DEAD AND LIVE ISSUES.
Thk Democracy arc profoundly agitated by the
question whether they Rhall adhere to dead
ihsuch or seek to gain power by a vigorous
discussion of live ones. The diff erence in
their ranks on this subject is nearly as wide
as the difference between two distinct party
organizations; and as it is now mani
fested in nearly every section of the
country, the quarrel is decidedly interest
ing and important. In Pennsylvania
a sort or compromise was effected. The
dead-issue men constructed the plutfurin and
pledged the party to go on fighting for State
rights and against the ratification of the fif
teenth amendment in the most approved old
fafhioned style; while Packer, seeing, with
Yankee shrewdness, the folly of a contest of
this description, wholly ignored the platform,
and invited support solely on account of his
profesi-ed desire to purge the State government
of imbecility, extravagance, and corruption.
Jn Ohio another attempt was made to carry
water on both shoulders. The dead-issue
men made a platform embodying their ideas,
and placed upon it a live-issue candidate,
General Kosecrans, but he, instead of follow
ing Packer's example of accepting the nomi
nation and spitting on the platform, declined
the nomination, and made a declaration of
principles directly opposite to those which
the Ohio Democracy are now attempting to
maintain under the leadership of Pendleton.
He warned the party against the leadership
of fossils, and plainly iutimatod that if they
were not forced to the background, it would
not only fail to regain power but richly de
serve defeat. In Massachusetts, as the pros
pect is desperate in any event, John Quincy
Adams has been permitted to conduct the
campaign on the live issue plan, without op
position, and ho politely iuforms those who
adhere to the old system of ope
rations that they are as foolish
as General Lee would be in marshalling llebel
troops on the battle-field of Antietam to fight
over the old struggle, when no possible good
to a dead cause could result from his stupid
proceedings. In Now York, the quarrel be
tween the Belmontonians and the Tweedites
for the Chairmanship of the Deuioaratic
National Committee, while it involves various
personal issues, also hinges, to a con
siderable extent, on the live and dead issue
controversy. The World, which would gladly
infuse common sense into the councils of its
party, defends Bolmont, while Potueroy's
New York Democrat, which seeks to per
petuate the quarrels in which tho llebols and
the Democracy have been so badly defeated,
insists that Tweed shall lead the forces
of the party on to a new Appomattox.
Even in Kentucky the Louisville Courier
Journal, mindful of the necessities
of the hour, advocates an advanced
policy, for which it is denounced by its rural
contemporaries, and in other Southern States
the shrewd Democratic leaders lind great dif
ficulty in forcing their stubborn adherents to
prepare to "accept the situation" cordially,
when their revengeful feelings prompt theiu
to keep on butting their heads against a stoao
wall forever. The fight is really
between mind and matter. Both
factions desire the triumph of
the Democratic party, but the dead issue men
have not yet fully comprehended tho impera
tive necessity of an abandonment of repudia
tion, secession, and antagonism to the fif
teenth amendment. They think, with Shy
lock, that they might as well lose life as tho
means whereby they live, and that no defeat
can be more dreadful in its consequences than
a voluntary surrender of their favorite prin
ciples. They cannot realize that Democracy,
as they understand it, is dead past all hope
of resurrection, and that the organization can
only gain strength by seeking it in fresh fields
and pastures new.
TIIE CHINESE MISSION.
As was anticipated, the reports that comj
from Ifong Kong and Shanghai about the re
jection of the Burlingame treaty by tho
Chinese authorities, have been branded as a
falsehood, manufactured out of the whole
cloth. Mr. J. Boss Browne denies that the
treaty was rejected, and states that its ratifi
cation was only deferred until the return of
the Embassy. Mr. Burlingame, for his part,
has telegraphed to our Government that it
was well understood by him and explained to
'Mr. Seward and others, that none of the
treaties which he might conclude with foreign
powers would be ratified by the Chinese Gov
ernment until his return. During his visit
to the United States he had interviews with
prominent inventors and railroad men, and
made arrangements for tlieiu to visit China on
hia return, explaining to them that it would
be useless to commence business operations
until the treaties were approved.
Mr. J. Boss Browne, with regard to the per
sonal charoes brought against himself, donio
that he has ever disparaged Mr. Burlingame
or his embassy, or attempted in any way to
interfere with their functions. lie, however,
thinks that the old law of force will alone in
fluence the Chinese Government, or make it
respect the rights of foreigners, thus sustain-
ing the opinions which ho expressa i in ms
ill-advised address to the Shanghai uaaers
Mr Browne has proved very conclusively that
Le is not tho right man to bo entrusted wjth
such a delicate and responsible rnissiou as
that to China; with all his California pre jn
(I ces against the Chiuese in full force; it
v,i nneasy matter for tho 15nli-.Uresr.leuU
to win him over to their Interests, and his
conduct proves the wisdom of Grant's ad
ministration in ordering his prompt recall.
Mr. Browne'H failure, too, proves the necessity
for sending out a clear-headed and practical
statesman to occupy Mr, Burlingame's posi
tion one who will have no prejudices to
gratify, and who will exert himself to pro
mote friendly feelings between the two coun
tries. It is evident that the President is fully
impressed with the importance of this mis
sion, and that his delay in appointing a suc
cessor to Mr. Browne is caused by the diffi
culty of finding the right man for the place.
Among the candidates who have been men
tioned is Colonel William B. Mann, and we
scarcely think that the President could make
a better selection. Mr. Mann has ability
and energy, and in such an office as this ho
would have no friends to reward or enemies
to punish. There are good reasons
why Mr. Mann should have this apponit
nient. He is a pupil of William B. Heed,
fully posted in all the ideas of that gentle
man with regard to Chinese policy, and he
would seom to be tho properest person in the
world to occupy the only position in which
Mr. Reed ever did himself much credit. We
hope that the Presidnnt will nominate Mr.
Mann to tho Chiuoao, mission, and if ho can
also manage to send out with him General 0.
H. T. Collis as Secretary of Legation,
he will provide for a gallant soldier, who
thinks that his services have not been
sufficiently rewarded, and at the same time
do a favor to the Republicans of Pennsylva
nia that will ever be most gratefully remem
bered. The Chinese have tho reputation of
being a shrewd, cunning, and far-reaching
people, but if they can get ahead of Mann
and Collis ill any way, they will show more
sharpness than they have ever yet had credit
for. By all means let the President send
these two gentlemen out to China: it would
seem as if the mission were specially devised
for them, so weU fitted are they for it.
The Chinese mission is one that would do
Mr. Mann honor, and that he would bo
proud to nccept; and Mr. Collis would un
doubtedly jump at tho chance of going along
as Secretary of legation. The President does
not have an opportunity like this every day,
to kill two birds with one stone, and we hope
that he will avail himself of it.
SCIENTIFIC EDUCATION.
Those who notice changes iu the educational
systems of our country must have observed
the reaction which has taken place iu reg ird
to scientific training. When tho cry was first
raised against the classical curriculum, many
colleges modified their regular instruction,
throwing out Greek and Latin, to make ro.tui
for modern languages, and shortening the
time devoted to several other studies, in order
to introduce purely technical subjects. The
evil of this plan was at once evident. Stu
dents in such colleges, who sought clas
sical or other literary instruction, were
obliged to go elsewhere, and, but for tho
obstinate conservatism of certain institutions,
would now have been left with only "Hob
son's choice." The determination, however,
with which tho "old fogies" adhered to their
convictions in favor of a liberal course for
the general degree of B. A., and the zeal
they displayed in disseminating the prin
ciples on which thoy based these convictions,
produced the reaction to which we allude.
In no sense a formal compromise, this adjust
ment of opinion has been rather a natural
result of reform a perception, by
the radical side, of how extreme their pusi
tion was, and, by the slower-moving body, of
good even in radicalism. The issue has been
the entire separation of the two courses, ex
cept so far as students of either department
attend the special lectures of the other. The
scientific student graduates, but only after a
strict examination, as "Bachelor of Science."
not "of Arts," and is in every respect grade,
qualifications for admission and graduation,
subjects of examination, etc. as distinct a
member of the college or university a -5 art
the law or theological graduates.
The advantages of this system are obvious.
The young man whoso life is to be apart
from science does not care to study civil en
gineering; one whoso age or slender mean
prevent his prefacing his scientific with
purely literary studies, does not wish an ex
tended acquaintance with Latin or Greek:
while, in many cases, students do not wish
to graduate first as Bachelors of Arts, and
then seek technical preparation for the
scientific professions, as students of law,
medicine, or theology do. Where tho acade
mical and scientific courses are distinct, all
three classes of students are afforded ample
opportunities, and yet no violence is done to
either science or letters. Tho world gains
educated men in mechanical pursuits, but
loses none in the other walks of life.
By the early endowment of scientific
schools, Yale, Harvard, and a number of
other colleges have done much to prove both
tho value of these adjuncts to the regular
curriculum and untenability of tho more radi
cal position against the old culture. Second
ing, they have improved upon the merely
technical colleges, like tho Polytechnic of our
own city, and the Rensselaer Institute at
Troy; for they afford chances of general lite
rary study to non-graduates of tho academical
department, which the latter institu
tions cannot otter. Philadelphia has as
yet done but littlo for scieutifio educa
tion, though here, if anywhere, schools
of this character were to bo expected. Tho
trustees of the University of Pennsylvania
have for two years promised such a depart
ment, if our many wealthy and liberal
mechanics and manufacturers would supply
the necessary means for its support. Thoir
determination to fulfil their pledge appears
in the Btrenuous, efforts they are making, in
the face of their poverty, to extend this por
tion of their work. Still greater changes are
to bo inaugurated, we learu, at tho opening
of the new term on September 1.1. It is plea
sant to think that a city proverbially liberal
must ultimately do its full duty in this as iu
every good cause.
The Reason Why. "Why," naively asks
the New York World, "don't the radical
papers tell us something about the President
yl-.o 'swings r'untl the circle?'" Simp'y bo-
cause the TreRident who happens to be
"swinging round the circle" just at present
has some regard for deconcy and propriety,
no does not stop at every town that lies in his
path to got off an Inane political tirade, to
abuse the co-ordinate branches of tho Govern
ment, to tiandy words with roughs and raga
muffins, and to make himself generally a dis
grace to the country. That's the reason why
none of the radical papers see fit to abuse
the President for endeavoring to keep oool in
the dog-days by "swinging round the circle.'
THE C I'll AN VOIACY OF THE AD-
MINIS! RATION.
The many rumors which have been oirculatod
from time to time declaring that tho admin
istration proposod to buy Cuba from Spain,
or endorse Cuban bonds, arc now positively
denied on apparently good authority. The
main feature of Grant's domestic policy is
close attention to the collection of the reve
nues, and the dismissal of superfluous
officials, and the beneficial results of this
policy would speedily bo neutralized if money
was to be saved in our own country only to
replenish tho treasury of Spain.
It is alleged that General Sickles has bee n
instructed to request the recognition of Cuban
independence, with tho understanding that an
impartial commission is to place a just valua
tion upon tho governmental buildings, forts,
and other public property which would bo
turned over to tho revolutionists, and that
tho latter are to pay this sum to the mother
country.
This is a plain, common sense way of Rat
tling the difficulty, which deserves considera
tion, whether it has been officially suggested
or not, and it would promote tho real inte
rests of all parties. The greatest obstacle to
its adoption will arise from Spanish pride,
and when wo remember how hostile tho loya 1
portion of tho American people were to every
form of foreign intervention as well as to
tho disintegration of the Republic during our
own contest, we need not be astonished at the
reluctance of the successors of Ferdinand
and Isabella to surrender, at our bidding, tho
last jewel in the mighty diadem of colonial
possessions which wero won three centuries
ago.
Reason and policy, however, rather than
tradition, now control the practical move
ments of mankind. Tho new rulers of Spain
are so sadly beset with difficulties at home
that they have few soldiers and no money to
spare for a protracted conflict abroad, and if
Cuba is to continue to be, as at present, an
elc phant on their hands, they cannot afford to
keep her, and every dollar rescued from tho
wreck will be a clear gain.
THE SABINE HOAX.
The terrific story about the mutiny on board
of the practice ship Sabine at Cherbourg, and
the execution of six of the conspirators at the
yard-arm, turns out to be a gigantic canard.
A note from the Americgn legation in Paris
pronounces the story to be utterly without
foundation. If the matter is investigated it
will probably be discovered, as we suggested
yesterday, that the whole affair is the inven
tion of the midshipmen attached to the Sabine
for the purpose of hoaxing some inquisitive
picker-up of items at Cherbourg. Theso
young gentlemen probably had little idea that
their blood-thirsty yarn would unwind itself
clear across the Atlantic, and it is not difficult
to imagine their felicity when they discover
the sensation it created here. The whole
story was so manifestly improbable, not to say
impossible, that it is a matter for surprise
that the Associated press agent did not take
some little pains to discover the truth before
sending it over the cable. But the European
news collectorn, as we know by repeated ex
periences, are not the brightest witted indi
viduals in the world, and this particular gen
tleman seems to have swallowed hook, bait,
line, sinker, fishing-rod, and all, without hesi
tation. "Let us Have Peace!" The Boston 7W
intimates that another jubilee is about to
burst upon the world. It states that "tho
Coliseum is destined to be the centre of a
greater attraction and excitement than has
yet been experienced within its walls. We
shall not say in what manner, but 'things is
working.' Somebody will be made rich, and
a great many persons made happy." This
plainly squints towards a repetition of the
Gihuore uproar on a scale even more stu
pendous than the first. We are sorry for
Boston for two reasons. In tho first place,
we regret that tho aching ears of the Hubbites
oe again to be oppressed with an intolerable
din; and in tho second place, we sympathize
with Boston because even if it should suc
ceed in raising a greater row than it did last
summer, it will not and cannot possibly ap
proximate the grand clatter which is promised
Philadelphia on the Fourth of July, 1H7C,
active preparations for which are already in
progress.

gPT STEIN WAY & SON'S UPRIGHT
ITTT "PIANOS. It will bo welcome news to the musi
cal pnblio that Steinways have succeeded, by the niost
pignut ic improreinonts, in raising the Upright Piano Ironi
ita well-known state of imperfection tothutof the most
perfect amongst the differont shapes of pianos. The
upright Piano of Kteinway & Sous now is mors durable,
keeps better in tune and in order, haa more power, a
purer and more musical tone, and a hotter touch than the
square piano, and rivals in most of these points even the
Grand Piano. Its advantages are so plain and striking
that the most prejudiced against this shape of a piano are
converted liy examining them; and out of twenty who
want to buy a bqunre Piano, nineteen prefer now already
an Upright one of S. & 8. Purchasers will do well to
examine them, at the wareroom of
