THURSDAY, MAY 25, 1871.
tr Thk Evening: Telegraph, from Its original
establishment, has been In the receipt ol telegra
phic news from the New York Associated Press,
which consists of the Tribune, Times, Herald,
World, Sun, Journal of Commerce, Evening rout,
Commercial Advertiser, and Evening Express. The
success which has attended onr enterprise Is, In
Itself, a sufficient evidence of the freshness, full
ness, and reliability of the news which we have
received from this source. In March, 1ST0, we
entered Into a special contract by which Thk
Evening Telegraph has the exclusive use of the
news furnished in the afternoon by the Associated
Press to its own members, the Sorth American, In
quirer. Ledger, Press, Age, Record, and German Demo
crat, of this city, and the leading Journals of the East,
North, West, and South; and hereafter Thb Telb-
GRAfH will be the only evening paper published in this
tity In which the afternoon despatches of the Asso
ciated Press will appear.
rwThe earliest regular edition of the Thb
Evening Telegraph goes to press at 1 o'clock,
and the subsequent regular editions at sjtf, 8, and
4jtf. Whenever there Is important news of the com
plications In Europe, extra editions will be Issued
after this hour, and before the regular time for the
early edition.
TIIE DEMOCRATIC STATE CONVEN
TION. When men are very hungry they cease to be
choice in their diet. They do not insist upon
moshroomed-beefsteak breakfasts and cham
pagne suppers, but greedily devour whatever
aliment kind chance may furnish, even if it is as
repulsive as lizards or rattlesnakes. Prompted
by this ravenous spirit, the oinoe-hunting
portion of the Demooracy of Pennsylvania,
v.ho are nearly famished by their protracted
exclusion from power, manifested at their
convention yesterday a determination to re
gain the loaves and fishes of political emolu
ment at any price. Their true principles and
predilections were ignored when they nomina
ted two soldier candidates and threw out what
nearly half the convention was polite enough
to consider "a bait for the nigger vote; but
hunger overcame their Bcruples. Their faith
ful wheel-horses and their true creed were
offered up as sacrifices upon the altar of
availability, and the Democracy are hoping
that their ticket may receive a sufficient num
ber of votes oast for it, under a false impres
sion of their real charaoter, aims, and pur
poses, to secure a triumph which would un
questionably be denied if the faith that ani
mates a very large proportion of their organi
zation was publicly proclaimed. If General
MoGandless is sincerely honored by
a majority of the Democratic party of Penn
sylvania for any portion of this military re
cord, it is only that part which consists of his
petulant letter to the Secretary of War,
made some months before the Rebellion
was finally subdued, in which he declined
brigadier-general's commission, and expressed
the opinion that the true position of a citizen
was at home. If all his military associates
had shared this belief, the history of the last
seven years would have been fearfully re
versed, and the final triumph would have been
reserved for Lee instead of Grant, and for the
Confederacy instead of the Republic.
It is refreshing to find the Democracy
picking out soldiers for its nominees, and re
solving that the constitutional amendments
are all binding and that repudiation mast be
repudiated; but confidence in the sincerity of
this action is sadly disturbed by the palpable
danger that it is only a new exhibition of the
hypocritical homage which vice habitually
pays to virtue. If the people wish to have
Republican principles maintained, they will
cot venture to entrust this task to pretended
converts who have only learned the sound
ness and justice of Republican doctrines by
repeated but vain efforts to combat them.
It was no easy task for the Democracy to
"flop over." Fifty-three delegates resisted to
the last the resolution recognizing the validity
of the amendments to the Constitution; and
if that favorite Democratic editor and orator,
Brick Pomeroy, bad been present, the anti-
repudiation plank would not have been
rmt into the platform without
K "
a struggle. But the Democracy want to win.
Their distinguished candidate for Auditor
General had modestly pointed out a path to
victory in his address to the Moyamensing
Association in which he urged the nomination
of men "against whose civil or military record
the tongue of slander dare not wag." He had
albO kindly advised them that "no animal but
an ass kicks a dead lion;" and the
veterans in a long struggle against freedom
bad been most painfully impressed with tbe
imperative necessity for a flank movement.
Another evidence of the prevalence of this
overruling determination to win at any price,
as well as by any means, was tfforded by the
enthusiasm awakened in the oonven
tion when Alderman SIoMallin,
the hero of the Fourth ward returns of 18(18,
nominated as chairman of tbe Demooratio
State Central Committee Senator Wallaae,
tbe hero of coffee-pot natnralization papers.
If such ' men can nave full away
in manipulating tbe election, it
will matter little who goes to the polls, who
stays at home, or how the Ivna fide votes are
cast. And we can only wonder that a con
vention which reserved its sincere enthusiasm
for McMuHin and Wallace had enwngh Lrazeu
ftuiac:;- to vot'T-aia vl the R-s'itrj law.
RATIFICATION OF THE TREATY.
Thk ratification of tbe Treaty of Washington,
without amendment, by the large vote of
CO to 12, in the Benate yesterday will, we are
sure, meet with the approbation of the best
judgment of the nation. As one of the
British Commissioners said at the banquet in
New York night before last, the treaty is not
what it would have been had it been prepared
exclusively by either the Cabinets of
London or of Washington, but,
as all such compacts must be, it
is the result of concessions on both sides.
At the same time it must be confessed that
the concessions made by the American Com
missioners are of comparatively small im
portance in comparison with those made by
the representatives of Great Britain. We
agree to submit the various points in contro
versy between the two nations to arbitration,
while the British concessions involve a com
plete back-down from the position assumed
by Earl Russell and his successors, and
award ns sentimental as well as ma
terial damages. Although the apology
is conveyed in a rather back-handed way, the
expressions of regret at the escape of the
Alabama, and the establishment of new rules
of international law to regulate such cases in
the future, with the important provision that
they be retrospective, cannot but be con
sidered as an apology, and as ample a one as
it is possible for us to obtain without a
war. This method of getting out
of a difllulty is peculiarly British,
and it reminds ns exceedingly of
the performances of the London Conference
which endorsed Russia's annulment of the
Black Sea treaty. The Russian Government
at an opportune moment announced its in
tention to no longer regard the bargain which
excluded its men-of-war from the Blaok Sea.
The English immediately began not only to
protest upon high moral grounds,
but to threaten war. Russia stood
firm, however; used as mild language
as possible, and readily consented
to Earl Granville's proposition for a confer
ence "without any foregone conclusions.
The proposition to discuss the matter "with
out any foregone conclusions" was satisfactory
to British pride, especially as Great Britain
was not in a position to go to war, and the
result of the conference was that Russia ob
tained all she wanted, as every one foresaw
she would do. It is not too much to say that
the Alabama controversy, and the prospect
that the United States would give aid
and comfort to Russia in the same fashion
that England did to the Southern Confede
racy, had a most powerful effect in preventing
a war with RusBia, and that the dread of a
fleet of Yankee Alabamas being launched
against British commerce was one good and
sufficient reason for non-interference in the
Franco-Prussian war. The events of the past
year profoundly impressed British statesmen
with an adequate idea of the importance of
arranging the difficulties with this country
at as early a day as possible, and upon almost
any terms that would not make Great Britain
ncucuious in tne eyes oi tne world, me re
sult of this anxiety to oome to terms with as
is the Treaty of Washington, which, taking
all things into consideration, is a fair and
honorable settlement of our international
difficulties that does credit to both parties to
it. Apart from the fact that the treaty pro
vides for a satisfactory adjustment of the Ala
bama claims and other points at issue between
the United States and Great Britain, it has a
value to the world at large, inasmuch as it
sets forth new and important principles of
international law, and furnishes an example
of two great nations arranging their differ
ences without a resort to arms. It establishes
a precedent that it is to be hoped other na
tions may oe inaucea to ioiiow, and as a
statesmanlike effort in the interests of peace,
it may fairly figure in the reoords of the year
1871 as an offset to the horrors of the Franco-
Prussian war.
THE DESTRUCTION OF PARIS.
The madmen who have ruled in Paris since
the conquering Germans marched in triumph
through its streets have appropriately finished
their work by firing or blowing np the splen
did palaces and other historical buildings
which were the pride of Franoe and the ad
miration of the world. The Germans, with a
moderation for which they have never had
half credit, prolonged the siege of Paris, at an
immense loss to themselves in men and
money, in order that its historical monuments
and its works of art might not be defaced;
and now the beautiful city is in all probability
a smoking ruin, Frenchmen themselves being
the incendiaries. The contempt expressed
by the saturnine Bismarck for the
boasted civilization of li grande na
tion certainly seems justified under
such circumstances as these,
and it is difficult to find words to express the
disgust which such deeds must excite in the
hearts of impartial spectators. The burning
of Moscow was an aot of lofty patriotism,
for which the Russians will ever be honored,
but tbe burning of Paris is a piece of vandal
ism which entitles the scamps who applied
the torch to no more consideration at the
hands of their fellow-countrymen and the
world at large than so many wild beasts.
The only good that we can see as likely to
come out of so much evil is that the over
weening pride of Frenchmen, and especially
of Parisians, will be eflectaally curbed in the
future, and the hard necessities of rebuild
ing their fallen fortunes will cheok their aspi
rations for false glory hereafter and' for
which, according to all present probabilities,
can only lead to worse misfortunes.
California resolutely upholds a relio of
barbarism by maintaining a State law which
forbids Chinarren from testifying in her
courts. Recently a party of Chinese miners
were robbed in open daylight. The robbers
are known, and were arrested, but will not be
pnninbed, solely because the testimony of
tbeir victims cannot be legally received,
tincb a law is as stupid as it is unjust. Evils
i-irfU be 2X'Pr--ea.!e J fraw t'Mass tes
timony caa be easily corrected through the
power of juries to decide upon its credibility;
while its rigid exclusion tends to render jas-
tice blind in the worst sense to facts which
are often of vital importance to entire com
munities. THE DEMOCIUCY.
General William McCitndlesa, the CanttU
date for Auditor-General.
General William McCandless, who was yesterday
nominated by tbe Democratic State Convention at
Harrlsburg for Auditor-General, on the fourth
ballot, was born In this city on September 89,1331.
After receiving his eduoation In the public schools,
he entered the machine shops of Klchard Norrls fc
Son, in which he served an apprenticeship of five
years. He was subsequently employed as an en
gineer on Western railroads, but soon abandoned
this calling, and, after studying law with Lewis C.
Cassldy, Esq., was admitted to the bar in 1358.
At the outbreak of the Rebellion, in April, 11, he
enlisted as a private in Captain Timothy Mealey's
company, and when the regiment was recognized
as tbe Sd RegiMent Pennsylvania Reserves,
Mr. McCandless was elected major. In October,
1S61, upon the promotion of Lieutenant-Colonel Al
bert Magllton to the colonelcy of the 4th Regi
ment, Major McCandless was elected and commis
sioned lieutenant-colonel, and upon the retirement
of Colonel William B. Mann assumed command of
the regiment. In the Peninsular campaign he com
manded his troops with skill, and on the first of
August, 1862, was promoted to the colonelcy for gal
lant and meritorious conduct. At the battle of Boll
Run he was severely wounded and carried from the
field to Washington. He rejilncd his regiment at
Sharpsburg and participated In Burnslde's cam
palgn. In Meade's campaign, Colonel McCandless
commanded the 1st Brigade of the Reserve Corps;
and during the absence of General Crawford In the
winter of 1863 and the following spring, he com
manded the division.
On Thursday, the 6th of Mav, 180-1, when the 1st
Brigade was out off and surrounded In the Wilder
ness, Colonel McCandless was captured, but in the
confusion that ensued he eluded hts cantsrs and
made hts escape through the dense forests, and ar
rived safely in camp at Spottsylvanla Court House,
Whilst leading his brigade in a charge on Sunday
evening, he was wounded In the hand and disabled
from further service. He returned to Philadelphia,
and was subsequently tendered a brigadier s com
mission, but feeling aggrieved r.t the fact of his ser
vices not having been recognized before, he wrote a
sharp letter to the then Secretary of War. In the
course of which he said that he believed the true
position of a citizen was at home.
He then resumed the practice of law, and soon
obtained a lucrative business, being principally
identified with the Illicit whisky cases In the United
States courts. In 1S68 he accepted the Democratic
nomination for state Senator U the First district,
and was elected over the Republican candidate,
Jeremiah Nichols, notwithstanding that at the pre
vious election the Republican candidate had secured
a heavy majority. While at Harrisburg he occupied
a leading position In the ranks of his party, aad fre
quently participated In debates upon the more Im
portant questions of the day. In the summer of
1869, his friends made a spirited canvass In his favor
for the Democratic nomination for Governor, but
failed to secure much strength for him In the con
vention. Biding his time, he now has the opportu-
nlty of coming before the people of the State for the
empty honor of defeat.
