A recent investigation into the charg es of corruption and bribery in the City Councils began on 12th, and, so fkr, the testimony shows an amount ot veuality rivaling that exposed in New York last year. The testimony of a trustworthy witness, folly corrobora te*!, shows that there was a wood pav ing ring designed to swindle the city ; that a large sum of money was raised for the purpose of bribing members of the Councils to vote for the wood pave ment on Broad st; that tho affair was concocted aud carried on in the office of one member of the Oouucils, and that when a 'member threatened to "go back" on the whole concern! threats were made to kill him. The testimony, so far astakeu, implicates many outsiders. It is believed that those who are exposing the affair do | so at the risk of their lives, some of j those'coucerned iu it beiug also im plicated in the Brooks, Mara, and Dougherty affairs. Thus far, in the proceedings of the constitutional convention —as will be seen in another column—only two re publicans have showu themselves ca pable of rising above the low parti san, and opposed to prostituting that august body to a party machine. These two high-minded gentlemen, who understand the dignity of their position and the high and sacred pur poses for which the convention was called, are Wm. M. Meredith, of Phi ladelphia, president of the convention and H. X. M'Allister from our coun ty. When Mr. M'Allister was placed upon the republican ticket —as dele gate at-large—we at once felt certain, that one honest republican would be a member of that body; we always gave Mr. McAllister credit for sincerity andjeever doubted his honesty of pur pose in advocating measures to which our party was opposed. He is not one of those republicans who endorses eve ry abuse his party is guilty of. He is a republican who will not hesitate to do credit to a political opponent when he sees he merits it. This is the line for every true patriot to pursue, and it is the spirit that must control the men who are to frame our funda mental law, if they would be true to their sacred trust We do not follow the course of some papers that differ with Mr. M'Allister in politics and take this occasion to taunt the radicals on account of his course at the organisation of the con vention. We know that these same journals would denot'uee a democrat for doing what Mr. M'Allister has done, had our party been in a majori ty and some of onr ring roosters been there to ran the convention in the in terest of party as did Harry White and M'Veigh for the rads. Now that the election is over we hear of proposal to the pay of Grant's office-holders. A Washing ton correspondent of the N. Y. Times, Grant's leading organ, predicts a re grading and increase of salaries of the uioat important officers in the civil ser vice, as one of the first acts of con gress. The salary of the President, the correspondent save, "roost be raised be tween qow and the 4th of next March in order to have it take effect during any part of President Grant's second term. It is certain that he will not ask to have his own salary increased, nor will he exercise any influence to have it increased ; but if the proposi tion is made in Congress to raise it $50,000 per year, it will hardly meet with much opposition. It is more likely tbat an appropriation will be made for a new executive mansion. It is an old plan to have a dwelling house for the Presidentjn a different S.rt of the city and use the White ouse as an office, ani it is now quite time for it to be carried out." It is claimed that Graut's majority on the popular vote will be 500,000. If that is so he is the negroes' Presi dent, as their rote for Grant was far above that figure. On the white rote of the people, the vote that has here tofore always elected Presidents, Grant is a beaten candidate ; and the people cf the United States must submit to what may emphatically be called ne gro rule, rallied to a vote procured by the same means which changed the vote of the 9th ward in Philadelphia from 993 counted, for 2,993 returned for Hartranft. The blackest fraud united with the blackest men have dirtied the old flag- _ l The popular vote of the U. 8., \ may be pretty nearly approximated 1 in the following estimate : < Whites for Greeley 3,300,000 Whites for Grant 2,900,000 < White majority for Greeley 400,000 < Negroes for Grant 960,000 ] Negroes for Greeley 60,000 c Negro majority for Grant 900,000 \ Grant's total majority, white and t negro combined, is 608,000 The to- 1 tal vote is fully 7,200,000. Grant's f majority on this is about seven per I cent. In other words, he has 100 votes u toGreeley's 93. This is the extent of o the tremendous sweep we hear so much about.—Cin.

A meeting of considerable intpcr-' tancc in the interests of the Kvangel ical Alliance was held 12th, iu Brook lyn, at the Church of the Pilgrim#. | The immediate business was the pre sentation of a statement by ono of the S.'crelaries, the Rev. I)r. Phi ip Schaff, respecting the forthcoming Convention of the Alliance in New- York City— the first to bo held In this country. Among it* poiuU wtrs the following : The Evangelical Alliance \tas organised in London in IBM to promote Christian lib erty and unioit among Protostaal denom inations throughout tho world. It was not a sectarian body, -Anil miglit rattier be compared to militia force to bo used in special emergencies, as when liberty of Joonseienoe is threatened, or where open persecution of individuals for their relig ious opinions exists. There had been thus far five general Conferences held, one at Landen, one at Paris, one at Genera, one at Berlin, and the (last at Amsterdam in 1867 The mth meeting was t* have been held in New York in 1870, and prepara tion# for for it were nearly completed w hen live new* of tho rupture between Germany, and France and the immediaie opening ot'' the conflict rendered its) postponement ne- j ceesary. As it was ,30 European delegate came over, but hastened back on jon discovering the threatening aspect of affair* on the Continent. l)r. Schaff theu obseived that the po*l pocntent loomed providential, as tubte nueut event* had only made tho religious horizon clearer, and the Alliance could now meet under more encouraging autpicos titan ever boiore. Since 1870 the Pope's power had been diminished, Italy had be- I come free, liberty of conscience had been I more broadly asserted in Europc.and, still I later, every cause of dispute and vexation I between England and America had been I settled amicably and forever. The way Ifor the march of Christian!)-, pure and simple, was less obstructed now than two year* ago. The speaker stated farther that for some time past he hrd been trav -1 sling in Europe to make preparations for the Conference of the Alliance hero next Fall, lie had visited the prominent pas- I tors aud clergymen of tho Evangelical I faith, aud had been able to secure tho at tendauce ot most of, them at the coming meeting. It was a matter of regret that I the Rev. Mr. Spurgeon, M Guizot, aud a number of eminent Professors from Cam bridge and Geneva would be unable to come. But those who were eonfidently x pee ted would form a brilliant body of man. Among ether* would *be: From Scotland—The Rev. Tho#, Guthrie, D. D., Wo, Arnold, David Brown, and Pro&. Ranncv and Blakie ; from England—The Dean of Canterbury, the Rev. Drs. Leeds, Angus, Harrison, Richie, and other*; from Ireland—the Rev. Mr. Steveuson ; I from France—Dr. Pressense, M. Moreau, and Pero Hyacinthe ; from Holland—Van Oosterxee ; from Italy—Father Uavazzi; and others from Sweden, Germany, Switz land, and Russia. The entire number from abroad would be from 300 to GOO, and a finer opportunity would nover present itself to residents of New York for giving the representative minds of Europe a wholesome lesson of America. In regard to the meeting the danger was that the Council would be too large, and it was therefore proposed to divide the meeting* between Brooklyn and New York, The residents of both cities would hare abund ant opportunity to show their hospitality and kindness to tbo visitors, and it was not too soon to make preparations for the I event The Rev. Henry Ward Beccher follow- I ed with a brief address in which he vivid ly contrasted the institution* of th old and the new world, showing how grand the opportunity would be to manifest to the European member* of tho Council the earnestness of a religion aurtured on a free soil. The devotional service* of the meet ing were conducted by the Rev. Drs. [Stoors, Budington, and SchnecL. THE CONSTITUTION A L CON VENTION First Day's Proceedings MEREDITH ELECTED CHAIRMAN Promptly at the hour of twelve the constitutional convention met in the hall of the house representatives and was called to order by Hon. F. Jor dan, secretary of the commonwealth who read the governor's proclamation containing the names of the delegates. The lobbies were crowded by citi zens and strangers. Eager questions were asked concerning the location of Curtin, Black, Woodward, Walker, Gowcn, Darlington, Hopkins, and other distinguished members. After calling the roll of members, ' Mr. Darlington, of Chester, nomina ted Wm. for president. The motion was seconded by Mr. Pur viance, of Allegheny, and was unani-; mously adopted. The president elect i was escorted to the chair by Messrs. Woodward and Darlington. Messrs Meredith, Woodward, Darlington and Purviance were all members of the convention of 1837. Mr. Meredith briefly returned thanks, when the business of the con vention proceeded. The ease, decis ion and the promptness with which be disposed of every auestion as it arose occasioned much flattering comment. It was evident that the right man was in the right place. At the first opportunity a delegate presented resolutions of the councils of Philadelphia inviting the conven tion to hold its future sessions in that city. Mr. Linn Bartholomew re sponded with a resolution at once ac cepting the invitation. Various amendments and motions were put which occasioned considerable debate, but it was evident that a large major- j ity was in favor of immediate adjourn ment to Philadelphia. At length Mr. Gowen offered a resolution that the invitation of the councils of Philadel phia be accepted and the convention meet permanently in that city after , the first of Januarv. This resolution was adopted by a large majority. On motion the chair was authorized to appoint a committee of ten to con sider and report what permanent offi cers are needed by the convention, when the first day's session came to its j close. From the proceedings of 13th inst., we clip the following: The following resolution was offer ed by Mr. M'Allister and unanimous ly agreed to: Resolved, That the report of Fran lis Jordan, secretary of the common wealth, be accepted au<l approved, and ;hat the thanks of the convention arc lereby tendered to him for the faith ul and satisfactory manner in which le has performed the duties devolved ipon bim by the act of the 11th day if April, 1872. Mr. Gowen offered the following esolution: Resolved, That the president np >oint a committee of ten, of which he hall be one, to report the names of iroper persons to fill the positions of lermanent officers of this convention. Mr. Gowen said that he made that esolution for the purpose of exclud- I ng anything like partisan seramh- I ing for office. He had read in the I corning papers that the officers had 1 ieen selected without consultation,! ritb all the members. He thought it fH taiMtb th dignity of a reform i convention to twrmit anything like partisan scrambling for office. He would therefore ask that the conven tion shall agree to the appointment of a committee of ten, of which tho presi dent shall bo chairman, to select offi cers, without regard to partisanship at all, to preside over this body. Mr. Lilly moved to amend by strik ing out nil after the word resolved utul insert tho following: That this con vention proceed to nominate and elect a chief clerk. Mr, McAllister said he hoped that this amendment would not pass. He thought it was beneath tho dignity ot this body to assemble here to estab lish nn organic law and submit to the dictation ola party of men outside this convention iu selecting officers. Ho had read with surprise iu the morning papers the distribution of the office# which the convention had ap pointed a committee to create. He tkvored the appointment of a commit tee to select ttiosc officers, as roeoui mended by Mr. Qowcn, of Philadel phia, aud thought it would be surely done in fairness. A committee should he appoiuted to inquire iuto the qual ifications of the persons applying for office and select those who will per form their duties well. Judge Woodward said ho would n support tho resolution of his friend li' front Philadelphia [Mr. Gowen] and l concurred iu his views. He thought i t tho general desire of the people was r that tho laws of Pennsylvania should t be revised without tho slightest refer t etiee to the partisan polities of the day. .C He said that they had not deliberuttd r loug before he heard the presiding of- t ficer call a member of tho eouveution i |to order foY alluding to jutrtisau sub i ijects, which was an intimation from i ! the highest source that they were tojt have uo political discussions. The 1 j manner iu which this body was elect I jed shows that the people of Panusyl-ji vania intended that the minority I I should be represented in everything;! done iu this body. He said there were i ' three hundred and twentyfive thousand j< | tax-payers in Pennsylvania who are 1 (called the minority, aud they are rep- ji ! resented by a body of gentlemen upon i (this floor. Is it iu accordance with < 1 the spirit of this msjoritv for a por- i | lion of this body to assemble in a tav- i eru in secret caucus aud there decide .1 that no representative of that three ' hundred and twenty-five thousand 1 tax-pavers shall be represented iu the officers of this body? That no man | shall be made secretary of this body 1 when ho is the fittest man for the po sition, but be is to be excluded from i eveu a chance of an election because, there has been a caucus oi violent par tisans ? He hoped Mr. Goweu's reso lution would pa.ss. Mr. M'Veagh thought that thoso| delegates who were elected by tho ma j jorily of the voters of this common j wealth were entitled to select the offi | cers who were to do the work of the (convention. He thought it was a 'shrinking of duty wheu candidates i were presented for office, that he should vote alternately, first tor a' ! gentleman who voted for him and ! then for a gentleman who voted j against him. The yeas aud uays were required on ■ the ameudment of Mr* Lilly, and it was agreed, yeas G7, nays Gt>. Messrs. J Curtin and M'Allister voting no. Wall Street Unsettled. Ji Effect* of the Boston Calamity in Fi nancial Circlet. New York, November 11.—The •; great calamity at Boston was the top ic of discussion to-dar through finau ■ j cial and trade circles. Many .con ! servativo underwriters place tlie loas at $75,000,000 and the insurance at ■ j $50,000,000, of which $15,000,000 or ! $20,000,000 is borne by British com ! pauies, in which since the Chicago fire j many American companies have re | insured. Values of merchandise have been advanced from seven ito twenty per cent. Boston men arc '■ already here making selections and 1 accommodations for the sale of goods. ': The condition of the Boston insurance j companies is involved in much doubt . though those familiar with their con | versalive policy believe that not all [ will succumb. WOOL. The destruction of eleven million J pounds of wool, a stock of five million i suits of clolhiug and almost the en tire supply of woolens aud clothing j for eastern Canada and the northwest 1 caused an advance here of seven per I cent. Coffee is rather excited. The j loss of two or three large grinders and others in Boston, removing 21,000 j bags from the market. Some 25,000 | half chests of tea, largely Japans and | Oolongs, have been destroyed aud 1 j measurably relieve the market here, ji The Wool Trade—Look Out for an Advance In Wlnter Clothing, i [From the X. Y World J To judge from the general aspect of affairs in the wool trade in this city the fire in Boston was an ill wind that blew an immense injury to the Bosto- ( niaus, but one that was an indirect be- | nefit to the trade of this city and Phil- t adclphia. The almost total destruct- t tion of the wool trade Boston,',, where the stock in store was estimated ) at about 12,000,000 pounds, or a trifle over an eighth of the whole clip of the United States, cannot but enhance the value of the stock now in store io this city, which at a liberal calculation, is a very light one, the supply, both do mestic and from South America, be ing all in hand and cannot be increas ed until next spring or early summer, nor can the supply to arrive from Australia aud the Cape of Good Hope at English ports, and which is estima ted at one third less than last year's clip, increase the supply in this coun try, and it is generally expected that the annual wool sales which will be gin in London ou the 21st of Novem ber, will show a very decided advance in prices. The trade had just begun in the city for the season, and the sales of wool on Saturday were larger than they had been for some time. Of course the fire has Btruck an immediate blow to the trade and will stagnate it for a few days, uutil the general wreck can be cleared away. But the holders of large stocks, if they can stand the fi nancial storm caused by the almost to tal loss of over 8100,000,000, cannot but realize a handsome profit on their stock. The stock now on hand can not more than supply the machinery engaged in the manufacture of woolen goods, even if run, as they have been of late, at half time, while the supply now held in England and to arrive will but serve to keep their milla at work at Bcant half time. As far as could bo ascertained yesterday none of the New York houses were disastrous ly affected by the fire, other than by the general depression in the money market, which they hope to tide over, while the increased profits on the stock held by many of them, and the de flection of the trade formerly held by the Boston merchants to New York, was deemed by some more in the light of a blessing than a loss. The actual sufferers by the loss of material will, to a great extent, be the public at large, at all kind* of woolen goods will advauca immediate- Iv, and those who have not purchased ti their winter overcoats or woolen un- l derch thing will have to pay from • thirty to fifty per cent more for them, < or bo copteul.H) with wearing an in- l ferior article, composed more of shod- 1 dy than anything else. > lu several cases recently tried in (lii)crcut states the question has beeu 'raised of the liability of life insurance I' companies to be holders of policies on ,' lives which liavg terminated through ! 1 suicide or intemperance. In regard to ' the question of suicide the decisious in this country have widely varied. lu England the courts have uniformly decided that if a person taking hi* < own life has sufficient intelligence to 1 know that the act iu which he is en gaged will prove fatal, he violates the l conditions of the contract, and the ' policy cannot be recovered upon; 1 ! while if the man is so insane as not to' I know that he is taking hi* own life he !< cannot be said to die by bis own baud J I within the meaning of the policv. In , | Detroit lately the widow of llenry Wolff, who committed suicide in 1871 brought suit against a Connecticut { company to recover a policy of |3,000 i seucd on her husband's life. The pol 1 cy sets forth that it shall be void if he insured died by bis own hand, lu his case it was conceded that Wolffi •willy died by bis owu haud, but the Jourt went beyond the English decis' on* and held tbat. although the Mil ado might know that the act would* result fataly, if be was impellod there- ' toby au irresistible impulse he did; not die by his own hand w ilhii the meaning of the policy. Under this! ruling testimony at to the actual con-: ilition of Wolff's mind was admitted, when it traunpired that he had long', beou addicted to intemperate habits, aud had killed himself while suffering from delirium tremens. It was then shown that the policy also stated that it should he void in ca*e of death bv delirium the matter that by consmt of coun sel on both sides a juror was with drawn, aud the case permitted to go over for the term in order that it might he proper!r considered in its new aspect. In Louisville a widow has just recovered $22,000, with in terest to date of verdict, from another Connecticut company, which had re sisted navmeul of the policy on the grouuu that tho assured had died from, delirium tremens. The company based its refusal to pay on a provision in the! policy which declare*! it should be! forfeited, if the assured should become; so far intemperate as to impair Lisj health or to induce delirium tremens. The company introduced some proof, tending to show that the assured had delirium tremens in a mild form ; but this was denied by the plaintiff and by the physician who atleuded the de ceased, and it was satisfactorily pro ven that uranic poisoning was the, proximate or immediate cause of hisj death. Thus the perplexing ciueslion was evaded, the jury giving the ver dict on the belief that tbe'mau did not; die of delirium tremens. There is no decision of the United States Supreme Court to govern such cases. A liberal and democratic conven tion met at Columbus, Ohio, on 15th aud was well Attended, and tome of the best men of botb parties were present. They held their session with closed doors, no reporters being admitted, jThe proceedings were perfectly har monious. A conciliatory address wii be issued to the voters of Ohio signed by both the liberal and democratic chairmen inviting all to stand by the liberal party who had done so, and all others who approved of its object, and an appeal to all democrats not to al ienate themselves from the old party, jto come forward and help earn* out the principles of the Ciucinnati plat form. The Joliet (III.) Republican ho.* the following at the bead of its eel-: urns of reading notices : "Some men are born mean ; some wen achieve meanness; and some have meanness thrust upon them. The first class take their county paper without intending to pay for it ; the second class get it a year for nothing' and then refuse to take it out of the postofKce ; and the third 'class wou't subscribe for it because generous neighbors loan them copies."

KDUOATION. | Thing, uiay have a value in themaelvea, lor they may have a value, not in them < selves, but only in so far at they are con ducive to something else, something be jyond. In the former case we term such things a yoorf, an end; in the latter, a mean* to an end era good. The value ol I the former is absolute, that of the latter rel ative—depending on the value of the mult tie be obtained. To illustrate, bread and j clothing have an absolute value being a good, an end in themselves , the value ol money is relative and|dependt on the value ;of things that may be procured for it; it n I therefore a means to an end. Thus, on the basis of either of these principles the value I or importance ol an Kducalion may be ee timated. Some persons consider an edu cation valuable only in proportion as it is conducive to some pecuniary mult or gain, and attach no importance to sciences which are of no direct utility in making money. Hence, the study of Music, Draw ing. Fainting, Philosophy, or the like, is considered a useless waste of time. Othors consider education a good in itself, that Ln ; dependent of any pecuniary advantages resulting from it, it is an essential constit uent of a perfect man They regard man as a good unto himself, and that bis train ing should be so directed as to developc all i the faculties of his miad in a harmonious manner. The latter of these views is, un doubtedly, the nearer correct, but both are extreme and open to objections. To c-sii jroate every thing by the standard of dol lars and cents is wrong; and, on the other hand, to ignore the advantages which an education affords a man to minister to the ( wants of his family and those around him, | seems equally unreasonable. 1 shall endeavor to show, in the first j place, some of the pecuniary advantage* afforded by an education, and in the lec 'ond place, consider the subject in its high !rr and nobler sense by a discussion of the | true end of study. I will introduce the subject by asking the question; Does it poy to devote the time and incur the expenses necessary to | the acquisition of an Alucation? Intelli gent men would without hesitation ans wer yas. But there is a class of men, pre judiced against schools and every thing having a connection with ictellectual training, who see no value in any thing unless manifested directly through dollars and oents. It is useleef to talk to a person of this typo of the bencuts in general oc- 1 curing from learning, 110 may live in a community of intelligence and refinement; have rail-road facilities and manufactories at his door ; his land may be worth from one hundred to two hundred dollars an acre; and ho may enjoy all the comforts which the highest degree of civilization can bestow, yet he i too short sighted to discern the source of these blessings. Il his sons ere to bo taught reading, writing, I and arithmetic, it is with tbo expectation that, from their proficiency in raanipula- 1 ting book accounts, the reward is immediately in the shape of the big dollar.' Indeed, such souls are exceedingly mi nute, and were ail mankind to relapse in to their modeof thinking, the world would toon degenerate into barbarism. Those! men stand in their own light and are the! rery essence of selfishness.

Perhaps we may beet appreciate the utility of knowledge by comparing the se curity and comfort of enlightened govern ment and a happy household with the cru elty and wretchedness of roaming savage*. For, alt the comfort* and convenience* cf modern society end happy homes are the accumulated result* of knowledge duriug ages. All the great discoveries and inven tions which lighten tabor by making Na ture'* element* subservient to the will of man, thu* raising him above tbe level of a mere physical machine, may be referred to the seme source. But, it is said discov eries and inventions have generally been ; the result of accident. This may be true 'in one sense or to some extent, but tbey were never suggested to minds not already (trained by deep and continued thinking; | ibey would never have occurred to an un i tutored savage. A Hottentot may see (tower iu steam, or view with awe the lightning flashing athwart the dark brow of the frowning storm-cloud, yet be would never think of hitching the one to bis ca noe orot giving the other a tongue to speak to his fellow being* The first idea of the : probability and manner of utilising these j potent agents was reserved for observing and trained mind* to accomplish. Thus jit ha* been with the thousand* of dtscov- I cries of science and the almost infinite j number of mechanical device* which leas ion labor and emeliorate man'a condition. Tbey have been achieved only by the pa tient investigation and energy of educated minds. In the hurry and bustlo of life we seldom pause to consider to what we owe our present prosperity, or if recogniaing it a* the fruit of intellectual training, we can • hardly be made to comprehend bow inis erablo we would be bad it not been for this 'agency. To portray to our minds mere vividly what has been accomplished in this respect within tbe lost hundred veers, let us imagine that, at this moment, all telegraphs.frail-roads, and machinery ■ propelled by steam, not including thou • ' sands of other modern appliances were an nihilated; we would then wait for news from the Pacific coast or Europe two or three month* instead of about that many minute*; journeys end transportation of , merchandise to and from different place* k would require as many months nearly a* Cat present days.

Every subscriber to THE ALDINE. who pays in advance for the year 1878, will receive, without additional charge, a pair of beautiful ml chromos. after J. 8. llill, the eminent English painter. The pic tures, entitled "The \ illag* Bella," and "Crossing the Moor," are Ux'JU inches are printed from 25 different plates, requir ing 23 impressions and tints perfect each picture. The same chromos are sold lor s>llo per pair in the art stores. As it is the determination of ita conductors to keep TUK ALDINK out of the reach of com pel ion* in every department, the chromos will be found correspondingly ahead ol any that can be offered by other periodic alt. Every subscriber wtll receive a cer tificate, over the signature of the publish ers, guaranteeing that the chromos de lievsred shall be equal to the samples fur nished the agent, or the money will be re funded. The distribution or pictures of this grade, free to the subscribers to a five dollar periodical, will mark an epoch in the history of Art; and, considering the unprecedented cheapness of the price for THE ALDINE itself, the marvel falls lit tle abort of s miracle, even to those best acquainted with the achievement of inven live genius aud improved mechanical ap-_ pliance*.
