PENNSYLVANIA POE LINCOLN. The Union party of Pennsylvania, through their State Convention, have for mally expressed their preference for Abra ham Lincoln for the next Presidency. No other candidate was spoken of, so complete was the unanimity in his favor. If there had been any other result than this, or if there had been any show of opposition to Mr. Lincoln, it would have been properly denounced as unfair and unworthy. The people of this State never had so great con fidence in Mr. Lincoln as they have now. This has been shown in all the local con ventions, as well as in the State Legislature and the State Convention. • Those who have tried to create an impression that there was any hostility to Mr. Lincoln's re nomination among the National Union men have spoken falsely, as this action of the Harrisburg - Convention plainly shows. Henceforth there will be no opposition to Mr. Lincoln in Pennsylvania except among the so-called Democrats. The delegation from this State to the Baltimore Conven tion will be influential.and respectable, and we believe that the delegations from all, or nearly all, the other States will most heartily unite with them in the re-nomi nation of Mr. Lincoln. His election by an overwhelming, majority is as nearly certain as any future event can be. MAXIMILIAN d , His Majesty, the Emperor of Mexico," is now,eonsidered a real monarch by most of the official journals of Europe, and his movements and appointraentare duly and gravely recorded. He affects to - consider himself an Emperor by the choice of the Mexican people, and ere long he will appear in his putative dominions, accompanied by plenty of Austrian bayonets to keep his A , subjects" from suddenly ending his dynasty by his death. About .40,000 French soldiers and sailors have been employed in forcing him upon the Mexicans, and he must in future rely exclusively on military power to preserve his throne. He is just about to plunge into scenes which will make his future life as full of strife as that of his namesake Maximilian I, Emperor of Germany,who,during the latter half of the fifteenth century,lived in a_ perpetual state of war, either with France, Italy, or por tions of "Germany itself; and so far as we have any evidence, he will bring to beai no more ability than did his other namesake, the feeble, though good-natured Maximilian 11., of Germany. The violence and fraud by which Mexico has been forced to accept this Austrian Archduke for her ruler will never be forgiven by the inhabitants of that co try, and he will be forced to contend a ainst L an almost unanimous resistance, ceasingly kept up. He will never be able to collect a tax without an , attempted revo lution, and while one poitiop of lids Empire will be in 4 , peace," the rest will be in tur moil. The rebels in our Southern States will attempt to make a tool of Maximilian; but if they find they cannot rise'hitn, they will not care how soon he is killed or , exiled. PIO French and Austrian Governments will grow wea ' ry , of furnishing him men, and mo ney, and the strong probability is that our own Government will drive him back to Europe as soon as our hands are free. This new-fledged Emperor is not to be en vied, and the future reader of history will most probably see in his life the old lesson of the vanity of human ambition, and the futility of attempting to establish *any new form of monarchicalgovernment on the con tinent of North America. ' The House of Representatives, at Harris-, burg,has passed an act making all exchange tickets on City Railways good until used, anything on their face to the contrary not withstanding. This is a right and proper enactment; for the arbitrary regulation of the various companies in this city, making an exchange ticket worthless•unless used the day of its purchase has, always been considered unjust. Another railway re form is also needed. We mean a law to prevent the over-crowding of the cars. Con ductors will have their carsdriven at break neck speed, along portions of their roads where they do not expect to get many pas. sengers, and will then allow their vehicles to stand for a quarter of an.hour at a corner where fares may be picked up in abundance. Lag after A car is crammed with twice as many persons, as should be in it, the con ductor will wait until not another individual can be squeezed into the doorways or upon the platforms. Pickpockets reap some of their richest harvests in these crowded cars, and the discomfort occasioned by - . this bad system is such as almost to induce many people to walk instead of riding. Ho one can deny the great convenience of the cars, in comparison with the old-fash ioned omnibusses, but "ive might as well have them made as comfortable as possible by a regulation which would prevent three car-loads of people from squeezing into one vehicle. On previous occasions we have urged this matter upon the Legislature and upon the companies, and it would be grati fying to find that the reform had been in stituted. PIANOS.' PIALI!I,yIL LD, - and Obestnut. THE TAX FILL. The House of Representatives at Wash ington has finally passed the tax bill, on which it has long been engaged. The final vote was 102 to 33. Of course the nega tives were all- Copperheads. The Pennsyl vanians who voted against the: bill were Messrs. Ancona, Dawson, Dennison, John son, Stiles and Strouse. Mr. Coffroth and Mr. Miller, who were absent, would proba bly have voted against it. The Pennsyl vania Democrats who voted for it were Messrs. Bailey, McAllister and Randall, who deserve credit for ignoring party when the great interests of the Government and th, ke nation are concerned. We trust that she bill will now receive the earnest atten tion of the Senate and be put through as rapidly as possible. Ma. Emirs!. D. Lewis, whose splendid pic ture of “The Gates of the Susquehatafti." is one of the chief attractions of the exhibition in the Academy of the . Fine Arts, has lately finished another of scarcely less importance, which may be seen for a few days at Earle & Sons. It is called "The Wilds of Lake George,". and repre sents faithfully one of the most beautiful views on that lake. The sky, the water, the rocks, the hills with the delicate mist rising from them, the c.arefal painting in the foreground, the fine atmospherie effect—each of these will challenge admiration. Mr. Lewis has done no thing better than this picture, and we advise our readers to visit it without delay, as it will be sent to New York in a sew days. LIBERAL.-Mr. Leonard Grover, in resrinse to the appeal of the Committee on Labor, Re venue and Income, of the Great Fair, has de cided to appropriate the proceeds of both per formances at the Chestnut Street Theatre on Saturday (to-morrow) to the Fair. He has with great liberality given the receipts of a day when there is an operatic and a dramatic per formante—"Ld Dame Blanche" and "The Octoroon"—and the sum realized cannot but be a very large one. Mr. Grover's example is worthy of imitation. THE GREAT MUSICAL FESTIVAL:--By mis print in yesterday's BULLETIN, we wore made to say that the box office at the Academy of - Music, for receiving sulnCriptions to the season of grand operas for the Great Central Fair, would be opened this eilening, instead of this morning. We now initrm our readers that the office is open from 9 in the morning until 6 in the evening. We are glad to learn that a num ber of subscribers have already been obtained, and those who wish to securegood seats should apply early.. THE Cluttsr.wr COMMISSION is constantly re ceiving contributions in money from the sol diers in the Union army. To-day we saw a package containing $2lO 70 remitted from the 3d Vermont regiment, and during the past week the whole amount received from soldiers 'has - been about $5OO. Contributions from such sources are the best proof of the excellence and efficiency of the Commission. Eiessrs.

They, are TO BE REDEEMED IN COIN, at the pleature of the Government, at any period not less than ten nor more lhanforty years_ from their date, and urtit their redemption FIVE PER CENT. INTEREST WILL BE PAID IN COIN, on BOndscfnot over one hundred do.lars : nuttily. and on all other Bonds serni-annually. The interest is payable on the first days of March and September in each year.
