THE REPUBLICAN STATE CON
VENTION. A Republican State Convention meets at
Ilarrisburg to-day to nominate candidates for
Auditor-General and Surveyor-General and to
construct a platform for the fall campaign.
The offices are in' themselves of no political
significance, as a clear-headed and honest
Democrat might make as good an Anditor or
Surveyor as a Republican, and the signifi
cance of the October State election lies in the
f aot that it will be popularly considered a test
of partisan strength, and indicative of
the "probable action of Pennsylvania
in the residential election of 1872. The
Democracy have grown fearfully hungry dur
ing their prolonged exclusion from national
power; their old wheel-horses and favorites,
except those who have the good fortune to be
quartered on rich local treasuries like that of
Tammany, are well-nigh famished; and they
have made up their minds to win
in the grand Presidential fight, if any
real or pretended sacrifice of principle,
or any concession to that idol of
over-greedy ppoils-hunters, availability, can
insure a triumph. By way of preparing for
the future they will probably make careful
nominations at the State Convention they are
to hold a week hence, and then work like
beavers to secure the election of their
"standard-bearers." As the Republicans take
the initiative in the conflict, it behooves them
to consider well its probable con
tingencies, and to wisely arrange its
preliminaries. Comparatively little trouble
is apprehended. The ' only Pennsylvanian
named as a rival to Grant for the succession,
tbe illustrious Geary, formally declined the
honor of a Presidential nomination when it
was tendered last night by one of his enthu
siastic admirers, and as his expressed wish to
"retire lo privacy" after the completion of
his Gubernatorial term is likely to be uni
versally respected by his admiring fellow
citizens, there is no apparent danger of Penn
sylvania hunting np any other favorite
son to become a direct antagonist to Grant.
'Whether his administration will be fully and
cordially indorsed remains to be seen, but
Senator Scott publicly expressed an earnest
hope last night that "the convention would
heartily indorse Congress and the whole Re
publican administration;" and it is perhaps
bo ordered by the wire-pullers. One of the
main points remaining unadjusted is the de
termination of the grave question of who
shall be chairman of the Republican State
Central Committee; and if the campaign
waxes hot and furious, its issue willjdopend
much more upon the selection of this chair
man than upon the nomination of candidates,
important political battles in this State hav
ing been repeatedly won or lost by the effi
ciency or the incompetency of the appointed
leaders of its partisan armies.
F.EM ALE IN TER VIE WERS.
There is one thing that the Wild Woman
really can do. This was some time a para
dox, but now the ge gives it proof. She
can become a first-class interviewer. Indeed,
she is one already by nature. From the ear
liest times in which we have any account of
her, a certain desire fop the acquisition of
knowledge of a personal nature, combined
with nncommon pertinacity in attaining her
end, seem to have characterized woman. This
instinct for we can call it nothing else has,
in want of a better term, been styled curiosity.
One of the profoundest secrets learned in
(his world is tbe folly of looking for reasons.
We do not know why this instinct is given to
women, and it is foolishness to seek to know.
As we accept, so to speak, the hump of the
camel, or the bloom of the peach, or the pre
posterous neck of tbe giraffe, so do we accept
this feminine peculiarity simply as a fact.
But, being a fact, we may fairly seek to
utilize it; and it does seem that the inter
viewing business gives females who are am
bitious for pnblio careers something to do
for which they are expressly fitted. Of
course we have a text, although it is intro
duced rather late in the disoourse. It ap
pears that a lady reporter of the World called
to see Mrs. Linooln and her son upon their
arrival in New York a few days since.
Although Mrs. Lincoln had lived abroad so
long, she has not lost sight of some of the
distinguishing marks of American journalism,
and at the outset of the interview expressed
her decided distaste to "getting into t'ae
newspapers." But the Word female was not
to be deterred by any such flimsy objection
as that. She cross-examined Mrs. Linooln in
a style that won d have done credit to a
criminal lawyer, nor did she let
np until the poor woman
withdrew from the room, "entirely
too ill," as the reporter naively remarks, "to
talk any more." Neither did the World
female then take her own leave and proceed
to elaborate her copious notes. The mother
vanquished, there yet remained the son.
That young gentleman, we are told, did not
relish the idea of talking about his private
ooncerns to a stranger and for the public ear,
but there was no escape for him. The fol
lowing are a few of the questions put to Mr.
Lincoln by this indefatigable young woman.
In accordance with Mr Lincoln's desire, we
will not give his answers except so far as is
necessary to keep np the show of a conversa
tion: l4idy Reporter You have been studying in Ger
ILany, have you not?
Mr. Lincoln Yea, etc.
L. B. Did you nnd that tbe Germans spoke well
ol your lather Y
Mr. L. Yef, etc.
L. U How about your mother's pension? does
she Intend to try ta get it now V
Mr. L. I don't know. etc.
L. K. Then sue will probably never try to get it
ittluf
.Mr. L. I don't Know.
L. v It has ben rumored that your mother in
tends nmirjiug aain. t u tliul true f
And so on. The only uncertainty we feel
is at the elope, when we road "at thin point
the reporter withdrew." We felt sure that
finally the Lincolns would go, leaving the
reporter mistress of the field. ' But breathes
there the man who could have a9ked these
questions ? Could the Count Johannes, could
the great Train himself, have done it ? It is
well beknown that what man lacks is assu
rance; that is his weak ' spot, his one great
failing. Almost any man would have left the
house if Mrs. Lincoln had said he had talked
her sick, but there is a sort of divine persist
ence about woman which will lead her
to talk her victim not only sick, but
blind and deaf and dumb to boot,
if the path of duty seems to lie that
way. And ho we say that there is at last a
"vocation" opened to the female of the
woman's rights pattern. We do not pretend
that this work is on as high a Plane (is not
that the word?) as the reformers demand, or
that it can altogether satisfy the Dumb Yearn
ings (the phrase is familiar it must be cor
rect) of which we read so much; but it at
least opens a practicable field, and one which
the Tyrant Man cannot pretend to dispute
with her.
Senator Cornells bill for submitting the
question of abolishing or continuing tha
Building Commission to a popular vote next
October was yesterday referred by the House
to tbe Committee on Municipal Corporations.
This action was taken after considerable dis
cussion as to the propriety of referring it to
he Judiciary Committee and to a committee
of the Philadelphia members, and it may be
considered as a quiet method of giving a death
blow to this the last project of the anti-Penn
Square party to defeat the erection of the
pnblio buildings upon the .site selected by
the people of Philadelphia. The partisans of
the anti-Penn Square party in the House
did their best to keep the bill out of the
hands of the Committee on Municipal Cor
porations, and its reference to that committee
was evidently considered upon all sides as
equivalent to its defeat. It is to be hoped
that the committee will now take the only
proper action, and report the bill with a nega
tive recommendation, and thus give the
Washington Square property-holders to under
stand that, so far as the Legislature is con
cerned, no impediments will be thrown in tho
way of the commission in their efforts to
execute the will of the people; and then there
will be some chance that the much-needod
buildings will finally be erected upon the
chosen site, in spite of the intrigues of the
anti-Penn Squareites.
The State Senate, for some . inexplicable
reason, is opposed to giving the people of
Philadelphia an opportunity to purify their
delegate elections by throwing around them
the restraints of law. While the correctness
of the principle is admitted by the passage of
a bill authorizing its application to the city
of Lancaster, efforts are being made to pre
vent our citizens from enjoying its benefits.
The result of this discrimination, if persisted
in, will be a reversal of the old description
of the two cities. It was said, long ago, that
Philadelphia was the best governed and Lan
caster the worst governed city of the country;
but if Lancaster is to have fair and decent
delegate elections, and Philadelphia is to re
main the prey of political bummerism, it will
not be singular if Lancaster becomes the best
and Philadelphia decidedly the worst governed
city of the State.
A cable telegram states that the destruc
tion of life and property by the bombard
ment of the American quarter of Paris yes
terday was fearful. We regret that any clas3
of American citizens, at home or abroad,
bhould be the victims of calamity; but there
is no class less deserving of sympathy than
those who voluntary expatriate themselves,
during a long series of years, to seek selfish
enjoyment in a luxurious foreign city. It
has passed into a proverb that a portion of
rich Americans habitually regard Paris as an
Elysium; but the scenes of the last few
months, winding np with a bombardment of
their favorite ' quarter, has essentially modi
fied this opinion, and at this moment Paris
must be, to them, the antipodes of an
Elysium.
THE AUDITOR. GENERALSHIP.
Dr. David Stautou, the Probable Republic
tuu Candidate.
A special despatch from llarrlsburgr, ia our
second edition, states that in all probability Dr.
David Stanton will receive the nomination for
Auditor-General from the Republican State Con
vention now in session.
Dr. Stanton is a son of the late Dr. Benjamin
Stanton, of Ohio, and a nephew of the late
Secretary Stanton, to whom he bears a striking
resemblance. He was born In and, after
studying medicine, and graduating at the Cleve
land Medical College and tbe University of
Pennsylvania, removed, at the age of twenty
one, to New Brighton, Beaver county, where he
commenced the practice of medicine, and has
continued to reside In August, 1801, he en
tered the army as surgeon of the 1st Pennsyl
vania Cavalry, and was connected with the
Army of the Potomac until promoted to the
post of surgeon of United States Volunteers, in
November, 18C2, from which date until he re
signed, in December, 18(55, he acted as Superin
tendent of Hospitals, aud as assistant and act
ing Medical Director of the Northern Depart
ment, on the staffs of General Helutzelmau and
Hooker. In 1801 he was breveted lieutenant
colonel, aud in 1805 was made brevet colouel.
Dr. Stanton Is of Quaker descent, and was
naturally an abolitionist of the old school, In
the times when it was not popular to embrace
such 6entiments. He has never held any pub
lic office, but is at present Chairman of the
Beaver County Republican Committee.
AS0T11ER SHATTrKEU MONUAIEXT.
The Dcktructiou of the Vcudome Coluiau
at Paris.
The Communists, or Red Republicans, of
Purls, lu their Insane raid upon all memorials of
the empire, have just added to their crimes
against civilization ny the destruction of the
famous column in the Place Yrndome, which
has been for over fifty years one of the art glo
ries of the world. This triumph il monument
was erected in 1S06 by the Emperor Napoleon I
in commemoration of the success of the French
armies. The column was of the Tuscan order,
and copied after Trajan's Pillar at Uoin-". Its
height was 135 feet, and Its clrcumfereuce at the
base 30 feet. The base was 21 feet high and 20
feet square. Tho column was covered with bas
reliefs in bronze, composed of 270 plates made
out of 1200 pieces of cannon taken from the
Russians and Austrlans, representing the vic
tories of the French armies in the German cam
paign of 1805. There were over 2000 figures,
each three feet in height, in these bas-reliefs,
and the total weight of metal was about 300,000
pounds. The column was surmounted by a
colossal bronze statue of Napoleon I, eleven
feet high. A statue of the emperor was
hurled to tue ground by the mob of
1814, but France was not satisfied until
a finer one was placed upon the summit.
The whole cost of the Vendome Column was
about 1300,000, exclusive of the captured mate
rial which made so large a part of it. Tbe best
view of Paris was obtained from its summit, and
It was one of the first points of interest visited
by travellers. The cheap rage of the mob has
again cost Paris dear. Wbat is to be the next
act of vandalism?
