc, are used with a recklessness and utter want of scruple that bid fair to ruin some of the groatest business enterprises of the city and the State, if some moans for effecting a reform is not speedily devised. Tho Erie war and the Susquehanna Railroad war, in which rival bands of stock gamblers fired away at each other with injunctions and counter injuctions from different courts of concurrent jurisdiction, until such ammuni tion being exhausted they actually came to blows and bloodshed, are recent instances that have attracted tho attention of the whole country. In the case of the last-named road, matters come to such a pass, that to preserve the public peace, the Governor of the State was obliged to interfere and take the matter into his own hands, thus superseding tho courts. The precedent thus set is itself full of evil augury for the future, but under the circum stances nothing else was to bo done, and this illegal assumption of power mot with general commendation. Tho New York Times, which is the most unpartisan, tho most independent, and gene rally the most impartial and discreet of the journals of that city, gave, a fow days ago, a severe but just and porfectly correct review of Judge Barnard's conduct in the Susquo hanna Railroad difficulty. It showed how ho issued the writs of his Court, not from the bench, but from tho office of the Erie Kail road Company, and proved conclusively that he was nothing more nor loss than the paid employe of risk and his co-conspirators. This article touchod Barnard to the quick, and yesterday at the opening of tho Court he commenced a tirade against the present as well as the late editor of the Timet, stating with regard to the supposed writer of the article, that he (Barnard) had saved him some five years ago from being sent to the penitentiary for forgery, and then asserted that the late Mr. Raymond had gone home drunk and fell down dead after attack ing and misrepresenting the character of Barnard, thereby implying that the sudden death of the honored editor of the Times was a judgment from heaven on account of Barnard. This judge also stated that hereafter ho in tended to make a personal expose of tho per sonal character of his assailants; so wo may expect some highly edifying remarks about the private history of the prominent New York journalists from him ere long. As for tho charge brought against tho memory of Mr. Raymond, or the still more disgraceful allegations with regard to tho present edi tor of tho llmex, no one believes thorn; aud no one will, except on better evidence than tho vindictive asseveration of a man of Judge Barnard's well-known character. Another characteristic specimen of the New York Judiciary is McCunn, who does tho dirty work of tho Democracy, aud whose recent conflict with the United States autho rities has brought him into notoriety. McCunn has again distinguished himself by ordering the unconditional roleaso of the de faulting teller of tho Tennessee Bank, refus ing to postpone proceedings, although he was informed that tho Governor had remanded the man to tho custody of the Tennessee au thorities on the requisition of the authorities of that State. These instances show in the most glaring manner tho magnitude of tho evils of an elec tive judiciary, especially where tho Demo cracy are able to obtain the control of the political machinery. In this city we have managed thus far to keep our courts pure and unspotted by a suspicion of tho sole of jus tice, but the elective system whieh we have as well as New York is an evil that may soma day master us as it has done our swter city. The Judges of the New York bench wield a power that ought not to be in tha hands of any man or set of mon in a free country. They are their own masters, and the masters of the people, responsible to nobody but themselves, and perfectly willing to sell themselves to tho highest bidder. New York submits to a great deal in the way of official corruption; but it does not seem that the present state of affairs can last much longer. Already the Union Pacific Railroad has been obliged to remove its office to another city, and other great companies are preparing to follow suit; and if something is not done in the way of reform, the Demo cracy will bo the ruin of New York, as it has been the ruin of whatever else it has touched. THE GETTYSBURG REUNION. If special pains are not taken by those who engineer tho Gettysburg reunion movement to avoid partiality, there is danger that, in stead of setting history right, undue weight may be given to erroneous theories, and that the whole demonstration will result in a gigantic gratuitous advertisement of the new watering-place on the one hand, and injustice to the memory of some of the dead and ab sent heroes of tho fight on the other. It is perhaps unavoidable at Gettysburg, as well as at all other great battle-fields, to prevent the men in epaulettes from monopolizing the honors won by the hard fighting and unfail ing courage of tho rank and file. How many blunders or neglects of commanding officers were covered up during the three days fight by tho heroism of the boys in blue the world will never know; but even tho disputed ques tions between the officers may not be equitably adjusted if the attendance of repre sentative men is not complete. The absonce of a single important witness may turn tho whole scale of evidonce in an ordinary mur der trial, and before a oomplete aud veritable account of the details of one of the greatest battles of the world can be compiled, every essential link of testimony should be supplied. This is even more essential at Gettysburg than on ordinary battle-fields, not only on account of tho magnitude and com plicated nature of the movements which occurred there, but on account of the bitter controversies which have arisen in regard to the struggle. Some of the most important witnesses now olunibor in honored graves. Reynolds, Sedgwick, Birney, Farns worth, and many other officers are doad, and Sickles, whose conduct has been severely criticized, as well as many other officers who took an active part in the conflict will neces sarily be absent. At the best, any now deci sions that may be roached will therefore not be fortified at all points by absolutely conclusive evidence, and some of the questions involved will probably remain as open to future doubt and dispute as they aro at this moment. If the reunion results in an attostation of soma of tho leading facts, this is perhaps all that can be reasonably expected. Iff Z2 W-TT O K It Z S ZVX 3. from Our Own Correspondent, New Yokk, August 21, 1SG9. On (lit that IWrii. Stowe hnn been Mn ripped I' ft by Robert Bonner, at the rate of t-VK) per column (payable lu roVI) to write the ''true dory" of all the "separated" wives of distinction from Charles Dickens' to Charles Sumner's, including Matilda Heron aud not forgetting Sarah Ann Leslie. Her "true story" of Lady Byron has met with such remarkable and instant success, is so Indicative of womanly intuition into char acter and delicate appreciation of private mo tives, that I should not be surprised were that editor of the hard-cash conscience, Homier, to throw over Mrs. Southworth altogether, aud install the reckless "Atlantic Monthlyist" in her place. One and all of the newspapers here join in the attack upon her, and she is catchiug It hot and heavy. If Mr. Bonner docs not succeed in securing her services, I presume the New York Sunday Mercury or the Day's Doings will. The woman who possesses such a capability for winning the confidences of injured wives, and thou rushing with them iuto print, deserves to be read by a much wider set of readers than the perusers of the Atlantic amouut to. It is a pity she has not the chance of repeating the experi ment. It is high time to regard with suspicion the inner lives of distinguished men who are separated from their wives. Well may they dread to die. The Great American Unmasker Is abroad, aud the cofllu-lid shall scarcely close over them ere their hearts will be "torn before the crowd." The DIlss (jrrlrmlc Clark who some weeks ago (led from this country, seized with the desire of becoming an actress, has returned a wiser, but not necessarily a sadder girl. She has had uothiug to make her sadder. The salt-water has added a rose to her complexion, aud during the trip she has gathered ii wealth of health, for the lack of which nor gold nor greenbacks could compensate. She was discovered in obscure but comfortable lodgings in Dublin, aud wa preparing to make her first appearance iu one of those characters in which Anna Cora Mowatt, in former years, created such furore. Her ardor is a little damped, but neither her nose nor her eyes have become rubescent with the plaintive snivel of the re pentant prodigal. She is a high-spirited, good girl, who has been "out on a lark,"aud appears to have enjoyed It considerably. Madame l'arepa's Senwin or English Opera commences iu this city nt the French Theatre three weeks from this evening. She has made a goodly collection of prime donne and tenori, aud during her recuperation nt the watcring jilucoe has addod another tliin to Iho several that already scollop the way to her lovely little neck. Madame Rosa will appear in Balfc's Puritan's Daughter, and perhaps will be pre vailed upon to do "Juliet" or "Kosiua," in the latter of which, because of the short dress, she is said to present an extremely attenuated ap pearance. Carl Rosa is goiug to be the busi ness manager of the establishment, and Parepa Rosa is going to be the business manager of ! him. Each having a suitable department to attend to, harmony must be the result. I am not surprised to learn that Philadelphia Is (Jetting Short of Water. Any city which permits its Biddies to wash front pavements to the extent the front pave ments of Philadelphia are washed before 7 o'clock of a Saturday morning, deserves such a visitation us this. Fainnouut has for a long time winked at the iniquity of this waste of w ater, and can only remedy the evil by removing the cause. The efforts of a gang of New York roughs to Itreak t'p a Picnic, which took place a day or two ago at one of the suburbs, have struck a heavy blow at these sum mer jaunts. The Eimnett Guard, every member of w hich was accompanied by oue or more ladies, was celebrating some festal occasion, when it was suddenly attacked by a crowd of these runtime, whose choicest pleasure it Is to insult women and children. In an instant the happy pleasure-party were converted iuto the actors of a scene which at one time bade fair to end tragically. Fortunately the Emniett Guard were too uumerously aud chivalrously repre sented for the ruflians to make as much way as they expected, although several of the Em niett Guard were severely wounded. Coucy Island Is one of the worst resorts of these gangs, and It Is a wonder that, in spite of all the efforts of the Commissioners, they have not yet penetrated into Central Park. Pro bably because, on making an attempt some years ago, they met with their match at once, and were put down in such a manner as gave them no hope of any ultimate success. The Emmett Guard affair, however, has put au end to the picnic furore. It will sec no resurrec tion until next summer. Au Baha. RELIGIOUS NOTICES. 8" JiXl'?,?T PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH, at Kh A M SQUARE.
