TIIH SCIIOEPPE MURDER TRIAL. Yf publiHh in another portion of to-day's TeIiBOBiph tho report mala ly Attonior Genernl Brewster to "his Excellency Major Qeneral John W. Geury" (which in, by-the-wsy, a Hingnlar title for the Governor of rennsylTfinift), in reference to the famous Schoeppe murder trial. It will be soon that, notwithstanding the extraordinary exortions made to create a pretext for the pardon of the . prisoner, his friends have not, in the judg ment of the Attorney-General, shown imftl cient cause for the exerciso of Executive clomenoy, and the death-warrant of Dr. Taul Sohoeppe has therefore been Higne1, the 2i'd of Deoembor being the day fixed for his execu tion. . Those who have dispassionately read tho testimony and the proceedings of the trial will have little cause to complain of this de cision. Two powerful influences were nr rayod in behalf of the prisoner, and if the proofs of his guilt had not boon vory strong, they could have scarcely failed to resoue him from his impending fato. It was natural and honorable for the German societies to exert themselves in his behalf. The feeling which prompted them to spare no pains to secure impartial justice to a fellow-countrymen who Complained that ho was the victim of local prejudice was creditable, but now, havin discharged their full duty, they should neither be surprised nor offended by the resolution to let the law take its course. It would be as absurd to seriously contend that Dr. Taul Schoeppe is to be hung because ho is a German, as to allege that the character of the hundreds of thousands of industrious, intel ligent, and patriotic German citizens of this Commonwealth is impugned in the slightest degree, by the fact that a man born in Ger many has been found guilty of murder. Dr. Sohoeppe was zealously defended during the trial in Carlisle by very able counsel. II is case was reargued before the Supreme Court. The Governor has Bince given a patient hear ing to all that could bo urged in his behalf, after the best legal and medical talent had been employed for months in devising pleas for a pardon. Rarely or never before have Bfich strenuous and continuous exertions Leon made in this State on behalf of a convicted crimincl, and their failure can only be attri buted to the fact that it was beyond .the power of human ingenuity to explain away the damning evidences of guilt. The medical influences invoked were, in themselves, a power of no small magnitude. The impression seems to have been generated that the main question at issue was a scien tific one about which the doctors, as usual, disagreed, and that tho safety of all physi cians was endangored by a conviction, on in sufficient evidence, of murdering by a pre scription. Very dolicate points were thus raised, and we can scarcely wondor at the zeal displayed by Home of the learned members of this honorable profession in behalf of one of their professional brethren. But the business of the jury, tho court and the Governor was to decide whether Dr. Paul Schoeppe was, beyond all reasonable doubt, guilty of the murder of Miss Maria Stennocke, and not to decide whether the best tests for poison were or were not made by tho chemist who analyzed the contents of the stomach of the dead woman. An unusually strong 2)riiit'i faci case was made out. It was shown that Dr. Schoeppe had himself purchased prussic acid, one of the most deadly of poisons, on two oocasions, a short time previous to the death of his victim. His peculiar relations with the deceased furnished at once extraor dinary motives and unusual facilities for the perpetration of his crime. There was direct (but not uncontradicted) testimony that the kind of pouton he is known to have purchased caused her death, and if it was used, as is supposed by one of the medical witnesses, in conjunction with morphine, one of the mo tives of the alleged murderer was probably to conceal the traces of his guilt by creating the scientific puzzle or dispute which has added such a peculiar complication to this case. The most essential medical question, after all, was whether Miss Stenneoke died a natural death, and the array of testimony on this point, on the part of the Commonwealth, was sufficient to satisfy any impartial jury that Bhe had been overdosed with noxious medi cines or poisons. If Paul Schoeppe is indeed guilty, as all tho testimony seems to indicate, his guilt is of an especially infamous character. To play the part of a lover to an old woman, and after perfecting arrangements to secure her estate, to abuse tho double confidence en joyed by him as a suitor and a physician, by administering a deadly poison, betrays the most execrable and desperate villainy. It involves a degree of cruel treachery soarcely . equalled by "Maobeth's" murder of his sleep, ing guest; and if we are to retain the system of capital punishment, surely such men should not be suffered to escape the gallows. TEACHERS SALARIES. Oub common Bchools, if not as perfeot in all respects as they might be, are a credit to the city; the system of instruction is good, and the benefits which the schools confer upon the community can scarcely be overestimated. Every citizen is interested in having them maintained at the highest state of efficiency, and the very small cost por school at which they are maintained demands that, while due economy shall be observed, their usoful . liens shall not be diminished by a niggardly policy in the expenditnros. The salaries given, to the subordinate teachers esp&oiaily, at the present time are nitnply disgraceful. In the grammar schools tho assistants now receive from !(4(8 to $"10 per annum, apon which they are expected to live decently and to dress like ladies and gentlemen. Many of the lowest grade of day laborers receive higher wnges than this, and an ordinary hired girl who gets from two to throo dollars pr week and her board and lodging is vastly better off in a pecuniary point of view than the educated ladies who fill the arduous and responsible positions of teachers in our publio schools. It speaks well for the eiprtt ile corp of the teachorri, and thoir apprecia tion of tho importance of thoir work, that they really do perrorm their duties in an eminently satisfactory manner for tho miser able pittance allowed them. The city is cortuinly doeply in debt, and thero is a necessity for rigid economy in all quarters, but tho city, no matter how groat its pecuniary embarrassments may bo, cannot afford to pay tho teachers in the public schools less than living salaries, and the action of the Board of Control in giving to tho toaohors an increase of twenty-five per cent, over tho present rates ought to be sanctioned by Councils without any opposition. This ad vance ought, at least, to be allowod to the subordinate teachers, as even then the amount paid them will bo far less than their work is worth. If tho increaso is given, tho first assistant in the Boys' Gram ninr School will only receive $700 per annum, and tho lowest assistant only $."0(). In tho secondary schools the principal will recoive $800, and in tho primary, $(H)0. Tho lowost assistants in tho secondary schools will re ceive $180, and in the primary, $t.r.(). These amounts are still disgracefully small, but they will afford some relief, and in giving them the city will be doing at loast a partial act of justice. The school-teachers work hard for the little they do receive, and one reason why thoy aro not hotter paid is bocauso the men who have the appropriating of tho money aro most of them totally unable to understand the mental and physical strain to which thoy are sub jected. Teaching is one of the most labori ous occupations that a man or woman can undertake, and with vory few exceptions it is one of the worst paid. The toachors in our public schools do not ask exorbitant sala ries, and a mere inspection of tho figures will convince any unprejudiced person of the justice of their present demands. We hope sincoroly that Councils, at their next meeting, will sanction the action of the Board of Con trol with reference to this matter. AN INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION. Washington appears determined upon in dulging in an International Exhibition in tho year of grace 1871, and it is said that $1,200,000 have been subscribed towards do fraying the expenses of thislittlo vanity. But suppose that Washington does got up an In ternational Exhibition. Every winter its capa city for storing away human boings is tested to the utmost by the mere attractions of tho session of Congress. What undor the sun would Washington do with the hundreds of thousands of people who flooked to Paris on the occasion of the rocent International Ex position ? Tho attempt to rival tho great ex hibition of Taris by a city which cannot pro vide comfortable quarters for the ordinary run of visitors cannot but prove a failure. There is but one city in tho Union which contains all the requisites for the success of such a scheme, and that city is Philadelphia. In extent of territory, superior accommoda tions for an unusual increase of the floating population, cenlrality of location with re spect to the bulk of our population, aud con tiguity to the seaboard for the convenience of visitors from abroad, Philadelphia possesses unrivalled facilities for making a success of the enterprise which cannot but prove a com parative failure at tho national capital. We have already hoard some talk about the inau guration of a movement for holding a groat International Exhibition in this city in 1870, the year which will witness the one hundredth anniversary of the signing in Indopendonca llall of the document which created our na tionality. A more appropriate timo could not be selected, and it is not too early to enter tain the project in a serious manner. LIVELY TIMES IN TENNESSEE. A chabactebistio scene has just been enacted in Tennessee. A few days ago, when a planter's house was assailed by maskod men, under the pretense that they came to disarm the negroes working for him, a smart skir mish ensued, one of the assailants being killed and two mortally wounded. Instead of arresting or attempting to arrest the despera does who make this wanton and unprovoked assault, the sheriff arrested the planter and six of his negro laborers, and while the latter were being taken to jail five of them were shot down in cold blood by some badly recon structed Rebels. It is said that tho exoite ment in the neighborhood is great, and that more bloodshed is expected. Here is a case which needs probing to the bottom. If Governor Senter is true to the pledges given by him before his election, he will spare no effort to bring the guilty par ties to a punishment commensurate with the enormity of their guilt. And if the Stata authorities are unable or unwilling to see that justice is done, it is tho plain duty of the Federal Government to interpose. It is about time for such disgraceful proceedings to be ended. Tennessee is reconstructed, after a fashion, but not sufficiently so to war rant her people in indulging in such whole sale butcheries. The welfare of the whole country demands an enforcement of the right of the negro to live and work for whom he pleases, and so long as be does not use his weapons save whon assailed without provoca tion by bloodthirsty Rebels, he has as good a right to arm himself as has his unrelenting persecutor, the bubhwhacker of war times and tho Ku-EJux of tho presont day. LtMon Law is sometimes a wholesom . thing for a frontier country, infested by the most desperate oharaotors that draw the breath of life. But when a mob of sturdy and honost backwoodsmen take the trouble to lynch a desperado for the murder of a party by tho name of Johnson, as was done a few days ago, in Fremont county, Iowa, and the party by the name of Johnson turns up alive immediately afterwards, it booomes a very pertinent question as to what should bo done with the lynchers. Tint Woman Riufttkrh are now in full blast at Cloveland, and the object of tho conven tion which they are taking the trouble to hold there, is nothing less than tho forcing of female suffrage upon tho country. While the old ladies aro for once all togothor, wo would BUggest that they entertain a project for promulgating their doctrines among the people of tho moon and some of the more important planets and moht aocossiblo fixed stars. List Uh Havk Peach! The Spanish flotilla of gunboats, in process of construction at New York, has been soiaod at last, and now wo may anticipalo a daily budget of loud talk from Matbrid, unless all three of the Atlantio cables shor.ld break down undor tho burden of braggadocio. OI11 VUAKY. Don PoiiiIdko Mulcts General Dulco, th lato Captatu-General of Cubs, according to a cable de gpatth, died on Tuesday tu Madrid, at the site of slxty-ouo years. Dou DomluRO Dulco y Uarar, Marquis do Castel florlte, was burn in tbo city of 8U-s, Spain, in tho your 1 son. Descended l rem one of the old and titled MpanlBli families, at un ejrljr ago lie adopted the profi'HKlon of arms, and took an active part against the Curl Is la In the Spanish civil wars. When, In 1342, General Diego Leon attacked tha Queen's palace In order to get posstsalouof her person and destroy Kspartero's puvrcr, uulee was a captain, and commanded the palace garrlBon. General Leon ha l with him one thousand men. and Dutee, who was surprised on the stairs of the bulldl ig, made a bril liant defense with bat forty. eight men, and gaved the Queen from her UHSullauts This whb the begin ning of his fortunes, and the Oceanian of hU entrance upon a wider sphere. As a return lor his courageous defenboof the palace, he was made a Goutlotntu of the Bedchamber, and was promoted bo rapidly that in Ave years ho became a brigadier-general of cavalry. Continuing to dbllngulMh himself and at tract the at-ten Ion ef the puiili'', ne was given the poHltiun of commandant or the provinces of Savlllo and Surngosoa, and In 1SI9 was made a fluid marshal. In ISM, while in command of the cavalry at Madrid, he placed himself at the head of his force, and joining Marshal OTonnoll, tho recognl.ed leader of the Union liberal party, brought tho Vlcal varo Insurrection to a successful Issue. Ho subse quently held the post of Captain-Cleueral of the pro vince of Catalonia, and received tho appointment of a Senator of the realm. In 18G3 ho was for the Hrst timo appointed Captain-General of the Island of Cuba, a position in which he continued utitil tho summer of 1SGC. Ilia administration was character ized by a persecution or the slave-traders, the inau guration of many reforms, and tho formation of a formidable reform parly In the island. This course gained him great popularity with tho native Cubans, but centred upon him tho animosity and hatred of the Spanish residents. Previous to his return to Spain, he visited tho United States In June, 1800, re ceiving a princely welcome in New York city. Early lu 1SUT, General Dulce returned to Cuba, and there married a lady of wealth aud high position, tho Count chs S.mtovenU. Ha then returned to Spain with his brido, and when, in the summer of iscs, tho lirst symptoms ol the discontent which re sulted lu the overthrow of tho liourbon dynasty were munlfested, entered into the revolutionary agi tation. In company with Marshal Serrano, the pre sent Regent, and other prominent leaders, he was arrested by the Government and exiled to TcnerliTe. When everything was ripe for the final blow at tho power of Isabella, Uulee and his companions (left their place or exile and joined heartily In the great revolutionary movement which drovo the Quoea from tho throne and country. About tbo first of tho present year, Gcnoral Dulce was rewarded by tbo provisional government with a reappointment to tho Captain-Generalship of Cuba, which position he bold scarcely six months, being succeeded In June last by Do Itodas, the present Captain-General. As soon as ho arrived in the Island, ho attempted to inaugurate a pulley of con ciliation, hoping thus to quiet the discontent which bad'culminatcd, a few months before, In tho present Insurrection. His promises at the outset were very fair, and it Is quite possible that, If he had been In command of the island at the time or the uprising In the mother country, he would have been able to pro serve the Spanish dominion Intact. But his former popularity with tho native Cubans, and bis marriage relations, caused him to bo looked upon with suspi cion by the Spanish residents, with whom he soon came into such disrepute that during tho latter part of his administration lie was accused of being In league with the rebels, and openly defied and in sulted by the Havana volunteers. Having been for years past in feeble health, he was unable to bear Up under all the complications and difficulties or his position, and when, on the 2d or Juno last, a com mission or the volunteers entered tho palace and demanded his surrender, they round him not very reluctant to acquiesce in their demands. In a short time he announcod his resignation, and on June 6 sailed for Spain, without awaiting the arrival or his successor. He had been suil'erlng severely with a cancer, and it is probable that this complaint was the cause or his death. SPECIAL. NOTJICES. fur additional Sjtrcitil Notieet the jHtUle nufet.
