Currrix would have met with different treatment had the result changed the political .com pleiion of the delegation from Pennsyl vania, but as his admission was ivithout any practical advantage, a poor show of honesty and fairness was made- at,his ex pense. It is now certain that the 'Demo crats will attempt to pass a bill regulat fog the count which will render Congress the arbiter of the Presidential contest. The proposition is to make Congress the eourt of final resort in all caste of disput ed returns. It is a most dangerous and revolutionary plan,, and it is fortunate for the country the Presidential veto is in the hands of an upright and faultless man, who will interfere with his constitutional prerogative to prevent the consummation of such a destructive and demoralizing plan. IT makes all The difference in the world whose ox is' gored. In.lllinois the GRANT men at the State Convention found them selves in a large majority. So, as in these days resolutions of instructions are not held to have any binding effect amongst the disciples of the new political dispen sation, the majority there, very wisely concluded that they would rnot take any risks, .but select Delegates who were known to be for the ex-President, "first, last and all the time." This don't suit the BLAINE people, and they are howling about the matter, and protesting that it is unfair and arbitrary. 'l'tt the same day in Nebraska, the sane thing was done, only this time it is the GRANT men who arc rode over rough shod. The ma jority for BLAINE in Nebraska was pro portionally about the same as that for GRANT in Illinois, and the Nebraska BLAINE men gobbled up everything. In vain the GIANT minority plead for the right to elect by districts. There was no such tom-foolery allowed, but the BLAINE majority made everything solid. There are now two States where there won't be any violation of instructions,—and every body-will say that it is proper and repu table that it should be so. WASHINGTON last week had a boat race by way of variety. 'Not that the National Capitol is unusually dull, and wanting in sensations, butt this was the event of the season. It was a promised row between lIANLAN and COURTNEY. The importance of the event pervaded the entire community. Presidential bu reaus for the time forgot to send out their reliable estimates as to the prospect of their favorite candidates. Legislation . was postponed. The Departments closed an hour miller than usual on the event ful day to allow the overworked employes oT the government to witness the contest. The Heads of the Departnnints occupied conspicuous places by the Potomac's side, and it even hinted that the White House contributed to swell the =immense throng of spectators. 'After all these preparations, and the presence of so many distinguished civil and military and diplomatic personages the race was a It was worse : it was an awful fratid. The American champion, COURTNEY, scarcely made a feeble effort to row, and was disgracefdlly cleated. He has added to pi,. already smirched reputatiOn by an exhibition of want of pluck, or perhaps worsdi, which will ',event him from here after finding any backers. THE CHICAGO CONVENTION. The Republican. National Conven a:scmbles at Chicago, on Wednesday,: June 2ti,.at noon, to • nominate can didates for the Presidency and Vice Presidency. It is now very generally conceded that General GRANT will receive the nominationifor President on the ; first ballot Already 'a suffi cient limber of delegates have been chosen,.who either by instructionsor from preference are known to ;,be favorable to him, to ensure his suc cess, even should there .be, in some instances, a disposition to disregard -instructions. The certainty of his -nomination, will have the effect usually experienced in such bodies, of attracting to his support delegates who may not have any ardent attach. ment to• any candidate, or who may be influenced by the selfish consider ation 4f-desiring to support the win ning side. At all events, the shrewd est ealolators are :confident that UI.YSSES S. 'CI RANT will be nominated with thesame enthusiasm as marked his:success in the Chicago Convent tion of I s6B. , Tlie canvas:4' for ,the 'lnomination . has been marliud with features of unusual interest mid importance. If Gen. GRANT should be the candidate of, the Republican party, it will be an anomaly. as no - President has ever been presented .for a third `time for the suiTrageSof the American pdople: But the American p'eople have never passed through such trials as we have experienced during the past two. decades. The agonies and throes of the_nation's birth and, strugge for National I mlependence, were as noth ing compared_ with the sorrows and trials and burdens of the new birth, which has preserved the Union, it is true, but which also has impressed upon the people more ,strongly the lesson that "Eternal Viiilance is the price of .Liberty." The rebellion has been crushed, peace conquered, the " erring sisters "- restrained, but pas sions were aroused, prejudices created or deepened, tkotwithstanding the ex .ereise of a degree of forgiveness and ' forbearance towards the rebels with- out a parallel in history. Taking ad vantage of the leniency of the gov ernment, the Democratic" party, by adopting methods and plans repag nans. to morality, succeeded in re gaining-power in moat of the South ern States, and wittr the aid of their Northern adjuncts 2: gained control, first of the lowers House, and 'finally of the Senate, of the United States. Made leckless by the acquirement of I; rower, the Democratio majority soon manifested itself in its true colors. Revolutionary and incendiary legis lation was attempted : The intention was manifest to accomplish in Con gress what had failed to be conquer ed by 'the sword. It was declared that all the legislation made neces sary by the rebellion, to protect the loyal, or punish the disloyal, should be wiped off the statute books. So brazen was the attempt, so defiant the menace, •that at last the slow North was , aroused. There was gen- eral. alarm and apprehension. The people saw the Confederates in posses-. sion of the Congress of the Nation, and endeavoring to coerce, the Execu tive by refusing the -supplies neees- Buy for carrying on the operations of the Government. When these treasonable manifestations had thor oughly alarmed the people, the pop ular mind instinctively turned to find a candidate at the next Presidential election, whose name would be hail ed and accepted by the country as a safeguard, and at the same time carry with it so much chatacter and weight, as to deter the plotters from the con summation of schemes intended to rt steal the Presidency, should the peo ple decide at the- polls against the Democratic candidate. In this hour of seething peril, the public mind. says TnuitLow WEED, instinctively , turned ;.towards Gen. GRANT. No one will deny that there was also a unanimous demand that the great General should again be placed at the helm of State. His courage, his resolution, his genius, had once brought us safely through the storm of war.- his good sense and his unquestioned integrity had joined with his modesty" and patriot ism to elevate him in the opinion of his countrymen duriffg the eight 'years of this PresideneY, There was; no 'man who so largely filled the pub lic hope, to whom the people looked to with such entire confidence, when danger threatened. Was the univer sal, general, earnest demand for Gen. GRANT which made his nomination and re-election not only probable, but a necessity.. In the commoner ac ception of the term, Gen. GRANT has never been a candidate for the nomi nation. Iriends he' has had; it, is true, will; knowing ttwopular desire, have endeavored to respeci, it, and in a measure to give it coherence and effect, and who have not been dis posed to sit idly by and see, him de fiauded or pushed aside. But he haS not had any of the ordinary appli ances,inor used any of the common meanS . for promoting his nomination. Absent from the country, he has per son-/Ily had no part in the struggle. There have not been any'. literary bureaus, no associations, no concert ed action, on the part of hi“riends, to make him the Presidential candi- date. On the contrary, there has been a persistent, well organized, des perate effort to change public senti ment, to create prejudice through a senseless cry of " third term " and to detach from him those who could be influenced by any reasons, or reached by any considerations. No man ex cepting Gen. GRANT would stand a ghost of a chance of being nomina ted at Chicago, against whom had been directed such a tremendous and unceasing fire. That the public sen= timent of a yeall ago is still in active existence is shoWn by the fact that he will go into the* Convention with a clear majority of delegates. Anticipating the nomination of Gen. GRANT, we should accept it as the legitimate result of that instinc tive turning towards him, which was occasioned by the Jmanifestation of the revolutionary designs of the ma jority in Congress at the extra ses sion, coupled with the belief in the, - minds of the people as to his patriot.' iskt; his firmness • and his integrity, all Of which are found combined in_ such an eminent degree in few men. But should the choice of the Conven tion-fall upon some other oneof the distinguished men named, it will be evidence that the populat mind has been quieted, and there. exists no danger which calls for the re-election of Gen. GRANT: Whoever the noun nee may be, he should receive the cordial and'hearty support of every Republican. It is no time to' dilly dally, or quibble about trillesl The country should "be governed by the men Who saved the Nation from de- . struction, and whether or not person al preferences ,as to the ....andidate .shall be gratified is a matter of little moment. We lINVe a right to those preferences, and to express them free ly, but they' should give way, when the good of ; the country is at stake. THAT Gen. GRANT would decline to permit his name to go before the Chicago Convention, has been industriously circu lated..by those whose wish was father to the , thought. Now, however, all such nonsense is authoritatively set at rest, by the publication in the Galena Gazette Whose editor is a personal fribnd of Gen. GRANT, and knows whereof he assert's, of the following : "An item has been going the rounds of' the press asserting that GEORGE W. Crimps, of the Philadel phia Ledger, had stated that General GRANT would order his name withdrawn from the contest at the National Conven tion in Chicago. Neither GEORGE W. Ctizt.ns nor any one else has authority for making such an assertion. General GRANT'S name has never gone-before the public as a candidate for the Presidency by apy word or act of his own, and he mostcertainly will not order his name with r aven. A very large class of Ameri can eople have chosen, to make him their candidate, and if the Republican National Cont,:eution at Chicago sees fit to tender him the nomination he twill not decline it. This we know to. be a fact and we publish it because it is well that the Republicans 'of the country should cease to hold the matter in doubt" . ' • Tan Republican Convention of.llliards, which met last week, excited an unusual amount of interest throughout the coun try. :If . . Illinois with her 42 delegates failed to declare for Gen. GRANT, not only was the failure fatal to his prospects at Chicago, but it put him otherwise out of the field. The onslaught made,iby the friends of the other candidates was determined, and vigorous, but not with standing the coalition he was in the ma jority,,leaving out the Cook county dele gation of 92 delegates. The proceedings of the Convention were very animated, but after several test votes, showing that the friends of Giteax were in a decided majority, the Cook county trouble was settled by admitting parts of each delega tions. Finally after a long and very ex- citing discussion at 2 o'clock in the mor ning, it was decided, by a vote of 389 to 304, that a committee of the Canienthin, appointed by the Chair, should name all the delegates to Chicago. When the Convention reassembled, at 9 o'clock, the list of delegates was reported and the previoni question moved on its adoption. . The "roll was called amid much confusion, the Maine men refusing to vote. and the report was adopted. A resolution offered by General Logan was then adopted, in structing the delegates to Chicago to sup port General GRANT and vote as a unit. The Chairmamof the . Convention was' in structed to telegraph to General GRANT that "Illinois stands by him with _' 42 votes." There were loud cries of " no," but the motion was carried. to _protest from nineteen of the Cook county dele gates against the action of the Conven tion in regard to the delegatiOnifrom that county was then read ?and pat on the records. Senator LOGAN offered the fol lowing resolution, suggesting that it be the only platfoim adopted : " Resolved, that the Republidans of Illinois, in Con vention assembled, declare that they will support the nominees of this Convention for Statd;officers and the nominees of the Chicago Convention for President and Vice I4esident." The resolution was agreed to by _a rising vote, - all the dele gates rising to their feet as one man, and cheering enthusiai3tically.. A State ticket was then chosen, Governor CuLtost being renominated on the first - ballot. WILLIAM joNEs, the inventor of fric tion machines, died, recently at Chillico the, Ohio. About half a centnry•agO he pasted with 'starch buthe ends of small and rudely fashioned bits of stock a com pound of chlorate of potash and sulphate of antimony. At first his matches were made like a comb, a number of them be ing on the same piece, of wood, so that they could . broken off ' as wanted. They were at first called lcicofoco matches, And from the Locofoco party got its Darn°, these matches being used in the Van Bu ren convention at New York, after the lights had been put out by the opposition. Half a dozen years after Mr. JONES intro duced matches phosphorus was added to the composition and soon became one of the leading combustibles used. This use ful agent had been known for a hundred and fifty years, but it was expensive to produce and risky to handle. Modern improvements have reduced its cost , and vastly increased its production. The name Lucifer applied to matches refers to the morning star or "light bearer." LANCASTER County grows more tobacco and produces the queerest politicians of any County in this State, or foe that mat ter of any State in the Nation. Their . very political nomenclature is indicative of the nature of the beast--the different division's of the party being severally des ignated, as "Hog Ring" and "Bull Ring." For "ways that are dark and tricks . that• aro vain" they beat the heathen Chinee, by many , lengths. A Lancaster County politician would grow dizzy going a straight path; and if his per formance tallied with his promises, his neighbor would disown him Whether this universal political obliquity is owing to the demoralizing effects of the Craw ford County .System, the depressing ilk , tluence of the popular diet, or the bewil dering consequences of Lancaster beer, we could not say ; but one thing remains well established, and did not need the proof of recent events, that it- is not always safe to trust - a Lancaster County politician. On the contrary, quite the = IN the Senate, Wednesday,. Senator CAMERON presented the memorial of the citizens of Milton, Pa., lately destroyed by tire, for the erection of a new po4t. of fice building. Senator CAMERON called attention to the grievous nature of the misfortune suffered by the citizens of that town, and introduced a bill appropriAing $25,000 for the erection of a ; public build ing there, for which he asked immediate: consideration. Senator MoutuLL recuark4 ed!..that this bill proposed to introduce the { practice of building postoffices at small' interior towns. He did not obj,tct to giv- , ing the money, but thought the sill would be a bad precedent. Messrs. VOOR HEES, CAREE:ITEM, WALLACE and CONK. LIN supported the bill, the latter saying many smaller towns than Milton 'had been likewise provided for by the com mittee on public buildings and grounds. He thought objections came ungraciously to this particularly deserving case. Work Would be provided for many destitute people. The bill was read three times - and passed. Tim. Prohibition State Convention met at Alt Oona, on Monday last. There were present about one hundred delegates." lion. A. A. B.i o of Cambria was chosen president of the convention, and I. N. Pudadelphia and A.-B. T.IKI I.Ycom ing secretaries. G KORt:E Vutcr.n of Pittsburg was nominated f?r auditor general. The nomination of a candidate for supreme judge was left in the bands of the State Committee, to be reported hereafter. A resolution con demning the pardon of the Riot-bill bribers was adopted. Dr. A. C. PErrtv,' JANE* PARKE, Jr. I.lon. JAMES BLACK and •Hon. G. A. BARKER were chosen delegates-atJarge to the National Pro hibition Convention at Cleveland, June 17, with a full complement of . district delegates, Hon. JAMES BLACK and Hon. A.

TATE secretary. r THE Lancaster County primary elec tions were held on Saturday. Great ex citement existed, and much trading be tween the friends of the- different candi dates was indulged in. Money was used freely, and beer and whiskey flowed in vast quaiitities.• On the eve of the elec tion tickets were printed arid circulated for GRANT President, and QuAv for Unit ed States Senator. Congressman, SMITH carries the county by a majority of sever al thousand, and State Senator -Mrini ;was successful. The return judges met 'on Monday, and after a row, adjourned until ' Friday to canvass the votes. The whole affair is an-illustration of the beau ties of the CrawfordsCounty System. PHILADELPHIA LETTER. rLIILADELPIIIA, May 24, IMO The public generally, and financial' circles particularly, were staetled on Fri day by the announcement, teat the Read ing Coal and Iron Company had suspend ed payment, and soon followed the notice that the Reading Railroad Company bad also been unable 'to meet its payments. Substantially both companies are the same, and the failure of one involved necessarily the suspension of the other. The _news. affected - Third street very much as it would a horne'ta nest to be rudely disturbed. There was quite as much exeitement'on the street m at the memorable feline of Jay cooks. The brokers wore assiciss countenances, ;tend the office bOys lid telegraph mesairigent were kept busy . !leWaring messages It bad' been known . foisome time . that both companies had biaatt "hard up," but it was supposed generally that they would be able to tide over their difficulties. But the load was too' heavy, and after a long time of heroic struggling, Mr. Gowen has bad to succumb. The cause of the trouble is too many ir3llB in the fire, li;ot content with being a, common carrier, and doing business forother people, the Read ing Railroad Company aspired to control tho anthracite coal business, to mine and sell coal, and to manufacture , iron. So seventy millions of dollars vveSre invested in coal -lauds, in furnaces, and in iron collier?. for carrying omd to market. The business has not been renumprative, and a heavy loss his been yearly sustained. The English stockho:ders have stood up nobly in aid of Mr. Goweri, but without avail. Their ducats have been spent in a vain effort to save the company. The actual indebtedomiof the companies is enormous, behl stated at about $138,- 000,000. The Mx* of the Reading Road was selling on Thursday at 28, but by Saturday it, had been knocked down to 10 —and everybody unloading. Of course heavy losses were experienced, but the failures were feat and, unimportant, show- ing the solidity of business. The corn- panics will"probably go into the hands of a receiver. I At a recent meeting of the Board of City Trusts, of' Philadelphia, it was agreed to appropriate $50,000 for building a new infirmary at Girard College, and a further sum o'. $lOO,OOO for other addi tionssutlicient for the accommodation of one hundred and sixty additional or- phans About seven years ago the body of Mr. William Blandford, a police officer, who died at the age of 70 years, was interred in the north bile of the Philanthropic Cemetery, at Paisytink avenue and Nor ris Street,. in this city. Last week the coffin was disinterred, with a view of its being taken to the Odd Fellows' Ceme tery. Its extreme weight (over 400 pounds) provokt4 remark, and investiga tion profited tha: the body was entirely petrified. The superintendent of the cemetery recalls the fact that about twenty years age, when the body of a man which had been buried' for three years wap ; disinterred, it was found as hard .asi stone, and so solid that the corpse could have been placed in a stand ing position likea block of marble. ; This grave was in tln vicinity of thu one in which Mr. Blandford's holy was in terred, and as the ground in that neigh borhood is extronely.lainp it is supposed that there is sore mineral substance in the water which-acts upon the bodies and produces petrification. The National Itepablicanleague, which is lighting stoutly against the nonlination of General Grant' for a third term, met Friday afternoon for au informal discus- . sion of the prospects. W. Botch Wister - presided, and a number of persons from other States were present. The upshot of all ;was the deter'mination to send a delegation to Chi ago in which quality, not quantity, should preponderate.- With there fellows " quality " is everything. There isn't one cf them who does not think that he comprises most remarkably all the essential requisites for a proper candidate for President, and that there is nobody else whc completely " fills the bill." Still they are willing to live under the administratfra .of some President if they can only be allowed to name.hirri. The se " quality' gentlemen will be sadly ; out of place at Chicago and the result will be, that they 'will come home and talk about the cl!generacy of the times, and when election day comes forget to vote—as usual. The Democrats Pace Commission, of which Hon. A. 11. Dill is chairman, met at the Girard rouw, in this city; last week. The committee had a full, free and friendly -soafetence with gentlethen ,rePressenting each organization of the party in this city, and were gratified to find an unamimvus letermination to bury j all past differences: They resolved, how ever, not to take tp tho question of ad justment until July Bth.

An opportunity vas offered on Friday evening to West Philadelphians, at Sal vation Hall, that nay never occur again, and which would rot have occurred had Misses Price and Isightly been aware of the mental capacity of Alex. S. Lidgate. When the lattei took the floor to exhort sinners to walk up and be saved, lie as tonished and sliccked his hearers by claiming to be the redeemer and saajpur of mankind, and declared his pOwer to convert souls in the twinkling of an eye. That his remailo created considerable excitement, every one can fully under stand. How long he wound have contin ued with his remarks is something left to the imagination, but he was cut off by Miss Price breaking in on him with hymn, after which ho desired to coiitinac. but was emphatically ruled out. Lidgate is well known in the Presbyterian Hos pita!, where his strange behavior was the source of much amusement to the other patients during the time ho was there. Mr. Joseph E. Temple, who made such a magnificent contribution to the Acad emy of Fine Arts, haS just tendered a munificent gift, in the form of a complete chime of bells, to the Protestant Episco pal Church of the Holy Trinity, Nine teenth and Walnut streets. Mr. Temple's proposition has limn promptly and cor dially accepted by the vestry of the church, and a committee had been ap pointed to arrange to carry it into effect. This liberal contribution of Mr. Temple's, which proabably involve an expendi ture of $lO,OOO, should a ,complete chime be agreed upon, will give. to Philadelphia its first full chimeof bells. Representatives of the labor element of the National-Greenback-Labor party from several of the States met• at James L. Wright's residence, in this city, on Tues day night and nominated a Presidential ticket, consisting of Ilendrick • B. Wright for President, and John B. Cham berlain, of Texas, for Vice President. This was done to head off the Greenback element, who propose to put up a ticket with General Butler in the first place. ' Census Supervisor White has had his hands full in appointing the enumerators in his district. iseleclions did not suit anybody, and he has had to revise his list.

The sub-committee of the House Com mittee on Coinage, Weights an?
