ALBERT D. RICHARDSON'S EULOGISTS. From tht N. V. World. If bucIi friends of llichnrdnon fts Vico rreftident Colfax and tho Key. Henry Ward Beechor Lad nol affronted the public nonne of decency ly ostentations sympathy for a ho duoer and justification of bin conduct, the press would have no other duty in connec tion with thin tragedy than is laid upon it in tho similar cases which aro of such frequent oocurronco. llichardson was no such novice as not to know that a man who seduces a wife from her allegiance carrios his life in his hand, and may expect to forfoit it to the vengeance of the eutraged husband. He dared the conse quences, and they came. He doubtless thought the prize worth the risk and the for feit; and we will do him the justice to say that, so far as the public is informed, he mot Lis fate without any unmanly quailing, or any protest against its righteousness. The aveng ing Nemesis, which is ever on the path of such transgressors, upeedily overtook him; and if his eulogists had not attomptod to blunt and pervert the moral sonso of the commu nity, it would bo Bafe, as well as charitable, to dismiss him to his reward without any re marks. But when the most popular and eloquent divine in the country, and the second func tionary in the Government, undertake to 'blazon evil deeds and consecrate a crime," their attompt to lower tho moral tone of the community cannot pass without rebuke. Whatever lenity might be practised towards the infatuated parties to this tragedy in con sideration of their terrible punishment, is swallowed up in a feeling of indignation and disgust against those who have prostituted their influence and talents in dofense of an intercourse which the moral sentiment of the community condemns. Mr. Beeoher cannot escape by turning upon tho public, as he did in his f unoral re marks and denouncing, in a strain of coarso vituperation, those who regard the marriage tie as sacred. "The lion in his strength," said he, meaning llichardson, "and in his Own fastness, is able to defend himself; but no sooner has tho arrow of the huntsman laid him low than he is sot upon by every vile thing, every fly, every crawling worm. Now that he is down fresh flies are all around about him, and death, that is to most men a truce to old enemies, is the very arraying of the battle against him." It is not against the fiend soducor, but against iou, Mr. Beecher, and such as you, that the public indignation is lot loose on this truly mournful occasion. Had you, and such as you, been con tent to cast a silent mantle of charity over the erring, and withhold the public eulogies by which you have shocked tho sensibilities of right-thinking people, there would have boon no oocasron for you to at and defiantly on the defensive, and interpose the perforated corpso of your dead "lion" as a shield bo twoea you and the public censure. It is against you aud such as you that tho scorch ing breath of incensed virtue is directed; you, who, without the apology of temptation, free from the passions which blinded those illicit lovers, ooolly insult a Christian community Ly fulsome and indecent praises of their guilty connection. But for you, and such as you, this terrible caso would have operated as an impressive warning; by your eulogies and your marriage ceremony you hold it up as an example. The Indiana divorce was a fraul and a ulinm. You mnrried the Diirties knowing it to be a more Indiana divorce, procured on en parte representations, without notice to the offended husband, in a place distant from the real residence of the parties. You know, Mr. Boochor, and everybody knows, that Mrs. McFarland would not have dared to apply for a divorce here in the State of New York, where the parties resided and the facts would have been investigated. In the eye of onr laws, and by the rules of our courts, the mar riage with McFarland has never been dis solved; and your performance of the marriage ceremony made you not only a justifier of seduction but an abetter of bigamy. In the light of the sworn testimony taken in McFarland's application for the custody of uis children, this is as clear a case of seduc tion as was ever proved by evidence. The landlady of the house in Amity street swears that Mrs. McFarland applied to her for a room for llichardson, and that he came there in consequence of an arrangement which she Lad made for him. The room adjoined hers, and the inmates of the house testify that she was frequently in it in the absence of her hus band. All this might be innocent enough if it were not for the Tight thrown back upon it ly the subsequent developments. She after wards abandons her husband and puts her self under Richardson's protection. When ha is wounded she goes to Mr. Sinclair's house and takes care of him, passes whole days and whole nights alone with him, bestowing the most endearing caresses upon him, and per mitting it to be understood in Mr. Sinclair's family, and by other acquaintances, that she and lliohardson were under an engagement of marriage. It is impossible to resist the conclusion that she forsook her husband in the expectation of marrying llichardson; that be had knowingly excited that expectation, and Lad thereby alienated her from her hus band; and that the Indiana divorce procured probably by the friendly intervention and as sistance of Mr. Colfax was the consumma tion of a purpose which had been formed while the parties were occupying adjoining rooms in Amity street. And upon conduct such as this Mr. Beecher bestows bis blessing and benediction ! With this history before the public in the shape of Sworn testimony, ho had the effrontery to Stand op beside Richardson's corpse, and de clare that "both Le, ind she who is left to mourn Lis absence, Lave always lived in a prudential manner!" TIIE VALUE OF THE CHINAMAN. From the S. T. Timet. However difficult it has been for tho repre sentative of any power to open negotiations with the Emperor of China, upon a' direct and personal baBis, there can be no doubt that the United States have been accorded the preference in this respect. Mr. Burlin game's mission is the first even quasi diplo matic recognition of that nature ever mado by the Ohinese Court. Being thus favorably situated towards the vast empire from which great benefits in the way of commerce are ex pected, it becomes of great importance that nothing oocur by which the progress of our acquaintance with the Chinese people and Government may be delayed or its influence weakened. The treatment which Chinese emigrants are to receive Imars directly, upon this subject. If they are enoouraged, they should also be protected. They are a quiet, inoffensive race, and peculiarly liable to op prossipn at the hands of those who look upon them as intruding rivals. . Their labor is already of groat vulue iu some sections, and lough for the I ake them feal I interests which it servos to make them feel thnt they aro among friends. The most systematic arrangements for bringing over the Chinese laborers have been made in California, and with striking results. The "six companies" of San Franoisoo under take not only tho control of the immigration, but the caro of the Chinese on thoir arrival. They have their offices in China, whioh are directly under tho control of tho Chinese government. By this agency the passage is provided, records of every man, woman, and child are kept, and remittances from the im migrants to their friends at home aggre gating from $20,000 to $100,000 by each steamer are forwarded. And, what is of great consequonce, thoir national feelings aro carefully respected by the collection and transmission home of the bones of Chinamen dying in California, it being regarded by the Chinese a great calamity if their remains are finally deposited in foreign soil. Altogether, i:8,rf; Chinese have roached California. Those are thus aocounted for by the companies: lleturncd, 57,i!2;i; dead, 40,420; remaining in the State, 41,000, aad the rest Lave gone into other States. There are besides over 90,000 still on tho coast. The 41,000 are variously occupied, 31,700 being active adult males, the balance consist ing of women, children, and old poople. Tho returns show a decrease from those of 1848 of 3i:i. The great difficulty in the way of those people is the prejudice existing against thorn among the white laboring classes. But it is an unjust and short-sighted feeling, if the general prosperity of the localities in which they are domicilod be worth consideration. Their labor is cheap, but it is of a kind which is, for the most part, repugnant to many white men from its laborious character. They undertake tasks which are unremunera tive to any but those whose wants are few and simple. The prices of fruits, vegetables, meats, butter, coarse clothing, cigars, and many other commodities aro rendered cheaper to the general community of San Francisco in particular by thoir means. There are, it is stated, many branches of manufacture which could not be carried on without their aid. Tho complaint is justly made that they are "mixed up with polities" that is, that poli ticians make opposition to them a ground for claiming political support. This is much to be regretted, and the evil may increase. But it should be borne in mind that they assist in developing the national resources. Thoir services in building the Central Pacific llail road alone are an evidence of what import ance may be attached to them in the future, and should entitle them to kindness and con sideration. JEFFEIISON D ' ' From the Wheelinu Intetlfytnrcr. Jeff. Davis, as everybody knows, has re turned to the UnHW! States, and has for tho present taken up his residence in Memphis. Some demonstrations of reRpect for his char acter were made on his arrival in that city, and some of commiseration over his blighted hopes and his reversed prospects in life. The sensation produced by his arrival, however, scarcely survived the day on which he came, and the chief of the Rebellion, the foremost of tho men who denounced their country as unfit for people of spirit to live in, finds himself once move on his native soil, a sadder and perhaps a wiser man for all that he has done and suffered both at homo aud abroad. There is a point beyond which no applause or adulation will sustain man. One soon wearies of the mere Sympathy of others, and a high-minded man is seldom willing to accept it at all. We cannot be surprised, however, that the chief of the late llebellion finds sumo solace in tho sympathies of the Southern people. They kindlod together tho torches of the civil war. They endured together its unequalled privations, and they have shared togother the bitter memories of its lost cause. A common brooding over the past is all they have left to bind them to each other. But an occupation like this, as is said, "butters no man's bread," and Jeff. Davis will not be long in discover ing, what the Southern poople have generally found out already, that politics will not yield him a support, and that he must take his place among the working millions whom he has all his life disparaged and despised. llie generals who led the Ilebel armies have fallen, in considerable proportion, into agencies of express companies, or become superintendents of railroads, in the South, and they have shown their good sense in re sorting to such occupations for a livelihood. Here and there they are at the head or in some other office of institutions of education, and are teaching to the young the sciences which they acquired at West Point long before the war. We wait to see what particular place in Southern life has been reserved for the man who so long held Southern destinies in Lis hand. Is he to be the president of a college, or the agent of an insurance com pany, the treasurer of a railroad, or the head of a railroad, or the head of a military insti tute? The indulgence of the American people towards tho Confederate President has been the greatest punishment he could have received. Had he been executed for treason he would have ranked among the heroes of history; his fate, have if not his achieve ments, would Lave secured Lim a fame forever. No such distinction can now ever belong to Lim. He can never be any thing in the estimation of mankind but the leader of an unsuccessful rebellion, and the last champion of American slavery. The lost cause, with which Le is identified, is tho cause of human oppression and ' wrong, as well as treason and rebellion. His very life, even, is a punishment. He is indebted for it to the Government Le attempted to over throw, and he is to spend it among the nuns of the slavery ho sought to perpetuate, and in the midst of the people whose interests ho has helped to blight, and whose hopes he has aided in ruining! In sparing his life, and permitting him to return from exile, the Government annihilated his only hold upon the interest of tho world, and took away his last chance of being ranked among either heroes or martyrs. A SOUTHERN VIEW OF NEGRO SUF FRAGE. From the 3IenjhiH Avulanclte. Negro suff rage is a fixed, irrevocable fact. For over two years the Democratic party has recognized this fact. Our party platforms, and our leaders, in thoir speeches and resolu tions, are pledged not to disturb the negro in Lis possession of the eleeti tre franchise. We Lave sought to make the most of it in con formity to party tactics and party interest. We have favored negro suffrage because the white people of Tennessoe outvote the negro by fifty thousand, and because the colored vote in our State is, therefore, powerless for harm. We favor negro suffrage because the radical majority is likoly to romain in power for years, Hud is determined to force it upon the country, and it is the policy of the pooplo to put themselves in a position to control on evil tboy cannot eradioate. We favor tnat value snouid be motive en nogro fluff raga because the', people of -Tennessee are determined to accept it, and nothing can be gained by a war of races in Shelby county. We favor universal suffrage because the poople are wary of strife and this eternal controversy about the negro, and will never witness a restoration of peane ami prosperity until all citizens are' enfranchised.' We favor negro Suffrage beoauso it will quiet the negro, give him conlldence in his old master, and tench him that his own com fort and poaco aro interwovoii with those of tho white race. We favor it because we regard it as the best means of restoring law and order' in Tennessee; but however much we believe negro suffrage is fixed and unchange able in Tennesse, as it is in all our sister States of Virginia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas, and Texas, we have no objection to our people voting separately and distinctly upon the question. If a majority of tho people of Tennessoe are opposed to negro suffrage, let that majority be re speoted. If a majority of the voters of Tennessee are in favor of negro suffrage, the enemies of universal suffrage are bound to submit; then, why all this clamor? The approaching canvass in this county for dele gates to the convention promises to be bittor. We wish to ovoid a contest so unnecessary, if possible. It can be avoided, and with this view we propose that the delegates to the convention from this county bo instructed to vote for the insertion of a clause in the Con stitution giving every male citizon of the State the right to vote, with the further in struction that our delegates vote to submit this clause of the Constitution to a soparate and distinct vote. If the people ratify such a clauso let it remain. If they should vote against it let it be struck out. If the enemies of negro suffrage believe the peoplo are opposed to it, they are surely willing to risk the question to a vote of the peoplo. We would not have negro suffrage forced upon the people, oven until the fif teenth amendment forces it upon thorn, if we really believed a malority opposed it. Lot the question be submitted to the poople di rectly. We will support any man nomi nated by the convention who moy be willing to trust tho people on a direct vote, and who will give them an opportunity in the way sug gested. Tho proposition to submit tho negro suffrage question as a separate clause to the Constitution ought to be satisfactory. Such a course would not jeopardize the ratifi cation of the whole instrument. There is no use of discussing this question now, when it can be submitted to a direct vote and decided by the people themselves. WATCHES, JEWELRY, ETO.
