THE COLLEGTORSniP.
The President has appointed Hon. John 'W.
Forney Collector of the port of Philadelphia.
Mr. Forney has accepted, contrary to the
expectation of all his friends, and the Senate
will undoubtedly confirm the appointment.
If this were merely a question of proriding a
thoroughly competent Collector for the port
of Philadelphia the appointment of Mr.
Forney weuld call for nothing but congratu
lations. But, unfortunately for the Presi
dent at least, there are other considerations
involved, which cannot be overlooked by
those who see in the blundering policy ef the
administration one of the greatest dangers,
not only to the Republican party, but to the
nation at large. Two years of the worst pos
sible mistakes in the distribution of the
Federal patronage have not taught the Presi
dent wisdom, and he blunders as badly now
as he did when he first went into effioe.
That the new Collector will perform the da
ties of his offioe in an eminently satisfactory
manner is certain, and we are safe in saying
that hia appointment will give Batisfaotion to
every one except, perhaps, to the individual
most interested himself. Mr. Forney is a
man of very great ability, and as a politician
and an editor he has labored earnestly for the
success of the Republican party. The Presi
dent could scaroely have fixed upon a better
person to succeed Mr. Moore, and yet the
acceptance of the Colleotorship of the port of
Philadelphia does Mr. Forney more credit
than hia appointment does the President.
Few men in the Republican party have
worked harder for it than Mr. Forney, and
few have deserved more liberal rewards at
the hands of those who dispense re
wards and honors at Washington. That the
Colleotorship of the port of Philadelphia is an
offics that will confer honor npon the gentle
man who has accepted it few men in or out
of the Republican party will be willing to
admit, and it must be confessed that Mr. For
ney would have consulted his own dignity more
if he had refused any favors at the hands of
the administration unless they were in some
degree proportionate to his personal and
political deserts. When President Grant went
into office two years ago, Mr. Forney was
prominently mentioned as likely to obtain a
Cabinet position, or at least one of the most
desirable of the foreign mission. He was
not only one of the foremost men in the Re
publican party, but he had been an ardent
advocate of the election of Grant npon the
stump and in the columns of his two influen
tial papers. The President, however, distri
buted the valuable offices in his gift aooording
to a plan of his own, and Mr. Forney was appa
rently never even thought of. For two years the
President has refused to be governed by the
advice of others, and has obstinately persisted
in conferring the honors in his gift npon men
who can give no influence to his administra
tion and who can do nothing to
consolidate the strength of the Republican
party. Suddenly he appears to have awa
kened to the fact that there are disoordant
elements in the party which elected him,
and which he hopes will re-elect him, and
he is now casting about to win some of the
real working Republicans to his support.
The criticisms which he has reoeived from
every Republican journal in Philadelphia
have not been pleasant, and the brilliant
idea has ocourred to him that it would per
haps be as well to gain some newspaper
support in this vicinity by conciliating lead
ing journalists. . The North American was
captured by the appointment of Colonel
MoMiohael as Solioitor of Internal Revenue,
and now it is proposed to make the Prest
an out-and-out administration organ by re
questing Mr. Forney to accept, not the
Secretaryship of State or the mission to Eng
land, but the Collectorship of the port of
Philadelphia. The President must, indeed,
think that the leading men of the Republi
can party are for sale cheap, if he hopes
to strengthen himself in this city and State,
and to reconcile the contending factions of
the party, in this fashion. We tad hoped
that Mr. Forney, for his own sake and for
the credit of - the profession of journal
ism, would have refused this paltry at
tempt to deprive him of his independence
as a critio of the doings of the administra
tion. The Pres$ has spoken out in very
plain terms on the Saa Domingo . job and the
Sumner affair, and it should be in a position
to speak with equal plainness in the future, if
there should be oocasion to do so. In fact,
no journalist should compromise his inde
pendence by accepting office, but certainly a
politician and editor of Mr. Forney's standing,
who has aspired to a Cabinet position, should
not lower his dignity by allowing the
President to put him off with the Philadel
phia Collectorship. So far from such an ap.
pointment being an honor, it is, tinder all
the circumstances of the case, a degradation
whioh a man of Mr. Forney's sensitiveness
must 1 f eel keenly. That 'a "newspaper
or the . influence or the Preia can
be converted into an administration
organ at such a cheap rate is not com
plimentary to the profession of journalism:
and it shows that, while the President is
anxious to gain newspaper support, he places
ratur a singular valuation upon it. Mr.
Forney resigned his position as Secretary of
the HenaU ja order that he might criticize
President Johnson freely.'anil it would have
gratified bis best friends if he had din- j
played an equal amount of independence in
the present instance. President Grant's
performances need criticism ' although
perhaps of another kind just as
much as did (hose of Johnson,
and the Prtit has hitherto displayed no hesi
tation in speaking out boldly when there was
oocasion for it. It will be a real misfortune
both to the President and to the Republican
party if the faot that its editor is Colleotor of
the port of Philadelphia should Interfere
with its independent utterances in the future:
for the next two years are likely to be trying
ones for the Republican party, and plain
speaking on the part of the newspapers will
be more than ever needed.
Taking all the facts of the case into consi
deration, this appointment cannot be consi
dered other than as an insult to Mr. Forney
an insuH that the President would have been
slow to offer if he had the slightest idea how
to manage men. It Is as bad a blunder aa
any he has mide in the distribution of offices
since he has been in the Executive chair; and
Mr. Forney's acceptance, prompted doubtless
as it was by a sinoere desire to aid the admin
istration in getting fairly npon its feet again
before the next Presidential campaign begins,
does him more credit than the appointment
does the President.
AN APOLOGY TO MIL IIAOER.
Mr. Haoeb must go off the black list, ne
yesterday made a personal explanation in the
House of Representatives to the effect that
he had always been opposed to the commis
sion bills, and that he had been misrepre
sented by The Evening) Teleobaph. Of
course, we believe Mr. Hager, and apologize
most sincerely for having placed him in a
false position, and for having done anything
to damage his future political prospects.
This is the third apology of this kind we have
been compelled to make, and if any of the
other members of the Committee on Munici
pal Corporations have been misrepresented
in our columns, we would be pleased to have
them speak at once, and all at once, so that
we may save time, space, and printer's ink
by making a single apology do for
the whole batch. The members of the
committee who did not sign Mr. Johnston's
negative report, and who have not
explained their position with regard to
the commission bills, are Messrs. Parsons,
Duffy, Wiley, Lamon, Mooney, Meek, and
McGowan. The matter is now getting nar
rowed down to a fine point, and it seems
scarcely possible but that some of the above
named gentlemen did ; advocate the bills, and
did endeavor to have them reported favorably
to the House, so that a simple majority might
act upon them. The original constitution of
the committee was sixteen, and it was cer
tainly believed at Harrisburg that the majo
rity of this number were in favor of the bills
it was said that the committee stood ten in
favor and six against for Speaker Webb
thought it necessary to add six new members
to the committee in order to secure a nega
tive report. Now, there were ten members
who did not sign Mr. Johnstons nega
tive report, which was at least
a strong piece of circumstantial evidence
in favor of the correctness of
the rumor which prevailed previous to "the
enlargement of the committee. Three of these
ten have denied that they were in favor of
the bills, which would have made the original
committee stand nine opposed and seven in
favor of the bills. If this was the actual
situation, why was it necessary for Speaker
Webb to add six new members to the com
mittee in order to obtain a negative report ?
Will any member of the House or of the
Committee on Municipal Corporations oblige
the citizens of Philadelphia by making an ex
planation, personal or otherwise, npon this
knotty point?
THE TAX ON TEA AND COFFEE.
A bemonstbance from the American Free-
trade League against the repeal of the duty
on tea and eoffee was presented in both
branches of Congress yesterday. The foes of
American industry clearly display their disre
gard of the interests of the masses in thus
opposing the abrogation of duties upon pro
ducts which are not produced in this
country. The point aimed at
by the free-traders is to promote the industries
of rival nations by having the duties on iron
and cotton and woollen goods reduced, while
they wish to retain the duties on tea and
coffee, which are necessarily an inevitable tax
on the consumer. Even the old Democratic
party favored incidental protection, but the
free-trade modern Democracy are striving to
eliminate every semblance of protection from
the tariff, and to adjust the imposts in suoh a
manner as will be at onoe most burdensome
to the workingmen and women of the land.
and render them the slightest possible amount
of incidental benefit.
Vice-Pbesident Colfax yesterday gave his
casting vote in the Senate in opposition to a
consideration at the present session of the
question of repealing the income tax.
majority of both houses are unquestionably
in favor of doing away with this iniquitous
tax, and in half an hour the whole thing
could be disposed of. The assessors though
out the country have just commenced their
labors for the year, but not a cent has yet
been paid, and it is not too laie to put a stop
to the whole business. Mr. Colfax, however,
has thrown himself into the breach, and
through his timely interference the Western
farmers have gained another viotory. Mr,
Colfax, we believe, has announced Lis inten
tion of retiring from publio life at the end of
his term as Vice-President, and he is there
fore at liberty to defy the people and ignore
their wishes. -
i Somebody in the lower branch of the Legis.
lature has engaged in the dignified work of
reporting a bill to prohibit newsboys from
jumping on railway cars while they are in
motion. After peace and order are restored
in the Commonwealth by the suppression of
such a frightful evil, it is to be Jioped that
some other equally important measure miy
be brought np for consideration.
The Despatches from France indicate that
M. Thieri will be vigorously sustained by the
provinces, and thus enabled to resist the
revolutionary madcaps of Paris. The
animus of the latter is indloated by the
complaint of their organ that rural Influence
predominates in the Frenoh Chambers, and
by the earnestness with which it contends
that Paris must be the capital of Franoe.
The best hope of Republicanism and of libe
ral and constitutional government is based
on the complete triumph of M. Thiers in the
present controversy; and if, after achieving
such a victory, he acts wisely, honestly, and
patriotically, he will render inestimable service
to his unhappy country.
Governor IIolden, of North Carolina, has
been convioted on eight articles of impeach
ment, and an order has been passed remov
ing him from offioe. More than two-thirds
of the judges in this case were Conservative
Senators, but on several articles foar or five
Republicans voted with them, so that there
seems to be good reason for believing that
llolden was guilty of improper acts. Like a
number of other Southern Republicans, he
has brought disgrace and defeat upon the
Republican party by his personal misde
meanors; and he has thus rendered greater
incidental Bervice to the Southern Democracy
than a whole army of their rebel politicians.
senatob bumner has been invites to a
banquet by a number of his personal and
political friends in this city, and in answer to
the letter of invitation he has written that he
will be compelled to decline. The publio will
thus lose an oration from Mr. Snmner on the
question of his removal from the Foreign
Relations Committee of the Senate, as he
would undoubtedly have been expected to
speak upon this subject if the banquet had
takt n place.
Sturdy Ben Wade settles all the doubts
arising from the allegation that some of the
Dominicans are hostile to annexation by de
nouncing their leader, Cabral, as a "chioken-
thief." This aocusation is, of course, con
clusive; and chicken-thieves of all colors,
countries, and raoes who presume to question
the wisdom of any policy favored by the Ame
rican Government should note how readily
their opposition can be extinguished.
