TJ1E WAnNEW&
Tiie prospects of a successful resistance by
the French to their invaders grow ' 'small by
degrees and beautifully Icbs." Every day
brings into bolder relief the military and po
litic U weakness of the empire. Of all the
blunders recorded in history there is nothing
equal to the folly displayed by Napoleon in
provoking the present war; and when the bit
ter consciousness of this fact is bronght home
to very citizen of France, as it soon will be,
the prolongation of his rule will become im
possible. The ruo&t significant items of intelligence
printed during the last few days are those
which indicate the growing strength of the
opinion that Faris will not only be besieged,
but that it must soon cease to bo the capital
propositions to remove the soat of govern
ment to a Bafer locality having already been
freely discussed.
In this country such an experiment might
be made without destroying public confi
dence. The British compelled the Conti
nental Congress to adjourn from Philadelphia
to Lancaster during the Revolutionary war,
and they destroyed the public buildings at
Washington during the war of 1812 without
compelling the Amerioan people to sue for
poace. Hut Paris holds a widely different
relation to France. Authority has been cen
tralized in that city for so many centuries
that its fall will imply the virtual destruction
of any Government that proves unable to
defend it. If the Emperor aban
dons it to its fate, and attempts
to issue Imperial edicts from some
obscure fortified town, be cannot hope to
secure unquestioned obedience, and the dis
position will be stronger than ever to estab
lish a rival authority in the old citadel, even
if it Las to be defended in part by Prussian
bayonets. The plan to perpetuate the con
test, under the present regime, after the
capital is invested, is as cowardly as it is
oruel, and if it is attempted it will only make
Napoleon sink lower than ever in the estima
tion of his subjects and the civilized world,
without serving his desperate purpose.
If he, or parties representing
Lim, cannot respond to a Prussian summons
to surrender Paris, either by driving off the
invaders or by making peace, he has no right
to drag on a hopeless fight until the whole
land is devastated. The Emperor committed
a faarful blunder when he staked the safety
of France on the superiority of his regular
army, and he will make this error more
grievous than ever, instead of repairing it, if
be undertakes to provoko continued carnage
and devastation until he can convert raw
levies into soldiers endowed with the courage
and steadiness of veteran troops.
CIPHER.
V'i have received a communication from the
LouLuaca carpet-bagger, J. Ii. Sypher, in
which he indulges in a variety of opprobri
ous epithets evidently intended to wound
our sensibilities, and inclosing some
extracts from the New Orleans Timed
which refer to that little matter of a
cadetbhip which he wished to sell but could
not because he asked more than the market
value for it. The remarks wo had occasion
to make a short time ago with reference to
fyphc-r, when we learned that he had suc
ceeded in getting the Republican nomination
for Congress in the First district of Louisiana,
appear to have irritated him slightly, and he
appears in a card which denies that he ever sold
or offered to sell a cadetship, and challenges
any one to produce any proof to the contrary.
The point at issue is, Did Sypher offer to Bell
a cadethhip, and, did he only fail to do so be
cause he could not get the money ? We assert
that he did, and we believe we can prove it to
the satisfaction of a disinterested public.
During the investigation into the sale of
cadetships conducted by the Military Commit
tee of the Tlouse of Representatives last Febru
ary and March, on the 19th of February E. P.
Brooks testified that he applied to J. II. Sy
pher for the purchase of a cadetship, but that
that individual refused to negotiate with him
directly, but referred him to his brother, J.
U. Hypher, of Philadelphia. In a conversa
tion with the Washington correspondent of
the Philadelphia Morning Post, which we
fiud reported in the issue of that paper of
February 22, Brooks says:
The honorable gentle man. i. e, 3. H. Sypher, in
formed me most tlistinetly that any ewiaithttni l
inin Id mote ti lth hi brother would be tutirely natUfao
tthi to him.
'I knew that J. R. Sypher was a f rami. ant conse
quently tiealt with him as such, and ia doing go re
timed to advance him any rculuer, but declared mv
vuilinguc-Ks to deposit t-"Mj with auy houeat uiaii
that he might select from among his limited ac
tjualutaiiceti with that ciass of persona. I deny that
I ever had attempted or claimed to have anv
other acquaintance with Congressman Sypher
than that which h sought himself. lie
was - a 'weak Bister,' whoso lutioeoce or friend
ship was not wort ft viirring, and he proved
It when I talked 'Turkey' to htm by voluntarily
Aitiy for hi brother to come to Waahtugton.
When, in response to thfs fraternal call, J. K.
fevpher tame to Washington, he begged me to aid
him iu framing an excu.vj for his abnce from his
Dt ot duty, and finally, when ho returned to Phl-t-lplda,
it waa with the distinct underatandlng
that 1 tcmld have both ca.l tshlps fcrfsoo whenever
1 wanted them. He gays I annoyed him, and seems
to regret that be did not kick me out of his pre.
Heme, to which I answer that his Inquiries regard
ing mv capacity totranaot the business then peud
lu feu'mtieutly prove that his only cause for aunoy
auce waa a fear that 1 would not pay him enough
money "
In reply t the testimony of Brooks J. It.
Cypher published a deliciously ingenuous
cird to the following eff ect in The Evemso
Telegraph of February V., 1870:
'To ii Kttitor of 27 e F.ttninq Teleuraph:
mFhil.isi i-hia, Feb. 1, lsTo. I see published la
vour paper of yesterday a 'special despatch' from
Vkshlngtou, which gives the testimony of one
Brooks relative to his application tome to procure
the apioiiitment to a calelati at West i'olut.
"It Is true that this man ii rooks did, on several
occasions, importune me to procure for him such uu
appointment. It is not true tlut I ever agreed to
piocure one for any price or consideration, or for
uny camel or ur.numcd. Perh.ip3 ! g'iouU h ive
liKUcsivUously ikied this wn (rum mj presence ;
but 1 1 hose rather ts nw mild means, and therefore
tesortert to the professional expedient of demanding
a retainer of fv'XK). which I Judged rightly to be far
beyond his ability to pay. I followed this demand
by the declaration that the acceptance of this re
til nor wonld In no way hind me to procure for htm
an appointment ; nor had tt any reference whatever
to the fact that I had brother In Congress. I aid
to him, further, that I would under no consideration
recommend for nomination to the Military or the
Naval Academy any person who was not la every
wav eligible for that position.
"1 was never before, nor have I been since this
occurrence, approached by anv man on this or a
similar subject. Tnts whole affair is tie culmination
of a conspiracy of the parties who were leagued to
deft ami the Associated Press, ami this personal
attack is In retaliation for the part I was compelled
to tuke In their exposure.
"Respectfully, J. R. Rvi'.tsrc."
J. 11. S. was wise, certainly, if not vir
tuous, when he concluded to charge Brooks
a larger fee than ho would be abb to pay
rather than kick him, as he was at first im
pelled to, but then the scripture tolleth us
that "the children of this world are wiser in
their generation than the children of light,"
and as when any effective kicking is to be
done there must always be two parties to it,
Cypher probably concluded that he might
poRpibly find himself in the position of kickee,
whereas $ 2000 would be a nice, comfortable
sum of money to have ia hau l if he could
get it.
Perhaps Brooks was lying when ho told the
story he did, but in view of the corrobora
tive evidence of J. It. Sypher, we do not
believe that fie was. The man with the
cadetship for sale J. II. Sypher, of Loui
siana evidently wanted to escape from com
promising himself legally by bargaining
directly with Brooks; but does he really sup
pose that the intelligent people of this coun
try are to be deceived by any such trans
parent subterfuge? And although he did not
sell his cadetship for 2"00, or any other sum
that we are aware of, he is just as guilty as if
he did, and he is not a proper man to sit in
Congress to make laws for the nation.
Fie undertakes to assert that this accusa
tion was originally brought forward to defeat
his admission to the House at the last session.
His application for a seat in the House to
which he had never been elected was a con
summate piece of impudence, aud as he is
evidently on the make, the large sum ef
money which Congress wa3 foolish enough to
allow him for his "expenses" probably soothed
his disappointment; but with that we have
nothing to do at present, and with regard to
the accusation against him we need only say
that if he is guilty the motives of his accusers
are of no consequence whatever. Mr. Brooks,
whose testimony got the Syphers into diffi
culty, might be heard from with advantage
on the point at issue, and he caa probably
give the people of the First Louisiana dis
trict some very exact information about the
moral character of this would-be representa
tive. The Morning Pott, which ventilated
this matter pretty thoroughly when it was
first broached, could also doubtless say eotna
thing to the purpose.
When the news of Sypher's recent nomina
tion was received in this city, his agent went
around to the different Eepublican newspa
pers asking them to give him good notices.
We complied with the request to the best of
our ability, end there is nothing whatever in
our "puff" that we are disposed to retract.
On the contrary, we repeat what we
said then, "That it is a disgrace suoh a
man as this should be one of the most pro
minent representatives of the Eepublican
party in Louisiana, and every honest man in
the country would rather see a decent Rebel
elected to the House of Representatives for
the First Congressional district of Louisiana,
than a loyalist like Sypher, who considers his
loyalty just so much stock in trade, to be dis
posed of for the benefit of his bank account."
THE "DOODLE' QAME.
Ok Monday last there was a very curious per
formance in the United States District Court,
before Judge Cadwalader, that involves
something more than a suspicion that some
body connected with the court has been play
ing the "boodle" game with justice. Andrew
J. Weightman, who is known as the "Boodle
King' on account of his brilliant success in
selling, to unsuspecting innocents, packages
of worthless blank paper, under the pretence
that they contained first-class imitations
of United States greenbacks, was ar
rested la6t spring, and an indict
ment was found against him for
counterfeiting. It appears that he found it
just as easy and a great deal cheaper to play
the "boodle" game with money of his own
manufacture as to use that issued by the
Government, and at the time of his arrest he
had upon his person counterfeits representing
$20,000. After a delay of several months his
case was called up, and the United States Dis
trict Attorney opened the prosecution by
stating what he expected to prove against
Weightman. In the meantime Judge Cadwala
der occupied himself with studying the wording
of the indictment, and when the District
Attorney took his seat he astonished every
one by declaring that the indictment was de
fective, and that a trial was consequently
useless, because if a conviction was obtained
it could not be sustained. The District At
torney accordingly abandoned the case, and
in accordance with the instructions of the
Judge the jury rendered a verdict of not'
guilty.
This man Weightman U one pf the most
contemptible as well as one of the most dan
gerous of the gang of counterfeiters and
sharpers who are engaged in the "boodla"
business, and it is a great scandal upon the
United States District Court that he should
have been permitted to escape in the way he
did. When acting as a Government detec
tive, Weightman threw temptation after
temptation into the wav of an engraver who
had hitherto borne an irreproachable charac
ter, and never rested until he had per
suaded him to et grave some counterfeit
beer btamps. Having once secured his vic
tim, he then proceeded to demonstrate his zeal
for the cause of justice by denouncing him,
and the result was that the engraver was sent
to the Penitentiary, while hii tempter wat per
mitted to run at large un whipped of justice.
Weightman ought to have been punished for
the part La acted iu Uw Lvt ut4Uiuti
transaction, and we believe he could have
been. But admitting that it was impossible
to bold him legally responsible, he certainly
proved himself to be a consummate scoundrel,
and the officers of the United States Court, if
they are virtuous themselves, ought to have
been glad of an opportunity to give him his
deserts. The proofs against him in the case
for which he was placed on trial last week are
said to have been most conclusive, and the
question now is who is responsible for the
flaw in the indictment, or was there really any
flaw? Judge Cadwalader has given some very
queer decisions since he has been on the
bench of the United States District Court,
and it is impossible not to entertain the sup
position that the "flaw" might possibly have
been in his imagination. Admitting that the
document was defective, however, which of
the two District Attorneys, Smith or Valen
tine, was it that drew it up? We do not wish
to charge either of these two gentlemen or
the Judge with intentional wrong-doing, but
there is certainly something here that needs
an investigation, for it is no slight outrage
for a court to turn such a scamp as Weight
man loose upon the community when it has
ample evidence before it to send him to the
Penitentiary.
