CONFIRMATION OF AKERMAN.
The Senate yesterday confirmed the nomi
natioa of Ainos Tappan Akerman as Attorney
General of the United States, and thus placed
& colonel of the Rebel army in one of the
tnont responsible positions in the Cabinet.
The propriety of this action is exceedingly
questionable. "SVe cordially favor a forget
fulness of the bitter passions and prejudices
of the war, and have no objection to the ap
pointment of men with Rebel reoords to lu
crative and responsible offices in their respect
ive States. We appreciate the .peculiar po
sition of men who, like Akerman, labored
zealously after the termination of their ser
vice in the Rebel army to reconstruct their
Commonwealths on republican principles,
and find no fault with the administration for
rewarding them with a liberal share of local
patronage. But limits of some kind should
La affixed even to universal amnesty. We
should not think it quite the correct thing to
elect and inaugurate Jefferson Davis as the
next President of the United States, and yet,
in principle, there is no
materia! difference between such
a proceeding and the nomination and confir
mation to a high Cabinet position of a man
who, according to his own formal confession,
voluntarily entered the Confederate service,
and acted for eighteen months as one of its
military officers. For this course of the new
Attorney-General various excuses have been
made. We are told that he was against dis
union before the secession ordinances were
parsed, for the Union as soon as its re
establishment was placed beyond all doubt
or pei adventure, and in the Rebel army only
while there was a plausible prospect of the
success of the Rebel cause. No skilful time
server could have regulated his movements
with greater precision. Mr. Akerman's
skill in calculating f he chances and in making
his principles conform to the varying for
tunes of the struggle can only be exoelled by
the French politician who swore to ' maintain
forever a dozen constitutions in as many
months. When we are told that his reason
for voluntarily entering the Rebel army was
his deaire to secure self-protection and an
opportunity to remain in the State of
Georgia, from which he might otherwise have
been expelled, our admiration of his tactics
and character is immeasurably heightened.
In a time w hen every day was replete with mag
nificent new illustrations of American heroism,
this wise lawyer sought personal safety in the
command of troops Mho were presumably
organized to fire upon his own Northern kin
dred. His love for his adopted State of
Georgia, where, according to the statement
of one of his friends, "he had accumulated a
competent estate," was so great that he felt
compelled to remain near the scene of his
property, even at the hazard of complicity in
the slaughter of the friends- of his youth,
and with the certainty of casting his whole
moral, political, mental, and military in
fluence against the Union cause!
Although mankind reveres the martyrs of
all great faiths, it has no right to demand
the martyrdom of any one; and it is quite
clear that if it demands steadfast adherence
to the tight never so loudly, Mr. Akerman
will not respond one instant longer than pru
dence, founded on an impartial study of im
mediate emergencies, shall dictate. There is
Done of the martyr-stuff in his composition.
If his future is to be judged by his past, he
will always be found ready to attach his for
tunes to the winning side, and to cringe as
graciously to Grant to-day as he would have
cringed to Jeff. Davis seven years ago. In
the economy of nature such men may have
their uses, but if the nation places many citi
zens of the Akerman stamp in its highest
official positions, no one should be surprised
if the Cabinet again becomes a hot-bed of
treason.
DEMOCRACY IN VERMONT.
The Vermont Democracy recently held their
annual State Convention, and it is pleasing to
leara that, despite a series of local defeats
extending through more than half a century,
they "still have faith in the wisdom and in
tegrity of the people," and still cherish a hope
that "ultimately they will rise in their majesty
end strengtn. ana nun xrom power our cor
rupt rulers." Weak in numbers, they cling to
their ancient altars as devotedly as the Pueblo
Indians of New Mexico, and offer up their
Annual sacrifices with as much regularity as if
their foud anticipations had never been
Llarted. Like their fellow-partisans in other
States, they profess to be endowed with a
profound regard for the Constitution, their
chief ground of opposition to Republicanism
Leing ita alleged violation of the provisions
of that instrument; ani, like the Ue
mocracy of other sections, they lay
special stress upon those parti
of the Constitution which were formed
eighty year ago, while they ignore or forget
the amendments of modern origin. The
Constitution as it is lias oeasea to be a
favorite Democratic rallying-cry. That party
reserves its sympathies for the Constitution
, as secession leaders formerly expounded it,
find withholds its reverence alike from the
modifications made necessary by the changod
condition of national affairs, and from the
true interpretation of the original instrument.
Democratic orators and writers have
Fpolitu and written au incalculable
. jiuiouit Ml. W ft'.'V-il tho CW.tituUgs.
I'rofebFting interne reverence for the'
teachings of Jefferson, they ignore his posi
tive declarations in favor of radical changes
of fundamental laws whenever such changes
are necessitated by the coarse of event, and
they are blind to the truth that the best
framework of government which the wit of
man could devise for the present day might
easily become insupportably tyrannical to
those who occupy the stage of action a hun
dred years hence. In point of fact, the
thing which the Democracy prefers to wor
ship is merely a bulwark of treason and
slavery, created by their distortions and false
interpretations of the Constitution, and the
Republican party, by its amendments, has
only restored, affirmed, enlarged, and adapted
to the existing exigencies its true meaning. ,
It is to be hoped that Select Council at its
next meeting will concur in the ordinance
passed yesterday by the Common branch,
creating a loan of $2,000,000 for the further
extension of Fairmount Park. The work of
putting the Park grounds into proper shape
has scarcely commenced, and it will be
several years before they , can be made what
they ought to be. We expect a grand inter
national exposition to be held here in 170,
and as the buildings will undoubtedly bo
placet in the Park, it is of tthe utmost im
portance that the improvements should be
pushed forward as rapidly as possible, if our
magnificent pleasure ground is to present such
an appearance as it should. The
natural advantages of Fairmount Park
are greater than those of any
other 'place of the kind, probably, in the
whole world, but before nature can be shown
to the best advantage art must lend its aid;
and considering the vast extent of the work
to be performed, it is of the highest import
ance that it should be seriously commenced
at as early a day as possible and pushed for
ward as rapidly as is consistent with thorough
ness. Councils will shortly adjourn for the
summer, and if the Loan bill is not acted
upon by the Select branch next week there is
danger that in the rush of business it may
fail to receive the attention is deserves and
be laid over until September.
The Senate, a few day3 ago, refused to
abolish the franking privilege, and when the
result of the vote on the question was an
nounced it was received with shouts of
laughter by honorable Senators who evidently
considered the proposition to reduce the ex
penditures of the Post Office Department hfl
$5,000,000 or more per annum as a glorious
joke. It remains now to be seen whether
they will esteem the agitation for the aboli
tion of the income tax as a jest also, and thus
wind up the session by two acts in direct defi
ance of the will of the people. There is hope,
however, that the Senators will be amenable
to reason on this last subject. They must
know that the feeling against the con
tinuance of the tax is exceedingly
hitter, and that any public man
who may venture to advocate it will
certainly be made to feel the weight of public
indignation whenever he may come up for
any office of trust or honor. Unlike the
franking privilege, this is not a question of
personal interest with the Senators, and as
they have nothing to lose individually by
abolishing the tax, it is possible that they
may agree to comply with the wishes of those
who now protest against the income tax as a
nuisance of the most gigantic dimensions.
The subject was debated yesterday without
any conclusion being arrived at, but as nearly
all the Senators who spoke declared them
selves as opposed to the tax, there seems to be
a fair probability that enough votes will be
secured to put an end to it at once and for
ever. As ordinance for the regulation of the
Water Department was discussed in Select
Council yesterday, and after considerable de
bate was laid over until September. This
measure is designed to enforce a greater
economy in the use of water than has been
the custom heretofore, and if there is any
serious danger that our water supply will
prove insufficient, some regulations to pre
vent its waste should undoubtedly be esta
blished. With the Delaware on one side of
us, however, and the Schuylkill on the
other, it is scarcely possible that this
city can ever lack an abundance of
the fluid, provided proper means are taken to
supply enough reservoirs and to keep them
filled; and it would be vastly better to in
crease the facilities of the water works than
to place any restrictions upon the citizens.
The health of Philadelphia largely depends
upon an abundant water supply, and although
it may seem that much water is wasted, it
needs no argument to show that it is better
to use too much than too little. The drought
last summer was owing to the insufficiency of
the machinery in use at Fairmount, and it
ought not to be considered as a legitimate
reason for placing any restrictions on the use
of the water, except in some similar case of
emergency.
The Cuban resolutions submitted to the
Senate yesterday by Mr. Sumner are decided
ly the most complete and correct expression
of the sentiments of the American people on
the various questions involved that has yet
been attempted. They do not display rabid
partisanship for either of the contending
parties, nor ignore the virtues and the crimes
of either 6ide. They take strong grounds
against the barbarities committed alike by
the agents of the Spanish Government and
the insurgents, protest vigorously against
the continuance of slavery and the colonial
system as applied to America, and yet they
appeal to the enlightened judgment of
the Spanish people for a redress of
the prevailing grievances instead of approving
illegal interference. In the end the official
eipresaion of such sentiments may do the
Cubans more real ;ood than the despatch of a
dozen ill-htarred filibustering expeditious
from our ih'jr?.
A proposition was introduced in Common f
Council yesterday to have the old State House
bell tolled on the Fourth of July next in front
of Independence Halt- We fail to see any
particular reason for such a performance as
this tinder any circumstances, and it will be
particularly objectionable from the fact that
the bell is so badly craoked that it cannot
emit any musical sounds, and that it will in
all probability be injured to a greater extent
than at present by being dragged from its
present position and hammered at. The bell
is useless for all practical purposes, and it
had much better be permitted to rest in peace
on its pedestal in the hall where the Declara
tion of Independence was signed.
WA National Industrial Exhibition.
During the months of September And October
next, the American Institute of New York city
will hold their thirty -ninth annual Fair at the
Empire Rink. The exhibitions of the American
Institute in former years have been brilliant af
fair?, and it is expected that this one will sur
pass all that have preceded it. Those who pro
pose to send contributions can obtain circulars
giving classification of articles, rales for the ex
hibition and all other necessary particulars, by
addressing the Corresponding Secretary, Ameri
can Institute, friew York City.
From time to time a rumor goes through the press
ofcerttin lost portions of Livy having been dis
covered somewhere or other. If we remember
rightly a recent novel of Gustav Freytag tarns anon
this incident. Now, however, it seems that a real
MS., containing not a lost portion, but nearly the
whole of the I'oorth Decade, was discovered recently
in the Petro-raullne Library at Llegnitz, in Silesia,
by the Librarian and a Professor of the Gymnasium.
It may well be that this is one of the many HSS. of
IJvy which were still extant in the fifteenth century,
and which were unaccountably loet after the publi
cation of the "Kditio rrinccps," in Itome, in 1469.
We may remind our readers that out of the 142 books
(divided Into decades), only thirty, with the largest
portions of five more, now survive, embracing the
period from 201 to 16T, and that among the frag
ments Imbedded In other works, Llvy's "Character
of Cicero" is conspicuous. There Is no reason to
doubt the genuineness oflhls discovery.
