ME ATLANTIC MONTHLY ON THE HMI .
BENTIAL ELECTION.
The .tltlantic Monthly, for May, concludes an
article on the next Presidential Election as
ollows :
cc As there should be no change made in the
political character of the Government, so there
should be none in the men who compose it.
To place power in new hands, at a time like the
present, would be as unwise as it would be to
raise a new army for the purpose of fighting
the numerous, well-trained, and zealous force
which the rebels have organized with the inten
tion of making a desperate effort tore-establish
their affairs. There is no reason for supposing
that a change would:give ns wiser or better men,
and it is certain that they would be inexperi
enced men, should they all be as many S olo
mons or S ohms. As we are situated, it is men
of experience that we require to administer the I
Government ; and out of the present Ad
ministration it is impossible to find men of the
kind of experience that is needed at this crisis
of the nation's career. The errors into which
we fell in the early days of the contest were
the effect of want of experience; and it would
be but to provide for their repetition, were we
to call a new Administration into existence.
The people understand this, and hence the
vary general expession of opinion in favor• of
tre re-election of President Lincoln, whose
training through four most terrible years—
years such as no other President ever knew—
will have qualified him to carry on the Govern
ment during a second term to the satisfaction
of all unselfish men. Mr. Lincoln's hon
esty is beyond question, and we need an
honest man at the head of the nation now more
than ever. That the rebels object to him is a
recommendation in the eyes of loyal men.
The substitution of a new man would not dis
pose them to submission,
and they would ex
pect to profit from that inevitable change of
policy which would follow from a change of
men. As to "the one-term principle," we
Itever held it in much regard; and we are less
dosed to t approve it now ,than we should
have been, had peace been maintained. Were
the President elected for six or eight years, it
might be wise to amend the Constitution so as
to prevent the re-election of any man; but
while the present arrangement shall'exist, it
it would not be wise to insist upon a
complete change of', Government every
four years. To hold out the Presidency
as a prize to be struggled for by nefr men at
every national election is to increase the troubles
of the country. Among the causes of the Civil
War the ambition to be made President must
be reckoned. Every politician has carried a
term at the White House in his portfolio, as
every French conscript carries a marshal's
beam in his knapsack; and the disappointments
of so many aspirants swelled the number of the
disaffected to the proportions of an army,
counting all who expected office as the conse
quence of this man's or that man's elevation to
the Presidency. Were there no other reason
for desiring the re-election of President Lin
coln, = the fact that it would be -the first
step toward a return to the rule that obtained
during the first half -century of our national ex
isting under the existing Constitution should
suffice to make us all advocates of his nomina
tion for a second term. That the Baltimore
Convention will meet next month, and that it
will place Mr. Lincoln once more before the
American people as a candidate for their suf
frages, are facts now as fully established as
anything well can be that depends upon the fu
ture ; and that he will be re-elected admits of
no doubt. The popular voice designates him
as the man of the time and the occasion, and
the action. of the Convention will be nothing
ILADELPHIA. SATURDAY. AP
beyond a formal process, that shall give regular
expression to a public sentiment which is too
strong to be denied, and which will be found of
irresistible force."
CITY BULLETIN.
LIBERALITY OP THE CITY PASSENGER RAIL
WAYS.—At a late meeting of the Committee on
Labor, Income and Revenue of the Great Cen
tral Fair, held at the Board of Trade Rooms,
the following communication was read :
PHILADELPHIA April 20, 1864--. L. Mont
gomery Bond, Esq., Chairman, 4-c.: DEAR
San: Your application to the Board of Presi
dents of the City Passenger Railways for one
day's receipts of each company, to be appro
priated to the Great Central Fair of the Sani
tary Commission, was received and considered
yesterday, when on motion, it was unanimously
agreed that this Board recommend a favorable
response by each railway company to this appli
cation. Yours, very truly,
HENRY CROSEEY, Secretary.
We understand that the Second and Third
Streets Passenger Railway give this Commit
tee ccone day's revenue" of their road on
Thursday next; also, that the West Philadel
phia (Market Street) Railway give their "re
venue of Thursday" next to the same Com
mittee. The one day's revenue of the Spruce
and Pine Streets Road on Monday, we pre
sume, is also for this Committee. In connec
tion herewith we might also add that a vote of
thanks was unanimously tendered to the
Frankford and Southwark Railway for their
liberal contribution of $905 20 to this Com
mittee, being one day's revenue of this road.
On the recommendation of the Board of
Presidents other Railways will undoubtedly act
similarly.
RESTORED TO THE SERYICE.—The dismissal
of Capt. F. A. Donaldson, of the Corn Ex
change Regiment, on charges preferred against
him by Col. James Gwin, has been revoked by
the special order of President Lincoln, and he
was restored to his command, since which his
resignation has been accepted. He is now at
liberty to again enlist in the service of his
country. This Regiment has now bat one Cap
tain left, and he is finder arrest by order of
Gen. Meade. The following letter from Adj.
Gen. Russell explains the matter :
ITARDISBURH, Pa. April Bth, 1864.—F, -I.
Donaldson Esq.:—Yours of 4th inst. is re
ceived. .Notitication from the War Depart
ment has been received ci that the disability
resting upon Captain Frank A. Donaldson, on
account of his dismissal. from the service, as
Captain 118th Reg. Penna. Volunteers, under
the sentence of a General Court Martial, ' is:re.
moved so far as to allow his return to the ser
vice, if a new command be given him."
Very Respectfully, kc. '
A. L. RUSSELL,
Adj.-Gen'l Penna.
Docx Camtx.—Some old buildings on Dock
and Front streets, and extending tlgeugh from
,
one to the other of the streets eamed, have
recently- been demolished, and s very large
store-house is about to be erected upon their
site. The foundation wall upon Dock street
will rest upon the marshy ground which *A
ginally formed the bank of Dock creek, and it
has been found necessary to drive piles in order
to secure a substantial foundation. Dock creek
has long been an obsolete institution; but the
water-course makes itself manifest whenever
the spade trenches upon its ancient domain.
The BULLETIN Building stands almost directly
in the bed of the creek, and we are occasionally
reminded of .the fact by a watery visitation in
the yress-room of the establishment.
AN AORBEADLS CHANGE.--For once in many
weeks we have sunshine on Saturday. The
Weather to-day is lovely, and as a consequence
the ladies were out in full force on Chestnut
street this morning. The young ladies will
have an opportunity of attending the Germania
Rehearsal this afternoon, and as this will be the
last concert but one, Musical Fund Hall will
doubtless be crowded. Rainy Saturdays have
got to be such a usual circumstance in this
latitude, that we would not like co venture the
prediction that the remainder of the day and
evening will pass over without a shower.
PHILADELPHIA HAS ALWAYS BEEN NOTED for
her taste in matters of dress, and we venture to
say that no city in the world can produce such
Cloaks and Mantillas as are manufactured by
M. Lefevre k Co., at 704 Chestnut street.
Madame Lcfevre gives her personal attention
to the fitting of all articles sold by them, and
we are glad to learn that the establishment is
so largely patronized by ladies' of taste and
judgment. All our lady friends are enthu
siastic in their praise of Madame Lefevre's new
styles and patterns.
Tim UNION BOAT CLUB.—On - the Ist proxi
mo the annual regatta of this club will take
place on the - river Delaware, from Ken
sington Water Works to Torresdale and return.
The following yachts comprise the -fleet:

0. Hammen, Hnry Burrito and Jonathan Dick
erson. The Union Boat Club is generally
known as the Mosquito fleet.
STILL AI7OTLIER PASSENGER RAILWAY ACCl-
DENT.—Accidents upon the city passenger rail
way lines appear to be, of daily occurrence now.
Yesterday afternoon a Race and Vine street car
ran over a little fellow named Richard Howard,
aged two years, and he was so badly injured
that he died in a short time. The accident
happened at Bread and Race streets. The pa
rents of the unfortunate lad reside at No. 146
Bread street. Coroner Taylor will hold an in
quest in the case this afternoon.
CHARGED WITH BURGLARY.—Frank BIDOITICE
was arrested yesterday afternoon upon the
charge of having robbed the hardware store of
Mr. William H. Allen, on Market street, above
Front. The robbery took place on Sunday
morning last, when an entrance was effected
into the store, and goods to the value of $l,BOO
were earned of. The police haie also re
covered' the stolen property. Tne prisoner
will have a hearing this afternoon.
FATAL RICSIILT or A RAILWAY ACCIDDNT.--•
James Sanders, aged seven years, who was
knocked down and run over by a Green and
Coates Streets Railroad car, at Eighth and
Spruce streets, on Wednesday afternoon, died
from the effects of his injuries yesterday at the
Pennsylvania Hospital.
Patrick Hayes, the driver of the car was ar
rested, and was locked up to await the result of
the Coroner's investigation.
; -1 DaowNum Cesz.- 7 -The body of an unknown
white man was found yesterday in the Schuyl
kill at Sansorn street wharf,and taken in charge
by the Coroner. The deceased was.about 35
years of age, dark whiskers and hair, check
shirt, army undershirt, blue pants and blouse.
OUR WHOLE COUNTRY
RECRU lTlNG.—Enlistments - during the past
week have not been as brisk as during the pre
vious ones. The total amount of the warrants
issued for the payment of the city bounty to
volunteers credited to the city, since last Sat
urday, is $43,750. This represents the en
listment of one hundred and seventy-five men.
The number issued to-day was twenty-two.
LaacEriv.—A boy about 12 years of age was
arrested yesterday and taken before Alderman
Kennedy, upon the charge of the larceny of
two brass boxes valued at $l5. It is said that
he attempted to sell the boxes for eight cents.
He was committed.
SERIOUS BURNING. - Between 11 and 12
o'clock last night Catharine Robinson, aged 45
years, was seriously burned by her clothes tak

RATHEn Too LOVDTG.—Mary Ann Matthew
was before Ald. Beitler, this morning, upon the
charge of the larceny of a watch. It seems
that she accosted a gentleman at Water and
Willow streets, about nine o'clock last evening,
and threw her aims around his neck. This was
rather too loving for the gentleman, and he at
tempted to put her away. While in this act,
Mary Ann managed to bite off his watch-guard,
and the time-keeper attached thereto disap
peared. A policeman was called, and the
young woman was given into custody. What
became of the watch is a mystery. It is sup

THE /31PROVED ELLIPTIC LOCK-STITCH
Sawlnn Macnitsk, No. ;01 Chestnut Street, N.
W. Lorner of Seventh, possesses such real merits
as will be of sufficient guaranty to the purchaser,
without the necessity of resorting to the 1001
reasons of the braggadocia order to recommend it.
It is no new experiment, but has heen thoroughly
tested for the past eight years in this city, upon all
kinds of goods of family wear; and we fully- war
rant it for—
Stitching the finest 'or coarsest fabrics; for
hemming, felling, tucking, braiding, gathering,
~
It is undoubtedly the simplest, strongest, most
datable and speediest machine in existence.
Upon the above point we do challenge all others,
with any forfeiture, for a public comparison of the
relative merits.
We warrant all machines as represented, and
all to be new and not ever having been returned
into the office after tares , months' use by ethers as
defective. The Elliptic is not of this class of
Machines.
WHERE THEY WOULD STEER FOR.—A gen
tleman once said he should like to see a boat full
of ladies adrift on the ocean, to see what course
they would steer. A lady in the room replied,
"That's easily told—they would steer to the Isle of
of Man, to be.sure, Particularly if the inhabitants
thereof had wit enough to render them
selves attractive by wearing the elegant gar.
ments made at the Brown Stone Clothing Hall of
Rockhill .fc Wilson, 603 and 605 Chestnut Street,
above Sixth."
TUB PrfiSDTr OP Goon TfintGB.—Persons in
the pursuit of luxuries (if they are prompted by a
lively intelligence, and governed by sufficient in
formation) seldom fail to visit the popular Con
fectionery establishment of E. G. Whitman Sc Co.,
No. 315' Chestnut street, below Fourth. These gen
tlemen always use the best and purest materials,
they employ the best possible skill; and they scrupu
lously discard all unwholesome components. To
learn how excellefit Confectionery can be made,
and to ascertain hOw the stomach and the palate
can be served and gratified at the same time, it is
only necessary to try E. G. Whitman & Co s Con
fections.

Bather than deteriorate the quality of his wares.
that his prices may seem not to be in excess of
former rates,he prefers to maintain their excellence
at former standards, and to exceed,as little as pos

Memo Hove 11.Lurr.,-Araerkg the most
prominent evils of the age is ihe practice of
allowing boys to spend their ; evenings away
from the family circle. It is this night educa
tion in the street, which transforms the bright
promising youth into the rowdy, dissolute, law
less man. The first great duty of parents is to
make borne cheerful and pleasant. In order to
-guard children from the contaminating in
tluences of evil society, parents and guardians
should see that their children are supplied with
some cheerful entertainment at home. They
should give them an opportunity of improving
their minds by gaining useful knowledge, and
furnish them with books, the expense of which
would be far less, than to provide them with
funds for amusements away from home. If pa
rents do their whole duty in interesting their 1
children &tiring the evenings, it will prevent
them from associating with the vile and aban
doned that throng the streets ; and with proper
treatment they will exhibit no disposition to
wander from home. Many youths of good na
tural abilities have been ruined by substituting
the street and places of public resort for the
family fireside. The habits of the boy will cling
to the man. His standing and usefulness in
life will depend upon the training received un
der the domestic roof. Thousands of boys who
would otherwise have inscribed their names
upon the roll of immortality, have been ruined
by unhappy homes or the want of a cheerful
domestic circle. Youth is fond of pleasure,
and if deprived of it at home, naturally goes
elsewhere to seek it.--N. -Y. Suu.
A LADIES' Dr - EL.—Much amusement (says a
letter from Brussels) has been excited at the
idea of a kind of duel which was nearly taking
place at Ghent between two ladies of that place.
The husband of Mme. de S . belongs to the Cler
ical party, while the other lady, Mine. de M., is
married to a Liberal. These two ladies being
at a ball, it so chanced that the former had to
stand opposite the latter in a cotillion, but
which she would only consent to on condition
that she would not give her hand to her adver
sary, and she was therefore to be seen going
through all the figures in which she ought to
have joined hands, with her arms folded. The
affair caused a considerable sensation. On the
following day M. de S. called on M. de M. to
make an apology for the conduct of his wife,
when he received for answer that the matter
did not concern him (M. de M.), and that Mme.
de S. ought to send her seconds to his wife to
arrange the affair. That was done, and the
emissaries were told that the insult having
been public, the reparation should be so like
wise. Negotiations were, however, entered
into, and a decision was aelength come to that
at a party at which the ladies were to shortly
meet, Mine. de S. should personally apologize
to Mine. de M., which was done, and honor was
declared to be satisfied.
A CHANGE IN THE SYSTEM OF FIRE ALARM
TELEGILO.II.—On and after the 28th inst., the
existing division of the city into Fire Alarm
Districts and sub-division of Districts into Sta
tions, and the method of giving alarms by Dis
tricts and Stations will be discontinued. The
Fire Alarm boxes haw been numbered from
one upwards (omitting large numbers) and after
12 o'clock M. of the day named alarms will be
sounded by striking the number of the box
directly upon the bells, thus announcing to the
firemen and citizens the exact locality of a fire,
without mating It necessary to consult both the
alarm bells and signal boxes as heretofore.
For example; to announce a fire near box No.
36, (Fire alarm office, Court-square)__the bells
will strike 8, make a pause of a few seconds,and
then strike 6, thus: 3-6; lifter waiting for half
a minute,this same combination will be repeated.
For a fire near box No. 145 (South Boston
Point), the bells will strike 1, then make a
pause, then strike 4, another plase, and then
strike 5. The gongs in the engine houses, the
bells in the police stations and the small bells
in signal boxes will give the same • intelligence
in the same manner. East Boston is to be
known by the number 152.—Boston

hopeless enterprise could be undertaken than
to attempt to reclaim the great African desert
of Sahara, where no rain ever falls, and there

weary and fainting caravans that traverse
Modern science, however,
laughs at seeming
impossibilities. Skillful engineers' in the
French army in Algiers proposed to sink Ay

confidence that thus water could be reached
and forced to the surface. In 1860, five Arte

vegetation thrives luxuriantly, thirty thousand
palm-trees and one thousand fruit trees were
planted, and two thriving villages - established.
At the depth of .a little over five hundred feet,
an underground river or lake was -atruck, and
from two of them live fish have been thrown
up, showing that there was a large body water
underneath. - The French Government by this

and thus to bring the whole overland- ravel and

THE BOSTON' MILK TRADE.-Mr. Henry Fax
on, Inspector of Milk in Boston, in his recent
annual report to the Mayor and Aldermen,
states that in general the milk furnished to pri
vate families in that city by the milkmen is free
from adulteration. The quality of the milk,es
pecially if adulterated, is in proportion as the
grade of society descends, so that the poorer
class, who buy in small quantities from small re
tail places, get the most- water with their milk.
There are no factories for the mtmufacture of
milk in this vicinity, as some have believed.
Only a small portion of the milk is produced
within five miles of this city, and there need be
no fears of swill milk from diseased trine. While
many of the milkmen do a fair, honest business
and supply their customers with pure . milk,
others dilute largely with water. A low : '
eaiti•
mate of one man's water trade amounted:4o
more than $l,OOO a year, and• he was not the
greatest offender.--Apion Teem/.

HOW GARBALDI LOS.
An English paper g i ves the following descrip
tion of Gen. Garibaldi's personal appearance,
at first sight, on board the steamship that had
conveyed him to England :
I was one of the first people on board, and
after a few moments' hesitation as to which
way we should turn, in the wilderness of
ayahs, Anglo-Indians, lady passengers, inva
lids, children and luggage,
wherein we find
ourselves, we hear that the General is in the
saloon, and at once proceed thither. On, pro•
ceeding thither I hear a full-toned, but sweet
voice, saying, , g Better, better, I -thank yen
much," in reply to inquiries as to his foot, some
minutes before that voice's owner is visible to
me, and it is impossible to avoid envying Mr.
Negretti and Mr. Joseph Cowen as they are
severally invited to greet their old friend. Te
ye 4_
cabin is by this time full, and the natural eag •
ness of these yet outside is so far unalla d,
when by a change of positions I obtain my first
glimpse of the general. He is seated on his
conch, with sling cigar -case and
courier's bag himg np overhead, is
shaking hands warmly with "Friend
Joseph Cowen," is asking after the good town
of Newcastle, and gracefully acknowledging to
all around the many kindnesses he has re
ceived. Leaning on his walking stick, and _
limping slightly, he proceeds,
accompanied , by
all ails, to the cushioned seat at the end of the
saloon. In truth a kingly looking man, some
five feet eight inches in height, he is broadly
built, and his presence is pre-eminently com
manding; he has a broad . and lofty brow," soft
and gentle eyes, which sparkle with humor and
playfulness, a full-sized, well-shaped nose, as
massive jaw, indicative of power, and a smie _
which a woman might envy. He wore light
and thin trowsers, smartly made. patent leather
boots, a silver grey gabardine with a scarlet lin
ing or hood, and an embroidered smoking cap,
which looked as if it had been worked by some
fair admirer. A black silk handkerchief round
his neck—of coarse no collar—and a light crim
son bandana thrown loosely over the shotddenr,
completed a costume which, for picturesqUe
ness, it would be difficult to equal. The im
pression produced on me was that I saw before
me one who was
"In strength a man, simplicity a child;"
and as he gave his cordial and hearty greeting
to each new and old friend who pressed
forward to clasp him by the band,. it was im
possible to avoid the conclusion that we were
in the presence of one eminently qualified by
nature to sway -a nation and secure its sym
pathies. In repose his countenance is lion
like in its gentle gravity and conscious strength;
when animated, it lights up in a way I can only
compare to the effect of sunshine upon as
already beautiful landscape. He understand's
English perfectly, but speaks it with a slightly
foreign accent, and it may interest some
readers to know that on my shaking hands with
him we reciprocated right heartily the peculiar
grip only known to
“Brethren of the, mystic lie.,”
“AximrEK "good storY is -circu
lating among the wags and joke-lovers of the
town, at the expense of a chap who- recently
advertised for a wife. As hear the yarn
it runs about as follows: The ambitions matri
monial chap received an exquisitely-worded
billet dortz, in a feminine hand of the purest
copper-plate stamp on delicate paper, redolent
with the aroma of a lady's boudoir, which re
quested a meeting on Michigan avenue at half
past eight o'clock on Sunday evening. The.
delighted recipient was prompt to the hour,
and met a lady closely veiled, who_ took his
arm and conducted him in silence to one of the
handsomest mansions on the avenue. They
entered the gate, and then with a thrilling
“sh-h-h!” the lady led him by the hand in at
the basement door, through a long - passage,
into an apartment shrouded in darkness. -
chair was placed behind him and he sat down.
Immediately after he felt a pair of hands,at his
feet, and his boots were dexterously withdrawn;
his coat was next slyly whipped off; then his
cravat was untied and removed from his neck.
The young man's "phelinks" during this ope
ration may be imagined, but there was a
stronger sensation before him. Suddenly the
gas-light flashed up, and as soon as he could
accustom his eyes to the glare he discovered
himself in a kitchen, surrounded by a bevy of
servant men and maids, who made the room •
resound with laughter. To add to his horror
the door opened, and the lady of the house
entered, clad in beauty and silks, and bent
upon him a pair of wondering black eyes. •
Young man exhibited signs of fainting, but
by the assistance of the coachman was safely
removed to the outside of the house, where he
resumed his boots and other raiment, and de
parted with a whole regiment of fleas-buzzing -
away in his ears. Future applicants for
crmeetings" with that young 'man will be
treated with "silent contempt.”—Detroit ..a—
