THE BESTOT OF THE ELEOTION.
Tbat the State Election 1b now over, meet be a source
•f satisfaction to everybody. Those who have been
elevated to office are very well satisfied of course. The
cax. didates who were not elected have no further cause
Jer anxiety, And, doubtless, experience a very
agreeable sensation of relief. Persons who betted
upon the election have either the gratification of re*
(Delving money, or the lofty and magnanimous pleasure
af paying It over. Every one now has leisure to attend
to greater and mor e important matters, such as the
selection of a new Pall Suit from Tower Hall.

the fullest and most complete in Philadelphia. Prices.
are lcw€r and nearer those of old times than for several

EVENING BULLETIN.
FRIDAY, OCTOBER M, 1866.
MEHCO.
The-sick man of this continent refuses
to take the boluses of French and Aus
trian empirical and imperial doctors; or
at least, he refuses to get well under
them. So they are about to abandon his
case, and put him in the hands of Uncle
Sam, if rumor be correct. But rumor
has so often been at fault in regard to
Mexico, that it is not safe to accept any
thing it says on the subject until it re
ceives an official sanction.
A' United States protectorate over
Mexico, after the withdrawal of Maxi
milian and his European troops, would
be a good. thing for the Mexicans,
but not particularly good for the
United ‘ States, even with the
cession of Lower California and
other parts of the Mexican republic.
There should be some guarantees that
the annexation would be made to pay,
for with the enormous debt we now have
to bear, we canncrt afford to maintain an
army and a government in Mexico, any
more than France could. There may
be some such guarantees in the plan
said to have been determined on, and
these may be revealed by President
Johnson in his annual message. Then,
too, the Senate has a word to say in
treaty-making, and the President has
shown such contempt and hatred for
the Senate, that it will prdbably sean
very closely any project prepared by him
and Mr. Seward.
THE .JOHNSON PARTE.
During the election campaign in the
States which voted on the 9th of the pre
sent month, the Copperhead •• press ex
ulted in the rather dim prospect of the
people endorsing the course of the Pre
sident by their votes, and at the same
time placingthe sealof their disapproba
tion upon Congress. As the people did
just the opposite thing, the coppery ora
cles have changed their tactics by deny
ing that the masses have any privileges
at all, and by contending for the divine
right of Presidents. In this respect
they merely imitate Mr. Johnson him
self, for that patriotic Chief Magistrate
and elegant and refined gentleman,
while upon his late extraordinary tour,
was much given to a recognition of the
majesty of the people as opposed to all
the regular constituted authorities, ex
-cept Andrew Johnson, of course. Since
the people to whom this question was
referred have responded in a manner no
less emphatic than unexpected, Mr.
Johnson has thought better of the re
ference, and intends to disregard it, or
he is very much misrepresented.
There are two classes of persons who
support Andrew Johnson. The first, and
by far the most numerous, forms the
Democratic party. The Democracy
support Andrew Johnson because he has
gone over to them, and because through
his treachery to the party that elected
him, much of the fruits of the war, and
•of the struggle at the ballot-box in 1864,
has been wasted or diverted into false
channels. They sustain Andrew Johnson
because he has relapsed into* Copper
headism, and for no other reason; they
oppose Congress as a logical necessity,
heeause Congress is largely Republican)
and because to oppose Congress is to
sustain Andrew Johnson.
The second class of advocates of An
drew. Johnson and his policy isjuadeup
of the successful Apostles of Bread and
Butter. These gentry, who have sold
out their .principles for their fodder, can
not be expeeted to have much affection
Co “P €9s -the highest branch of
which will sweep them out of the way
Thev^^f 6^’^ its comin e session.
cause thevhvni*^ 6 C „° nereBß mu °h. be
cause they love bread and butter more
and as Andrew Johnson can help them
*? he is the man they wm
etasd by. Tten thereis a section ofTS
Bread and Butter Brigade who are hum
gryandwho want tobe filled, and who
go for the great Presidential dispenser of
the coveted loaves, in hope of being
served. A sage philosopher has defined
gratitude to be a lively sense of favors to
be received; and as wily a statesman as
Bichelieu has expressed the opinion that
“hungry gratitude” is the most to be re
lied upon. These, and these only, are
the men who support Andrew Johnson
in the loyal States of the Union.
This condition of things does more or
less credit to of the parties con
cerned in it. The Democrats show their
consistency by supporting a brother
Copperhead whom chance has put
in the presidential chair, and the Bread
and Butter men are consistent with
their fixed principle of considering the
pursuit of loaves and fishes as the first
and most sacred of human duties. An
drew Johnson can take great pride in
his new party, if there is much to make
him proud in the fact that it is composed
exclusively of mean mercenaries, and of
men who only support him because heis
himself a traitor and a renegade.
It has long been our boast that Ame
rican mechanics were among the most
skillful in the world, particularly in such
branches of industry as were fitted to
meet the wants of a new country. In
machinery they have taken the front
rank; in agricultural implements they
have won a world-wide reputation; in
ship-building they leave Europe far in
the rear, and they acknowledgedly stand
foremost in all labor-saving contrivances
from apple-parers and cradle-rockers, to
patent reapers, sewing-machines and
electric telegraphs. In despite of this
well-earned reputation, there is nOw a
general complaint of a want of skillful
mechanics. There are many men who
claim to be competent workmen, but
who are in reality mere botches; while in
numerous trades that could be enume
rated , foreign artisans h ave almost entire
ly taken the place of American workmen.
The war which for a period of four
years diverted tens of thousands of young
men from their ordinary fields of use
fulness, has had some share in bringing
about this condition of things; but there
are other and potent reasons for the fall
ing ofl in the supply of skilled Ameri
can workmen, and these reasons are
eminently worthy of the attention of
statesmen and philanthrophists.
The reluctance of American boys to
learn mechanical trades, and their un
willingness to follow them after they
have been taught them, because of a de-
W. H. DUTTON.
sire to live without manual labor, is, of
course one primary cause. The spirit
of traffic in preference to toil, the ambi
tion to acquire a profession,
the greed for office, all well enough
and honorable enough—within
proper limits —tend to * create a
varied class of poor lawyers, half
starved doctors, unprincipled politi
cians and discontented and incompetent
workman.
The agitations of Traders Unions, and
other combinations, that keep trade
constantly unsettled by interfering with
the business of the employer, has much
to do with it; while eight hour laws and
other threatened restrictions, deter mas
ter workmen from taking apprentices,
and have in fact almost broken up the
old apprentice system, which always
secured a supply of skillful American
workmen, who were generally equal to
the demand.
There is yet another reason for this
falliDguff, and that is in our system of
public education. There is a growing
feeling that it is radically defective in
respect to the great object of making
boys practically useful and valuable
members of society, and its influence is
felt in making up the grand summary
of causes why skilled workmen are be
coming scarce.
As labor is the great foundation of all
wealth, so are those who toil intelli
gently the most valuable members of the
community. New England has gone
ahead of Virginia and South Carolina
just in the degree that her practical sons
have exceeded the chivalry in respeet to
patient industry and in thrift. It is
worthy of consideration whether we of
the Middle States should continue to
march shoulder to shoulder with New
England in her grand mechanical pro
gress, or relapse into a state approximat
ing the forlorn condition of the “Old
Dominion.”
Bellini’s opera of JLaSonnambvla has been
played so many times in Philadelphia that
it is hard to fill the Academy of Music when
it is produced anew. Still there was quite a
large and elegant audience at its representa
tion last evening. It was made interesting
by the debut of Miss Amelia Hauck, a very
young lady, whose child-like manner, on
e ntering the stage, won the sympathy of the
andience at once, but whose first phrases
of recitative revealed a pure, delicate so
prano voice, perfectly under command.
Her singing of the first air, “Come per me
sereno,” and the allegro, "Sovra il sen,”
proved her to be a thoroughly educated
singer, and each one was rapturously ap
plauded; Like success attended her through
out the opera, and she was repeatedly
called before the curtain.
Miss Hauck has a great deal to learn in
acting and in knowledgedge of the stage,
and her voice lacks fullness and pas
sionate expression. But these will all
come with years. Her method of «in g in E
is of the best school, and ic may reasoimoly
be predicted that she will rank nmms g the
very first singers of her time, after her
powers are matured. She was admirably
sustained by the tenor, Signor Baragli, who
has a light but delicious voice, remarkable
flexibility, an impassioned manner, and
the advantages ef youth, a handsome face
and fine figure. Signor Antonucci made a
good “Count Rodolfo,” but the part would
have been better sustained by Signor Bel
lini. The subordinate parts were well
done, and the entire performance afforded
much delight. . uea
This evening Orispino e la Comare is to
be repeated, and we advise all who want to
see an extraordinary performance to go and
see ftonconi, who ia this opera,is inimita
ble. The other parts are . also well
