'•THE ABSTBACT ANJDJBEIEF CHONICLE3 OF
Every reader of Macaulay’s fascinating his
tory of England, will remember the constant
reference made by the historian to the “eight
' by-ten” newspapers of the eras, the history of
which he narrated. His “foot-notes” fre
quently tell of the sources from whence he pro
cured his information, and while important se
crets were acknowledgedly obtained from pub
lic records in the Foreign office, and from the
correspondence of the intriguing French Am 7
bassadors of the day, yet, the great pulse of
the people was felt through the the news
papers. And these old English newspapers
and “ newsletters” were scarcely more like
their journalistic successors upon both sides
of the Atlantic than a Comly’s spelling-book
of our own school days was like a modern cy
clopaedia. There were then no telegraphs or
locomotives, nor scarcely even regular mails;
war correspondents were unknown, and the,
great events of the day, which would now oc
cnpy pages of detail, were then dismissed with
a single half intelligible paragraph. Yet from
such- scanty materials the historian has been
able to draw his inferences of the tone and
temper of the times..
Tt requires neither a prophet nor the son of
a prophet to anticipate the value that files of
modern newspapers will prove to the historian
of after times when the record of the great
rebellion comes to be written from a stand
point far in the future. There will be
mistakes in fact, and discrepancies in statement
to be noticed; but they will generally be easily
reconciled and the truth readily deduced from
them, and the very form and spirit of the stir
ring times we live in will be shown to our
.great- great-grandchildren.' •
We do not purpose to go into a dissertation
upon how the future historian will dwell with
amazement upon the record of the degradation
that Franklin Fierce and James Buchanan
brought upon the country; of the insolence
such rule as theirs bred in one section, nor
upon the supineness under contumely and in
sult which- distinguished the opposite section;
we will not dilate upon how the inevitable re
action finally came about, and of how a great
and generous people, stung to just anger
by the last great blow at their forbear
ance dealt at Sumter, sprang to arms to
revenge the insults of the nation
and to preserve its threatened existence.
The meanest spectacle of all to be developed
in the future, by the printed columns of the
present, will be the fact that,in a section where
freedom has been the rule for a century, and
had commenced, apologists for the great bane
of the nation were to be found, who not only
advocated the continuance of the curse that
had well nigh tumbled the country in rnins;
but who aided and abetted by word and act the
traitors who had raised their parricidal hands
to strike at the life of the nation which had
cherished and protected them. Posterity will
see, too, with wonder that these same apolo
gists for treason not only failed to aid the cause
of the nation by word or deed; but that while
fkiling to censure the vile traitors in arms
against their nationality, -they let pass no op
portunity to revile and disparage every one
upon the loyal side, from the President and
his cabinet, down to the humblest citizen who
gave voice, influence or means towards the pro
secution of the War for the Union. We would
as lief rank in history with. Judas Iscariot, Cat
aline, Titus Oates, Hobespierre, Benedict Ar
nold or Jeflersoa Davis, as with the conductors
of the Copperhead press of the times or with
the Heeds, the Tallandighams, the Bayards, the
Whartons and the Ingersolls of the present
day.
It has been well said that there is nothing so
imperishable as printed paper, and those who
have been recreant to their country in this
time of its trial might as well have their infamy
recorded on monumental stone, or inscribed
npon brass, as to figure in the newspaper* of
the day. Upon the other hand, future genera
tions of democratic republican Americans will
hless the memory of such of their ancestors as,
in the time of the great peril of the republic’
are recorded among those who stood by the
country and gave freely of .their blood and
their substance in aid of the glorious cause.
When the chronicles of thesg times come to be
overhauled, how nobly will the names'of some
private citizens show. In Sanitary Commis
sions^—in the Christian Commission in Relief
funds—in Volunteer bounty funds—in rinsing
and fitting out regiments—in subscriptions, in
aid of the families of soldiers, and in provision
for the sick and wounded defenders of the
country, how nobly will the names ; of some de
yoted men and women shine beside those of
the narrow-souled and the lukewarm, who at
tempt to screen their innate littleness by a pre
tence of v?ant of means, or who, boldly taking
the other ground, declare their unwil-
Bhgness to afford help in “this Abolition war.”
We can only say of the patriotism of this last
described class of people what a clergyman
once, said of thepiety of a man who boasted
Ahat.be had -been a professor of religion for
rthirty years apii that it had never cost him a
single cent. “God-lielp your stingy soul, 33 was
the emphatic response of the clergyman; and
God help the stingy souls of those whose
in these times of heroic sacrifice and: noble ex
ertion axe.found among thoseyvbo are neither
in arms themselves, por aiding to put men in
and who S ive nothing towards feeding
S ° 0r his family, or towards bindingnp
the wounds of those who have fallen and bled
m the great cause of Freedom and the Union.
J3nt most emphatically of all, we say “Go’dhelp
the stingy souls 33 °f those sham loyalists who
not only fail to give their mite voluntarily in
mid of the cause, but who grumble at ties
sneer at the best efforts of soldiers and* tates
men, etemaUy predict disasters, habitually re
iuse to acknowledge successes* gamble in
gold, swindle the government, and do every
thing but their duty as manly and patriotic citi
zens. Of most of these men, except as a class
the newspapers are silent; we would like to see
them “damned to everlasting fame, 33 and to
have them go down to posterity in company
THE TIME.”
and in pitiful contrast (in respect to example)
with those whose names figure constantly in
connection with the great patriotic and humani
tarian movements of the day.
DEATH OF DR- JOHN REDMAN COXE.
Dr. John Redman Coxe,, a venerable, • and at
ore time a distinguished practicing physician of
this city, died yesterday. Dr. Ooxe was born in
Trenton, New Jersey, on the sixteenth of Sep
tember, 1773, and was educated in Philadelphia,
under the charge oi his grandfather, Dr. John
Hetman, until his tenth year, when he went to
•England, where he remained at school until his
seventeenth year, when he visited Edinburgh to
compete bis classical education, and while there
a a tended a course of medical lectures at the Uni
versity.- He returned to America in 1790, and at
once commenced the study of medicine with Dr.
Benjamin Hush, with whom, he remained until
1794, when he received his diploma, “While With
Dr. Hush he was actively engaged in practice
during the visitation of the yellow fever, in 1793.
Immediately after' graduating, he went again to
Londoh, where he became a pupil at the JUon--
don Hospital, and remained nearly a year. He
then went again to Edinburgh, where he
attended a course of lectures at the Uni
. versity. From there he journeyed tr Paris, where
h 6 pursued hU medical studies for three mouths,
and then returned to London, where he spent
several months in the hospials.. 'He returned to
the United States, and settled In Philadelphia in
the winter 0f1796-7, when he at once entered npon
the active practice of hi 6 profession.
Dr.Qoxe was appointed, by the board of Health,
physician to the port during the second visitation
of the yellow fever, in 1798, and was for several
years one of tbe physicians of the Pennsylvania
Hospital.and also of the Philadelphia Dispensary.
In 1809 he was elected Professor of Chemistry in
the University of Pennsylvania, from v hlch chair
he was transferred, in 1818, to that of Materia
Medica and Pharmacy, which he held until 1835.
For many years fie has been leading the retired
life of a student. Dr. Coxe was one of the earliest
introducers of vaccination into the c nited States,
and was the first to introduce it into this city, and
for more than fifty years his name has been a
household word in connection with the hive syrup
which he invented.
DEATH OF AXING.
King Maximilian 11, of Bavaria, died on the
11th inst.. at Munich. He was born Nov. 28th,
1811, so that he was in his fifty-third year. He

abdication of King Louis, the eccentric lover o*
Lola Montez and patron of the fine arts, Who is

Equitable Life Assurance Society.
Since the first of December, 1663. THE EQUIT
ABLE LIFE ASSURANCE SOO'ETY has
issued OTer NINE HUNDRED POLICIES, as
suring an aggregate of %hout THREE MILLION
DOLLARS. Tne Society has outstanding risks to
the amonA of Eleven Million Dollars, and its in
come for the year 1861 will reach ttu handsome
snm of five hnndred thousand dollars. No Life
Insurance Company ever organized in this country
can show so proud a record of immediate success,
and prompt, progressive prosperity. To have se
cured an income of half a million dollars in the
filth year of its existence, is an achievement of
which any organization may well afford to bsast.
In reipect to the expenses of the Equitab'e So
ciety, it is the fact that their ratio HAS BEEN
LESS THAN THATOF ANYLTFE OOMPAHY
ORGANIZED WITHIN A DOZEN YEARS.
The Company’s losses have, moreover, been
comparatively few,up to this time; having in their
number fallen far short of the regularly received
tables of expectation upon which the science of
life insurance is based. The Equitable Society is
purely mutual in its operations, every cent of
profit over the actual cost of llsoring being divi
ded among the policy holders, who are thus made
members, as it were, of a mutual benefit ass ela
tion- The officers and directors of the Company
are well-known as among our foremost clt’z-ne,
