Oambria Freeman. EDEKSDI7RG, PA. TllCRSDAT MORNINO, : DlC. 1, 1870. Tub Speaker of the Senate, Gen. Iljtrry White, has issued his writ, directed to the Sheriff of Philadelphia, ordering a special election to be held in the First Senatorial District, on Tuesday, the 20A of this month, to supply the vacancy occasioned by the . death of Wm. W. Watt. It is understood that both parties will make their nomina tions next week. We suppose that GraDt j rjom; will lurmsh the necessary number of United States troops to secure a fair and honest elec tion. Why not ? The district is a close one, and it seems to be conceded that the most unexceptionable and competent candidate will be successful. Let the Democrats of the district, therefore, embrace the oppor tunity that is now oflered to them. Ileecher on Rutlcr. The new leader of the Radical party, Ben jamin F. Butler, after having had a confi dential interview with Grant, repaired to Boston, and on yesterday week delivered his promised ad drees before the Lyceum of that city; in favor of a war with England as a most righteous and proper way of 6ettliog the Alabama claims. The Christian conclu sion at which this political charlatan arrives is that such a war "would be the conquest of Canada" and "would perpetuate the rule of the Republicans in this country more than a generation." This is a view of the case eminently worthy of the "Beast" who was so shameless and brazen-faced as to give it utterance. In striking contrast, Ilenry Ward Bcecher thus pointedly alludes to Butler and those who endorse his bloody solution of the Alabama question. Beccher.in his discourse at Plymouth Church, sternly rebuked the invitation to war with Eng land. He said : "Cursed of God and of all men may be the man who counsels the red hand of war, except when needed to fight for national existence. The only war we want is the war of righteousness. Let Kings war, let aristocrats war ; but the nobles of this great Republic should know the fellowship of man, and instead of the red hand of war let them put around their neighbors the arm of fellow-t-hip, and dwell with them In harmony, in sym pathy, and in love." Ilougli on Grant. If the harsh and severe criticisms on Gen. Grant which now find daily utterance in some of the leading Republican papers had originally appeared in Democratic journals, they would be attributed to a purely vindic tive party spirit. But coming as they do from his own political household, they pos sess peculiar significance, and show that the prominent Radical editors of the country do not entertain even a decent respect for the present incumbent of the White House. An drew Johnson was never made the target of so many poisoned darts as have been lately leveled at Grant by his own partisans. The following plain talk from the Chicago He. publican is but one of many cases in point: "It 1ms been no uncommon thing for party organs in the United States to accuse Presi dents of their own party of party offences, un truth to the party principles, or unfaithfulness to their actual or implied pledges in respect to individuals or policy. It is the common fate of acceding Yice Presidents to suffer under ac cusations of party perfidy in general, accom panied, for the sake of emphasis, witb suycres nous of official malfeasance. But the ollicial career of General Grant presents a case that is peculiar. lie sUndi charged not so much with unfaithfulness to his party as ollici&l miscon duct and personal meanness ; and these charges are so we 1 established, so universally believed and so freely enlarged upon, that the organs of j ma own party even which speak in his favor or attempt his vindication are the exception. No American President, taking for it the testimo ny of the Republican press, was ever more thorough! despised or de.erved it better than the one w ho now dishonors the highest place in the gift of the people by his tenancy." The McGarrnlian Claim; One of the most damaging features of Grant's administration has been his intimate connection with certain well-known jobs or schemes of questionable purity, and which, as they have rapidly succeeded each other, have formed the subject of extended news paper criticism. The strictures of the Radi cal press in relation thereto have been both pointed and severe. Passing by the memo rable gold speculation in New York, over a year ago, in which he and his brother-in-law (Corbin) acted a mysterious part, the next notable instance of the kind was the San ngo treaty. All bis energies, as well as his official influence, were exerted in favor of that speculating project. One of his nu merous military attaches who hang around the Executive department, and who, like many other things in this world, are more for ornament than use, was dispatched in a government vessel to that island, in company with a United States Senator, for the pur pose of procuring statistical information, so called, in order to secure the ratification of the treaty by the Senate. Grant even trans ferred his headquarters from the White House to one of the Senate committee rooms, which no President had done before, and there held interviews with refractory Sena tors, using his personal influence with them to put the iob through. At least one well known Senator, of easy political virtue, who was opposed to the President's pet scheme, was convinced of the error of his ways, and as a quid pro quo, for his sudden change of front, a son-in-law of that same Senator was soon afterwards appointed minister to a for. eign court. All the efforts of Grant in favor of the treaty were unavailing the Senate stood firm and immovable against the swin dle, and the treaty failed, as it deserved to do. It is said, however, that the Presiden tial Ring have not yielded the point and that another effort to accomplish their purpose wi'I be made at the approaching session. And now we have the celebrated McGara ban claim, in which Grant appears to be considerably mixed and shows to great dis advantage. The land embraced within this claim is located in California and covers one of the richest quicksilver mines in the world. It was in reference to this claim that one of the difficulties arose between Grant and Gen. Cox, the late Secretary of the Interior and which forced that gentleman, as a mat ter of duty and self-protection, to retire from the Cabinet. It is enough to tay that years ago the Supreme Court of tho United States decided that MiGarrahan' title to the land was fraudulent. One of the ablest Republican paperj in the country, the New Yoik Evening Post, clearly sums up in the following article the points established against McGarrahan and Grant by the re cently published documents relating to the case. Elsewhere will be found n number of official documents giving n curious history of the Mc Garrahan claim, nml of President Grant's con nection with it. We are sorry to say that tho I resident does not ap-x-ar to advantage in this story. Jt seems to be established : First Tlmt McOarrahan's claim had within live years been decided unfounded by the Su premo Court or the inited States, and that court, in fact, in its decisions, showed that some of the persons concerned iu it have been guilty of ktoss fraud. Second Ihu claim had been officially ox promt The Radical Defeat In Missouri. The Ilrown-Nbnrz Organ on the Situa tion Tlie I..-mm on of the Hour. From the St. Louis Democrat, Radical-! The magnificent victory achieved by the Liberal Republican movement will challenge attention in every State of the Union. It is emphatically a victory of principle. The contest, from its earliest inception, has turned upon the most important questions of State and national policy, and the deci sion of the people, complete and overwhelm ing as it is, will be accepted everywhere as an indication cf the popular will in other States as well as this. That decision is, first, for removal of all political disabilities. The people believe that the tear hat lasted long enough ; that men who have surrender ed, obeyed the laws and kept the peace for years, and who are now industiious and Use ful citizens, ought nut to be deprived any longer of an equal share in the governrr.ent. In Missouri this decision enfranchises proba bly fifty thousand men who have been de prived of suffrage, until this year at least. In other States, the same principles and policy, if carried into effect, will remove dis abilities from a host of the ablest and most influential citizens, who have been excluded from office by national authority, aud whose places have been filled by a class of men not creditable, as a whole, either to the Repub lican party or to the State which they rep resent or govern. Let political disabilities be removed ; let the intellect and ability of the South resume their natural influence, and whether these States be Republican or Dem ocratic, they will at least be more wisely governed aud more fairly represented iu the national councils. No party cau long afford to exclude from suffrage or from office a large body of men, including many of the ablest, wealthiest and most influential cf the community ; and the attempt to do so, wherever made, only injures the Republican party and exposes it to the charge of disre gard of public interest for the sake of main taining itself in power. It is time for the party to relieve itself of this ereat burden. The decision of the people is most emphatic rebuke cf the system of taxation maintained for years with the aid of Republican votes in Congress. The protective system, taxing the mauy for the beuefit of the few, has been tolerated only because the people were deep ly interested in other questions, and post poned action in regard to the tariff until a more convenient season. Now the war issues are settled. The country rests in the couvic- j tiun that the settlement made will not be disturbed. Reconstruction is completed. Negro suffrage is established and fortified in the Constitution itself. These matters settled, the people are free to consider whether the system of taxation under which they have been living is a wise or just one. Tho ver dict of Missouri indicates what the decision ! marvelous handiwork as well as the ttamp of other States will be when that question ! of remarkable inventive genius is to be seen The Mechanism or a Dream, A German Da-niN Ont an Automatic Wonder A Cnrlont Production Kin gular Story or the Author of the Work. From the Troy Times, Nov. 6. A few days ago we told a singular story detailing the arrest of two burglars through the instrumentality of a dream. We have now to record a more singular tale- how a man for fourteen years has steadily worked with one object in view the perfection of a most wonderful piece of mechanism having in the first instance received the impression of the idea from a dream, which wrought such an impression on his mind that during all these intervening years he has followed it with an infatuation that could not be re sis ted, aud which was sometimes so great that his daily avocation was neglected, and even his family were left without the neces saries of life, r or the past six months he has labored atmost constantly at his pet machine ; aDd though often disappointed in the realization of this grand idea, often cast ing the work of months aside as some object intervened to necessitate a change of plans, he has never been discouraged or disheart ened. To the jeers of friends and the plead ings of his family he would always respond, My dream, my dream!" It was to him the ignus J'atus which shone across the marches aud moors of disappointment, and proved to him the means by which one of the moat curious aud wonderful mechanical contrivances ever perfected has been pro duced. The name of this man is Joseph Bergmann, and he lives in a little wooden house on Farm street, Ida Hill. Yesterday, having previously beard of JJergman's inven tion or coutrivance, we took a walk up to the locality with two other gentlemen, and after being nearly mired in mud in our efforts to reach the house, we at last fuund it, and were kindly received by the proprietor. He ushered us into a room about eight feet square, in which stood his wonder the re sult of days and nights of toil occupying a II r . I . . .... goouiy portion oi me apartment. There was a little workbench near tho window filled with diminutive tools without number, with which the curioia thing had been fash ioned and shaped, and cut and carved. But before we describe, even most imperfectly, the machine we had come to see, let us say something of its author. Bergmann is a German, about fifty years of age, and speaks English most imperfectly. He is a little diminutive man, with a pale, shallow coun tenance, aud a look which speaks of care and thought, if not positive suffering. He is evidently very poor the bouse is almo.t bare of furniture and in speaking of the dream and the work which had so infatuated him, he said it would have been better for him if he had never experienced the one nor undertaken the other. He is a cabinet ma ker by trade, and the skill of an almost The War Record. shall be presented. It will bo well for the Republican party if it heeds this waming and purges itself of responsibility for this great Wrong. 2so parly can afford to defend in the construction of the machine. Berg mann informed us that fourteen years ago he dream pt one night of a machine such as stood before us. At first he thought little the tariff under which we live. .No party, j of it. Then it began to occupy his mind to however popular, can afford to be rosponsi- i the exclusion of other subjects, and after a lime ne commenced me wors, at nrst at odd Auincgty in Mexico. A thort time ago, the Congress of Mexico, the home of chronic disorder and revolution, passed a law of political amnesty. It is cot only so in name, but in substance and reali ty, liy its liberal terms all the revolutiona ry Generals, as well as those who fought under the standard of Maximilian, are free to return to their homes and are cot to be troubled for anything they have done. Even Santa Anna, so long exiled from his coun try, and nearly all the other exiles, cau again j mako their abode in their native laud, their political offences having been forgiven and their political disabilities removed. The law does honor to the members of Congress who passed it. Grant and his administra tion might learn wisdom from this liberal movement of the Congress of Mexico. they will not, and the old, stale and hack neyed song of loyalty will be played on the Radical "harp of a thousand strings" until after the next Presidential election. Horace Greeiy, who can see further into the political future than any other Radical ia the country, said two years ago that if Congress did not pass a general amuety law, utter and inevitable defeat awaited the Radical party in all the old slavo States. His theory wa?, that the sons of the disfran chised whites iu those States were rapidly becoming voters, and that when they went to the polls they would not forget the wrongs and indignities that bad been inflicted on their fathers by Radical hatred and reveDge. Greeiy' prophecy is fast becoming fact, as was conclusively thown by the result of the late elections in West Virginia and Missouri The same fate awaits the Radical party in all the Southern States, witb the exception perhaps of South Carolina, which Las been given over, for a time at least, to the corse and abomination of negro and carpet-bag rule. Universal Amnesty is merely a question cf time. It ought to have been proclaimed when the so-called fifteenth amendment was said to have been ratified. It is assert ed that Grant ia his forthcoming message tl) recommend it to Congress. But coming J" jt M ' A. 1 1 . ro m inai source, at ia laie cuy, u win signally hi! to sicoiDplikb the desired politi cal mult. by two different Attorneys-General of the Uni ted States as fraudulent.

Fourth Attorney-General Hoar officially in- Frrueicti cretary Cox that under these cir cumstances lie Had no rujht to deny the demand ot the opponents of McGarrahan to have their claim invest lrated. y' fnuor this opinion of Attorney-General Hoar Secretary Cox ordered, not that tho iuna company should have their patent, but only that in the regular course of business their claim should be examined at the Laud Oifice. fisth lTerriiion it terms that one Leici Dent, a hrothrr-in-lair of the Present, ran on to Long Uranch, where the I"rcxuUnt uxm tnyuia, and, in the xntrrcft of MrGarruhan and hU fellow claim ants, fiersuaUcd him to forbid the action of Secre tary Cor. J Seventh At tho same timo McGarrahan in duced tt mi,i,-ity or the judges of the Court of the District of Columbia, in vacation, and in the absence of the majority, and after they had once been rebuked by tho Supremo Court for similar illegal interference with the constitu tional province of the Executive, to make au order narainst the Secretary to show cause whv a mandamus should not le issued forhiddinir him to have the New Idria claim examined. t'Uihth Thereupon Secretary Cox wrote to the President an account of the case, helievinir hun to bo uniformed of tho facts ; pointed out to hun that the court proposed a irros interfe rence with tho Executive authority ; and asked him to come to Washington, cail a Cabinet meeting, and deal -viUi the business in a busi ness manner Sinth The President took no notice of this request, and did not act upon the information Kiven him by Secretary Cox. Thus it appears that tho President, who was probably ignorant of the demerits of McGarra han s case. nJlrntkxt hi bmlher-in- law to interfere in it to the liMurh anee of justice. General Grant doe not nhoic well in the matter; and his interference w marie, imrxe I'll the fact that not only hit, brother-in-law, but n: notorious politician who haj)ien jnt rune to le hU ' confidential and intimate adviser, are re puted to be concerned with UcGatrahan in thu I f C l tit m Hut it ought not to le forgotten that this whole matter is a false issue set upbv the Pres ident against (iencral Cox. The real issue is tho prostitution Of the rii-il 1.x. . i But J if"Vhmt hfl. the rodent is held responsible As the time approaches for holding the election in Georgia, the usual carpet-bag cry comes up to Grant for a sufficient number of United States troops to preserve order at certain election polls in that State. Of course the demand will bo promptly com plied with by this bayonet administration, although one would suppose that Grant's late experience in that way in North Caro- I Una, Alabama and New York city had taught una a iitue wisdom and shown him that all such high handed and illegal proceedings must end in disastrous failure. Although more than five years have elapsed since the close oi the war, Georgia has never been re stored to her place in tho Union. She has been reconstructed so often that it is difficult to say how many different kinds of govern ment have had an existence within her bor ders. She has been the port of Congres sional malignity at one time, of Presidential caprice at another, and is sow writhing in tho foul and unnatural embrace of mercena ry carpet-baggers and ignorant negro legis lators. If a peaceful and fair eWinn be held in Georgia, as Gen. Crawford, who was tn command of the military in Ala bama at the recent election, aavg was the case to that State, the conservatives of Geor gia, to far at least as they are concerned win nury urant'u administration so deep that tho trump of political rwurrcctioa can never teach it. ble for a scheme of plunder by which three hundred millions a year are taken from the pockets of consumers aud given to enrich a few favored capitalists. This policy, inju rious to the country, will surely be ruinous to any party which attempts to defend it, and those are the truest friends of the Re publican party who labor most earnestly to crush the power of the monopolies and fa vored interests in its councils. The Mis souri election, fairly considered, is a ar.iing to the Republican party that it must drop the policy falsely called protection, or muat prepare itself for overwhelming defeat. Vre sutuiug upon the attachment of men to the party, Republican managers have disregard ed the wishes and interests of the Western people, and have suffered the party to be used as a tool by Eastern monopolists. It is lime frr them to learn that the West will not tolerate any longer such betrayal of Us interests. President Grant has given to the election in this State a peculiar significance. The people of Missouri were engaged in deciding important questions of State policy, and in declaring their will upou questions of na tional importance. They had no thought of the next Presidential election, and were not incliued either to advocato or to oppose the re-election of General Grant at this lime. But he was influenced by men who cared more for small offices than for the success and reputation of his administration. They pursuaded him that the Liberal Republicans of Missouri were hostile to his re-election. The absence of any pledge to support him for a certain term, and the emphatic decla ration for a reform of the civil service, were regarded by tho President as evidences of hostility. In the most unfortunate moment of ms life, be consented to use the power of appointment and removal in a vain attempt to cru.-h this liberal Republican element iu Missouri. Thus he has converted a victory of principles to which he was pledged, which are vital to the Republican party, and which neither General Grant nor the party should ever have permitted to be used against them, into a most terrible rebuke of his administra lien. Missouri tells him that her veoiAe is not for sale; that office and the hope of office cannot seduce them from their convictions of duty; and that his own forget fulness of pledges, and disregard of vital Republican principles will not be imitated, but sternly rebuked by freemen in every part of the land. The voters of Missouri only speak the will of freemen elsewhere. Presidential in terference in State elections is so odious, so offensive to every true Republican, that no President can hope for the confidence and support of the people whoso abuses his power. The victory is complete and glorious. We trust that its lessons will not be lost upon the President and the Republican party of the nation. Another Diabolical. Outbaoe by a Neoro in West Chester.

It is so complicated and does such wonderful thing that a perfect description would fiill columns. We hardly know what to call it, even. It beats all the auto mations in the world. The reader must imagine a beautiful miniature structuie set upon a huge mass of rock, with road-beds winding up tho sides of the rocks, aud streams of water coursing down precipitous bluffs. This miuiaturo houso represents the residence of a wealthy old miller, with his grist mill, saw-mill, oil-mill, etc., adjoining. There are Borne thirty figures to be seen in the foreground and about the buildings and mills. There is also a little fountain in the foreground, with the water playing, and a lake with a boat and oarsman. All these mills and figures and playiug waters are set in motion by means of a combination of machinery similar to the works of a clock, and when these are wound up and set run ning every figuro takes up its automatic movement. The old miller sits in an elegant apartment, reading a newspaper. Ilis eyes follow the column downward. Ilis head in clines with a corresponding motion. The column is finished and the sheet is turned over and the eyes are attracted to another portion of the paper. Every movement is wonderfully life-like. The miller's wife sits in another apartment industriously spinning. The domestics are going about performing their daily toil. The saw-mill is aoc simile of such an institution. The log is iu its place and slides along to meet the teeth of the saw, which is working up and down cutting it in two. The attendants are all nusv in their several duties. The grist-mill is also going. One man is tending and feeding the uopper. r.very now and then he goes back and forth with a tray upon his shoulders me contents of which he pours iuto the mouth of the hopper.

From Monday's Worid.l Onr despatches this morning all agree that the army of the Loire, under General Au rells de Paladines, continues to gain signal victories for the republic. The right of that army, on Friday, was at Gein, and a desper ate attempt made by the German commander to iiank that right was gallantly repulsed, resulting in the capture of five hundred pris oners. Simultaneously with this failure to turn the right, the Prussians were handsome ly repulsed on the left at Chateau dn Loir and compelled to retreat on Chateaudun. In fact, it appears that a general attack on the Army of the Loire commenced on Thursday last, and that the French had been victori ous all along the lines. We even hear of I guns captured by the French, two on the ieit ana iour on tne rigui. The French successes of course created the greatest excitement at Tours, where a large number of troops were pouring in from Brittany and other provinces. News had also been received of a victory gained at Vougeancourt, near Montbeliard, by Gari baldi's troops, and of successes near Amiens, where General Farre's troops engaged a di vision of Manteuffel's army at Boves, a vil lage not far from that city. Our despatches all show that the Army of the North, under Farre ; the Army of the West, under Keratry ; and especially the Army of the Loire, under Aurelles de Pala dines, have all been successfully engaged during the past four days in narrowing the circle heretofore occupied by the German forces. The peace party in the British Cabinet, it is now confidently asserted, will carry the day. Our special correspondent in London telegraphs that there will be no war, the opiuion in official circles becoming more gen eral that England will find a way to gut out of her trouble without a fight. This, how ever, does not suit the war party, who. if fight they must, prefer to do so now, while Prussia has her hands full aud can thus ren-. der no aid to Russia, than later, when flu.-hed with victory she may place her le gions at the command of the Czar. For the present, however, notwithstanding the fact that Rursia insists on being bound no longer by the treaty of Paris, the British lion will roar but not bite '-protest," that's ihs word. Pebilous Position of Two Casta wats. Two men have been for about six weeks on a desolate aud inaccessable island called the Bird Rocks, in the Gulf of St. Lawrence. and a government steamer has gone to make an attempt to rescue them. The Quebec Chronicle says : "The rocks are over sev enty feet high, and to reach the summit the visitor must climb two perpendicular ladders over thirty feet each, an operation attended with considerable risk and trouble. At the base of the island large sharply-cut boulders of black stone are scattered at irregular dis tances, against which aud the rock itself the waves, whin the sea is running high, dash with tremendous violence and force. In launching a boat from the Rocks a calm day must be selected, and even then the greatest caution must be observed, owing to tne great under-swell, wbich is almcst as dangerous as the high-running sea. One of the government schooners made several at tempts last week to reach the men, but fail ed ; aud, in addition, the commander, to save his vessel, ordered his crew to throw all the provisions overboard with which it was intended to replenish the exhausted stock on the island. The steamer Ladv Ilead also made an attempt, but it was alsj unsuccessful. A final effort will be made to reach the rock. A first-class outfit of boats, geariug, and other required appurte nances have been provided ; and, iu the event of a failure, it is decided to draw the men away from it through the water, by means of ropes tied around their bodies. Three of the boats of the Lady Head were smashed to pieces, and the occupants with the greatest trouble escaped with their lives.
