RESIGNATION OF SECRETARY COX.
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.

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.
