Although no official announcement of the fact has been made, the fact that ail the Washington correspondents of the newspa pers state positively that the resignation of Secretary Cox, of the Interior Department, has been accepted leaves no doubt that the Presi dent has committed an act that is disgraceful in itself, that will alienate more than ever the best men in the country from his administra tion, and that will be a permanent injury to the Republican party. Mr. Cox, to use plain language about it, has been literally kicked out of office to oblige a clique of disreputable politicians who would disgrace any political party, and who have done more to injure the Republican organization than all the attacks of its open enemies. The offense of the Secretary of the Interior was that he made an honest and per sistent effort to commence a reform of our civil service. He very propeily and wisely confined himself to his own department, and, so far as lay in his power, exerted himself to bring his clerical force up to the highest state of efficiency, to free it as much as possible from the demoralizing influences of party politics, and to prevent the interference of mere political wire-pullers in matters for which he alone was responsible. In the task which he undertook to perform Mr. Cox was entitled to the cordial support of President Grant, who, more than any man who Las occupied the executive chair since the days of General Jackson, was in a position at the time of his inauguration to commence those reforms in the civil service for which all the best men in the country were calling. The President, it is true, did make the shadow of an effort, but he speedily allowed himself to be checkmated by Con gress, and gave up the fight. There was much that he could have done, however, in spite of Congress and in spite of all the political "rings" in the country, and such a ' total surrender of his personal independence as is involved in the dismissal of Secretary Cox is calculated to disgust every right-think ing man in the country. We say the dismis sal of Secretary Cox, for that is what the re signation of that gentleman amounts to, and his exit from office will be hailed by the ene mies of reform as an indication that no serious attempt to regenerate the civil ser vice may be expected so long as the present administration remains in power. Some months ago, when the letter of Secre tary Cox to the Republican Congressional Committee, refusing to allow a compulsory assessment to be made upon the clerks of his office for party purposes, was published, we said that he would be maligned without mercy and be made to suffer for his independence if there was any power in the hands of the political wire-pullers who composed the com luittee to wreak vengeance upon him. We did not, however, anticipate the result that has aotually taken place, for we gave the President credit for an independence of spirit and an honest desire to serve the publio that it seems he does not possess. President Grant was elected quite as much upon the belief that he was not a partisan, and that he would strive to correct the evils that mere political partisanship has entailed upon the Government of the coun try, as upon his political record, and the dis appointment among his most enthusiastic supporters has been most profound at his dogged obstinacy in matters of no moment and his yielding almost without a straggle where firmness was imperatively necessary In this quarrel between Secretary Cox and the Congressional Republican Committee the duty of the President was plain, and he ought to have supported Mr. Cox at all hazards, and that he did not do so is as dis reputable to him personally as it is dis couraging to those who supported him in the hope that, while upholding the principles of the Republican party, he would prove himself so far superior to party influences as to refuse to yield to them when they were clearly an tagonistic to tee interests 01 me country. TUE RIOT ON THURSDAY LAST, The fair fame' of Philadelphia as a city of law and order, not to speak of her character as a city of brotherly love, will be materially damaged by the disgraceful riot at the meet ing of the Return Judges on Thursday last The object of the rioters, who on that occa sion forced their way into the room where the votes of the people were about to be counted op, is supposed to have been a violent de struction of the returns and such an inter raption of the proceedings con nected with their offioial examination as would virtually have nullified, for - the time being, the decision of the citizens of the whole municipality on the preceding "Tuesday. There was a method in their mad ness, and although they cannot be tried or punished lr mere intentions, scarcely a doubt can be entertained that, instead of acting under a mere temporary ebullition of passion, they aimed at nothing short of the praotical destruction of the offlolai evidences jf $9 0Tffll9Uair2 tri0lP4 01 tU? Re publican party on the previous Tuesday. That a portion of the police foroe, instead of thwarting from the outset every move ment that tended to facilitate such a nefarioui design, became aiders and abettors of the rioters is evident from the facts heretofore published in our local columns, and we understand that it can also be proven by a highly respectable wit ness that one policeman gave a reviver to one of Che rioters to help him break up the meeting of the Return Judges. What oc curred in that meeting, which should have been as sacred from violent Intrusion as our highest courts, is now matter of publio noto riety, and if any new evidence was needed to confirm the accounts given by the re porters, it would be furnished by the statement of one of the J ndges of the Supreme Court that on the morning after the meeting the room in which it had been he'd was "a wreck, the furniture, books, and fixtures having been used as weapons." If we are to pass under the rule of rowdyism and ruffian ism, there is no surer way to establish the unchallenged ascendancy of the champions of force and fraud than to permit them to invade with impunity one temple of Justice after another, until the edicts they con coct in gambling-houses and thieves' dens become the supreme law of the city. We should be thankful, however, that tardy warrants have at last been issued for the arrest of men charged with such a dangerous crime. This step has been accom panied by the issue of a warrant for the arrest of William B. Mann, who was present at the meeting of the Return Judges at the invitation of that body, and whose imputed offense consists in urging one of the assailed officers of the election to defend him self. As the whole difficulty will, we presume, be made the subject of a tho rough legal investigation, we do not wish to dwell upon it here, or to attempt to influ ence public sentiment, but in the interests of the people we cannot refrain from protesting against any and all attempts to put In the same category the offense of men who at tempt to riotously break up one of the most important civil proceedings connected with a republican government and the action of an official or a counsel who, when wantonly as sailed while endeavoring to perform a peace able, proper, and necessary publio act, obeys the great law of self-preservation. THE PRESIDENT AND THE FENIANS. The pardon of the three Fenian prisoners confined in the Auburn Penitentiary by the President is a queer commentary upon his neu trality proclamation issued a few days ago. In that the President warns all violators of the neutrality laws that they must expect no mercy, while by his pardon of the three mis creants above named he gives the lie to his own words, and indicates as plainly as possi ble that Irishmen, at least when they engage in armed raids upon Canada, may expect every consideration from the Executive, and that their punishment, if they receive any at all, will be merely of a nominal character. No penalties were enforced upon the offen ders in the great Fenian raid, and the affair of last summer was an indication that the leaders of the bands of violators of the law who get up annual attacks upon Canada con. sidered themselves as secure from punish ment, if not from interference, on the part of Government. The second raid was not only a violation of the law, but it was an insult to Government of the grossest character, and the men who organized and commanded it should have been made to suffer in propor tion to the magnitude of their crime. N$w they and their followers will laugh at the President and his proclamations, and the jail delivery that has followed fast upon the Executive announcement of an intention to enforce the laws in all their integrity will most surely be taken by the Fenian leaders and their deluded followers as an indication that the President is, so far as they are concerned, afraid to put his threats into execution. The warlike ardor of the Fenian organization can undoubtedly be cooled very considerably, sufficiently so at least to prevent it carrying on a war against Great Britain and Canada, with oar territory as a base of operations, if such men as Starr, Mann, and Thompson are tried, convicted, locked up in penitentiaries, and employed in making shoes for a term of years, with the clear understanding that they need not hope to get out until the sentences imposed upon them are carried out; but no such understanding as this will ever be impressed upon the Fenian mind so long as the President issues proclamations like that of last Friday on one day, and par dons for the very offenses he condemns on the next. Not only will the Fenians be encour aged by this last performance of President Grant, but the French, Germans, and Cubans will certainly conclude that he does not mean what he says, and that if they are prevented from extending substantial aid to their friends, it will be because they are not able to command as much political influence as the Irish, and an injury of the most deoided character will be done the Republican party by holding it responsible for the crooked ways of him who they have a right to con sider its representative man. The New York Tribune publishes a list of subscriptions to the Free Trade League since the first of February last, amounting to more than forty thousand dollars, more than nine tenths of which was contributed by foreign bankers, representatives of foreign steamship lines, or importers of foreign goods. It is eminently appropriate that men who are so thoroughly identified with foreign interests should furnish the sinews for the war against American industry. One of the most remarkable developments of the late election is the wonderful degree of partisan apathy prevailing, which is indicated by the comparative smailness of the vote as well as by the diminished ma j oil ties in a num ber of the Democratic as well as the Repub- I UfftU stronghold, The leference U un avoidable that an unusually large number of citizens are dissatisfied and disgusted with the machinations of both sets of the politioal leaders of the day, and that they are ripe for an Independent and rigorous movement, under good auspices, for a thorough reform and political purification. , The bepobted Democratic net Congres sional gains at the elections held on the 11th instant have dwindled down to two in Indiana and probably not more than one in Pennsylvania. If Sckenck and Morrell suc cessfully contest their seats, the net Demo cratic gains In Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Iowa, and Nebraska will probably not be more than one member. OBITUARY. The ArrhbUhap mt Quebee. On Friday last tbe Most Rev. Charles Francis Ball- largeoOjJfc-D., Roman Catholic Archbishop of Que bec, died in that city of dropsy of the heart, at the age ol seventy-two. lie was born In 1793, and entered tbe priesthood about the year 1330. For many years before his elevation to the Archblshoprlo he was Coadjutor Bishop, and performed all the most arduous duties of the archdloceie. Els labors were much increased by the advanced age and in firmities of his superior, and when he was called upon to assume full control of the archdiocese he had a fall knowledge of all its details that particu larly fitted him for fining the position of Archbishop. Tbe Archbishopric of Quebec embraces the districts of Quebec, Beance, Montmagny, Kamouraska, and a part of Saguensay. It contains 196 churches, 89 mission chapels, I university, IS colleges, 89 con vents, 4 hospitals, and 4 asylums. There are also In tbe diocese six religious orders, and the Archbishop directs the labors of 49 ecclesiastics and 862 clergy men. The Catholic population of the diocese Is 860,000, About two months ago the Archbishop was seized with a sudden Illness while upon a pastoral visit, and remained In delicate health until he sank sud denly on Friday last. He was much beloved, and the news of his death was received with profound sorrow throughout his archdiocese. The body now lies In state In tbe Arcbleplscopal Chapel at Quebec, from which it will be buried to-morrow. Aucast Vlllemot. The death of M. August Vlllemot, a French Jour nalist of distinction, Is announced. He was born in 1811, and received a good classical education. The first position he occupied that brought him Into public notice was that of secretary of the Porte St. Martin Theatre. He alter ward obtained a subordi nate Government position, and in 1847 he established an Independent paper entitled It Retorgimento. In ISSJhe was editor of the Emancipation, and after ward of the Independence Beige. He was more lately a co-worker with Vlllemessant on tbe Figaro. HEAVY FORGERY. Attempted Swindle In HTfwr York A Forced C beck tor 877,000. The New Icrk Evening I'ost of Saturday eajF: A forged check for $77,000 was discovered 1h Wall street s esterday aHcrnoon. Some days aero a man named J. R. Ltvlogston bought from Wells, Fargo & Co. $100,000 worth of Kansas Railroad bonds at IVA. elving in exchamre a check for $77,000, which purported to be certi fied by Haiigarten oc Uo. I ma cuecK was de posited . in the Continental Bank, and in the course of exchanges came to the Park Bank. The teller of the latter bank discovered that the check was. forged, and it was returned as such to tbe Continental Bank. Mr. Tlmpson. tbe cashier of the latter bank, investigated the case, and discovered that Livingston had bor rowed upon the bonds $50,000 from the Com mercial Warehouse Company, who had given hint two checks of $25,000 each on the Park Bank and on the Manhattan Company. He deposited tnese cnecKs with uaiaweil x Co., and ordered them to buy $30,000 worth of five- twenties. When this order had been executed Livingston called for the bonds and asked for the balance in money. He was identified by a broker named Cbadwick. but Caldwell s Co, demanded an identiticatlon from the Commercial Warehouse Company. At this point Mr. Tlmp' son exposed bis real character, but unfortu natelv no arrest was made. SPECIAL NOTICES. For additional Special Notice gee In tide Pages, - ACADEMY OFMUSIC.
