Nat from Henjsmfn.
TlioXew Yeik 7t (hunt prfntfl from
thti advanced slieels of Thurlow We?d'.s
tnomelrn, nn anonymous letter found
atnenjr Mr. Weed's papers, addressed in
August 180, te the llrltlih ensul '
New Yerk, In which llie writer declares
thnttliciels a strong sentiment In tln
Seuth favornble te n return te English
rule and asking for an Interview with
the consul upon tlie matter, which could
net fee then had because of the consul's
absence from New Yerk. He Is reques
ted te address his answer te ,,Bmi.i
mln," te be called for at his eillce.
Upen this hint the letter Is proclaimed
te have ceme from Jndah P. llsnjamln,
Although tlie style of. the communica
tion contradicts the suspicion utterly.
The writer claims te be a member of
Congress, but If se he was a very silly
member. HanJ.imin has never beensni
pectcd of silliness ; en the contrary
If there ever was a mere astute
cltlzen ntneng us be has net been
recognized In the present generation. If
Mr. Benjamin had any such prepositions
te make te the British government he
would net have made It te the consul at
New Yerk ; nor would he have sug
Rested it in writing ; nor would he ha"e
done it In the language used by this
writer, who is evidently of the feather
weight order. Xcthlng Is mero likely
than that, in the conflict of sentiment
between the North nnd the Seuth en the
slavery question, there may have been
Southern people, and many of them.whe
would have favored a union with Eng
land If they could thereby have saved
their peculiar institution. But it is
extremely unlikely that any Southern
statesman, of ordinary sagacity, would
havescensuch nchance in an English
union; the Seuth would have jumped
from the frying pan into the fire en the
slavery issue in trading off its union
with the Northern states for ene with
England, where public sentiment is
unanimously against slavery as an insti
tutlen of their country. The man who
wanted te interview the British consul
was ene whose Judgment was blinded by
his passion ; und was net Benjamin.
m
The Mayoralty.
We feel quite cprtain that n very large
majority or our citizens, regardless of
politics, will regret te learn of Miner
MacGenigle's determination te retire
from the offle which he h is se acceptably
filled for three terms. Had he been
otherwise Inclined there is no doubt that
he would have been uuaninieusly re
nominated and le elected by a decisive
majority. Te an intelligent appreciation
or the duties of his 011106,110 has joined
such diligent und undivided application
te them that his administration has wen
for him the encomiums of geed citizens
of all partus, and has been productive
of the brst results for the municipality
In announcing his intention h ietire,
with pardonnble pride lie reviews the
events related te the city government
which have been centemp muieu3 with
his connection with it, und of which
eUitb will uadily concede that lie 1ms
bem a larce tart. "Lancaster will tie
f irtunaie, tndtcd, te find ann'her whose
effeits fm the promotion of the city's
best inter s' swill be as wisely directed
and as prel iU Especially salutary was
the application of Majer MacGenigle's
business principles te the finances of the
city, which li.idb-en dtiftlng from bad
te worse, and which, under his direct ion.
have been se far righted that the exhibit
which the authorities are able te make
te-day is the host stien for many years.
In the seltctien of Ids successor the
Democratic party needs te make care
ful choice, se that it mil) net disappoint
the public expectations reasonably i.tlsed
by the standard of magisterial fitness
maintained by M.i)er MacGenigle's re
nominations. The unjust geirymander
of the city and the partial disfranchise
nient of huge portions of it
In the apportionment of council
men is se crossly iu favor of
the Republican party tlmt the election
of a maer from the opposition is essen
tial te the best interests of the city. The
wisdom of ene branch of the municipal
government being a check upon the
ether is new very generally recognized
There is deuble responsibility upon the
Democrats of Lancaster te pick it a
man of unchallenged capacity, eipui
ence in ami acquaintance with munici
pal aftrtirs, tlrmuess and Integrity, us
their nominee for major. The nomina
tion is te be made next S iturday nig! .
There is no time te lese.

Mr. Ltmsir Is ene of tlie ablest and
most thoughtful men or his party in
Congresi ; lie is mero of a student than
of a "practical politician ," he Is as ad

as Mr. Watterson, Mr. Carlisle or Mr.
Morrison, and ene of the ablest s,v . is

niiwle by the writer of " firejeing
let'er. l'i vle.v of thesi fats it is vcrj
signlflcint that Mr. Lamar, speaking for
his secticn, declares tint "the piraiueunt
issue batere the country is still the te
form of Hi tiitleinl g vernm?nt from
itsseclie" il usurpation and ceruip'.l in ,"
" Theunln et the Djtnecr.wy for the

inaugurate an iilmiulstratleu under
which lecil sslf-gevernmeut, the free
and harmonious play of economic forces,
the just rights of states and indi
viduals, of labor and of capital will
be secured." We believe this te be
the well expressed Idea of pitrielic
Democrats everywhere. Te concede
that the tariff question is the only issue
before the country is te abandon the
Democratic faith; tomrrew It te a
doctrine that threatens te divi le the
party, Is te invite defeat. It would be
just as rational te insist that the Deme
crats must either declare the pree it
civil service system te be perfect or
espouse Mr Pendleton's particul r de
vice for reforming it.
The action of the joint Republican
caucus in Washington followed with the
introduction of Jehu Sherman's out
raje resolutions in the Senate, she.ss
very plainly the purpose of the enemy
te revive the issue of sectionalism. Te
met this and every ether pxsible issue
wiieh may be forced upon them, the
Democracy need te bs inspired with the
spirit of Senater L mar's letter, ami te

M. MacVeagh's independence, instead of
djlng away, bloasems forth in ienewed
vigor, rrem supporting a Philadelphia
municipal ticket, which was two tlur.ls
Hepublicin and one third D;ti ecratie,
he has advanced te the snppirte' one
that is t w. thirds Democratic and oee eee
tbird It-ipubMcaa ; and he clearly mani
fests his willingness te take an undiluud
Demecritic ticket if necessary t- tt.e
cause of reform. Mr. MacVeagh's mde

for years ; andtheir families sustained like
relations ; that this rotation continued te
Sept 13 ; that Hildebraud went te linn's
