THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 1870. srzxizT or the run 33. Editorial Opinions of theLcading Journals uponCurrentToplos Compiled Every Day for the Evening Telegraph. LET GENERAL OIUNT mind nrs BUSINESS. From the K. Y, Sun. The luoilosty of General Grant in writing a letter to a Mis.ionri revenuo collector, read ing the Hon. Gratz Drown and Carl Schurz out of the Republican party, is neither ap parent nor real. Both of these gentlemen aided in the organization of the Republican party, both have been able and eioqnent ad vocates of its principles for the past fifteen years, and each has represented Missouri in the Senate of the United States with marked distinction. To undertake to proscribe such men because they Bee fit to express indepen dent opinions on certain political measures relating solely to the State of Missouri, and which have no connection whatever with Federal affairs, would bo beyond the juris diction of the party when assembled in a national convention. But for a single in dividual to assume to do this, and that in dividual one who was never a llepublioan at all till he became a candidate for the Presi dency, even if he was then, and who never voted for but two candidates for the Presi dency in his life, namely, James Buchanan in 18."G', and himself in 18(18, would be to the last degree presumptuous and arrogant, were it not superlatively ridiculous andjeontempti Llo. For the President of the United States t enter upon such a task as) this is disreputable, unseemly, and wholly aside from any duties imposed upon him by the Republican party, and much less by the great office whioh he thus degrades. Rather let General Grant quit the waterinc-places, where he is the dead-head ef tavern keepers and railway conductors, and the associate of adventurers and tricksters, and return to Washington, where his official oath requires him to be, and where the publio business suffers from his absence. Years ago Webster, Clay, and their eminent associates in the Whig party made the nation ring with denunciations because of the alleged interference by the Democratio administra tion with the perfect freedom of the elections, and because of the absence from Washington for brief periods of a portion of the Cabi net. What would these honored patriots say were they alive now and saw the Presi dent writing a letter to a petty revenue officer denouncing a distinguished Senator and ex fSenator for expressing opinions adverse to his own on a matter involved in a local eleotion, while the President himsolf spent nearly all Lis time on junketing tours, and his Cabinet kept running to and fro over the country, the business of their several departments suffer ing shamefully from their neglect of duty? Would not these great statesmen make the land vocal with their anathemas of such an administration? We repeat, General Grant's appropriate place just now is in Washington, and not at 'Long Branch or West Point; and his legiti mate business is, not meddling with nomi nating conventions in New York, or local elections in Missouri, but attending to the duties imposed upon him by the Constitu tion. SUNDAY SNEERS. From the N. F. World. There are many Beechors, but so far as we know there is now but one Frotbingham. The particnlar E Pluribus Unum Beecher (never mind the gender), whose co-operation with the one Frotbingham at a certain marriage death bed made the latter famous, has been all summer at a rural retreat, and his church con sequently like the theatres closed. Last Sunday being the opening of the autumn sea son, his pulpit was filled with another Beecher (James), clearly a chip of the old Litchfield block, and one who knows how, ia the spirit of the venerable Lyman, "To deal damnation round the land" in the most liberal measure. He thus de scribes the community in which our wretched lot is cast and we do not wonder that even in Brooklyn the sketch produced a "sensation": "It had been tils fortune to travel very largely among heathen nations, but there was, he said, worse heathenism in New York than in Canton or among the Hottentots of the Cape of Good Hope. I have seen the Bengalee Indians, the Chinese, the bouth Sea Islanders, the Crackers of Florida, and the hand llillers of South Carolina, and never, never, on the surface of tlod's earth, have I seen such mcu and women as I have the last weefc or two In New York city. They cannot be found. London may equal it. Hell does not surpass it." At the same moment the one Frothingham was blowing his trumpet on this side of the river, lie thinks as badly of New York as does the fraternal Beecher, though his inoul pation has a different bent. Beecher abuses us for overmuch heathenism; Frothingham for extravagant piety: "The superstition that prevails, even In this illu minated city of New York, is worse than famine, pestilence, war, despotism, slavery, for It is the source ana substance of all these evils. It is a taint oi the soul that clouds the sun, pollutes the earth, and demoralizes all our ideas of God aud virtue." That Frothingham means Christianity by "superstition" is made apparent by a death bed anecdote which, with characteristic dis regard of decenoy, he thus narrates: J here was an ex-Presideut of the United States, a good man, honest, sincere, and pure In his private and public life, who, when he was laid on his death bed, called for a minister, and expressed his desire t be sprinkled In baptism, hoping, as he said, that It was not too late. This strong, good man, when lie camo to breathe his last, hal no faith iu his virtue, his uprightness, his fidelity in public otnoe. but iu that supreme hour hoped to obtain, by some liiiraeulous grace hidden iu a few drops of water, that which a well-spent and honorable life would not give him." Who this ex-President was we are not in formed. It certainly was not Washington. He was "christened" in the old-fashioned manner, down in Westmoreland, and we know all about his death-bed. It certainly was not Lincoln, who was murdered in a theatre on Good Friday night, and, more over, was not an ex-President. It mast, we imagine, have been John Quincy Adams. If it were, then surely the bowing down in humility of so masculine a spirit as his, the abnegation of all personal merit, the recog nition by a visible sign of his reliance on something surer and higher than his own self sufficiency, was the noblest consumma tion possible to "a well-spent and honorable life.' Such a death-bed in any case could provoke the sneers only of a nature which had learned to adulate popularity instead of adoiing Providence. In the case of John Quinry Adams, if his it were, the soofl'er out rages the ties of kindred and the sanctities of a Christian's home to insult the altars of a Christian faith. TnE CURSE OF OUR CITY LIFE. From the K. Y. Time. Example is generally admitted to be more powerful than precept. It may, therefore, be feared that when the instructors of oar youth seek to Inculcate moral lessons, their efforts are likely to be neutralized by the scenes which the rising generation may be hold on their way home. They hear, for in stance, of a man who has contrived to seize the control of a great enterprise in which a large amount of capital was invested, be longing to persons who are, many of them, in straitened circumstances. His name is associated with all sorts of trickery and double-dealing. It might be supposed, there fore, that he would be looked upon as a social pariah, and that no respectable person would have anything to do with Urn. But the youth who is fresh from hearing that "honesty is the best policy," and other old-fashionod truths, finds it hard to reconcile these lessons with the every-day incidents of life. The man who has gone upon the principle tint dishonc&ly is the best policy flourishes liko the green bay tree. He drives out behind a four-in-hand. He issues invitations to par ties, and finds plenty of people willing enough to accept them. There was a time when, if a well-known man dared to appear in a public theatre or concert room in com pany with dissolute women, he would have been hissed. Now we are more tolerant. It seems safe for anybody to defy publio opinion. Our daughters are confronted wherever they go with profligacy in its vilest form, and our sons are placed in the way of seeing that to all appearance nothing pays so well as swindling. Until the public take this matter into thoir own hands it is hopeless to look for much improvement. At present the man who goes flaunting about the streets at the ex pense of honest people is thought to bo rather an amusing person. His career of villainy is deemed to be a good joke. Newspapers make a sort of pet of him, and he surrounds him self with agents who are ever ready to do any dirty work he may have occasion for. He finds that almost everything yields to the power of money. He can be called by any title he likes, so long as he will spend his money freely. And theso sort of men always comply with that condition. What costs them no effort to obtain they can afford to part with easily. The money which is rightfully the property of others they spend with wild reck lessness, and in every kind of vicious indul gence. After a long course of that behavior they become popular. They are called by their Christian names, and even decent women look upon them as only a "little eccentric." It is the publio who are to blame for moat of these excesses. When a well-known man dares to show himself in a publio theatre with notoriously abandoned women, he ought to be hissed out of the place. Until that explosion has taken place once or twice, we may expect to see that the scenes which disgraced Long Branch this summer, and are likely to scan dalize New York this winter, will inevitably be continued. The depravity of the young is already a subject of alarm to all who go about the world with their eyes open. What is it likely to become when the presont era of licentiousness has lasted a little while longer when men of notoriously bad char acter are allowed to force themselves into a conspicuous place in the social world? All society will feel the pernicious influence of what is now going on. Ilalf-a-dozen men, in league with each other and banded against the public, are doing as they please with New York. Is it not nearly time that the publio en deavored to protect themselves against these outrages? THE DEMOCRATIC SCIIE1IE. From the Chicago Republican. An examination of several Southern platforms discloses very clearly what the Democracy by mean by "new issues." Every one of them affirms the party doctrines of the past, to the extremest limits of secession; but advise, as that doctrine has been overthrown "by violence and usurpation," that it is safest to appear to acquiesce until reinstated in author ity, when all that humanity has gained can be safely overthrown. They all agree in de nouncing the reconstruction acts and the prohibitions of slavery. They deny the right of the nation at large to establish a uniform citizenship, or the equality of all men before the law, or the right of colored men to vote upon local or State affairs, even by amendments to the National Constitution; and they none the less now, than formerly, claim that a State has the ulti mate right to decide for itself whether it will adhere to, or withdraw from the Union, not withstanding the decision of the late civil conflict. In general terms, "now issues" mean that they yield nothing, but will work upon popular prejudices nntil they can get a chance to restore the old order of thing. In the South, there is no concealment of the purpose. At the North, the party is to take such shape and issue as it is expected will most easily cajole or deceive the voters. This is the settled programme. If any Republican has had the weakness to believe that incidental questions like the tariff or currency have really anything to do with the ultimate Democratio purpose, let bim read up the Southern scheme, as laid down in the party conventions. We have to look at the South to find what the party is really after, because a majority of it reside there, and that division has always controlled and dictated the policy and measures of the Northern section. They hate the republic, and do not hesitate to say so, boldly and defiantly. Of minor questions, and matters of mere detail, in the form of administration, they care nothing. What they aim to get rid of is the recognized equality of all men. To reach that, they are ready for an alliance with either free-trader or protectionist bondholder, banker or peo ple, who will aid them. Every side issue is fish for their net, so it works to their restora tion to the control of the Government again. The scheme is a deep one a wide-spread conspiracy against popular liberty and pro fessed acquiescence for a season is only the means to reach a different end. It is bad enough for Republicans to be deceived by professed friends, but what could equal the folly of being cheated by their enemies? SOME ILLUSTRATIONS IN TAXATION. from the Cincinnati Times. The Railroad Review congratulates the railway stockholders on the abolition of the tax on fares whioh will soon take effect. It is said by the Review that this will increase the value of the stocks, sinoe it will increase the net profits of the roads. Of course, then, the abolition of the tax is not to be followed by a reduction of fares, and the amount thus collected has come out of the stockholders instead of the people who patronize the roads. It is a very general opinion that taxation cannot be so levied that it will not fall upon labor, and every man who works be made to pay his share of it. It is true that labor pro duces all wealth and incomes out of which taxes are paid; bnt it is also true that some taxes are paid by the capitalists as, for ex ample, the tax on railway fares as confessed leaving them bo much less of the prolua tion of labor for themselves; while other til ies, such as those on tea, coiled, suir, tobacco, iron, salt, etc., are charged to the consumers, and made a source of increased profit to the capitalist. Such a tax has been levied on street rail way fares. Naturally, taxes on any article increase its Cost to the oonsumer; but there are certain taxes which capitalists pay and, by reason of competition, cannot make others pay for them. Such a tax is that on incomes, since a ian making $20,000 a year is not able to increase his prices because he pays $1000 tax on his income. Suppose the income of a newspaper establishment be $100,000 a tax of ten per cent, would yield $10,000, leaving Btill a net income of $00,000. Would the proprietor'throw up" his estab lishment because his net profits under the tax are but $00,000 ? Would he raise his prices for papers and advertising in conse quence of the tax ? Not exactly; because ho is controlled by competition, and the old rates are amply profitable notwithstanding the tax. MANHOOD FITNESS. From the Kcw Orleans Jirpublican. Having invited questions from badly in formed but willing Democrats, an orphan of one week's standing asks us what "manhood fitness-' is ? Come up here, you little newly fledged acolyte, and receive the lesson of the day, for if Hatch has cast you off, we are not disposed to give you up yet. The Democrat is small, but it is willing to be taught, and as there may be others not fully posted on this subject, our instructive thesis may be of general use. "Manhood fitness" is this that in the mys tery of the law certain requirements are stipu lated for voters. Men must bo of a certain ago; they must be naturalized or native born; they must be of sane mind; they must be en franchised. This is all. Now any man who can fill this bill is a voter, aud is fitted by manhood for that position. The law being blind cannot see his color, but it applies its tests, and if he comes up to the measure he is elected to be a citizen. He is a man, capable of enjoyment, liable to suffer, sub ject to taxation, amenable to punishment, worthy of reward. This is "manhood fitness" for citizenship. Tho man may not be rich nor poor; he may not be a worthy asso ciate for the good and virtuous, but still he is a man, and he is fitted by law and by his own nature to be all that the best citizen is. The State accepts him in his situation, to do the best ho can for himself, giving him the same opportunities that it offers to others. The law can not make him provident nor wise, nor can it make him a fool or a spend thrift. All it can do is to say that its favor is the same to him, in his way, as it is to a bolter man, in his way. And to appreciate this better, it is only fair to say that in this country society is the Stale. Manhood fitness, in a political sense, has a significance entirely distinct from what it has in a social sense. As we cannot strip a man of his absolute natural rights, so we should never deprive bim of certain absolute politi cal rights. All men should stand on tho same platform in the eye of the law in a republi can government. But as to social position, that is a province which society regulates for itself. Every man chooses his own asso ciates. Wise men congregate together, prize fighters seek one another, thieves hide in a common den, and drunkards fall into the gutter. Poverty shuns the palace, and wealth goes around the hovel. Eloquence lingers on the lips of Frederick Douglass, while solemn nonsense rails from the Demo cratio Finance Committee. And yot both of these parties are men, and if we were as blind as justice is said to be, it is easy to say that Douglass would get the largest room in the hotel, because the publio would lean to the most sensible company. The fitness of man does not depend on his color, but on his worth. 'REGULAR" NOMINATIONS. From tht I'ittubnrg Commercial. That the reform Republican ticket is not the best, neither the masters of the ring or any of its members have ever dared publicly to deny. That each man on it is not an honest, worthy, and capable Republican, is quite as undisputed by either Ringmaster Errett or the aged and corrupt ringmaster at Harrisburg, who daily sends his commands to his followers in this city. The only objection given for opposition to the reform ticket by Cameroon and his crew, is that it was not "regularly" nominated. That is, it did not go through the hands of the manipulators the markers the men capable of putting down five votes each when they only had one. To pretend that lie objects to a ticket simply because not regularly nominated is poking fun at one in earnest! Cameron, the "regular ! " This day he is plotting for the defeat of good men, regularly nominated by the party in different parts of the State, for no other reason than that neither he or his son can make merchandise of them next session at the State capital. His opposition to Governor Geary who was regularly nomi nated is well known. True, Mr. Cameron swore loyalty to the Governor and our cause last fall, but that was only putting his dupli city, treachery, and deceit in a worse light. The reform movement was inaugurated in Alleghany county because the organization of the party here was in the hands of a set of men who run the party to enrich themselves and so bad had things become that either this course had to be resorted to or the party would have gone down. The money of the public has been so squandered the misman agement of our publio servants has been so outrageous, that taxes are becoming too onerous to bear. All this because the puppets here obeyed the commands of their mastaa in Harrisburg, who is not interested a dollar in our city or county, and who does not bear one cent as his share of the burdens. The success of the Reform ticket will not only be the success of the Republican party, but its preservation and building up. The ring reduced our majority from 11,000 to but little over one-third that of last year, for no other reason than that their master did not like the Gubernatorial candidate, and found he could not use him. The vote this year will show that they polled last fall their full strength. All that is regular and fair in poli tics will be served by the success of our ticket. It was nominated to win, and none feel that it will stronger than the ring. Let them howl while it is yet day. Their night is near at hand. All good men will rejoice at their overthrow. WENDELL PHILLIPS. From the Memphi Avalanche. Wendell Phillips, whose lifelong boast has been his determination not to hold office, and whom the country has regarded as honest in his opinions, now not only accepts the Labor Reform nomination for Governor of Massachusetts, but resorts to the cheapest, baldest demagogery. In his letter of ac ceptance he declares it "a shame to our CLritstionity and our civilization for our social system to provide and expect that one man, at seventy years of ag, should ba the lord of u-auy thousands of dollars, while hundred of other iiienj who linye uitjJe as gn..l uj tbeir talents and opportunities, loan on cha rity for their daily bread." No working mm with three grains of common sense ex pects to obtain a dollar of his neighbor's goods except by working for it; and this hinting at agrarianism is simply low clap, trap, designed to deceive the ignorant and foolish. Certainly, no laboring man need be assured that what belongs to one man will not bo transferred to another without com I ensation; that for lands or other property people must look to their own exertions and not to the platforms of politioal demagogues. If the workingmen will look carefully about them they will find that nearly all those who assume their especial championship are sim ply office-Reekors, expecting to obtain plico and power through this shallow pretense of devotion to the cause of labor. Men who are honest in their professions do not attempt to fill the minds of thoir constituents with hatred towards other and more powerful cltifses. They do not attempt to obtain prefer ment for themselves through unworthy appc als to men's pnRsions. The man who seeks to teach workingmen that lands will come to them without purchase, or that any good can result from "labor reform" political pulics, is either a lunatio or a demagogue. He hns not tho interests of the laboring men at heart. The only interest he has at heart is self-interest; and instead of desiring to ameliorate the condition of the toiling masses, his only object is to uso them for his own selfish ends. This is plain talk, but it ii truth, and every workingman will seo its force. Tho move's the pity, most of the men who obtain control of labor organiza tions devote efforts which, properly directed, might result in good, to building up antagonisms between employers and em ployed; to persuading workingmen that their deadliest enemies are those not mechanics or laborers. It is time this charlatanry were re ceiving the contempt it deserves, and its authors were being kicked out of the plaoes they disgrace. As workingmen, devoting more hours each day to toil than the hardiest blacksmith or machinist within the bailiwick ef the Avalanche, we protest against' honest, hard-working industrious men who labor to support themselves and families being de ceived by the non-laboring frauds who sot themselves up a3 especial champions of labor and laborers. THE CENSUS OF ILLINOIS. From the Chicago Tribune. We printed recently a full report of tho census returns of this State. Tho grand total, with one precinct in Peoria county to be heard from, is L',."iG7,0;;2. Tho population of the State in 1800 was 1,711, !.1. The gain is 8",078, or over 50 per cent. The popu lation of the State in 18.10 was 8.1 1, 170. The increase from lSl'.o to 1870 is greater than the whole population of the State in 18.10. The population in 1870 is more than three times what it was in 18.10. Illinois now takes rank as the fourth State in population, boing exceeded only by New York, Pennsyl vania, and Ohio, and, in all probability, the difference between Illinois and Ohio has been largely reduced. The increase in this city has been 141 per cent., but otherwise has been general in nil parts of the State, the average outside of this city and county being slightly over 4.1 per cent. LaSalle county re tains its rank as the second county in the State in point of population. In other States the cities have gained, but at the loss of the country districts. In this State this has not been the case. Though some couuties have not increased at the same rate that others have, the increase has been general. The census being complete, the Governor will make the Legislative apportionment ac cordingly, and will announce it on the 28th. THE REPEAL MUDDLE. Frcm the Washington Star. The question as to whether Congress has really abolished the office of Secretary of the Interior, and indeed tho Interior Department, seems to be a more serious one than at first appeared. The facts are these: The Interior Depart ment was created by an act of 15d March, 1S4!, entitled "An act to establish the Home Department, and to provide for the Treasury Department an Assistant Secretary of the Treasury and a Commissioner of Customs." (0 Statutes at Large, chap, cviii, p. '.).".) This act creates an Interior Department, and provides for the appointment of a Secretary. It transfers to that office the supervision of patents, of the General Land Oluce, tho ac counts ef marshals, etc.; the Indian, Pension, and Census Bureaus, and of the publio build ings and the Penitentiary, and it also oreates the office of Assistant Secretary of the Trea sury, and provides for some details. Subse quent legislation added some special duties to the office. The late Congress, by "An act to revise, consolidate, and amend the statutes relating to patents and copyrights," approved 8th of July, 1870, greatly changed the details of these laws. It certainly looked to the con tinued existence of the office of Secretary of the Interior. But, in the repealing clause, it is expressly declared "that the acts and parts of acts set forth in the schedule of acts cited, hereto annexed, are hereby repealed, without reviving any acts or parts of acts repealed by any of said acts, or by any clause or provi sions therefor." The proviso has some im material savings as to antecedent rights. Then, not in the schedule, but in the repeal ing section, and before the signatures of the officers, is "act of March S, 1810, chapter 108, volume 0, pageoO.1." Thus, whatever may be urged as history and of want of legislative intention in words, the act creating the offices of Secretary of tho Interior and Assistant Secretary of the Treasury is repealed. The words are plain and unambiguous. The repealing clause em braces a dozen other acts, and whatever may be said against the repeal of one may be urged as to all others. As to the reason, and spirit, and effects, and consequences of such a repeal, they are for the lawyers and judges, when proper cases shall be made. Now that the discovery is made, questions must immediately arise for the Comptroller, for the Executive, the Department of Justice, and the courts. The very doubt may lead to the serious considera tion of an extra session. HOLITIOAL. FO K SHER IFF, WILLIAM li. LEEDS, TENT II WARD. IT 11 tf jy FOR REGISTER OF WILLS, 1SI0, WILLIAM 1.
