THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, SATUKDaI , MAKCil 11, 181. v A W f TO THE PEOPLE. The District Atteraev-mesee A. Drple, The period la approaching when It becomes neces sary to nominate and elect some eligible candidate the Important office 'District Attorney for the and county of rtiilaaelphla, and although I pro- bably have no more Interest In the question tha any other patriotic citizen, I take leare to express my views In relation to It, In the hope that they Bay ao far awaken public sentiment in regard to it ai may lead to such action as will be commensurate with the importance of the subject. I shall not at tempt in doing se to dictate to others who are as well able to judge as myself, or to con demn others who bappen to disagree with my suggestions, my main object being to Invite the attention of my fellow-cltlzena to a fair, full, and timely consideration of the vital Importance to the community of a judicious and dis passionate selection for this moat Important and lucrative position. I am not a party politician. I an fettered to no faotlon. I am not disposed to abuse one man or one set of men, or to throw them into the shade merely to brighten the claims of those whom I should prefer. This would be un generous, and pf rhaps unjust, and possibly tend to arouse invidious and acrimonious feeling, which la always unfavorable to the fair and Judicious ex erclse of political opinions. Let us then calmly In quire what are the indispensable requisites of a suc cessful candidate for the office referred to. It is, as we have said, rightly considered a post of great power and dignity, and the reputation of the Incumbent must correspond with its require ments and character, and be beyond reproach, lie must be a gentleman we don't mean by this he must be rich or gay or fashionable, but that he must have the Instincts and manners of a gentle man, even if he were in poverty or rags, we know with some persons this Is a frightful word; It smacks or aristocracy and men cry out against it, yet let mo tell you It should be an Ingredient of the fitness for oftlce that should never be lost sight of. A gentleman, it is true, is nothing without legal and moral competency but mere competency Is much Impaired by a want of gentility, or call It, If yon please, urbanity or civility. If a magistrate is a rufflan, the criminal arraigned before him seems to share in his nature and only differs in his place. The Prosecuting Attorney should keep his hands and his skirts clear from the Influence of all those who are notorious violators of the laws, such as gamesters, policy-dealers, ballot-stuffers, brawlers, and disturbers of the peace. He should te a consistent member of the party which he repre sents; but in the duties of bis office he should know no party and be Influenced by no political prejudices or predilections. He Is the representative of justice, and bis robes of office must be unstained, his repu tation untainted, and his impartiality unsuspected. He must not compromise his dignity and place by uniting with the stool-pigeons, deectttves, or mere emissaries of Justice, who always take more charac ter from him than they can ever impart to him, and thereby weaken the energies and destroy the purity and symmetry of Judicial proceedings. In addition to those q i allocations, he should be a lawyer, of course, not a pettifogger, but a scientific, practical lawyer. . Now whom should we nominate possessing these recommendations? While speaking of those who are eminently qualified, it must not be supposed that I would disparage other aspirants, but to leave the estimate of their merits to those who best know them and are best enabled to determine upon their absolute or comparative ability. In my view, then, and with this explanation of my purpose, It may be said there is one gentleman whose eligibility, founded upon the requirements already stated, would seem to be unquestionable. A fine scholar, an accomplished lawyer, a philanthropist, one of the founders of the Republican party, and who, If we remember rightly, was formerly placed In nomi nation before the Republican convention for this very office, and received nearly a majority of votes on the first ballot we refer to Moses A. Dropsle, Esq. To those who are Intimate with Mr. Dropsle these commendations are perhaps not as important as to others, but still It may not be Improper, we trust, to refer to them. Remember, this argument In bis favor does not de pend upon defaming or decrying his competitors; the man who builds his hope of success upon the want of merit in his adversaries merely, Instead of competency in himself, relies upon a very Insecure basis, when be appeals to the favor of a Judicious and Intelligent community. We need scarcely add In behalf of the gentleman whose name is thus pre sented that be is of a humane, fearless, and exemplary moral reputation, and If elected to the office of District Attorney will reflect honor upon the station and confer a lasting benefit upon the people. Now, In common with this subject, It may not be amiss to remark that the influence and power of the District Attorney, while It materially affects the community at large, has a still more direct effect upon the character, conduct, and efficiency of the members of the bar practising In the criminal court. There was a time when such men as Lewis, Ser geant, Blnney, Ingersoll, Dallas, and Rawle, and. Indeed, all the magnates of the profession, flourished in the halls of the Court of Oyer and Terminer, and Imparted to criminal Jurisprudence all the dignity, learning, and fame that contributed to render the courts the cynosure of the entire country. Even the Supreme Court itself at this time does not exhibit that becoming decorum, respect, aad gravity that pervaded althat time what were called the iaf erlor tribunals of justice. Now, alas! how changed! Why changed? Bo- cause there is a lack of system, a lack of courtesy and gentility, for which are substituted, by a hurry, ekurry mode of doing bustness, Pompei quam pujnn uptior. This is partly attributable, no doubt, to the large increase of a heterogeneous population, and the proportionate Increase and variety of trials, and the wretched want of accommodation In the rooms appropriated to Justice. The judges are not to be censured: their deportment 1b becoming; they can- sot be bellowing out to the criers or tipstaves to keep order. The difference between the deportment now and formerly is that between a rowdy mob and a refined drawing-room. Instead of teaching others by example, and Inspiring them with respect for the dignity of tne place, lawyers and clients, prose cutors and criminals, witnesses and Jurors, are all jumbled together, and seem perfectly satisfied with this constrained association. These things should certainly be amended, and the amending and con trolling power should be exercised by the District Attorney, standing aa he does between the judiciary and the public.

It has come to the know. ledge of Senator Sumner that some time afro the British Minister.

It is understood mat tnis is wnat Mr. Morton re ferred to yesterday when he denied that San Tru mlngo had anything to do with the removal of Mr. Sumner, and that there were other questions con nected with foreign affairs which made it necessajy.

THE MEDICAL PRO PERTIES OF TARo The pine tree has long been known to pos sess valuable naedical properties. For pul monary diseases It is doubtful whether any medy has as yet been discovered equal to . It seems to change and renew the very structure on which it acts, and to infuse into the system an indescribable power equal to the natural power before disease had even taken hold of the body, so as to make, as it were, an entirely new tissue, and to give a newness of life and energy which one who has been sick a long time knows the value of ut cannot fully describe. The great objec tion, however, to all tar preparations has been their unpleasant taste, and consequent lia bility to Bickness and nauseate the stomaoh. We have before ns, however, a preparation of the kind referred to, which obviates all these objections, and is as agreeable to the palate as it is valuable in the cure of disease. We mean "Dr. Wishart's Pine Tree Tar Cordial," real, genuine, bona fide medicinal oordiaL distilled from the pine tree by a prooesa known only to the Doctor himself, the sale and popularity of which are only equalled the amount of suffering it has relieved, and the numberof diseases it is bo well oaloulated to effectually cure. In the Pine Tree Tar Cordial the Invalid may be sure he has a remedy of very extraordinary power for throat and lung affections, and when taken In con junction with the "Great American Dyspepsia Pills," an infallible cure for dyspepsia, liver oomplaint, sick headache, and the many ail ments arising from a disordered state of the liver and digestive organs. In our sphere as publishers we feel some degree of cautiousness In what we reoommend to our readers, but when we (now of any thing of value to the publics we shall not hesi tate to make it known through our oolumns. We advise those of our readers who are suffer ing from dyspepsia, etc., to give Dr. Wishart'a celebrated remedies a trial. A medical expert, holding honorable eolle giate diplomas, devotes his entire time to the examination of patients at the office parlors. Associated with him are three consulting phy sicians of acknowledged eminence, whose ser vices are given to the public free of charge. This opportunity is offered by no other In stitution in the country. Thousands of certificates of absolute cure. (when all else failed to afford relief), aa wll as recommendatory letters without number, have been received by Dr. Wishart, the pro prietor, attesting the uniform success with which they have been employed. Many of said letters are from the highest sources, in cluding eminent statesmen, Governors, State judges, clergymen, etc. men blow to be con vinced, prejudiced perhaps at first, but feel ing themselves under a sense of duty bound to tell the Doctor what they had done for them and to recommend them to others. The Great American Dyspepsia Pills and Pine Tree Tar Cordial are sold by all druggists throughout the worli. They can also be obtained at Dr. WISHAJiT'S GREAT FAMILY MEDICINE STORE, No. 232 North SECOND Street, Philadelphia, where a successful piactising physician can be consulted each day, free of charge.
