EST The Evening Telegraph, from its original establishment, has been in the receipt of telegraphic news from the New York Associated Press, which consists of the Tribune, Times, Herald, World, Sun, Journal of Commerce, Evening Post, Commercial Advertiser, and Evening Ex press. The success which has attended our enterprise is, in itself, a sufficient evi dence of the freshness, fullness, and relia bility of the news which we have received from this source. Last March we entered Into a special contract by which The Evening Telegraph has the exclusive use of the news furnished in the afternoon by the Associated Press to its own members, the North American, Inquirer, Ledger, Press, Age, Record, and German Democrat, of this city, and the leading journals of the East, North, West and South ; and hereafter The Telegraph will be the only evening paper published in this city in which the afternoon despatches of the Associated Press will appear. sT The 'earliest regular edition of Thx Evening Teleobaph goes to press at 1 o'clock, and the subsequent regular e litions at 2$, 8, and i. "Whenever there is im portant news of the progress of the Euro pean war, extra editions will be issued after this hoar, and before the regular time for the early edition. NEW DOCTRINE OF THE DEMO CRACY. At a reoent meeting of the Americas Club, a social Democratic organization of this city, William T. McOrath, oa being installed as President, gave bis fellow-laborers in the Democratic ranks some wholesome advice. Instead of dwelling, as is the general custom of political orators, upon the principles of the party, he directed attention to the neces sity of nominating good men, and good men only, as candidates for office. Principles are good things, and it is to the credit of this nation that its great political struggles are made to hinge on com prehensive doctrines. But the commendable national proclivity to dignify petty, ambi tious, and partisan nqnabbles by surrounding them with the halo of a noble cause may easily be, and in hundreds of thousands of cases it has been, fearfully abused. The veriest scoundrel in the land m y profess to be the most rampant Republican or the most devoted Democrat; and partisan organiza tions, as they are managed, afford far too many opportunities for scoundrels to gain, through such professions, official opportuni ties for plundering the people. Voters have so often been told that they should care for principles, not men, that they have ceased to pay proper regard to the neoessity for selecting good candidates or good appointees, and for having the Govern ment administered by good men on good principles. The modern tendency is to wholly ignore the maxim of the founder of this Commonwealth, that that form of govern ment is best which is best administered; and as a consequence of neglecting it, the evi dences are multiplying that rascals can pros titute the best forma to bad ends, and perpetrate, under republican institu tions, the most outrageous wrongs. We are glad to see, therefore, a leading Demo crat, in addressing a strict partisan organiza tion, warns his associates that, as a matter of policy, if not of duty, they must pick out their beBt men, instead of their worst onus, as candidates for office, Mr. McGrath foroibly reminds them that "it is worse than idle to make nominations unfairly, or select unfit candidates ;" and that "people who, by patient toil and the exercise of rigid economy, have acquired homes for themselves and families, will not confide the agency of their property, or the guardianship of the interests of their families, to thowe in whose ability or integrity they have no confidence." Those are simple but truthful and useful delara tions, and the time is near at hand when the people will act upon them. They are weary, oh, so weary, of giving one incapable robber a chance to pilfer their hard earnings beoaa.se false professions of devotion to Demooracy drop from his lying lips, and a chance to rob and ruin them to another venal sooundrel because he prates of his Iiepublicnnisin, and the perpetually repeated devices of plunder ing politicians to lure them on to ruin will soon lose all their old potency. Thb scheme concocted to rob the Kensing ton Bank last night is one of the most ingeni ous and audacious that ever entered iuto the brain of a professional burglar. We have heard of soldiers donning the uniforms of their antagonists to effect a surprise in war, but it is something new, in this latitude, at least, for robbers to gain entrance into a bank on the pretext that they are policemen detailed to guard it from spoliation. Verily, wolves in sheep's clothing abound among as. JOHN CESSNA AND THE CllOItP EN NINO CASE. Mr. Crkswell, the Postmaster-Qeneral, has published an explanation, setting forth that bis award in the Chorpenning cane, by whioh an ex-mail contractor and his accomplices came near getting more than $100,000 of money that was not justly due from the Gov ernment, was made solely in consequence of an act of Congress hastily rushed through at the heels of the last session. The authorship of that aot is attributed to John Cessna, one of the Republican membors of Congress from Pennsylvania, and we have looked in vaia for an explanation of his motives in opening the door of the National Treasury to the Chorpenning raid. Congress, as a body, has atoned for its error by repealing the law that made such extraordinary concessions to the ex-mail contractor; the Postmaster-General has explained his aotion by asserting that he was bound to obey the law as he found it on the statute-books; and the question now comes up, Why did the innocent and guileless Cessna seek the sanotion of his amiable associates for such a questionable enactment? It seems to have been generally supposed, a few days ago, that he would explain his part in this proceeding, but we are not aware that any explanation has yet been made or even attempted, and meanwhile Cessna's course is subjected to damaging comments. Was he the innocent victim of the delusions of a wily contractor ? or did he, with full knowledge of the effect of his proposition, wantonly connive at the nnjust abstraction of the people's money? THE SOLDIERS' ORPHANS. The State Senate yesterday passed a bill to transfer the care of the schools for soldiers' orphans from a separate superintendency to that of the Common School Department. This change is advisable for many reasons, for the expediency of the arrangement now exist ing has been open to many grave doubts from the very institution of the schools for soldiers' orphans, and their management has given rise to such complaints that some action on the part of the Legislature is imperatively demanded. Mr. Brooke in advocating the bill yesterday stated that nearly a year ago the Superintendent of Soldiers' Orphans, Colonel McFarland, had been rejected by a very decided vote, for very satisfactory reasons, but that the Governor had failed to appoint his successor, and he had ac cordingly remained in an important and responsible position for whioh he was entirely unfitted. Mr. Brooke, to de monstrate the necessity of a change, related how the schools for soldiers' orphans were managed in his district, and how the care of the children was farmed out by those en trusted by the State with the duty of super intending their welfare. Mr. Wallace also made a strong argument in favor ef the pro posed change, and stated truly that the use fulness of the superintendent had ceased and that some of the schools had become odious. That Colonel McFarland is not a proper per son to occupy such a delicate and responsible position as that of superintendent of soldiers' orphans is certain; but, as a matter of course, he had his defenders in the Senate yesterday, Mr. Mumma in particular being very pathetio over the fact that he had been maimed at Gettysburg. It is certainly high time that a stop was put to the praotice of bringing np the war records of men in extenuation of their incapacity or dishonesty while occupying offices of publio trust. We never yet under stood that a wooden leg was a guarantee of virtne, and the people of this State are not to be induced, by references to Colonel McFar land's wooden leg, to believe that he is a proper person to hold the position he now does, not by any proper authority, but by the refusal of Governor Geary to do his duty in appointing a sucoessor. By transferring the soldiers' orphans to the School Department Colonel McFarland will be legis lated out of office, and there is no doubt that the orphans are likely to be better oared for in the future. The House of Representa tives ought to pass the Senate bill without further delay, and thus put an end finally and forever to a system that has already outlived its day of usefulness, if it ever had any, as separate from the School Department. THE BOARD OFPUDLIC CIIAR1TIE3. A communication from President Kane, of the Board of Publio Charities, asking for an investigation by the Legislature of the differ ences between him and his associates on the board, has been presented to the Legislature, and we hope that it will receive proper con sideration. There is a radical difference of opinion between General Kane and the other members of the board as to the proper method of executing the important and re sponsible duties entrusted to them, and un fortunately these differences have led to con siderable harsh language, which should have been avoided if possible. The two opposing foroes in the board both insist earnestly that they are in the right, and present faots and figures to prove the positions they taKe. It is very possible that both may be in a measure right and wrong at the same time, and as it is cer tain that the efficiency of the board is seriously impaired if not altogether destroyed by the present unfortunate differences, the proper course for the Legislature to adopt is to give all sides a fair hearing and then to de cide impartially upon the merits and demerits of the various matters in whichthey are antagonistic We believe that the members of the Board of Publio Charities, without exception, are inspired with an earnest desire to carry out ia the most perfect manner possible the objects for whieh the board was created, and it is therefore the more unfor tunate that the present unhappy state of affairs should exist. General Kane claims Le can prove by facts and figures that he is in the right, and he should be allowed an opportunity to do so, the other members of the board be'Bg accorded likewise a fair op portunity to demonstrate the correctness of their views. Considering the high standing of all the members of the botrd, this will be a very proper method of settling the quarrel between General Kane and his associates, and it should teceive the attention it deserves from the Legislature. cknatou itr.YNOMta. (Jrnrrnl Joupph J. Itrynolil ftlrcteil Hpnntor tram Tn-llli Public Bervlcea-A Content Over the Ment. The Legislature of Texas has seen fit to pre sent the Benato of the Forty- second Congress with the novelty of a contested eoat. The re construction of the Stale was fully completed In March, 1870, and immediately thereafter the Senators and Representatives elected were admitted to their seals. Hon. Morgan C. Hamilton 7s elected Senator for the term of six years commencing March 4. 1871, as well as for the remainder of the term ending on that day. It is now claimed ty his opponents that his election for the long term was illegal, and in this opinion the Legislature of Texas appears to have coincided, by going through the pro cess, on January 21, of electing another person for this term. The law regu lating the election of Senators provides that the Legislature of each State chosen next preceding the expiration of the term for which any Senator was chosen, shall proceed, on the second Tuesday after its organization, to the election of a Senator to fill the vacancy about to occur. When the reconstructed Legislature of Texas met last winter, it therefore pro ceeded to elect a Senator for the vacancy to oceur on March 4, 1871. as well as for the un expired terms, and, as there has been no elec tion of a Legislature in the State since that time, its action would seem to have been in accordance with the forms of tho law. The Legislature of Mississippi last winter acted in similar manner, by electing Governor James L. Alcorn to the Senate for tho term commencing March 4, 1871, at the same time that Revels was elected for the short term. Wbat action the Senate will take in the contest over the Texas scat remains to te seen. Tho election of a successor to Senator Hamil ton took place on January 24. In tho Senate General Joseph J. Reynolds received 16 votes, to 11 cast for four different opponents. In the House General Reynolds received 48 votes to 25 in opposition. The nomination of General Rey nolds by the Republican caucus took place on the previous evening. On the first ballot he re ceived but 7 votes out of a total of 58, and his nomination iras not secured until eight or ten unsuccessful ballotings had been held. General Reynolds Is a native of Kentucky, and is now about fifty years of ago. In early life he removed to Indiana, and was appointed a cadet at the West Point Military Academy from that State in 1839. On July 1, 1843, he was breveted a second lieutenant in tho 4th Artillery, and in May, 1846, transferred to the 3d Artillery, being promoted in March, 1817, to a first lieutenauty. From August, 1316, to August, 1847, he acted as an assistant Professor of Ethics at the Military Academy; from 1847 to 1849, as Profesf or of Natural and Experimental Philoso phy; and from the last date to February, 1857, as an assistant professor. He then re signed and retired from the military service. He re-entered the Eervice, however, on the outbreak of the war, and served throughout the struggle with distinction, at first as a brigadier general, and subsequently as a major-general of volunteers. His princlpM eervice was with the Army of the Cumberland, In which he served as a division commander, taking a prominent part in tho battle of Chlckamauga. At the dose of hostilities he re-entered the regular service, being commissioned colonel of the 26th Infantry on July 28, 1866, and breveted a major-general on March 2, 1867. After holding a command in the Northwest General Reynolds wa, on July 28, 1868, assigned to the command of the Fifth Military Di.-trict, consisting of the State of Texas only, with bis headquarters at Austin. He was relieved of this command on November 4th fol lowing, but again assigned to it as successor of General Canby, on March 5, 1869, immediately after the inauguration of President Grant. General Reynolds assumed his command on April 8th, and the reconstruction process pro ceeded quietly and successfully under his super vision, until it was completed by the restoration of Texas to representation in Congress in March, 1870. At the time of tho election of Senators, General Reynolds was urged to follow the example of General Ames in Mississippi, and consent to represent the State in the Senate, but in February, 1870, declined the proffered honor, on the ground that his residence of three years In the State had been iu the capacity of a mili tary officer, and that his convictions of right and sense of propriety precluded the acceptance of any political office at that time and under the peculiar circumstances then existing. It is not yet known what course he will pursue, now that he has been actually elected a Senator, but it would seem that consistency demanded another refosal of the Senatorship. Letters received in Baltimore from Colonel Jerome Patterson Bonaparte, elded son of the late Jerome Bonaparte, of that city, said that on the 10th of December he was at Comberrie, about five miles from Paris, on the railroad to Versailles. The Baltimore American says a letter was received there last week representing that a Major Patterson, of Baltimore, connected with the Bonaparte family, was a prisoner of war at Brunswick, Germany.
