THE ELECTION IN WASHINGTON.
The exciting contest for the Mayoralty of
Washington city resulted yesterday in the
election of Emery, reform Republican, over
I3owen, the regular Republican nominee, by
about three thousand majority, and the
political control of the national capital is thus
lost by the Republican organization. While
this defeat is caused primarly by dissensions
in the Republican party, there is little doubt
that these dissensions are due, in a large mea
sure, to the general belief of the citizens of
Washington that Bowen, the regular nominee,
is a fair representative of the insatiable race of
cormorants who are rapidly dragging the lte
publican party to destruction. He is distin
guished mainly by his inordinate thirst of
office (two or three lucrative positions being
usually necessary to gratify his ravenous am
bition), and by his proclivity to run the city
government in his individual interest. No
party which habitually panders to such
Bwinish schemers can hope for permanent
success, and the Republican organization
in Pennsylvania, in Philadelphia, and in all
other portions of the Union should heed the
lesson taught at Washington yesterday if it
wishes to escape a crushing defeat. Managers
of partisan conventions should remember
that old issues are well-nigh dead and buried,
and that they can no longer foist rapacious
rascals into posts of honor and profit on the
strength of their alleged Republicanism.
The result in Washington confirms the lesson
taught by the late election in New York, that
the rank and file of the Republican party can
no longer be uniformly rallied in
support of every ticket that may bo
presented, and that the overpower
ing dread of Democratio sway which
formerly animated its legions has perished
with the causes that produced it. The leaders
of the Democracy, chastened by innumerable
defeats, are at last learning to keep their
odious heresies in the background, and there
can be but one result to a square right on the
question whether Republican corruptionists
and imbeciles are to be kept in office. No
transparent professions of loyalty can per
manently screen knavery, rapacity, and offi
cial mismanagement from a terrific popular
rebuke. Candidates will hereafterbe judged
Ly their character and capacity rather than
their professions of principle; and if nomi
nating conventions do not exercise a nice dis
crimination, Republican voters will discharge
this duty at the polls.
TUB STATE CENTRAL COMMITTEE
AND THE CAMPAIGN OF 1870.
All the signs of the times point to a very
lively contest next fall in the election for
members of Congress and of the State Legis
lature. Owing to the utter failure of the
present Congress to appreciate the require
ments of the people in favor of financial re
forms, in the abolition of the inoome tax, the
lessening of taxation, the funding of the
debt, and other matters of this nature
demanding immediate consideration,
there will 1 o doubtless many changes
made by the nominating conventions. The
Republicans of this State are in a large majo
rity, but there is so much disgust manifested
at the do-nothing policy of Congress that our
friends must be up and doing if they want to
keep down the rising strength of the free
traders at Washington. It is a notorious fact
that the Free Trade League is buying a con
trolling interest in the stock of all the news
papers it can reach, and in the Northwest
particularly they are making great progress.
Here In Pennsylvania, the stronghold of pro
tection, we must present an unbroken front
and carry the State by a large majority.
This is necessary for the morale of the party
after the recent New York election. What
we want is a thorough organization of tho
political elements of the State, and a Uoe cam
paign. Last year the State Committee did little
or nothing till September. That is entirely
too late. We had no State Convention this
spring, and therefore the conduct of the cam
paign will fall to the State Central Committee
elected by the Philadelphia Convention of
18(51). This body should be got together at
Once and inaugurate a vigorous war upon the
enemy. Let Mr. Covode, then, call his com
mittee together without delay. If the cam
paign is conducted by districts there will be
no concert of action. There must be a State
canvass, and a thorough one. There id Home
talk of a sort of national campaign being
conducted under the leadership of a commit
tee of Congress. The members of that body
Will have enough to do to take care of them
selves, and they have nothing whatever to do
with conducting the canvas? in this State.
That duty belongs to the State Central Com
mittee. FREE DIVORCE. '
IH a recent speech Mrs. Stanton, who is
one of the ablest of the shrieking sisterhood,
alleged that in Connecticut there was one
application for divorce to every four for nur
xiage, and that sixteen thousand divoroei
were granted in Massachusetts last yeir.
Even the Indiana Legislature cannot carry
the principle of free divorce to a much
greater extent than this, and if the statistics
from the land of 6teady habits and the old
Day State furnish a fair criterion for other
portions of the country, matrimony is rapidly
becoming a mere temporary institution, liable
to be dissolved at the pleasure of either party,
With or without good reasons. Even in Phila
delphia, which is prone to conservatism, a
large number of separations, abandonments,
and divorcos occur every year in nil circles
of society, and proceedings connected with
divorce suits form a large portion of the
business 'of the legal profession. The idea
that men and women when thoy are married
at all are married for life, is practically re
garded by the fast people of this progressive
sge as a piece of old-fogyisra, and the ease
with which matrimonial contracts can be
broken is in turn acting as an incentive to
hasty and inconsiderate matches, which cre
ate a new crop of divorce suits.
In the midst of this tendency some of the
agitators for woman's rights desire that now
facilities for dissolving matrimonial ties shall
be granted. They ask that the laws Bhall be
so remodelled that serious misconduct of
any description shall be deemed a sufficient
cause for divorce; and if success crowns their
efforts, the vows uttered at the altar will hold
good only until a serious change comes over
the die.imv of ardent lovers. This new sys
tem may suit women who court notoriety and
desiro to display themselves on the rostrum
admirably, but its genernl establishment
would bo one of tho greatest misfortunes that
could befall their more modest and amiable
sisters. One of their very greatest necessi
ties is the establishment of the sanctity, per
manency, and inviolability of tho marriage
relation, and everything in law or custom
that weakens this bond helps to heap
misery upon their heads and to demo
ralize society. The Mormons gravely
contend that polygamy is the true remedy for
many of the evils of tho day; but monstrous
as their proposition is, it is not worse than
the theory that marriage should be oonvcrtod
into such a transient and limited partnership
that a trilling quarrel could destroy it. Anglo
Saxon civilization is founded upon attach
ment of tho race to their individual homes,
and nothing will destroy it more speedily
than the general adoption of tho idea that
permanent homes or permanent family or
ganizations are to be regarded as relics of
antiquity. In some cases, for obvious
reasons, divorces should be granted; but
the worst enemy of this nation cannot
devise a better method to ensure its
downfall than a universal application
of the advanced free-divorce doctrines.
They would carry us back to barbaric im
morality nnd consequent destruction by the
shortest and quickest route.
HIGH JINKS ON THE ROLLING
DEEP.
Such of our readers as perused the extracts
published by us yesterday from the letter of
the Gubernatorial Geary to Vice-Admiral
rorter must have been impressed with the
patent fact that his Excellency is a man of
high-sounding sentiments and muddled meta
phors. But the hero of fifty-odd battles and
Governor of three or more States contrives
to wade through a sea of words without once
exalting himself by reason of the stormy
scenes which have so signally marked his own
dazzling career. When we bear iu mind the
fact that nothing would be more natural than
some reference to this career by one so inge
nuous as our Governor, we can appreciate
fully the rare degree of modesty which eaueed
him to abstain. That a man with a thousand
bullet-holes in his legs should dilate upon
"that country which every true American
proudly calls his own," show up the "cun
ningly devised professions" of its in
sidious foes, propound its mission and
fortell its destiny, eulogize the minds and
hearts that laid treason in the dust, and
finally take it upon himself to tender to a
man with an illustrious sire and a noble
heritage the thanks of the nation, without
once insinuating tho existence ot the perforated
calves which testified to his own countless
deeds of valor upon the gory plain of battle,
is, indeed, almost incomprehensible, almost
incredible. But Geary's epistle to the an
cient mariner with the illustrious sire and
noble heritage has proved that such modesty
is both possible and actual.
In truth, the reckless fashion in which the
Vice-Admiral has alternated the pursuits of
peace with deeds of high emprise appears to
have impressed his Excellency with the neces
sity for following his example and, although
his succohs in so doing has been
complete, we. can well imagine
that the unseasonable breezes of this unsea
sonable month are attuned to a melancholy
air as they romp and riot through the multi
tudinous orifices of those perforated calves,
while the doughty and felf-deuying hero com
placently contemplates his task. Said the
ancitnt mariner with an "illustrious sire" and
"noblo heritage," in addressing and compli
menting the Hon. Mr. Negley: "Our people
only want the chance to be even with Eng
land once more, uiul will be willing to lose a
little to catch up." The unseasonable breezes
echo the patriotic sentiment, as they whistle
through the cavities between the Gubernato
rial tibia and fibula, and rattle around the
shattered Gubernatorial femur; his Excellenoy
gives a wince, nnd resolves to bo even with the
mariner, even though he should lose a great
deal in catching up. If a Vice-Admiral
who, "in the trial of battles wagod"
for the country's safety, has contrived
to render still more illustrious tho name and
heritage bequeathed to him by his sire, can
wave aside the nuoke of the conflict and
deaden the roar of great sea guns by thrust
ing his thumbs into his ears, and then dis
course rtpoa tho decline of commerce as
calmly as the greatest landlubber in the halls
of Congrtsp, why should not Geary do the
same ? If Porter can cram "a noble heritage
of naval renown" into his tarpaulin, and talk
about being even with England after the high
old Roman fashion of turning the weapons of
one's adversary upon himself, why should not
the hero of some fifty land-fights emulate his
forbearing example, even if his legs have
been riddled until nothing is left of them but
shreds of muscle and scraps of bone ?
But it is not until we come to the very tail
end of Lis Excellency's epistle that we dis
cern the moving motive whiuh led to its
perpetration. "I hope," says Geary to Por
ter, "to see your directing ability at the head
of that department of government of which,
as an officer, you have been so distinguished
for gallant services !" And is this your little
game, Governor? Tho Vice-Admiral
is now gazetted as on "special duty"
at the Navy Department; but
that is not enough, and not until this scion
of an "illustrious sire" is duly installed at the
head of the department, will Geary be con
tent. And then, of course, he will strive
to be even with him again, even if it should
be noccssary "to lose a little in catching up."
With Torter as Secrotary of tho Navy, and
Geary as Secretary o War, the roconstmcrod
Cabinet will be satisfactory to at least one
American who proudly calls his country his
own; and when this consummation is
achieved, who will venture to define its mis
sion or predict its destiny ?
Tub Emtikb of IIkazil embraces an Immense
territory. It contains within it borders 3.00M60
square miles, being CS.294 square miles larger than
the United 8tatcs;but much of it Is a bonndlcM
forest and win never be Inhabited. Still It posneiisos
great advantages as an agricultural country to those
who have moderate means, Rood health, and habits
of Industry. Tho Urazilians are Jealous f foreigners
as a nation, but not as Individuals. The Argentine
Republic Is making much greater progress In im
provements than ISrazil, from the fact that everything
Is done in the Argentine Hcpnbllo to foster aud en
courage foreigners, while the reverse is the case In
Brazil. The production of diamonds and their ex
port from the country arc comparatively largo. The
mines are regularly and systematically worked, anil
diamonds are much cheaper there than In the United
States or Europe. The amouut exported In 19(59
from ltlo, that paid export duty, In value was
11,705,937, being 96,232 carats; but, of course, duty is
paid only on a small portion of the diamonds tht
leave the country, as they are so easily concealed
that the custom house officers cannot reach them.
The amount exported from Balila Is said to be equal
to the amount from Rio. Tnere are over 6joo
laborers engaged in the diamond mines of I5ra7.ll.
Those tributary to Rio Janeiro are at Minas, about
400 miles distant. The exports received by the Gov
ernment from other articles sent from Brazil for the
year 1869 amounted to $3,17C,375, and the amouut re
ceived from Imports for the year 1S68 was 110,837,500.
This is from Kio Janeiro. One-tenth of all real
estate sold In the province of Kio goes to the Gov
ernment, but no taxes are paid on real estate In
Brazil. The revenue Is raised by export and import
duties by licenses and stamps which are some
what onerous, but cannot be reduced, for the Gov
ernment is heavily In debt, and every means of tax
ation must be resorted to In keeping up the revenuo
equal to Its demands by the Government
Asparagus in Season. a French paper gives
some seasonable Information with regard to aspa
ragus. This vegetable grows wild in France, aud
may even now be gathered In the Bois de Vlnoennes
and other French forests. The wild asparagus Is
long, thin, and green all through, and has a slightly
acid but agreeable taste. It was first cultivated
nearly a hundred years ago by a well-known horti
culturist, Louis Therault Ho was at once strongly
linpresBsed with the difficulty since felt of rearing
asparagus successfully, and declared that In order
to produce a good result the watchfulness of a parent
and the skill of a physician are needed by the young
plants. They require above all things plenty of sun
shine, and seem to acknowledge their obligations
by pushing up their shoots towards the rising sun.
Most of the asparagus eaten In Paris is grows at
ArgenteuU. Three sorts are cultivated there, the
early, Intermediate, and late. The early variety
comes up about the 25th of March ; it then costs 10
francs the bundle of twenty stalks. The first
bundle generally appears on the Emperor's table.
The very largest stalks cost from 40 to CO francs.
Besides tne ArgenteuU asparagus, the consumption
of which greatly increases year by year, Paris is sap
plied with asparagus from the south. Tots Is long
and green, has a fine flavor, and requires very
little cooking, but Is not much appreciated by the
Parisians.
Tbk OFFiciRS of the Royal and Imperial AuBtrlan
army are full of virtuous Indignation, the Umperor
having just shown, by an unexpected act of vigor,
that he is no longer disposed to recognlzo their
hitherto undisputed right to kill or malm such civi
lians as may Incur their high displeasure. A certain
Lieutenant-Colonel Baron von Wldmann had re
cently been appointed to the presidency of a depart
ment of the War Office, euphoniously termed the
Landesvertheldlgungsmlnlsterlum. It appears that
some few years ago the noble and gallant Baron,
then a lieutenant at Gratz, was the heio of a "Sabel
Affaire," in which, with proper pride and spirit, he
split open the skull of an Ill-mannered pastrycook
who had refused him further credit. The affair was
of course hushed up. They manage those things
better in Austria than In Prussia, where poor Count
Eulenberg was actually subjected to the ennui of
living six months in a fortress for having killed an
Insignificant French cook. The family, however, of
the deceased confectioner brought an action for
damages, and, after many years of litigation, suc
ceeded a few weeks ago in obtaining a verdict for
5000 florins. The affair having come to the ears of
the Emperor, he ordered an Inquiry to be made Into
the whole case, and finally requested the gallant
warrior to resign his appointment.
